"Liao Nanxing!" Zhou Chunhua's voice was filled with an indelible disgust.
"Chunhua, is it really you!"
Liao Nanxing excitedly stepped forward, while Zhou Chunhua was so frightened that she kept backing away.
She truly didn't expect Liao Nanxing to actually be able to get out.
Given Gu Yao's modus operandi, it's highly unlikely he would give Liao Nanxing a chance to come out.
Right now, she didn't want to say another word to Liao Nanxing.
"Now that you're out here, you should behave yourself!" With that, she turned and walked away quickly.
However, after taking only a few steps, someone grabbed his wrist.
"Chunhua, why are you doing this to me?"
Liao Nanxing stood in front of her.
"Let go of me!" She tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't break free.
At this moment, Liao Nanxing had a gloomy face, looking like an old man in his twilight years.
The wrinkles on his face seemed to have appeared overnight.
His gray hair made him look more than ten years older.
The upright figure I remember is no more.
To put it simply, if Liao Nanxing hadn't called out to her, and they had missed each other face to face, they wouldn't have recognized that this was the arrogant and haughty Professor Liao, or even President Liao.
Zhou Chunhua looked at the hand covered in black spots on her wrist with disgust, pushed Liao Nanxing with all her might, and pulled her hand back as he stumbled backward.
"You... pushed me?" Liao Nanxing stared at her in disbelief.
"If you dare touch me again, believe me, I'll slap you!" She raised her hand.
Whether Liao Nanxing was genuinely afraid of being slapped or had some unpleasant memory, he finally stopped getting too close to her.
But he remained standing there, showing no intention of letting her leave.
"Get out of the way!" she snapped.
"I won't allow it."
This was an answer Zhou Chunhua hadn't expected.
"Chunhua, I know I was wrong, I'm sorry! Please forgive me one more time, okay? Give me another chance to make up for the mistakes my mother and I made. I swear, I will do my best to make it up to you and Nini."
"Make amends?" Zhou Chunhua laughed in anger: "Then I'll cut off your leg, sew up your wound, and say sorry, and everything will be fine?"
Liao Nanxing's mouth was open, as if he was choked and unable to speak.
"If you really want us to forgive you, then please never appear in front of me and Nini again in this lifetime!" After saying that, she planned to walk past Liao Nanxing and leave.
Unexpectedly, Liao Nanxing changed his position and blocked her way again.
"Why? Why won't you forgive me? To gain your forgiveness, I've kept myself pure and focused on my career. What have I done for all of this? It's all for you and our daughter!"
I work tirelessly day and night to earn money so that I can provide you with the best living conditions and hire the best doctor for Nini!
I think... as long as I can be as good as you were when you loved me, you will definitely forgive me and come back to me.
"I..." Liao Nanxing patted his chest, his eyes red, and said, "I've tried so hard, why can't you see it? Zhou Chunhua, is your heart made of iron?"
"Stop with the crocodile tears and fake compassion. You're probably even moved by your own words, aren't you? Liao Nanxing, don't you know what kind of person you are?"
For the sake of grades, you instigated and condoned school bullying! For your mother to want a grandson, you allowed her to sell her own daughter! For your mother to hold a grandson, you broke your vow, kept a mistress, and demanded that I leave with nothing!
"Liao Nanxing, how can you say such things to me like this? How can you be so shameless?"
"I...no! I can admit to everything else, Chunhua. But I really don't know anything about Nini."
Zhou Chunhua gritted her teeth and slapped Liao Nanxing hard across the face.
"You didn't know? You didn't know? You would fabricate a story that I was so obsessed with my daughter that I developed a mental illness, and forcibly send me to a mental hospital? You're just afraid that I'll find Nini, reveal the truth, and make Professor Liao lose face!"
Ha! I see it now. Even your filial piety towards your mother is probably just to maintain your image as a devoted son! You keep saying it's for me, for our daughter, Liao Nanxing, but from beginning to end, you've only ever loved yourself!
She grabbed Hong Liao Nanxing by the collar and shoved him away.
Liao Nanxing stumbled backward until he crashed into the guardrail.
“No, that’s not how it is.” He shook his head blankly, then looked up at her: “Chunhua, let’s start over, okay? Like before, I’ll work hard and you can stay home and take care of Nini.”
I...I...I won't pay attention to other women anymore. Let's get everything back on track, okay? Like before.
Yes! Just like before. Su Mu is dead, there are no obstacles between us anymore, we can be like before. No! There's still Gu Yao, he likes you, doesn't he?"
Zhou Chunhua frowned as she looked at Liao Nanxing, who was speaking incoherently.
"From the moment you allowed your mother to sell Nini, there was no possibility between us! Also, please don't mention Gu Yao! You don't deserve to!"
Who does he think he is, to be compared to Gu Yao?
As Zhou Chunhua was about to leave again, she noticed that a crowd had gathered around her. Even passing riders had stopped to watch the spectacle.
She glared at Liao Nanxing before quickly trying to squeeze out of the crowd.
Just then, a chorus of gasps erupted from all around...
"My God!"
"Look!"
Zhou Chunhua looked in the direction everyone was pointing, her pupils contracted, and Liao Tongxing had actually climbed over the railing.
A kind person called the police.
Some people even took out their phones and started recording videos.
Liao Nanxing, gripping the railing with both hands, suddenly smiled at her...
"Chunhua, are we really never going back? What's the point of me living?" As he spoke, he looked down in a daze, eliciting another gasp from those around him.
"Hey lady, don't just stand there and do nothing! Can't you see he's not feeling well? If he really jumps off this bridge, he'll really be gone!" someone shouted.
"Yes! Nothing is more important than a human life. Sister, you should try to calm him down first! If he loses his grip, it will be too late to regret it."
"Yes, yes, let's get him down first."
"..."
But Zhou Chunhua turned a deaf ear to these voices.
Regret? You're more likely to regret not killing him!
A person who helps traffic his own daughter is a desecration of humanity.
She would never forget Xu Xiuzhen's words: He knew. He just didn't know where Nini had been taken.
She glanced at the person trying to persuade Liao Nanxing and said without hesitation, "Liao Nanxing, you deserve to die. If I were you, I would have jumped off this cliff long ago to wash away all your sins."
