Jiang Zhi did not shout.
He quietly approached Wei Yuan and pulled her down forcefully.
"How can you do this to those who care about you?"
Jiang Zhi arrived, and Wei Yuan was inexplicably happy, with hope returning to her heart. "Zhi, you care about me, right?"
"Don't misunderstand, I'm here to see you on behalf of Atuo."
Wei Yuan sneered.
Her smile also carried a hint of despair.
Wei Yuan shook Jiang Zhi, trying to break free from his hand.
Jiang Zhi didn't let go, and pulled Wei Yuan back.
Wei Yuan became agitated and shouted, "I don't want your help, let me go!"
Jiang Zhi was a little angry and glared at Wei Yuan, "A Tuo cares about you a lot. He's worried that something might happen to you."
"Concerned? Don't they all want me dead?"
"Nobody wants you to die; you're just overthinking it. Don't blame all your setbacks on others; honestly ask yourself, are you right in all of this?"
"Ha...hahaha..." Wei Yuan's smile was not only cold, but also sinister.
She was also disappointed. "You only came to see me because of Jiang Tuo. We have no feelings left at all?"
Jiang Zhi said sternly, "Can't you wake up?"
"You condoned your grandfather's bullying and ruthless pursuit of me, am I right? Three years ago, he went even further than he has now, do you know that?"
“Come on, I’ll take you to Grandpa’s to talk to him face to face. If you can produce evidence, I’ll believe you.”
"Heh...hehehe...in the end, you still don't believe me. Or rather, you've never believed me, and I'm just a menace."
"Didn't you say that you had a reasonable argument and evidence? What's there to be afraid of when we confront each other?"
"You want evidence? Isn't his blacklisting me today evidence? You just want to see me fall from grace and be shattered to pieces!"
“Grandpa said you’re not suited to live in Haicheng. If you go back, he won’t hold it against you.”
"Isn't this kicking me out?"
"If you want to stay in Haicheng, why are you causing so much trouble? Didn't you disappoint others first? Didn't you make others unwilling to trust you?"
Wei Yuan said earnestly, "I admit it, I'm jealous of Qiao Chu. You were always mine. Now that you're happy, what about me?"
Wei Yuan's eyes reddened again.
Tears welled up quietly in her eyes.
Her nose felt sore, and her heart ached!
Her eyes were already swollen from crying.
Jiang Zhi remained calm and asked seriously, "If I remained disabled and unable to give you the happiness you desire, would you come back? Would you still insist on being with me?"
Wei Yuan did not answer decisively, nor did she answer without hesitation.
She also paused for a moment.
Jiang Zhi became even clearer about his own feelings.
"Wei Yuan, stop making excuses for yourself. You won't face me when I'm disabled. No matter how good your acting is, I can see through it. True love can transcend everything. Perhaps, compared to some things, you don't love me that much. You can't let me go, is it for money, or for the Jiang family? Or is your life lacking something that satisfies you?"
"Do you really know me? Jiang Zhi, you're quite arrogant."
"Wei Yuan, you've put it too clearly. When everything is laid bare, the beauty of the past seems even more laughable. You're just deceiving yourself!"
“You’ve already rejected me in your heart. No matter what I do, you won’t think I’m any better. You even think I’m lying.”
"Whether you're lying or not, you know best. It's been three years, and you've really changed."
"Jiang Zhi, the one who changed is you!"
"Say whatever you want, I'll just leave you some face and not expose your secrets. But that doesn't mean you can take advantage of Jiang Tuo. He genuinely cares about you and is simply worried about you. The way you're using him is truly shameless."
I came for Jiang Tuo, not for you. If you wanted to jump, you would have done it already; you wouldn't have waited for me. After all this talk, you've just kept making excuses. I'm truly disappointed in you.
Tears welled up in Wei Yuan's eyes and slowly slid down her cheeks. "Jiang Zhi, you have the least right to say such things to me. I love you, and that has never changed. From the very beginning, we have been adversaries; it is your family that will never tolerate me."
"I'm not going to argue with you, and I don't want to dwell on the past. Go downstairs and call Jiang Tuo back."
"I'm not leaving, I want to sit here."
Jiang Zhi glanced at Wei Yuan, then, too lazy to say anything more, pulled her along with him.
“I told you to let go, and you said it yourself. I won’t jump off a building, I won’t kill myself, and I don’t want your fake kindness.”
Jiang Zhi didn't stop; he pulled and dragged Wei Yuan all the way to the top floor entrance.
He stopped instantly.
The door to the top floor was locked.
As I recall, the door was open when he came up.
I don't know how it got locked.
...
With a whoosh, Jiang Zhi released Wei Yuan.
He glared at her, annoyed.
Jiang Zhi's face instantly turned icy.
"You had the door locked, right?"
Wei Yuan chuckled and said disdainfully, "Jiang Zhi, is your surname Lai?"
“Before, I had some reservations about you, but now I completely believe you. You are really cunning! You are definitely not suited to stay in Haicheng. You should go back abroad.”
"You won't believe anything I say, think whatever you want."
Jiang Zhi ignored Wei Yuan and took out his phone to make a call.
When I checked my phone, there was no signal.
In an instant, Jiang Zhi glared fiercely at Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan frowned, looking completely innocent, and met Jiang Zhi's gaze.
"What's wrong?"
"No cell phone signal? How could there be no signal?"
