Chapter 244: Exchange
Su Wanyuan’s lips moved, and she lowered her head somewhat awkwardly.
Huo Chengxuan not far away also noticed Xie Jingyan.
His gaze was first surprised, then mocking, grinning as he said: “Yo, isn’t this President Xie? How come your hair is gone? You look ugly as hell haha.”
Xie Jingyan looked at him indifferently, scoffing: “Even if I’m ugly, I’m still more handsome than you this Super Male. If your features went for plastic surgery, the doctor wouldn’t even know where to start cutting.”
“You!”
Huo Chengxuan hated most when others called him Super Male, or commented on his features.
So what if he was a bit ugly! But he had money!
But this could only suppress the Xie Jingyan from ten years ago.
The current Xie Jingyan was someone even he had to weigh his own worth before daring to touch.
Huo Chengxuan was going mad with irritability inside.
The youth he could freely insult and beat ten years ago had grown into a towering tree.
He recalled his brother’s warning, swallowed this breath hard, and vented all his anger on Su Wanyuan.
He went up and grabbed Su Wanyuan’s hair: “Bitch! Can’t walk straight seeing President Xie? Don’t even look at yourself—what kind of toad like you can dream of him? Get back to the room and serve me.”
The tearing pain on her scalp made tears surge instantly from Su Wanyuan’s eyes, and the tray in her hands dropped to the ground due to this mishap.
Su Wanyuan didn’t dare touch Huo Chengxuan’s hand, so she could only grab her own hair to lessen the torment on it.
She faintly regretted in her heart coming to meet Huo Chengxuan.
But Xie Jingyan was unwilling to have much contact with her; she was just hugging a thick thigh for self-preservation.
She didn’t want to become a tool for sleeping with old men to stabilize the Bai Family business.
Tears welled up in Su Wanyuan’s eyes as she looked toward Xie Jingyan.
Hoping he would soften and help her.
But she was destined to be disappointed.
Xie Jingyan was too lazy to even glance her way.
Instead, he walked to the dining table, sat down, and started looking at the menu to order.
Su Wanyuan’s tears flowed freely.
She didn’t understand why she had come to this point.
Why she was entangled inextricably with the violently addictive Huo Chengxuan.
Why she had entered the Bai Family full of schemes, with no family affection at all.
Why in the vast Capital City she was isolated and without help, without even a single friend.
Even Gu Lanli, who once admired her, now hated her to the bone.
Jiang Yan, whom she hadn’t fancied before, was now successful in his career.
And Xie Jingyan, whom she liked, was growing ever more distant from her.
Su Wanyuan’s tears fell pattering down.
Was this heaven’s punishment for her harming others?
Clearly she had just been doing things as instructed, so why was there no good ending for her.
Jiang Ning, who she thought had died long ago, seemed to have appeared again.
She didn’t even know why someone dead for ten years would suddenly appear.
Looking exactly like the former Jiang Ning.
She was dragged by Huo Chengxuan into the elevator.
His voice was still cursing: “It’s all because of you bitch, making me in such a bad mood. You really deserve to die.”
Amid the barrage of curses, Su Wanyuan’s psyche gradually twisted.
She was already rotten.
Why not drag this person down to hell with her.
Through the gaps in her black hair, Su Wanyuan’s gaze toward Huo Chengxuan gradually turned cold.
She lowered her eyelashes, thinking of a revenge plan in her heart.
……
By the time Xie Jingyan finished eating, it was already nine o’clock.
Because he was thinking of Jiang Ning, his speed was much faster than usual.
He was carrying light food prepared for Jiang Ning in his hand.
Little Honey floated beside him: [What do you want from me?]
Xie Jingyan’s gaze was very faint: “I want Jiang Ning to recover health.”
Little Honey circled around him once, unable to hold back a sigh: [Sorry for not explaining to you that Ning Ning has cancer. When I went to her, she was already near death, with fresh soil turned up—she had prepared a coffin for herself, her lifespan was at its end. I lied to her that as long as she slept with you, she could recover health. She believed it, but at first she didn’t want to heal herself this way. She said she wasn’t sure if she still liked you…]
Xie Jingyan lowered his eyes, a shadow falling over his eyelids: “She has already given her answer—she likes me, I love her too, we are people truly in love. I want to be with her until the end of life. Little Honey, you will help us, right?”
Little Honey was almost scared by these two.
Clearly in the script.
They were the most impossible pair.
But still…
Not even life and death could separate them.
Little Honey sighed: [You already used twenty years of lifespan to bring her back, so this time, what will you exchange?]
One update today, hit a block, back to double updates tomorrow.
