Chapter 165 - News Of Dad

Then, Tang Xin saw a happy smile on Li Yunshen’s cold and grim face as he held the woman in his arms gently and whispered to her.

She didn’t know why but she almost heard her heart shatter into pieces.

Her heart was still there, but why did it shatter? What did it shatter for?

The phone in her handbag buzzed again and she knew that she couldn’t drag it on any longer. She adjusted her expressions and walked in.

When she appeared, the smiles on Guan Jinyan and Ye Youyang’s faces disappeared as they looked at her worriedly.

Tang Xin ignored their strange glances and straightened her back. She walked behind Li Yunshen and summoned her courage, “I…”

“Xinxin, you are here too?”

Xia Zhixing was alerted as soon as she heard Tang Xin’s voice. She broke free from Li Yunshen’s hug and greeted her happily yet awkwardly.

“Mhm.” Tang Xin forced a pale smile and nodded towards her, then looked at Li Yunshen who was looking at Xia Zhixing openly, “I need to talk to you about something.”

“What is it?” His cold tone of voice was completely different from how he spoke to Xia Zhixing.

“I have something urgent to attend to and I want to leave first.” Tang Xin sought his permission and her eyes were filled with a thirst for freedom.

However, his words made her heart freeze.

“What do you possibly need to do?” Is she going to see Gu Xingyun? Did she think that he wouldn’t know just because he didn’t ask her about it?

He looked at her coldly and mockingly, and she felt like his glance pierced her heart.

“In your eyes, I’m not worthy to have kinship, friendship, love, and now I can’t even have something I need to do?” Her eyes were misty but she smiled lightly and miserably.

Li Yunshen only stared at her in silence.

Tang Xin finally broke down and tears gushed out of her eyes, staining her whole face.

“Why won’t you let me go? I don’t owe you anything!” She cried and ran outside.

She was familiar with the villa and she knew the quickest route to the door.

She was scared that he’d order someone to force her back, but the one who chased after her wasn’t him, but Xia Zhixing.

“Xinxin, wait!”

Xia Zhixing’s voice forced her to stop, perhaps because they would’ve been best friends for the rest of their lifetimes if Li Yunshen didn’t exist.

“Xinxin, I’m sorry! You suffered so much because of me, if possible, I…”

“You what? Do you want to show off how good you are?” Tang Xin spun around abruptly and her lips curved upwards coldly, “You received a man’s infatuated protection regardless of whether you were dead or alive, and you are making someone else pay a painful price for you! Do you think that ‘I’m sorry’ can make me forget about it? What a joke! If you really want to make up for it, then disappear, disappear forever! A person who should be dead shouldn’t show up again!”

“Xinxin, you hate me?” Xia Zhixing widened her eyes in shock as she stumbled backward.

The Tang Xin she knew was so kind and gentle, she always spoke softly and never said anything rough. The only way she’d say this was if Tang Xin actually loathed her.

“How can I not hate you? Even if you said I became like this all because of you and you are becoming the third wheel shamelessly and ruining someone’s family, wouldn’t you think that I should hate you?”

Xia Zhixing’s face was ghastly pale, “I’m the third wheel? Ruining someone’s family? Xinxin, didn’t you say that you hated Brother Yun and wanted to leave him? Didn’t you rather pick death than staying with Brother Yun when you faced death?”
