“Even though we’ve had our differences and unhappiness, I’ve never once wanted you to die, and I’m sure it’s the same for you.” Shi Guang was trying her best to have her voice sound calm.

Yang Sitong burst out laughing, “Do you know how wretched you look right now?”

Other than the first time they had met, this f*cking b*tch was always especially cocky when they came across one another. Finally, she knows of fear, huh?

At least, her coming to the bridal shop earlier on was not wasted.

“Yang Sitong, I believe that you’re a smart woman and wouldn’t really think of killing me. Lu Yanchen is just right outside. Now that I’ve disappeared for such a long time, he will definitely come looking for me. Even if you were to really kill me, there’s going to be nowhere to run. Your life is really valuable, so why would you want to waste it with me?” Shi Guang’s voice was gentle. “How about this? Maybe you can just pull the knife away a little, and we’ll talk through things properly after?”

She lowered her conditions.

Pausing for a moment, she added on. “I’ll also promise you that I’ll discuss things through with you properly. Let us resolve our differences. I’ll not hold it against you for this knife incident today, and I’ll not let Lu Yanchen make things difficult for you either.”

Yang Sitong’s eyes flickered with a trace of hesitation.

Clearly, she was wavered by Shi Guang’s words as the knife slowly moved away from Shi Guang’s neck gradually.

Shi Guang continued trying her best. “I know that you weren’t the one who had kidnapped my sister, and that those attacks on the internet weren’t because of you. The reason why you made that post was merely to let everyone know that you were really fine, and I believe that you’re innocent, and I’ll not make things difficult for you. Later on, I’ll make a post on Weibo telling everyone that you’re actually a really nice person. So, please don’t do anything foolish. Your mother and brother really care a lot about you!”

The moment Shi Guang mentioned her mother and brother, Yang Sitong’s eyes were filled with an uncontrollable sense of frenzy once more. Her entire body was trembling as her eyes reddened. “They don’t care about me! All of you guys can’t wait for me to be dead! I’m sure you won’t let me off! YOU ALL JUST WANT ME DEAD!”

That knife was kissing Shi Guang’s neck once more.

Shi Guang did not know how she had triggered Yang Sitong—why was she going nuts again?

Was it because of that last sentence?

But, didn’t her mother and brother treat her really well? Had they quarreled?

No, she couldn’t just wait here idly. It was clear that there was a problem with Yang Sitong’s mental state.

“N-Nononono!” Shi Guang denied that immediately. “Yang Sitong, even though you bullied my sister and caused her to be a vegetable and I hate and detest you, I’ve never wanted you dead!”

“I caused your sister to become a vegetable?” Yang Sitong laughed coldly. “The one who had hurt your sister was not me, it was you… Shi Guang! You were the one who caused your sister to turn into a vegetable! What rights do you have to blame me? Not only did you bring harm to your sister, you caused your parent’s death…!”

With that, Yang Sitong burst into a deranged laughter.

She was laughing so wildly that her arms were spreading out slightly, and thus, that knife was quite a distance from Shi Guang’s neck now.

Seizing the opportunity, Shi Guang gripped that hand with the knife swiftly and kicked her.

With the pain, Yang Sitong lost her balance and the knife dropped onto the floor.

Shi Guang then pinned Yang Sitong against the wall before screaming out loudly, “IS ANYBODY THERE? HELP! SOMEBODY, HELP!”

“YOU LIED TO ME! TO THINK THAT YOU WOULD HAVE LIED TO ME AGAIN!” As though she had received an immense blow, Yang Sitong’s fury turned into strength as she mustered everything she had and pushed Shi Guang back!
