The movie theater’s business was bleak, with only a few scattered custors.
The seats could be freely chosen, so they casually picked so seats towards the back and sat down.
Li Yan looked around, puzzled, "Are there always so few people watching movies?"
"How would I know?" Gu Tong shrugged and said, "It’s my first ti here too."
"I thought you won would often co."
Li Yan leaned back lazily in his chair, speaking nonchalantly.
"You won?"
Gu Tong keenly picked up on the wording, sothing was up.
"Who’s ’you won’?"
When it ca to such topics, Qiu Xue was the first person to pop into Gu Tong’s mind.
"My cousin."
In the past, Zhang Wenjing often clamored for Li Yan to accompany her to a movie, but he always refused.
"So did you accompany her?"
Zhang Wenjing was indeed relentless, using her cousinly identity to make unreasonable demands all the ti.
Just thinking about it made Gu Tong furious.
"Coincidentally, it’s also my first ti here."
It was obvious he hadn’t noticed Gu Tong’s jealousy, and was in a rather foul mood himself.
Their marriage really wasn’t blessed by others, and those who wanted to destroy it ca one after another, endlessly.
Gu Tong’s thoughts drifted far away, her mood plumted to rock bottom, "I heard... that your mother once wanted to marry your cousin to you..."
"How do you know?"
Li Yan was a bit surprised, not many people knew about this, and no one could have possibly told Gu Tong.
She actually knew, she had truly been underestimated.
"Answer my question first." Gu Tong demanded seriously.
"We’re just cousins."
This was a question that needed to be explained.
The answer matched her expectations perfectly.
Yet Gu Tong still felt uncomfortable inside.
"You don’t like it?"
Li Yan’s originally handso face carried a hint of probing, his keen perception unexpectedly worked at this mont.
"You’re my man."
Any female getting involved with Li Yan would make her unhappy.
Just imagining it made her extrely distressed.
"When we were newlyweds, you said that our marriage was just a formality, that we didn’t need to care too much. Have you changed your mind?" Li Yan’s gaze was dark and unpredictable, his eyes were silent like a still pond, the question he suppressed for so many days finally ca out of his mouth.
Gu Tong felt like she was struck by lightning, mories she had forgotten were forcibly awakened.
These days, she was imrsed in the joy of rebirth, neglecting the most important matter.
"What outco do you want?"
No wonder Li Yan was always so unpredictable, everything suddenly made sense.
"Do I have a say in our marriage?"
The theater gradually fell into a deepened gloom, Li Yan’s low and hoarse voice blended with the eerie music, darkness shrouding his face, obscuring his expression.
"Maybe we have a misunderstanding."
Clearly, their fragile relationship had already shown cracks.
But Gu Tong had no idea how to nd it.
Li Yan restrained his emotions, pretended to watch the movie calmly, and said, "Maybe."
The movie started, but Gu Tong no longer had the mood to enjoy it, her heart filled with indescribable emotions, but more than that, with self-bla and regret.
When they were newlyweds, Gu Tong was convinced that Li Yan didn’t like her, so she cruelly used words to hurt him, attempting to protect her own vulnerable self.
But throughout, she had never once asked Li Yan’s true feelings, nor had she ever asked if he loved her...
The one who might have destroyed their marriage wasn’t Qiu Xue, but herself.
