Chapter 151: I need you in my life
My fists were clenched, “You don’t understand? Allow to make it clearer. You told Suyang Xu Chuqiao had sent soone to investigate you. So, you wanted him to keep an eye out on . But you had no idea that the person would be soone who he had dated before. Suyang told you he knows . As long as you “accidentally” told about your past and begged after, I’ll soften and decide to keep the secret hidden forever. You’ll be able to get what you want and also use to help you get rid of the misunderstanding between you and Xu Chuqiao. Na Wei’s letter would be the key for helping you nd your relationship with your son, am I correct?”
It has been three years. Suyang wasn’t the only one who could speculate. He can’t manipulate like he used to.
Hearing my words, Yao Youfan sighed and touched her heart. She regretfully stated, “You’re actually quite different from Suyang’s description of you.”
“The person he thought I was is gone. I’m no longer the person I was three years ago.”
“So what is your next step?”
“I will tell my client that the will is real. I will tell him everything without missing a word. This is my job. I am devoted to my occupation.”
“Do you know what happens if you go against ? It’s not sothing you can handle.”
To , Yao Youfan’s words sounded very childish. This wasn’t so gangster movie, “You’re not the first person who’ve tried to threaten . People in my field are often threatened. Anyhow, I’m going to leave now. If I were you, I would think of a counterasure to deal with Xu Chuqiao’s interrogation.”
I left the blank Yao Youfan where she was and left emotionlessly.
When I left the house, I realized I was still wearing a scarf around my face....surprisingly I was able to put up such a powerful act with my ridiculous appearance.
I roughly removed the scarf off my face and angrily stared at my mirror’s reflection.
Suyang! Humph... I had underestimated him. I almost fell into his trap again. For a mont, I actually considered hiding the truth for Yao Youfan. It would’ve been what he wanted. Knowing this, I felt a burning anger.
I violently kicked an empty can by my feet. The sound of tal crashing against a wall rang in my ear.
Could he have gotten back with to help Yao Youfan? Suyang actually lied to for her. Perhaps he wasn’t what he said he was. Maybe he still hated and wanted to get revenge.
My mind was a ss. I didn’t have any written evidence, but I took out the recording device from my pocket. It was running the whole ti. I finally turned it off. Earlier, I turned it on the mont Yao Youfan entered the house.
My hands were shaky. I completed my task, but my heart was suffering. I was experiencing the feeling of loss from three years ago. It was slowly devouring my flesh, blood, and spirit.
In the afternoon, I went to Xu Chuqiao’s office and submitted my report to him. I told him the truth about the will and gave him the USB recording of my conversation with Yao Youfan. It didn’t matter whether he believed or not. I have completed my mission.
Now, whatever that happens in the Xu family was no longer my issue. It was Xu Chuqiao who wanted to find out. He had to take responsibility for his decision. As for , I had my own issues to deal with.

It was nightti. I silently sat on the couch as I waited for Suyang to return ho. I didn’t turn on any lights. Perhaps, my heart was only able to seek peace in the darkness.
Earlier in the afternoon, I was furious when I had figured out the truth. But I’ve cald down a lot since then.
I’m much better! Much better now! It’s fine. It’s fine! I comforted myself.
After reflecting deeply, I decided to let this go.
Wasn’t it strange? I was betrayed by my lover... initially, I had wanted to pack everything and leave. But the mont I picked up the luggage, I realized the thought of losing Suyang again was more painful than the betrayal itself.
Won. We are such emotional creatures.
I could hear the password being pressed.
But, the door didn’t open. Instead, Suyang started to knock on the door. He probably knew what happened earlier today.
Honestly, we were both stressed and didn’t know how to face each other. But I’ve already decided. I wasn’t sure what Suyang had in mind though.
“I’ll give you this one chance... you better grasp it....” I whispered. Then, I stood in front of the door. I didn’t make any incentive to open the door. Instead, I yelled, “Co in yourself.”
Suyang sounded surprise, “You are ok if I enter?”
“Do you want to enter?”
“Please give a chance to explain myself.”
I sighed and leaned against the door. “What do you want to explain? Yao Youfan or our issue?”
Suyang was speaking to from the other side of the door. It was actually effective because it sounded like he was very apologetic, “I’m sorry.”
“What are you sorry for? You didn’t do anything wrong. I’m the one who’s wrong. I trusted you like a fool.”
“I just wanted everyone to have their desired outco. That’s why...”
“That’s why you used ?” I cut Suyang off, “The whole world could use or lie to and I could choose to forgive or hate the person. But Suyang, you can’t lie to . When it cos to you, I have no power.”
Suyang tapped the door with a rhythm, “I wasn’t using you. I just wanted to solve this issue in the best way possible. However, I realized my thod was wrong and I’ve hurt you.”
Oh... my personality is too rushed! I can’t hold it in anymore. Being separated by the door was giving too much anxiety.
I suddenly twisted the door knob. The mont I opened the door, I was faced with Suyang’s distressed pupils. I quickly turned and avoided his gaze, “Enter and talk.”
Suyang followed behind .
“Why did you lie to ? For the past few days, you were helping Yao Youfan all along, right? How can I decipher what you said was true or not?”
“I didn’t do it intentionally. Do you rember the day we t? I was called in by the chairman. She told the new hiree was Xu Chuqiao’s eyes. She wanted to keep an eye on you.”
“Continue.” The whole ti, my back was facing Suyang.
“As for everything else, you already know. But everything I’ve said to you is the truth. I admit that I was trying to solve the problem by assuming you were still the sa person you were three years ago. But three years have gone by, and I’ve forgotten that we’ve both changed.”
I bit my lips and trembled a little, “Yes, we’ve changed. What do you think of the Lin Yixin now?”
“Then what do you think of the Suyang now?”
I spread out my hands, “I was able to see through your plan. That ans, I understand you. You were like this in the past. You didn’t change much. If anything, I’ve beco more sensitive.”
“So you’re saying.....” Suyang stood in front of and grabbed my hand.
“I only want to know one thing. Please think about it deeply before you reply. Suyang, do you actually love or hate ? Everything is so blurred that I can’t tell the difference. Like I’ve said, the whole world could lie to , but you can’t. I can forgive the whole world, but I wouldn’t want to forgive you.” I gazed into Suyang’s eyes. I’ve never been more sincere and serious than this.
“I feel the sa way. You should understand that both love and hate are very intense and twisted emotions. I admit when I first saw you, I felt hatred. I recall the woman who left without saying a word. But the hatred only lasted for a second. Afterwards, aside from missing you every passing second, I was loving you. Sotis, I feel like such a pathetic person. Why do I hang myself on your tree? But I cannot control myself. I think I really need you in my life.”
After Suyang was done speaking, I didn’t say anything else. I leaned forward and pressed my lips against his. No more words were necessary. It was enough as long as he loved .
Love was powerful enough to dissolve all our unpleasant conflicts. So may say I am a stupid woman. But for Suyang, I am willing to be stupid.
Suyang seed surprised by my initiation. “So.....”
“I’m only giving you this one chance because I love you.” I told Suyang in his face.
Suyang lifted up and carried into the bedroom.
Just as he was at his peak of desire, I suddenly shoved away. I gave him a cunning smile, “Today, you’re sleeping by yourself. I’m going to sleep in the living room.”
“What?!” Suyang was stunned. It was as if his eyes were yelling, “We’re at this stage and you’re going to make sleep alone?”
I patted Suyang’s face, “I forgive you for the Yao Youfan issue, but to prevent you from doing this again, I have to give you a light punishnt. Be good. Goodnight!” Then, I strutted out of the bedroom and laid on the couch.
As expected, in less than three seconds, Suyang ca over and whined, “Are you really going to treat like this? Didn’t you say you love ?”
“You’re a man. You can’t even handle such a small test? This is good training for you... go go go! Return to your room or I’ll look down on you!” I turned over and faced the couch.
“It’s because I’m a man! That’s why I can’t handle this type of test! Can’t you just pity .....” Suyang kept trying to turn my face around. He kept rubbing his face against mines and made my hair poke against my skin.
I kicked him off the couch and saw his depressed back view. I felt much better.
I casually lifted my leg on the couch as I stared at Suyang’s bedroom. I could imagine how much he was suffering. In less than five minutes, Suyang ca out again and went to the bathroom.
I could hear him taking a shower. I chuckled underneath the blanket.
Soon, the sound of water stopped and I could hear the door opening. Suddenly, I felt the couch sinking a bit around my feet. I assud Suyang had finished showering and sat down.
The sound of television began to blast in the darkness. I lowered the blanket a bit and took a peek. The mont I saw the scene before , I ducked back into my blanket.
What the heck?! What type of person watches TV naked?
Before I could process more, Suyang began tugging the blanket from my feet.
