Chapter 52 — Loving Someone

Call the police? Before any criminal act had been committed, Wang Pu could simply deny everything he had said. Still, Zhou Yanning struggled and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll call the police?"

"Call them, by all means. Once the man is dead, if you want to call the police, go right ahead," Huang Shu said unhurriedly.

"You—you—" Zhou Yanning lowered her head, strength draining from her. Yes—other things she did not care about, but she could not be indifferent to Yang Ce.

The Yang Ce of today had become everything to Zhou Yanning, the pillar that held up her daily life. If anything happened to Yang Ce, then she might as well not live either. And if Yang Ce came to harm because of her, Zhou Yanning would blame herself to death.

Looking at Huang Shu's face full of evil smiles and Wang Pu's expression of utter unconcern, Zhou Yanning felt an urge to die. She herself—she was truly a sinner.

She had brought Yang Ce no help at all; instead she was forever creating trouble for him. It had been so before, and now it was worse than ever. Zhou Yanning gave a faint sigh. In any case, her relationship with Yan could no longer be repaired, and Yang Ce must by now loathe her utterly. If she could sacrifice herself in exchange for Yang Juehuan's peace and happiness, then whatever she had to do would be worth it.

Wasn't there a saying—to love someone, you don't have to be with them; so long as they live happy and content, that is enough.

To be continued.
