Chapter 685 - 672
Watching Le Zhengsheng dig down, Tang Yueze was stunned and nodded, "Oh."
The two men together were determined to dig open this tomb!
Le Zhengsheng paused, stopping. Tang Yueze looked at him, "Are we there?"
"Yeah." Le Zhengsheng nodded, squatted down, and used his hand to clear away the loose layer of soil above, revealing the stone slab underneath, "It’s just below here."
Tang Yueze’s expression was serious, "Young Master..."
"Hmph!" Le Zhengsheng curled his lip, using the shovel to pry open one end of the stone slab, "Don’t show that expression yet, we still don’t know the actual facts!"
Tang Yueze held his breath, not daring to move.
Le Zhengsheng exerted a strong force, prying open the stone slab! Tang Yueze was so tense he even turned his gaze away.
"Hey!" Le Zhengsheng laughed, looking up at Tang Yueze, "Come on! Take a look? It’s really spectacular!"
"What?" Tang Yueze looked over slowly with suspicion.
What he saw left him utterly speechless!
"This, this..."
"Hmph!" Le Zhengsheng sneered, "That old witch Helian Shuang, what is she playing at? An entirely empty tomb? This is... interesting!"
Tang Yueze was also at a loss for words, why on earth would Helian Shuang do this?
"Alright then!" Le Zhengsheng clapped his hands, "Let’s bury this back! I need to hurry back and tell Wanwan."
Tang Yueze glanced at him, full of admiration, "Young Master Le Zheng, you..."
"What?" Le Zhengsheng glared at him, "Hurry up! An empty tomb, just thinking about it makes your hair stand on end!"
Tang Yueze shook his head and chuckled, "Okay."
He’s truly a man, the young master is not wronged to have such a rival.
...
At home, Yu Sangwan was looking at her phone, not knowing what to do.
When she waited for his call, he never called. Now that she didn’t want it, he wouldn’t stop calling. Yu Sangwan thought about turning off her phone, but then a message popped up.
"Wanwan, is your phone not with you? When you see the message, give me a call back."
Yu Sangwan didn’t respond for a long while.
Another message came in from Helian Si.
"Wanwan, are you angry? I’m sorry, it’s my fault... I didn’t contact you in time, but don’t let your imagination run wild, give me a call and I’ll explain, okay?"
"..." Yu Sangwan looked at every word, her heart full of bitterness, what should she do? She had made a mistake!
Thinking it over, she decided to call Helian Si back. Keeping someone hanging was not her style.
As soon as the call connected, Helian Si’s voice came eagerly through, obviously he had been by the phone all this time. "Wanwan, you finally got back to me! Are you angry?"
"... No." Yu Sangwan choked up, not knowing how to begin.
"If you’re angry, be angry, you’re a woman, you have the right to be angry. About my sister, don’t worry... whether she agrees or not, it won’t affect us."
Listening to Helian Si’s voice, Yu Sangwan felt even more choked up, she opened her mouth, "A Si, let’s... just let it go."
"..."
Helian Si was silent for a moment, as if he hadn’t heard, "What did you say?"
"I said, let’s just let it go." Yu Sangwan steadied her heart, took a deep breath, and got all the words out, "We shouldn’t continue, I don’t think we’re a good match, someone like you, even just your status, I can’t match up to..."
"Yu Sangwan!"
Helian Si couldn’t listen any longer, he interrupted her sharply, "Do you know what you’re saying? Are you not taking responsibility for your words?"
"..." Yu Sangwan felt a piercing pain in her heart, "I am responsible, I want to break up with you!"
"Shut up!" Helian Si shouted, "Take it back! I want you to take it back! You can’t say you’re breaking up!"
After a pause, he adjusted his breathing, speaking as calmly as possible, "I know it’s my sister’s fault, and I didn’t handle it well... but didn’t you promise me that no matter how tough it gets, you wouldn’t give up?"
"No, I regret it!" Yu Sangwan shouted hoarsely, "I just want someone to depend on, but if it’s this exhausting, I don’t want it... I can’t do it! It’s too hard."
"..."
Helian Si was silent for a long time, the phone was quiet for a while. Yu Sangwan looked at her phone, almost thinking he was no longer there.
But then, Helian Si spoke again, "Are you serious? Is this all the feeling you have for me? My sister just opposed us once, and you’re... backing out?"
"... Yeah." Yu Sangwan closed her eyes, her tears falling. It wasn’t Jinxuan, she couldn’t accept it!
"Let’s break up!" Yu Sangwan clenched her fist, why did it hurt so much? No, this isn’t right. Aside from Jinxuan, how could she feel heartache for another man? This was betrayal!
This time, Helian Si’s silence lasted even longer.
After a long while, he finally spoke, "Okay."
On the phone, there was a faint ’click’ sound, Helian Si had ended the call, they... were over.
Yu Sangwan slowly put down the phone, staring blankly. Suddenly, she covered her mouth, crying uncontrollably!
The door banged open with a thud, Le Zhengsheng came in panting, walking straight to the bed, kneeling on one knee in front of her. Seeing her cry like this, still not knowing what happened, he smiled and said, "Alright, stop crying! I have good news to tell you."
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan cried until her eyes could barely open.
Le Zhengsheng tugged at the corner of his mouth, slowly speaking, "Helian Shuang lied to you! Helian Si is actually Lu Jinxuan! The grave she took you to, I dug it up, and it’s empty!"
"..."
Yu Sangwan froze, stunned into inaction. What? Could it really be like this! But, but she...
Thinking about just breaking up with Helian Si, Yu Sangwan cried even harder, "Wu wu..."
"This..." Le Zhengsheng was dumbfounded, not knowing what to do, "What’s wrong? Why are you still crying? I proved to you Jinxuan is alive, that old witch Helian Shuang... she was just playing tricks, who knows what she’s up to."
"But, but I..."
Yu Sangwan stared at her phone, "What do I do? I just rejected A Si."
"Ah?" Le Zhengsheng was startled, "You... were so quick about it? Didn’t I tell you, I have your back?"
"Then, now..."
"Go find him quickly!"
Yu Sangwan hurriedly picked up her phone to call Helian Si, but... his phone was turned off!
"It’s off."
Le Zhengsheng furrowed his brows, "Then go to Guan Chao quickly, can’t you get in easily? You can’t delay on matters like this, go quickly!"
"Mm!" Yu Sangwan nodded, quickly standing up.
She ran forward a couple of steps, suddenly turned back, looking at Le Zhengsheng.
Le Zhengsheng looked at her blankly, "What is it?"
"A-Sheng." Yu Sangwan came back, raising her hand, and embraced Le Zhengsheng, "Thank you."
"Silly." Le Zhengsheng rubbed her head, "Hurry up and go!"
"Mm!"
Yu Sangwan ran out, Le Zhengsheng lifted his right hand that had been behind his back. When digging earlier, the skin between his thumb and index finger was accidentally scraped, bleeding... But, the person who would bandage his wound, he had let her go.
He let her go find the person she loves...
