Chapter 89: Uncovering the Truth

lickered on and off. He Yufan watched as Zhou Guangtao's car drove away into the distance. In a corner unseen by anyone else, tears welled up in her eyes.When she first decided to work here, He Yufan...Chapter 89: Discovering the True Eight Aspects

Yan Luoxi gently pushed open the door, just as she was about to call Li An in, she suddenly heard him mention Zhou Guangtao's name over the phone. She abruptly stopped.

Vaguely, Yan Luoxi could hear Li An speaking: "... This matter must be handled properly; I'll give you one last chance. You have to deal with Fang Jianghai and ensure he doesn't cause any more trouble for He Yufan; his usefulness is long gone. Tell him that if he dares to pull another stunt, I'll cripple him... Also, I've already made arrangements with He Yufan so she won't meet my wife again in this lifetime, but you still need to keep an eye on her... All personnel at Hongyuan Group involved with Aunt Xue's matter must be reassigned and not allowed to remain in Zhu Kou City; everything needs to be done without a hitch. In the future, don’t call me casually like this..."

Yan Luoxi stood there immobile, staring at Li An from afar as well as Fang Jianghai and He Yufan. What roles did they play in the stories of his past What had he done to her mother And what exactly was she

Sensing something amiss behind him, Li An suddenly turned around and saw Yan Luoxi standing at the door, her face pale as paper, devoid of its usual luster and rosy hue.

Li An felt unprecedentedly anxious; he quickly hung up the call and rushed over to撫上Yan Luoxi's face, repeatedly saying: "Luoxi, I love you, I love you very much..."

In a daze, Yan Luoxi pushed him away, regarding him as if he were a dangerous beast. She retreated step by step until she was backed into the wall, coldly staring at Li An.

"Luoxi, listen to me!" Li An's heart was on fire with agitation.

Yan Luoxi looked down at him from top to bottom, her gaze sharp and intense. "What else do you want to tell me How much of what you said is true and how much is a lie Your schemes are terrifying!"

Lǐ An heard Yan Luoxi's cold voice, which made his fear rise rapidly. He clutched at her hand tightly as if she would run away at any moment.

"Lǐ An, what did you mean by what you said just now What have you done to me, Zhou Guangtao, and Hè Yufan And my mother's corruption and imprisonment—did all of that come from your planning" Yan Luoxi’s gaze was sorrowful, pained, and almost unbelievable. She wished so much that everything were a lie, mere illusions.

Cold sweat broke out on Lǐ An's forehead and nose; he knew that there was no way to evade anymore. All he could do was repeatedly say, "Luoxi, regardless of what I've done in the past, it’s all because I love you! It’s all because I love you!"

The last shred of hope shattered, Yan Luoxi felt something block her chest—she couldn’t breathe in nor out. There was only pain left. She lightly supported herself against a wall and sat down on the sofa, speaking softly but with unusual resolve: "Lǐ An, tell me everything you’ve done. This time, I want to hear the truth. I give you one last chance."

Lǐ An moved to Yan Luoxi's side, kneeling before her leg, his expression sorrowful and tone sincere. "Luoxi, I can tell you everything. You can hit me or scold me, but don’t leave me."

Yan Luoxi thought for a moment and nodded. "Alright, start talking to me then!"

"You won't leave me" Lǐ An asked anxiously.

"I won't leave." Yan Luoxi nodded gently.

Liy An gritted his teeth and began to evade the serious issues, recounting what he had done in a way that downplayed their significance. However, no matter how lightly he described these events, Yan Luoxi was involved herself; she could still recall the tumultuous waves of those times.

Listening to Liy An's account, her heart felt as if it were being gnawed by countless ants and scorched by raging flames. She sat there unable to even shed a tear, feeling only pain.

Yan Luoxi couldn't fathom how she had encountered Liy An or why fate would bring her face-to-face with someone so scheming and ruthless.

Sadly looking at Liy An, she wished that all of this were just a cruel joke, but his words rang clearly in her ears, making it impossible for her to deceive herself.

"Luoxi, everything I've done is because I love you. Even if I hadn't taken action, you and Zhou Guangtao would have eventually parted ways anyway; you two aren’t meant for each other. He Yu Fan's intentions were impure, so even if she suffered some injuries, it was her just deserts. Later on, she sought me out again, asking for my help to free herself from Fang Jianghai and secure a twenty-million yuan alimony payment from him.

As for Aunt Xue... at the time I had no choice; you wouldn’t accept anything from me. Actually… if Aunt Xue hadn't been greedy, things wouldn’t have turned out this way…”

Yan Luoxi silently watched Liy An with boundless sorrow. This man was truly domineering and self-centered, clearly in the wrong yet still trying to shift blame onto others.

Sitting up mechanically, she walked outside with a hazy gait and a mournful expression.

"Lu Xi, where are you going Where do you intend to go" Li An reached out and tightly embraced Yan Luxi.

Yan Luxi lowered her head and said softly, "An, let's take a break for now. Can I have some time to think"

"No, no can do, you promised me that you wouldn't leave... Lu Xi, you promised. You can’t go back on your word..." Li An clung onto Yan Luxi like a child.

Yan Luxi looked up and glared fiercely at Li An, "What kind of value does my promise have with someone like you Perhaps Zhou Guangtao and I would break up in the end, but if not for your sabotage, Guangtiao wouldn't see his hard work destroyed. And Yufan wouldn’t meet Fang Jianghai nor become that old rogue’s mistress...

My mother might be greedy, but she wouldn’t have done something so crazy had you not schemed against her. How much did your actions hurt her pride She broke up with Uncle Lei because of this matter; do you know how heartbroken she was

Lian, you always think only about yourself when doing things. Have you ever thought about the pain others have suffered due to these incidents..."

"Lu Xi, I know I’ve made a mistake, but I’m trying my best to make amends. Yufan now has 20 million and her own company; I’ve also given Auntie’s company to her. As for Zhou Guangtiao, I’ll help him rise again..."made people's hearts race.The blood in Heyufan’s body suddenly froze, and her heart began to pound wildly as panic set in. She wanted to leave quickly but her legs felt like jelly, lacking strength. A...
