Chapter 290
"Hmph, Xu Qingyang, weren’t you the one who kept saying you’d send me off to Vietnam? What’s the matter now, having second thoughts? It turns out you’re no hero after all, not even as satisfying as that thing in your pants!"
"You!"
Ye Tian’s head was reeling; he couldn’t fathom how these two could be together—they didn’t even know each other, they had only met a few times, how could this... how is it possible! Normally, Liu Ling always cowered timidly in a corner of the room, cautious and jumpy like a cat, scared even by a sudden sparrow’s flight. How could such a frail woman poison someone! Xu Qingyang was still in that white suit of his, always the laid-back one, acting on whim, with no one having seen him truly rush for anything. But this staunch skeptic was showing desperation today, "Have you lost your mind? What have they done to you? When you stayed at his place, weren’t you unharmed? Moreover, Tang Su took good care of you, why couldn’t you just stay there quietly?" At this moment, Xu Qingyang was like a child, his expression filled with nothing but urgency, indicating that Liu Ling occupied a significant place in his heart.
Xu Qingyang, who had been proud for twenty years, was now defeated by a sixteen-year-old girl. Initially, wasn’t it Xu Qingyang himself advocating to have Liu Ling killed?
Liu Ling’s voice was hoarse, almost piercingly sharp, "Xu Qingyang, Ye Tian is a ruthless bastard. Today he poisoned his wife, tomorrow I’ll take his life. Sticking with such a beast, you’re nothing but a disgrace! A useless piece of trash! Their care for me, bullshit! Are they not just afraid of my revenge? A pack of wolves in sheep’s clothing, they’d rather see me dead early. You’re all the same, so damn hypocritical, beasts!"
Hearing this, Xu Qingyang panicked, losing his usual nonchalance, "You... give me the antidote quickly, they’re not fools, any more delays and they’re sure to find this place."
Liu Ling stood up, raising her eyebrow, "Scared? Aren’t you Xu Qingyang, the great name that commands respect in worldly society? Now you start to chicken out? Scared, then just leave, what are you still doing here? I’ve seen plenty of dead people, I’m not afraid of a big living one like you. If you knew you couldn’t protect me, why bother drawing me in?"
"I..." Xu Qingyang was rendered speechless.
