Fu Yinxiu's heart tightened, realizing that only this woman had the power to hurt him with her words. Only she could do this to him, and it was he who had given her this power.
"I was blind!" Ming Yutong let her tears fall without blinking, looking at him with a mixture of disappointment and finality.
She was truly disappointed in him, Fu Yinxiu could see that.
But why? What right did she have to be disappointed in him?
The disappointment, the pain she was experiencing, he had already felt all of it. When she abandoned him and Jingshi, he had felt it all.
For seven years, he had been living with that pain, and he was still feeling it now.
What reason and right did she have to be disappointed?
Hah!
Even if she was truly disappointed, it was only because she was now experiencing everything he had gone through.
"I don't regret loving and giving, but I regret that the person was you!" Ming Yutong suddenly started struggling wildly in his arms, "How can you be so bad, so despicable! Even if we parted ways, couldn't you leave me with some good memories? Did you have to show me that the man I loved is so hateful and unworthy?"
"Unworthy?" Fu Yinxiu's eyes turned red with anger, his grip tightening on her wrist.
"Hahaha..." Ming Yutong laughed through her tears, filled with mockery and despair, "I'm really... really... done. If it weren't for my family and Jingshi supporting me, if I were alone, I would have given up already. I'd rather die and find relief than live like this."
Ming Yutong's long hair was a disheveled mess, making her look anything but good, even particularly pitiful.
Tears had smeared her makeup, turning her eyeliner and mascara into black smudges around her eyes.
The color on her lips had blurred, smudging around her mouth.
But Ming Yutong didn't care at all.
What face did she need to save in front of Fu Yinxiu?
"Fu Yinxiu, please, let me go, I beg you..." Ming Yutong cried, collapsing.
It was no longer Fu Yinxiu holding her, but her clinging to his clothes.
Ignoring Fu Yinxiu's livid expression, she looked at him with utter defeat.
Ming Yutong seemed to calm down gradually, her eyes now cold and lifeless.
"You want to f*ck me, right?" she said mockingly, her voice quiet. "Fine."
Fu Yinxiu's brow furrowed. Did this woman know what she was saying?
"You want to do it in front of everyone, don't you?" Ming Yutong suddenly let go of Fu Yinxiu's clothes, her hands moving to the buttons of her shirt. "In front of Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2, is that it?"
She undid one of her buttons. "You just want to humiliate me in front of everyone, right? Go ahead."
Ming Yutong continued to unbutton her shirt, her voice filled with a hopeless determination. "After this, Fu Yinxiu, can you let me go? I can't take it anymore. If you don't, the next time you want to torment me, you'll have to visit my funeral."
At that moment, it seemed like she didn't care about anything anymore. She had been pushed to this breaking point by Fu Yinxiu.
Seeing her complete disregard, her attitude of giving up, and as she was about to undo the third button, Fu Yinxiu grabbed her hand forcefully, stopping her.
"You're crazy," Fu Yinxiu said in a deep voice.
"Hahahaha..." Ming Yutong laughed hysterically, "Yes, I'm crazy. You drove me crazy. You think I'm shameless, you think I'm cheap, so I'll show you just how cheap I can be. Didn't you enjoy doing this in front of people?"
Ming Yutong laughed again, her laughter tinged with madness, "Come on then."
Fu Yinxiu, with a tense face, gripped her wrist and dragged her inside, pulling her into the elevator. They rode it to the floor where Ming Yutong lived.
He pulled her to the door, pressed his finger on the fingerprint scanner, and the lock clicked open.
Ming Yutong was stunned, realizing that he had her fingerprint recorded. No wonder he could enter her home as if it were his own!
As the door opened, Fu Yinxiu pulled her inside. It felt more like his home than hers.
But as soon as they stepped inside, Ming Yutong was shocked by the sight before her.
Her home had been turned upside down!
Even Fu Yinxiu was taken aback, his grip on her arm instinctively loosening.
Ming Yutong shook off his hand and rushed inside.
All the cabinet doors were open, drawers pulled out, and their contents scattered everywhere.
Small tools and personal items were strewn across the floor, including her intimate clothing, which lay carelessly among the mess.
Seeing this, Ming Yutong felt as if she had been slapped in the face.
The living room TV was knocked over, its screen shattered.
The floor was marred with dents and scratches from overturned furniture and appliances.
Ignoring the wreckage, Ming Yutong dashed to her bedside table.
As expected, both drawers were pulled out.
The bottom drawer, which contained things she might need at night, like lip balm and a book for sleepless nights, was empty.
The top drawer, which only held her diary and a pen, was also empty.
Now, both drawers were lying on the floor, their contents gone.
Ming Yutong dropped to her knees, frantically searching through the chaos.
Even among the scattered intimate clothing, she couldn't help but imagine the intruders handling and tossing her personal items.
