Love You Till the End-Chapter 873 - 871: Don’t Worry, I Can Afford It

Her chin felt as if it were being crushed, aching in pain. A layer of mist covered Su Jiuyi’s eyes.

No, I can’t cry!

She took a deep breath, trying her best to adjust her emotions and held back her tears. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

That’s how she has always been, able to control her joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness very well.

She was unwilling to admit defeat, constrained by the environment she lived in, and compelled by her proud self-esteem.

The man’s lips curled into a faint, indifferent smile. He released Su Jiuyi’s chin forcefully. "I’ll give you three minutes to consider carefully. Rest assured, I can afford it."

He turned and walked into another room, with the slam of the door behind him. Su Jiuyi could no longer hold back and buried her head in the quilt.

Tears began to fall, and she tightly covered her mouth, stifling her voice to keep from crying aloud.

No, she can’t stay here and let him mock her.

Su Jiuyi sat up straight, enduring the discomfort in her lower body. She found her underwear under the bed and hastily put it on.

She looked at her mangled clothing and glanced at the new ones on the table. Her gaze lingered between the two outfits for a few seconds before she opted for the new set.

Although he had it brought here, it belonged to the nightclub. It couldn’t be considered a debt to him, and moreover, if she left wearing torn clothes, she would certainly become the laughingstock of everyone.

She stood up, supporting her waist as she limped towards the door. With her hand on the doorknob, she glanced back at the firmly closed bathroom door, biting her lower lip tightly.

Still, she turned around, pressed down the handle, and opened the door, leaving swiftly.

When Shi Aoju emerged from the bathroom, fully dressed, Su Jiuyi was already gone.

Looking at the chaotic mess in the room, he couldn’t help but feel a bit agitated.

What exactly happened?

Last night, he hadn’t ordered anyone to deliver alcohol to the room, and the person in charge confirmed that before this, no staff had entered to clean.

Who placed the boner pills in the room?

That type of pill had no odor initially. He noticed it only after making a phone call in the room when the scent became intense, causing him to react physically.

Shi Aoju’s brow furrowed into a deep crease, astonished that he, known for his strong self-control, had been manipulated.

Alright.

A dangerous glint suddenly flashed in his deep eyes. He turned and picked up the phone on the table, dialing a number.

Su Jiuyi ran breathlessly back to the employee locker room, leaned against the cupboard, and took a deep breath. Her gaze was somewhat dim and lost, her bloodless lips reflecting her poor mental state.

She weakly leaned against the cabinet, the splitting headache causing her to feel suffocated.

Her mother had died when she was very young, and a year later, her father married another woman.

Since then, she was ostracized within the Su Family, becoming even more insignificant than the servants.

She began to rebel, defying all of her father’s wishes. Over the years, she learned to be strong and hide her feelings, wrapping herself with fierce thorns like a hedgehog to protect herself from being hurt.

It was through her friend Qi Jingren’s introduction that she came to work at Ciaos.

Ciaos was a den of crime, a place of debauchery, filled with temptation and danger.

But the salary here was high, and to earn enough money to leave that cold home as soon as possible, she had no choice.
