Chapter 328 – Even Tarnished, She Was Still A Better Option.
Li Xue did not lie when she said that she could not forget the things that happened in the past. Say it her weakness or her stubbornness but she was all sure that never in her life she would be able to forget those days where she almost lost all the meaning of her existence. Lost her everything!
How could she forget that night when for the first time she had let her guards down, considering that she was among the people she could trust … the people on whom she could rely on. But never knew that she would end up doing the worst mistake of her life?
That day she came to understand that all her life the people she thought she could rely on have never been any reliable to her. That they would only be the ones to leave her the very moment she would fall from the sky.
Li Xue wanted to mock herself for her stupidity. How could she live half of her life in a lie? A lie that ruined her the worst.
That night she did went to a stranger's room but it was Sying who had taken her. She did deny the offer saying that she could return home for better but was desperately urged to take rest and join the party later.
She still remembers that in the past, someone has asked her to believe him, but she still has not forgotten that when the time came and she needed him the most, he just rejected her saying that she no longer deserved his trust and belief.
She knew that her situation was all complicated at that time. She was found naked under the blanket with a strange old man, but she has said that she was innocent. Yet no one cared to pay any heed to her words and assurances. No one cared to believe her truth. No one cared to believe her treasured dignity.
She has never expected any stranger's trust in her, never cared what people thought about her but she cared to hear the thoughts of the people she cherished all her life. But never thought that once she would hear them, she would no longer be able to cherish herself anymore.
Even hatred would become the last thing she would be able to feel for herself. That the only thing she had hated all her life would become the best definition of her existence. And she would become the most 'pitiful' creature of this world.
"Li Xue can never do something like this. I trust her". Back then Wen Sying has started her words like this, making Li Xue's heart swell with pride thinking all this while she has got a friend who truly believed her. But then more of her words got added on which almost made Li Xue doubt if all this while their friendship was just an illusion of her wishful thinking. "But there might be some complications everyone can have in her life and career. You just cannot judge her because she tried solving her problems on her own."
At that time, she said that all her words were just an attempt to make people's aggressive nerves calm but Li Xue knew well what purpose she held deep down in her heart.
Wen Sying claimed in front of everyone that at night she has seen her willingly getting in the room after the man. But Li Xue remembered all well that it was Wen Sying, who took her to that room to rest after she felt drowsy drinking a drink, assuring that it was safe there.
Was this what it's called to stake one's own dignity to help others? If this was the type of help they were offering or were capable of offering, then she would even warn her enemies to not prefer to take their help.
Li Xue jeered at the thought internally and was about to say something when suddenly she heard the man say, "Li Xue, I know at that time what Sying said in front of the media ruined everything for you. But you also knew it well, at that time, she was all to the industry and had no idea what her words could bring the consequences on you. She was just trying to help you before and is still doing the same. Can't you see her efforts?"
Li Xue could no longer comprehend his thoughts and ideas. "Efforts? Oh yes! I am not blind to see her efforts all this while, CEO Zheng. I can see how well she has learnt to plot in the industry. Using tricks on the media has become her best field of her excel. I got its best example early in the morning". She said as she shook her head, deepening the mocking laughter on her lips.
Zheng Wenting was all confused at her words. "What do you mean Li Xue? Did something happen early in the morning?" he asked, wrinkling his brows in confusion. Suddenly he remembered the money transactions made from his credit card earlier.
"I think you can get a better answer at home from your girlfriend. So don't kill the joy by asking me about it", She said, without giving any hint in between her words. She believed that curiosity can kill a person better than any weapon.
And her thoughts were not wrong as it immediately brought a wave of desperation in the tone of Zheng Wenting as he said, "I don't know Li Xue what has happened early in the morning but I know one thing that Sying really cares for you a lot. If not then she would have never gone to a nightclub, just for the sake of you, risking her prized dignity and innocence. She did so much just to help you make an easy comeback in the industry".
"…" Li Xue did not say anything. She just remained the way she was as if she was still giving time to the man to let him complete his whole story.
"That's why keeping both you and Sying's well-being in mind, I decided to help you. All preparations and plans have already been made for your comeback. I, myself, have planned the things for you. You just have to follow those arrangements. That was the thing I wanted to discuss with you today. Sying …"
When things got really unbearable to hold in Li Xue could not control her chuckle any longer. Her face turned red but it was tough to say whether that deep cherry blush was because of the exaggerated laughter or the fury in her eyes.
Zhen Wenting words got halted in the middle as he stared at the woman in confusion.
"CEO Zheng, do you really think that your precious Sying has to do something like that for me. Even tarnished, I am still a better option than her that men would always prefer to warm their bed. Don't you, yourself think so?" She said, leaving the man all stunned.
Before he could ask anything from her, another shock wave rang in his ears, making him flinch away from his car and taking a surprise fall on the ground.
Screechhhh!!!
Li Xue's eyes too held a surprise when looking at the scene but that surprise was not because of the damage that happened to the Audi rather was because of the familiar black Maybach car that suddenly showed up at the scene.
