Chapter 425 What Exactly Was Hidden
Qin Yao chuckled softly, his expression gradually becoming sinister, "I lied to you..." I lied to you, lied to you, lied to you...
Those four words wrapped around her like a haunting specter...
"Why would you do this?" Xiaoqiao asked in a low voice, her heart so painful she wished she could sever it from her body.
"Why? Then who’s going to tell me why Gu Hangshen framed me in the first place! Made me lose you! Made me want to die in agony!!! Why can’t I do the same?
I’m just giving them a taste of their own medicine! I’m not wrong! From the beginning to the end, it was all forced upon me by him!" Qin Yao’s demeanor twisted with frenzy, far from his usual scholarly appearance.
Qin Yao rambled on, "I orchestrated everything, I threatened him to divorce you, otherwise I’d reveal your identity to Huo Yandong, and once Huo Yandong acknowledged you, there would be no possibility for you and Gu Hangshen!
It was I who threatened him to leave you, to drive you away, otherwise I’d tell you that your mother was killed by Huo Yandong."
Qin Yao looked palely at the woman he could see but not reach, sick and tired of all the scheming and deceiving. Finally confessing these things aloud, he felt as if his whole being had been liberated...
"Actually, I didn’t even need to beat around the bush and threaten him, because just by telling you this, you would definitely come back to me, since I’ve been lurking beside Huo Yandong for so many years, entirely capable of avenging you! Gu Hangshen knew this too!
Xiaoqiao... do you know? We both know you too well. If you hate someone, no matter how many years pass, you’ll stop at nothing to drag them into hell! Just like you did to me!"
Qin Yao stared at her, each word deliberate, "Do you know why I didn’t do that? Because I wanted Gu Hangshen to taste what it’s like to be hated by you, to be hated as the murderer of your mother!!!"
