Chapter 796: Heartbroken Without a Trace
Chapter 796: Heartbroken Without a Trace
"Yes, you're right, I'm just a mistress." Lin Yuqing suddenly interrupted Fu Ni, raised her head, and smiled without restraint, tears still in the corners of her eyes. She was clearly smiling, but her expression was very sad, and her eyes were gray, as if she had given up hope on everything.
Breaking away from Bai Yiran's hand, Lin Yuqing walked towards Ada step by step, and for some reason, the latter followed Lin Yuqing's pace and retreated step by step.
"I was foolish, stupid, thinking that as long as I trusted others, I would be treated the same way. I shouldn't have come to Italy. I could have lived a lie my whole life, being manipulated like a fool. Oh, actually, this isn't bad. At least I won't be sad, and I won't have to see things I shouldn't see. As a person, you should put yourself in your place. It's futile to fight for something that doesn't belong to you."
"Yuqing, stop talking! Why are you torturing yourself like this?" Fu Ni stepped forward and grabbed Lin Yuqing, unable to bear her humiliating herself any longer. But what made her even more angry was what Xiao Mingyang was doing behind her when Lin Yuqing was so upset? Why was he still holding on to that red-haired woman? Could it be that he really had fallen in love with someone else and no longer loved Yuqing? If that was the case, she would tell Dongfang to stop treating that bastard and let him die of illness!
Lin Yuqing stumbled, turned around and looked at Fu Ni, feeling that everything in front of her had become hazy. The corners of her mouth curled up weakly, and her body shook, appearing to be shaky.
"Did I say anything wrong? Now it seems that all the persistence is so ridiculous. The so-called vows are poison disguised as lies, bit by bit eating away at people's confidence. They give a little hope, but in return, they get deeper despair. Fu Ni, I'm tired. I want to go home."
Every word Lin Yuqing said was like a thousand needles piercing Xiao Mingyang's heart. He wanted to hold this woman tightly at all costs. No matter what his family business was, it was not as important as making the woman in front of him happy.
But just as he took a step, Lilith gripped his large hand and whispered in his ear, "Don't forget why you're here today. If you can't close this deal with the Nan family, all your efforts over the past month will have been in vain. Just endure a moment of heartache and you can solve a big problem. This deal is a good deal! You and Lin Yuqing have a long life ahead of you. Just give her some comfort afterward."
Although Xiao Mingyang didn't like Lilith, her words still moved him. He had had enough of the feeling of being blackmailed, and he would no longer obey his grandfather's orders. To do this, he had to seize the power from his grandfather, and making some sacrifices was inevitable.
Originally, Xiao Mingyang thought that he would be the one to make the sacrifice, but he didn't expect that Lin Yuqing would be involved. Seeing her heartbroken look, his heart was broken, but the pain he was enduring at this moment was no less than Lin Yuqing's.
Lin Yuqing could express her sadness through tears and words, but what about him? All the pain had to be buried deep in his heart, not a single word could be revealed.
With his fists clenched tightly, Xiao Mingyang retracted his legs as he was about to take a step forward. He used all his strength to control himself and not pull Lin Yuqing into his arms.
Yuqing, I'm sorry. For our future happiness, I have to put you in this difficult position now.
His eyes darkened as Xiao Mingyang looked at Bai Yiran and ordered, "What are you waiting for? Take her back first!"
Bai Yiran didn't expect Xiao Mingyang to say this, and there was deep disappointment in his eyes.
"Xiao Mingyang, what is the most important thing in your heart?"
"Why are you still wasting time talking to him!" Fu Ni supported Lin Yuqing, turned around and looked at Bai Yiran, and said angrily, "Let's get out of this damn place!"
Looking at Lin Yuqing silently, Bai Yiran sighed, unable to understand how things had turned out like this.
The three of them walked slowly toward the door. The people around them pointed at Lin Yuqing, their eyes either mocking or looking down on her. Although Fu Ni stood in front of Lin Yuqing, she could still sense the malicious gazes.
Ada gestured to the people around her, and someone walked up to Lin Yuqing, raised a glass of wine and splashed it on her face, saying disdainfully, "Next time you look for a man, you should also choose the place, you disgusting woman!"
Fu Ni pushed the woman away, took out a handkerchief and wiped the mess off Lin Yuqing's body, while rushing up to argue with her.
Reaching out to grab Fu Ni's hand, Lin Yuqing didn't even raise her head. The wine soaked her hair and stuck to her pale cheeks. She said, "Forget it, let's go."
When the wine splashed on Lin Yuqing, Xiao Mingyang wanted to kill her. Seeing the petite figure getting farther and farther away from him, Xiao Mingyang didn't want to endure it any longer, so he shook off Lilith's hand and rushed forward.
"Ming Yang!"
Turning around and looking at Lilith viciously, Xiao Mingyang said coldly: "Compared to business, I will not let my woman be insulted! Lilith, go to your stupid business!"
"you……"
"Sorry, am I late?"
A clear, deep voice rang out, drawing the attention of the entire audience. The men, upon seeing him, felt a conflicting mix of fear and admiration, while the women, filled with admiration and yearning, were eager to pounce upon him.
Against the backlight, Lin Yuqing spotted a tall man walking toward her. His features were deep, his expression stern, and his posture erect, perfect as a sculpture. A smile played on his lips, but it didn't reach his eyes. His eyes, strikingly bright, were incredibly familiar to Lin Yuqing.
Nan Lingtian seemed to be very unwelcome to this person's appearance, and said warily: "I thought you wouldn't come today."
Glancing at Nan Lingtian, the man said, "It's just a wedding. I really don't plan to come. At worst, I can just attend the wedding next time when it's sunny."
"Kai, watch your words!" Nan Lingtian had a tense face and a frown on his face.
Zhang Kaifeng, one hand in his suit pocket, flashed a charming smile that made everyone present lose their minds. However, to Nan Lingtian, this smile was pure provocation and ridicule.
Nan Lingtian clenched his fingers until they turned white as he warned, "If you can bless Qingtian, I think she'll be very happy. But if you just want to disrupt the wedding, I advise you to stop. I will never allow you to do that!"
Although Nan Lingtian's aura could not be ignored, Zhang Kaifeng ignored it and only focused on the woman in front of him. There was endless tenderness in his eyes. He said, "I think you are overthinking it. I am here only to take my woman away."
Zhang Kaifeng's woman!?
There were gasps all around, and everyone looked at Lin Yuqing with different expressions.
