Xiao Ning looked at Gu Qiqi’s serious and yet joking gaze.
She knew that she could not hide from her this time no matter what.
She said with difficulty, “Qiqi, I am with Bai Yeyuan willingly.”
What?
“Willingly? He’s your uncle!” Gu Qiqi almost slammed the table. “Tell me, are you willing to be with your uncle? It’s fine if you’re young and insensible, but he actually harmed his niece at such an old age. Did he grow up so he could be fed to the dogs?”
Xiao Ning held her drink sadly. She lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, “He’s not my biological uncle… My mother is the Bai family’s adopted daughter. There’s no blood relationship between us.”
“You’re lying to yourself, Xiao Ning!” Gu Qiqi was exasperated at her failure to convince her. “What adopted daughter? No blood relationship? These are just excuses. Your mother was a daughter in the Bai family and you have to call him your uncle! This is the reality! How would the world care if you two are really uncle and niece? They will still break your backbone. Oh, no, they will only break you because this world has always been tolerant of men. As long as a woman takes a wrong step, she will be consigned to eternal damnation!”
Gu Qiqi thought of Yun Qiao.
If Yun Qiao was the big star Xiao Qiao from her previous life, then did she die in the bathtub in the hotel’s presidential suite covered in blood because of the rumors?
She remembered the cause of Xiao Ning’s death in her previous life.
Xiao Ning was pregnant! Two lives were lost!
If it weren’t for the fact that Bai Yeyuan’s identity as an uncle would cause this child to suffer the disdain of the world from birth, how could Xiao Ning possibly die with her child?
Seeing that Gu Qiqi was angry, Xiao Ning shrank her shoulders and bit her lips. A trace of moisture appeared in her eyes. “Qiqi, I understand everything you say, but… But I owe him…”
“What do you owe him? Do you have to humiliate yourself like this?”
“Qiqi, I owe him my life.”
Gu Qiqi was speechless. Damn it. This was too serious.
Xiao Ning sniffed. “Fifteen years ago, I was kidnapped. The other party was an outlaw. No one from the Xiao and Bai families dared to save me. It was Uncle who personally went to the base of the bandits to save me…”
Gu Qiqi was speechless. Was the person Xiao Ning talking about that scumbag Bai Yeyuan? Why didn’t she believe it?!
Xiao Ning nodded affirmatively. “Qiqi, I didn’t lie to you. Back then, he was shot in the chest and his shoulder was slashed more than ten times. Even now, he still has old injuries.”
“So, you’re trying to repay him with your life?”
The tears in Xiao Ning’s eyes nearly fell out. “I wanted to repay him and I never thought of giving myself to him… But…”
But that night, because she secretly climbed over the wall and went out, she was caught by Bai Yeyuan. In the hazy night, he seemed to have suddenly become a wild beast. Caught off guard, he dragged her into his cave and tore her into pieces…
He wanted her to repay her debt in this way. What else could she do…
“But what?” Gu Qiqi frowned.
“But since it’s already like this, I’ve decided to treat this as a way to repay my debt. Anyway, there’s a time limit. After I repay it, I’ll be free. I won’t owe anyone anymore and can live my life in peace.”
“Limit?”
“Yes, Qiqi. You don’t have to worry about me. Our shady relationship won’t last long. I guarantee that he’ll leave me soon.” Xiao Ning said confidently.
Didn’t he say that he only treated her as a toy?
Who would be infatuated with a toy for so long?
