Chapter 18 Coffee on His Shirt
A week after Xu Zichen went out of contact, I finally got his message.
Inside the cafe, he looked like a stray dog, staring at empty air.
Bangs covered his eyes. Unshaven stubble sat on his chin. His clothes clung to him in wrinkles.
The moment he saw me, he dropped to his knees.
"Gu Qian, I'm begging you! Save Sheng Yiyi! We treated you badly before, but please, for the sake of how I helped you last time, make Feng Si let her go. I'll take the blame myself."
From his tangled words, I pieced together the whole thing.
To retaliate for Xu Zichen taking me away on his own, Feng Si had kidnapped Sheng Yiyi.
For a whole week, Xu Zichen used every connection he had and searched the whole city. He still found nothing.
Looking at his lowered head, I laughed like I had gone mad.
"A scumbag with a heart? I really didn't see that coming..."
"Then back then, when I sold myself to Feng Si for you? Did a dog eat your conscience?"
"Don't even talk about saving her. I only hope the three of you die!"
I picked up the cold coffee and threw it straight at Xu Zichen.
Brown liquid spread across his white shirt, like my stained life.
