Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1559: Chapter 909

Wen Xue curled up on the bed, staring blankly at the glass on the table. She had already locked herself in the room for a whole day, and instead of sorting things out, she felt increasingly confused.

She clearly understood that by not following Grandpa’s arrangements, her future might be happier, but she didn’t have the courage to break away from the family...

She could see that even though Second Grandpa advised her to think about herself, he didn’t genuinely like her. Therefore, she understood well that if she were kicked out, Second Grandpa and Second Grandma wouldn’t take her in.

To establish herself in society, she fell far short compared to Wen Yu, which was something she knew very well, so the only choice was to follow Grandpa’s wishes... However, such a choice would make her see no future...

What should she do? She shook her head vigorously, tears slowly sliding down her cheeks... She just wanted to live better, but why was it so hard?

From childhood to adulthood, she put all her efforts into pleasing Grandpa, and at first, Grandpa genuinely loved her. However, starting from the age of seventeen, things changed from what they used to be.

Although Grandpa didn’t possess her, he often asked her to strip naked and perform various embarrassing actions, claiming it was to teach her how to captivate men in the future...

She cried, she protested... but eventually, she yielded.

This was also the critical reason she found it increasingly hard to make up her mind; she wasn’t sure if going against Grandpa would lead him to exploit this aspect.

She believed Grandpa wouldn’t tell the truth but rather would spread rumors about her doing shameful things with other men—Grandpa knew all the marks on her body, so to defame her in this way was as easy as a snap of his fingers.

It’s not that she imagined Grandpa as too despicable, but in fact, Grandpa was exactly that kind of despicable person.

After Wen Yu came to talk to her, she realized Wen Yu knew everything about her, which made her feel she truly wasn’t as smart as Wen Yu—although she never admitted that before.

Wen Yu hoped she would escape Grandpa’s grasp soon and pursue her own happiness.

But this matter, easy to say, difficult to do, she had no special skills, no diploma; to establish herself in society, marry a suitable partner, and live a happy life was easier said than done...

"Knock knock knock..."

"Come in."

The door opened, and Luo Ye walked in, smiling.

"Are you here to persuade me too? No need." Before Luo Ye could speak, Wen Xue’s face darkened first; she didn’t like this kind of repeated bombardment.

"I didn’t plan to persuade you..." Luo Ye shrugged, "I just heard you’ve been cooped up in your room all day, so I came to see if you’re alright."

"I’m fine, can you leave now?" Wen Xue promptly issued an eviction order.

"Being fine isn’t just about appearances..." Luo Ye closed the door and sat on the sofa, staring at her, "Whether you’ve figured it out or not, regardless of how you eventually choose, I will never like you.

I’m here now not to persuade or comfort you, but just to see if there’s any possibility for change in you, this vined morning glory, which will directly affect how I treat you."

"Yes, I’m just like a vined morning glory, without protection, I can’t move at all; that’s why I’ve set my sights on Ye Xuan.

I can plainly tell you, even if you marry him, I won’t give up—even if I’m just his mistress, I feel it’s worthwhile."

"Feel free." Luo Ye smiled indifferently, "If you insist on going down this dark path, I won’t stop you; as for the future, I won’t remind you."

Wen Xue abruptly sat up: "Can you be any more cold-blooded?"

"Cold-blooded?" Luo Ye pointed to his nose, "Are you talking about me? Are you sure you’re talking about me?"

"Of course!"

"I see, so this is how you think of me. You come to snatch my fiancé, and I should happily offer him with both hands; that would not be cold-blooded, right?" Luo Ye’s expression suddenly turned cold, "Do you take me for an idiot?"

"I..." Wen Xue’s face turned bright red, "What I meant was, you know Ye Xuan’s character better than I do, and you know the result of my persistence better than anyone else. Standing from a family angle, you could remind me, advise me, let me not bang my head against a wall, can’t you?"

"Oh hey..." Luo Ye raised his eyebrows at her, "Don’t you understand the result? Wen Xue, no one in the Sha City Wen Family owes you anything, let alone your Beijing Wen Family; considering your past actions, letting you stay here these days is the greatest kindness.
