C34

The rain outside the window grew heavier and heavier, pouring down through the glass and drowning out the voices in the infirmary.

Dr. Tian and the nurse stood aside and stole a glance at the woman in front of them. The CEO and her didn't seem to be talking to the female staff. Who exactly was this woman?

Li Jingzhi's evasive eyes were caught by Si Luoming, her heart was like a mirror, her hands in her pockets standing in front of the gigantic window, looking down at the cars and horses below, her expression cold and indifferent, she did not continue speaking.

The more Li Jingzhi tried to escape, the more Si Luoming wanted to know why he hid the truth on Su Qing's behalf.

Si Luoming had long investigated Li Jingzhi's situation privately, and the surveillance record on that night was already made clear to Cao Hui when he was at the office.

"It looks like the old tutor didn't teach you anything else. He actually taught you how to lie." Si Luoming turned and stared at her. He took his hand out of his pocket with a cold expression.

Cao Hui who was standing at the side secretly indicated for the doctors and nurses to leave.

The doctor and nurse bowed their heads and hurried out.

"I am not lying. That night, Su Family indeed did not harm me."

Li Jingzhi continued to bite at her answer.

"The Su Family gave you a sedative?" Si Luoming turned around, and looked at her with contempt, and spoke with a tone of ridicule: "Then how can you prove the injury on your ankle before!"

"My ankle was injured... It had nothing to do with Su Family.

Li Jingzhi lowered her head to her ankles, as she stammered.

Su Qing's words still echoed in her ears, how could she not take it to heart.

"That night, the Su Family did not chase you after all?" Si Luoming asked again as his voice rose in volume.

Hearing that, Li Jingzhi's gaze started to wander, her body became timid. She sat there and thought for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth, "No."

Si Luoming frowned, he looked at the lady on the bed, her eyes were filled with cold intent, "Hand it over."

He could no longer tolerate this woman in front of him.

He gestured for Cao Hui to bring the thing over and extended his hand towards Cao Hui.

Seeing that, Cao Hui immediately put the documents in his hands on the table, then retreated a few steps back.

"Do you think this is you, or is there another woman in this world who looks exactly like you?" Si Luoming took out the photo of the folder and threw it on her bed. He stood there with his hands folded across his chest, looking at her.

Li Jingzhi reached out to pick up the picture that was scattered across the bed. Her expression instantly turned gloomy as she placed her hand on her lips.

She didn't know how she should reply to that lie. She just sat there looking at the pictures of her in front of Su Qing's car, one after another. She looked so miserable in the photos, her hair was scattered all over and her body was covered in mud.

"What do you want to say now?" Si Luoming stood there with a condescending look, as if he was questioning her.

"Say what? Why are you questioning me like this? Shouldn't you be happy that Su Family is like this? "

Li Jingzhi spoke coldly as she slowly arranged the photos in her hands one by one. Her eyes revealed a silence that never existed before, as if something had drained all her energy, and her speech became weak as well. It was more like a sadness that couldn't be expressed.

"Why would I be happy? If Su Qing really did that, how would I explain it to him?" Si Luoming glared at her and said, his eyes filled with annoyance.

"Then you can rest assured, what Su Qing wanted to do did not happen. I do not have anything to do." Li Jingzhi raised her head and handed the photo over to him, her eyes dim.

Si Luoming received the photo with one hand and his face turned gloomy. He said coldly, "I don't want to send Su Qing to jail because of a woman like you."

Li Jingzhi heard her words and said lightly, "Then you can rest assured that Su Qing will not be that stupid."

Su Qi's death caused him to be filled with guilt towards her Su Family, and she even doted on Su Qing.

"Su Family wants to hurt me … Since you've already investigated me thoroughly, why do you need to ask me again?" As Li Jingzhi said this, her brows furrowed from the pain beneath her feet, "If Su Qing succeeded that night, you would be very happy right now, right?"

"…"

Si Luoming stood there, lowering his head and looking at Li Jingzhi who was massaging her ankle on the bed, her face extremely gloomy.

"Using my life in exchange for Su Qi's life, will this all end?"

Li Jingzhi moved her pillow back a little, leaned back a little, and slowly raised her head to look at Si Luoming. His eyes lost all color, and the tears that she was trying so hard to hold in were still flowing out of his eyes.

"Li Jingzhi, your life isn't worth trading for the person I care about the most!"

Si Luoming suddenly clenched her hands tightly, his handsome and cold face moving closer and closer to her little.

"…"

Li Jingzhi's ankles were already in unbearable pain, and her wrists were tightly grasped by him as well. The double pain caused her to close her eyes and grind her teeth in pain.

"If I wanted to use your life to exchange for Su Qi, would you still be able to live until now?" Si Luoming glared at her, and continued, "What I want is to let you live in guilt for the rest of your life, and to repent for yourself forever!"

Guilt, Confession...

Li Jingzhi's tears lingered on her eyes for a long time, but they still flowed down her face and neck unbearably when she heard these words.

Just hate her as much as he loves Su Qi.

A person's life was filled with guilt and remorse. This kind of pain was worse than death.

Wasn't it laughable that the man I used to love with all my strength wanted you to live in such a purgatory …

Li Jingzhi looked at her face which was clearly outlined, his eyes were hollow and tears flowed unceasingly from the corners of his eyes.

The moment of grievance, disappointment, sadness, pain, and despair appeared in her eyes. She released them along with her tears.

"If I could, I'd really rather not know you."

After a long while, Li Jingzhi parted her lips and spoke in a quiet, hoarse voice.

"…"

Hearing this, Si Luoming stared at her black eyes tightly, as if his heart had been heavily struck. This sort of pain disappeared as quickly as it came, and his reason quickly devoured this tiny change in his mental state.

She said she would rather not know him.

How could he hope to know her?

"Li Jingzhi, why would I want to get to know you? If you're not here, Su Qi wouldn't leave either!" Si Luoming pulled her forward, and looked at her red and swollen eyes that were crying, without changing his emotions.
