Chương 187: Confrontation (Part 2)

Ye Jie bit his own tongue at the realization of what he just said. He opened his mouth to say something but Ru raised her hand to stop him.

"In the past 26 years of my life, I've been called monster plenty of times. And I didn't mind it. Even your wife called me a monster when we met. But you!" Ru gave a despondent look to Ye Jie and added, "You're the only person in my life who never called me a monster... Until today."

"Ru, that's not what I meant. Hear me out!" Ye Jie took a step towards her beseeching her. He didn't mean it like that. He was angry at the fact that she so easily asked Xu Mey to kill someone even when Xu Mey already is living through her guilt of killing someone when she was young.

"Stay right where you are!" Ye Jie froze at his spot. "Today, you proved that when it comes to friends and girls, people always choose the girl. And it's a pity that you just called me a monster for the girl you love."
