Chapter 2091: Chapter 2091: The Truth Revealed
"Did you win? By removing me, you think you can have him? You’re underestimating him, and overestimating my importance in his heart."
Yiyi’s lips curled in bitterness. This woman seeks to eliminate her out of jealousy. If she truly had anything with Helian Ling Kong, it would be understandable, but being dragged into this for no reason feels truly unjust.
"I don’t know where you heard that I once had a past with him, but we broke up long ago. We haven’t had much contact over the past year. My position in his heart isn’t as significant as you think. If he truly wants to be with any woman, I’m absolutely no threat. Even if you do eliminate me, it’s pointless! You’ve picked the wrong target."
"You’re saying this to find an excuse for yourself, hoping I’ll spare you?" Fengzi snorted.
Yiyi shrugged, "A heartless and ruthless woman like you would rather kill a thousand wrongly than let one go. I’m just stating the truth; I really don’t matter that much to him."
The last sentence came out muted, admitting such facts before a rival really adds to the frustration.
Fengzi seemed surprised upon hearing this, then reached out to squeeze Yiyi’s chin, "You’re truly pathetic; I feel it’s a shame for him."
Yiyi’s face darkened, "What do you mean?"
"If he didn’t love you, why would I bother spending so much effort to try and eliminate you? Don’t take me for a fool. With my status and looks, I’m not inferior to anyone and could be better for him than any other woman, bringing more political benefits. As long as you give me a chance to compete, I won’t lose to anyone, including you. But before meeting me, he’d already fallen for you, and he’s so stubborn about it. His heart cannot contain a second person, he’s single-mindedly in love, which annoys me."
"You’re saying he loves me?" Yiyi never expected to hear these words from a rival.
Normally, rivals try their best to undermine each other, claiming the man doesn’t truly love the other side.
Yet Fengzi claimed Helian Ling Kong loves her.
She was perplexed by the woman’s thought process.
Fengzi couldn’t help but sneer, "Sometimes I truly envy you; being loved yet unaware. How could he not love you when despite my repeated seductions, he remains indifferent to my advances? And after I told him how I risked my life on the battlefield to save him, he still didn’t fall for me. I’ve never seen such a hard-hearted, unwavering man."
That’s when she truly felt defeated and furious, her inner obsession growing deeper, making her even more determined to have this man.
"You saved him on the battlefield?" Yiyi’s pupils dilated in anger, finally understanding what’s going on.
"Of course, it was a life-saving grace. Without me, he would’ve died. He owes me, and the best way to repay is by offering his life. Yet, he refused, only allowing the marriage agreement to remain unexposed temporarily due to the favor and his father’s face, eventually letting it blow over!" That man genuinely cared not about public pressure; she had people start rumors in the media, leveraging politics, family interests, and all angles to push herself and him together, yet he was unfazed.
Thus she finally understood, this woman was indeed his true heart’s constraint. Until she’s removed, he will not give up hope.
"So that’s it." Yiyi suddenly realized, this woman was the one causing trouble.
