Chapter 309: Lie

??

Mr. Bai’s pupils dilated and his face was filled with pain. Mrs. Bai’s face was filled with despair. Suddenly, she took a step forward and knelt on the ground. “Ji Yan, just take pity on us. Take pity on the hearts of all parents in the world. You can’t let her die in vain!”

When the onlookers saw this scene, they all raised their phones. They whispered to the people around them, “In any case, it’s still a human life. This young lady is still so young! Her parents don’t look young anymore. How can they bear to reject her like this?!”

“Sigh, if there’s such an infatuated young lady who likes me, I definitely can’t bear to treat her like this!”

Everyone pointed, dissatisfied with Ji Yan’s rejection. However, Ji Yan’s back was straight and he didn’t care about these rumors at all. With a calm and composed expression, he said, “Mrs. Bai, in terms of age, I’m a junior and I’m not worthy of your kneeling.” He moved to the side to avoid her, his large hand firmly holding onto Mrs. Bai’s hand. Mrs. Bai wanted to kneel again, but she was firmly held back by Ji Yan. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t kneel.

Ji Yan smiled and said again, “I hope Mrs. Bai won’t force me.”

“Mr. Ji, why are you so heartless?” Mr. Bai still didn’t want to give up. He couldn’t help but lower his voice, “Even if, even if you’re just lying to Youyou? As long as you agree first, our family is willing to give you some benefits on the project or give you some shares. Mr. Ji... Youyou’s life is on the line. You...”

.

“Mr. Bai, if it were a few years ago, I would have agreed to your conditions.” Ji Yan curled his lips. His cold voice carried a hint of mirth. “But now that I’ve met my wife, I’ll tell you the truth. Even if it’s a lie, I’m not willing to.” No matter how great the benefits, no matter how much wealth, if he didn’t have Shen Hanxing to share it with him, what was the point? Even if it was just a tiny bit, he didn’t want to mistreat Shen Hanxing and make her unhappy.

The two of them continued to hold hands. Shen Hanxing could feel the warmth of Ji Yan’s palm. The scorching heat of his palm made her heart heat up as well. It was as if she had fallen into boiling lava. This was a very novel experience for Shen Hanxing. She was chosen by someone, and she was firmly protected. At this moment. She didn’t need to do anything. He was already standing in front of her, blocking all the wind and rain outside.

Shen Hanxing blinked her eyes. Even though she knew that the situation wasn’t appropriate. She couldn’t help but smile.

“Ji Yan, do you really care so much about Shen Hanxing?” Bai Youyou’s eyes were red as she had been paying attention to the development of the matter. She couldn’t help but cry out, “Could it be that my life isn’t enough for you to lie for me?”

“I’ve said before, life or death is your own choice.” Ji Yan’s attitude became even colder and harder when he faced Bai Youyou. He said bluntly, “I’m standing here today because my wife is trying to save you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have come up to take a look at you.”

...

“No, it shouldn’t be like this. Ji Yan, how could you treat me like this?” Bai Youyou couldn’t believe it as she cried until her snot and tears flowed down her face. She cried and complained, “I’ve loved you for thirteen years. Just because I was absent for a short while, you treat me like this. It’s not fair! It’s not fair!”

“Miss Bai, love is never fair.” Shen Hanxing’s eyes were cold. The weather was too cold. When she opened her mouth to speak, the hot air that she exhaled turned into white mist. Behind the white mist... Shen Hanxing’s eyes were cold. “Not everything is about first come, first served. Love isn’t the only thing in a person’s life. It’s time for you to stop. Look at your parents. They have been living in luxury all their lives. No matter where they go, they are respected entrepreneurs. But now, for you, they have to kneel and beg others. How can you bear to do that?!”

Shen Hanxing couldn’t help but raise her voice. “Seeing your parents bow and scrape for you and beg people your age, do you really feel good? Do you think that you can get the love you want in exchange for this?”

This was ridiculous! How could someone wantonly hurt their parents who loved them so much? Shen Hanxing had never had a father’s love. Her father only cared about benefits and it was disgusting. Her mother had died too early and she could only feel her mother’s love from the things that her mother had left behind. Bai Youyou clearly already had the love of such precious parents, yet she wanted to die for someone who didn’t like her.
