“I, I know that you were just saying those words out of anger,” Lu Shaoyang’s face was pale as he stammered, “I know that I’ve done a lot of things wrong. Hanxing, I was just captivated for a moment. I know my mistake now…”

“Shhh… I don’t want to hear your fake apology,” Shen Hanxing placed her index finger on her lips, interrupting Lu Shaoyang’s words. Her voice was still clear even after using the microphone. There was an unconcealable coldness in her voice. “Lu Shaoyang, I told you long ago that I’ve never liked you. I’ll tell you one last time. I’ve never had feelings for you.” After she said that, there was some doubt in her tone, but there was also pity. “I’m very curious. Why are you so ordinary yet confident? How can you compare to Mr. Ji? What makes you think I would give up on the Ji Yan to be with you?”

It was ridiculous.

Seeing the disdain in Shen Hanxing’s eyes, Lu Shaoyang felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. At this moment, he felt like he was walking on an icy plain with no clothes. In an instant, his heart was cold.

Before Shen Hanxing could finish her words, she held the microphone and looked calmly at the media below the stage. “Mr. Ji and I have an excellent relationship. I don’t want anyone to disturb us, and I don’t want this ridiculous farce to happen again. It will make me troubled and annoyed.”

“No, it shouldn’t be like this…” Lu Shaoyang screamed in pain, “Hanxing, don’t be like this. You’re just saying this out of anger. I already know my mistake. Can you not be like this? Let’s start again…” He was heartbroken and wondered why Shen Hanxing had to treat him like that.

“Brother Shaoyang, didn’t you hear what Shen Hanxing said? She trampled on your sincerity!” Su Ling couldn’t take it anymore. She pounced on him and cried, “she doesn’t love you. Why do you still love her? What’s so good about her? How am I not better than her? I’ve loved you for so many years!” Su Ling’s eyes filled with unwillingness and resentment. She spoke as she wept, “a woman like her is not worthy of your love at all, Brother Shaoyang!”

“Don’t you ever condemn Hanxing!” Lu Shaoyang had gone insane. He fiercely pushed Su Ling away, “you don’t know her. Shut up!” Lu Shaoyang knew his mistake. He should not have backed down and compromised with his family again and again. Even when the internet was full of rumors about Shen Hanxing, even if he knew how much pressure Shen Hanxing was under, he still didn’t dare to stand up and defend her. He didn’t dare to protect Shen Hanxing firmly. But he felt it was human’s nature to be afraid. Humans were not saints and sages. He thought he had made a mistake and Shen Hanxing should forgive him.

“Hanxing, don’t be angry,” Lu Shaoyang struggled to get up from the ground and grabbed Shen Hanxing’s skirt with a pleading face. He pleaded in a low voice, “I did something wrong, but I sincerely regret it. I apologize to you. If you’re still unsatisfied, you can tell me what you want me to do. Please don’t say such cruel words. It hurts my feelings, Hanxing…”

“Are you deaf?” Shen Hanxing pulled her skirt from Lu Shaoyang’s grip. She looked at Lu Shaoyang coldly. “How often do I have to say it before you hear me? You have never made me fall in love with you from the beginning to the end, and… If apologizing is useful, why do we need the police in this world?” She bent down and took the microphone away. She lowered her voice and said, “Lu Shaoyang, do you think I will forgive you just because you apologize? No, I will never forgive you. Your current repentance is because your schemes and tricks did not succeed in winning my heart.” Her eyes were clear and bright. It was as if she could see through all the filth in the world. “Would you stop and not touch me if Ji Yan hadn’t arrived in time at the Shen family’s banquet? Would you not use such dirty methods to get me?”

Lu Shaoyang looked at Shen Hanxing in a daze. He knew what she was talking about Shen Yong tricking her into returning to the Shen family and drugging her. Lu Shaoyang asked himself if he would stop if Ji Yan hadn’t arrived in time. Lu Shaoyang wouldn’t. Lu Shaoyang knew that doing so would bring Shen Hanxing into a bottomless abyss, but he agreed without hesitation. He said that he would treat Shen Hanxing well in the future. In the end, it was just that he loved her but couldn’t get her. He would do anything to get her, and he could even use this to get the Ji Corporation.
