Chapter 74: Her Mistake Was Thinking
“Something wrong?” Han Wuyu looked at her coldly, his expression impatient.
Zhang Xingqing’s expression changed slightly, but it was only for a moment. She clearly didn’t know that Han Wuyu had obtained the Heart of the King, nor did she know that Ling Hu would cause so much trouble. At this point, could she still regret it?
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have threatened you before.” Zhang Xingqing had truly gone all out this time, putting aside all her pride just to reflect on her actions. But whether it would truly be accepted was unknown.
Han Wuyu didn’t speak; she was waiting for Yin Lingyan, so she had left home early and come to school.
“You shouldn’t apologize to me.” How could he not know what she meant? It was still about the Heart of the King. How could a man as intelligent as him not see through such a woman? (Self-absorbed ≧﹏≦)
“Yu, we’ve lived together for so many years, and I’m your older sister, aren’t I?” Zhang Xingqing pulled out the relationship card, which did make Han Wuyu hesitate a little. He didn’t know why Mother Han had adopted Zhang Xingqing, but he knew that Father Han and Mother Han seemed to like Zhang Xingqing very much.
Seeing Han Wuyu’s momentary hesitation, Zhang Xingqing’s heart rejoiced. She seized the opportunity to try and hug Han Wuyu. How could Han Wuyu, who had severe germophobia, let her succeed?
His gaze instantly turned disgusted. He didn’t know why those two at home had adopted such a woman.
“Get lost.”
Those two words were a death sentence for Zhang Xingqing. Zhang Xingqing’s heart was bleeding, and her hands involuntarily clenched into fists because of those words.
Her sharp eyes spotted a familiar figure turning the corner at the school gate. A venomous smile curved her lips.
“You’ve actually been using Yin Lingyan all along, haven’t you? Your company seems to be lacking a design expert. She won first place in the Jin Guo Design Competition, so you’ve been approaching her with ulterior motives just to keep her from going to someone else and letting your company miss out. And her brother…” Zhang Xingqing didn’t finish speaking, but she smugly saw the figure who had already left.
Yin Lingyan walked out of the campus in a daze. Using her? Did that mean the Jin Guo Design Competition was also arranged? So his kindness and gentleness towards her were all with ulterior motives.
She felt so cowardly at this moment. She didn’t dare to ask him if what Zhang Xingqing said was true. She was afraid, afraid of hearing the cruel truth from his mouth.
Since childhood, she had never truly been happy. Because of Yin Chubei’s existence, she learned that the father she had always admired and followed in childhood had long since had an affair. Although she didn’t know the inside story, she knew she was someone neither parent truly cared for. Being kept in the dark about everything made her feel truly helpless.
She thought that finally, someone had appeared in her life without deception. In the past few months of getting along, they had come to know each other better. Just as she thought this was the pillar of her future happiness, had she already betrayed her own cowardice?
Brother wouldn’t be with her forever, and her best friend couldn’t be with her forever.
