Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: I Would Rather You Stab Me Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: I Would Rather You Stab Me Jian Yufei’s eyes widened in shock, “What did you say?”

“I said, can you give me ten days?” he begged.

Ten days…

Faced with his pleading tone, Jian Yufei found it impossible to heartlessly refuse.

Did they have only ten days left?

After ten days, if she still didn’t “love” him, would he truly let go of her completely?

At that moment, Jian Yufei’s feelings were complicated.

She didn’t know how to answer; it didn’t matter whether it was ten days or a year, she wouldn’t be able to give him an answer.

But if she didn’t agree, they would lose even the last chance to be together.

But… since they were going to part ways anyway, why bother with this reluctance which would only cause her more pain…

Without waiting for her response, Ruan Tianling hung his head, his eyes dimming.

He pursed his lips and said faintly, “Won’t you even grant me this last request?”

“It’s not…”

“What is it then?” the man looked up, staring intently at her as he asked.

Jian Yufei struggled to suppress all impulsive emotions and said indifferently, “I think it’s a waste of time, my attitude will still be the same after ten days. Since the outcome is the same, we might as well let go now and go our separate ways.”

Today, she had mentioned ‘going our separate ways’ twice, each time very coldly.

A cold glint flashed in Ruan Tianling’s eyes, and he lowered his gaze, “Even if the outcome is the same, I want to try one more time. Even if it’s futile, I want to grasp every possible moment to be with you.”

“Ruan Tianling, I thought you hated me, that you would punish me…”

“I do hate you! Don’t you know? The deeper the love, the deeper the hate,” Ruan Tianling met her gaze, his deep, dark eyes unexpectedly burrowing into the depths of her heart.

Jian Yufei abruptly turned her head away; if she continued, she would give herself away.

“I’m not worth your love…”

“That’s my business.”

“Wasting your time on me, you’ll only end up more disappointed and sad…”

“That’s still my business,” Ruan Tianling replied with the same firmness.

How could he be so stubborn!

Jian Yufei’s face was cold, her voice merciless, “But whether or not to agree to your request is my business!”

Ruan Tianling suddenly turned around, his back to her, his tall figure emanating a solitary and desolate sorrow.

“Yufei, I would rather you stab me once than to be so heartless.”

“…”

Then, he walked to the bedside, opened the drawer, and took out a dagger.

The dagger’s sheath was inlaid with diamonds on a carved metal base; he slowly walked to her, drawing the blade–
The snow-white, sharp edge reflected dazzlingly bright light under the crystal chandelier.

He took her hand and pressed the dagger into her palm.

Jian Yufei’s heart skipped a beat; what was he doing?!

Ruan Tianling folded her fingers around the dagger, urging her to hold it tightly.

“Stab me, and then let me give up completely! If you can’t do that, then give me ten days!”

Jian Yufei stared at him in shock, “You’re crazy!”

He was actually asking her to stab him…

Ruan Tianling pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, “I am crazy, driven crazy by you! I can’t go on hating you, so I must use this method to win you back, I am indeed a madman!”

Jian Yufei fiercely threw the dagger aside, the exquisite blade clattering to the ground!

“I won’t do it, don’t make me commit a crime!”
