Chapter 109: A Plea

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor:

The woman was definitely a mess before her. Her dark eyes were dull without life, and her face, colorless. Even if she had intentionally put on light make-up, it did not hide the look of sickness.

Despite everything, she realized this woman was still beautiful, especially the pathetic quality about her which was unpretended. It had been forced from within her.

She was obviously in a pitiful and fragile state, but she remained stubborn and dignified as she sat, willing to forge her way through—without a care for the pain that she was bearing. Li Manni finally understood the saying of ‘a flying moth that darts into the fire’.

Its destruction was indeed beautiful in that instant. It was so amazing that one would never forget its beauty.

As Li Manni looked at Xia Ruoxin, it put her in shame. She was a highly educated individual with good family background. She had been pampered since young, but now, she had become a homewrecker. It was really a test of her morals.

“I’m sorry.” Li Manni lowered her head, unsure of how she should face all this. As for Xia Ruoxin, she was still Chu Lui’s wife. Regardless of whether he had any feelings for her, she was his legally wedded wife. By law, she was still his wife.

“Sorry? What can you do with being sorry?” Xia Ruoxin smiled mournfully. That caused Li Manni to have mixed feelings. It became so unbearable that she wished she was somewhere else.

“Miss Xia, what Lui and I had was not what you thought it was.” As she said it, she had no idea what she should say next... because she did not know how to explain it. She and Chu Lui might be in love, but out of respect for her, he had not been intimate with her physically. As lovers, they might have already had sex.

To try and explain that they haven’t was the same as slapping herself.

Xia Ruoxin shook her head gently. In fact, she needed not to say or do anything. Chu Lui had said everything very clearly.

“Miss Li, can... you leave him?” Xia Ruoxin asked her softly. That kind of grace and prestigious family background was something that she could not be compared with.

Li Manni turned pale abruptly. “I-I...” She groaned for a long time. Although she knew that Xia Ruoxin had sought her out to ask this question, she had no idea Xia Ruoxin would be this straightforward. She had not thought that this would be an incisive question.

“Miss Li, you have everything: a good family, looks, and education. Your future is limitless. Without Chu Lui, you are still you. But me? I am nothing without him.” Xia Ruoxin gripped at her now-misshapen hand. She sounded harsh. “He is the only one I have. Tell me how I should survive if I were to leave him.”

She looked away, and the exterior light fell on her face. She looked up, dismayed. “You have no idea as to what extent is a woman’s love for her man.” Decades. She had waited for him and loved him for decades. “My love for him has not changed even when he loves another woman. I still loved him when I knew that he married me with a motive. I love him with all I have, to the extent of losing myself and losing everything. Yes, I love him. Because of him, I slept on another man’s bed and allow him to abuse me.

“Miss Li, do you think this kind of woman is pathetic?” She looked at her as rows of crystal-like tears finally fell from her eyes and hit Li Manni hard.
