My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1029: Cleverly Cruel

He had committed the most atrocious act and thus must pay the greatest price. Therefore, no matter how much she hated him, humiliated him, he was willing to accept it all, bit by bit, to make amends for her suffering, to repay with his life the sins he had committed against her.

"Now that you know the truth, let me go. It’s what you owe me." Ye Lu’s eyes were moist as she quietly turned her head away. She didn’t have the energy to entangle herself any further, nor did she wish to hate a man she deeply loved.

"Lu’er, wouldn’t that be letting me off too easily?"

Seeing her determination to leave, Third Young Master Jun’s heart throbbed painfully, his usually cool phoenix eyes unable to conceal his sorrow. He gently caressed her eyes, his laugh carefree and casual.

"You should stay by my side, torment me fiercely, take your revenge—that would be true retribution!"

Don’t leave, please don’t leave him, okay?

His heart was in agony.

Ye Lu coldly pushed his hand away: "If you love me, then me leaving is the greatest revenge against you. If you don’t love me, then my revenge is pointless."

Third Young Master Jun was shaken. What she said was so very true. Leaving was indeed the greatest revenge against him. He looked at her and sighed deeply, "Lu’er, you’re so clever it’s cruel. You make it even harder to let go. What am I to do?"

Upon hearing his tone, gentle and bone-chillingly intimate, Ye Lu’s expression changed. She knew this man’s nature all too well.

She suddenly turned back in anger and glared at him fiercely: "Even if you force me to go back, it’s useless. With me harboring nothing but hatred for you, and being nothing but a source of torment, what do you think will change?"

"Then torment me," Third Young Master Jun carelessly responded while stroking the corner of her eye filled with hatred, his smile indifferent. "My greatest fear is that you wouldn’t even want to torment me."

Facing his unrelenting, ruffian behavior, Ye Lu was infuriated.

"What more do you hope to change? No matter what you do, how you try to move me, I will never forgive you. If you want me to hate you less, then let me go."

"Then I prefer you to hate me! It seems that no matter what, you want to leave."

"Yes."

"Then I must resort to violence."

"You..." Ye Lu trembled with anger.

Third Young Master Jun forcefully picked her up, restraining her hands and feet, not allowing her to move. His misty phoenix eyes were tinged with danger and ferocity, his face cold and haughty, displaying the utmost decisiveness and irreversibility.

"I, Jun Huang, will not accept any refusal. If I want you, then you can only be entangled with me for life, I won’t let go even in death! Ye Lu, give it up, you can only ever be by my side."

Ye Lu looked up from his embrace, her eyes coldly gazing at his proud chin.

"Third Young Master Jun, you never understood respect. Whatever you want, you just take it, regardless of others’ pain. It doesn’t matter if it was seven years ago or seven years later, you’re the same. You will never be worthy of anyone’s love!"

...

Third Young Master Jun brought Ye Lu back to the villa, but her attitude towards him was colder than ever. He spoke, he was tender, but no matter what he did, she ignored him. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Third Young Master Jun was not discouraged; he wasn’t someone who gave up easily.

As long as she stayed by his side, he saw an opportunity to compensate for her injury, to soften her heart.

The next day, the newspapers were covered with the news of Third Young Master Jun’s failed proposal, stirring up a buzz and causing quite the embarrassment.

Feiyu was furious upon seeing it, convinced that it was Gu Yan and Jun Shi’s doing, wanting to besmirch the reputation of Third Young Master. He intended to call the media to have the newspapers retracted and the news removed from the internet.

Third Young Master Jun looked tired, the blood pooling in his eyes, but he gestured a sign to stop.
