Chapter 605 - 624 Recognition
But for her to stand before everyone and agree to let Su Yiyi be with Li Yifei was also very difficult for her to utter, and once she agreed, what would become of Chu Xiaoyao? Besides, there was He Fangqing. She had agreed to others, but He Fangqing was her close friend, and if she continued to pretend to be ignorant, wouldn’t that be unfair to He Fangqing? And there was Michelle—if Michelle saw how easygoing she was and then secretly had a relationship with Li Yifei, and later challenged her for her position, wouldn’t she have to agree as well? Then she truly would be putting together a grand harem for Li Yifei.
"I’m... I’m sorry!" Su Yiyi suddenly spoke up, and even looked up at Xu Yingying, saying, "Sister Yingying, I am really happy to see you this time. You are so suited for Brother Li. Only someone like you is fit to be Brother Li’s wife. I will not... affect you and Brother Li anymore. Please don’t be mad at Brother Li. It’s all my fault, I knew Brother Li was already married and yet I continued to see him. I was the one clinging to him. Sister Yingying, you must not blame Brother Li."
Other than stuttering on the words "I’m sorry," Su Yiyi’s speech was fluent, and even carried a smile on her face.
However, upon hearing Su Yiyi’s words, everyone felt a deep sting in their hearts. They could all sense Su Yiyi’s intention to protect Li Yifei—to avoid making things difficult for him, she had uttered such heartbreaking words.
Xu Yingying’s lips quivered, then she looked towards Li Yifei, and Li Yifei was also looking at her. His gaze seemed indifferent, but it made Xu Yingying’s heart palpitate. Li Yifei showed no intention of pressing her, but she knew clearly that if she did not agree now, even if Li Yifei did not leave her, their relationship was likely to come to an end.
Xu Yingying moved, slowly walking towards Su Yiyi, and everyone’s heart lifted to their throats. Nobody knew what Xu Yingying was going to do, and at this moment, no one spoke or stopped her, not even Chu Xiaoyao, who was also anxiously rooted to her spot.
With each step Xu Yingying took, it was as if striking everyone’s hearts, and when she stopped in front of Su Yiyi, everyone’s hearts were in their throats.
"Yiyi!" Xu Yingying’s voice was dry, then she gently took Su Yiyi’s cold hand and softly said, "If... you’re afraid of being wronged... I don’t mind... you being with Yifei."
