Mo Jin was stunned but she was still smiling. âRight, a beast like him loves himself the most. Why? He didnât want to take responsibility for you after playing with you? You have nothing to complain about though, you had a child long before you were with him, Yi Jingxi is even older than Luosang.â
âXu Zhengxuan never touched me, never.â
Chu Lei turned to laugh. Half of her face was covered in blood, it was a gory sight. âHe always only loved you, Mo Jin.â
â...â
Mo Jinâs cold expression froze.
âIâm serious.â Chu Lei knew that Mo Jin might not believe her but she insisted, âI was only a tool that he used to provoke you. Although he took me everywhere he went, he never once touched me. He wanted you to be jealous, he was calling out your name even when he was drunk.â
âImpossible.â
Mo Jinâs mind was blank. She tried hard to recall the series of events in the past but it had been too long. Everything had blurred into one. All she remembered was that Xu Zhengxuan fell in love with someone else and betrayed her. It was so difficult to cope with the hurt back then.She wouldnât see her mother-in-law and her husband. She had quit school at a young age to have a child. She would only go to bed at around three in the morning every day while her husband was flirting with a female student.
What kind of life was she living then?
Now Chu Lei was telling her that it might all have been a misunderstanding between the two of them?
âYou donât have to lie to me just to get me to let you go, Iâm just playing tennis with you. Iâm not planning to do anything more, are you going to resort to lying?â
âIâm not.â Chu Leiâs tears were mixed with her blood. âEver since you left, he was broken for a long while. He wouldnât come to classes nor would he talk to me, he left me with another teacher for guidance...â
âMum, are you telling the truth?â
The door to the tennis court flew open. Yi Jingxi walked in and his body was shaking, his eyes were bloodshot.
Chu Lei was shocked to see him, a little scared as well. She fell on her bum when she tried to pick herself up. âJingxi, how did you arrive so quickly?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYeah, I was worried that something would happen to you. I sped all the way here.â
Yi Jingxi looked at her in disbelief, every step he took, he looked more lost and confused.
âMa, didnât you tell me that Xu Zhuengxuan... raped you?â it was as if someone had gripped Yi Jingxi by his throat. He felt breathless and suffocated, he could only speak in a whisper as if someone was silencing him.
Chu Leiâs face was as pale as a sheet. Her battered body was suddenly numb. She could only avoid his gaze.
âDidnât you tell me that Xu Zhengxuan forced you to do such things? You told me that that was the reason why you did those things,â Yi Jingxi asked again. He was like a lost traveller on a lonely journey, he found it difficult to control his emotions.
Chu Lei turned and looked down. Mo Jin looked at Yi Jingxi and looked at Chu Lei again, it made sense to her then.
Mo Jin asked, âChu Lei, this was the lie that you fed your son?â
âI donât know if you are telling me the truth or feeding me lies, but I know for a fact that you fancied Xu Zhengxuan back then. I only found out today that you already had a kid then, seems like you were married too.â
Chu Lei fell silent, her head on the ground.
Her blood dripping to the ground.
