He is Lovestruck in the Revenge by Gu Nanxi

Chapter 293: 286: I’m kissing you, can you respond to me? Chapter 293: 286: I’m kissing you, can you respond to me? The police car drove away.

Wen Changling stared at the snow on the ground, stained red with blood, lost in thought for a long time. She couldn’t comprehend Jiang Chengxue; she couldn’t grasp his twisted psychology, forcing her to death yet also sacrificing his own life to save her.

“Changling.”

Xie Shang hugged her, his heart still racing, his fingertips trembling.

She slowly calmed down, “How did you find this place?”

“I asked friends at the police station to check the surveillance.”

In the freezing cold, she touched Xie Shang’s palm and found it clammy, realizing that during the several hours she had been out of touch, he must have had a difficult time. She suddenly felt despondent and loathed herself, as it seemed she had always brought only negativity to Xie Shang.

Recently intent on mutual destruction, Crazy Wen finally grew a conscience and apologized in a low voice, filled with guilt and annoyance: “I’m sorry.”

“What?”

“For everything.”

She had been solely focused on revenge, on her own release, keeping secrets from him, ignoring his fear and trepidation.

Xie Shang’s hand around her waist involuntarily tightened, his heart still racing from having regained what he lost, “Do you really feel sorry for me?”

“Yes.”

She looked up, her hair a mess from the embrace, wisps of hair standing out fuzzily in a disheveled yet endearingly submissive manner.

“Then promise me something.”

Xie Shang’s eyes were already red. Half an hour before, he had called He Dongzhou for help, after a frantic and disorganized explanation, he composed himself and made arrangements for the aftermath, knowing that Wen Changling didn’t want to live and had taken the last Hooked Cymbidium from the yard.

While promising to help, He Dongzhou cursed him ferociously for being insane.

He Dongzhou’s words didn’t wake him up; it was holding Wen Changling now that brought him to his senses. No matter if it meant begging or kneeling, he was determined to wear down Wen Changling until she softened for him.

“I’ll arrange for you to see Doctor Tao, okay?”

Wen Changling looked at Xie Shang quietly for a few seconds and nodded.

“Good.”

It seemed that Xie Shang knew all the things she kept hidden, he just never pointed them out, and then indulged her unconditionally.
