Chapter 89: Mi Fan’s POV (Part 2) (2/2)

It wasn’t because it was naturally vile or that he had committed a terrible crime.

It was because I was the one who created his crimes.

This was the first time I had experienced what it was like to step on someone in order to climb up.

As someone in the media field, I knew how to attract readers’ attention. I knew how to trigger the public. The chairman’s family told me that the Lu Wenxue case was my best case.

Because not only was I able to control the mass, I was also able to control their judgment. It was already beyond the abilities of what an average reporter could do. I was a very capable person.

Exceeded beyond a reporter’s scope of work? What a joke. Reporters were supposed to report real news. What have I turned into?

The Lu Wenxue case was already something I couldn’t reverse. And something I didn’t dare to touch. I was even afraid to show my remorse.

The sinful plant growing inside my heart was constantly torturing me. Whenever I saw Lu Zhengyang, it was at its worse.

I was a normal human being who had a lot of self-interest. I knew the higher I climbed, the harder I’d fall.

A few days later, Suyang personally gave me a call.

I was pleasantly surprised.

But I was still logical. After our date, I hired a private detective to find out more about Suyang. As expected, it wasn’t a waste.

After the investigation, I was certain that Suyang came to me in regards to Lu Wenxue’s case.

Logically, I should’ve told the chairman about Suyang and his little assistant so that he could’ve helped me gotten rid of them. But I never said anything.

When the assistant had tailed me to the hotel, it was practically catching a turtle in a jar. Yet, I still let her off.

When did I become so kind?

Suddenly, I felt as if I was able to poke out my head from the sludge and take a breath.

There was a rope in front of me.

Was it an indication that it will pull me ashore?

It was like a fish bait. But I wasn’t sure if a delicious meal would await me or the pain of a hooked lip.

After hesitating again and again, I decided to hold onto the rope.

So, early on, I already told Suyang everything. That way, he wouldn’t have to pretend or act around me. The man’s charm was my bait.

Actually, Suyang’s appearance was more like my path to redemption. Because of him, I was finally able to express what I have hidden all of last year. By telling him all this, I was basically handing my life to him.

How could I have so much trust in a man I barely knew?

Afterwards, I realized it wasn’t because I trusted Suyang. At that moment, regardless of who had thrown me the rope, I would have taken it. I was fortunate that Suyang pulled me back ashore.

Later on, I understood something else. I wasn’t actually evil beyond cure. It was that no one had ever tried to stop me…

I placed the early photo of me as a reporter next to my mother’s grave. I no longer deserved to keep it. So, I shall allow it to accompany my mother’s side.

Once, the person who hated my guts and wanted to pour sulfuric acid on me had been smiling proudly next to me. Those days were gone forever.

We always tend to reminisce the past….

This is my redemption.
