Chapter 359 My final regret is knowing you
Although Han Xi's words moved him, Shen Jiheng still seemed to have no intention of telling her the truth.
"Do you want me to tell you something?"
Hearing her heavy tone, Shen Jiheng's handsome face showed an anxious expression.
"What's up?"
"My assistant Qin and I are plotting something dangerous. I'm really trying my best to get back close to you."
Shen Jiheng asked anxiously, "What are you going to do?"
His reaction clearly showed he was scared. Judging from Han Xi's behavior these past few days, she also doesn't follow the normal path.
Han Xi smiled wryly, "Weren't you trying to push me away? Now you're starting to worry about me."
Shen Jiheng grabbed her arm: "Tell me quickly."
Han Xi gazed at her with her beautiful eyes, murmuring, "Seeing you is so troublesome now, I can only try to get you to take the initiative to get closer, and it would be best if you wouldn't leave me."
Shen Jiheng frowned as she continued, "So we thought of staging an accident. If you knew I was injured, you would definitely show up. Although it's a bit risky, I still want to try."
Shen Jiheng was almost furious and pulled her in front of him.
"Do you know what you're saying? What if there's danger? Who will take care of the child?"
"If you really choose to distance yourself from me this way, I have no choice but to take the risk. Unless you tell me the truth, I will continue to make a scene like this."
But Shen Jiheng didn't have that much time; he just wanted to get everything done in the little time he had left.
"Han Xi, don't force me."
"Now you're the one forcing me. No matter what happens, I can face it with you, but you insist on getting stuck in a dead end, making the people around you worry and feel sad."
Shen Jiheng looked conflicted. He thought he had done everything perfectly, but his plan had not worked on Han Xi.
Han Xi slowly leaned forward and hugged him.
“Ji Heng, even if we were to be separated by death, I would still hope that we could spend our final moments together, rather than you pushing me away in these hurtful ways and leaving on your own.”
As she spoke, she choked up and said, "That will make me even sadder. I will never be able to forgive myself for not being by your side. If you don't want me to feel guilty and remorseful in the future, you should face this with me."
Having suppressed her emotions for two days, Han Xi finally couldn't hold back anymore and hugged him tightly, bursting into tears.
No matter what method Shen Jiheng uses, Han Xi will not give up, for she fears that even her last moments will be taken away from her.
Hot tears fell onto his chest, seeping into Shen Jiheng's heart, making him feel so much pain that he couldn't breathe.
He raised his stiff hands, but hesitated to put them down.
"Ji Heng, I'm begging you, please don't push me away anymore, don't waste any more time."
Wasting time...
Han Xi's words struck a chord with him.
He didn't have much time left and wanted to observe them secretly.
After a fierce internal struggle, I gently placed my hand on her head to soothe her anxiety.
"I really can't do anything with you. Why don't you just accept my arrangements and make things so difficult for me?"
"You think you can get rid of me? You had a hard time winning me back."
Shen Jiheng hugged her tightly, burying his head in the crook of her neck. His self-control, which he had once been so proud of, completely collapsed in front of Han Xi.
This is the lover he finally won back; how could he bear to leave her?
"I'm sorry, Han Xi, I'm so sorry."
"I want you to tell me the truth, what really happened."
Shen Jiheng tightened his arms around him, but something seemed to be stuck in his throat. Even he, who was usually fearless, was speechless at times.
He simply couldn't tell Han Xi the fact that he was about to leave this world.
A commotion was heard outside the corridor, and Yang Quan brought Bo Siye back.
Shen Jiheng took a deep breath and released Han Xi, adjusting his emotions so that no one would notice anything unusual.
"President Shen, I've brought the person back."
Shen Jiheng looked over angrily and saw the resentment on his face, probably thinking that he could still escape from here.
Han Xi stepped forward and said, "Ji Heng has already told me everything. Now you don't need to keep Director Chu locked up anymore. Hand him over, and I won't hold this against you."
Bo Siye looked at Shen Jiheng in surprise. Knowing this person as he did, he would definitely bear it alone so as not to hurt Han Xi. Why would he tell her?
Shen Jiheng nodded: "Don't be so surprised. I've thought about it. The feelings between Han Xi and me have long surpassed everything. If I keep doing these things to avoid her, it will only make her have more regrets in the future."
Bo Siyue said, "In the end, it's still your selfishness. Even at a time like this, you're still thinking about possessing her, without considering what she should do in the future."
These words were quite hurtful, and they were exactly what Shen Jiheng originally wanted to avoid.
"It's none of your business how I conduct myself."
Han Xi was pleased that Shen Jiheng was aware of this. "You should have heard me clearly. Have someone bring Director Chu over right now, or you can forget about leaving here."
Bo Siye miscalculated; why does he always lose to Shen Jiheng?
Shen Jiheng gave Yang Quan a wink, and Yang Quan nodded in understanding. He then punched Bo Siye in the stomach, making him cough in pain.
"If you don't want to suffer, you'd better do as we say in the end, because I won't go easy on you."
If he falls into the hands of his enemy and remains stubborn, he can only hope for the best.
Bo Siye looked at Han Xi and heard her say, "Tie him up with a rope so he doesn't run away again."
Now that the two are on the same side, there's no way he'll survive.
Seeing that Bo Siye was still hesitating, Shen Jiheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm actually very curious. You seem to be in a hurry. Could it be that Chu Yuntian has some other secrets about you?"
If it was just to cover up Shen Jiheng's illness, he could have simply released him.
But he hasn't taken any action yet, which means he's hiding something.
Bo Siye calmly said, "I'm just tired of being suppressed by you."
Shen Jiheng raised his hand, and Yang Quan punched him on the shoulder again, making him bend over halfway in pain.
Shen Jiheng crossed his arms and laughed, "Do we need to continue? It won't be this easy later. Do you want to make an easy exchange, or do you want to be beaten half to death before we trade?"
Clearly, Bo Siye has no choice now. Faced with two people who are no longer soft on him, he can only choose the former.
“Okay, I’ll have Li Yuan bring him over, but I have one condition: once he arrives, he must let me go immediately.”
Han Xi pointed out: "You're so worried, could it be that he's really caught you doing something wrong?"
Bo Siye looked at her with resentment. He had done all this in order to change his relationship with her. Everything he did was inseparable from her.
"Han Xi, all you need to know is that everything I did was to gain your forgiveness."
Han Xi shook his head and said sternly, "But what you did will only make me hate you more. You have no credibility whatsoever. The thing I regret most in my life is knowing you."
