C14 It's Just the Beginning

"I don't know why you're like this, but I don't expect you to forgive me. I'm sorry. " You want me to pay my debt. I can promise you anything else. But I won't agree to your humiliating request. "She paused, her voice hoarse. She seemed to be on the verge of collapse. "Nie Liyan," she said. Do you think it's fun to humiliate me like this? "I've spent the past five years feeling guilty, but now... "I suddenly feel that it's nothing."

The door slammed shut, isolating all sounds from the outside.

The man stood straight behind the door. His sharp, cold eyes kept staring at the door. In the next second, a chill as cold as death flashed across the depths of his slightly narrowed eyes. The curve of his thin lips carried a domineering air of determination.

Ling Zisu, do you think it will end just like that?

Your nightmare has only just begun!

When Zisu returned home, it was already early in the morning.

She walked from the unfamiliar mountaintop villa to her house on foot and swallowed the bottle of medicine with her own saliva halfway through. This time, she didn't shed a single tear because she knew what it felt like to be dead.

When she returned home, she discovered that her parents were not asleep. Mr. Ling was smoking with his head lowered. There were many cigarette butts in the ashtray in front of him. When he saw Zisu push open the door and enter, he hurriedly got up. "Zisu, why didn't you call me so late at night? I'll go and pick you up."

Zisu swept a glance at the living room and found that the kitchen light was also on. Her mother was probably in the kitchen.

She was actually exhausted, but she had to force herself to answer her father, "Dad, I'm fine. I just want to be alone. You don't have to worry about me. I want to rest first. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."

Mrs. Ling heard the conversation in the living room coming out of the kitchen. When she saw Zisu, she stumbled over, "Baby, you're finally back. We're worried about you. You don't look very good. I made some food. "Eat a bit before you go to sleep."

Zisu did not have an appetite. Her stomach was so hard that it was as if it was filled with stones. She felt dizzy. She did not know how she insisted on walking home for more than two hours. But now, she was struggling to speak. "Mom and Dad," she said. I have no appetite. I want to go to bed. You guys really don't have to worry about me. "You've waited all night for me. Go and rest early."

The two of them saw their daughter's haggard face and knew that she had endured too much in the past two days. They didn't say anything else.

Zisu dragged her exhausted body up the stairs and entered the room. She saw her soft bed, which was covered with bright red bedding. The rose pattern symbolized eternal love. It was so sweet. But at this moment, it was especially ironic.

She almost cried, but she held it in. She didn't want to shed another tear. She pursed her lips and strode over. She reached out and threw the large red bedding on the bed onto the floor. She lay down. Perhaps she was really too tired. She only stared at the ceiling for a moment before closing her eyes.

In fact, she didn't sleep well. In her dreams, there were always scenes that flashed past, sometimes blurry, sometimes clear. She wanted to grasp something. But when she woke up, the only thing that was clear in her mind was the man's wanton humiliation of her not long ago.

She took a deep breath and realized that she seemed to have caught a cold. No wonder she felt dizzy last night. She washed her face and changed her clothes. When she went downstairs, the rest of the Ling family were already sitting at the dining table eating breakfast.

"Zisu?" Ling Ziqing had just finished eating and was about to go to work. When she saw Zisu go downstairs, she stopped, "You woke up so early. Don't you need to rest for a while? Your complexion is not very good."

Zisu shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine. I want to go to the company to work today. I canceled my leave of absence."

When Mrs. Ling heard that, she immediately frowned, "Zisu, I see that your complexion is not too good. You should rest for a few more days. Also, this matter with the Chen family has not been resolved."

"Mom, I will talk to Chen Xueli." The cold made her temples hurt, and her throat was dry. There was a sickly haggard look on her face. "I'll explain to the Chen family as well. I don't have any appetite, and I don't want to eat breakfast anymore. I'll go to the company first. "

Mr. Ling was about to say something when Ling Zinian, who was wolfing down the last mouthful of milk, quickly got up. "Mom and Dad, I'm full too. Zisu, let's go out together. big sister, drive us to the company."

Ling Ziqing nodded and took her coat before leaving with her two younger sisters.

Zisu also knew that the two older sisters were definitely going to say something to her. Sure enough, after getting into the car, Ling Ziqing started the engine and asked, "How are you going to resolve this matter?"

The three sisters had been very close since they were young. Zisu naturally did not need to hide anything in front of the two of them. She said bluntly, "I already said that I will not marry Chen Xueli."
