Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Li Zhiwei, I have thought about it for a long time. Who would hate me enough to want me dead? Who would hate me enough to want to separate Xuning and me? I can’t think of anyone who fits that description. However, when I looked at your face and saw the naked ambition in your eyes, I knew it was you who wanted to kill me, and you were deliberately trying to break Xuning and me up. The car accident was also done by someone you ordered that year, right? ”
Li Zhiwei’s face was soaked in lemonade, which also melted the foundation off of her face.
Still, she should be grateful that Ye Linlang splashed lemonade at her at this time. It would’ve been way worse if she was splashed with coffee instead.
Li Zhiwei took out the tissue and wiped the lemonade on her face. She couldn’t help but bitterly say, “Ye Linlang, don’t you think you’re acting a bit paranoid right now? Why would I want to kill you? Do you think I am that stupid? Even if I kill you, you’ll still live on in Xuning’s heart.”
Ye Linlang snorted and said, “Does that mean I won’t be in his heart if you don’t kill me? Li Zhiwei, you need to accept the fact that Xie Xuning is my man, even if I didn’t want him. Do you still want to be a mistress at such an old age? Don’t be stupid. Xie Xuning is mine and mine alone. Even if I don’t want him, he still only loves me…”
Li Zhiwei couldn’t help but feel very sad when she heard Ye Linlang boasting about her relations.h.i.+p with Xie Xuning.
Her eyes were full of tears.
“You know, you should teach an acting cla.s.s. How can you be so calm even after I threw a drink on you?”
The tears rolled down from Li Zhiwei’s cheeks .
Her aggrieved heart ached beyond measure.
The wet hair on her face made her feel like she was going insane.
“Ye Linlang, I am just better educated than you. My upbringing does not allow me to do such extraordinary things.”
Ye Linlang sat back slowly and said, “Upbringing? When they found out that Xie Xuning had been married, didn’t they still want their daughter to be his mistress?”
“I am not a mistress,” Li Zhiwei retorted, “I’m not a mistress. I just love him. Is that so wrong?”
Ye Linlang laughed scornfully. She cupped her hair elegantly back her to ear and said, “Li Zhiwei, do you just love him? If I had married another man other than Xie Xuning, wouldn’t you have gotten what you wanted? Besides, you’d know better than anyone else whether or not you’re a mistress!”
No.
No.
I was not a mistress.
I just loved him.
I just couldn’t help myself.
No matter where he was, she couldn’t help but want to follow him.
After all these years, it had become her instinct to love him.
As long as she heard his name in the crowd, she couldn’t help but want to see if he was there.
How could Ye Linlang ever understand how she felt?
She just took off and had been gone for years, leaving Brother Xuning behind in the Imperial Capital all by himself.
“Ye Linlang, you have no right to say that I’m a mistress. Without you, Brother Xuning would have married me in the end. Don’t get too satisfied about this, either. You may have his heart, but that’s all you’ve got to rely on. You’d be nothing without him.”
Ye Linlang sternly looked at Li Zhiwei’s expression and said, “Li Zhiwei, how could I have nothing? I already have a daughter from Xie Xuning.”
