That’s good? How is it good?

Qin Muchen was baffled, there was a look of doubt in his dark eyes.

Gu Shinian pretended to be casual about it. “It is not worthwhile to do so for someone like me.”

The middle-aged man must be very loyal to Qin Muchen.

If so, it was all the more not worthwhile.

“Someone like you?” Qin Muchen sneered, as he spoke in a mocking tone. “So it turns out that you know what kind of person you are as well.”

He thought that she was heartless.

“You used unscrupulous divisive tactics to get what you want. You are ruthless and heartless. You can sacrifice your own child and disregard your own innocence just to go into hiding. In order to get close to me, you staged an accident and came up with a show of saving someone’s life and giving your heart to me.”

“Gu Shinian, do you know that you are a terrible person?”

He had done many bad deeds.

He took people’s lives, destroyed others’ companies, drove people to desperation… However, he would always follow one principle: to be open and honest.

He would tell his enemies what he would do to them even when he was plotting to frame them.

He was open in all his actions. He would not do sneaky things.

Gu Shinian was different. She seemed to be a good person but he suffered huge and irreversible losses with one single mistake of his.

“…You must be full of regrets.”

Gu Shinian’s eyes formed moon-like crescents upon hearing his words. She had a gentle but bitter smile on her face. “Do you regret crossing my path back then?”

“If I could start everything all over, Gu Shinian, I would rather I die from my injuries. I don’t wish to deal with you.” Qin Muchen had no expression on his face, he exuded such a hostile aura that no one dared to go near him. There was deep hatred and regret in his dark eyes.

Gu Shinian’s heart ached at the sight of him.

To her, their chance encounter back then was the most beautiful memory in her life.

She was at her happiest during that one and a half years.

However, her happiest times were Qin Muchen’s saddest times.

Gu Shinian lowered her head, she was swept in a turmoil of emotions. She could feel a dull ache in her heart.

She turned paler by the second.

Qin Muchen noticed that she seemed abnormal.

There was a slight quiver in his eyes. He lifted her chin. “Gu Shinian, what’s wrong with you?”

“I am in pain.”

Gu Shinian spoke the words through clenched teeth.

“My… foot is in pain.”

She could not say that she had heartache.

Qin Muchen lowered his head and took a look at her shoes, looking grim.

He carried her by the waist, placing her on the sofa before he half squatted and took off her shoes.

There were red stains on the white socks.

Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes and asked angrily, “Can’t you take good care of the injuries on your feet? Don’t you want to use your legs anymore?”

She had deep cuts on her feet yet she was all over the place!

Did she think that her feet were made of stainless steel or diamond!?

Gu Shinian had a tight grip on the sofa, she seemed to be in terrible pain.

Qin Muchen muttered a curse before he stood up and walked outside.

Gu Shinian gasped for breath after he left the room. Beads of perspiration dripped onto the back of her palm. Veins could be seen on the back of her palms due to her tight grip on the sofa.

Qin Muchen came back with a doctor in no time.

The doctor attended to the injuries on the feet while Qin Muchen asked, “Is everything okay?”

The doctor examined her before answering. “She should be fine as long as she doesn’t come into contact with water. Try not to move about these few days and the injuries will heal very soon.”

“Are you certain?”

Qin Muchen frowned, he questioned the doctor further as he did not feel assured.

The doctor nodded. “Yes.”

“Why is she so pale-looking then?” Qin Muchen lifted her chin, revealing her stark white face.
