C769 He Was Still Looking Forward to Something

Yun Chen looked away and didn't answer her directly. Instead, he suddenly asked, "It's not impossible for me to agree to your request. But, shouldn't you show some sincerity?"

"After all, I am truly a bit unwilling to just help Sheng Yeting like this. You don't know that he has been causing me so much harm recently."

Yun Chen revealed a heartbroken expression as he spoke.

Xia Xingcheng was slightly sleepy. She didn't know what Yun Chen meant at first, but she had already reacted in just a second.

Presumably, Sheng Yeting did something behind his back.

She saw Yun Chen looking at her with a faint smile. Xia Xingcheng gradually lost her confidence. However, she forced herself to remain calm and said, "So, in order for you two to get along well, I want to ask you to help because those workers are really pitiful. They have been used by the developers."

Xia Xingcheng looked expectantly at Yun Chen, who was sitting opposite of her.

That was enough to make Yun Chen's heart sink to the bottom.

Even he himself didn't know what he was still hoping for.

"As long as you are here, there will never be a day of peace between us."

Yun Chen's tone seemed to be a little irritated, so he couldn't hide it.

He had been a carefree person before, but now he clenched his fists tightly and looked at the astonished woman in front of him. "So, Xingcheng, do you understand now?"

"I don't understand."

As Xia Xingcheng said this, she looked away, her face expressionless.

No one knew how violently her heart was beating. No one knew if it was due to nervousness or some other reason, but in short, it was a little unnatural.

In Xia Xingcheng's heart, she more or less understood Yun Chen's way of doing things.

In her heart, there seemed to be an answer that was about to come out, so she was very sad. Finally, after Yun Chen finished speaking, he coldly rejected her.

"Yun Chen, didn't you say that we will always be friends? What are you talking about now?"

Xia Xingcheng raised her head and pretended to be calm as she looked at the man in front of her. She didn't know why, but she didn't dare to meet his eyes.

Yun Chen's gaze never left Xia Xingcheng. The light in his eyes became deeper.

It was hard to fathom.

After a long while, he slowly withdrew his gaze. His eyes were filled with coldness.

"You know better than me what I'm talking about. Whether those people live or die has nothing to do with me. It's up to you to show your sincerity.

Upon hearing his words, Xia Xingcheng's eyes were filled with disbelief.

She remembered that although Yun Chen was a bit domineering, he wasn't like this. He was cold and ruthless, regardless of whether it was black or white.

As if she couldn't believe it, Xia Xingcheng looked at Yun Chen and repeated, "What do you mean by this?"

"Literally."

"You have to do something to make me satisfied. Otherwise, how can I swallow the pain I suffered at Sheng Yeting's place?"

Yun Chen said without any expression.

Xia Xingcheng felt that Yun Chen was a completely different person. At the same time, she was furious, she could no longer control her emotions and stood in front of Yun Chen, saying word by word: "Yun Chen, it seems that I was wrong about you. I really didn't expect that you would treat me like a friend."

Xia Xingcheng's tone was heartbroken, and her gaze towards Yun Chen was full of hurt.0

Yun Chen didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed and stood up to walk in front of Xia Xingcheng. He looked down at her condescendingly.

"Xia Xingcheng, I didn't expect that you would still be the same. You haven't changed at all."

"You aren't an idiot, there's no way you wouldn't understand. I'm not wrong, right? But you still insist on doing this. Injuring me time and time again, isn't that right?"

Yun Chen's eyes shone with a cold light. He stared fixedly at Xia Xingcheng, as if he wanted to tear her into a thousand pieces.

Xia Xingcheng knew that Yun Chen was angry. She was a little scared, but more than that, there was anger and uneasiness.

The things that she had almost known before, yet had always been deeply escaping from. Could it be that she still had to uncover it now?

She looked at the man in front of her and said with a shaky voice, "Yun Chen, if you don't want to help, then just say so. Since you are unwilling to help, then forgive me for being rude. I'm leaving."

As expected, Xia Xingcheng stood up immediately and turned around to leave as if she was about to run away.

Yun Chen, who was behind her, laughed. He seemed to have heard something funny, but the coldness in his eyes seemed to be able to freeze Xia Xingcheng.

"Xia Xingcheng, you're a good person. I have to admit that you won."

When Yun Chen said this, the hurt in his eyes stung Xia Xingcheng even more.

"You always take yourself too seriously, and so do I."

After saying something with such unknown meaning, Yun Chen lit up a cigarette but didn't say anything else.

Xia Xingcheng's footsteps paused. She really wanted to turn back and argue with Yun Chen. What exactly did he mean by those words and why did he say them?

However, in the end, she gave up on that thought.

She took in a deep breath and didn't turn around. Instead, she said carefully, "Sorry for disturbing you. I'll be leaving first."

As for the matter of her wanting to get rid of Yun Chen, she couldn't say it.

In Xia Xingcheng's subconscious, she already felt that this matter was a failure and she had no way out.

It seemed like she could only think of another way.

Without waiting for Yun Chen to continue talking, Xia Xingcheng knew that Yun Chen wouldn't say anything.

Finally, she let out a long sigh and slowly turned around to leave.

However, she couldn't get rid of the complicated feelings she had in her heart.

What exactly did Yun Chen mean by what he said today?

Or perhaps, what did he want to do and obtain?

All of these would be in vain. Didn't he know about it?

Thinking of this, Xia Xingcheng could not help but secretly swear in her heart. She definitely could not let Sheng Yeting misunderstand that there was any relationship between her and Yun Chen other than that of a friend.

Even if they did, it was impossible.

She must kill this relationship in the cradle as soon as possible because she already had Sheng Yeting. Everything was enough for her.

Since she already knew that it was impossible for her to touch him, then she must not touch him. This was a form of responsibility towards herself as well as towards others.
