Chapter 104: Begging for Mercy_1

Gu Xi thought about how, just before this, she had issued a harsh warning to Huo Zhanting and An Lan, and she nearly passed out from holding her breath. She despised Xiao Yihe deeply, and she feared Huo Zhanting's ruthless methods.

The way Gu Xi had just been praising Xiao Yihe changed in an instant. She rushed forward wanting to grab Huo Zhanting's hand, only to have him dodge it.

Huo Zhanting's eyes were devoid of any emotion as he looked at Gu Xi.

His icy gaze made Gu Xi shiver uncontrollably.

"Zhan Ting, the things I just said, they weren't what I really meant, you know that. You're the only one in my heart, I came back to the country for you, and the reason I'm beneath Xiao Yihe is because I had no choice, it was all his coercion. I have no power or influence, I can't fight against him, you have to believe me," she pleaded.

Gu Xi cried pitifully, her tears flowing like a delicate pear blossom in the rain.
