Chapter 459 Qi Mingxuan Collapses and Dies of Heart (5)
"Mingyu?"
Qi Mingxuan scoffed, "Lin Xiaoyue, wasn't that beating you received eighteen years ago bad enough?"
Lin Xiaoyue was stunned.
The next second, as if she had been startled, she started waving her hands wildly.
"Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I beg you, please let me go. Qi Mingxuan, I was wrong. I will never bother Han Mingyu again, never again..."
Qi Mingxuan watched her performance with a cold eye.
She was like this when she was 18.
Feigning innocence and weakness to gain sympathy from unsuspecting people!
In fact, she was initially deceived by her seemingly weak and innocent appearance!
Qi Mingxuan took out her phone and turned on the recording function. "Lin Xiaoyue, I'm going to post what you look like now online. Don't you like to play innocent? I'll let your fans see just how innocent you are."
Lin Xiaoyue was stunned!
She looked at Qi Mingxuan in disbelief.
Can't!
She has put in so much effort over the years to become the glamorous Lin Xiaoyue, she cannot let her fans see her like this now!
"Come on, tell me, what methods did you use to get my husband to spend that 2 billion on you?"
"No, please stop recording, please stop recording—"
Lin Xiaoyue screamed and lunged at Qi Mingxuan.
Qi Mingxuan dodged.
Lin Xiaoyue fell to the ground.
Qi Mingxuan held up her phone and pointed it at her, "Don't you like being famous? Don't you like creating hype? You think you're having a great time spending other people's husbands' money?"
"I don't understand what you're saying. That money was lent to me by President Han. You've misunderstood..."
"Misunderstanding? Fine, you said the 2 billion was a loan to you, so now I'm asking you to repay it as Mrs. Han. Will you pay me back?"
"I..." Lin Xiaoyue gritted her teeth, "I don't have that much money right now..."
"You dare to start a company with someone if you don't have money? Lin Xiaoyue, stop acting. The same trick can't work twice. You schemed against 18-year-old Qi Mingxuan because she was too naive and didn't understand the evil in human nature. But the current Qi Mingxuan is capable of anything."
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head and started playing dumb again, "What are you saying? I don't understand. What 18 years old? I don't understand... I don't understand..."
"You lured Han Mingyu abroad, then had Chen Wei contact me, and got Chen Wei to give me the USB drive to provoke me. Also, weren't those anonymous photos all part of your plan?"
"I didn't... I don't understand what you're saying..."
"I used to not understand how you could convince perverts like Chen Wei and Zhang Zihao to help you frame me. Now I understand, you recorded these videos to blackmail my older brother, right?"
Lin Xiaoyue paused.
"Are you going to keep pretending?" Qi Mingxuan looked at her as if she were dead. "You sent me a distress message back then, and I went to save you. And what happened?"
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head, "You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense—"
"You won't admit it?" Qi Mingxuan reached into her pocket. "It's okay, I remember everything now. You should be glad I forgot for eighteen years, letting you enjoy yourself for eighteen more years. Now, it's time for you to get your comeuppance!"
Lin Xiaoyue looked at her warily, "What are you going to do?"
"What am I going to do?" Qi Mingxuan laughed, tears streaming down her face. "I finally remembered everything, of course I want revenge!"
Qi Mingxuan took a knife out of her pocket.
The phone fell to the ground, and she removed the cap from the knife.
Guan Shuo's pupils dilated in shock: "Madam, please, please don't be impulsive!"
Qi Mingxuan only stared at Lin Xiaoyue on the ground.
"Lin Xiaoyue, your mother slept with my father, causing our parents to argue and die in a car accident. It caused my older brother and me to lose our parents. Your mother deserved to die, but later she got liver cancer, and you went around in class playing the victim and soliciting donations. I refused to donate, and you held a grudge against me for that? You even misled everyone by saying that I led the bullying against you! You're so innocent, but am I not innocent too? Am I not pitiful either, having lost both my parents because of your mother!"
Qi Mingxuan gripped the knife and approached Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue was terrified and turned to crawl back, but her leg shackles were attached to the bed frame, and she couldn't break free.
"Qi Mingxuan, murder is a crime!" Lin Xiaoyue shouted in despair, "If you dare to kill me, you'll go to jail too!"
"I don't care if I go to jail, but you must die today!" Qi Mingxuan raised her hand and stabbed at Lin Xiaoyue—
"Mrs!"
"Xiao Xuan!!"
Han Mingyu rushed in from outside the door—
"Stop!" Qi Mingxuan turned her blade and roared at Han Mingyu, "Don't come any closer!"
Han Mingyu stopped in his tracks and raised his hands. "Xiaoxuan, don't get agitated. The knife is dangerous. Please listen to me and put it down, okay?"
The moment Qi Mingxuan saw him, her emotions completely erupted.
Her tears flowed freely, her eyes churning with intense hatred.
"Han Mingyu, I don't believe you."
Han Mingyu's chest tightened. "Xiao Xuan, let me explain..."
“I remember everything!” Qi Mingxuan stared at her, her hand gripping the knife trembling slightly. “I finally know why my older brother wouldn’t let me like you, Han Mingyu, you don’t deserve it! You don’t deserve it! You never believed me from beginning to end, and because of your disbelief, I…”
Qi Mingxuan couldn't bring herself to say the rest.
Han Mingyu frowned, not understanding what she was saying.
But he knew that Qi Mingxuan was not in a good state!
The despair and hatred in her eyes were something he had never seen before.
There must be something he doesn't know!
"Xiaoxuan, please calm down. I can explain. I'll explain everything about Lin Xiaoyue to you. But please put the knife down first, okay?"
"Did Lin Xiaoyue threaten you with the video of me being assaulted when I was 18?"
Han Mingyu was stunned.
Qi Mingxuan roared, "Is that right?!"
Han Mingyu stared at her, his throat tightening, "Xiao Xuan, you, you remember everything..."
"So that's how it really is... Han Mingyu, do you think you're doing something noble?"
Qi Mingxuan looked at the man in front of her and couldn't help but laugh, tears soaking her pale face. "It's ridiculous, so incredibly ridiculous..."
“Xiaoxuan,” Han Mingyu stepped forward, his eyes fixed on the knife in her hand, “Wife, it’s my fault, it’s all my fault. Please listen to me, put the knife down first, okay? I’m here, no matter what happens, I’ll be here…”
"You're here?" Qi Mingxuan shook her head. "No, Han Mingyu, you've never truly stood by my side. You don't even know that the one who ruined me was you, it was you!"
Han Mingyu's tall body suddenly froze.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Qi Mingxuan and finally realized that she remembered everything.
Qi Mingxuan's breakdown was so funny!
"Hahaha!" Lin Xiaoyue burst into laughter: "So what if Qi Zhao went to all that trouble to make you forget those things? What happened has happened, Qi Mingxuan, you're utterly filthy! How's Zhang Zihao's technique? I heard he's quite the player. Did Qi Zhao take you for a gynecological exam? Hahaha—"
Those images flashed through Qi Mingxuan's mind again!
Each frame, each scene, was so real, it was utterly disgusting!
And all of this was designed by Lin Xiaoyue!
"Lin Xiaoyue, you deserve to die—"
Qi Mingxuan could no longer control herself and raised the knife to stab Lin Xiaoyue!
"Ah!!" Lin Xiaoyue covered her head in terror—
Bright red blood dripped down.
The knife ultimately failed to harm Lin Xiaoyue.
The man's palm enveloped the sharp blade, and drops of bright red blood dripped down.
Qi Mingxuan stared blankly at the bloodstains.
What came to mind, however, was the image of his older brother cutting off Chen Wei's five fingers.
She slowly raised her head, her lifeless eyes fixed on Han Mingyu.
She was still gripping the knife handle, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
"You still want to save her..." Qi Mingxuan looked at the man in front of her. At this moment, she hated him. "Han Mingyu, you and she ruined me together!"
"No, there must be some misunderstanding, Xiaoxuan. You're not calm right now, you need to calm down..."
Han Mingyu's eyes were bloodshot. He looked at her and coaxed her gently, "I deserve to die, Xiaoxuan. You can punish me however you want, but don't do anything foolish. Think of the baby. The baby will be scared if you do this."
Qi Mingxuan stared at him, tears streaming down her face.
Han Mingyu gently pried open her hand that was gripping the knife handle with his other hand.
Qi Mingxuan did not struggle, but slowly let go of his hand, allowing him to hand the blood-stained knife hilt to Guan Shuo beside him.
The next moment, Han Mingyu hugged her tightly, "It's okay, it's okay."
Qi Mingxuan trembled uncontrollably.
A metallic sweetness rose in her throat, which she swallowed back down.
The embrace she once cherished so dearly now makes her feel suffocated and nauseous!
She pushed him away and slapped him across the face: "Han Mingyu, we're completely over!"
Han Mingyu looked at her in disbelief.
Qi Mingxuan turned around and walked straight out the door.
"Xiaoxuan!" Han Mingyu caught up and grabbed her wrist. "Please let me explain. I admit I didn't handle this well, and I made you misunderstand. But I thought you would never remember, and I just didn't want you to recall those painful memories..."
Qi Mingxuan slowly turned around and stared into his eyes.
"Are you afraid I'll remember painful memories, or afraid I'll remember how much my brother and I hate you?"
Han Mingyu frowned. "I know your older brother doesn't like me, but you... how could you hate me? Haven't you always liked me?"
"Yes, in your eyes, I should always love you, even if I suffer such a thing because of your prejudice, I should still love you, is that right?"
"No, that's not what I meant..." Han Mingyu was flustered. "I know you're very upset right now. Let's go home first, okay? Let's go home, and I'll tell you everything. There must be some misunderstanding here. I didn't know about what happened back then. I only found out recently."
“You know, you just don’t believe me.” Qi Mingxuan stared into his eyes. “In your eyes, I am spoiled and willful, I bully the weak, and I would even joke about kidnapping to get your attention.”
Han Mingyu was stunned.
Long-forgotten memories, at this moment, seemed to have been suddenly awakened by someone pressing a button.
Qi Mingxuan could tell from his expression that he had remembered.
She raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. "Do you still remember when you came to question me about why I brought people to beat up Lin Xiaoyue?"
“Because her mother interfered in my parents’ relationship, which led to my parents’ death in a car accident. Her mother has liver cancer and she organized a fundraising event in class. I refused to donate, and she pretended to be innocent and spread rumors that I led the bullying of her. Why should I be wronged for doing something I didn’t do? Since she said I bullied her, then I’ll prove it.”
Han Mingyu frowned, "But she came to me later and said that you bullied her because she liked me..."
"Ha, you believe her just because she says so? You're just as ridiculous as all those idiots who listen to her!"
"You could have explained it, if you had explained it back then..."
"Would you really believe me if I explained it?"
Han Mingyu was stunned.
"No, because you all believe that the weak Lin Xiaoyue will be bullied by the powerful and influential eldest daughter of the Qi family, rather than that a poor student would go to great lengths to scheme against someone out of jealousy."
Han Mingyu stared at her blankly.
He was speechless.
Because he had always thought Qi Mingxuan was spoiled and willful...
"Do you still have many questions? I've remembered them all now, and I'll tell you everything, one by one..."
"No, Xiaoxuan, let those bad things go. Let's live our lives well now and not think about the past anymore, okay?"
"You can get through it, but I can't."
Qi Mingxuan looked at him and said, "The same methods Lin Xiaoyue used on you were also used on me. She lied to me and said she had a video of my father cheating on me. She asked me out, and when I went, Chen Wei and Zhang Zihao were waiting for me. She just wanted to ruin me."
Han Mingyu, the night I was assaulted, she was being harassed by some thugs outside the alley. You saved her, but you didn't know that I was also in the alley! I cried out to you for help, but Lin Xiaoyue told you that I was on good terms with them and that they had deliberately teamed up to lie to you, just to test whether you liked me. I thought you wouldn't believe such a clumsy lie from Lin Xiaoyue, but you did.
Han Mingyu's tall body swayed suddenly.
Qi Mingxuan pushed his hand away and recounted her most unbearable and painful past. At that moment, her dignity was completely shattered.
She looked into Han Mingyu's eyes, which were neither sad nor happy, like a stagnant pool.
“When I first learned that my older brother had talked to you and told you to stay away from me, I was actually a little confused. I felt that although my older brother was strict with me, it was not very typical of him to talk to you and criticize you just because of your personality. After all, our families are all wealthy and powerful families, and we have a lot of business dealings. My older brother would not do such a thing easily. Now I understand that it was because you once stood by me and did not help me when I was in trouble.”
"Han Mingyu, look, you've never believed me. In your eyes, I, Qi Mingxuan, am just a spoiled, willful, and even bullying bad girl! Lin Xiaoyue is so innocent! Her uterus was ruined by her own fooling around with Chen Wei and the others, so why is it being blamed on me? And that day you caught me hitting her, so I slapped her a few times. The next day, she came to you with a cast on her arm. She shed a few tears and said that I was the one who caused those injuries, and you believed her!"
Han Mingyu couldn't believe it.
I can't believe the truth is like this!
He raised his hand to his chest, where the pain made it hard for him to breathe.
Qi Mingxuan's face was pale, and her expression was numb.
She took a step back, putting distance between him.
"Han Mingyu, I had forgotten those bad things, and I had forgotten that I hated you. The fact that I loved you for eighteen years was a mistake. But now I've remembered, and it's time to correct that mistake. I will not forgive you. There is no future between us."
She took another step back as she spoke, "Don't even think about trying to keep me here, you don't deserve it."
"No..." Han Mingyu tried to step forward and pull Qi Mingxuan away.
Qi Mingxuan was already standing at the top of the stairs; just one more step and she would tumble down.
"Han Mingyu, if you take another step forward, I'll roll off this cliff!"
Han Mingyu's tall figure froze on the spot!
"I'm not going, Xiaoxuan. Don't scare me. I won't force you. Please don't worry."
"I know you like this child. Don't worry, I will give the child to you after he is born."
Qi Mingxuan looked at him, "But I don't want to see you again before the baby is born."
Han Mingyu stood there, tears blurring his vision.
He longed to keep her, to go up and hug her.
But how could he dare to threaten her with suicide?
"I promise you, I won't force you." He closed his eyes, and two lines of clear tears rolled down his cheeks.
Qi Mingxuan turned around and, holding onto the railing, walked down the stairs step by step.
Anmi has arrived outside.
She pushed open the door, and amidst the falling snow, she walked step by step toward Anmi.
Anmi rushed over and caught her almost limp body.
"Mr. Qi, what's wrong...?"
Qi Mingxuan, barely able to keep her senses, said, "Take me back to the Qi family."
Anmi was startled by her pale face and red eyes. After helping her into the car, she closed the car door.
Turning around, I saw Han Mingyu standing at the gate of the courtyard.
The man's eyes were very red, and there were tears on his face.
Anmi didn't know what was going on, but she felt that the atmosphere was too oppressive.
The man didn't step forward in the end, but just looked at Anmi and said in a hoarse voice, "Take good care of her for me."
Anmi nodded, opened the driver's side door, and bent down to get in.
The Maybach turned around and drove forward.
The two tire tracks left behind were quickly covered by the snow.
