Chapter 251: Karma is a bitch.
“NO. You can’t decide this on your own! I refuse to accept this. Our marriage has been arranged by our parents. Therefore, you can’t cancel it without their permission!”
“HA HA HA HA. PATHETIC! Are you serious? What are you, a child? What kind of nonsense is this? Do you think my parents will object if I tell them about your incompetence? Oh, and not to mention, I’ve known for a while that my mother has had some reservations about this engagement, and considering what has happened, I’m sure she will support my decision to end this relationship. So, get real and leave before I lose my temper and beat you up right here.” Long Lingyu roared at him as her eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.
Yuan Long swallowed his saliva and stepped back as he noticed a surge of spiritual energy emanating from her body. He could tell that she was not joking and was willing to attack him if he didn’t leave right away. But despite his fear, he clenched his fists and mustered his courage before speaking again with a trembling voice.
“No, no, I refuse! Come on, Lingyu. You’re just angry. Just take some time to calm down and think about this. I know I have messed up, but it can’t be the end of us, right? We have known each other for years, and our clans have had a strong bond for generations. Isn’t it too rash to break the engagement? I’m sure if we talk about this, we can resolve any disagreement, just like old times. What do you say? I promise I will prove myself worthy of you, okay? Just give me another chance!”
Seeing this, the crowd couldn’t help but roll their eyes at him, while Lei Liwei burst into laughter.
“That’s the most hilarious and pathetic display of a man’s desperation I have ever seen in my entire life. I can’t believe he is that stubborn and dares to plead with her while everyone is watching. Oh god, I’m dying of laughter here.”
“Well, I guess I can understand how he feels about losing Long Lingyu like that.” Asher said as he still could remember the despair he felt when he was in the heart demon trial and thought that he lost Aria forever. It was an intense and painful experience that he will never forget.
Lei Liwei’s smile vanished instantly when she heard his words. She turned to look at him with a confused expression on her face. “What is that supposed to mean? Have you had such an experience in the past?”
“Let’s just say I had to suffer through the same heartbreak once, and that experience was worse than death. So, I can empathize with his pain.” He said with a distant look on his face. Then he shook his head and sighed, “But this situation is far from the same as mine, as it was his own mistake and lack of trust that led to this result. Therefore, his cries and pleas are meaningless. In the end, I can only say that he brought this upon himself, and it is his own fault. So, karma is a bitch.”
“Hmm… That’s true.” Lei Liwei nodded as she agreed with his reasoning. Then she tilted her head sideways with a mischievous smile on her face while gazing at him. “By the way, what kind of woman is she to make you suffer like that, huh?”
“Hah! That’s a good question. I’m sure you will meet her soon and see for yourself. Then you will know the answer.” Asher answered with a mysterious smile.
“I look forward to it,” Lei Liwei smirked as she returned her focus towards the ongoing argument between Long Lingyu and Yuan Long.
Meanwhile, on the stage, Long Lingyu had grown tired of his whining, and her eyes gleamed with fury as she glared at Yuan Long. “What are you trying to accomplish by acting like this? Don’t be foolish! Don’t you care about the embarrassment and shame you are bringing to our families by doing this in front of so many people? If you value your honor, then get out of here right now and never show yourself to me again, or else…”
“NO! I won’t allow this to happen. We are meant to be together, and I can’t live without you! I will prove it to you! I will show you that I am not the person you think I am, and I am more than capable of being your husband.” Yuan Long yelled as he tried to reach for her, but he froze in place when he sensed a terrifying aura coming from her body.
Her eyes glowed with a bright light, and her hair flowed around her like a flowing river, giving off a frightening aura. The very air around her trembled under the weight of her overwhelming power, which caused the audience to gasp in shock, and even the elders sitting above the stage looked down in surprise.
The most shocked was Yuan Long himself, who didn’t expect that she was going to unleash her spiritual pressure like this. His face turned pale white, and he trembled with fear as he gulped. He took a step backward as he stammered, “S…stop! You’re not being reasonable! Stop it!”
But despite his protests, Long Lingyu didn’t heed his warning. Instead, she took a step forward, closing the distance between them in an instant, and grabbed hold of his throat. He tried to resist, but it was futile, as his strength was insignificant compared to hers.
“Remember my words, Yuan Long. If you try to pursue me any further, I will make your life miserable. I promise you that, and I always keep my promises.” Then she tightened her grip, causing him to choke as he struggled to breathe. Her eyes grew colder and crueler with each passing second. “Do you understand? If so, then nod your head.”
When Yuan Long heard her, he hesitated for a moment before nodding in response, prompting her to release her grasp on him.
He fell to the ground while coughing violently as he massaged his neck and glared at her. “You will regret this, Lingyu! One day, I will make sure that you beg for my forgiveness and apologize to me.”
With a final glare, he stood up and stormed away while cursing under his breath.
