Chapter 233 Metamorphosis
Fu Shenyan picked up a cigarette from the table, lit it, and took a few deep puffs. In the smoke, his face became flickering and increasingly blurred.
"Now that we've come to this, I might as well tell you one more thing. Remember that perverted old man? I carefully selected him for you, too. Even the medicine he took was arranged by me."
Zhou Yian’s eyes widened instantly, he even held his breath, and looked at Fu Shenyan in disbelief.
"You really didn't disappoint me that time. I didn't expect you to be willing to sacrifice your life for your own innocence. It's a pity that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole behind it gets the advantage, and that kid Xu Zehao gets the advantage."
Zhou Yian gradually collapsed. "So you were behind this too? What about Manager Gao... Manager Gao? She knew all this, didn't she? Tell me."
Fu Shenyan looked at her, took another puff of his cigarette nonchalantly, and said lightly: "Yes, she knows everything."
"To put it bluntly, everything you've been through is a game."
Zhou Yian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. At this moment, her world collapsed. She covered her chest tightly with both hands and whimpered in pain, "Fu Shenyan, you..."
"You...you are a beast. You will not die well."
Fu Shenyan looked at her painful and resentful expression with disapproval, and sneered: "It's a pity that God is blind. Good people don't live long, and evil will last for thousands of years. People like me are living well, while good people like you are living like an ant, being trampled on by others."
"An An, remember that in this world, the strong have the final say. You'd better listen to me. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to make your life difficult, and also make his life... difficult."
Fu Shenyan turned around, took out another file bag from the drawer, and threw it in front of Zhou Yian.
"There's a secret here, a shocking secret. Do you want to see it?"
Driven by curiosity, Zhou Yian reached out to take the folder with trembling hands. She opened the seal, but hesitated at the moment of taking out the document, and ultimately did not take out the contents.
She didn't dare to think about how many things Fu Shenyan was hiding from her, and how many false accusations Xu Zehao had suffered for him.
After going through so much hardship, she finally had a moment of happiness and stability, but she was unwilling to accept that all this was like a fleeting bubble.
She didn't dare to look. She wanted to escape reality and deceive herself into thinking that as long as she didn't look, didn't think, and didn't know, everything would not exist.
Thinking of this, she threw the document bag in her hand to the ground like a hot potato.
Fu Shenyan was not satisfied with her reaction. He looked at her with cruel eyes, "Why don't you look? You don't dare to look, right? You're afraid that the more you know, the worse it will make you feel, right?"
Zhou Yian was silent in pain, as he had guessed what she was thinking.
Fu Shenyan looked at Zhou Yian quietly, his eyes becoming increasingly cold and ruthless.
"Yian, I've discovered that pushing someone into the abyss and watching them struggle and unable to get up is far less interesting than lifting them up to a high place and then letting them fall. That look of despair, unwillingness, anger, yet powerlessness is truly beautiful."
Zhou Yian suppressed his inner anger and said softly, "Fu Shenyan, you are a lunatic, a mentally twisted pervert."
Fu Shenyan curled his lips in disdain and sneered, "Yes, I am a lunatic, a pervert, but no matter how crazy I am, I have always been sincere to you, do you know? I also thought about silently protecting you like that, until one day you will be moved by my sincerity and fall in love with me. It was you who made me realize that sincerity cannot be exchanged for true love, and it was you who made me crazy so thoroughly."
"I once risked my life to save you. Why can't you fall in love with me? Is his life more valuable than mine?"
Finally, Zhou Yian could no longer suppress her anger. She roared hysterically, "Fu Shenyan, you are just making excuses for yourself. You pushed me into the abyss, watched me struggle and suffer, and then pretended to lend me a helping hand, making me trust you and rely on you. This was all a carefully planned scam."
"Fu Shenyan, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have gone through all that. It's you, you ruined me."
"All this misfortune is because of you. Why do you want to put it all on me? What do you want to do?"
Zhou Yian looked at Fu Shenyan in despair and asked tearfully, "Fu Shenyan, what should I do now? How can I face Xu Zehao? You've already ruined me, and you're going to ruin him too, right?"
"An An, whether to destroy him or save him, it's actually up to you."
Fu Shenyan smiled unmoved, then suddenly leaned close to Zhou Yian and whispered the cruelest words in her ear in the gentlest tone, "An'an, yes, I am a lunatic and a devil, so let's go to hell together. It's scary, isn't it? What's even scarier is that I discovered... I really fell in love with you."
"You love him, right? So, you know what you have to do, right?"
"Break up with him, and then be with me. I promise that none of this will be leaked."
"This way, his life won't change. He can continue to be the eldest son of the Xu Group. And you, follow me. What he can give you, I can give you too. This will be good for you, me, and him, isn't it?"
Fu Shenyan spoke these words in a low voice, enunciating each word. He was as terrifying as a messenger from hell, determined to drag Zhou Yian into the abyss of no return.
Zhou Yian was completely desperate. She looked at Fu Shenyan in horror. The unprecedented pain spread from her heart to every part of her body. Even breathing was as painful as being pricked by needles.
"Fu Shenyan, can you please let me go? I beg you."
Zhou Yian couldn't hold on any longer. She collapsed weakly on the ground, stretched out her hands tremblingly, held Fu Shenyan's hands tightly, and begged bitterly.
Fu Shenyan looked down at her from above, the coldness in his eyes not fading at all despite her pleading. "Zhou Yian, it's not me who won't let you go, it's you who won't let you go. You have a choice, but I don't."
Zhou Yian looked at him, let go of his hand in despair, lowered his head and shed tears silently.
He slowly squatted down, gently held her face with both hands, wiped her tears gently with the pads of his thumbs, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't cry, it won't look good if your eyes are swollen from crying. It will hurt me."
To an uninformed person, this scene looks like a man coaxing his beloved woman.
Fu Shenyan's cell phone suddenly rang at this moment. He stood up and walked aside to answer the call, then walked over and stuffed the file bag that Zhou Yian had not opened just now into her arms.
"If you can't make up your mind, take a look at this, maybe it can help you make up your mind."
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I look forward to your reply."
After Fu Shenyan finished speaking, he stood up and left the box without looking back.
Zhou Yian stared blankly at the file bag with his head down, and finally took out the contents to look at them.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yian came out of the club like a zombie. Her head and heart ached.
She looked at the hanging gold-plated sign with empty eyes. The hollow part was still as black as a huge mouth of the abyss that wanted to swallow people. It turned out that nothing had changed.
She walked to the bus stop and sat down, finally unable to hold back her tears and covering her face.
