Chapter 448

He He wiped her hair with a towel.

She put on a fresh set of clothes.

The smells picked up in the abandoned factory had all slipped away through the sewers.

He He did not look at Ning Chen; instead, she picked up a hairdryer and began drying her hair.

Ning Chen was not in a hurry either.

He simply waited quietly.

Ten minutes passed.

He He finally finished drying her hair.

She casually tossed the towel onto the floor.

Then she lay down on the soft, large bed.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" He He asked.

Ning Chen pondered for a moment, then said gravely, "What did those people ask you?"

He He pouted, then said, "They asked me where you were. I told them I didn't know, and I didn't want to know. They thought I was lying because I know you. After that, they forced me to take drugs. Even within Donghai City, they didn't know your location."

"So they took me to various places, all the places you had ever been. Finally, we went to the orphanage. The director said you had taken Little Jiujiu away, and then I completely lost all leads. After that, I was brought to that dilapidated house."

As He He spoke, she turned her head to look at Ning Chen.

At this moment, Ning Chen's face showed no expression. Having heard He He recount the sequence of events, he merely nodded silently.

Seeing Ning Chen's reaction, He He suddenly burned with rage. She stood up, pointed at Ning Chen, and said, "Do you know! Because of you! What cruel treatment I suffered! How much grievance I endured! I was forced to take drugs, I was beaten! This is all because of you!"

He He shouted and cursed, "If it weren't for you! I should be staying far away from Donghai City right now, not forcibly dragged to this place! Until now, can't you even say sorry? You abandoned me before! Now you have harmed me! You!"

He He was so angry she could barely speak, even feeling a stitch in her side.

Ning Chen looked at He He and said calmly, "This matter indeed affected you because of me. I am sorry. If you wish to seek some compensation for this, just speak up; I will give you whatever you ask."

He He sneered, "Give me everything? I want your life; will you give it to me?"

Ning Chen shook his head, "I still have things to do; I cannot give you my life."

Hearing the answer, He He suddenly burst into laughter. The laughter sounded terrifying, yet also carried a hint of sorrow and desolation.

"I truly hate you!" He He looked at Ning Chen and said angrily.

Her hands clenched tightly, her fingernails nearly digging into her flesh.

He He looked at Ning Chen and said word by word, "I never want to see you again. This is what I want."

Having finished speaking.

He He turned around and was about to walk out of the room.

Ning Chen frowned, quickly stood up, and stepped one foot onto the door.

That immense force prevented He He from opening the door.

He He turned her head to look at Ning Chen, "What else do you want? How long will you continue to torture me?"

Ning Chen said expressionlessly, "You should go to a drug rehabilitation center."

"I won't go!" He He nearly shouted.

"You have taken drugs; I cannot leave you unattended. If the withdrawal hits, you will definitely lose control of yourself. If this continues, you will become a useless person, heading toward death." Ning Chen spoke with grave concern.

"What does that have to do with you? Before, between you and me, there are no more ties!" He He shouted at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen merely shook his head, "Indeed, it was because of me that you were harmed, made to endure everything you should not have had to endure. Therefore, for this period of time, just consider yourself my compensation."

Hearing Ning Chen's words, He He remained silent for a long time, then said, "I truly, truly hate you."

"I don't even know your name, I don't even know where you live. I originally thought you would treat me well, but what I got in return was deception!" He He looked at Ning Chen; the angry expression on her face vanished, replaced by tears streaming down like pear blossoms in the rain.

He He, who had always been strong-willed, a powerful woman, with the state of mind of a free person.

At this very moment.

Before Ning Chen, this heartless man, the person she hated most.

She.

Cried.

She cried very loudly.

Sobbing without end.

He He, throughout her entire life.

Could not even see clearly herself.

Her father loved gambling and drugs.

Her mother was even more of a foolish person.

After experiencing that incident.

Her mother was gone.

Her father had just passed away as well.

The only half-relative she had.

Was a little girl named Zhang Xiao.

But she did not feel the love of family toward Zhang Xiao.

Instead, it was a hidden hatred.

She attributed all the things that had happened before to Zhang Xiao.

It was Zhang Xiao who caused her family to be destroyed and scattered.

Homeless and displaced.

But later.

While she was rushing about everywhere.

She finally understood.

All of this was not her fault.

But it was already too late.

Hearing He He had once secretly returned to Donghai City.

She came to the orphanage.

She wanted to find Zhang Xiao and go out and have fun together.

But.

Zhang Xiao had been taken away by Did Ning Chen.

There had been no news ever since.

Hearing He He remembered again.

The moment she boarded Did Ning Chen's RV.

Did Ning Chen at that time.

Was humorous and witty.

His attitude toward her, though not exactly warm, was not bad either.

At that moment.

Hearing He He truly felt a bit of her heart stir.

A life originally planned to wander everywhere.

Suddenly found an island that belonged only to her.

She suddenly felt.

Perhaps she did not need to be so tired.

Finding someone properly, getting married and having children, was not bad either.

But afterwards.

She discovered that she was merely a tool Did Ning Chen used to get close to his sister.

Just as usual, she was abandoned again.

But this abandonment was different from before.

This time, Hearing He He had truly fallen for Did Ning Chen.

But what was the result?

Men are all the same.

When she was abandoned by Did Ning Chen.
