Chapter 378 Gentle Trap (Twenty-two)

"You're so straightforward." Xie Quan sneered and looked at her with disdain. "Our family background is not something you can marry into. People should know their status. I advise you to retreat when you know the difficulty."

Know when to retreat, this phrase An Jiayi has always kept in mind.

She thought she was sensible enough and had never coveted anything that did not belong to her.

Therefore, she looked at Xie Quan, calmly enough, and said slowly: "You may have misunderstood. I have already planned to leave Xie Zhang, and I can't be the condiment for his extramarital affair."

Xie Quan did not comment on An Jiayi's statement. He looked at her with a scrutinizing look and said with disdain, "Do you think I will believe you if you say that now? I don't want your promise."

An Jiayi clenched her fists, tears of humiliation welling up in her eyes, "What do you want?"

"I heard that you have a sister who is also in the entertainment industry and is doing pretty well."

Chairman Xie," An Jiayi took a deep breath, her eyes tense, "I think what happened between me and Xie Zhang has nothing to do with my sister."

"It can be irrelevant, or it can be relevant." Facing An Jiayi's panic, Xie Quan became more and more proud. He looked at her coldly and said, "If you still dare to stay with Xie Zhang, the first unlucky person around you will be your sister!"

An Jiayi felt as if she was struck by lightning, and the biting coldness penetrated her limbs and bones. She almost wanted to scream out in pain and desperately ask for help.

But no one would come to save her. She could only look at Xie Zhang and said in an increasingly humble voice: "Tell me what you want me to do. I have only one condition, don't hurt my sister, and don't hurt the people around me."

Xie Quan gave an expected smile.

People like this who come from the lower class have weak spots all over their bodies. He can make her unable to survive with just a flick of his finger.

Xie Quan handed a card to An Jiayi and said, "I want you to find a way to make Xie Zhang give up on you. From now on, take this card and leave Hong Kong."

An Jiayi agreed without any tricks. She admitted defeat completely and humbly accepted Xie Zhang's charity, saying in a hoarse voice: "I will do everything you say, as long as you don't hurt my sister, I beg you."

Xie Zhang had a smug look on his face. He sneered at An Jiayi and said leisurely, "It all depends on my mood. Don't worry, if you listen to me, I can leave a way out for you and the people around you."

An Jiayi had earned a way to survive. When she saw Xie Zhang turning away without any regrets, she knew that she had earned a way to survive.

The night was silent. She hugged the quilt tightly in her hands and cried silently.

Afterwards, Xie Zhang never appeared in An Jiayi's life again. That entanglement was like the final period.

The ending between them was not a peaceful parting, but one of resentment and anger.

An Jiayi had no choice but to protect what she could.

Just as Xie Quan expected, she really couldn't afford to lose. She couldn't bear even the slightest risk of failure.

Bian Yue came several times and brought a lot of things to An Jiayi.

She had no idea what had happened between the two and thought it was just an ordinary argument.

It was raining outside the window, and Bian Yue sat with her on the sofa.

Bian Yue said: "Jia Yi, why don't you reconsider and go back to Xie Zhang? He has changed a lot now. He has become more introverted since you left. I can see that he is sincere to you."

An Jiayi lowered her head and looked at her palm.

There is a scorching temperature, burning my heart again and again.

She gave a bitter smile and whispered, "Whether he is sincere to me or not, it doesn't matter anymore. Bian Yue, we can't go back."

There was deep confusion in Bian Yue's eyes. She didn't understand why people who loved each other couldn't be together.

An Jiayi didn't want to explain to Bian Yue that the so-called reality was bloody and dirty, and she herself felt it was so dirty and fishy, ​​so how could she put it in front of Bian Yue again and again? She just looked at Bian Yue helplessly, with an inextricable sorrow in her eyes.

Later, on the day before An Jiayi's birthday, she called Xie Zhang.

That was the day she booked her flight to leave.

She has locked herself in the room for many days. All her work has been suspended. She has no way to calm down and live her life as if nothing had happened.

She felt that it was actually quite good to just waste time in the room.

When people are in dull pain, all their senses become numb, and the pain is not so unbearable.

So there was actually no other meaning behind that phone call. She just wanted to ask Xie Zhang if he could stop hating her.

This was all that was left on her mind.

She had used extreme means to make him leave her, but now that everything was done, she still wanted to ask him to forgive her.

It doesn't matter if we can't be together or if we never see each other again, but please don't hate yourself.

After all, she didn't want to treat the relationship with her heart, and in the end, all that was left was hatred.

However, people should not be greedy.

The person who answered the phone was not Xie Zhang, but Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan's voice was full of sarcasm. She said, "An Jiayi, why is it you?"

Jiang Yan's vocal cords were damaged because she drank too much last time, and her voice sounded rough and unpleasant.

An Jiayi's mind went blank, and she asked slowly and uncertainly, "You and Xie Zhang."

"Oh, you mean us? We are together." Jiang Yan laughed disdainfully. She said, "An Jiayi, who do you think you are? Xie Zhang has any woman he wants. Don't take yourself too seriously."

An Jiayi had difficulty breathing. She hung up the phone, and suddenly, she felt devastated.

There must be a woman around Xie Zhang, but why is this woman Jiang Yan?

Doesn’t Xie Zhang remember what Jiang Yan did to her?

He once felt deeply sorry for her, so why did he want to poke her in the most vulnerable place now?

In the final analysis, all I can say is that I can only blame myself for what I have done.

An Jiayi closed her eyes and walked slowly towards the balcony.

It was raining outside, but she didn't feel any coldness the moment she stepped onto the balcony railing.

After a long while, she closed her eyes and jumped down without any hesitation.
Her body felt weightless, and the second before her breathing stopped, An Jiayi seemed to have returned to the first time she and Xie Zhang met.

The young man in fine clothes and riding a horse sat calmly, surrounded by thousands of people. Someone lit a cigarette for him, and the light of the fire flickered on his face, leaving a swaying light and shadow. He listened to the flattery without revealing his expression, but inadvertently, he turned his head nonchalantly and looked at himself.

An Jiayi heard him say to Wang Shao beside him: "Let her go back."

She walked towards him with bright eyes, "Mr. Xie, let's get to know each other. My name is An Jiayi. Can we be friends?"

Not a lover, but a friend
