Chapter 1044: Chapter 1068: Painful Torment
"You!"
Chu Zhan was fuming. Is this him shooting himself in the foot?
If he had forgotten who she was, for whom was he tormented and pained all these days?
This heartless brat.
Shi Nuan couldn’t hear Chu Zhan’s inner voice and didn’t understand the agony churning inside him. She continued to wear a mocking smile, each word stabbing at him,
"Besides, wasn’t it your wish for me to leave?"
Chu Zhan was momentarily stunned, looking at the girl’s pale, cold face, feeling somewhat chilled,
"Shi Nuan, is this how you truly see me in your heart?"
Shi Nuan shivered under his gaze, turning her face away coldly, "In my heart, you are nothing. I haven’t thought anything of you, stop being delusional."
"That’s right, you’re so ungrateful, who could ever hold a place in your heart."
Shi Nuan didn’t want to hear any more of his sarcastic talk, it was extremely uncomfortable, so she turned her back and began to walk away.
Chu Zhan swiftly caught up in a flash, grabbing her wrist, "Shi Nuan, are you giving up?"
"Let go." Shi Nuan forcefully shook him off, pulling her lips,
"What’s the point of whether I give up or not? Don’t you look down on me?
Didn’t you say I don’t deserve to be here? So me leaving doesn’t bother you, you should be happy about it and not suppress your true emotions."
Chu Zhan was really about to be driven mad, glaring at her, "Shi Nuan, how did you become like this? When I said you’re not qualified, it was because of your physical capabilities, it wasn’t personal, nor was it meant for you to bring private emotions into this!
You were never someone to give up easily. Since I’ve given you the opportunity, shouldn’t you be figuring out a way to overcome it now? Isn’t becoming the Sea Doctor your lifelong dream?"
Shi Nuan turned to look at the water, letting out a laugh, "Given me the opportunity, as if it’s some kind of gift, do I need to kneel and thank you?"
"Shi Nuan, can you not speak like that?"
Chu Zhan furrowed his brows tightly, never realizing a woman could be this difficult when being unreasonable.
"No, I can’t." Shi Nuan wiped her face, speaking quietly, "What about dreams? A person needs to have self-awareness, distinguish between dreams and reality. Look at me, I fear the water, how can I overcome it? I don’t want to waste any more time, I’m someone who easily gives up, so you can be even more disappointed in me now, I don’t care."
As she said this, she passed by Chu Zhan, attempting to leave, only to be grabbed by the waist as she brushed past.
"What, what are you doing?" She shrieked as if electrified.
"Without even trying, how do you know you can’t?"
Chu Zhan pulled a smile, and in Shi Nuan’s terrified gaze, he mercilessly pushed her directly into the water.
Accompanied by a loud splash.
Shi Nuan plunged straight into the water.
Upon hitting the water, the cold water surged from all directions, overwhelming her senses, bringing back childhood memories that made her scream in terror.
But caught off guard, she swallowed a mouthful of water, coughing frantically.
"Cough cough..." Shi Nuan gasped in agony, her small face flushed red underwater, her hands moving helplessly, "Help, help me!"
Chu Zhan stood tall on the shore, looking down at her constant flailing, and sneered, "What help? The water level is below your waist, stop acting like a dead fish, lift your head, and place your feet steadily on the ground, that’s all it takes."
