Chapter 196 Walking on Thin Ice
Xue Tao immediately boarded the cruise ship.
Yan Ye glared at him fiercely, then jumped off the speedboat, started the engine, and the speedboat sped away like an arrow skimming the water's surface.
"Young Master, Young Master, you should at least bring a bodyguard!"
Xue Tao stared at the speedboat in the distance, stamping his feet in frustration.
There was no other way but to keep the cruise ship moving at full speed.
The cruise ship that Yue Yirou was on was also heading towards M City, but at a slow speed.
After calming herself down, Yue Yirou gently pushed Lu Tingyun away.
She used to crave this embrace, but now, all that remains is disgust.
Lu Tingyun frowned slightly in displeasure, but his displeasure vanished instantly after hearing her words.
"Tingyun, I'm hungry." She touched her stomach and looked at him pitifully.
Lu Tingyun looked apologetic: "Yi Rou, it's my fault. I forgot it's lunchtime. Come, I'll take you to the restaurant to eat."
Lu Tingyun wanted to take her hand and lead her to the restaurant, but his movements stopped abruptly when his gaze fell on the wedding dress she was wearing.
"Yi Rou, there are clothes in the closet. Change out of this unsightly wedding dress first. I'll go to the room across the street to change out of this wet outfit, and then I'll wait for you outside the door."
"Okay." Yue Yirou nodded obediently. "Go change your clothes quickly, or you'll catch a cold."
Lu Tingyun was fairly satisfied with her performance and turned to leave the room.
Yue Yirou walked over, locked the door from the inside, and looked down at the wedding dress she was wearing, her expression complicated.
This is a wedding dress that Yan Ye designed for her personally. After taking it off, she doesn't know if she will ever have the chance to wear it again.
I was very reluctant to take it off, but I had to. Wearing the wedding dress, I couldn't even run fast at the crucial moment.
The wardrobe contained both dresses and casual wear. Yue Yirou chose the casual wear without hesitation, but stopped when she was about to change.
She only rejected Lu Tingyun's closeness because of the shadow cast by Yan Ye; it wasn't that she genuinely disliked or was wary of him.
If she wore casual clothes, it would precisely show her wariness of Lu Tingyun.
This will arouse his suspicion.
She wasn't sure if Lu Tingyun's preparation of these two types of clothes was a test for her, but just in case, she decided to be cautious.
She couldn't give herself away; she couldn't let him know that she no longer loved him.
Yue Yirou suddenly felt an urge to cry. She felt like she was walking on thin ice every minute and every second, and she had no idea whether she could keep her innocence in the next moment.
This feeling was just like when she went to the Starry Night Pavilion to find the jade pendant for him.
Back then, she was afraid of Yan Ye; now, she is afraid of him.
Why? Why must she endure this torment again and again?
Yan Ye, where are you?
Please save me.
I can't take it anymore.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Yi Rou, haven't you changed your clothes yet?"
It was Lu Tingyun's voice.
Yue Yirou quickly pulled herself out of her thoughts, put her casual clothes back in the closet, took out a dress to change into, and turned to the closed door, saying, "Almost there, just wait a little longer."
After quickly changing into a dress, Yue Yirou let down her hair, which was styled in a bun, and went to open the door.
For Yan Ye's sake, and for her own, she had to be strong.
The door opened, and Lu Tingyun saw Yue Yirou wearing a pale yellow dress, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
"Yi Rou, you are so beautiful." A look of amazement flashed in Lu Tingyun's eyes.
Yue Yirou lowered her eyes shyly.
Looking at her peach-blossom-like face, Lu Tingyun couldn't help but lean over and gently kiss her smooth forehead.
Yue Yirou felt a pang of panic, her face flushed, and she pretended to be very uncomfortable, saying, "Tingyun, I'm so hungry, let's go eat quickly."
"Okay, I'll take you to eat, but wait a moment."
Lu Tingyun spoke in a very gentle tone, and after finishing her sentence, she walked past Yue Yirou and into the room.
What was he doing in the room?
Yue Yirou looked puzzled, then turned around and saw Lu Tingyun walking straight towards the wedding dress she had changed out of.
What does he want to do?
She had a vague sense of unease, and when she saw Lu Tingyun go to find scissors, she finally understood what he was planning to do.
She wanted to stop it, but reason told her she couldn't.
She could only hold back her tears and heartache as she watched helplessly as Lu Tingyun used scissors to cut the wedding dress that Yan Ye had designed and customized for her into shreds.
Lu Tingyun cut with resentment, as if what she was seeing before her was not just a wedding dress, but Yan Ye.
Yue Yirou felt extremely distressed and turned her face away, unable to bear to look any longer.
"Yi Rou, come here, you can cut the rest."
Lu Tingyun's voice suddenly rang out behind her, and Yue Yirou's heart clenched violently, the pain indescribable.
She couldn't bring herself to do it, but...
After closing her eyes tightly, Yue Yirou slowly turned around and walked towards Lu Tingjun with heavy steps.
"Treat this wedding dress like Yan Ye, cut it hard, cut it with all your might, and vent all the hatred and humiliation in your heart."
Lu Tingyun shoved the scissors into Yue Yirou's hand.
Yue Yirou held the scissors, her hand trembling slightly, but only for a moment. Then she slowly tightened her grip on the scissors, picked up the wedding dress, and began to frantically cut at it.
His face was filled with resentment, but his heart was bleeding.
Yan Ye, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.
"Yes, that's it, cut hard, cut fiercely."
Lu Tingyun was very satisfied, his eyes revealing a sinister look. He stared at the scene before him, and the image of Yan Ye being hacked to pieces by a flurry of knives gradually surfaced in his mind.
One day, he will trample Yan Ye under his feet, humiliate him severely, and make him wish he were dead.
Yue Yirou was finding it increasingly difficult to cut the scissors. Lu Tingyun assumed it was because she was starving, so he reached out and snatched the scissors from her hand and began cutting frantically.
Lu Tingyun stopped cutting the fabric until it was completely unrecognizable as a wedding dress. She picked up the shredded fabric, walked to the window, pulled back the curtains, and threw it into the sea.
As Yue Yirou watched this scene, her hands, hanging by her sides, clenched into fists. She only relaxed them when Lu Tingyun drew the curtains and turned around.
"Come on, Yirou, I'll take you to lunch."
Lu Tingyun walked over, took off the sunglasses hanging on his chest, put them on Yue Yirou, and then embraced her, whose face was a little pale, and walked towards the door.
"Are you very hungry?" Lu Tingyun looked down at her, his tone full of concern.
Yue Yirou nodded gently: "Yes, I'm so hungry that my hands and feet are a little weak. I guess it's because the speedboat ride was so bumpy that it digested all the breakfast I ate."
Lu Tingyun smiled and reached out to touch her forehead: "I'm sorry you had to suffer. Later, just let go of your inhibitions and eat whatever you want. I promise I won't laugh at you."
Yue Yirou pursed her lips and tried to force a smile.
Although this cruise ship is not as luxurious as Yan Ye's, it has complete facilities and all the necessary amenities.
She noticed that this cruise ship was not the one Lu Tingyun had taken last time when they were outside.
Could this not be Lu Tingyun's?
