My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 726: Side Story Five: Loving You Was Just an Accident

Chapter 726: Side Story Five: Loving You Was Just an Accident

Returning to A City, I had my assistant further investigate her situation. It turned out that the reason she chose to work at Nightshade was because her mother was diagnosed with uremia a few years ago. An ordinary job couldn’t possibly cover their daily expenses and the expensive dialysis fees, so she had to stay at Nightshade. And that night, when she danced erotically at Nightshade, it was a one-time thing; she wasn’t one of the dancers there.

Knowing all this, my anger subsided a bit. I had Old He find her and give her an employment contract. If she signed the contract, she could work at the Fei Group. She majored in computer science in college and had good grades; she should be able to handle the job.

The salary and benefits at the Fei Group are top-notch in the industry. Working there should help her get out of her current predicament. But a few days later, Fei Yichen called me and told me that she didn’t report to work at Fei Group.

Why would she refuse a respectable job and insist on staying at Nightshade? The answer was obvious.

She hates me. She would rather work at a place like Nightshade than accept my help.

This realization made me very angry. What made me even angrier was that she was willing to sell her body for money.

In fact, as long as she came to me and asked for help, I would have unhesitatingly aided her. But she was too stubborn. She would rather give up all her pride and dignity in front of others, sinking into an irreparable situation, than come to me for help.

Doesn’t she want to maintain the last bit of ludicrous dignity in front of me? Fine, let’s see how she reacts when she realizes that the money sponsor who wants to buy her is me.

The result was as I imagined. When she saw me in the presidential suite, she was stunned, standing there as if she had been cursed with immobility.

The surprise and fear on her face were all captured by my eyes. I reveled in her changing expressions, feeling a sadistic pleasure in that moment.

Doesn’t she dislike me? Doesn’t she not want to see me? Then I’ll make sure she has no choice but to see me.

She recovered from the shock and wanted to escape, but I didn’t want to give her a chance. I lunged forward and pulled her into my arms.

The familiar scent made me want to sink into it, but the trembling body in my arms reminded me that she didn’t want me to touch her. She resisted me with both body and soul.

She lowered her head, thinking that I wouldn’t recognize her that way. Ha, how silly and naive she was!

I looked at her with eyes full of sarcasm, laughed coldly, and saw her bite her pale lips tightly, her body curling into a ball. My heart twisted painfully, burning with an unbearable heat.

If I’m in pain, I won’t let her feel any better.

"What’s this, surprised to see me? After all, we’re old acquaintances. Leaving without a word seems a bit rude, doesn’t it?"

I forcibly lifted her chin, making her raise her head. She began to struggle violently but couldn’t overpower my strength, "Is this how you treat your sponsor?"

I knew those words would deeply wound her pride, but I couldn’t help saying them. Seeing the fleeting pain in her eyes, my heart wrenched, but there was no taking back the words once spoken.

I opened my mouth, wanting to say something to make up for it, but saw her suddenly smile, her eyes filled with detachment, "So it’s Mr. Leng. I’m sorry, I didn’t recognize you just now."

Her eyes were big and bright, her palm-sized face as white as snow, beautiful and striking, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes.

There was a cold distance in her eyes, no ripples of emotion at all, as if I were no more than a speck of dust to her. This made me feel both pain and unwillingness.

"Mr. Leng? After three years, you’ve become distant." I hid my emotions well but struggled to find a hint of the old light in her eyes; ultimately, my effort was in vain.

"Mr. Leng and I aren’t familiar, so there’s nothing to talk about in terms of distancing."

I clenched my fists, sneering, "Really? So sleeping together doesn’t count as familiarity?"

"You know the truth, Mr. Leng. What you said to me back then, I remember clearly."

Lin Yixun’s words undoubtedly reminded me of what happened back then. In the year we were married, I almost never set foot in our marital home, let alone touched her.

Back then, my heart was full of hatred, always thinking about revenge, so I naturally didn’t touch the enemy’s daughter. But now, Lin Yixun’s indifference made me suddenly change my mind.

"Are you resentful that I never touched you back then? If that’s the case, it can be remedied."

Seeing her eyes widen in disbelief, my tightly twisted heart felt a rush of pleasure. She was cold to me, wasn’t she? She wanted to cut ties with me, didn’t she? How could I let her have her way?

"Sorry, Mr. Leng, I’m not doing this deal anymore."

She turned to leave, but how could I let her get what she wanted?

Tonight, she’s not going anywhere!

"Lin Yixun, three years, and you’re still so naive?"

When she opened the door, I took a few swift steps and intercepted her easily.

The moment my body pressed tightly against her back, I felt a strange sense of relief.

Leng Yixiu, Leng Yixiu, haven’t you always wanted to have her? Since that’s the case, what are you still waiting for?

At the same time, deep in my heart, another voice spoke: Leng Yixiu, you can’t do this. If you do this, Lin Yixun will hate you even more.

In the end, desire triumphed over reason. I picked her up and threw her heavily onto the large bed behind me. Ignoring her resistance, I pressed down on her tightly.

After three years apart, her body had become even more emaciated, making one instinctively want to protect her. Yet, the fear and hatred in her eyes fiercely stabbed at my heart.

Does she despise my touch that much? Does she hate me that much?

I felt like an injured hedgehog, with all my spikes raised. "Lin Yixun, what do you think you are now? You’re just a whore. Have you ever heard of a prostitute getting to choose her clients? Since you’re selling yourself, why put on an act of being a chaste martyr? Don’t you want money? As long as you satisfy me tonight, all this money is yours."

As the words left my mouth, I saw the layers of pretense crack on her face, a trace of hurt flickering in her lifeless eyes.

Looking at Lin Yixun’s face scarred by the banknotes, I belatedly realized what I had just said. I had never imagined I would say such venomous words to a woman, especially the one I couldn’t forget for years.

I opened my mouth, wanting to make up for it, but her hoarse and cold voice interrupted me, "Mr. Leng, four years ago, I forced you to marry me. That was my mistake, but I’ve already paid the price. I owe you nothing now. Mr. Leng, we’re even."

"Even?"

She wants to cut ties with me that much? But what can I do? I don’t want to, not even a little.

Over the past three years, I’ve tried every way to expel her from my world, but in the end, I found that I couldn’t. Only now do I dare to admit that some memories don’t fade with time but instead become more profound.

Just thinking that Lin Yixun no longer loves me, that she wants to cut ties with me completely, makes my reason, which I’ve always prided myself on, instantly vanish.

I grabbed her neck and coldly said, "Do you think you’ve repaid your debt to me? It’s not enough, far from enough!"

How can she say she’s even with me?

When she loved me, she recklessly intruded into my life, disrupting it and leaving me in ruins.

Now that she doesn’t love me, she wants to withdraw and forget everything. How can there be such an easy way out in this world?

The pain in her neck was intense, making it nearly impossible for Lin Yixun to breathe. She had no doubt that Leng Yixiu would take her life in the next second. Leng Yixiu seemed very angry, extremely angry.

She didn’t resist, or maybe she couldn’t. Her expression was blank, her eyes full of sarcasm as she looked at me. Her calmness made my anger flare even more.

How could she disturb my peace of mind and still remain so composed?

I desperately wanted to see a different expression on her face, so I did something crazy.

As the sound of fabric tearing rang out, a flicker of emotion finally appeared on her blank face. No, it should be fear and loathing.

She loathes me!

This realization nearly drove me mad.

"Still don’t understand? Or do you like something different?"

I took off my tie and tightly bound her hands. Finally, I covered her eyes with a black cloth.

There was too much hatred in her eyes, full of sharp sarcasm that left me nowhere to hide.

So, I covered her eyes just to hide the hatred in them. I thought, as long as her eyes were covered, I could deceive myself into believing that she still loved me, that she was still the same Lin Yixun who deeply loved me.

"Leng Yixiu, you’re drunk. You must be drunk! Look at me, see clearly who I am! I’m not Cheng Ying, I am..." In the large room, I heard Lin Yixun’s trembling voice.

"I know, you are Lin Yixun."

How could I not know?

Hearing that she sold herself for money, besides the anger, there was more fear. Just thinking of her being pressed under another man, serving him, drove me nearly insane.

So, I left everything in T City and rushed here.

The moment I claimed her, she tensed like a drawn bow, curling into a ball and trembling in my arms.

The hoarse sound of her voice reached my ears, like a wounded animal’s whimper. My heart felt like it had been struck hard, but I didn’t stop because everything had already happened and couldn’t be undone.

But I have no regrets because I’ve left my mark on her. She can never cut ties with me again.
