Chapter 786: She took it seriously

The expression on Ding Xiaoyu's face instantly turned cold, and the light in her eyes dimmed bit by bit.

Was everything he said true?

Then wasn't he just acting?

Although he didn't say directly that he was acting, these words already indicated that meaning.

Ding Xiaoyu's face looked somewhat unpleasant, but she took a breath and still said slowly, "Although we walked like this before Rong He Ji came, you didn't treat me like this in front of Rong He Ji, so you leaving first just now made me feel a great sense of disparity. I just want to ask you one thing now: were you acting in front of Rong He Ji?"

"You didn't genuinely want to treat me that well; you only chose to cooperate with him because Rong He Ji said he wanted to take me away, right? If that's really the case, then just say it directly; I don't like beating around the bush, I like speaking directly."

"After all, beating around the bush isn't satisfying at all; it's more interesting to just say it directly, so we won't have more misunderstandings."

Ding Xiaoyu said what was on her mind.

But her voice had no warmth; it seemed she was truly heartbroken.

Chu Tian felt very puzzled.

They had been like this before.

It was just that because Rong He Ji said those things, he chose to act.

Since Rong He Ji had already left, shouldn't they return to how they were?

Could it be that they had to keep acting?

He really didn't understand Ding Xiaoyu's train of thought.

Seeing that Chu Tian didn't speak, Ding Xiaoyu's brows furrowed tightly, and her face became extremely unpleasant, "Why aren't you saying a word now? If it's true, why don't you dare to tell me directly?"

"Why are you beating around the bush? What you said just now didn't indicate it directly; I don't like you speaking like that, I only like you to say things directly."

"So if you have anything on your mind, just tell me directly. Only by telling me directly will our relationship not become so stiff."

Her expression was extremely serious, and she didn't even blink while speaking.

It seemed she truly wanted to know his answer.

Since that was how she felt, he should say it.

There was no need to hide it.

What was there to hide? Wouldn't it be better to just say it?

Even if Ding Xiaoyu didn't understand, he still had to say it.

It was impossible for him to say nothing just because Ding Xiaoyu didn't understand.

If he said nothing, Ding Xiaoyu would only be even angrier.

Thinking of this, Chu Tian said slowly, "Actually, our relationship was quite ordinary before this; after all, we haven't known each other for a long time, so we didn't get along that well."

"Besides, after He Ji came here and said those disrespectful things to you, I really couldn't watch it anymore. Moreover, as a man, I should protect you, so I chose to stand up and say those things."

"Now that Rong He Ji is not here, I think we should return to how we were. I don't know what you are thinking, but this is my own thought."

That was why he didn't wait for Ding Xiaoyu when he left.

After all, they were originally like this.

It was impossible for anything to change just because they acted in this play. ### CHAPTER 787
