Wen He sat down, as her brows shuddered, concealing the turmoil within.
Yang Yi looked at her changing expression and continued confidently. “If you can convince Lu Bai to accept our amnesty, everything you did in the past would be wiped out, and you can live as a normal person from today onward. This is a very fair deal, beneficial to both of us, I don’t believe you’re that foolish to reject this, no?”
Only this once that Wen He was pushed against the wall so that she would cooperate.
She was frustrated, confused and prickling pain kept biting at her deep within her heart.
She refuse to believe that Huo Li was using her all along.
But his cold gaze earlier was still in her mind.
“Are you done considering?”
Yang Yi’s voice pulled Wen He’s attention back.
She looked at Yang Yi. His eyes certain with victory and seemed to be sure that she would not reject that.
Suddenly, her gloomy expression faded as she laid backwards and planted both her feet onto the table.
“Commander Yang right? My bad really, I reject.”
Yang Yi’s expression hardened, and asked brusquely, “You’ve not afraid of death?”
“I am,” She smiled. “But Huo Chen won’t let me just die that like that, he won’t have the heart.”
“Insolence!”
Yang Yi’s blew his top and his eyes twitched, “Seems like if we don’t let you die by Huo Chen’s own hand you, you won’t understand how serious things are!”
“Then get him to kill me then.”
Wen He twirled a strand of hair with her long fingers as her tone was nonchalant.
“Dying in his hands is more than worth it, we are husband and wife after all, right.”
After pausing for a bit, she sniggered. “But I’m curious, you had been claiming that Huo Chen was using me, lying to me. Why are you not all over him then? As long as he admits it himself, I may consider accepting your proposition. How about that?”
There were somethings that she had to asked him herself.
“Pigheaded wench!”
Yang Yi stood up and no longer bothered to look at Wen He as he turned and left.
Not being able to extract an agreement from her had ruined his mood. He decided to spit one last venom. “You think Huo Chen will want to meet you? His future is bright and you are nothing but the remnant of the gang that should have been dead. You think a person like you is fit for him? Preposterous!”
“…”
Wen He’s breathing slowed as her heart felt like it was held in a vice grip and was hurting.
But she quickly recovered and laughed back at Yang Yi, “Whether I’m fit for Huo Chen or not I’m not sure, but I can be dead sure that you are not fit for me, not even fit to negotiate with me.”
SLAM!
A massive slam cut off the room from the outside world.
Wen He rolled her eyes as she muttered to herself. “So much for a commander, such short temper, might as well go back to whatever hovel he came from.”
The spartan interrogation room suddenly became silent.
She too slowly retracted the smile she tried to hard to put on and felt that all her strength was sapped. She simply laid lifelessly on the table.
Her face was buried inside her arms and did not move to not allow the CCTV to capture her expression.
Huo Chen.
Her skin touched against the cold table and Wen He’s eyes were distant as she mumbled, “You won’t lie to me, right?
Sadly, she will never get the answer for the question at this juncture.
At the same time, Huo Chen had returned to the little mansion outside the military camp.
The auntie came out from the kitchen as she heard some noise. The moment she saw him alone, she was stunned.
“Is Madam not coming home?”
“She’ll be away for two days.”
