Xin Yi didn't understand why she felt lack of confidence in whatever she wanted to say in front of Tang Jinteng?
When he is not around, she will feel that his position and ideas are wrong, but when talking to him head-on, she can't explain it.
He looked at Tang Jinteng blankly, biting his lip in annoyance.
After a while, she slid off his body and made a muffled sound.
"When I'm with you, I feel like I'm getting more and more stupid, and I can't even speak anymore."
Tang Jinteng rubbed her face, "What are you thinking about? Just listen to me. Can I still hurt you? Huh?"
"But you won't let me go back to Qingcheng, and you won't allow me to study abroad..." Xin Yi said in a low voice.
She never thought about continuing her studies after graduating from college, at least not about studying for graduate school in the country.
If she continues to study, she will go abroad to get gold. Many masters have foreign academic qualifications. She really wants to take a step forward. Is she destined to stop here?
Tang Jinteng held her hand and said, "You can go back to Qingcheng, and stay there occasionally. As for studying abroad, we'll talk about it later, eh?"
"This is stalling me again, isn't it? I will study abroad in the future, and I have never thought about studying till I grow old." Xin Yi muttered, not daring to look at him.
Tang Jinteng let go of his hand and said coldly, "There is another option. You can do whatever you want. None of us can hinder the other."
Xin Yi's face turned pale, she looked at him, bit her lip, and said these words again. Does he know that these words are very hurtful?
"Tang Jinteng, you forced me again..."
"I'm not forcing you. If I force you, will I give you the right to choose?" Tang Jinteng answered in a deep voice.
"Strong words." Xin Yi turned and walked away.
Tang Jinteng didn't make a sound and sat there silently. It was undoubtedly impossible for him to give in.
Xin Yi stood outside the room, leaning against the wall.
When she went downstairs, she was told by Aunt Tang that she didn't mind how Aunt Tang eliminated her. Tang Jinyuan had a frank personality and had no ill intentions. She just didn't want others to laugh at her.
Tang Jinteng walked out not long after, and looked sideways at her standing by the door. His face immediately sank, and he pulled her into his arms.
"You're still angry now, huh?"
"I'm not angry, I just want to be quiet for a while and don't want to argue with you." Xin Yi pressed her face against his chest, her voice a little muffled.
"Fighting? It seems that you have been wronged, right?" Tang Jinteng asked back.
"No..." Xin Yi raised his eyes and saw the word "unhappy" engraved on Tang Jinteng's face. Xin Yi had a headache and pulled down his clothes.
"Can you please stop being so stingy? You put so much pressure on me. I don't know how to adapt to this kind of life. I have never thought about staying in the capital or studying here for graduate school..."
Before Xin Yi finished speaking, Tang Jinteng's mood rose again. He let go of her and raised his voice.
"I gave you a better choice. Didn't you plan to escape from me after graduation from the beginning? I'm giving you a chance now. Either stay with me, be obedient, and do as I arranged. Or,
Take two shots!"
Xin Yi looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
Biting his lip, he exhaled for a long time, "You are determined that I can't live without you, so you bully me like this..."
Xin Yi couldn't control it, turned around and lay on the wall, covering her head and crying.
When Tang Jinteng saw Xin Yi acting like that, his heart tightened with anger and pain, and his face dropped.
He stepped forward, gently held her in his arms from behind, and lowered his voice.
"What does it matter where you live? As long as I'm here, what difference does it make? As for studying abroad, don't think about it anymore. I can't guarantee that my body and mind will still be loyal to you when you're not around. I don't believe you're not around either.
When you are with me, you won’t mess around behind my back..."
Xin Yi immediately turned to look at him and shook his head:
"I won't, you believe me, I won't mess around, I won't do anything sorry for you, we are married, right? I won't..."
"You can run away with a wild man, so why should I believe that you won't do it behind my back?" Tang Jinteng's words were harsher, and a bright knife penetrated directly into it.
In her heart.
Xin Yi's face was pale, and her dark eyes were looking straight at him.
Tang Jinteng straightened her body, kissed her face, and whispered: "Be good, okay?"
"You..." The corners of Xin Yi's lips trembled, and tears kept rolling in her eyes.
What he just said was a disguised way of accusing her of misbehavior and still caring about the past.
Xin Yi covered her aching heart, buried her head and asked in a low voice, "If you mind so much, why do you want to marry me?"
This marriage was his own, and he couldn't let go and insisted on getting married. What was he thinking?
Tang Jinteng stared at her with dark eyes and pushed her hair away from her face.
"What do you want to say, huh?"
Xin Yi took a breath, looked up at him, smiled reluctantly, and shook his head:
"No, it seems like... there is no way to communicate with you... Haha, forget it, just do whatever you want me to do, I can agree..."
When she can't bear it anymore, divorce...she will consider it.
Tang Jinteng pinched her chin, "What were you thinking, huh? Are you disappointed in me and found out that this man is not as good as you thought? Are you thinking about another man?"
"Are you really..." Xin Yi blocked his hand, explaining that it was useless, and looked at him angrily, as if running away, she didn't want to quarrel.
Tang Jinteng's heart tightened and he took hold of her wrist again. Xin Yi reacted a little fiercely and threw his hand away and said loudly:
"You are really unreasonable, don't touch me again!"
She quickly took a step back and looked at him, her eyes filled with anger, and she was trying her best to hold back her unstable emotions. She pressed her chest that was rising and falling violently, and looked up at him.
"I'm sorry, don't be angry, I'm in a bad mood."
After Xin Yi finished speaking, she quickly ran downstairs. Tang Jinteng had a sullen face. Both of them were in bad moods at this time. Tang Jinteng knew that he shouldn't force her, but if he didn't pressure her, how could she be obedient?
Tang Jinteng stood for a while and then followed him downstairs. For a man of his age, his wife is only twenty years old. He can't help but hang around his wife and keep an eye on her. Is he relieved?
Didn't he mean to hurt her? What he said was wrong? She did have a bad record. How much effort did he put into bringing people close to him? How could he be careless?
Tang Jinteng went downstairs and didn't see Xin Yi. He was stunned and asked his sister:
"Where's the little guy?"
"I ran out crying." Tang Jinyuan said calmly.
"You didn't stop me?" Tang Jinteng's face was completely dark, and his heart immediately started to twitch.
Tang Jinyuan rolled her eyes and said, "Third brother, how much salary do you offer me to help you look after your baby bump?"
Tang Jinteng glanced at the eldest lady and went out directly.
Zhang Bin poked his head out of the kitchen, "Did they quarrel again?"
