BXBX NOVEL Chapter 232: 232 What Do You Want Me to Do?
Meng Ziqi was startled and wanted to say something, but was left speechless as she met Jin Chenye’s ruthless gaze.
His eyes were terrifying!
“Get up; this is not your fault, you shouldn’t have to apologize,” Jin Chenye extended a hand toward Meng Ziqi.
“No, it is my fault. I knew my aunt was being wronged, but in order to protect the Meng family, I falsified my testimony… I allowed the murderer to escape justice and made my aunt bear the brunt of these charges. I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…”
Meng Ziqi pushed herself up from the floor, moved to Jin Chenye’s side, and grabbed his hand to put it on her face.
“Ye, slap me, slap me a few times, I’d feel better…”
“My aunt was so kind to me when she was conscious, I was just like a daughter-in-law to her, yet I failed to speak a word of truth for her. I don’t deserve her love.”
“I’ve told you it’s not your fault.” Jin Chenye retracted his hand. In the corner of his eye, he noticed the bandage that Meng Ziqi was pulling at and saw the stain of blood, he hesitated before helping her to her feet.
He lifted her sideways and carried her to her room.
“Get some rest.” Jin Chenye turned to leave.
“Ye…” Meng Ziqi quickly reached out and grabbed the hem of his pants, her face filled with grievance and fear. “Are you going to seek revenge against Qin Youxuan?”
“I know Qin Youxuan is your sister. Even when she is determined to take over the company, you have always been considerate toward her. But can you now turn a blind eye after she has harmed Auntie?”
“The one who forced you to change your testimony was Dan Hanjie, not her.”
“But isn’t what Mr. Jie did the same as her actions?” Meng Ziqi mentioned Dan Hanjie, and she couldn’t help but feel afraid. Her face changed slightly before she calmed down. “If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have made a mistake as soon as you joined the company, the Qin Group wouldn’t face a crisis, and my aunt wouldn’t have ended up in such a state…”
“Ye, you regard her as family, but she has always seen you as an enemy. If she had any humanity left, things wouldn’t have escalated to this point!”
“What do you want me to do?” Jin Chenye’s tall figure stiffened. He slowly turned around and looked down at Meng Ziqi who was sitting on the hospital bed.
There was no hint of inquiry in his eyes, only a chilling glare.
“I… ” Meng Ziqi paused, at a loss for words.
Of course, she wanted Qin Youxuan dead to eliminate all future difficulties.
But with Dan Hanjie defending her, she didn’t dare.
“Remember, you and her were good friends.” Jin Chenye tossed out the sentence indifferently while giving Meng Ziqi a side glance.
Meng Ziqi felt her scalp tingle under his gaze and tone.
She lowered her gaze, “From the moment she wanted to kill me, I knew that she was no longer the Xuan I knew…”
Jin Chenye felt a pang in his chest.
The Xuan he knew was indeed gone.
From the moment she chose to return to the country, he could never find her again…
Jin Chenye’s eyes dimmed, and he stepped away.
Looking at Jin Chenye, who always reacted abnormally whenever Qin Youxuan was mentioned, Meng Ziqi’s hand clutched the bed sheet tightly, gritting her teeth.
The Qin family mansion.
Qin Youxuan returned alone to the mansion entrance, only to find that in the span of just over ten days, dust had gathered on the front door, giving the Qin family’s mansion a desolate look.
“Miss, you’re back.” The butler opened the door as usual.
Behind him, there wasn’t a single servant in sight.
Seeing Qin Youxuan’s surprised look, the butler forced a smile, “Most of the servants in the Qin family have resigned. The word outside is that the Qin family is cursed, and nobody wants to work here.”
