Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hearing Luo Xin’s words, Zhou Xiaorou’s eyes turned red. Tears fell, and she looked at Luo Xing in confusion, “I’ve been so good to you and have always treated you as my sister. Everything you eat, drink, and live in is good. Why do you still want to harm me?”
Luo Xing glared hatefully at Zhou Xiaorou, her eyes full of ridicule. “You have always been used to a luxurious and prosperous life. Of course, you don’t think much of it. But I have never enjoyed any of that. You suddenly gave me all this, yet, you can’t let me have them forever. Of course, I will become greedy and want to have all of it.
“If you really want to blame me, then you’re also partly responsible for this. You shouldn’t have been too good to me. You should have made me remember my duty so that I wouldn’t have done such a thing.
Hearing Luo Xing’s words, Zhou Xiaorou was even more confused. She had only treated Luo Xin kindly, so why would he have such thoughts?
Xia Wan stood beside Zhou Xiaorou and comforted her. “Sister Xiaorou, this has nothing to do with you. Some people are jealous of what they can’t get. She’s in the abyss himself, so she wants everyone to accompany her.”
Just as they were talking, the door of the villa was opened, and Li Yan rushed in.
He pointed at the door of the house. At this time, the sound of police sirens could be heard coming from the door. He asked in a panic, ‘Why are there so many police officers outside our house? Did something happen at home?”
As Li Yan spoke, he observed the situation at home. When he saw that everyone was standing against Luo Xin, he suddenly realized something.
Zhou Tian stared at him coldly. “Don’t you have to work today? Why did he choose to go home at this time? You’ve never had lunch at home before. Did you come home today to confirm something?”
Li Yan immediately panicked when he heard Zhou Tian’s words. He quickly explained, “Dad, what are you talking about? I’m just thinking that since Xiaorou is going to work with me soon, I want to take her to the company after lunch to get familiar with her colleagues.”
Then, he pretended to ask, “Dad, what are you doing? Why aren’t you eating?”
Zhou Tian snorted coldly. “Why are you still pretending at this point? Luo Xing has already explained everything. You’ve joined hands with him to harm Xiao Rou!”
Li Yan panicked. He secretly hated Luo Xing for being so brainless, but immediately denied it. “Dad, don’t listen to Luo Xin’s nonsense. When did I want to hurt Xiaorou? Rou is my baby. I can’t wait to love her!”
As he spoke, Li Yan stood beside Luo Xin and chided her, “Luo Xin, I don’t know what you’ve done to Xiaorou, but she’s the treasure of my life. I’ll always protect her. If you do anything to hurt her, I’ll never forgive you.”
As he spoke, Li Yan didn’t forget to give Luo Xin a look.
He hoped that Luo Xin would take the hint and not drag him down with her.
Xia Wan opened her mouth. “Luo Xin, you just saw it yourself. When everyone was criticizing you, you chose to bear the consequences alone. You didn’t want to implicate Li Yan.
“But the man you’ve always protected chose to abandon you in your most dire moment. Is such a man really worth your protection?”
Xia Wan could already guess why Luo Xin was so determined to protect Li Yan. She felt that if she did not drag Li Yan down, he would be grateful for her kind deeds and want to save her.
So Xia Wan said, “You have two choices now. One is, to be honest with us. If you did this with Li Yan, you would bear less responsibility. But if you don’t plan to rat Li Yan out and choose to bear the responsibility alone, I can guarantee that he will definitely put all the blame on you. He will never want anything to do with you in this life because you are no longer of value to him.
“Li Yan’s current position was only possible because of Mr. Zhou. If Mr. Zhou doesn’t want him to continue working, he can lose his job anytime.”
“Mr. Zhou also bought this house. It’s an a.s.set that belonged to Rou before she even got married. If Sister Rou and Li Yan get a divorce, this house will belong to her anyway. Li Yan doesn’t even have his own house..”
