Her body began to tremble unconsciously. In her mind, she shouted: Lin Weiwan, isn’t this enough? How much more of your self-esteem do you want this man to destroy? Won’t you run away?
Tears were rolling in her eyes, but her feet were rooted to the ground like stakes.
No! Can’t leave. If she left, where would she find money to pay his high medical expenses? Lin Weiwan, wake up! She could barely scrape together money for her brother’s kidney treatment, so what could she use to pay compensation? Beg him! Beg him quickly!
She said, “I… the reason I have no money is because my family needs long-term dialysis, and our family savings have long been depleted. I really have no spare money to compensate you, so I’m not intentionally trying to dodge the debt…” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but feel aggrieved, and tears fell like a broken pearl necklace, though she kept her head lowered, preventing anyone from seeing her facial expression.
A moment of silence filled the entire space, and Yan Xukang was already moved. It turned out she had such a heartbreaking helplessness.
“Perhaps what you’re saying is true, but I can’t believe you based on your one-sided statement. I sympathize with your situation, but there are too many scammers in today’s society. I cannot easily trust your words. Please leave.”
Looking at Ye Lixie’s indifferent expression, one might almost think he was a heartless, cold-blooded animal. However, with their years of tacit understanding, Yan Xukang saw that his cold demeanor was softening, and he knew the young man had a soft heart.
“President…” Yan Xukang tried to interject, but was pushed back by the stern, merciless coldness in Ye Lixie’s eyes.
“I’m telling the truth. Otherwise, why do you think I’m standing here enduring your humiliation? Having no money isn’t some terrible crime. You clearly don’t lack these funds, so why must you push me like this?” Lin Weiwan finally couldn’t help but cry.
“I’m bullying you? Miss, it seems you’ve misspoken. The person lying in the hospital bed is me, not you. So who’s bullying whom?” Ye Lixie laughed sarcastically.
“I…” She bit her lip and couldn’t continue.
