âOr it could be for revenge!â
Hai Xiaotang froze for a moment.
She questioningly replied, âFor revenge? You meanâ¦â
âYes, for the sake of revenge against them!â Dongfang Hen nodded, as if he was speaking of someone elseâs story, âThe enemy is too formidable. Only with this method can I have the power to contend against them. No, I must also constantly get stronger in order to survive up until today. Thatâs why I said, all of this was obtained by repeatedly risking my life.â
Hai Xiaotang kept silent for quite a while.
Dongfang Hen laughed, âDo you feel sorry for my past?â
Hai Xiaotang came back to her senses, nodding, âYes, I do feel sorry.â
âCompared to me, isnât Dongfang Yu leading a very good life?â
Yes, their worlds were indeed as different as heaven and earth.
Ever since Dongfang Yu was born, he was an heir to a wealthy family.
All along his journey, he had never encountered any misfortuneâ¦
Compared to him, Dongfang Hen indeed lived a very miserable existence.
âBut itâs not Dongfang Yuâs fault!â Hai Xiaotang firmly defended Dongfang Yu, âIf thereâs anyone to blame, it should be your mother! She should not have transferred all her spite onto you. Itâs all her fault anyway. If I were her, I would never treat my child like this!â
Dongfang Hen raised an eyebrow, âIf you loved Dongfang Yu, but he loved another woman and even drove you and your child away for her, never wanting to see you again, wouldnât you hate him?â
âI would!â Hai Xiaotang replied without hesitation, âThereâs a catch though.â
Dongfang Hen looked a bit surprised when he heard her say âhateâ.
He thought that a girl like Hai Xiaotang would kindly say that she wouldnât hate.
Unexpectedly, she simply said she would hate.
Dongfang Hen asked with interest, âWhatâs the catch?â
âHe must have wronged me first, then I would hate. If it was initially my fault, then I have no reason to hate. Besides, even if I did hate, I wouldnât do this to my child. Using him as a tool for revenge!â The last sentence was delivered by Hai Xiaotang with extra force.
Dongfang Henâs eyes darkened, âIs it as simple as you have made it sound?â
âItâs the truth! Iâd rather die than let my child suffer in any way!â Hai Xiaotang emphasized seriously.
Dongfang Hen paused for a while, silent.
Then, just when Hai Xiaotang thought he had been moved, he suddenly laughed and said, âThatâs why I like you. Hai Xiaotang, be with me, Iâm serious!â
Hai Xiaotang: ââ¦â
â¦
Of course, there was no way Hai Xiaotang would ever agree to be with him.
Throughout the tens of hours on the plane, Dongfang Hen tried every method to please her, to entice her, yet she was unmoved.
Forget about him not liking her, even if he truly, deeply loved her, she still wouldnât be moved.
After all, thereâs only Dongfang Yu in her heart!
Whenever she thought of Dongfang Yu, Hai Xiaotang felt an awful ache.
She didnât know when she would get to see him again.
Maybe in this lifetime, they might hardly have the chance to meet again.
No, she must think of a way to escape!
But now, on the plane, she couldnât do anything, she could only eat and sleep, sleep and eatâ¦
Luckily, Dongfang Hen treated her quite well, without any maltreatment, he was even kind to her.
Otherwise, Hai Xiaotang would feel even more unbearably tormented.
However, she knew her good days were temporary. Dongfang Hen clearly stated that he would only give her two days to think it over â either be sold off by him, or agree to his proposal.
