Chapter 146: There Will Be New Beginnings in Life

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She hugged the small bundle tightly against her chest and buried her face in it. This would be the last time she cried for him. The final time. From now on, she would forget that a man named ‘Chu Lui’—the boy who had given her the amulet—had appeared in her life.

Tears flowed continuously from her eyes and disappeared in the small bundle. Tomorrow, she would leave tomorrow.

In Chu Enterprise...

Du Jingtang barged into Chu Lui’s office, steaming. He kicked the door open, finding it too obstructing.

Chu Lui gave him a cold stare while he remained seated in his leather-made CEO chair. There was a huge footprint on his office door.

“Du Jingtang, I can chop off your foot if you don’t want it,” Chu Lui replied in indifference. Du Jingtang took a deep breath before approaching and braced his hands on Chu Lui’s table.

“Cousin, why are you doing this? Are you cold-blooded? Haven’t you had enough torturing her?” His chest rose and fell as though he was trying to suppress himself.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Chu Lui’s eyes never left the documents that he was perusing. His voice remained cold and emotionless; it might have been his nature.

“Cousin, surely you don’t have to be this ruthless. She has nothing now; even the Xia family has cast her out. Have you thought of it? She is all alone out there, trying to survive. You, on the other hand, are not leaving her with any employment opportunities. Nobody will employ her. Cousin, do you really want her dead?”

Du Jingtang’s voice grew louder as Chu Lui’s face became colder. He looked up and smiled thinly. “This is me. I thought you knew me.”

Du Jingtang reached out and made a fist with his hand in mid-air.

“Chu Lui, I look forward to the day when you will regret this. And...” He stood up abruptly and straightened himself as he called Chu Lui by his full name. This man was no longer his cousin.

He made his way to the door and then threw his resignation letter. “I quit. I don’t want to be your cousin, you heartless man.”

He strode out, no longer able to stay in this place. He wasn’t in love with Xia Ruoxin, but he was truly disappointed with this cousin of his.

That woman had no chance of survival if he behaved in such a ruthless manner.

She had nothing; no heart, love, or husband. Not even a home. All she had was her life, and he wasn’t willing to grant her that?

“AHH!” He quit. He would stay at home and keep his mother company. It wasn’t that his family was lacking financially. He chose to work in the Chu Enterprise because he was bored. Since he could not agree with his cousin, he might as well quit to save himself the agony.

Chu Lui’s expression was hard as he allowed his whole body to sink into his pure leather chair, with his hand on his forehead. A strange thoughtful look was in his eyes.

He thought that woman would return to beg him to let her off. Apparently, it was the first time he was wrong. From that day on, Xia Ruoxin seemed to vanish from the face of the earth; never to be found or heard. No one knew where she disappeared to. It would be a few years later when they would meet again.

A soft knock echoed in the middle of the night. A woman kept blowing hot air into her hands. The door opened not long after, and a middle-aged woman emerged.
