Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star

Chapter 263 Sorry

During the more than three years they were together, Zhuang Leyi was always gentle and cautious. Today, Kong Lingxi experienced his domineering side for the first time.

When the wind stopped and the rain stopped, Zhuang Leyi regained his sanity. "Kong Lingxi, I'll ask you one last time, are you really unwilling to marry me?"

Kong Lingxi, who had been tormented too much, looked weak but her tone was still firm.

"I'm sorry. I can't marry you not because you're not good enough, but because you're too good for me. You're the best sponsor, but you'll never be my husband. I don't want much. I just want to use money to give my family a better life, and give my children and nephews a higher starting point and a happier childhood than mine. I've done all of this, and my wish has come true. Although I achieved it by being your lover, I'm already very satisfied. My family was poor when I was a child, so my horizons were limited. Now I can't be a rich wife or a young lady with restrictions in every way."

She was also angry, her eyes were full of love and her face was flushed, but she said the most cruel and heartless words.

"I can quit the entertainment industry because my parents, sisters, and brothers no longer live on fishing boats. I can also continue to work hard in a place that doesn't belong to me because I still have this face that God has given me. But I can never marry you because we are not from the same world after all."

Zhuang Leyi frowned and growled, "How come we are not from the same world? Have I been dating an alien for the past three years?!"

"Because you haven't understood me in the past three years!" Kong Lingxi calmed down, "Of course, that's my problem. I haven't shown you my true self, and the same goes for you."

Indeed, Kong Lingxi has been acting the way he likes for the past three years, and Zhuang Leyi never told her anything because he felt that his girlfriend didn't have to bear too much.

"Everything I didn't tell you is negative and will bring you pressure. As a man, is it wrong not to want your girlfriend to bear the pressure with you?"

Kong Lingxi was helpless. She didn't know what else she could say to make this young man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth understand how much of an impact economic differences could have on people.

"You're right. You've been a qualified sponsor and boyfriend for the past three years. Without your protection, my life might not have been so smooth. You gave me resources and money to spend, but there wasn't much I could do. Today might be our last conversation, and I hope to tell you the truth about myself."

Zhuang Leyi looked at her steadily. Only then did he feel that he might not really know this girl with whom he had been so close for so many years.

"Although I have told you about my family's situation, I think someone like you will never understand."

He really didn't understand why someone who could barely provide for their own food and clothing was trying so hard to have children, one after another, just to give birth to a son.

Kong Lingxi continued, "With a growth experience like mine, I won't be able to cultivate a mentally healthy person. Just like shopping, it's not because I lack something, nor because I really like those luxury goods whose brands I can't even pronounce properly, but because I enjoy walking in the mall, and I can get everything easily."

Thinking back to the time when I accompanied her shopping, it seemed to be true. She was not too interested in those things. Instead, she enjoyed being served politely.

"For me, getting off the fishing boat is already a success, but I can never be as cultured, educated, well-rounded, and worldly-wise as those celebrities in your circle. I am just a vase without integrity who grew up struggling, never went to school, is vain, and shameless as someone's lover..."

Zhuang Leyi couldn't stand her evaluation of him. "You are a shameless vase that serves as someone's lover. Then what am I? A second-generation rich kid who only judges people by appearance and is greedy for beauty?"

Although he is indeed a second-generation rich man, a hopeless person who can never be helped, he would not admit that he would keep a lover.

"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant, I..."

Zhuang Leyi interrupted, "That's enough. You've said sorry too many times today. If you think this is our last conversation, please say something from the heart."

"I am sincerely sorry and thank you very much." Since she was not allowed to apologize, Kong Lingxi could only express gratitude.

"You have done so much for me, but all I can do is be grateful. Every day I am with you, I try my best to provide you with better emotional value. I hope that you are happy during the years I am with you, so that your investment in me will not be in vain."

Zhuang Leyi sneered, "You don't have to say these high-sounding words. It has nothing to do with whether I am worthy or not. To put it bluntly, you don't actually love me, right?"

Kong Lingxi was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and said firmly: "Yes, I am just fulfilling my duty as a lover."

Zhuang Leyi felt that he was simply ridiculous. The woman he had been in love with for three years was only willing to admit that she was his lover.

"You may not know this, but today is my birthday. I'm twenty-two years old."

He was counting the days and hoping to propose to her as soon as he could get the marriage certificate.

Kong Lingxi was a little surprised. She never knew Zhuang Leyi's birthday, so she had never thought about it.

Zhuang Leyi’s birthday is the anniversary of his mother Jiang Lang’s death, so he never celebrates his birthday.

"Sorry……"

"I've heard enough of your apologies."

The silence seemed to last forever. No one spoke, and no one knew what to say next.

Kong Lingxi felt that she had said everything she wanted to say. She got up from the bed and picked up her clothes from all over the room and put them on one by one.

Zhuang Leyi continued to remain silent, lying on the bed, caressing the body that he was so familiar with with his eyes.

Maybe she was right, she was just a vase, and Zhuang Leyi, who had never understood her inner self, had only loved her shell for three years.

Neatly dressed Kong Lingxi was silently packing her luggage. Her shirt dress with two buttons undone always revealed an alluring sight when she leaned over.

"Kong Lingxi, are you going to leave me?"

Zhuang Leyi's voice trembled, and it was unclear whether he was suppressing his anger or hiding his reluctance.

"I really can't marry you."

Although she didn't say sorry again, her tone was full of apology, which sounded like pity to Zhuang Leyi.

He leaned against the head of the bed, smiled, and hooked his index finger at her.

Although Kong Lingxi didn't understand what he meant, she still walked over obediently.

Zhuang Leyi grabbed her forearm and Kong Lingxi was forced to bend down.

He kissed her on the lips with a force that didn't seem like a goodbye, but rather like he wanted to tear her apart and eat her.
