Yang Xue had no way of confiding it to anyone. Because of the contract, she could not prove her innocence. No one believed that she did not do it. Her world had turned dark overnight. She finally got a moment of peace, but she had suddenly become the target of public criticism. She could no longer bear it after being bombarded with accusations.
At this moment, a streak of red fonts in bold flashed across the comments section. “Don’t act pity. You deserve to die! You’re so vicious. Why don’t you go to hell?” The bloody red words were so striking.
Yang Xue was already numb reading the comments. Yet, she narrowed her eyes when she saw this comment. Someone watching the live broadcast saw this comment and said, “Isn’t that inappropriate? It is a human life. How could you say that?” Someone else said, “She doesn’t even cherish her own life. She even threatened to commit suicide, saying that others are framing her. She is not worthy of living! It’s her own fault!”
While the netizens were arguing passionately, no one noticed that someone was quietly approaching Yang Xue from the side.
“I knew that it’s useless for me to say anything. No one believed me.” The last beam of hope in Yang Xue’s eyes disappeared. Everyone in the world was pushing her into the abyss of death. No one was willing to help her. They were all waiting for her death. Perhaps she should not have existed in the first place. Yang Xue lowered her head and gave up explaining. She laughed at herself. “I’ll wait here for half an hour. Shen Sisi, do you dare to confront me in public? Whether you come or not, I’ll wait here. I’ll use my life to prove my innocence.” She did not say another word. She pursed her lips and stood quietly under the sunlight, waiting like a soulless puppet.
Shen Hanxing frowned and took a step forward.
“Don’t come over!” Yang Xue was unexpectedly sharp. She screamed, “I don’t need any of you to save me. If I want to die, it’s my own choice. I don’t need you to save me!” As she said that, she took a step out of the rooftop. She was going to make a jump if she was provoked.
Shen Hanxing frowned. “Don’t be so stubborn. There is a solution to every problem. Is it worth it to give up your life for some words and a misunderstanding?”
“Mrs. Ji? I know you.” Yang Xue’s eyes were dazed for a moment. She shook her head and continued, “I know you’re a good person, but don’t try to persuade me. I have my own thoughts.” After saying that, she lowered her head and continued to be in a daze. Seeing Yang Xue’s expression, Shen Hanxing clenched her fists and stopped in her tracks. She could feel that Yang Xue was determined to jump off the building. She was determined to die.
The feeling of helplessness filled Shen Hanxing’s heart. At this moment, Ji Yan reached out and held Shen Hanxing’s hand. He said softly, “Don’t be anxious.”
This matter could not be rushed. Since Yang Xue wanted to wait for Shen Sisi, they would wait as well. Perhaps there would be a turn of events. Shen Hanxing knew that all they needed was patience. She could only wait.
Seeing that Shen Hanxing had calmed down, Ji Yan turned around and asked for a parasol from the hotel. He kept Shen Hanxing shaded to prevent the scorching sun from burning her skin.
On the other side, when the netizens watching Yang Xue’s live broadcast heard Shen Hanxing’s name, they asked Yang Xue to show them around. They wanted to see Shen Hanxing, but Yang Xue did not do as they said. She did not do anything. She did not even respond to the curses. She simply waited.
Under such circumstances, Shen Sisi had no choice but to come. She was a public figure now. If she did not come, people would criticize her, saying that she was cruel and cold-blooded. Shen Sisi looked at the glaring sunlight and curled her lips in disdain. “If Yang Xue wants to die, can’t she just do it? The sun is scorching hot. What if I get tanned?”
A human life was not as important as Shen Sisi’s skin care. Lei Bing frowned and reminded her, “Be careful when you go up later. Yang Xue is having a live broadcast.” She had not even walked up to the rooftop, but she could already feel the heat wave. Her mood became even more agitated. “I have already planned it. They will create a chaos and push Yang Xue down. She won’t get a chance to speak. When you go up, remember to create chaos and provoke Yang Xue.” The more chaotic it was, the better it would be for her plan.
“Got it.” Shen Sisi took a deep breath and hid the impatience in her eyes.
