Chapter 1269: Chapter 1269: A Single Glance is Enough

"If you only realized that all of this was a setup at that time, when did you and Elder Brother Chu decide to play this act?"

"We never discussed it with Uncle."

"You never discussed it, then how could..."

"This is something you will never understand. The relationship between Uncle and me is beyond what outsiders can comprehend. We’ve been through so much together that our feelings for each other are even firmer than solid rock. We trust each other enough to put our lives in each other’s hands. Even if there’s an abyss in front, if the other says jump, we’d do so without hesitation, because we have such unwavering faith in each other, certain that we would never harm ourselves.

That’s why, a lot of times we don’t need words – a glance or a gesture is enough to know what’s on each other’s mind."

Jian Dan’s words were hugely devastating, shattering Jiang Xue’er’s last line of defense. At this moment, Jiang Xue’er looked dazed, her gaze fixed on a spot, silent.

"Ha ha ha~ Ha ha ha~" Li Wanqing, who had been quiet until now, suddenly burst out laughing. "Ha ha ha~ To think today would end like this, ha ha ha~ ha ha ha..."

"Li Wanqing, I already let you off once before. I didn’t expect you to remain unrepentant!" Jian Dan coldly said as she looked at Li Wanqing.

"Let me off? Ha ha ha? Let me off? As long as you are with Mr. Strict, I would never be set free!

I joined Qin Corporation right after university and fell hopelessly in love with him at first sight. But I knew that he doesn’t like women, he would even feel sick or faint when approached by any. So even though I adored him, I didn’t dare get too close. Still, I loved him in my own way. I worked hard, hoping to be of the greatest help to him in our work. That alone made me happy. Eventually, I succeeded. My capabilities were finally noticed by him, and he started entrusting me with important matters. I put my heart and soul into each task, and our understanding of each other grew stronger.

However, your appearance destroyed everything. His gaze softened because of you, his tone warmed when speaking with you. Wherever you were, all his attention was focused on you, not sparing a fragment for anyone else.

Seeing how drastically he changed because of you, I couldn’t accept it. I couldn’t bear that the person who changed him was you, so I had to drive you away from his side, to take your place as the one who could change him.

Unfortunately, it turns out I trusted a fool, ruining everything.

I admit defeat, but not to you. I lost to Mr. Strict, to my love for him."

"Li Wanqing, do you think your words are moving? Let me tell you, they’re not!

All I feel is disgust after listening to you.

You’re truly sick, you know? An obsessive love like yours only harms others, and yourself as well."

"Ha ha ha~ Ha ha ha..." Suddenly, Li Wanqing’s mouth clamped shut, her jaw muscles tensed...

And fresh red blood slowly trickled from the corner of her mouth.

As Li Wanqing fell to the ground, her face still wore a twisted smile. "Jian Dan, do you think it’s all over? This is just the beginning." With that, her eyes lost their light.
