Chapter 278 It’s Over Between Him and Me
Miyagi wanted to persuade her that this matter had nothing to do with her, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
If Shen Xiyi was a person who listened to advice, how could she have stayed with Liang Junchen for such a long time? She personally verified the nature of this man and realized that this path was wrong.
"He intercepted the news that Master was seriously ill. I didn't get to see Master for the last time. It's over between him and me."
Liang Junchen did something she could never forgive.
Gong Cheng was not surprised. Liang Junchen, that lunatic, was capable of doing such a thing.
"Since you have made up your mind, do whatever you want. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to protect you now, but all the uncles and brothers here can protect you."
Gong Cheng also greeted the fellow apprentices in the Taoist temple. As long as Shen Xiyi needed help, they would definitely help him at all costs.
Shen Xiyi lowered his eyes and said nothing, his hands on his knees involuntarily curled into fists.
Shen Xiyi didn't talk much with Gong Cheng. He was afraid that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he got up and prepared to go out soon.
"Xiyi, thank you for taking care of our family's troubles." Miyagi sat in a wheelchair and looked up at her. This gaze came from the heart.
If she had been able to go to school properly, she might not have met Liang Junchen at all, let alone relied on his resources to climb up. She is very strong in her own right.
"If it weren't for me, the Gong family wouldn't have those troubles. Brother, don't thank me." Shen Xiyi couldn't suppress the sadness in his heart, and left the room after he finished speaking.
The moment she closed the door, she gripped the door handle tightly, her tears unable to stop.
It's all because of her. People around her are always getting hurt. She really shouldn't have been so blinded by emotions and ran away earlier. Why did she get into so much trouble?
Liang Junchen was stopped by his senior brother Lian Jiazi in the front yard. The incense in front of the temple made him feel uncomfortable, so he simply left the Taoist temple.
Li Lingfeng hid in the dark and watched his every move coldly.
Liang Junchen could feel the hostility of the entire Taoist temple towards him.
He didn't like this feeling. When Shen Xiyi entered this place, it was as if he had a protective layer. He could no longer easily grasp it or control it at will.
When she just came up, Shen Xiyi suddenly spoke ill of him. Did she want to completely break up with him here and try to let the people in the Taoist temple protect her?
But this idea was too naive. The Taoist temple was on the top of a mountain, and all the exits in front and behind were closely watched by his men. Unless she evaporated on the spot, there was no way she could escape from here.
Not long after Liang Junchen retreated to the door, several cars drove up. After the cars stopped on the parking lot, more bodyguards in black suits got out, including Lu Xue.
The snow on the top of the mountain has not completely melted yet, and the entire Taoist temple is wet, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Liang Junchen lit a cigarette and waved to Lu Xue.
Lu Xue looked around and made sure that someone was calling her, then she ran over quickly.
"Mr. Liang."
"It's very cold on the mountain. Go and get a coat for my wife." Liang Junchen held a cigarette between his fingers, his expression gloomy.
Lu Xue couldn't tell whether Liang Junchen didn't want to go in on his own or was driven out by the people inside, so she hesitated for a moment.
"Madam, aren't you going to come out?" After Lu Xue asked, Liang Junchen's cold gaze fell on her face.
Lu Xue's heart skipped a beat.
"Mr. Liang, I don't mean anything else. I'm just worried that my wife is in a bad mood. We're in the mountains, and if she gets sick by accident, it will be very harmful to her health."
Liang Junchen took a deep drag on his cigarette: "It doesn't matter. It's inevitable that she will be angry and upset."
A hint of sarcasm and contempt flashed across the man's eyes. Shen Xiyi was still young and didn't understand how suffocating power could be.
Lu Xue was somewhat moved, but she didn't dare to say anything more. She was just a bodyguard. She couldn't say what she shouldn't say, nor could she show any sympathy that she shouldn't have.
She lowered her eyes and slowly stepped aside.
Liang Junchen smoked with one hand and played with his mobile phone with the other. No matter what, he still had to be patient and not be too harsh unless it was absolutely necessary.
If Shen Xiyi was bullied too pitifully by him, he would also feel distressed.
In the evening, Lu Xue entered the Taoist temple with Shen Xiyi's coat, and the people inside did not treat her well.
No one told her where Shen Xiyi was, and many people in front of the hall had sadness on their faces.
Lu Xue didn't know where her intuition came from, but she walked straight towards Li Lingfeng who was sitting in the innermost seat.
"Excuse me, where is Miss Shen? President Liang was worried that she would be cold, so he asked me to send her some clothes." Lu Xue's tone was official and without much emotion.
Although Li Lingfeng had been looking at her, he didn't expect that Lu Xue would find him directly among so many people, as if she knew that he was the highest authority here.
"Don't worry, Mr. Liang. Xiyi won't be hungry or cold here with us. If you don't have the patience to wait, you can go back first. When we're done here, I'll arrange for someone to take Xiyi back personally."
Facing the indifferent Li Lingfeng in front of her, Lu Xue felt as if her hands and feet were trapped.
"You want your wife to stay here? Mr. Liang won't agree." Lu Xue felt uneasy when she thought of so many bodyguards coming up.
If the stalemate continues like this, Liang Junchen will inevitably lose his patience and do something crazy.
Zhong Fangyuan, who had hurt Liang Nian before, has been arrogant all the time, and Liang Junchen has no plans to care about him in the short term.
However, Zhong Fangyuan's words offended Shen Xiyi, so Liang Junchen really tore his mouth apart. Zhong Fangyuan was so scared that his beautiful face was disfigured.
These Taoists did not understand Liang Junchen and had no idea how cruel he was.
Li Lingfeng sneered: "Why doesn't he agree?"
Liang Junchen did such a thing, he wouldn't still think that Shen Xiyi could live with him obediently as before.
Lu Xue's face turned pale.
"Uncle, don't make things difficult for her. She's just a salaried employee. I'll talk to Liang Junchen about the details." Shen Xiyi's voice appeared at the right time.
Her voice appeared, and her figure followed.
Li Lingfeng frowned slightly, but didn't say much. Silence was considered as his agreement.
Lu Xue handed her the thick coat in her hand, and Shen Xiyi smiled and took it from her.
This look was no different from usual, and Lu Xue's heart, which had been hanging in the air, slowly calmed down.
Shen Xiyi immediately left the Taoist temple. Liang Junchen stood in front of the railing on the edge of the cliff. He was tall and slender, with a black coat that made his aura particularly cold.
Then, Shen Xiyi turned around and saw a large group of bodyguards standing there waiting.
Seeing this scene, Shen Xiyi took a breath.
She slowly walked to Liang Junchen, and Liang Junchen put out the cigarette in his hand when he noticed her approaching.
The dark color in his eyes seemed to be unchangeable. He looked at her without any expression.
Shen Xiyi didn't look at him, not wanting to feel any of his emotions directly.
"Tomorrow is the day my master will be buried, and I have to see him off for the last time." Shen Xiyi's tone was not a discussion, but a notification.
Liang Junchen raised his hand and loosened his collar. Seeing Shen Xiyi like this, it was really difficult for him to control his crazy emotions.
"You hate me, don't you?" He grabbed her wrist and dragged her in front of him, his eyes red.
He regretted it, regretted blocking the news. He didn't know what he was thinking at the time, and he hoped that Shen Xiyi would never know.
But there is no impenetrable wall in this world. He did not expect that Shen Xiyi would doubt him because of his intuition.
Shen Xiyi raised his eyes, without any fluctuation in them. His eyes were cold and indifferent, without even any anger or resentment.
This state of deathly silence was like a heavy hammer hitting the man's heart.
"If hating you would bring Master back to life, I could hate you to death. Unfortunately, the dead cannot be resurrected, and time cannot be reversed. I am destined not to see Master for the last time."
When Shen Xiyi's heart completely cooled down, he realized that this man was nothing special. How could he be so nostalgic at that time?
She shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake. She shouldn't have.
His tone softened a bit: "Xiyi, I didn't know things would turn out like this."
As he explained, the strength in his hands gradually tightened, as if he was afraid that she would slip out of his control.
