They betrayed him. Yet why would she wear an innocent expression and still plead for the man? He hated him.

Hate? He didn't deserve this word at all. Hearing his name, Gu Yubai's expression became more gloomy, his eyes cold as frost. He regarded him as his best friend… trusted him, but what did he get in return? Betrayal.

"Will every wrong in life be written off with death? It's such a good thing."

Lin Meng lowered her head. It was their fault he hated Ouyang Jun. In fact, he did not know, even if he took her away from Ouyang Jun, she would still not marry him. She couldn't marry someone she had never wanted.

She had escaped, but he fell into the abyss. He had been there, unable to let her go…

After a moment of silence, Gu Yubai raised his head, closed his eyes and spoke.

“So if I give you a chance to make up…”

Hearing this, Lin Meng grew interested in the possibility of redemption.

“Marry me, stay with me.” He looked at her with calm, indifferent eyes.

She stared at him like a piece of wood, the hand thar held the pen trembled.

After five long years, he mentioned the same thing, she panicked.

“You don't have to rush to reply to me.” Looking at her stiffened appearance, he had a bad feeling. He was scared of her reply.

Lin Meng wrote on the paper. Five years ago she made a mistake.

*Sorry, I can't promise you, it's impossible for us. *

Five years ago, she hesitated to answer his proposal, and things went out of her hand. She could no longer make the same mistake.

The lesson was learned, and the cost was heavy. She gave her answer.

Gu Yubai frowned when he glanced at the note. His cold eyes looked straight at her.

She clenched the armrest, not evading his gaze. But her shuddering shoulders gave her emotions away.

“You have no qualifications to refuse. It's atonement for the shame you brought me.” He stood up, finished his words and left without turning back.

She refused without a second thought.

Good, very good! He hadn't learned! What did he expect? Her ruthlessness taught him a lesson.
