Part Two: East Land's Great Sugar, Chapter 250: Tingtin

developed can be entered simultaneously."He went in to protect her, to be able to pull her out in a pinch, he couldn't bear the thought of her being too heartbroken inside.Shu Tinglan knew the ins and...The disparity in strength between the man and woman left her pinned down, unable to move. Her hands flailed wildly, reaching for the wall lamp on the bedside table. The warm yellow light illuminated the man above her, his eyes gleaming with ferocity and ruthlessness.

"Zhao Tingxing, let go of me." Her shoulder was about to be crushed by the pain, she should have changed the home password.

He didn't let go, but he also made no further move, growling in a low voice, "Is it amusing to insult me with money"

He Zhao Tingxing would rather beg than take a single penny from her.

Han Li endured the pain, his chest rising and falling with both tension and agony as his thoughts gradually calmed.

“If you look down on my money, then give it back to me now.” She didn't want to, nor did she need to, say anything nice to him.

In the face of reality, dignity is nothing, Han Li believed he understood this.

Zhao Tingxing's grip on her shoulder, which had already eased, tightened again at her words. His eyes were dark and menacing in the dim light.

She frowned and let out a soft groan of pain, still saying, "What Can't you afford it If you can't afford it, just put away your ridiculous pride."

Self-esteem

Zhao Tingxing considered himself to have never had this kind of thing. From being a wolf child to growing up, from poverty to wealth, the concept of self-esteem had long been discarded by him. Not only was it thrown away, but he also stomped on it.

He thought he had long gotten rid of this feeling, but when he learned that the money came from her, in that moment, he still lost his rationality. His heart was surging with all sorts of inexplicable and complex emotions. It was the humiliation of his dignity being trampled upon, the loss of a man's face, and even an impulse to fly from Southwest to Senzhou, just to prove himself.

Proof of what

Can you prove you can drive her wild in bed

Zhaoting, you're so damn incompetent!

He sat slumped on the edge of her bed, his hand that had been gripping her shoulder slackened. He stared at his feet.

Han Li lay behind him, watching his tall figure being devoured bit by bit by the dim light, gradually becoming blurred and indistinct, looking lonely and desperate.

After a long time, Zhao Tingxing finally spoke, "Thank you for your generosity. I will return it to you as soon as possible."

His rare calmness, he rarely uttered a human word.

Ke Hanli listened, but it wasn't pleasant. At that moment, the tall figure was not only being devoured by the light, but it seemed as though its bones had been broken, collapsing inch by inch until it fell to the ground and became a pile of fragments.

Hàn Lì just felt that the man who was like a mountain in her heart suddenly collapsed before her.

"Zhao Tingxing, it's not..." She reached out to hug him from behind, wanting to pick up those shattered pieces. She gave him money, or the things she said just now that were meant to provoke him, she didn't mean to hurt him, she just wanted him to face reality, or maybe she just wanted to help him.

He she knows would never be defeated by a few words, he would only become more courageous in the face of adversity.

However, she didn't know that some people, while appearing strong and unshakeable on the surface, are actually under immense internal pressure, easily crushed by even the slightest setback.

She reached out to hug him, but she only embraced empty air.

Zhao Tingxing had already stood up and left, silently and soundlessly, just as he had suddenly appeared a moment ago.

This night was like a dream, she suspected it was just a dream of hers.

In the following days, the broker made appointments for people to view the house frequently. As she was busy with work, she simply had her assistant handle communication with the broker. Many people came to view the house, but few could afford to pay in full immediately. Since it was an urgent sale and she needed cash quickly, clients who required financing were not ideal as their process took too long. Therefore, she didn't sell it right away.

While busy with his own work, he also kept a close eye on the stock price of the Senbing Group and Zhao's movements.

After the stock price of Senbing Group fell to a certain extent, although it was still falling, the speed became slow. This should be Gu Ruandong's suggestion.

Even so, Zhao Tingxing's holdings had depreciated to the point where he could no longer repay his loans. Negative news about the Zhao family emerged one after another. Even if Han Li sold her house and helped him pay back the bank interest, it wouldn't make a difference. Besides, there were no suitable buyers, so the matter was left unresolved.

Zhao Tingxing hasn't been seen since he left her place that night. Even when she contacted Zhao Shi's CFO and others, they all said they hadn't seen him.

If this were any other time, Han Li would have thought he was just holding back another big move. But this time, she felt a sense of unease in her heart, especially after that night when he seemed to have suddenly lost his fighting spirit.

Han Li knew she shouldn't meddle in Zhao Ting Xing's affairs anymore. From now on, she would walk her sunny path, and he would cross his solitary bridge. However, she couldn't bear to watch him struggle and do nothing.

She is two-faced and completely different from what she initially thought.

Knowing Gu Ruandong would be impossible to persuade, there was no chance. Gu Ruandong was a man of strong will and not one who valued face, so Han Li decided to talk to Lu Yaoyao instead.

Lu Yaoyao received Han Li's call and readily agreed to meet. Before, when Dafang and Gu Ruandong were unreachable in the southwest, she reached out to Han Li, who didn't hesitate at all and went straight to the southwest. Therefore, Lu Yaoyao had always remembered this kindness.

Han Li looked at her sincerity and felt sorry and ashamed. Compared to her, he seemed to be an extremely worldly person.

"I'm sorry to bother you," she said.

"It's fine, I'm not busy lately and I'm bored." Yao Yao was telling the truth. Her movie had been put on hold due to the earthquake in the county and her amnesia. The crew was now rebuilding the set and waiting to film the remaining scenes. It was a downtime period for her.

Han Li didn't beat around the bush. She told Zhao Tingxing and Lu Yaoyao about his current situation.

She had expected that she wouldn't come uninvited, it must be about Zhao Tingxing. While Zhao Tingxing had kidnapped her before, he hadn't caused any real harm. Furthermore, the old lady had always been very kind to her, so she didn't harbor any hatred towards him. She simply stated, "I'm sorry, I probably can't help. I'm not comfortable interfering in Gu Ruandong's business affairs."

Of course, if she spoke up, Gu Ruandong would listen no matter how difficult it was. It was precisely because of this that she was more cautious. Even for the Lu family's sake, she had never asked Gu Ruandong for anything.

She refused very clearly, without beating around the bush or giving the other party any fantasies. It seemed a bit impersonal, but it was actually the best way to handle it, as it didn't waste either of their time.

Hanli expressed understanding. She wasn't someone who would be persistent, and she hadn't come today with high hopes. She just thought, what if Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, she was willing to try. Perhaps she had been too presumptuous. Worrying only made things worse.

The two of them weren't familiar with each other, and their only common topic was Zhao Tingxing and Gu Ruandong. But these two men were obviously not suitable for casual conversation.

So the conversation changed, and they started talking about the old woman.

Before this, Yaoyao didn't know about the old woman's death because she had been absent due to the earthquake. She was injured herself and subsequently suffered from amnesia. As she had no contact with the old woman, no one bothered to tell her about it.ou might as well see where this program is being used."
