Lin Xinlan suddenly let out a piercing scream, "Don’t touch me! Qiao Yiyang, you turned me into this, what are you doing here?! If you feel guilty, give me the antidote, and if you don’t want to give me the antidote, then please get out!"
She stood up abruptly, angrily pointing at the door.
Qiao Yiyang rose to his feet, his slightly hunched body instantly becoming upright, tall and strong.
"Xinlan, come with me. As long as you come with me, I will give you the antidote, and you will soon return to your former self; you don’t have to age, don’t have to die."
Lin Xinlan sneered, "Are you trying to threaten me? Let me tell you, I am already prepared to die. It doesn’t matter to me if you don’t give me the antidote! I just don’t want to see you again, get out!"
Yang Shan tugged the corners of her mouth, smiling faintly, "You refuse the antidote even when it’s brought to your doorstep; really, you don’t know what’s good for you."
Her voice was Lu Xiaofan’s.
Lin Xinlan scoffed with irony, "I don’t know what’s good for me? Who is to blame for the way I’ve become? Now you bring the antidote to my doorstep, pretending to be good people? It’s laughable, you’re all too shameless!"
Lu Xiaofan snorted coldly, displeased, "And you think you’re so innocent? If it weren’t because of you, would we have fallen to this state?!"
Lin Xinlan was momentarily stunned, then burst into harsh laughter.
Her laughter was filled with sarcasm.
All of this, it had become her fault.
If Qiao Yiyang hadn’t insisted on having her, would all these things have happened?
From beginning to end, she was the victim, and now she was being portrayed as the culprit, which was truly laughable to the extreme.
"Xinlan, I know I have wronged you, but I did it to have you. Xinlan, please come with me. As long as you do, I will give you the antidote right away," Qiao Yiyang looked at her intently, his voice gentle.
Lin Xinlan just coldly watched him, without a trace of being moved.
"Qiao Yiyang, if you really feel sorry for me, just give me the antidote and then we can be strangers from now on. If you want to use the antidote to threaten me, then I can definitely tell you, I would rather die than take your antidote!"
The man’s pupils shrank slightly, his voice low, "Do you really want to die? Have you thought it through? If you die, you will never have the chance to see Rong Shaoze or your son again."
The mention of them made Lin Xinlan’s heart ache as if it were being cut with a knife.
She said in agony, "When I left them, I had already decided not to see them again. Even if I got the antidote and left with you, what difference would it make from being dead? Either way, I can’t see them again. Seeing them would only make them even more sad and distressed. Qiao Yiyang, I will not betray Rong Shaoze, not even in death, give up on that hope!"
Qiao Yiyang’s hands clenched tightly, and it took a lot of effort to restrain the anger inside him.
"You love him, but does he love you? You left him and he didn’t even send anyone to look for you! Xinlan, he has given up on you, you should give up on him too!"
Lin Xinlan’s body trembled, and tears inevitably fell from her eyes.
"It was me who killed his love; it’s my own fault that he has given up on me... Don’t say anything more, leave at once, I don’t want to see you all, I can’t stand even one more second!"
"Lin Xinlan!" Qiao Yiyang could no longer hold back his anger, stepping forward and gripping her shoulders tightly, shaking her furiously.
