Chapter 503: Chapter 503 Yufei, I’m Very Happy_1
Ruan Tianling played the recording, listening intently.
Xiao Lang’s voice kept coming from it, making Tianling’s eyes turn colder with every word. Jian Yufei lowered her eyes slightly, her hands tightened subtly.
Although she didn’t say anything, and didn’t agree to Xiao Lang’s overtures, she indirectly accepted Tianling’s ill-treatment towards her.
She didn’t know if he would become angry, or what he would do to her.
Jian Yufei remembered his warning before they arrived, and found herself shivering uncontrollably.
If he dared to imprison her, she swore she’d rather die, dragging him down into Hell with her!
The recording ended. Ruan Tianling reached out to hold her chin and turned her face towards him.
Jian Yufei’s eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes betraying a hint of fear.
The man was staring deeply at her, his cold, stern features both commanding and cruel.
Jian Yufei’s heart began to race. Was he angry? Was he about to lose his temper?
Was he going to get angry over this?
She didn’t do anything. She didn’t admit to any of her unhappiness or agree with Xiao Lang, nor did she seek help from him or speak too much with him.
She didn’t even accept his goodwill.
She didn’t dare to trust Xiao Lang easily, didn’t dare cross Ruan Tianling’s bottom line, and didn’t dare to take risks.
Jian Yufei realized that after a ruthless threat from Ruan Tianling today, her courage seemed to shrink a size or two.
Maybe he was just making empty threats, he wouldn’t really imprison her forever, right?
After all, that would be unlawful, and with a big company to run, he couldn’t afford to break the law – doing so would mean bringing down the entire company.
After some self-consolation, Jian Yufei’s courage grew slightly larger.
She shifted slightly, then asked Ruan Tianling neutrally, “Did you mean what you said?”
“What do you mean?”
“About letting me go out, and not keeping me locked up all the time.”
Ruan Tianling glance at her, and Jian Yufei maintained eye contact with him, her heart wildly anxious.
He looked away, the corner of his mouth twitching upwards, “Yes, I meant what I said. I’d like you to go out more often, it will help improve your mood. Yufei, any signs of your depression lately?”
Recently, he had been watching her closely and observed that she seemed to be back to normal, with no signs of those uncontrollable, self-destructive urges anymore.
Jian Yufei paused for a moment before realizing it – her depression seemed to have improved.
It appeared as if after returning from D City, her depression was gone.
When the two assassins Xu Man had hired planned to push her off the building, she overcame her psychological barriers and no longer contemplated suicide by jumping off the building.
