"Nonsense!" Flared Shu Tian, hugging her head with both hands and shaking her head incessantly.
The tears in her eyes fell on the ground, and soon dried up.
"You know best if I was talking nonsense. You seem overwhelmed. How are you going to face it when
the court is really in session?"
The man's voice sounded like a spell lingering in her ears.
His words were like a dagger stabbing in her chest. She was too intimidated to face it. She had never
thought of such a result. It was too cruel for her.
Although she didn't believe it, she couldn't help but recall the ambiguous answer Li Han gave her when
she asked him about the progress of the case. He had never told her the truth, and she believed him
foolishly. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Shu Tian cried while laughing. She was on the verge of losing control. She gave all her trust and
courage to this man, but she ended up like this.
He was not to blame for his cruelty. She was too stupid to throw herself into a trap, to the extent that
she sat in this room and imagined that he would take her home as he told her.
"He promised me..." Shu Tian sobbed, holding back her tears.
All she got was silence, which made her feel cold and sarcastic.
She found it hard to believe that Li Han promised her in front of her but went back on his words behind
her.
Meng Shichuan was vexed, seeing her crying her eyes out. He wondered how much she loved that
man.
He had never, nor did he want to be loved like this, but when he saw Shu Tian was devastated
because of Li Han, he felt a little envious.
Originally out of gratitude for saving his life, he now found that his feelings for her changed. His heart
ached for her when he saw her crying. Knowing that her case was not going well, he was worried and a
little glad that he had another reason to take her away.
"Leave. Why don't you let it go?" Meng Shichuan said.
Shu Tian slowly closed her eyes and said, "Leave? If you're really doing it for my own good, print out
the document and give me a copy."
Meng Shichuan knew what she wanted to do and nodded. "Okay."
"Why do you want to take me away so badly? Is it because I saved your life, or is it because you like to
impose?" There was a deep nasal sound in her voice, and even this rude remark failed to anger him.
Meng Shichuan took out the handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. "You don't believe me?"
He asked.
"Why should I trust you?"
Meng Shichuan, who was lost for words for a moment, looked at her pale face and said after two
seconds, "I just don't want to see you suffer like this."
Hearing this, Shu Tian opened her eyes. The incandescent light above her head dazzled her eyes. She
said, forcing a smile, "Thank you for your kindness."
The only hope left in Meng Shichuan's eyes faded. She did not believe him no matter what he said.
He felt awful. He wouldn't take it to heart if she was someone else. But she was Shu Tian, and his heart
didn't allow him to let it go.
Given that Shu Tian was very emotional, Meng Shichuan wanted to leave after she calmed down a
little, but his existence worsened the situation. He had no choice but to tell the police to take good care
of her and leave.
The lights in Shu Tian's room were on all night. She read the printed electronic documents over and
over again all night.
Only by confirming every word over and over again could she believe that what Meng Shichuan said
was true. Li Han had made the choice of pleading guilty without her knowing it.
She stared at the final signature and imagined the look on his face when he signed it. Was he guilty,
sad, or helpless? Or maybe he was calm.
But it had nothing to do with her anymore. She was the one who was given up, and she didn't deserve
a reason.
[...]
Li Han received a call from the police station at around nine in the morning. He didn't sleep until three
in the morning last night. He was exhausted to the extreme, but he woke up as soon as he got the call.
"Mr. Li, Miss Shu has something to talk to you about. Please come over."
Hearing this, Li Han frowned. Usually, Shu Tian would call him directly if she had something to talk to
him and she had never asked anyone else to do it for her.
He asked, his heart sinking, "Where is she?"
"Oh, Mr. Li, don't worry. Miss Shu is fine."
The answer did not reassure Li Han completely. Instead, he had a bad feeling. He knew Shu Tian too
well. There was a tacit understanding between the two of them. She must have done this for a reason.
What could make her unwilling to call him herself?
Li Han drove nervously all the way to the police station. The car was parked in the courtyard. As soon
as the engine was turned off, he hurried in and walked straight to Shu Tian's room.
The door opened, showing a woman, lifeless.
Li Han had never seen her like this before, even when she was brought to the police station earlier. If
there was a word to describe her situation, it would be hopeless.
He frowned, thinking that something was wrong with her. He walked over nervously and asked, "What's
wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to put it on her forehead, trying to see if she had a fever. But before he
could touch her forehead, she suddenly shrank back and dodged.
Li Han's raised hand froze in midair.
Shu Tian took the two printed papers from the drawer to the table without looking at him. "Sit down. I
have something to talk to you about."
Her pale face worried Li Han so much that he asked with great concern, "Tell me what's going on with
you first."
The faint odor of him came to her. Shu Tian finally lifted her eyes. She used to love thje odor, but now
she felt cold and heartless.
She raised her head slightly and looked at him, deep in thought.
Just as Li Han was about to ask, Shu Tian suddenly reached out to wrap her arms around his neck and
pulled him over, raising her face to kiss him.
She closed her eyes, tears spilling from the corner of her eyes. Her cold lips moved slowly against his.
Li Han sensed the awkwardness in her posture and leaned forward cooperatively, raising her chin with
one hand to deepen the kiss, but at this moment...
Shu Tian clenched her teeth and pushed the man in front of her away. She asked, and her big wet eyes
were full of mockery, "Li Han, I'm curious. What were you thinking when you kissed me?"
