Chapter 437 - This was Not Payback (2/2)

”Lui…” Li Manni's eyes widened in belief at how cold-blooded Chu Lui was. ”How can you do this?” Her face fell in an instant as beads of tear rolled down her face. Nevertheless, to Chu Lui, those tears were crocodile tears that disgusted him.

At times, he really wanted to peel off Li Manni's face and see for himself exactly the kind of monster that was underneath that layer of skin. How could such a vicious woman exist in this world? She had even poisoned the person who had slept beside her. She kept preaching for him to be a good father. He wondered whose bastard she had been carrying in her stomach.

This time, Li Manni released her grip and laughed bitterly. ”I know. I know. You want to reconcile with Xia Ruoxin, and so you are treating me like another Xia Ruoxin. Isn't that right? Your blood is cold; you don't even possess a heart. However, let me tell you.” She started laughing heartily, but she could taste the heartache and bitterness in her laughter.

”She will never forgive you in this lifetime. It will not happen, ever.” How could Xia Ruoxin forgive a man who wouldn't save his own biological daughter? There was no way Chu Lui would know that he had killed his own daughter for as long as he lived.

Chu Lui's gloomy eyes became darker as a layer of hellish fire began to burn in them. Alas, they diminished slowly. She could think whatever she wanted. Anyway, everything would come to an end soon.

He opened the door and strode out, without a care about the wailing woman behind him.

He had witnessed plenty of women crying. Until now, he realized that only one woman's tears were capable of making his heart sick and not suffered from heartache.

He strode into his office, sat down, and casually turned on his computer. After being away for a few days, the doc.u.ments from his company had piled up on his table. He would have to work nonstop for a few days and nights to finish going through them.

Du Jingtang rushed in promptly and parked his buttocks on Chu Lui's sofa as he stretched his arm along its back. ”It's much more comfortable sitting in your office. It's spacious and wide. Even the ceiling is higher than mine.”

”Want to swap?”

Chu Lui simply asked him. He would be happy to relinquish his position as CEO.

Du Jingtang placed his hand at his nape and proceeded to massage. It would be better if he didn't think about it. Having the designation as a company's CEO might sound impressive, but he knew his capabilities. If someone was to give him such a huge responsibility, he would rather jump down from some building and kill himself than to slog like a dog every day. He wouldn't have his own rights, too. Look at his cousin who had spent his whole glorious life for the company, and that Dong Fangjing who had dedicated every day to his work.

”Oh, yes.” Du Jingtang stood up and straightened himself before coming to the table. He braced himself with both of his palms down on the table. ”President Chu, your father-in-law's company is going bust. Aren't you going to help?”

”Oh, it is busted.” Chu Lui didn't sound surprised. ”It lasted for a few more days than I have expected.”

Du Jingtang could feel beads of cold sweat appearing on his forehead. How could such a son-in-law exist? He had made a pit, especially for his father-in-law to fall into.

”Jingtang, do me a favor.”
