Looking at the man's sincere repentance, Su Yuxi gained a deeper understanding of human shamelessness.
How can someone in this world have the nerve to ask for forgiveness after hurting others time and time again? Does he think that after doing all these despicable things, an apology is enough?
Does he expect someone else to go back with him?
Not to mention, there's another woman outside who risks her life to bear his children.
He wanted to boldly declare to the outside world that he would marry Jiang Shiqian, and she respected him as a man.
But while he was dragging Jiang Shiqian along, he also came to beg for reconciliation, playing the trick of starting something and then abandoning it.
How come she never knew this man was so disgusting before? Was he just too good at pretending, or is this just the nature of men?
A surge of anger rose within her. She pushed off with her feet, gently swaying the swing, and said to him again with a cold face, "Lu Yunzhou... I wasn't joking when I told you we should break up that day."
"No, I won't break up!" Lu Yunzhou's pupils constricted sharply. Before she could finish speaking, he reacted by shouting angrily at the mention of breaking up, disregarding their earlier agreement, and took two large steps forward.
"Stop! If you take another step, we'll have nothing to talk about," Su Yuxi said sharply, forcefully stopping him in his tracks.
Her condition for agreeing to meet with him was that he not get close to her, in order to prevent him from doing anything rash.
Lu Yunzhou was deeply stung by the coldness and disgust in her eyes; it was a genuine emotion revealed from the bottom of her heart.
He used to think Su Yuxi was too perfect, so perfect that she seemed like a mannequin.
She is beautiful, generous, obedient, and always puts herself first. No matter what mistakes he makes, she will forgive him unconditionally and always believe in him. Sometimes, when she is overwhelmed by family and company matters, she will gently comfort him, as if everything he does is right.
He also wondered if Su Yuxi didn't love him, otherwise why would she show no emotion when he was rumored to be having an affair with another woman? He didn't believe it, so he kept testing the waters with other women on the edge of ambiguity.
Later, things somehow got out of control, which led him to become increasingly indulgent, because he knew that as long as he paid money, Su Yuxi wouldn't care and would stay by his side.
The first time he saw Su Yuxi reveal her true emotions, he was frightened and felt extremely flustered. He felt as if he was really about to lose something, and he began to defend himself.
"Xixi, I really know I was wrong. I don't believe in our three-year relationship. You just cut it off like that."
"I know I was a jerk before, I did a lot of things that hurt you, I deserved to be punished."
With a loud 'smack,' he slapped himself hard twice across the face. He had really gone all out with those two slaps, and five clear handprints immediately appeared on his thin cheeks.
“I don’t like those other women. They’re all just playing around. The only one I love will always be you. Since you don’t like them, I’ve driven them all away.”
"Now I have no other woman by my side but you. From now on, I will only stay with you, okay?"
He truly didn't love those other women; they were merely places to vent and have fun. The only woman he loved in his heart was Su Yuxi, and the only one he wanted to marry was her.
Su Yuxi frowned, her gaze growing colder and sharper. His scumbag remarks were truly astonishing.
I say to you emotionally that I only love you, but physically I'm entangled with other women.
This behavior is absolutely disgusting.
Su Yuxi knew her judgment was bad, but it was so bad she wanted to gouge her own eyes out.
When she gets back, her sisters will definitely laugh at her for it.
Suddenly I had an urge to beat someone to death.
"No, there's no such thing as cheating, it's either zero times or countless times. Lu Yunzhou, from the day you betrayed our relationship, you should have known this would be your fate."
Lu Huaizhou clutched his heart, pressing down on the throbbing pain, stubbornly believing that he was fine, and that everyone around him felt the same way, without exception.
"But you never said that before."
"If you had told me earlier, I definitely wouldn't have gone after those women."
Su Yuxi was almost laughing in exasperation: "Isn't this the most basic fidelity in a relationship? Do I need to tell you? I've told you once or twice, but what about after that? If you feel you need me to tell you, will you listen to me after I tell you?"
This man is ridiculous.
"Lu Yunzhou doesn't even have the ability to restrain himself in a relationship, so it's impossible for it to last."
Lu Yunzhou was still unwilling to give up: "But we've still managed to get through half a year like this."
"Why was it possible before? Why can't things continue like this?"
"And even if I did something wrong, I know I was wrong, so why won't you give me a chance to make amends?"
Su Yuxi's temples throbbed, feeling that there was an insurmountable gap between her and this man, making it impossible for them to communicate on the same wavelength.
This man only thinks from his own perspective and acts without any moral boundaries; no amount of talking will change anything.
She stood up from the swing, a cold smile playing on her lips: "Lu Yunzhou, do you even know how to spell the word 'shame'? To make cheating sound so elegant and refined, you're truly the first person in the world to do that."
"I'm not going to waste my breath arguing with you. I'm breaking up with you, and that means it."
"I don't want to." Lu Yunzhou knew that what he said was excessive, but he really had no other choice.
"Xixi, you clearly love me, so please don't say goodbye."
Su Yuxi raised her hand and made a big X in his eyes: "Lu Yunzhou, don't insult the word 'love.' I don't love you, I never have. You were the one who shamelessly clung to me before. I only did it because you had money."
"Do you understand? I like money. I'm a very materialistic person. I can do without men, but I can't do without money. That's why I've been able to put up with you for half a year."
Listening to her inner analysis and explanation, Lu Yunzhou not only did not blame her for being a gold digger, but also smiled happily: "It's okay, if you want money, I have plenty of money. As long as you don't break up with me, I will give you all the money I earn in the future."
This promise is of utmost importance.
From his university days, Lu Yunzhou demonstrated exceptional business acumen and keen insight. He not only excelled academically but also secretly made several successful investments in his own name.
He started an investment company on his own before graduating from university, and it grew bigger and bigger, with annual profits exceeding three to five billion. His momentum was very strong. For him, making money was no different from drinking water, so he dared to challenge the Lu family.
Giving him two or three hundred million a year wouldn't be a big deal for him.
If he gives her all the money he earns, then it's equivalent to her earning 10 billion in two years.
She was just one step away from going home.
At that moment, Su Yuxi cursed herself in her heart. She was tempted. She had endured humiliation for half a year and only earned a hundred or two hundred million. Now it had been two years... She knew that the person in front of her was a scoundrel, but he was so generous. She was really conflicted.
