Yu Zhe looked like he had been punched. His expression looked bad as though he had been humiliated.
After being lectured by Yin Shaojie, he thought carefully about it and felt that this was a little ridiculous. 50 million was a large sum. Would the person really honor his promise and pay the money after he had done his part?
However, what if the person didn’t pay up?
Suddenly, Yu Zhe felt a flush of terror entering his heart!
He looked at Mu Xiaoxiao in shock as shivers went through his body and his heart ran cold.
Luckily, she was fine…
If anything had happened to her, he didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.
However…
Yu Zhe lowered his head and descended into silence. His eyes held an undispellable shadow and pain.
However, if he didn’t have that sum of money, his mom and dad would be chased out of the Yus…
He clenched both his fists, which were lying by his side.
However, what if he could really get that sum of money?
If someone had asked him if he regretted his actions… If he had regretted saving Xiaoxiao… If he hadn’t saved Xiaoxiao, would the plan have succeeded? The original plan of the mysterious person was only to torture Xiaoxiao.
He wouldn’t regret it.
Yin Shaojie released his hands and came back to his senses. He said to Yin Shaojie, “That person gave me an advance of one million. Even though it’s only a drop in a bucket, I was… indeed taken in by him.”
Yin Shaojie looked at him in disdain. “One million? One million to take you in? A mere one million could buy your betrayal? That’s cheap!”
If he had known earlier, he would have given this guy a million to stay away from Xiaoxiao!
Yu Zhe’s head hung lower and lower, consumed by shame.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of a chair scraping against the floor.
Yu Zhe knew that Mu Xiaoxiao had stood up. He was a little nervous, and even though he felt like he had no face to look at her, he still lifted his head and looked at her in anticipation.
Would she… forgive him?
Even though he didn’t dare to expect her forgive him, since he did betray her, but…
Yu Zhe knew that he was really shameless, but his heart still hoped that she could forgive him.
“Xiaoxiao…” He looked at her and called out.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him. Her face was calm as she said, “Thank you for telling me this. I got the answers I wanted.”
I know why you betrayed me now.
However…
Mu Xiaoxiao’s gaze was a little cold as she said, “However, this doesn’t mean that I will forgive you. I will never forgive you, ever.”
Because betrayal could never be forgiven.
The stone had been set the moment he chose to betray her.
I can understand your difficulties, but I apologize for not being able to accept your betrayal.
Upon hearing her words, Yu Zhe’s expression became stiff, and there was an unspeakable sorrow in his eyes.
She said… that she would never be able to forgive him.
Mu Xiaoxiao inhaled deeply and lifted her head as thought she didn’t want to reveal her feelings on her face. She said, “Take care of your wounds. I’m leaving.”
After that, she left the room with lingering words of concern.
Even though Yin Shaojie still had some things that he wanted to interrogate him on, he was a little worried about Mu Xiaoxiao. Thus, he only shot a cold glare at Yin Shaojie and followed her out hastily.
Yu Zhe was left alone on the bed, in the empty room.
He felt really… fearful, as though he had lost something important.
Yu Zhe blinked and looked around, unable to control his emotions and the tears in his eyes.
Tears slid down his face.
