Chapter 688: Unable to Understand
"Yu Shifeng," Leng Yiyi looked at the cruel man in front of her in disbelief, "You can't do this to me. Just change rooms. I won't pursue your past. As long as you..."
"Why do you care about my future?" Yu Shifeng interrupted her impatiently. "Leng Yiyi, do you really think that if you scheme to get me married like this, I will just sit there and wait for death?"
The look in his eyes when he looked at her was full of disgust, no longer as gentle and doting as before.
"I had to marry you out of respect for Uncle Leng and Aunt Shen, but don't worry, sooner or later you will file for a divorce yourself, and you will regret the decision you made today."
Leng Yiyi felt like she was falling into an ice cellar, looking at him in disbelief: "What do you mean, Yu Shifeng, we are about to get married, can't we just live a good life?"
"That was your good day," Yu Shifeng looked at her with disgust. "You plotted to force me to marry you. Have you ever considered my feelings before doing such a ridiculous thing? Why are you pretending to be pitiful in front of me now? You should have thought about it when you gave it to me. You can force me to marry you, but you can't force me to fall in love with you."
The bedroom door slammed shut.
Leng Yiyi sat on the ground in embarrassment, tears streaming down her face.
There's no going back.
In fact, it’s too late to go back.
It's just that she still stubbornly holds on to those memories of the past.
Yu Shifeng no longer cared.
There was no chance for them when he was making love with another woman in her bedroom.
She could forget his past absurdity, but he would never fall in love with her.
Besides, could she really forget?
Looking at the big bed in the bedroom and thinking of everything that had happened on this bed, the nausea in her heart surged up again...
——
When Xiang Zhimu got home, Qi Xingzhuo was waiting at the door. He looked very tired, as if he had been waiting for her for a long time.
Xiang Zhimu calmed down, looked at him coldly and asked, "Student Qi is waiting for me?"
Qi Xingzhuo's voice was hoarse when he first spoke, and he stepped forward anxiously to ask her: "Mumu, where have you been these days? Why didn't the nurses let me in when I went to the hospital to see you? Is it Leng Jun? Are you being controlled by Leng Jun?"
Xiang Zhimu avoided his hand that was about to reach out to help her in time, took a step back and said coldly: "Leng Jun is very good to me and doesn't control me. It's me who doesn't want to see you."
She said it so directly that Qi Xingzhuo looked a little embarrassed, and all the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out.
It was not until Xiang Zhimu ignored him and opened the door to enter the house that he hurriedly chased after her and said, "Mumu, I know I was sorry for what happened back then, but Leng Jun, people like Leng Jun are not easy to mess with. Don't push yourself into the fire pit for five million. I can help you..."
"I almost forgot," Xiang Zhimu interrupted him and closed the door. "Wait a moment, I'll go in and get something for you."
After a moment, she opened the door with a check and handed it back to him with both hands.
"This was the compensation your family gave me back then. You wanted to settle the matter peacefully, but you left the country the next day, and I didn't have time to return it to you. Now is the perfect time to return it to its rightful owner."
This is a check for five million.
The thing that completely crushed her dignity back then.
She wanted to tear it into pieces countless times, but she didn't quite understand how to do it. She was afraid that it would be troublesome to return it to them after tearing it into pieces, and she wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
It would be better to keep it and return it to Qi Xingzhuo in person when you meet him in the future.
Tell him she doesn't accept such compensation.
Qi Xingzhuo looked at the check in front of him, his eyes trembling. He looked at her hoarsely and said, "Mumu, why are you doing this? It was my mother who wronged you back then, and now you happen to be in trouble again. Isn't it just right for you to give this to your landlord?"
"Qi Xingzhuo, do you really not understand, or are you just pretending to be stupid?" Xiang Zhimu stuffed the check back into his hand, then decisively took a step back to keep his distance from him. "I'm giving it back to you to tell you that I won't accept your family's compensation. As soon as I find the opportunity, I'll sue your mother in court and make her pay for what she did."
"Xiang Zhimu," Qi Xingzhuo was a little angry at the stubborn Xiang Zhimu. "It's all in the past. Li Jing saved you back then, and you didn't suffer any substantial harm. Why are you still holding on to this matter? Don't you understand the principle of forgiving others when you can?"
She just knew it.
Looking at Qi Xingzhuo's self-righteous face, Xiang Zhimu felt that he must have been blind to fall in love with him.
"Nothing happened? That's because Li Jing happened to pass by and saved me. What if Li Jing hadn't gone? Qi Xingzhuo, have you ever thought that if it weren't for this unlikely accident with Li Jing, I would have been killed by a group of old men in their thirties and forties in that alley. You will never understand the despair I felt at that time. What right do you have to advise me to be magnanimous?"
Now when she wakes up in the middle of the night, she is still awakened by the memory of her despair.
Just because nothing happened doesn't mean there was no harm. Qi Xingzhuo's mother did such a cruel thing to her just to keep her away from her son. She will never forgive her and must seek justice for herself.
"Qi Xingzhuo, I don't need your empty apology and unclear help. Don't come to me privately in the future."
With that, she slammed the door in front of him.
Qi Xingzhuo looked at the closed door and closed his eyes in pain.
He didn't understand why she was so obsessed with it.
So many years have passed. If she could have been more open-minded, there would be no need for her to marry a good-for-nothing like Li Jing.
If she had been more generous back then, they would not have broken up.
"Xingzhuo, have you seen your cousin?"
After Qi Xingzhuo went downstairs, there was a beautifully dressed woman sitting in the car. When she saw him coming down, she immediately got out of the car and took his hand and asked with concern.
Qi Xingzhuo pulled his hand away and said indifferently, "I saw it."
Xiang Jingjing looked at the check in his hand and asked doubtfully, "Cousin doesn't want to accept your help?"
Qi Xingzhuo didn't want to talk and got into the car in silence.
Xiang Jingjing followed and sat down in the passenger seat. She looked at Qi Xingzhuo's face and said aggrievedly, "Xingzhuo, you don't have to worry about me. I know you love me very much. Even if you plan to break up with me now to take care of me, I won't say anything. I just hope you and me will be happy."
"My sister is now married to a loser like Li Jing. I feel so bad when I think about having a child with a man like him in the future."
Have children and be a wife.
Qi Xingzhuo's face gradually became ugly, and his grip on the steering wheel gradually tightened.
