Chapter 141: Without Him, We Might Be Friends!

Actually, Jian Dan only discovered this subsequently.
Perhaps it was because Zhong Tianhao was her first boyfriend, so she was ignorant about many things.
At that time, she thought that she liked him. But they just got on well, that’s all.
Now that she thought about it… Although she was very happy when she and Zhong Tianhao were together, the feeling was more like that of chums.
She only realized that after she got together with Chu Liyuan. The feeling of being together with Chu Liyuan was completely different from the feeling of being with Zhong Tianhao.
When she was with Zhong Tianhao, she was very happy. They would fool around, talk, and help each other.
However, when she was with Chu Liyuan, her heart would beat like a jackhammer, her face would blush, and she would have difficulty breathing. Her body temperature would rise, and she would even look forward to all physical contact with Chu Liyuan.
Moreover, when she was with Zhong Tianhao, Qin Ron’s name would always pop out of his mouth. At that time, she did not pay much attention to it, but now that she thought about it… Perhaps even he himself was not aware of the feelings he had for Qin Ron.
Now that she thought about it, they were really more like friends. That was why they could talk about everything under the sun.
Zhong Tianhao had never liked his family interfering too much in his life.
Since he was young, he had lived according to his parents’ arrangements. As he grew older, rhe rebelliousness in his heart gradually revealed itself.
When he found out that they were going to interfere with his marriage, he exploded.
The rebelliousness in his heart clouded him. Even if he liked Qin Rou, the mentality of not wanting to be manipulated by his family had blinded his heart. That was why he did not and could not realize his true feelings.
“He cares about me? How is that possible?!1‘
“We’ll know once we verify it.”
“Verify?”
Qin Rou did not understand why Jian Dan did this. Perhaps Qin Rou still harbored fantasies about Zhong Tianhao and she also wanted to know if she had a place in Zhong Tianhao’s heart.
Jian Dan called Zhong Tianhao…
“Hello!”
“Little Dan…”
Zhong Tianhao did not expect to receive a call from Jian Dan.
“About Qin Rou…11
“Little Dan, 1 apologize for what Qin Rou did. She’s actually not a bad person.”
Zhong Tianhao explained immediately as soon as Jian Dan said her name.
“Don’t you hate her? Why are you speaking up for her now?”
Jian Dan had already turned on the speakerphone. Qin Rou could hear everything Zhong Tianhao said to Jian Dan.
“I know. She’s done a lot of things to hurt you, but I grew up with her. 1 know she’s not like that. She used to be a cute and kind girl.”
“Are you saying that I shouldn’t blame her and should understand her instead?”
“No, no, no! That’s not what I meant. What I meant was that the reason why she became like this is mostly because of me.”
“Therefore, I should bear the responsibility for all of this.”
“You’ll bear it? What right do you have to bear it for her?”
“Because I’m her husband and the only family she has now.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Rou s face was already covered in tears. She had never known that she still had a place in Zhong Tianhao’s heart.
“But so what? You don’t love her, and you didn’t marry her willingly. Isn’t it better to take this opportunity to get rid of her completely?”
“I’ve always thought that I didn’t have any romantic feelings for her. So although I married her, I’ve always treated her coldly.”
“However, when this incident happened, I realized that she had always had a very important place in my heart.”
“My heart aches at the thought that I might lose her forever.”
“Then what am 1 to you?”
“I think you realized before I did that our relationship wasn’t love. That’s why you let go so coolly. Isn’t it?”
“Do you finally understand your feelings for Qin Rou now?”
“Yes! Unfortunately, it’s too late. Not only did it hurt her, but it also hurt you.”
“It’s good that you know! What are your plans now?”
“Qin Rou committed offenses and should be punished by the law. I’ll wait for her.”
Jian Dan hung up. “Did you hear that?”
“You…”
“Actually, what you witnessed just now was the way Zhong Tianhao and I interact.11
“When we were together, we could talk about anything good or bad- without any fear.”
“Lovers would want to show only their best side to each other and hide their worst.”
“However, perhaps because both of us had never been in a relationship before, we thought it was love!”
“He also finally found an excuse to avoid you.”
“You knew all along?”
“I only realized it after I got together with Uncle. The feeling of being with Zhong Tianhao is completely different.”
“Then why didn’t you say anything?”
Jian Dan rolled her eyes silently… “Please, I’ve told you many times, okay? You’re the one who keeps treating me as an imaginary enemy and won’t listen at all!”
“That seems to be the case! Hehe! Thank you so much!”
“Hey, don’t smile at me. It’s a little scary!”
“Haha! 1 think if it weren’t for Zhong Tianhao, we would definitely be very good friends.”
“Save it! I’m not tired of living yet! ”
“Also, don’t misunderstand. Just because I did all this doesn’t mean that I forgive you.”
“I remember everything you did to me!”
“No wonder. So you want me alive to make it up to you!”
“Don’t worry, I will!”
Save it.. I’ll thank my lucky stars if you don’t harm me!
