Chapter 62: It’s All My Debt

“Thank you.” With a simple word to the receptionist, Zhang Ziqin’s cold CEO demeanor couldn’t manifest in the Lu Corporation that belonged to Lu Li.

The receptionist looked at Zhang Ziqin with some disdain. When their President Lu was pursuing President Zhang, this woman was indifferent. Eight years, ah, wasn’t President Lu’s persistence enough to move heaven and earth? Yet, this woman, while enjoying the benefits requested by President Lu from Old President Lu, despised President Lu in every possible way.

Now that President Lu had given up, stopped pursuing, and severed all cooperation with the Zhang Corporation, this woman came running back…

Played herself, didn’t she? The string-along lapdog ran away, huh! Now coming with roses to feign deep affection, is this trying to disgust President Lu?

So realistic.

Zhang Ziqin silently left the Lu Corporation, got back into her car. These past few days weren’t her first time here, but she never went inside.

Closing her eyes in pain, in her previous life, she, in her ambition to expand the Zhang Corporation, ignored her lover’s feelings. Lu Li, over the course of eight years, countless times came to her company’s door with flowers and lunch boxes, but she, focused solely on work, repeatedly coldly rejected Lu Li’s kindness.

She could see the disappointment in Lu Li’s eyes; Zhang Ziqin felt some guilt, but these feelings were quickly pushed to the back of her mind as she continued on to the next task because she firmly believed Lu Li would never leave her.

Always so fearless when favored!

Then, Ye Chen appeared.

Ye Chen’s arrival was strong. At that banquet that Zhang Ziqin would regret for a lifetime, he approached her, presented an irresistible offer, making Zhang Ziqin, eager to prove she wasn’t relying on Lu Li, tempted.

Just then, Lu Li’s voice rang out, angry, shouting at Ye Chen.

Drawing all eyes to them, she was also very angry, feeling Lu Li’s distrust was an insult to her, a loss of face.

After that glass of red wine was thrown, everything seemed to change.

She saw Lu Li’s dejected departure from the Zhang family estate, silently apologizing in her heart, thinking Lu Li would understand her eventually.

Zhang Ziqin didn’t believe for a second that Lu Li would leave her just like that. He had followed her for eight years without ever giving up; how could he abandon her over a collaboration with another man?

Accustomed to Lu Li always being behind her, she unhesitatingly started the collaboration with Ye Chen.

It was just cooperation, Lu Li would understand! If he loved her, he should trust her.

How foolish she was then!

Afterward, Lu Li’s pursuit seemed to cool down, becoming routine, something everyone could see. Lu Li had given up, only she was still deluding herself that Lu Li loved only her.

Ye Chen’s appearance was like a spark that finally ignited all the bitterness of Lu Li’s previous eight years.

From that glass of red wine, from the start of her collaboration with Ye Chen, everything changed.

Back then, Zhang Ziqin never considered whether she was wrong. Maybe she knew, but she still went ahead.

Because of being favored, so fearless!

These days at the Lu Corporation, all being rejected by Lu Li, just these cold rejections made Zhang Ziqin feel as if her heart was being cut open. She couldn’t even dare to believe how Lu Li had persisted for those eight years.

Starting over, Lu Li still gave up on her.

It was all her fault; she made Lu Li completely lose hope in her.

Tears fell like rain.

Just hearing the rumors about Lu Li and that Chen Xiaoyi, she was unbearably distressed. In her previous life, she actually expected Lu Li to trust her. Such a Zhang Ziqin was pitiful and hateful, but not worthy of pity!

“Lu Li, I’ve already felt the hardships you’ve endured. I’ll continue to feel them, no matter how long it takes, I must win you back. What I owe you, I’ll make up for all of it.” Silent tears fell from her eyes as Zhang Ziqin silently told herself.

Wiping away her tears forcefully, she drove towards the Lu family estate. Since Lu Li wasn’t at the company, then she would go to his home to find him.

Compared to Lu Li, what was the Zhang Corporation!

***

At the entrance of the Lu family estate, Cao Yingying took a deep breath, yet her heart couldn’t calm down.

Grandpa was right; if you like someone, you should tell them openly. Pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend is a desecration of love.

But Cao Yingying couldn’t help feeling nervous. Confessing like this was a first for her; usually, she preferred to express her feelings through actions, accompanying Lu Li was her way. But in the end, she missed her chance.

This made Cao Yingying reflect on herself.

Perhaps she really needed the courage to speak her heart out, just like Grandpa said.

But the problem was, in Lu Li’s eyes, they hadn’t known each other for long. She was someone who had returned from her previous life, having fallen in love with Lu Li back then, but Lu Li didn’t know!

In his eyes, she was just a woman he hadn’t known for long.

Would her sudden confession scare him?

With myriad thoughts, Cao Yingying couldn’t help but feel nervous.

How do I look in this white dress? Will Lu Li like it? Is this lipstick shade too dark? Will Lu Li like it?

“Miss Cao, why are you here?” Just then, a voice full of surprise came.

It was Zhang Ziqin.

She looked at the woman in front of her with a complex face, as beautiful as her, even more so.

After Lu Li’s death in her previous life, Cao Yingying forcefully prohibited anyone from touching his corpse, even forbidding the Lu family from paying their respects because Cao Yingying felt they didn’t deserve to, appearing before Lu Li would only make him uncomfortable.

Like a wife, she took care of all Lu Li’s affairs, not even allowing Zhang Ziqin to get involved.

Even Lu Li’s tomb was off-limits to her.

Although they had teamed up against Ye Chen, Zhang Ziqin knew Cao Yingying disliked her, no, detested her, and knew her feelings for Lu Li.

At this time in her previous life, Cao Yingying and Lu Li shouldn’t have crossed paths yet, but now Lu Li was Cao Yingying’s grandfather’s doctor.

Was this heaven’s punishment for her?

“I naturally came to find Lu Li, but I don’t know why Miss Zhang would be here?” Cao Yingying’s tone was very polite, with a hint of hostility.

Although they had fought against Ye Chen together, avenging Lu Li, the hurt this woman caused Lu Li made her feel no fondness for Zhang Ziqin. If not for Lu Li’s feelings for her, Cao Yingying would have wanted to deal with Zhang Ziqin and Ye Chen together in her previous life.

I wanted to protect Lu Li, but you hurt him so. The person I wanted to cherish, why should you treat him like that?

“I’m also here to find Lu Li.” Zhang Ziqin looked at Cao Yingying somewhat hostilely.

No matter what, Lu Li was the one she would not give up on.
