Chapter 204: Thousands of Arrows Piercing the Heart
Jiang Yuan didn't know how long she walked before she returned to her home. She went back to get her luggage, and when she closed the door and went out, she deliberately looked back twice. She didn't live in this house for a long time, but some scenes and memories seemed to be deeply imprinted in her mind. Perhaps, she would never forget them in her life.
If she hadn't met him with any purpose, if she didn't have that unclear past, she might have been able to have a normal relationship with him, the kind without any ulterior motives. She would definitely be very happy. After all, she really liked him.
But this premise is not true. She was carrying the vengeance of her father's murder, and she also needed to repay a debt. At that time, Qi Zhenlei brought people to her house every day to make trouble, and her mother was miserable. She had no other choice but to find Xu Hui and ask her for help.
Perhaps in the eyes of people like Yin Dong and Yan Yiru, selling one's dignity for 2 million is self-degrading, but for her who just graduated, it is just a stopgap measure when she is desperate.
Jiang Yuan never regretted finding Sister Hui. At that time, she had no other choice. Her mother had already attempted suicide once. Qi Zhenlei and his gang had bad habits and could do anything. Was she going to watch her mother being forced into a desperate situation?
Jiang Yuan dragged her suitcase across the snow, wiping away her tears as she walked. She told herself over and over again that she had done nothing wrong and she had no regrets about ending up like this. The only thing she could not forgive herself for was that she should never have fallen in love with Yin Dong.
The memory of the past seemed to be stuck on two days ago. She was cornered at home by Qi Zhenlei, and he suddenly appeared from nowhere to save her. He had said to Qi Fushan viciously, "Your son violated my girlfriend, and you treated me to a meal to apologize. What were you thinking, Mayor Qi? By not killing the young master, am I being too merciful and causing you to misunderstand me?"
That was the first time she heard the word "girlfriend" from his mouth. She would never know how much impact those three words had on her at that moment. She seemed to have suddenly found a backer.
He also promised her mother in person, and the words "I will not betray you or let you down" made her throat choke for a while.
Jiang Yuan forced himself to clear all of this from his mind. Right now, all he felt towards her was hatred.
It was already 11 o'clock in the evening when she returned to the house she had rented before. She walked back. When Xu Hui opened the door, he was startled and almost didn't recognize her.
Jiang Yuan walked in the heavy snow for nearly two hours, and was soaked from head to toe. The ice on her hair and eyelashes melted into water indoors, dripping down her face.
Her face had already turned purple from the cold, her down jacket was soaked, and her shoes were filled with snow and water.
She was frozen like a snowman. When Yang Xue touched her hand, it was as cold as a popsicle. "How did it become like this? What happened?"
Xu Hui glanced at the suitcase beside her and instantly understood what she was talking about. Without asking any more questions, he said, "Come in quickly."
Jiang Yuan's limbs were so frozen that they were numb and she could no longer feel the temperature. When she entered the warm room, she felt the pervasive cold, as if it were pierced by thousands of arrows.
Xu Hui looked at her trembling body and couldn't help but scold her distressedly: "Are you torturing yourself? Are you stupid? What's the problem that makes you want to torture yourself like this?"
