Chapter 141 "Use the rest of your life to atone for your sins."
But Shen Yanci did not think he had done anything wrong.
He was very unwilling to accept it.
The feeling was like vines soaked in night dew, wrapping around you thread by thread, making it hard to breathe.
Clearly, clearly we were just one step away.
He couldn't help but wonder why He Jinzhao was always a little luckier than him.
Her family background was better than his, her grades were better, she was more popular, and even the laughter and cheers around her were warmer than his.
What he found most unacceptable was that the little tail who had followed him around since childhood, with his heart and eyes always on him, had somehow ended up in his arms.
It turns out that the bitterness and resentment lingering in my heart were never anything else but an unyielding and heavy jealousy.
"Hahahahaha—"
His shoulders were trembling violently, his cheeks were bruised and purple, and blood was still trickling from the corner of his mouth. He looked utterly disheveled, yet his laughter grew even more unrestrained.
He raised his hand to wipe his face, his eyes bloodshot, and his voice hoarse: "I regret it."
He Jinzhao looked at him coldly, showing no reaction to his sudden burst of laughter.
There was no point in continuing the argument, so he lifted his foot and walked towards Song Shiyi.
The most urgent task is to bring Song Shiyi back.
She's been drugged with an aphrodisiac; she must be feeling terrible right now.
We need to arrange for a doctor to expel the effects of the medication from her body immediately.
The moment I took my first step, I heard the man's regretful voice.
"I should have slept with her while she was awake instead of talking so much nonsense to her."
"At least we won't lose money."
He Jinzhao suddenly stopped.
The air around him seemed to freeze, and his suppressed emotions spread like an invisible storm throughout the room.
He closed his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and his shoulders trembled slightly, as if he was trying to control his emotions.
In just a second, he opened his eyes and, without the slightest hesitation, picked up the girl curled up on the bed.
At this moment, Song Shiyi was suffering excruciating torment from the aphrodisiac.
Her cheeks were flushed an unnatural red, her breathing was rapid and hot, her skin felt like it was on fire, and an indescribable heat surged through her limbs and bones.
She bit her lower lip hard, her nails digging into her palms, barely maintaining a sliver of consciousness through the excruciating pain.
Sensing a familiar scent and a warm embrace, Song Shiyi's hazy consciousness jolted violently.
She struggled to lift her heavy eyelids, and through her blurry vision, she met He Jinzhao's anxious face.
It was him.
These two words were like a thunderbolt that shattered her tense nerves, and like a calming pill that instantly soothed all the panic in her heart.
The last vestige of clarity that I had been holding onto crumbled instantly, and my tense body went completely limp.
She no longer cared about appearances, and like grasping at a lifeline, she gripped his shirt tightly with both hands, her burning cheeks involuntarily rubbing against his neck.
The temperature there was slightly cool, which was just enough to relieve the burning heat in her body.
Like a wounded kitten, she nuzzled his skin with her nose, soft whimpers escaping her throat, her voice thick with nasal congestion: "He Jinzhao... I feel so bad..."
Her voice trembled at the end, tinged with tears, a testament to her complete dependence and grievance.
He Jinzhao felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his heart tightly, causing him so much pain that he could hardly breathe.
He looked down at the girl in his arms; her lips were bleeding from where she had bitten them.
Her once clear eyes were now veiled with a layer of mist, exuding a vulnerability and bewilderment that she would never normally display.
His Adam's apple bobbed, his voice was terribly hoarse, and he deliberately spoke softly, afraid of disturbing her.
He raised his hand, his fingertips gently brushing against her sweaty temples, his movements incredibly tender.
"I am here."
Two words, spoken in a low, deep voice, carrying a reassuring power.
He tightened his arms, holding her even closer in his embrace, his palms pressed against her burning back, patting it very gently, one stroke at a time.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, everything will be alright."
His voice was right next to her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe.
Unconsciously, Song Shiyi snuggled deeper into his arms, her nose brushing against his collarbone, greedily inhaling his scent.
The familiar scent gradually calmed her down, and the heat in her body seemed to lessen a bit.
She loosened her grip on his clothes a little, but still wouldn't let go. She just leaned softly against him, like a kitten that had found its home.
Seeing the girl who had previously resisted and loathed him now leaning so dependently on another man's arms, Shen Yanci felt that none of the injuries he had just endured were as painful as this.
In the past, it would have been him who held her.
But now, he was like a stray dog, lying on the ground in a sorry state, watching this horrifying scene.
Ha, how ridiculous.
Mingming, the person who grew up with her since she was little was him.
Clearly, he is the most important person to her besides her parents.
In just a few months, everything had changed.
As He Jinzhao took his last step out the door, carrying the person in his arms, he slowly turned his head to look at his former best friend.
His tone was cold and indifferent; every word was piercing.
"The Resignation of Chen Yan".
"Use the rest of your life to atone for your sins."
Shen Yanci's gaze was as if bound by invisible threads, fixed tightly on that figure's back.
Dust from the ground clung to his cheek, chafing the wounds on his face, but that pain was nothing compared to the desolation in his heart.
He tried to raise his hand, but his fingertips felt as heavy as lead. He could only watch helplessly as the door slowly closed, cutting off all light and the warmth he had once felt.
He Jinzhao was well aware of the force he used; even if Shen Yanci wanted to run, he wouldn't have the strength, since even his ribs had been broken.
Just in case, he closed the door.
Xie Lin and the others should be arriving soon.
We can leave the rest to them.
What you say comes true.
From a distance, I could hear a series of hurried footsteps, getting closer and closer.
He Jinzhao, looking anxious, carried Song Shiyi and quickly walked towards the elevator.
Her condition is getting worse and worse.
The two groups successfully met at the corner.
Only Xie Lin, Si Yue, Ji Siyu, Qi Feng, and Le Wanqing came.
I guess there are too many people, it's inconvenient, and the elevator can't accommodate everyone.
Si Yue was startled when she bumped into the two of them. Seeing the girl in his arms who was clearly acting strangely, her face was full of worry: "What happened to her?"
Ji Siyu touched her cheek, her fingertips recoiling from the intense heat, her expression grave: "It's so hot, call a doctor quickly."
Seeing her like this, it's obvious what happened.
"Where is Shen Yanci?" Xie Lin frowned.
"I've locked him in the room. The rest is up to you. I'm leaving now."
Xie Lin understood what he meant and nodded: "Yes, leave your parents to us, you can take care of her without worry."
Soon, He Jinzhao's figure disappeared from their sight.
Qi Feng asked in bewilderment, "Shen Yanci planned for so long, and you just let him go so easily?"
Le Wanqing smacked him and said irritably, "What are you saying?"
Qi Feng's question was quickly answered.
They gasped when they saw the man lying on the floor of the room, barely alive.
No wonder.
The person was on their last breath, how could you stop them?
Si Yue had originally planned to kick him a couple of times, but seeing how little he was breathing, she was afraid that if she kicked him, he would die.
"How so?"
"Nonsense, of course we should call the police."
"Kidnapping and attempted rape, that's enough to get him into serious trouble."
Xie Lin clicked his tongue. "Not just that."
The others looked on in surprise.
What? Is there something else?
Xie Lin casually uttered a sentence.
"He also participated in group sex."
