Song Yurou shook her head violently, looking at Mo Chen with a horrified expression.
She couldn't back out or leave; she was tied to the chair, completely at the mercy of others.
She truly regrets it now! Why did she have to provoke Mo Chen?
He once thought he was a sycophant, but he never imagined that this sycophant would take his life. Such a crazy and obsessive person is simply a devil.
If Mo Chen knew that he had bullied him, wouldn't he be...?
Thinking of this, Song Yurou became even more terrified; she had never faced death so directly before.
"Huh? You only say yes if I make you happy? Then you're not being sincere at all." Mo Chen seemed completely dissatisfied with Song Yurou's words. A strange look flickered across his face.
He gently moved the gun away and picked up a handkerchief, as if wiping his beloved possession. "My darling won't allow it; it really wants to pull the trigger and let everything inside it come out and show itself."
Song Yurou is almost driven mad. Is Mo Chen a lunatic?
What would it take to satisfy him? She was almost in tears.
"Mo Chen, I'm sincere. I really will never leave you in this lifetime. I swear, if I ever leave you, may I be struck by lightning. I will never leave you in this lifetime, Mo Chen, you have to believe me." She no longer cared about saving face; now she only wanted to control her own life.
First, she needs to calm down Mo Chen, this madman. If she accidentally gets shot, she'll really have nothing left.
She needs to appease Mo Chen, this madman, until she's free from his threat. Then she can run away and leave Mo Chen behind.
Now, she would tell Mo Chen Mo Chen he wanted, and appeasing Mo Chen was the most important thing.
She forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Mo Chen, you're truly the only one in my heart. What I said at the meeting was just to use Jiang Xun to spite Song Shiwei. How could someone as gentle as you possibly like that Jiang Xun?"
"If you're worried, I can prove it to you; I can marry you."
Song Yurou spoke loudly, her face radiating sincerity and a will to survive.
This feeling is really exciting.
Looking at Song Yurou's expression, Mo Chen thought to himself, "She's already been frightened enough; I can't frighten her any further."
If you get scared out of your wits, how will you ever find thrills again?
"Of course I believe you. Tomorrow, let's get married, okay?" Mo Chen squatted down, gently cupped Song Yurou's face in his hands, and regained his gentle expression.
She looked like a living Buddha right now; if it weren't for that gun pointed at her head, she would probably be very happy.
"Okay, we'll get married tomorrow. We'll be together forever, Mo Chen, you believe me." Song Shiwei looked weak and clung to Mo Chen.
"Mo Chen, please release the gun quickly, I'm scared," Song Yurou said softly, afraid of angering Mo Chen.
Mo Chen smiled slightly, about to move the pistol away, but then seemed to suddenly remember something, and pressed the cold gun against his head again. "Yurou, you've passed my test, but now I suddenly remembered something. I heard that the bullying I suffered as a child was orchestrated by your people. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Song Yurou felt a chill run down her spine, her mind a jumbled mess, and she seemed to forget how to think.
Mo Chen's gun was still pressed against her forehead. Song Yurou was terrified. Taking a step back meant falling off a precipice, while taking a step forward meant certain death. This was probably what they meant by that.
She was filled with regret. Why did she have to provoke that madman Mo Chen?
She thought she could completely outmaneuver this madman, little did she know that this madman was the one nearly driving her to her death.
She is truly on the verge of death.
How should she answer to avoid trouble?
Her supposedly brilliant mind was now a complete mess.
A rather terrifying thought popped into her mind: why had she impulsively saved Mo Chen out of a moment of kindness?
She should have just left him to fend for himself by the roadside; now she wouldn't be in such a passive position.
"Yurou, is this a difficult question to answer? Or are you really the mastermind behind the bullying of me, just like they say?"
Mo Chen's eyes were fixed on Song Yurou. She could even feel his hand gradually tightening, as if he would pull the trigger with all his might and shoot her in the head at any moment.
Song Yurou panicked, crying as she said, "It wasn't me, Mo Chen. I was the one who saved you back then. How could I possibly bully you? I've never done anything like that before."
Song Yurou knew she absolutely could not admit that she had bullied Mo Chen.
She knew why she was still alive, and she also knew what her fate would be once she lost her status as Mo Chen's benefactor.
When Mo Chen goes crazy, he never talks about being afraid of the law or responsibility.
Mo Chen, all alone, has probably long since disregarded life and death.
He's still alive in this world only to enjoy the pleasure of tormenting others.
But she's different; she's the female protagonist of this world, and she has a bright future ahead of her to squander and enjoy.
She can't just die like this, without any explanation, and she certainly can't die under that bastard Mo Chen's gun without any explanation.
Mo Chen is only suspecting me now, and probably has no evidence. As long as I deny it, what can Mo Chen do to me?
If she were to admit it, she would be incredibly stupid; wouldn't that be like walking into a trap and courting death?
