Chapter 89.1 - Greedy for warmth
Su Sheng immediately shook her head, “I’m not.”
But her eyes flashed panic briefly.
Lou Qingwu’s sigh grew deeper, “Miss Wan’er, I said, if you change your mind, you don’t have to worry about the agreement between us. Even if you can’t get that file, I have other methods of getting it. So, just do what your heart wants to do.”
Su Sheng bit her bright red lips but didn’t speak.
Lou Qingwu knew that she guessed right and didn’t force her, she let her think it through.
“Does he treat you well?”
Su Sheng’s hand that held her tea cup, stiffened, and after a long time, lightly said one word, “ .... yes.”
In fact, “well” wasn’t enough to describe how she was treated.
In these few days, it was like she was teleported to a few years back, to a time when he hadn’t betrayed her.
He was like a person on the edge, constantly cautious and on guard, carefully watching over her, as if she’d disappear in a blink.
Apart from not speaking a word about back then, his love and concern for her, made her originally cold heart slightly move.
But once she thought of his relentless att.i.tude and mercilessness back then, her heart hardened and froze over again.
But when he appeared again, it started to move again.
This back and forth movement, made her feel as if she was about to go crazy.
But even so, she couldn’t let go, she didn’t want to leave ….
Originally, she thought she did it for her hatred.
But after so many years, he only had to use his warm and gentle eyes, and she would fall apart.
She felt that this her, was especially useless.
Su Sheng lowered her eyes, the despair and grief in her eyes grew, “Miss Lou, do you think I’m very stupid?”
She clearly knew how merciless he was to her back then, so hateful, but every time she saw how regretful and upset he was, she felt like her heart softened.
Lou Qingwu shook her head, “You’re not stupid, you just …”
You just loved Mu Yunqing too much back then.
So now, you both love and hate.
But she only hated herself more.
“Take good care of yourself. Sometimes, you just have to follow your heart.”
If it was possible, she wished that she could be happy and not bring her hatred with her for the rest of her life.
In this life, that wasn’t the only option.
Su Sheng nodded her head, her eyes stayed lowered as her long eyelashes hid the emotions in her eyes.
She was uneasy, anxious and indecisive.
She wanted to take revenge, but she was also greedy for Mu Yunqing’s warmth.
If Mu Yunqing really …. really was worth her throwing herself for him again, then, could she really act as if ‘that’ never happened, back then?
Her mind flashed back to Mu Yunqing’s apathy back then and the warmth of today, she felt like her mind was about to split into two.
But in the end, she helplessly closed her eyes, “Miss Lou, I know.”
“Then that’s good.”
She was really afraid that she’d step onto the path of no return.
Originally, when she agreed for her to go meet Mu Yunqing again, it was because she felt like Mu Yunqing wasn’t completely emotionless towards her.
But if there was still affection between them, then there might have been something else that happened then.
As long as they could communicate well, maybe there would be a light at the end of the tunnel for them.
But if they can’t do that, and they only held onto their hatred, then they could only be destined for a sad ending.
But no matter what, there would be an ending and at least, when they left this world, they wouldn’t have any regrets.
Su Sheng sat calmly, as if she’d thought things through and decided on something.
She lifted her head up to look towards Lou Qingwu, and was just as she was about to say something.
But when she opened her mouth, her eyes carelessly fell on something and suddenly froze.
