Chapter 292: That Man Is Too Conceited
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Ningyi scoffed icily as if he did not wish to answer such a stupid question.
Chu Ningyi did not receive the answer he wanted so he got up irritably to leave.
“Chu Ningyi, did you know? When you chose to beat me at my own game and allowed her to get into that car, you were fated to raise hostility between you and her. Although I did not destroy Shui Anluo, at least she won’t fall for you so easily now.” Just as he was about to leave, Lin Qianchen suddenly spoke up. Her voice was soft with a slight taste of victory.
Chu Ningyi paused at the doorway. He turned toward Lin Qianchen and replied after a pause. “I knew I was being followed from the moment I walked out of the house. Unfortunately, it was an underground taxi driver and that car had followed me all the way to the hospital.”
Lin Qianchen smiled as if she was waiting for him to continue speaking.
“But Lin Qianchen, you’re more stupid than I thought.” Chu Ningyi taunted.
“Did you know? I didn’t intend to act today but when I saw Shui Anluo with that man, I knew that this was a good opportunity because you care about her. You don’t know how to deal with your own feelings. All you know is to lash out at Shui Anluo because you don’t know what love is. All you know is jealousy,” said Lin Qianchen, her voice suddenly becoming sharp. “Of course, there’s also a possibility that you would not fight with Shui Anluo on the road. If that had happened, I would have to set my plan aside. There was also a chance that you might bring Shui Anluo back to the hospital. This way, my plan would not have been successful — that was even more likely. When you’re angry, you won’t care about Yuan Jiayi’s survival. Instead, you’d only continue to drag Shui Anluo along. Out of all of these possibilities, the odds of an opportunity for me to act as only at 25%, am I correct?” Lin Qianchen said as she placed her hands on the table. “But thanks to your help, my 25% chance became 100% and I became a 100% sinner.”
Lin QIanchen felt a little emotional at the end of her confession.
However, Chu Ningyi only continued to stare at her emotionlessly.
“However…” Lin Qianchen continued. “Chu Ningyi, you’ve arranged everything so flawlessly and yet you don’t know the existence of the word ‘accident’. You believe that you’ll be able to protect her because you have confidence that exceeds that of the average person. Even so, have you ever considered if Shui Anluo had ended up in an accident when she had struggled against the taxi driver? Can your people save her? What if that man had suddenly flown into madness? He might’ve just killed Shui Anluo in that car. Had this ever crossed your mind?”
Lin Qianchen’s voice was very soft but her words weighed heavily in Chu Ningyi’s heart.
Accident, the accidents she had mentioned made his heart tremble.
‘Chu Ningyi, you’re a special kind of pig. Is this how you planned to protect me? You’re hurting me, hurting me! Do you have any idea how terrified I was when I realized that I was in an underground taxi driver’s car? Don’t disguise your manipulations of me as good intentions. Let me tell you this, Chu Ningyi, I, Shui Anluo, don’t need this!’
“That accident will never happen,” said Chu Ningyi but he no longer had his confidence. Instead, his voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e. This was an emotion that he could not control.
“Chu Ningyi…” Lin Qianchen slowly got up though her hands remained on the table. “You’ve fallen in love with her. Unfortunately, she’ll never love a man who has used her life as bait simply because that man was too conceited.” Lin Qianchen had whispered that last part of her speech into his ear, making sure to enunciate every word.
