I'm sorry, young master, I'm sorry! I don't want to hurt you, but — Forgive me, forgive me!

Seeing that Tantai had agreed, R immediately smiled in satisfaction. He stretched out his hand to lift Ming Xi's lower jaw, forcing her to look at him with tears in her eyes. "If I had made the decision earlier, wouldn't I have stopped crying? If you don't cry, will you take a small step towards being brave? " He then reached out his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face.

Ming Xi couldn't help but tremble under the caress of R's hand. She turned her head to the side, away from his hand, without looking at him.

"I hope that you promise me two things after this. From now on, don't bother me again!" Ming Xi bit her lips as she spoke.

R smiled, then shrugged. "No problem. As long as you finish this, I'll do it!"

After hearing R's words, Ming Xi felt as if all her strength had been sucked out of her, and fell powerlessly to the ground. She turned her head to look at the frozen image on the screen, tears streaming down her face.

Mother Yun, when will you wake up? Ming Xi was so helpless, so painful, so lonely... Mother Yun, why don't you wake up and accompany me?

Seeing the sad look on Tantai Xi's face, as if the whole world was collapsing, R frowned and lazily opened his mouth, "I only caused him to lose a few hundred million, is there a need to make me look like I'm taking his life? Heh! Anyway, he won't be able to use up all his money! "

Hearing his words, Ming Xi immediately turned her head and looked at him with her red and swollen eyes. With a look of disbelief, she asked, "Is what you said true?"

Seeing the reaction of Tantai Xi, the Great Sage laughed coldly. Did this woman really think that the man was so important? Even if he continued to hurt her time and time again, even if it became more and more intense, would she still stubbornly refuse? Would she still need to protect that man? Heh! What a stupid woman! There was no saving him from his foolishness!

However, if it was just a few hundred million, why would he waste so much effort?

What he wanted was for him to lose all his reputation!

"Won't you know after doing it?" He saw Ming Xi sitting on the floor. His eyes turned cold, but he turned around and walked out of the room. "Rest well first. Tomorrow morning, I will tell you what to do!"

As she gazed at the departing back view, Ming Xi's eyes turned increasingly dark. This kind of reaction was something that she probably did not notice herself.

Early the next morning, Ming Xi began to slowly walk towards the hotel that Xue Qi was so surprised by. She walked, dazed, through the deserted streets of the early morning.

The morning breeze carried a heavy chill. Ming Xi tightly pulled her thin clothes as she walked step by step towards the hotel. She walked expressionlessly, her heart desolate at the thought of what she had told him that morning.

When would she be able to avoid being used by others? When would she not have to be a tool of revenge? Why was there always someone forcing her to do something she didn't want to do? Why?

Could it be that no one wanted to bully her because no one doted on her?

She was someone no one wanted. In this world, no one protected her, which was why she was bullied!

Dad, why hasn't the man who protected me appeared yet? Is there no one in the world other than you? There is no one in the world who can protect me except the people who use me, who hurt me, who insult me.

Dad, every time I thought I had found it, but in the end, it was just wishful thinking. In the end, the hope became despair. I no longer expected it. I no longer foolishly expected it.

Ming Xi walked on in a daze, not even noticing that she had already crossed the road. She had just reached the center of the zebra crossing when the street light suddenly turned red, but she kept walking.

"Di" an ear-piercing sound of a car rang in her ears.

Ming Xi was so shocked by the sound that she immediately took a step back in panic as she looked at the stream of cars speeding away from her. Ming Xi turned in panic to return to the main street, but when she turned around, she found that there was a steady stream of cars passing by behind her.

She stood on the zebra crossing and looked around at the cars going back and forth, listening to the noise of the traffic.

His eyes turned cold as he looked at the red light's time. He then coldly told the driver, "Take her to the hotel. Remember to remind her of the purpose of this trip. "Also, bring her back after she finishes her work!"

"Yes sir!" Then he parked the black sedan at the edge of the road.

R pushed open the door, then stepped gracefully out and strode in the direction the car had come from. The instant he got off the car, he took off the mask on his face. His incomparably charming face was exposed to the air. His cold and handsome face had a faint smile on it, but that smile was extremely creepy.

Ming Xi, one day, you will understand that I am truly being nice to you! You'll thank me only after you've gotten rid of him!

Xue Qi was sitting in a luxurious hotel room. He was wearing a black robe that was tied loosely around his body, exposing a large area of perfectly firm muscles on his chest.

He finished reading the last page of the last file in his hand. Then he threw the file onto the table, leaned back wearily on the sofa, and rubbed his temples. That evening he read through all the information he had on Mr. Bullock and all that was needed at the meeting today. I'm so tired …

Just as he was about to rest for an hour, he heard a knock on his door.

"Come in!" Xue Qi shouted lazily in shock.

After hearing Xue Qi's surprised agreement, Minghan gently pushed the door open and then walked into the room respectfully.

"CEO!"

"You have news of her?" Xue Qi closed his eyes in shock and rubbed his temple.

"CEO, still searching!" "However, before the end of the meeting, I will find Young Mistress!"

"En!" He was truly tired, and had absolutely no interest in other things.

"The meeting time of the CEO has been confirmed. It will be 10 o'clock in the morning!" Minghan looked up at the clock in the room and continued, "There's still two and a half hours before the meeting begins. The CEO can take a break for now, and I'll call the CEO for the last half hour!"

"En!" Xue Qi acknowledged Ji Hao with a shocked and nasal voice, then stood up and prepared to go to his room to rest. However, the moment he stepped into the room, he suddenly stopped. He turned his head slightly and ordered Minghan, "Call Chen Qiqi over!"
