BXBX NOVEL Chapter 74 - I'm not interested in you.
"What don\'t you understand?" HuMing pointed to the broken camera on the floor.
"If the camera was still working, our conversation could have been recorded. But now that it\'s broken, who knows what we talked about?"
SuLiu\'s face went ashen as she realized that she walked straight into HuMing\'s trap. He seemed to have guided her every step.
And she had naively thought she had been in control.
"No... No way, he wouldn\'t abandon me!"
"Don\'t believe it? Why not give him a call and see for yourself?"
HuMing crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, watching SuLiu with a knowing smile.
Desperate to grasp at her last hope, SuLiu grabbed her phone and dialed the number, only to hear the automated voice say,
"Hello, the number you have dialed is not in service."
The polite automated response echoed in the room, and SuLiu stared blankly at the number on her phone. The polite voice seemed to be mocking her, underscoring her abandonment.
Seeing the despair in SuLiu\'s eyes made HuMing feel no particular satisfaction. After all, this was something he had anticipated.
There was no need to feel overly thrilled about something already predetermined.
He was only helping Ye QiuXue get back at SuLiu.
"HuMing, help me!"
SuLiu lunged at HuMing from the sofa, but before she could get close, HuMing grabbed her neck, his eyes glinting with a deadly intent she had never seen before.
"Help you? SuLiu, have you become so bold recently that you think I\'m some benevolent figure?"
"I... I can help you find that person! He... He wants to frame you!"
The skin around SuLiu\'s neck began to turn red, and she struggled to breathe, feeling as though she might die in HuMing\'s grip.
HuMing, however, merely raised an eyebrow, his expression growing more playful.
"Do you even believe what you\'re saying, SuLiu? You probably haven\'t even seen that person\'s face. What valuable information could you possibly have?"
"I..." SuLiu opened her mouth but couldn\'t find the words.
As HuMing pointed out, she had never seen the man\'s face. He had only contacted her through phone, and the money had come from an anonymous number.
She knew nothing about him, but because he provided her with money and the comfortable life she had, she obediently followed his every command.
Now, she realized she had become nothing more than a pawn in his game.
After tonight, he would no longer contact her or give her any more chances.
SuLiu collapsed, her strength utterly drained, as if she had given up entirely.
HuMing discarded her on the ground as one might throw away the trash.
Tears streamed down SuLiu\'s face as her entire world crumbled around her, leaving her lost and broken.
HuMing looked down at her, observing her once-pure features, and thought about everything she had done.
A femme fatale, nothing more.
Suliu, who the original had liked for so long, was only scheming against him using a woman.
In the end, Han HuMing never truly saw her for who she was. Now that he, HuMing, had exposed everything, it was as if he was settling one of the original\'s lingering regrets.
HuMing\'s hand was on the door handle when SuLiu\'s voice called out from behind him.
"HuMing, do you hate me?"
"I\'m not interested in anything about you."
HuMing opened the door and left without looking back.
As SuLiu watched HuMing\'s departing figure, she curled up on the floor, crying uncontrollably.
...
When HuMing came out, the owner straightened his posture, feeling immense pressure.
HuMing approached him and scanned a QR code on the front desk to make the payment.
"Two thousand dollars, not a cent less."
HuMing waved the payment in front of him, and the owner dared not say another word. He merely nodded, not wanting to keep HuMing around any longer.
The boss had instructed him not to clash with HuMing and to let him do whatever he wanted.
The owner silently observed the young man before him, who seemed harmless.
He couldn\'t help but wonder what had happened between HuMing and the girl in the room.
HuMing ignored the owner\'s gaze and walked out of the pool hall, taking a deep breath as he looked up at the blazing sun.
\'At least one problem has been solved.\'
In reality, SuLiu was a variable he could keep or leave. Keeping SuLiu around meant he could invest more time preparing for other matters. Even if he exposed her, it wouldn\'t have a significant impact.
But the person behind SuLiu had likely provided her with considerable support. Now that she had been exposed by HuMing himself, it would probably sting for him.
HuMing smiled faintly, looking incredibly relaxed.
But before he could get far, a girl came rushing towards him-!
HuMing narrowed his eyes and was struck with slight shock.
"Ye QiuXue, what are you doing here?"
Ye QiuXue observed HuMing closely, her expression taking on an odd look as she found no apparent signs of injury.
"HuMing, there was a fight in the school restroom today. Do you know what happened?"
"A fight? It has nothing to do with me."
HuMing shrugged, his expression appearing innocent.
Ye QiuXue found it strange. After school, several bruised boys came to her to apologize, claiming that SuLiu had directed them to do what had happened the previous night.
And they ended up fighting over it.
Ye QiuXue, hearing this, was bewildered, her mind filled with questions.
Before she could start searching, the culprits confessed themselves!
The boys, however, smelled unpleasant, and some had yellow stains on their clothes.
Ye QiuXue could barely tolerate the smell. After a nod, she quickly left.
Their stories had many inconsistencies, making it clear to anyone with a discerning eye that they were lying. However, they insisted that the injuries were self-inflicted, leaving Ye Qiuxue with no way to address the situation.
Since she was the only one who knew about the situation besides HuMing, she came to seek him out.
After asking Han YunXi, Ye QiuXue learned that HuMing had left the school and said he would be home late.
So she had been searching for HuMing along the way.
To her surprise, she actually found him!
"HuMing, I already got informed of who was behind last night\'s incident."
"Hm? Who?" HuMing feigned surprise, his mouth slightly open.
Ye QiuXue carefully observed HuMing\'s reaction. It was only after confirming his unaffected emotions that she continued.
"It was SuLiu!"
"Ah? Why would SuLiu target you?"
HuMing scratched his head, his expression one of confusion.
Ye QiuXue shook her head, still unclear about SuLiu\'s motives.
"Well, it\'s good that you\'ve found the culprit," HuMing said with a smile, his demeanor comforting.
