Pei Yansi had repeatedly confird with Shen Heyu several tis, but she was unwilling to leave with him. She insisted on staying, and so Pei Yansi eventually slowly raised his head, lifted his foot, and walked away. Watching his retreating figure, Shen Heyu felt her heart suddenly sink, as if plunging into the depth of the sea, where not a single ray of light could be seen.
She raised her head to look at the departing silhouette of Pei Yansi; his back looked so desolate. But then, Lu Yi grabbed Shen Heyu’s wrist and dragged her back into the room. Soon after, there was a click as he locked the door.
"Alright, stop with that gloomy face. Soon, I’ll make you happy. Do you know, Shen Heyu? I’ve liked you for so long. Watching you with Pei Yansi back then made so sad. But fate hasn’t been unkind to . The two of you broke up so quickly."
"Finally, I can be by your side. I’ll take care of you and Yuexue, even though Yuexue is the child of a man I detest. Still, all this ti, I’ve treated her as if she were my own, just as I would care for a daughter."
"I’ve done so much already, but you never even looked at properly. In the end, I had no choice, no other option but to make a deal with a devil like Chen Wenzhou. Fortunately, this path I’ve taken hasn’t turned out too badly."
"Because ultimately, I’ll still get you. Now the two of us are legally husband and wife. As long as we consummate our marriage, I’m sure you’ll eventually settle down and stay with to live a simple life."
Lu Yi pounced on Shen Heyu, pushing her onto the bed and savoring her scent. Drawn to Shen Heyu, she instinctively turned her head away, not wanting to look at Lu Yi’s face.
Lu Yi was initially excited, but when he noticed that Shen Heyu was unwilling to even glance at him, he angrily grabbed her chin, forcibly turning her face back towards him.
He said angrily to Shen Heyu, "Shen Heyu, drop that suicidal expression. Whom are you trying to show that face? Don’t ruin my mood. I’ve paid such a high price, obtained the antidote to save your daughter’s life. I am your savior."
"Is this how you treat your lifesaver? Cheer up a little, smile for to see."
Shen Heyu’s chin was forcibly turned by Lu Yi, and she had no choice but to face him. But upon seeing his fierce and distorted face for no more than three seconds, Shen Heyu could not help but close her eyes.
"Shen Heyu, what do you an by this? Open your eyes right now, look at properly, and see how I will possess you, own you."
"Today, if you please , then you can naturally get the antidote for your daughter. If you would rather watch your daughter suffer and die in the hospital, you can continue with that deathly expression."
Taking a deep breath, Shen Heyu slowly opened her eyes. The sight of the twisted face before her made her stomach churn with the urge to vomit.
"Lu Yi, you bastard, don’t go too far. You originally told that as long as I slept with you once, you would give the antidote. Now that I’ve agreed, you’re making more demands and insisting I smile for you. Let tell you, I am not one to sell smiles."
Shen Heyu had co here unwillingly, not to ntion she had just struggled with Pei Yansi. Her reluctance was even stronger now, but she had no choice; she had to grit her teeth and keep going.
"Of course, you’re not one to sell smiles, but I am your husband, and you must do whatever I say. Now I’m telling you to smile, and you must smile for . If you don’t, then after this, you will only get half of the antidote."
"The doctor probably hasn’t told you yet, but the poison in your daughter’s system is very deep, so she’ll need a complete antidote to save her life. If you end up with only half an antidote, your daughter’s survival isn’t certain."
Shen Heyu heard these words and, in a fury, shoved Lu Yi away, her appearance disheveled as she stood up from the bed.
"Lu Yi, you are really going too far. I have already done everything you asked of , yet you keep pushing to the edge. Did you never intend to give that antidote from the very beginning?"
Lu Yi had done so much; he had even calculated against Yuexue’s life. Shen Heyu could no longer trust him; he had lost all credibility with her.
"Since I’ve promised you the antidote, I will definitely give it to you, provided that you cooperate obediently and make happy today. Then you can feed your daughter the antidote you’ll receive."
Lu Yi, watching Shen Heyu’s proud deanor, smiled because he knew that as long as he had the antidote in his hands, she could never escape his control. He took steps toward Shen Heyu, who stood frozen, her limbs ice-cold.
Lu Yi admired Shen Heyu’s beautiful face as he moved step by step toward her, reaching out to touch her cheek.
Just as his hand was about to touch Shen Heyu’s face, her cell phone in her pocket vibrated.
She pulled out her phone to see a call from Doctor Gu. Without a second thought, she answered and walked forward, heading to the balcony area.
Lu Yi’s outstretched hand touched nothing. He turned his head, frowning, and watched Shen Heyu’s retreating figure, grinding his teeth violently.
This woman, facing death, still refused to cooperate. Did she really want to watch her daughter suffer tornt from the disease with her own eyes?
Shen Heyu didn’t bother with Lu Yi’s expression as she went to the balcony to take the call, "Doctor Gu, are you calling because sothing happened to Yuexue?"
"That’s right, I’m calling to discuss your daughter’s situation with you. Yuexue’s condition has worsened, so co to the hospital right now. There are things I must clarify with you in person."
"Okay, I’ll be there right away. Please wait a mont." Shen Heyu rushed past Lu Yi, panicking to leave, but as soon as she tried to depart, Lu Yi imdiately grabbed her hand.
"Shen Heyu, where do you think you’re going? Don’t forget what you ca here to do today. Do you really think I’ll just hand over the antidote when things haven’t been settled?"
Shen Heyu shook off his hand forcefully, her face pale, but her eyes were exceptionally spirited and resolute.
"Doctor Gu just called to inform that Yuexue’s condition has deteriorated; he asked to go to the hospital now. Whatever business we have can wait until later. Besides, you have the antidote in your hand, and I cannot run away."
