Chapter 982 - Fear Of Getting Caught.
Lin Xinyi flinched with her piercing voice. Her eyes went close on their own consciousness and everything flashed back from her memories.
How she ran into Feng Shufen for the first time to represent the hotel chain of Feng Internationals.
How she got attracted to him.
How she got rejected. And then how she still persevered even after his direct rejection.
Slowly and slowly, she remembered the process in which her attraction turned into an obsession. She remembered everything from the past. Nothing left behind the curtain. Everything appeared back on the surface.
Li Xue was not wrong to say that Feng Shufen was that flame to which unconditionally anyone would get attracted. Because there was once the time when she was the same wasp who has staked her everything just to get near that flame. But ended up just causing her end.
She got back the flashes of how her craziness got her involved with the witch to whom she happily pledged her soul. Without even thinking that what the witch was doing would not be helping her in any way. Rather would only get her pushed into the pool of guilt and regrets.
"I didn't ruin you. I didn't. Rather it was you who used me to get things done for which I would have always regretted if committed. Should I remind you of those things? The sin that you wanted me to do that night?" Suddenly opening her eyes, Lin Xinyi sharply retaliated.
Lin Xinyi might be immature to think that the woman was on her side five years back. But now, she knows well that a woman like her could never bring good to anyone. If she can't even treat her stepson as her own, she was still a stranger to her.
Now thinking she really wants to laugh at herself. Like how in the past did she get her beliefs on her? How did she even think that this woman would bring her close to the man, her heart desired?
Zhen Qinrou stared at the girl and felt her nerves aching. Just the sight of her was reminding her of how she was defeated by Yun Yuchun again. How she has fallen hard on the floor, just when she was on the verge of achieving the peaks in the Feng family!
"You still have the strength to talk back?" She spurted out, as walking ahead of a step she harshly tugged on the arms of Lin Xinyi, inflicting her the pain. "It was you who wanted to get yourself in the life of my dear stepson. I just showed you an easy way. If I was so wrong in it, why did you readily accept when I asked you?"
"I was immature at that time and you took advantage of my immaturity. Don't think that I don't know why you wanted me to do all that. I have known it all and that's why has run away. Run far away so that all your plans to ruin President Feng would fail." Lin Xinyi revealed and then removing the grasp of the woman from her arm, she pushed her back. "And I was happy to know that you didn't achieve your goal that night. You failed in it."
"You …" Seeing the girl courageously accepting the offense against her, Zhen Qinrou felt the surge of anger inside her. Taking a step forward, she charged to put a hard slap on the face of the girl. But just when she thought she could strike her, her hands were held mid-air as Lin Xinyi twisted it in her grasp.
"Ahh … Bi*ch … let go of my hand," Zhen Qinrou cried but her pain-filled expression didn't melt Lin Xinyi's stern gaze. Her hold remained tough on her as she stared right into the older woman's eyes to warn.
"Ma'am, please don't dare to do that again. Never in the past, neither in the present and nor in the future … never will I allow anyone to lay their hands on me. So, it would only be better for you to hold your boundaries".
Lin Xinyi warned and Zhen Qinrou just stared at her, gritting her teeth.
"I might have been very polite to you in the past as I said I was immature. But now both time and things have changed. I have matured for good and will not hold any politeness to the shrewd woman like you. So, leave the very instance you get the chance otherwise, later don't blame me for being more impolite and courageous."
Lin Xinyi said more while finally releasing the woman from her hold. Though earlier when she has seen the lady coming to her, she was scared that everything from the past will appear on the surface. But now that it has already been done, making her remember every bit of it, she no longer has to get scared of it. Rather it was her time to hold the firmness.
Because the past could never be changed, but the present was in her control where she would no longer allow anyone to push her to the wrong.
"You are scaring me?" Zhen Qinruo said, rubbing her skin around the wrist that has already turned red. "You think you are capable to do so?"
Lin Xinyi smiled while folding her arms over her chest to say with nonchalance. "I don't know but maybe yes. You never know if I hold any cards against you from the past."
The expression on Zhen Qinrou's face changed as she looked at the girl with mixed feelings. "What do you mean?" She asked and the layer of fear was evident in her eyes.
Lin Xinyi smiled looking at her like that. It was rightly said, when people are wrong, they could never be carefree. Every time or the other, they would feel that there might be a chance of them getting caught.
"I am not liable to explain to you the meaning, Ms. Zhen. Kindly leave before I become the one to lose the patience. And believe me losing the patience might not serve you any good. So …" Lin Xinyi said as gesturing her towards the exit she added, "Please leave when you have time."
She said and Zhen Qinrou felt there was no way for her to intimidate the woman at the moment. "I am going now. But don't feel that I will let you survive that easily. You will have to pay for betraying me.. Mind it."
