“Lu Yanchen? How could you treat me as such…!” Yang Sitong was just like a shrew right now, screaming out in grievances. She completely had not believed that Lu Yanchen would just tear down the bridges between them in public without a single care for his family’s image.
Lu Yanchen raised his brow and said in a firm tone, “If you wish for the Yangs to disappear from this city entirely along with you, continuing causing a scene then.”
His voice was calm, no different from when he was talking usually. However, there was a chilling aura that exuded from it.
Yang Sitong was completely stunned.
He was able to ignore the standing and reputation of the Lus all for the sake of s.h.i.+ Guang? Wasn’t he afraid at all that someone would go and complain about his father because of his actions?
“How could you treat me as such! I’ve once saved your life!”
When Lu Yanchen heard that, he laughed, “There’s something that my wife said earlier on that was absolutely right. At least a person without a conscience is still a human, just a bad person, that’s all. But those who hold others blackmail with a debt of grat.i.tude truly can’t be considered humans. Toward people that aren’t human, I guess I’m okay with being a bad person.”
Yang Sitong’s face turned black as she shrieked, “How are you treating me fairly like that?”
Lu Yanchen took a few steps forth and stood in front of Yang Sitong, looking down at her with such proximity that she nearly did not dare to breathe.
Instinctively, she took a step back and fell onto the sofa.
“You saved me and that’s a debt of grat.i.tude. A debt isn’t something that is enough for me to listen to whatever you ask of me for the rest of my life! If I were old and ugly, would you have still insisted on marrying me? Even if we once had a marriage agreement, so what? Firstly, I’ve never once touched you, and thus I don’t owe anything to you physically at all. Secondly, I’ve never made you any promises, and had already gone over to your place to break the marriage agreement in high school. You had also gotten yourself a boyfriend when you were in university. That means that you too have agreed to back out of the marriage. Now that you’ve broken up with your boyfriend, you’re saying that the marriage must still be effective? Are you trying to toy around with us Lus?”
Those words that were firm with absolute certainty had immediately switched the positions of the two of them. With that said, he no longer bothered about whether Yang Sitong’s face was flus.h.i.+ng red and white as he turned and looked at s.h.i.+ Guang. “Let’s go!”
Yang Sitong’s final last bit of sanity had snapped at that moment.
She bawled out from the bottom of her heart, crying in a way that seemed as though that was her desperate last grasp at fighting back, “No, no! That wasn’t a boyfriend! I merely went out for a couple of meals with him! Right from the very beginning, you were the one I had liked the entire time! But why? Why do you not want me? Since that’s the case, what’s the point of me continuing to live on? I might as well go and die! I’ll just go and die!”
After saying that, her eyeb.a.l.l.s spun all around.
There was a table with some ornaments placed above it before her.
Lunging at the table, she grabbed at one of them that was so sharp that it looked like a knife and held it at her throat, looking as though she was going to stab down.
“LU YANCHEN! MUST YOU REALLY BE SO MERCILESS TO SOMEONE WHO HAD ONCE SAVED YOUR LIFE AND LOVED YOU SO MUCH? DO YOU REALLY WISH FOR ME TO DIE THAT BADLY? FINE! I’LL GO DIE RIGHT NOW THEN!”
She looked deranged as though she could not care for her life any longer.
Seeing this, everyone nearby was shocked.
This was way too extreme right now! How scary! They felt really sorry for the Lus instead for getting involved with such an insane person.
s.h.i.+ Guang felt a little panicked as well. She hated Yang Sitong that much that whether or not that woman died was no concern of hers. However, she was worried about the impact on the Lus if Yang Sitong were to die. Who knew what sort of chain reaction might be started due to that…
