Yu Bai returned to the car and opened the door.
In an instant, the two figures in the front driver's seat and the passenger seat turned their heads almost at the same time and looked at her.
The undisguised deep concern for his family that surged in his eyes was like a silent warm current, instantly soothing Yu Bai's heartstrings that had been tense due to his scheming.
Her heart warmed, and the fatigue she had deliberately suppressed seemed to dissipate a little. A reassuring smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and her tone was as relaxed as if she had just gone downstairs to buy a bottle of water:
"It's okay, it's all resolved."
As she spoke, she shook the thin piece of paper in her hand that she had just taken out of the space and still had some body temperature - the freshly made IOU for one hundred thousand.
"Here, I got it."
Yu Sheng leaned forward to take it, glanced at it briefly, and the worry between his brows eased slightly, but did not completely disappear.
He was more worried about his sister herself.
Yu Cheng, standing next to him, frowned even more. He turned his head and fixed his gaze sharply on Yu Bai. His tone was filled with obvious confusion and even a hint of impatience:
"Xiaobai, I still don't understand."
He paused, as if considering his words, but finally spoke bluntly:
"People like Zhao Jia should just be kicked out and never have anything to do with them again."
"We have money and ability now. Later... when we are stronger, we can deal with him however we want. Wouldn't it be as easy as crushing an ant to death?"
"Why bother going through all this trouble, pretending to be nice to him, and even... giving him money?"
Although one hundred thousand yuan is nothing to them now, the act itself is simply not worth it in Yu Cheng's opinion.
The faint smile on Yu Bai's face faded and cooled little by little amid Yu Cheng's questioning.
She didn't answer immediately, but turned and looked out the window.
Her eyes were distant, as if she could see through the hustle and bustle of the traffic in front of her and see another time and space filled with blood.
After a few seconds, Yu Bai slowly turned around and looked at Yu Cheng before speaking.
"Fourth brother."
"You don't understand."
Her voice was soft, yet it carried a heaviness that didn't match her age and... an almost bone-chilling coldness.
"What happened between Zhao Jia and me wasn't a simple breakup. It wasn't as easy as kicking him out."
"Between him and me, there is... a great hatred."
"I don't want him to get into trouble so easily now. That would be too easy for him."
She leaned forward slightly and moved closer, and her beautiful eyes were now emitting cruelty and resentment.
"I want him to climb up, to the highest place he thinks he can reach, and get everything he has ever dreamed of..."
Her voice lowered even lower, like a devil's whisper, echoing in the small space:
"Then, ruthlessly and bit by bit, I'll pull him down, making him watch everything he has vanish into thin air. Let him experience the feeling of falling from the clouds into the mire."
"at last,"
"Only then can he completely disappear in the ending I carefully planned for him..."
As soon as the words fell, the car fell into deathly silence.
Yu Sheng's fingers gripping the steering wheel tightened unconsciously, and his knuckles turned white.
Yu Cheng looked straight into Yu Bai's eyes that seemed to be burning with black flames, and a chill ran down his spine to the top of his head.
He was speechless at the undisguised hatred that was almost overflowing in his sister's eyes.
That was not ordinary resentment, it was the despair and desire for destruction tempered after experiencing the burning of purgatory.
But... the next moment when extreme fear flashed through my heart.
A strange, indescribable sense of resonance ran through his limbs like an electric current.
He seemed to be able to touch the heart-wrenching pain and unwillingness behind the hatred across time and space.
Maybe this is the blood connection.
Yu Cheng thought that he would always stand behind Yu Bai.
