Chapter 389: Chapter 390: Even I Might be Killed
The thought of having been in a relationship with such a vile woman for so long gave him a chill down his spine.
He looked at Leng Peini as if he didn’t recognize her. He said in a strange tone, “In my eyes, albeit you’re hot-tempered, I never thought you were manipulative. I prefer directness, frankness. That’s why I dislike women playing tricks, and I thought you were straightforward. That was to my taste. Hence, I could tolerate your temper. I thought, despite being bad-tempered, you were… pure.”
Ye Xingli shook his head in self-mockery, “Pure? How could such a term suit you? Just over an unfounded incident, you could heartlessly jeopardize a human life. I suppose your heart has turned as dark as coal.”
“No… I didn’t mean it… I didn’t… I’ve not done it…” Leng Peini’s face paled, shaking her head to Ye Xingli’s accusations.
She wished so much she had been wrongly accused.
She wished she hadn’t done anything.
Now that the truth was unveiled, Ye Xingli would never forgive her.
She was about to lose Ye Xingli!
Fear tightened its grip on her heart, causing a pain worse than death.
Ye Xingli harshly threw the evidence that Gu Chi handed him at her. “Solid evidence is here, and you think a careless denial could absolve you of the atrocities you’ve committed?”
He closed his eyes. There was a suffocating pain in his chest, and his breathing became labored.
After some time, he opened his eyes and said slowly: “Leng Peini, I’m officially breaking up with you today! From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other! To me, there’s never been a disgusting and wicked woman named Leng Peini! Owing to our past relationship, everything you did against Beibei, I will make up for it. Now, please leave and never appear before me again!”
“No… No!” Leng Peini shrieked in desperation, throwing herself onto Ye Xingli and clutching him tightly. She sobbed, “Ah Li, I love you! Everything I did was because I love you too much! Because of my profound love for you, I feared that you would be taken away by another. No matter what I did, it was all due to my immense love for you!”
“Is love an excuse for hurting others? If that’s the case, does murdering another person out of love mean it’s not a crime and shouldn’t be punished?” Ye Xingli angrily pushed her away. “If I were to marry someone, she doesn’t have to be beautiful, she doesn’t have to be romantic, she can even be clumsy or foolish, but she must be kind-hearted! You tried to kill Beibei by swapping her life-saving chocolate. Even though it wasn’t against the law, your intent was malicious. I could’ve found a thousand ways to avenge Beibei and to kill you! But these were all things you did when you were my girlfriend. Considering our past, I’ll let your mistakes go. But please, have some decency, disappear right now and don’t disgust me with the word ‘love’ again!”
“No… Don’t…” Leng Peini shook her head frantically, her cries choked with sobs, “Why… why are you treating me like this? I… I’ve been living in fear every day, scared that Ye Xingbei would take you from me, scared that you would dump me… I… I’ve tried really hard… Why… why are we still breaking up… why.” “Because you’re evil!” Ye Xingli coldly declared, “Beibei is my cousin. I wouldn’t marry her. You tried to kill Beibei over an unfounded assumption.. Now that I’ve discovered your wickedness, why would I marry you? What if you decide to kill me one day, should you take a dislike to me?”
