Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce

Chapter 818 - 817: Help Me One Last Time (2)

Ling Yunshu smiled charmingly, leaning forward, and kissed Xiao Chen’s lips once more, her voice even softer, "Yes, everything I said is true."

Every word from Ling Yunshu seemed to carry immense force, pounding fiercely on his heart, which couldn’t stop beating wildly.

He understood in his heart that if he continued to help Ling Yunshu, he would only fall deeper into error, but... but the conditions she offered were so tempting, all things he had dreamed of.

He had been by Ling Yunshu’s side for so many years, wasn’t it all for this? Now, as long as he helped her one last time, she would be willing to let go of her obsessions, her hatred, and go back to the United States with him.

How could he not waver...

The light in Xiao Chen’s eyes grew gradually chaotic, calmed little by little, as if two beams of light were competing and struggling within, but in the end, they were still slowly swallowed by that sweet temptation.

Unconsciously, his hand clenched, his eyes closed slightly, then looked at Ling Yunshu again, "Yun Shu, how exactly do you want me to help you?"

Ling Yunshu laughed softly, wrapping her arms around Xiao Chen’s neck again, her body leaning toward his ear, her red lips parted slightly, whispering some words.

But as the words left her lips, Xiao Chen’s already somewhat intoxicated eyes suddenly froze. He pulled Ling Yunshu’s hands away, staring at her blankly, nearly in disbelief, "Yun Shu, how... how can you do this?"

A quick flash of severity passed through Ling Yunshu’s eyes, her eyes narrowed deeply, "Xiao Chen, they’ve hurt me so deeply, only when they’re unhappy can I be happy, do you understand?"

"But... but doing this would completely ruin Chuxia, no matter what, she’s still your own..."

Before Xiao Chen could finish, Ling Yunshu had already interrupted him decisively, "I have nothing to do with Ling Chuxia, don’t forget, she was the one who wanted to sever ties with me!"

"Yun Shu..."

"Xiao Chen, you keep saying you love me, so why are you always speaking up for Ling Chuxia, what do you really mean?"

Ling Yunshu abruptly got up from Xiao Chen’s arms, glaring at him fiercely, her face full of anger.

Everyone could help Ling Chuxia, how could Xiao Chen help her!

"I’m not helping her, I’m..." Xiao Chen rushed to explain, but Ling Yunshu simply refused to listen, her voice turning sharp and piercing, "Enough, Xiao Chen, give me a straight answer now, either you help me with this matter and then we go back to the States to get married, or we cut ties completely from this moment on! I can accomplish what I want on my own!"

"..."

Xiao Chen looked at the stubborn and crazy woman in front of him, he knew she meant what she said, she would definitely do it. If he didn’t help her, she would only push herself to the brink. And he, he simply couldn’t stand by and watch her go to her death.

The choice? She never gave him room to choose.

Xiao Chen sighed softly and reluctantly nodded in the end, "Okay, I will help you."

With those words, the anger on Ling Yunshu’s face faded instantly, the corners of her lips lifted, and she nestled back into Xiao Chen’s arms, "Xiao Chen, you’re so good."

Such a delicate and enchanting voice, but to Xiao Chen’s ears, there was not a trace of joy, only endless gloom, but... in the end, he still couldn’t let go of that tiny bit of hope.
