271 IT'S SUFFOCATING

"Don't look at me."

Teng Man Rui turned to lie on her side, back against Zhu Li Qiang and covered herself up with the blanket. She curled into a ball under it.

"Man Rui, don't be like this, please." Zhu Li Qiang pitifully begged.

"You're the last person I want to see." She retorted ruthlessly.

'You're the last person I would want to see me in this pitiable state.' She added in her mind as she pursed her lips together in a line.

"Don't you think it's so unfair? I saved you…" Zhu Li Qiang's whole visage reflected hurt and pain.

"Well, you shouldn't have. Don't you get it? I want to die." She was full of angst.

"Man Rui…"

Zhu Li Qiang was standing at the doorway of the room where Teng Man Rui was staying. They were still situated in his penthouse.

The lady had recovered her voice and had been recuperating well, except that her mood had not improved even in the slightest.
