Chapter 665: 665: I Never Thought of Leaving You

Is marriage sacred?

For people from later generations, perhaps half of them would answer no, as marriage and divorce are too commonplace.

It is the same for Qiao Xiaomai.

What is marriage?

Her shitty father personally told her that marriage is a tomb.

So, in her mind, marriage isn’t sacred, hence she got married without any fanfare or ceremony.

As long as the person she married was the right one, that was enough.

Now that there is an irreconcilable conflict with the Tong Family, well then, they might as well get divorced, it’s no big deal.

But after the divorce, she definitely won’t cut off ties with Tong Sanlang.

So today, acting out of annoyance, she blurted out the word divorce without really thinking.

This careless remark of hers is like a sharp sword to Tong Sanlang, brutally stabbing into his body.

This young man has placed much more importance on her and their marriage than she had anticipated…

What was Tong Sanlang’s mistake?

A seventeen-year-old boy caught between his family and her.

He couldn’t choose his family, with such a family, he could only silently bear it.

Unless he cuts off relations.

But under Tong Sanlang’s circumstances, he can’t cut off. Comparatively speaking, the Sun Family is a nightmare, but Zhang Family and Tong Xingda treated Tong Sanlang quite well.

Nor does Tong Tiehu allow him to cut off plain ties.

So, he can only be a sandwich filling now, sandwiched between her and his family, getting a rough time from both sides.

Qiao Xiaomai sighed quietly, turned around, and looked at Tong Sanlang.

Tong Sanlang stood about a meter away from her, emanating a melancholic aura, and his pitch-black eyes even slightly reddened.

Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but clench her lips, “I’m sorry.”

“Those words about divorce, I really didn’t mean it. The main reason is, once we are divorced, they’re no longer my elders, they’re strangers to me. Then they won’t have the right to instruct me. We can live however we want to.”

“I never thought about leaving you.”

“I love you.”

I love you.

This is the most popular declaration of love and affection in different spaces and times.

As these words came out, a layer of mist immediately covered Tong Sanlang’s slightly reddened eyes. He strode forward, stretched out his arms, and encircled Qiao Xiaomai in his embrace.

Holding her tightly.

His voice choked up a bit, “I never thought about leaving you either.”

“I love you, too.”

Having lived for seventeen years, what’s the most terrifying thing he experienced?

That moment just now.

When Qiao Xiaomai mentioned the word divorce.

It felt as if something had choked off his breath, causing him difficulty in breathing.

He was never so heartbroken even when the treasure was discovered.

“I’m sorry.” Qiao Xiaomai raised her hand to pat his back and apologized again, “I won’t say those words again.”

“And don’t ever have such thoughts.” Tong Sanlang emphasized, “When I think about you having such thoughts, I wish I could tie us together with a rope. Wherever you go, I follow.”

Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai imagined that scene and her nose turned sour without warning, “Fool, the matchmaker god has tied our love thread long ago, it’s invisible and untouchable, but no one can cut it.”

In this life, it is Tong Sanlang.

Despite his terrible family, she never thought about letting go, never.

She might as well accept it.

Just face whatever is coming, no matter who comes next, no matter how uncomfortable Tong Sanlang is being sandwiched in the middle, she won’t back down anymore.
