Chapter 2682: Chapter 823: The Past
Xia Ye spoke these words through gritted teeth.
Lin Zhi had never seen Xia Ye like this.
His eyes were bloodshot, like an enraged lion.
He gripped her arm as if he wanted to crush her bones.
In fact, Xia Ye had never voluntarily made intimate contact with her.
Now, she could feel the heat in his palm.
Like a branding iron.
An unusual feeling rose in her heart.
But when Lin Zhi looked up into Xia Ye’s eyes, she felt that this man seemed to want to kill her.
Perhaps these old photographs had provoked him.
Lin Zhi had anticipated Xia Ye would react this way.
But she hadn’t expected his reaction to be so intense.
Indeed, Xia Ye cared deeply about Lu Yinxing, she knew that.
Seeing these photos and losing control was only human.
Lin Zhi tried to adjust her emotions and said, "I don’t want to do anything; I just want you to change your mind."
"Impossible."
Xia Ye said, "If you dare to make these photos public, I will kill you."
From this boy — no, now he should be called a man.
Hearing these words from such a cold man’s mouth, Lin Zhi still felt terrified.
Lin Zhi joked with a smile, "Murder requires a life in return."
Xia Ye’s voice was icy, each word carrying a knife: "Then a life in return it will be, you can try."
Lin Zhi could tell that Xia Ye wasn’t joking at all.
But Lin Zhi had been involved with gangs over the years, and she had seen bloodshed a few times, so she wouldn’t be easily scared off by mere words.
Lin Zhi said, "I know you’re not afraid of anything, and I know you’d do anything to protect her, but a mutual destruction isn’t a result either of us wants to see."
Xia Ye still tightly gripped Lin Zhi’s hand.
Lin Zhi could almost hear the cracking sound of her own bones.
If he didn’t let go soon, her bones might really break.
Lin Zhi said, "Xia Ye, let me go first, and we can still discuss."
Xia Ye forcefully released Lin Zhi’s arm.
At this moment, Lin Zhi’s slender arm was already bruised.
Lin Zhi rubbed her arm and said, "I don’t want this scandal from years ago to resurface, but you must know, because of you two back then, I ended up terribly. If it weren’t for you, I should have graduated from a prestigious school with a bright future instead of..."
Saying this, Lin Zhi didn’t want to continue.
What she had been through over the years, she didn’t want to talk about.
If Xia Ye knew, he’d surely despise her even more.
Lin Zhi still wanted to maintain some goodness in Xia Ye’s eyes.
Even though it was merely her own idea of goodness.
Xia Ye said, "Tell me, what exactly do you want?"
"My wish is simple. If you don’t want to be my lover, fine, but I want you to break up with Lu Yinxing. Sorry, but that’s just me. I can’t stand seeing you two happy. I’ve come back this time to break you up, and I want you to give up willingly, otherwise..."
Lin Zhi’s gaze fell on those old photographs: "I think not only Lu Yinxing herself but even your parents won’t be able to withstand such a blow, right?"
Xia Ye only felt like a knife had been stabbed into his heart.
This matter might be the pain of his lifetime.
