5: Chapter 5: It’s actually him… 5 -5: It’s actually him… It was him! Rong Shaoze’s pitch-black eyes, devoid of warmth, were staring at her coldly. His features were too sharp; when his face was set in a frown, he looked even more imposing without anger. Lin Xinlan was taken aback, her hands involuntarily clenching the thick carpet. She never expected that the person to bail her out would be him… Does this mean that the woman named Ruoxin is out of danger now? “Click—” The light was suddenly turned on, and the room became as bright as day, allowing her to clearly see his face. Lin Xinlan stared at him, silent. Nobody knew how complex her feelings towards him were. She hated him, but he was still Xiaocong’s father… Rong Shaoze uncrossed his legs. He leaned forward slightly and with a raise of his hand beckoned to her gently, “Come here.” His voice was soft, yet it was impossible to refuse. Lin Xinlan hesitated, then got up and walked over to him. The man grabbed her wrist and abruptly pulled downward. It was as if an invisible force was pressing down on her, causing her legs to naturally bend, and she ended up kneeling beside him. He grasped her chin firmly, lifting it up, a cold sneer on his lips, but his eyes remained icy without a hint of warmth. “Do you know how Ruoxin is doing now?” he asked softly, his eyes not missing any expression on her face. Lin Xinlan’s pupils constricted. She looked up at him in a humiliated posture and asked shakily, “How is she?” Rong Shaoze sneered again, but his smile was too dangerous, sending chills down one’s spine. “She’s been in a coma until now. The doctors said she might stay in a vegetative state for life. In other words, thanks to you, she’s become a vegetable.” Lin Xinlan’s eyes widened in shock, her face turning pale. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for her to end up like this…” Rong Shaoze’s face darkened instantly, his grip tightening, almost crushing her chin, “You didn’t know?! Of all the people to hit, why did you have to hit her?!” “I’m sorry…” “Don’t give me your apologies!” he snapped in a cold voice, a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes. “Do you know that we were about to get married? The invitations had been sent out, and the wedding was about to take place! Now that she’s a vegetable, how is she supposed to attend the wedding, how is she to marry me?!” Lin Xinlan bit her lip tightly and stopped talking. So the woman was his fiancée, and they were about to marry. She could see that this man had not recognized her. Of course, it had been five years; he would not remember her face. But she remembered him, and would never forget for a lifetime… For some reason, knowing that he could not get married and seeing him so angry, she felt an odd sense of vengeful satisfaction. She had been in pain for so many years, and now she had finally gotten back a little. Yet, she felt terribly sorry for that woman. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It was her fault, causing a perfectly fine woman to become a vegetative. Lin Xinlan was adept at hiding her inner thoughts, but in front of Rong Shaoze, her slight sentiments couldn’t be concealed at all. The man saw the schadenfreude in her eyes. He was first taken aback, then completely flew into a rage. “Damn it!” He flung her violently, making her fall to the ground. His hand followed, gripping her throat tightly, “You dare to gloat?! You damned woman, you’ve caused Ruoxin to never wake up again, I’ll make you pay a painful price, I’ll make you realize, crossing me will be the biggest regret of your life!” Lin Xinlan couldn’t breathe, she was pulling at his hand desperately, but he was too strong, and she couldn’t budge him at all. Unable to breathe, her head spinning, her throat aching.
