“It doesn’t matter to me whether you have or not.” Bo Hancheng said coldly.
“But it is important to me! Bo Hancheng, I will not let you down. How could I let you down?” Luo Zheng retorted anxiously, wanting to get near him and leap into his arms.
After all, Mr. Bodyguard was being cold and aloof now, which was to her displeasure… Perhaps, she would only feel safe when she hugged him and felt his warmth.
“Luo Zheng, I said, don’t come here! Stay away from me… ”
Bo Hancheng’s eyebrows furrowed into a frown and he hollered again in a bid to warn her.
Regardless of how strong Luo Zheng was, she still could not help but feel hurt upon hearing this. Tears welled up in her eyes and she stared at him before asking, “Why? I don’t get it… ”
I’m not a virus or bacteria, must he be so disgusted with me!?!
She looked just like a little pet that had fallen out of favor with her owner. She was soft, adorable and lovable.
However, Bo Hancheng glanced at her coldly and continued aloofly, “Because I find you filthy!”
I find you filthy… I find you filthy… I find you filthy…
The short sentence was like a dagger that pierced through Luo Zheng’s heart. Luo Zheng’s pupils constricted vigorously and she kept her eyes wide open while her face turned pale.
The daunting memories of her previous life replayed in her mind again.
“Luo Zheng, do you know why I refuse to touch you? It’s because, I find you filthy!”
Whenever she wanted to be close to Xi Mubai in private, his answer would always be the same. As for others, especially men, they would often just criticize her without restrictions.
“Luo Zheng? Heiress of a wealthy family!?! She’s just a filthy woman who’s only fit to be a plaything! Who would want to marry a promiscuous woman like her?”
That was one of Luo Zheng’s inner demons which she felt shackled to. It was also her weakness. After her rebirth, she tried her best not to think about it and when facing others, she could pretend by putting on a smile… However, she was now facing Bo Hancheng and not anyone else. He was Mr. Bodyguard!
He was right in front of her.
What did Mr. Bodyguard say? He says he’s disgusted with me because he thinks I’m filthy!
“I’m not filthy… how am I filthy… I’m really not filthy… ”
Luo Zheng turned as pale as a sheet and the memories that were deeply etched in her mind, seemed to overwhelm her and drown her.
She began to feel flustered and she glanced at Bo Hancheng with a tinge of resentment in her eyes. She wailed in between sobs, “Just why… is everyone maligning me… I clearly don’t have any other man… Why do you people have to berate me… ”
Bo Hancheng remained emotionless but he clenched his fists tightly below his sleeves, a sign of his agitation. He felt that she had misunderstood him.
He didn’t mean to say that she was filthy. What he meant was that he disliked the way she behaved with Xi Mubai just now!
“I didn’t berate you…”
“You did!”
She interjected as soon as he spoke.
Bo Hancheng took a deep breath and repeated, “I wasn’t berating you… ”
“You were! You did, you just did. You berated me… ”
Luo Zheng retorted stubbornly to vent her anger and misery.
At this moment, she felt like Bo Hancheng was Xi Mubai and the other people who had misunderstood her!
Bo Hancheng could tell that Luo Zheng was being capricious and hence did not explain any further. Instead, he said calmly, “Go get a shower. After you shower… you won’t be filthy anymore! Then, I’ll settle the scores with you… “
