Lin Xiangyu received many disgusting messages from disgusting men.

Those private messages were explicit and disgusting, every word dripping with shamelessness and vulgarity.

Lin Xiangyu couldn't handle it and went crazy.

Gu Xun came to confront me:

"Shen Qin, whatever dissatisfaction you have, come at me. Why did you use such vicious means to retaliate against Xiangyu?!"

"She is innocent!"

"You are also a woman, don't you know what kind of harm this will cause her?!"

He questioned me with an excited tone.

He was furious for the sake of a beauty.

I vaguely remembered that when Gu Xun was young, he had also gotten into fights with other boys to defend me.

But now that we were over thirty, we were like strangers.

Yet, he still fought for the girl he loved, just like a young boy with spiky hair.

I silently watched him lose control and waited for him to calm down before asking him:

"Do you think it was me?"

"Isn't it?"

I chuckled:

"Gu Xun, back then, when I looked at the surveillance footage, it was just for evidence."

"I had no interest in those explicit videos."

After spending many years together, Gu Xun understood best that I despised lying.

Seeing me deny it, he knew that there was someone else behind the scenes, and suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Then who else could it be?"

"Of course, it's the Zhou family. I carefully chose a good enemy for you."

"I went to great lengths and used every means just to kill you."

Gu Xun had never seen me go mad before, and at this moment, he finally felt fear.

A delayed fear.

I moved forward, and the path widened.

He retreated, and the path narrowed.

Finally, his back pressed against the balcony railing. Taking one more step back would lead him to a bottomless abyss. He said with difficulty:

"Shen Qin, you weren't like this before."

"Although you were strong-willed, you always left a way out for yourself."

Was he still fantasizing that I would spare him?

Too naive.

Too hypocritical.

"Originally, I didn't plan to be so ruthless."

"But then I found the exorbitantly priced insurance you purchased for me in your safe."

"And a movie ticket for 'The Disappeared Her'."

"And what Lin Xiangyu said that day about sending me to a mental hospital."

All of these clearly indicated his malicious intentions.

Gu Xun argued stubbornly: "I haven't put those plans into action yet, have I?"

"So you did have such ideas, right?"

My eyes dimmed, and the last shred of conscience completely disappeared.

Then I don't need to hold back anymore.
