Chapter 164: The Third Wheel

“Ye, you drank too much. Don’t talk about that in front of Madam Li!” Guan Jinyan looked up and glanced at Tang Xin indifferently as he cut off Ye Youyang’s words.

Tang Xin knew that they were echoing one another, as if they are trying to make her understand something.

But even if she understood, would Li Yunshen understand?

She thought that the three of them weren’t able to talk freely because she was here, and she needed some air.

“Sorry, I need to go to the bathroom.” She stood up and escaped from the room.

Li Yunshen, who had his head lowered to play with dice suddenly looked at the woman who disappeared and glared at Ye Youyang coldly in silence.

“Li, I didn’t expect you to bring her here today.” Guan Jinyan spoke first and looked at Li Yunshen as if he was trying to investigate his mind, “Judging from your actions, can we assume that you want us to acknowledge her?”

“…” Li Yunshen didn’t explain but continued to drink.

“Didn’t you Little Star resurrect? Why are you hesitating? Your life should go back on track just like how it was.” Ye Youyang persuaded.

“We’ve watched your pain and suffering on the way and now you can free yourself from it, so why don’t you?” Guan Jinyan said.

Li Yunshen remained silent and chugged more alcohol down, showing that he was struggling deeply.

“You are struggling because you are trapped by her weakness and helplessness. You feel like she’s the same as Little Star from years ago so you love the house and its crows, struggling whether you should let her go or not.” Guan Jinyan continued to clear the mess in his heart.

Li Yunshen stopped rolling the dice without arguing back.

Tang Xin came back and heard Guan Jinyan’s words clearly, she also saw his silent agreement.

So he did all those misunderstanding things because she was like Little Star from years ago, weak and helpless.

So he never actually treated her well — it was purely out of sympathy.

No wonder he was so certain when he said that he never treated her well!

“Xinxin, are you done?” Gu Lingfeng’s voice came out from the phone with covered speakers.

“Almost.” She sounded like she was sobbing and hung up. When she was about to go and tell Li Yunshen that she needed to leave now, a person suddenly appeared and stopped her in her tracks.

“Boss, this miss brought an invitation.” The guard brought someone up.

Li Yunshen saw Guan Jinyan and Ye Youyang exchanging a smile with each other before turning around. He looked up and he was shocked.

“Little Star, why are you here?” He quickly stood up and greeted her, figuring out who gave her the invitation.

“You didn’t tell me that there was such a fun party here, I thought you didn’t take me seriously!” Xia Zhixing smiled tenderly.

Li Yunshen was stumped for words, “You…forgive me?”

He looked careful and afraid that he would be disappointed and fell into Tang Xin’s eyes.

Her lips curved up bitterly. Only Xia Zhixing could make him show so many different expressions, only she could clear the deadness in his eyes and only she could make him worried and scared.

Xia Zhixing wore a sleeveless long dress that draped to the floor, graceful and delicate.

In fact, Xia Zhixing looked like the perfect match with him after she intentionally dressed up.

Xia Zhixing ran into his arms, “Brother Yun, I’m sorry for being so selfish, I shouldn’t have blamed you for what happened.”
