Chapter 366: Past
Qin Yi watched the scene with her cold phoenix eyes. Despite seeing Qin Jiaojiao in such a state, her heart was not moved in the slightest.
What about the joy from getting revenge? There was none of it. If possible, she would rather not know the truth.
As she looked at Qin Jiaojiao’s pained face and the extremely pleased Zheng Zhong, Qin Yi suddenly recalled her past; she was exactly like Qin Jiaojiao, being lied to and turned in circles.
Qin Jiaojiao liked peach blossoms, and even in the apocalypse, the Qin family members went through difficulties to find a peach blossom sprout. In the apocalypse, all plants and vegetation withered quickly, but miraculously, the peach blossom was able to survive and had blossomed in the end.
The day when the peach blossom flower opened was the best day. At that time, Zheng Zhong was suave and clean as he held onto a flower with a gentle look in his eyes, saying, “Yiyi, you’re a really good girl and I find myself falling for you.”
Qin Yi no longer recalled her mood at that point of time. Joy? Bashfulness? Fear and at a loss for action? It might be everything, since it was the first time someone had confessed to her.
But she immediately rejected Zheng Zhong because she felt that she had let Qin Jiaojiao down. Although Qin Jiaojiao had mentioned many times that she did not fancy Zheng Zhong, Qin Yi did not dare make the step.
But Zheng Zhong did not give up, continuing to display his affections for her. Even Qin Jiaojiao had told her it was fine and that she did not mind. At that time, she was smitten by Zheng Zhong’s words and did not see the disdain in those eyes.
After that, Zheng Zhong became colder and colder towards her. At a loss, she tried her best to get him back, only to watch him and Qin Jiaojiao in bed.
She thought she was at fault, that she was the one that had intruded in their emotions. At that point of time, despite suffering and feeling pained, she let it all go.
But it was only after being imprisoned in the laboratory for so many years did she find out the truth. Zheng Zhong had merely been putting on an act for her younger sister, intending to throw Qin Yi away after making her fall in love with him.
Many thoughts of her past came to mind as Qin Yi lowered her eyes. Did she love Zheng Zhong? No, she did not even fancy him. It was simply that she was used to treating others well but suddenly having someone treat her in that same way made her blind.
Yun Huan moved the person in his embrace as he gently pinched her nose, stating, “I knew you’d want to take care of this yourself. I left her and Chuchu for you.”
Qin Yi was stunned as something struck her ice-cold heart, as though something had cracked.
The man hugging her had a gentle look on his face. Along with the sunlight beaming down, fragments of her heart started to break as she raised her head. She could see his perfect face and his peach blossom eyes.
Qin Yi lowered her gaze again and spoke indifferently, “You did this.”
Yun Huan naturally knew what Qin Yi was talking about. He had set this whole scene out and intentionally let Qin Jiaojiao go. He had also arranged for her to meet Zheng Zhong.
She destroyed his little fellow’s hope and beliefs, so he wanted to destroy hers. No one could bully Qin Yi; even he himself was no exception.
“Do you still want to continue watching? Otherwise, I’ll bring you elsewhere. Don’t worry, she can’t run away. When you return to the villa, she’ll be there,” Yun Huan assured her gently, combing Qin Yi’s hair.
Qin Yi shook her head. She did not want to watch on.
While Qin Jiaojiao continued begging, Yun Huan carried Qin Yi away.
Along the way, Qin Yi felt groggy. The base was structured as per the past, but she just wanted to have a bit of the sun.
