687 The More Guilty, The Louder He Speaks

“Xi’er, what do you mean? Don’t you believe me?” Zhuang Li’s expression changed and his voice turned cold. “Do you believe in Shen Hanxing? After such a long time, why don’t you trust me?”

“I don’t doubt you.” Wei Xi’er’s eyelashes trembled. She suddenly felt a little cold. Crossing her arms, she said softly, “Zhuang Li, don’t lose your temper.”

“I’m not angry, I just feel disappointed.” The calmer Wei Xi’er was, the more uncertain Zhuang Li felt. He couldn’t help but raise his voice anxiously, “Can’t you see through Shen Hanxing’s scheme? She just wants to ruin our relationship! If you want to see it, it means you don’t trust me. I’ll be estranged from you. On the other hand, you will feel upset if you don’t see it! That’s her scheme! Wei Xi’er, you just don’t believe me, right?”

“Zhuang Li, do you know that there’s an old saying that describes you well?” Wei Xi’er quietly looked at Zhuang Li and said suddenly. Zhuang Li was stunned. He couldn’t understand why Wei Xi’er said that. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, “What is it?”

!!
“The more guilty a person is, the louder he speaks.” Wei Xi’er laughed as if she found it interesting. She then said to Zhuang Li, “Well, maybe he will turn angry out of humiliation too. Look, doesn’t it look like what you’re doing now? ”

“What do you mean?” Zhuang Li’s hand trembled. After he made up with Wei Xi’er, Zhuang Li seemed to be coaxing her. However, in reality, Zhuang Li was the dominating one in their relationship. Wei Xi’er liked Zhuang Li, so she could not bear to embarrass him. No matter what she did, she was always considerate of him. This was the first time Zhuang Li heard such harsh words from Wei Xi’er’s mouth. He couldn’t believe it for a moment. He felt embarrassed and panicked. He had planned for so long. He couldn’t lose Wei Xi’er again, at least not before he took back the Zhuang Group.

If it wasn’t for Wei Xi’er, several of his projects would have stopped. He would have failed and the money invested would have been wasted. This would make him feel more and more ashamed in front of his grandfather. A while ago, Zhuang Yu had just closed a deal on a new project. He couldn’t lose to Zhuang Yu anymore.

Just as Zhuang Li’s thoughts were running wild and he was filled with regret, Wei Xi’er looked at him quietly for a long time. “Look at you, is it that hot? Why are you sweating so much?” She lowered her eyes and took out a handkerchief from her bag. She gently wiped the sweat off Zhuang Li’s forehead and smiled. “I’m just joking with you. It’s fine if you don’t want to show me. It’s getting late. Let’s go.” With that, she got up and got into the car.

Just as she opened the car door, Wei Xi’er’s wrist was grabbed by Zhuang Li. “Xi’er, let me explain. I didn’t mean it that way.” Zhuang Li’s eyes darted around. He was clearly a little anxious. He gulped and tried his best to explain, “I was wrong. It was because I was afraid that you wouldn’t believe me. I care about you too much. Don’t overthink. If you want to see it, I’ll show it to you. Don’t be angry, okay?” He gritted his teeth and made up his mind to lift the collar of his shirt. He was betting that if he was willing to show it, she would believe him. She might then feel guilty for suspecting him, so she would stop him.

During this period of time, Zhuang Li knew how much Wei Xi’er loved him. She couldn’t bear to check his collar and embarass him, so he had to try his best to stay calm and put on a fearless look.

“You know how much I hate Shen Hanxing, right? Because of her, we almost lost each other.” As Zhuang Li spoke, he unbuttoned his suit jacket and pinched the edge of his right collar. “I was too angry just now. I went against Shen Hanxing on purpose. I’ve thought it through. Xi’er, you’re the most important person. I’ll prove it to you now.”

“Zhuang Li.” Right before Zhuang Li lifted his collar, Wei Xi’er’s cold and soft fingers pressed on his hand. Wei Xi’er stared right at him. Under the dim light by the beach, some kind of emotion was surging in her eyes. The sound of the waves came into her ears one after another. It seemed like a long time, but it had only been a short moment before she sighed softly, “Forget it.”
