Chapter 103: The Price of No Return-2

bursts of busy sounds came from the other end of the receiver, and after repeated dialing, there was still a series of fast and orderly 'beep' sounds pouring into the eardrums.

Time is like gold, and every minute and second may make me farther away from the light that flashed in my mind just now, and even drift away in the end that I can't even hold.

I got up and came to the hotel lobby.

"What room does Situ Lei live in?"

After looking through the check-in registration book, the lady at the counter went aside and made a phone call and came back to tell me that only those who had an appointment with Situ Lei could meet.

"Wait a minute, could you please contact him once and tell him that Xia Luolin wants to see him."

The lady at the counter was obviously reluctant to ask Situ Lei's opinion for me, because her expression was obviously shocked when she called just now, and then her face turned green. Presumably she must have touched Situ Lei's cold nail.

But under my tongue and soft foam, she finally picked up the phone and asked for me. The result after hanging up the phone is as I expected, and he is willing to see me.

The top floor of the hotel.

He seems to like to live on high places. Whether it is his room in the student union or the residence of the hotel, it is at the highest end of the building. This is also like his personality. He likes to look down at the smallness in front of him. Looking at everyone's distance from him, it seems that there will be a sense of satisfaction in his heart. At least that's what I think.

At first, I didn't have such an idea about him, but since I came back this time, compared with his changes two years ago, this feeling is almost as obvious as the willow catkins raised in the wind.

I had made up my mind to say the well-thought-out words to him, but when I came to the door of his room, I suddenly hesitated and wavered my faith. Thinking of what he once said, I said to him that night, if you want to revenge, watch us suffer with a smile, and now we are finally connected.

The means and tricks he used to deal with Ye Yichen and Yuan Meng clearly made me feel that he had changed. Become indifferent, cruel and ruthless. He can trample on other people's efforts, dignity, and everything he can...

He did it to make me miserable, and Ye Yichen was powerless. Thinking of this, my hand is so deadlocked by the door, and I know what it means to knock down now.

Maybe everything is destined to be good in the dark, and as Sister Rui said, if the mute eats too much, human nature will become thinner and thinner. I can no longer cling to Ye Yichen like a greedy bloodsucker and put too much pressure on his shoulder. No matter where this relationship begins and ends, sooner or later he will be crushed by it.

After settled down, I knocked on Situ Lei's door.

There was only a wall lamp slightly lit in the room. A long-lost, warm orange light sprinkled between the sofa and the coffee table, and several books were piled up in a mess.

Situ Lei's face is still as white as when I saw him in the hospital.

"What's the matter with me?" He was still indifferent, and the sunny orange light did not soften his cold face at all.

"Your father named Ye Yichen came here, right?"

"Oh? Have you met his father? He looked at me and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Well, that's right."

"Since we have met, you must know those things. Then why are you still coming to me now? Do you come to question me because you can't get angry?

"No, I'm here for something else."

He looked at me with a meaningful look, as if he knew the purpose of my trip, and as if he couldn't figure out what the real intention of my late-night visit was. I just thought about it many times and enjoyed it.

Two years of separation have made us add countless strangeness to each other, and it seems that we have permanently lost the tacit understanding that we can communicate and understand each other with just one look.

"Please let Ye Yichen go. I will bear the losses caused to you and Minghui."

"Do you bear it? What do you take to bear? Instead of laughing at my overpowerful words and deeds, his eyes quickly turned into a sharp blade and stabbed my body, making people feel cold.

"Do you need me to speak so clearly? That 18 million is nothing for you, the president of the Minghui Student Union, and the son of the school board. As long as you say a word, you can make this matter hidden like a white cloud, can't you?

I looked at him. Although his eyes were cold, I also dealt with it indifferently.

"Oh, even if I have this ability, why do you want me to erase this matter by your words? You think too highly of yourself." He smiled coldly.

"Indeed, I have neither money nor power, and I have no background. But I have this." With that, I took out the starfish pendant from my pocket.

Situ Lei's eyes stopped in my palm in an instant. As soon as I reached out to grab it, I quickly pulled my hand back.

"Why, it's here." His hand stopped in mid-air and asked in a tense tone that was rare to him.

"I took it off from your mobile phone when you were hospitalized. I wanted to throw it away, but now it seems that I'm still here." I looked at him with a smile, and his face turned a little red in anger or ashamed of being caught.

"Do you think I will let Ye Yichen go because of this?"

"I know you won't, but seeing that you are still so nervous about this pendant, you will definitely agree to what I said next." I put away the proud smile just now.

"Say it." He returned to his previous indifference.

I looked at him and took a deep breath: "I agree to your previous request to join the student union. But please erase the money Ye Yichen owes to Minghui and explain to his father that I don't have that kind of relationship with him. Let him not misunderstand Ye Yichen.

I lowered my head slightly. At this time, I was really pleading, which was also my last hope. I didn't have much hope of success, but when I saw him so nervous about the starfish pendant, I also had a little confidence and confidence in saying this. As long as he agrees to let this matter pass as a condition for me to enter the student union at this moment.

"What did you say?" Situ Lei shouted at me angrily, and then pushed me to the corner of the wall and clasped my shoulder. His fingertips seemed to be embedded in my meat, which made me feel painful.

"Why do you ask me to say it again when you hear it!" I shouted at him with pain.

"This is the condition you put forward, and you can do this for him. You almost didn't think about Yuan Meng and refused me at the beginning. Now he actually takes the initiative to vote like me for Ye Yichen.

But at this time, he was like a demon who killed red eyes. Blood surged up his eyelids, and the hatred on his face almost turned into a flame to burn me. Then he sprinkled into the vast sea and never entered his heart.

"Why do you decide that I will promise you?"

"If you are willing to see me late at night, you will also be nervous when you see that starfish!" Regardless of the late night, I didn't think about whether there were other people living next door, and whether they would hear the sound of me and Situ Lei almost close to quarreling in the middle of the night.

......

"Isn't that what you want? At this time, I'm satisfied with you. You should be happy. Why are you holding me like this!" My tone became cold and I tried to break free from his hands, but he grasped it tighter and tighter.

"Do you think so highly of yourself? I just want to hear what you will say. You think the student union really needs you so much.

There was a trace of ridicule and a touch of fun hidden in his jealousy. For example, I completely overestimated my worth, which was just a joke he said on a whim. Perhaps for him at that time, he really wanted me to enter the student union. But now I'm just a waste paper, and after losing my available value, I'm thrown aside.

"In a word, do you agree or not?"

I completely ignored his words, his expression, and the anger that he could almost destroy me to satisfy. He just wanted to get the answer from his mouth.

"Okay, but don't regret it." After a moment of silence, he finally gave me an answer.

As soon as he said, the big stone hanging in my heart finally settled. I knew that I won the bet. But I also know better that this matter will not end like this in his word 'good'.

"But you must cut off all contact with him..."

Finally, the crucial words slowly came out of his mouth word by word. It seems that every word is like a nail as heavy as a thousand pounds. It nailed me here and nailed me to his side without leaving half a step.

"Is this your request?"

"Yes, if you can't do it, you can leave now, as if we haven't met tonight." With that, he slowly let go of the hand holding my shoulder, and the feeling of numbness was quickly dispersed by the blood poured in.

But my heart will no longer feel warm.

"Ding..."

The ringtone of the mobile phone trembled slightly with the vibration, and Ye Yichen's name flashed on the mobile phone screen.

Has he woken up? Did he call to ask when he saw the bag of money I put next to the sofa, or did Sister Rui tell him that I knew everything? Or, he wants to apologize for yelling at me before...

Countless things flashed in my mind, his voice and appearance, and the heavy weight when we were together...

"Why don't you answer? Don't you want him to know that you are with me now?" Situ Lei looked at his name constantly flashing on his mobile phone, with a contempt in his tone.

"Nothing." With that, I pressed Ye Yichen's phone and removed the battery to prevent him from calling again.

"Is he very important to you, or are you so afraid that he will know that we are together and unhappy?"

"I said, it's nothing. Let's continue with what we didn't finish."

Evacuating towards the clouds, the mist recedes, and the moonlight seems to be covered with a thin veil. Situ Lei looked at me silently, and I was also quiet in this faint night. Probably there is a beginning and an end, and the beginning and end will end because of me. Since this is what he wants, why not satisfy him? As long as you nod your head, all this will end, as if nothing has happened.

Maybe this is the only way I can do at this moment to repay Ye Yichen.

"Okay, I promise you."

Clouds gathered, and the light tulle-like clouds in the sky began to thicken and darken. Just like my pupil at this time, I also lost all the light, gray and dusty old house for decades. Nothing is empty, and there will never be any dimness like the sun.

Maybe at this time, my heart will struggle and regret, and even the next second will curl up and look at this weakness and incompetence in the mirror with disgust. I can only live by relying on others and can't do anything.

The invisible gravity is accompanied by a buzzing sound, the throat is itchy, and the thoughts are frozen into frost.

I used to think that those past events that he didn't care about, hated, and resentful to completely erase from memory are still regarded as life. It even gets worse and wants to take it for themselves.

I dodged and retreated, but in the end I still approached the towering cliff...

Even if fate wants me to separate from Situ Lei, he tries his best to bind himself to me, even if my heart is no longer here, and his body cannot leave him.
