The Seventh Miserable Bride
Chapter 60

"That's why I always bully you because I hate it when people think I'm gay."

"It's your behavior that makes people misunderstand. If you don't want to be misunderstood, you should tell them loudly that you're not gay. If you're too lazy to explain so many times, you can announce it on TV. The content of the announcement could be: I, Sebastian Simons, don't share a bed with a woman because I hate women. But I am definitely not gay. I welcome the professionals to verify this."

After making fun of him, Yasmine Taylor covered her mouth and laughed out loud. Sebastian turned over in annoyance and grabbed her neck. "You're getting bolder. How dare you make fun of me? Believe it o not, I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish."

"Please don't. I was just kidding."

Yasmine pursed her lips but still could not stop laughing. Seeing her smile, Sebastian raised his eyebrows and said, "You like laughing, uh? Well, I'll make you laugh more!"

He put his hands under her armpit and tickled her. Yasmine laughed so hard she was out of breath and then rolled back and forth on the beach. Finally, she had no choice but to raise her hands in surrender. "I surrender. I surrender. I promise I won't do it again."

Sebastian then let her go and warned her by pointing at her forehead, "If you dare doubt my sexual orientation ever again, I'll find ten eunuchs to show you some appreciation."

Yasmine was lying on the beach, panting heavily. It was the first time she got along so well with Sebastian. She was so happy that she could not stop smiling. "You are such a vicious man. It's not easy to find even one eunuch in this day and age, and you want to get ten?"

"If I want, I can bring you time-traveling."

Sebastian closed his eyes and answered lazily.

"If you really have that ability, then take me back to the Yuan Dynasty. I want to look for Zhang Wuji." Yasmine was into Chinese Wuxia because she had a Chinese friend when she was younger, so she knew the character. Somehow, Sebastian had also read these stories when he was a child.

Yasmine spoke in a soft voice.

"Why are you looking for him?"

"I had a crush on him when I was a child."

"Puff!"

Sebastian smiled snappily and said, "Why did you have a crush on a person who was so fickle in love."

"How was he fickle? He was just more popular around women, but the only person he ever loved in his heart was Zhao Min."

"You're wrong. The person he loved was Zhou Zhiruo." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"You're the one who's wrong. He had never loved that witch." Yasmine turned to him and said, "At the end of the novel, Zhou Zhiruo asked Zhang Wuji who he really loved among Xiao Zhao, Zhu Er, and Zhao Min. Zhang Wuji sighed for a moment and remembered that he had asked himself the same question. At that time, he felt that it would be great if he could stay with the four ladies. However, as things changed, Xiao Zhao went somewhere far away, Zhu Er passed away and Zhou Zhiruo joined the enemy. Only Zhao Min stayed by his side. Although there were misunderstandings between them, he had never forgotten about her. Zhou Zhiruo's existence made him question his love for Zhao Min, but when Zhao Min left him, he realized that he couldn't live without her. So, he had found the answer. He respected Zhou Zhiruo, he was grateful for Zhu Er, he felt pity for Xiao Zhao, but for Zhao Min, he loved her.

Sebastian suddenly opened his eyes and asked her meaningfully, "Did you analyze it by yourself? Or did Zhang Wuji tell you that?"

Yasmine did not dare to look directly into his eyes, because she would feel flustered when she looked at him.

"It's my own analysis, but it's also a fact."

Sebastian sighed and suddenly said in a lonely tone, "Does every woman have such a dream when they were young? To marry Zhang Wuji, who was like a hero?"

"Hey, did anyone else have a crush on him besides me?"

Sebastian was silent. After a long time, just when Yasmine thought that he was asleep, he said slowly, "I once knew a woman who was crazily infatuated with superman when she was a child."

Yasmine's heart skipped a beat. She knew, without even asking him, that the woman must be Abigail Tanner because Madam Simons once said that Abigail was the only woman that he was willing to love and be close with.

"It's not that superman was too outstanding. It's just that every girl has a princess dream. It doesn't matter who the hero is. What's important is that they all appear in the age that girls are longing to be loved." "What about now? Do you still long for it?"

Yasmine curled her lips and said, "No, I've stopped longing for it since long ago."

"Then why do you want to see superman?"

"To make things difficult for you. I know that he's just a fictional character. Even if you really have the ability to time-travel, it would be impossible for you to find him."

"That's why you stopped loving him? After knowing that he's just a fictional character."

"It's not that I stopped loving him, it's just that I don't want to have a princess dream anymore."

Yasmine stared at the stars all over the sky and said with realization, "I remember when we used to feel sad for any star-crossed lovers in fairy tales whenever we looked at the starry sky over our heads... Now even though the starlight of the night still filled our hearts, but we've grown up and no longer believe in fairy tales..." Be it superman or any other prince charming, they were just fairy tales.

Sebastian was right. Tiffany Simons was crying and making a fuss the night before, as though she wanted to cut off the relationship with her brother, but the next day, she resumed talking and laughing. She did not remember anything, as if there had been no dispute at all.

"Yasmine, my brother's birthday is the day after tomorrow." Tiffany reminded.

Yasmine was busy with her work and was ready to go out. She nodded, "Yes, I know."

"So, you..."

"I'll see what I can do."

Richie had just called her and brought her ID card, asking her to get it from him as soon as possible. So, she did not have time to talk much with her sister-in-law and went out in a hurry.

"Hey, I haven't finished. Why are you leaving..."

Yasmine came to the appointed place, where Richie had been waiting. He handed the ID card to her and asked, "How are things going here?"

Yasmine lowered her head. "I'm sorting it out."

Although she said so, she was secretly thinking of a way to destroy the evidence, which posed a threat to her uncle, in Uncle Richie's hands.

It would be easy for her to break off the marriage relationship with Sebastian Simons, but she did not want to do so, not in the past nor the present. In the past, she wanted to take advantage of Sebastian Simons, but now... she had fallen in love with him.

Obviously, Richie was not satisfied with her answer. His face darkened and he said, "It's just a divorce, do you need such a long time to arrange it?"

"I have reasons for everything I do. I thought that you would understand."

"I used to, but now, you're hard to understand. I don't understand."

"Then don't push me so hard. At least give me some time to sort it out."

Richie sneered and said, "I don't know if I am giving you time to sort it out or think about how to deal with me."

He read Yasmine's mind and she seemed a little uneasy. "You worry too much. You've helped me out so much, I've never thought of betraying you."

"It's best if it is true."

Richie's eyes reflected a purposeful look, one of comfort and also of warning.

"I'm going to the washroom."

Yasmine felt a little uncomfortable. She was just a weak woman. No matter how strong she looked like on the outside, she still had her weak spot. What's more, she was not only facing Richie Lind but also other people.

After washing her face with cold water, she returned to the table. Richie pointed to her mobile phone at the table and said, "There was a phone call and I answered it." She frowned and quickly checked her phone record. Her face instantly darkened and she asked angrily, "What did you tell him?"

"Don't worry. I just said that he called the wrong number and didn't say anything that I shouldn't say."

Richie took a sip of tea and did not care about it at all.

"How could you simply pick up someone's phone call? Do you know that this is a violation of my privacy?"

Yasmine was really angry.

"What's wrong with me answering a phone call for you when you're not around? Maybe the reason why you're angry is not that I answered your call, but because of who called?"

"What are you trying to say? Even if I was away, you should not have answered my phone call. And you even told him that he called the wrong number? How should I explain it to him? Uncle Richie, you let me down!"

Richie slammed the porcelain cup on the table and said, "Don't think I don't know anything. Two days ago, you went up and down the elevator dozens of times in the New World Mall in T City while hugging him. Do you dare say that you don't have any feelings for him?"

There was a shock in Yasmine's eyes. For the first time, she felt that this person in front of her was extremely scary because he knew her so well, it was as if he was her shadow.

The two of them argued for a long time before Yasmine left angrily. Everything that happened was witnessed by Sebastian who was in the opposite cafe. Although he could not hear what they were talking about, it was not difficult to tell from their expressions that they were quarreling.

Odisha Street was full of the cafe. There were at least a dozen of them. Coincidentally, Sebastian bumped into Yasmine here today, but she did not notice him because her mind was preoccupied.
