Chapter 399: Previous Life (Mid) - To Love Deeply Is Madness
Many people face such a choice—if the person you love does not love you, do you set her free or keep her imprisoned by your side?
But the choice Shen Chi faced was far more than just that. When he realized that Liu Yuzhi’s attention had fallen on Lin Xiaoguai, between continuing to imprison her at the risk of her life and divorcing her to shift Liu Yuzhi’s attention from her, he struggled and hesitated for a long time and still chose the latter.
He had thought about simply giving up on everything and ending his life with Wanwan, but for one, he was too proud to flee and was not willing to accept such a defeated end. And secondly... he had already coerced Wanwan once, how could he be willing to force her again?
He planned to take care of Liu Yuzhi first, then find a way to win Wanwan back.
Meanwhile, Wanwan’s emotions were stretched to the limit; he needed to give her a quiet, free interval to relax.
However, many things in this world do not go as you wish.
With the death of Han Kuang, and Han Shouxin being crippled in his legs after the loss of his wife, his future was utterly ruined, Liu Yuzhi’s actions became increasingly unrestrained. Han Shouyi was incompetent, only knowing how to do experiments in the research institute; to say that he seized the power of the Han Family would be inaccurate, it was more like it was controlled by Liu Yuzhi and her daughter-in-law Dong Fei.
What made Shen Chi wary of Liu Yuzhi was the power she held; a forceful grip can overpower clever schemes, and no matter how clever he was, he couldn’t confront her directly. However, she also had a weakness; her emotions were on a hair trigger, as long as he could control that, he could predict her actions. Truly speaking, she was just an ordinary woman, wishing her son well, hostile and oppressive to those who could damage her own interests, yet her actions lacked specific purpose.
