C374 Because of You

After sending Pei Luoluo home, Xiao Yichen took a call. He said that the acquisition plan had already been drafted. If there were no accidents... He could fly to Washington tomorrow to sign the contract. This also meant that all the companies that worked with Catherine had been swallowed up by Xiao Yichen.

This was also the reason why Xiao Yichen had been busy all this time. It was also the crux of why he came late every time to plan all the projects.

It was just that Xiao Yichen never explained to Pei Luoluo, and Pei Luoluo never asked about it. But that kind of tacit understanding, in the end when Xiao Yichen told her everything, Pei Luoluo smiled lightly and brought it over.

She said, "Xiao Yichen, do you feel that it's hard to plan all these in your head every day?"

Xiao Yichen said, "Compared to you who have been lost once, it is more difficult for me to figure it out. I have to put in a lot of effort."

In the afternoon, Xiao Yichen was busy in the study. Pei Luoluo received a call from Zhao Haoxun. How long had it been before he contacted her? He didn't even come to Little Eight's full moon wine.

"Luo Luo, can we meet? I have something to tell you." This was the only thing Zhao Haoxun revealed on the phone. Pei Luoluo wanted to ask: But Zhao Haoxun did not have any intention of saying it on the phone, so Pei Luoluo directly changed her clothes and went out.

After more than an hour, Pei Luoluo sat in the room at the corner of the waiting room. The person who came was not Zhao Haoxun, but Xiao Yimo.

It was still the elegant casual suit, the blue eyes under the silver mask, and the slightly hoarse voice. However, this time, there was less coldness and more familiarity in the eyes they looked at each other.

"Zhao Haoxun?" Pei Luoluo almost blurted out. The doubt that she wanted to admit but was afraid to admit finally came out.

She saw that as soon as she said it, the mysterious man standing in front of her in the next second... He took off his mask in front of her and when his entire face appeared in front of Pei Luoluo... Although she was mentally prepared, it was really the time to face the truth. She was still stunned.

The expression on her face was that of disbelief, and her heart was instantly overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

"Luo Luo..." Zhao Haoxun's voice was very soft, and his voice had already returned to the expression of someone who had done something wrong, but in his heart, he was not confident, but he was begging for forgiveness.

"Your voice..." Pei Luoluo slightly opened her mouth and asked.

"On the night Xiao Yichen returned to the country, I was the one who gave the clues to Lyi Zihan. It was also me who exposed your relationship. The reason I got close to you in the beginning was because I accepted Han Xuanlin, the woman I thought I was in love with. In the end, it was me who used these four years to exchange for such an embarrassing result." Zhao Haoxun took off his mask and his pale blue eyes were covered with a thin layer of haze.

His words seemed to be narrating something. It was clearly so light and cool, but Pei Luoluo could hear the self-mockery and ridicule in it.

"Zhao Haoxun, you must be in such a situation at this moment. Are you telling me this?" Pei Luoluo clenched her fists. She did not feel any pain when her nails dug into her flesh. However, her heart felt as if it had been struck by a heavy object. The unguarded pain pierced through her heart.

That was the feeling of many years of betrayal and deception. It was as if she had eaten a mouthful of sand. The pain and astringent pain in her throat still had to be forcefully swallowed.

Actually, she had known about Zhao Haoxun's identity a long time ago. She had always felt that this was fate. Although Zhao Haoxun had cheated first, she had given him too much trust. When he finally told the truth, Pei Luoluo realized that... Actually, she had been able to face it from the beginning.

"Luo Luo, I have only lied to you in my life. In the end, I became the one who loved you. What a ironic joke! I used to think that I was the leader, no matter what the reason was, as long as the final result. However, after putting in so much effort, I still lost you in the end. " Zhao Haoxun buried his face deep into the palms of his ten fingers, and between his lips and teeth, he said with difficulty," No, I never got you. "

"I thought I could leave freely. When you and Xiao Yichen got married for the first time, I left like I was running for my life. I was afraid that when I exposed Xiao Yichen's plan, I would also be thrown into an eternal hell. When I found out that you weren't living a good life, I flew back without hesitation and continued to stay by your side. My heart ached as I watched you leave him, riddled with holes. I didn't feel lucky at all that he would give me a chance if you left him, but from beginning to end... You have become the last victim in our fight. And I, the one who hated you the most, also played the role of the one who hurt you."

Zhao Haoxun said to himself. His palm was wet with tears as it slid down his hand. Pei Luoluo just watched him being tortured in pain, but not a single tear flowed out.

She remembered who said that when a person was so sad that he could not even cry, then her heart was really broken.

From Xiao Yichen to Zhao Haoxun, there was a man that she deeply loved and did not abandon. The other was a friend she thought she could rely on, a friend she could rely on, and a friend she could rely on even more than friendship. They both treated her as a bargaining chip for their own personal gain. For the interests that they thought were important!

"Why are you telling me this now?" Pei Luoluo found that when she spoke, her voice was hoarse and her throat was in pain. It was so painful that she frowned.

"Because of you. I don't want to lie to you anymore. When I give my heart to you... These sins were doubled and forced on me. Today, I asked you to come for this one purpose, to let you know all the truth... I didn't expect you to forgive me, but the other options are in your hands" When he put down his hand, Zhao Haoxun's face was already wet with tears. This was the first time he was in such a sorry state. This was the first time he showed everything he could to someone else without any reservation.

And that person was the woman who took root in his heart the most.

Pei Luoluo did not react to Zhao Haoxun's departure. She did not even make a sound. She thought that she could not care less that Xiao Yichen used her. She could also bear the pain of losing her son. However, when Zhao Haoxun told her everything, it was a perfect plan after all of this was connected. She was willing to be sold and even counted the money for him. How stupid was it to think for him?

It was still unforgivable. In the end, it was still unforgivable! He couldn't pretend that he hadn't started a new life with Xiao Yichen. She couldn't even imagine it. She had to keep thinking about whether she would have the courage to continue walking with these knot in her heart.

She did not know how long she sat there until the phone rang for the fourth time. Pei Luoluo finally recovered her senses and stared at the name on the screen. No matter how hard she tried, she could not press the button.

Perhaps after a long time, the door of the private room was opened. It should have been unceremoniously pushed open and Pei Luoluo fell into a warm and firm embrace. It was even a little too much strength and she was unable to catch her breath for a moment.
