Chapter 123 They Don't Deserve to See It
ront of Kane. She was still so guarded... Kane saw it in his eyes and a flash of understanding crossed his mind, along with a hint of... excitement.To break through the defenses of a heavily guarded p...Xiao Heng!
Jian Tong finally understood. This game today, was for a reason.
Wei Sishan said: I will do my best to fulfill my duty.
Who this "person" is, doesn't matter.
But Xiao Heng's appearance here, was it a coincidence
She lost her kidney, not her mind.
In her heart, she already understood. She didn't look at Xiao Heng, but instead looked at Wei Sishang beside her. Wei Sishang naturally noticed her gaze, and when she turned her head, she didn't see the defeated and embarrassed expression on Jian Tong's face that she wanted to see, but saw the clarity in Jian Tong's eyes, as if she could see through everything.
In the blink of an eye, Wei Sishan felt a panic rise within her. Under Jian Tong's all-seeing gaze, she was transported back to the feeling she had three years ago when facing Jian Tong for the first time… Back then, whether she confronted Jian Tong head-on or plotted against her in secret, Jian Tong's eyes always held an unnerving clarity that saw through everything.
It seems like her little tricks didn't even register with Jian Tong... but, that was three years ago!
Three years ago, Jian Tong had a halo above his head!
And now
Even stripped of her halo, Jian Tong still possesses those piercing eyes
Oh, heavens! How unfair!
How can a prostitute, such a slut, still have such eyes!
Xiao Heng clenched his fists, "I don't believe it! What Miss Jian family, what bribing thugs, Jian Tong she is just an ordinary woman! Where did she get the money to do all this!"
Wei Sishan was furious with Jian Tong, and seeing Xiao Heng staunchly defending this woman made the jealousy in her heart almost consume her: "Young Master Xiao is really interesting. Isn't there Jian Daren, Jian Tong's brother, standing by your side But it's not surprising, who would blame Young Master Xiao You moved to America before and don't know what's happening domestically."
Wei Sishan said, and let out a cold laugh:
"The girl you're talking about, from an ordinary family, her name is Jian Tong. Three years ago, she was still the eldest Miss Jian, her elegance - back then who in Shanghai wasn't aware of it"
But because she had framed her friend, she was humiliated by a group of thugs, leading to her friend's suicide which she couldn't accept. This incident shook up Shanghai at the time and became well-known to everyone.
It's ironic that the man she cherished and dreamed of put her behind bars with his own hands.
Xiao Heng looked at Jian Mo Bai, his eyes full of inquiry: "...Is it true"
Jian Mo remained silent, but that was acquiescence.
Xiao Heng's heart pounded, as if struck by something!
He looked at Jian Tong again: "Is it true"
Jian Tong watched Xiao Heng through the crowd… that big boy's confusion in his eyes, she saw it all too clearly.
Wei Sishan poured fuel on the fire: "Who is Shen Xiujin, Xiao Dashao wouldn't be ignorant of him, would he Back then, it was he who personally sent Jian Tong to prison."
"If there isn't such a thing... then ask the young masters around you, ask their families, whether they recognize this person, Jian Tong!"
“I remember, the Jian family published a notice in the newspaper denying that there was anyone named Jian Tong in their family.” Wei Sishan said, her gaze falling on Jian Mobai’s face: “We outsiders might not believe her, but if even her own family doesn't believe her, then Xiao Shao, tell me, is she guilty”
If even her own family doesn't believe her words, then Xiao Shao, tell me, is she guilty
This sentence startled Xiao Heng, leaving him in a state of utter confusion!
He looked at Jian Mo Bai, but the latter turned his head away... The meaning was so clear—what Wei Si Shan and the others said, was all true!
Xiao Heng was still a little dazed... He had always thought that Jian Tong was just a woman who had to fall into the dust.
He didn't even know she was the eldest Miss Jian, that she had done such despicable things!
Slander, bribery, plotting, gang rape... Which crime is not utterly ugly!
He was a little flustered and suddenly looked at the box of red banknotes. Then he remembered what Wei Shanshan and the others had just said: "Jian Tong, for money, you can do anything!"
He also remembered, from yesterday in the private room, Cain's ambiguous and strange tone... so, it turned out that everyone knew, he was the only one left in the dark
He could accept everything about Jian Tong, but...
A wave of unwillingness came crashing in!
Xiao Heng couldn't accept it. The first woman he truly cared for... was like this! As proud as he was, how could he fall in love with such a selfish and hideous murderer!
She can be unbeautiful, unlovable, and flawed! But only!
You cannot have character defects! Your heart is rotten, dirty, and black!
This is unacceptable.
No, no, no... He only loves her body, only loves her lips. He just had a moment of madness and thought that this was love... He's Xiao Hang, the heir to the Xiao family, how could he fall in love with a shameless, despicable, ugly, disgusting murderer!
No!
He firmly rejected it all in his heart!
Xiao Heng finally turned his gaze to that group of people, kneeling on one knee and prostrating himself to a woman who was massaging the feet of an old man... "I give you a chance, they said… Was there a single lie"
At this moment, Xiao Heng was no longer the big boy in Jian Tong's eyes, a stark contrast to his previous sunny image. Not far away, in the eyes of the people, Jian Tong, the woman considered utterly base by them, her gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on the man who had accompanied her for many days... In the end, she had shown him her most wretched side, letting him see who she was and what kind of past she harbored.
Jian Tong ignored the ache in her chest, looking across the crowd at Xiao Heng... only she hadn't expected that, in this way, she would open Pandora's box, and in this way, make him see her humiliation and past.
She slowly opened her mouth: “Xiao Heng,” This was the first time since they met that she had addressed this big boy-like man like this. "I’m saying, I didn't frame Xia Wei Ming for being raped, do you believe me"
Wei Sishan laughed out loud: "Jian Tong, you dare not do it but talk a big game! Don't you even have any shame If it didn't happen, would we wrongly accuse you Even if we wrongly accused you, would Shen Xiujing wrongly accuse you"
"If you didn't do it, then explain! Why wouldn't your own parents recognize you Your brother, Jian Mo Bai, is right here. You're being bullied! Why doesn't he stand up and help you He just lets us mistreat you"
Every word, every sentence, struck a chord in Jian Tong's heart!
If you didn't do it, would Shen Xiujin wrongly accuse you
If you didn't do it, how would your parents not recognize you
If you didn't do it, your brother would just stand there in front of you and let you be trampled on without even coming to your defense!
One sentence after another!
Jian Tong took a deep breath, her chest aching so badly she could barely breathe... She also wanted to scream back:
Is it my fault that I was wrongly accused by Shen Xiuqin!
My parents don't think I'm wrong, do they
My brother stood in front of me watching me being bullied, without moving a muscle. Am I wrong
Because of Shen Xiuqin, because of my parents, because of my brother's choice... so, I am innocent, and yet I am guilty!
Who really cares about the so-called truth!
Since even Shen Xiujin took action, it's estimated that this matter is eight or nine out of ten true, she must have done it!
Anyway, both her parents refused to acknowledge her. It seems like she did it!
Anyway, we bullied her so much and her brother just stood there without saying a word for her… it must have been her who did it!
Her gaze swept across the crowd...weren't they all just taking things for granted After all, it had nothing to do with them. It was a world where one minute you were friends, and the next, if someone fell on hard times, the very first person to turn against you could be your closest "friend"!
She suddenly closed her eyes! That was the only way to conceal the tumultuous waves of emotions surging beneath their surface.
They cannot be seen, they do not want to be seen... They don't deserve to see! even if you turn to ashes, I would recognize you. Little one, big brother is sorry..."At the sound of "brother", Jian Tong's heart trembled."I'm not. I don't know you, sir.""Little one, how are you d...
