C12 Benefit-driven

However, Bai Chen smiled. Without any warning, his smile made Lin Xiyue's hair stand on end.

She could not deny that Bai Chen was indeed very handsome. With a smile on his face, she was even more beautiful. She could not think of anything else to describe him. She merely felt that he was very good-looking.

"What? You didn't do it yesterday?" Bai Chen then chuckled twice.

"You were holding my hand last night and wanted me to take you."

Lin Xiyue's face became redder and redder. She thought that if there was a crack on the ground, she would have crawled inside. This was too embarrassing!

If it was only one time, it would have been fine.

It would be embarrassing to spare her even if she was thick-skinned. Besides, she wasn't.

"I just want you to help me." Lin Xiyue was confused by his laughter, so she said something that was hard to say.

"Then tell me, why did you choose me?" Bai Chen put down the newspaper and looked at her in ridicule.

"It's for the best, you know, so I can live a good life."

Actually, she didn't reject him. She hated herself being forced by people she didn't like, hated herself for everything she had suffered in the Lin Clan. Yes, everything.

"I've saved you time and time again, and you're not grateful at all?"

"Of course I'm very grateful to you, Mr Bai Chen. But if you accept me for the first time, then there would be no possibility of these things happening!" She was sure.

"Hoh, can it be that you've become my fault?!" He shook his head with a helpless smile.

"Bai Chen, the reason why I've always treated you like this isn't because I have any ill intentions. In fact … "That's also the case. I've come to find you for my own sake …" She pursed her lips and her eyes reddened.

Raising his head to look at Bai Chen, his eyes were filled with a clear reflection, a pure and untainted speck of dust that reflected Bai Chen's face.

Ever since Bai Chen had met Lin Xiyue for the first time, he had asked Wu Xin to investigate her. It had been difficult for her to survive in such a large family, and she had faced difficulties and scoldings from her elders.

However, Lin Xiyue's father was also indifferent to it. He didn't treat her like his own daughter, but merely used her as a tool to exchange for benefits. The eldest daughter of the Lin Family had long since married out and successfully obtained benefits for Lin Yuan.

As an illegitimate daughter without her mother's protection, she could be exchanged for marriage instead of using her second daughter, Lin Qing. This was truly chilling.

Even an outsider like him felt that this was a bit too cruel for a girl, let alone a person involved.

The silence spread between the two of them. Lin Xiyue stubbornly wiped the tears in her eyes and stood up.

"Mister Bai Chen, thank you for saving me the previous two times. I won't force you. Goodbye."

After that, he bowed to Bai Chen and walked out of the main door decisively.

Bai Chen did not say anything, silently watching her walk away from his realization.

He had always refused to give her anything, so how could she face it?

She took the bus home. She had nowhere else to go, so she could only go back to her cold home.
