Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Showdown

"What makes you think I’ll help you?" Xu Ke’s voice was laced with indescribable sarcasm. Yun Rulan’s tightly clasped hands felt like children’s toys in Xu Ke’s grip, easily freed with a slight exertion.

Yun Rulan clearly didn’t expect Xu Ke to come up with such a question, her expression momentarily stunned. Facing Xu Ke’s mocking gaze from above, Yun Rulan, who was used to ordering Xu Ke around, finally realized something was wrong.

"Xu Ke, why would you say something like that? Aren’t we friends? Isn’t it true that friends should help each other? Besides, don’t you like me? I’ve made up my mind, as long as you help me get through this crisis of the Yun Family, I’ll stay with you and accompany you in whatever you do in the future." As Yun Rulan spoke, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, and she reached out to touch Xu Ke’s fingers.

Xu Ke looked at the woman in front of him, consumed by desire, and let out a cold snort. "I don’t know where you get such confidence, but I’ve never been interested in you from the start, let alone have any fondness for you. Where did you get the confidence to think I would help the Yun Family because of you? It’s ridiculous. If you came here today just to tell me this, you can leave now. Don’t interrupt my time alone with my wife," Xu Ke said with a faint sneer in his voice.

Xu Ke’s words were like a huge slap across Yun Rulan’s face, making her already pale cheeks lose all color, leaving only slightly reddened eyes. "If you’re not interested in me, then why were you so good to me? Why did you always accommodate my requests and bring whatever I wanted to me? I know my attitude towards you wasn’t great before, and sometimes I acted a bit spoiled, but you can’t say such hurtful things to me just because of that.

Feeling wronged, Yun Rulan pursed her lips, tears sliding down her cheeks. The mountain wind stung, but Yun Rulan still stood firmly in place, staring directly into Xu Ke’s eyes.
