Quickly lowering his hand, Lu Zhanxiu laughed coldly. Barely concealed contempt rang in his clear voice as he remarked, “What an insatiably greedy woman.”

“Thank you for the compliment.” Shameless, promiscuous… In the past six years, Yan Susu had been labelled with an assortment of derogatory terms, so she did not care if ‘insatiably greedy’ was added to the list.

Lu Zhanxiu had seen his fill of scheming women like her and was not surprised. He made a call and asked the secretary to send the contract over; once it arrived, he signed the contract without a word and left.

The contract was just a few sheets of paper but, in Yan Susu’s hands, it felt like it weighed a ton.

Raising her head to the dark sky, she could not help laughing in desperation. She had gotten to a point where she could barely recognize herself…

Back at her rented apartment, she had barely set foot inside when she heard a woman’s screams.

No prizes for guessing–there was yet another indecent act happening inside.

Pursing her lips, she pushed the door open and entered.

“You’re back.” Ling Xiusi was lounging on the sofa, cigarette in hand.

Keeping her eyes lowered, Yan Susu merely responded with a soft, “Yep.”

“Where did you go today?”

“The hospital.”

“Who gave you permission to go there?”

“I’m sorry. I fainted suddenly and was sent to the hospital by a kind stranger.”

Surprised, Ling Xiusi’s eyes reflected a flash of confused emotion, which was almost instantly replaced by a rebuke. “I told you that I wanted to close that deal with Mr. Li, but you disappeared at the last minute. How are you going to make up for that?’

“I’m sorry…” Suddenly, Yan Susu did not want to hand over the contract that she had been clutching tightly.

Her apology made Ling Xiusi burst out in anger, “Just how much is your apology worth?”

Since the day she had woken up in the hospital six years ago, she had been apologizing continuously, and he was utterly sick of the words “I’m sorry.”

“I’m sorry…” Even knowing very well that her apology was worth nothing, there was nothing else she could do except apologize.

Ling Xiusi pushed away the woman straddling his body, walked over to Yan Susu, and grabbed her by the throat. “I dare you to say you’re sorry one more time!”

Yan Susu shut her eyes and remained silent.

The pained look of hopeless resignation on Yan Susu’s face only angered Ling Xiusi more. He said, “Mr. Li will be at the Imperial Hotel tonight. Go spend the night with him.”

Yan Susu’s head snapped upwards as she looked at him with disbelief. “What?”

In the past six years, although Ling Xiusi had often taken her to his business events, watching emotionlessly from the side as she was groped by other men, he had never explicitly asked her to…

This man. Was this the same man that she had once known?

“Did you not hear what I said? This is the access card to the room.”

Yan Susu burst out laughing. “Ling Xiusi, one day, you will use up even the last shred of love that I have for you.”

Stunned for a split second, Ling Xiusi sneered, “Your love is too dirty. I don’t want it.”

Ha, so her love was dirty? Rightly so… In her present state, how could her feelings be pure?

“Ling Xiusi, I will help you close this business deal, but you must then set me free. We will no longer owe each other anything….”

Ling Xiusi interrupted her quickly. “No longer owe each other? Yan Susu, what you owe me can never be repaid, not in this lifetime!”

“Are you determined to torture me to death before you can be happy? If that’s what you want, you can take my life right now.”

It had been six years. She had had enough!

“What would I want with this trashy life of yours?” Ling Xiusi laughed mockingly, adding, “Is this all you’re able to withstand? Who was it who said that she loved me more than her own life?”

“I have already given it to you…”

Ling Xiusi’s heart tightened when he saw Yan Susu looking like she had nothing to live for. Feeling a sudden sense of dread, he shouted with rage in his eyes, “Weren’t you always going on about how your mother was still alive and that you were determined to find her? What about it then, are you giving up?”

He had not had his fill of torturing her, so why would he let Yan Susu die?

If he could never compete in Yan Susu’s heart with her mother, whose status was unknown, then she should stay alive for her mother’s sake and endure his torture!
