Chapter 316 - Broken

"Who did he play around with? And how did he do that?"

"He and the other actresses in Blue Diamond Entertainment spent about one hour alone in his apartment at Imperial Jade Palace."

"Who else knows about this?"

"Only those that he played around with and me… We are all terrified that you would find out, so we did whatever that we could to contain that news…"

Mo Xi raised her eyebrows a little as her inner voice sounded.

So, they still know that they would be done if they dared to play around like that? Also, did they really think that I wouldn't know whatever they were doing? If it wasn't that I had found out fast enough, that news would have spread like wildfire!

However, Mo Xi remained calm on the surface, "What else?"

"He… He started to use me as a tool to vent out…"

"Continue."

"He shouted at me and spoke harsh words to me…"

"Did he beat you?" Mo Xi asked in an angry tone as she pointed at the bruises on Hu Dan Dan's arms.

"No! No! My clumsiness caused these while I was practicing self-defense. I took up taekwondo lessons. Xing Ze never beat me before."

Mo XI looked into Hu Dan Dan's eyes to see if she was lying while she was starting to get angry.

Mo Xi was angry because if Xia Xing Ze really caused those bruises, she would really end his career right away even though she knew why he behaved the way he was acting.

When Mo Xi saw that Hu Dan Dan wasn't lying, she sighed in relief.

"He basically treated me the way Mo Yu Ye treated me…"

Hu Dan Dan's fingers were fidgeting while she spoke, and her body was trembling slightly.

"Do you know why Xing Ze changed so much?" Mo Xi asked Hu Dan Dan instead.

Mo Xi knew what was going on between Hu Dan Dan and Xia Xing Ze. However, she wanted to force Hu Dan Dan to say it out.

The main reason why Mo Xi wanted Hu Dan Dan to speak about whatever that was going on between her and Xia Xing Ze was that she wanted to help Hu Dan Dan understand the reason why Xia Xing Ze was acting that way. The second reason was that Hu Dan Dan needed someone to vent and talk things out with.

"No…"

"What were you like when you were with Mo Yu Ye in the past?"

"I thought I loved Mo Yu Ye, so I took care of him and followed him with my whole heart. I continued to help him and love him even when he treated me poorly."

"What was Mo Yu Ye like?"

"He played around and only wanted to have sėx with me…"

"What were you like when you were with Xia Xing Ze in the past?"

"I was happy, but I still loved Mo Yu Ye even when Xing Ze loved me with his whole heart…"

At this point, Hu Dan Dan finally seemed to realize something, and her eyes widened.

"Boss, are you… are you saying that Xing Ze is treating me this way because he thought that since I loved Mo Yu Ye when he treated me so poorly, then he would abandon his true self and become someone that I love?"

"I am not saying that whatever Xing Ze is doing is right. Neither am I finding excuses for his scum like actions. However, I just want you to give him a chance and give yourself a chance. Xing Ze continued to protect you and loved you even when you betrayed him, so I think he deserves a chance to explain his actions to you."

Xia Xing Ze continued to protect Hu Dan Dan's reputation even when he found out that she betrayed him with Mo Yu Ye. Furthermore, never did he ever talk bad about her in front of others. Hence, that showed how much he cared for her even when he was broken.

"It might have seen like Xing Ze let you go easily when he found about you and Mo Yu Ye, but it was never easy for him. Do you know how he looked like when he came to me for help?"

"He looked like a lost soul. Someone that was broken into pieces and was forced to stand again. It took him a lot of effort to convince himself to let you go because he loves you. It took him even more effort to come to me for help because he knew that you would be broken if Blue Diamond Entertainment was to interfere. He would never have come here if he had any other choice, and he would never have come here if his siblings were not in danger. Even though he came to me for help, he refused to talk about what happened between you and him and never did he let anyone else know about how broken he was, even his siblings didn't know about it. Do you know what else he said when he came to me for help?"

Hu Dan Dan was already in tears when he listened to Mo Xi's words, and she shook her head once again.

Mo Xi took her tablet and searched for the contract that she had signed with Xia Xing Ze and passed it to Hu Dan Dan.

"He told me not to hurt you. He said that you would be sad enough when you find out about the kind of person Mo Yu Ye was, so he asked me to protect you as much as I can. His second request was for you to come over to Blue Diamond Entertainment and to put you near him. He gave me all the shares he has of the Xia Company in return for the two requests."
