Chapter 184 - Mounting Resolve (2/2)

Lei Xing sighed again and angrily shoved another piece of chicken in her mouth.

{...Hey, bracelet, what do you think about that?... It sounds awful, doesn't it? -_-)...}

No response. Lei Xing pouted, the bracelet had been ignoring her all this time.

{...Hey...Hey! Are you going to keep ignoring me too?...}

{...*...}

{...- _ -)... Aren't you taking this too personal?... It's my life, not yours -_-)'...}

No response.

Lei Xing sighed and continued eating. She honestly could not believe herself, she had basically just spent two days zoning out and staring at a stupid wall. She had not even been thinking about anything...most of the time. And honestly, it was draining and stupid and she was tired of it.

The Emperor was obviously a professional at passive-aggressive and Lei Xing was not even a novice. This situation was depressing and driving her crazy.

Normally she would never bother with people like this and would have completely thrown them out of her mind. But she could not do it this time...She tried, she really tried. But her thoughts kept wandering over to him, replaying the hurt expression he left her with, his departing back, all the time they spent together...It was driving her crazy and depressing her soul.

She tried not to care. It was normally easy for her to turn off her emotions, but she was having a hard time this time and it honestly scared her. She tried not to care...but she did.

Lei Xing stopped eating and sighed, and started picking at her food again, flicking rice grains randomly, focusing on each grain and sending them off into other plates with a deep level of focus. After flicking a few grains, Lei Xing stopped and frowned down at her bowl of rice.

{...I'm behaving like a child...He's behaving like a child too! A.d.u.l.ts talk out problems rather than carry out passive-aggressive stunts...Well, I do know of some petty ass people though, so this isn't too bad. Honestly, this isn't even bad at all, Can't exactly complain when someone's being this nice to you. You'll be an as***le to complain...

...*sigh* Okay, so he's not angry - Okay, maybe not too angry...So let's just go...What if he sends me away? Or ignores me to my face?! That would be - No, no that would be great actually. It would DISINTEGRATE every and any atom of feelings I have towards him...So I say it's a good investment...Yes, it is!...}

Lei Xing took a deep breath, dropped her chopsticks and stood up with resolve.

{...I'm going!..}
