Yi Jingxi rushed up and kicked her chest. Zhong Yi screamed as she fell onto the floor, feeling like her internal organs had shattered under his foot.
Yi Jingxi pointed at her. “Let me ask you something. That night in Gu Feng, what did you do to Luo Sang?” His voice was ice cold.
Zhong Yi’s heart missed a beat. She guessed that Luo Sang must have sent the recording to Yi Jingxi. “Jingxi, you misunderstood it. Did Luo Sang send you the recording? They made me say that. And those photos… They forced me to drink. I…”
“Yeah, when people asked you, you told them that I made you do all the bad things.” Yi Jingxi stepped on the back of Zhong Yi’s hand and said, “When I told you to keep Luo Sang as your a.s.sistant, did I ask you to send her to another man’s bed? Who the h.e.l.l is that Mr. Lin? That man doesn’t deserve to even touch a finger of hers! I’m so stupid that I knew nothing about this. I even saved your *ss from the trouble you made for yourself. No wonder Luo Sang hates me so much. And even now, you’re still lying.”
Some people believed that fingers were connected to the heart. Zhong Yi’s fingers were about to break, and that caused her immense pain and made tears stream down her cheeks. “Jingxi, I was wrong,” she cried. “I felt sorry for you when I saw Luo Sang treat you like that. That’s why I wanted to get revenge on her. I did what I did because I love you!”
“Love me?” Yi Jingxi snorted and responded, “That’s how you love me? By letting me take all the blame? Tell me, what other things have you done behind my back?”
“I… Nothing. That’s the only thing I did without your permission.” Zhong Yi quickly shook her head. She believed that Yi Jingxi would definitely kill her if he found out about everything she had done.
Yi Jingxi slowly stood up, looked at the woman who was trembling on the floor, and said, “I’m offering you one last chance. Are you gonna tell me, or do you want me to find out myself? If I find out… For every bad thing you’ve done, my people will break one of your fingers.”
Frightened, Zhong Yi hurriedly asked, “No… If I tell you the truth… Will you forgive me?”
“At least you’ll suffer less than what might happen after I find out myself.” Yi Jingxi squinted at her and said, “You know what kind of a person I am that I can even be so cruel to Luo Sang, not to mention you.”
“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you.” Zhong Yi nodded and said, “Two years ago, when Luo Sang was studying in An City, I knew that you were looking for people to spread Xu Zhengxuan’s story, so I made some students bully her. I told some girls to lock her in a bathroom or cla.s.sroom, and I asked some boys to hara.s.s her.”
Yi Jingxi clenched his fists and said, “What else?”
“And… and, when she lived in the small apartment in An City, I hired some gangsters nearby to knock on her door in the middle of the night and smash things in her room… But, she wasn’t harmed…”
Before Zhong Yi finished, Yi Jingxi gave her another kick that was even harder than the first one. She suffered so much pain that she couldn’t talk for a long while.
“You think it was okay because she was unharmed? She’s a girl. Have you thought about how scared she was when something like that happened to her in the middle of the night? And have you ever thought that those people might want to do something to her? Or maybe you just didn’t care and even wanted that to happen.” Yi Jingxi bent over, pointed at her face, and said, “Zhong Yi, I thought that you were just a vain, greedy person, but I’m surprised to find that you’re purely evil. Luo Sang was nice to you. How did you manage to do something like that to her?”
Zhong Yi shook her head while crying. Yi Jingxi stood up and continued kicking her.
Finally, Zhong Yi was beyond endurance. “Enough! What makes you think you can say that to me?” She burst out yelling, “Did you give her less humiliation than I did? You stirred up her father’s trouble, and you spread that story all over the world. You bore witness yourself to send her father to prison. In front of a bunch of men, you called her a s.l.u.t. You ruined her career, destroyed her home. She finally started over in Xia City, but you revealed her ident.i.ty as Xu Luosang in public, in the cruelest way. I didn’t do all that.”
