The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.
Chapter 753 Uncovering the Scars
Chapter 753 Uncovering the Scars
Before his death, Mr. Fu had been secretly funding and even leading some extremely cutting-edge research, which even teetered on the edge of gray areas, including life sciences, the field of consciousness, and even some areas that cannot be explained by common sense.
As his closest assistant, Li Xiang knew a little bit about the subject, but that was enough to make him more accepting of the "unbelievable" than most people.
Could it be... could it be that those scientific theories have succeeded?
The thought made his heart pound; he felt both horrified and overwhelmed by an indescribable mix of excitement and sorrow.
He looked at Bai Wanwan again, his gaze more probing, but his tone carried a barely perceptible, almost respectful, probing tone: "Miss Bai...? You are Miss Bai, right?"
The way he addressed her, and the sight of his slightly reddened eyes, stirred something within Bai Wanwan.
But she had already decided to sever ties with Fu Jinshen and his world.
"Who I am is none of your business!" Her voice remained distant, even carrying a hint of dismissal. "You've trespassed on my property. If you don't get out, I'm calling the police!"
“Miss Bai! Please don’t be angry!” Li Xiang said hurriedly, his tone urgent, even pleading. “We meant no harm. This house… after you disappeared, Mr. Fu was worried that it would fall into disrepair if no one looked after it, so he… so he asked me to come and check on it often to keep it as it is. He just… he just couldn’t bear to part with it…”
"I don't need it!" Bai Wanwan interrupted him, her words resolute, each one like an ice bead hitting the ground. "Whether it's you or Fu Jinshen, I don't need you to interfere in my life! The past is over, I'm doing very well now, please get out of my sight immediately and never appear in front of me again!"
Her refusal was ruthless, her gaze sharp and resolute, a stark contrast to the bright and gentle Bai Wanwan of my memory.
After sensing the female's anger and rejection, Zhu Xiu stepped forward, completely shielding Bai Wanwan behind him. His cold gaze fell on Li Xiang like a tangible blade, and the silent pressure made the air freeze.
Yin Ze also quietly adjusted his position, blocking another angle from which Li Xiang might approach.
Li Xiang was forced to take a half step back by Bai Wanwan's resolute attitude and the oppressive feeling brought by the two males.
He looked at Bai Wanwan's unfamiliar and wary face, at the two outstanding men beside her who clearly saw themselves as her protectors, and then at the old house that President Fu had silently kept "as is" for years, waiting for the return of an owner whose chances were so slim as to be almost nonexistent...
He was overwhelmed by a profound sense of absurdity and loss.
Mr. Fu...did you see that?
She really... came back.
However, it seems she has already entered a completely new life without you.
Looking at Zhu Xiu and Yin Ze, who stood like two guardian deities behind Bai Wanwan, exuding an aura of authority, and seeing the natural closeness between Bai Wanwan and them, Li Xiang felt a surge of indignation for President Fu.
Mr. Fu has sacrificed so much for her, even risking his life.
“Miss Bai, you have a deep misunderstanding about President Fu.” Li Xiang’s voice was filled with suppressed excitement as he tried to penetrate the wall Bai Wanwan had built around her heart. “The person President Fu loves has always been you, and that has never changed!”
These words were like a fuse, instantly igniting Bai Wanwan's pent-up anger.
Fu Jinshen, this name, along with everything and everyone related to him, is like a vine trying to entwine herself again and invade her life that she had finally managed to find peace.
The restlessness that had just been soothed by the warmth of the ancient town suddenly surged back with even greater force.
A misunderstanding? Love for her?
Fu Jinshen clearly chose to marry another woman for his career, yet he still pretended to be deeply in love with her, and even approached her and deceived her in another world under a different identity!
This "wanting both" behavior, along with the "you've misunderstood him" rhetoric from those around her, disgusted her utterly.
“Yin Ze,” she said, no longer looking at Li Xiang, her voice as cold as ice, “throw him out.” Yin Ze had been waiting for these words.
His movements were as fast as lightning. Before Li Xiang could react, he had already grabbed the back of his suit collar and effortlessly lifted this tall, adult man up like a chicken, then threw him out of the building entrance.
Bai Wanwan rubbed her temples in frustration.
Her good mood was completely ruined by Li Xiang's actions.
However, Li Xiang's persistence exceeded her expectations.
He was like a persistent shadow. He no longer tried to get close, but kept a distance and attempted to communicate with words, his eyes filled with urgency.
"Miss Bai, let's talk, just five minutes..."
"President Fu really..."
Every time, before he could finish speaking, Yin Ze would throw him aside expressionlessly.
Their movements were swift and decisive, attracting the attention of many passersby, but Yin Ze and Zhu Xiu's aura was too strong, and no one dared to step forward and meddle.
For two consecutive days, Bai Wanwan, Zhu Xiu, and Yin Ze went to the mall multiple times, buying some food and toys to bring back to the Beast World to share with their families.
When they returned to the residential area, Li Xiang was once again "invited" away by Yin Ze, and he staggered a few steps before regaining his balance.
He looked very haggard, with stubble on his chin and his suit was wrinkled.
The series of setbacks and his indignation at Fu Jinshen's misfortune caused him to lose control of his emotions, and his eyes instantly turned red.
"Miss Bai, you have no conscience!"
"Li Xiang," her voice was cold and filled with extreme impatience, "Fu Jinshen is no longer in this world, yet you haunt me like a ghost every day. What exactly do you want?"
Li Xiang suddenly looked up and asked urgently, "Miss Bai, do you know that President Fu is gone?"
"Yes, I saw it." Bai Wanwan's tone was flat, even deliberately tinged with indifference. "So you can leave now, right? He and I may have had some relationship before, but it ended a long time ago. Now we are separated by death, and we owe each other nothing. I hope that everyone and everything related to him will never appear in my life again."
Her words were like icy knives, piercing deeply into Li Xiang's heart.
His face turned deathly pale as he stared at her in disbelief, as if he were seeing her for the first time. "Miss Bai, how...how could you say that? This is so cruel to President Fu!"
Bai Wanwan stopped in her tracks as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.
She turned around and looked directly at Li Xiang. "Li Xiang, you know best what really happened! Fu Jinshen chose his career and his marriage alliance. What right do you have to stand here and accuse me of being cruel?"
Her words were forceful and resounding, each syllable carrying the pent-up grievances and anger of a long time.
Like a scar being ripped open, revealing the bloody wound that she had kept hidden in her heart.
