I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 67: Sacrificing Your Misfortune to Commemorate My Once Kindness

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Sacrificing Your Misfortune to Commemorate My Once Kindness

"My parents are really sick, ruining my work is like sentencing them to death! Chen Hansui, when you were at school, you would cry at the sight of a dead cat or dog. You wouldn’t be so cruel as to watch my whole family die, would you!" Yuan Youyou spoke through her tears.

Suizi’s gaze fell on the large willow tree by the road.

It had snowed last night, and frost was layered on the branches. Yuan Youyou’s loud cries seemed to shake a withered leaf loose, which fell onto her hair.

Suizi reached out her hand, her long fingers pinching the withered leaf, her movements gentle and her voice soft.

"I still cry when I see dead cats and dogs."

With teary eyes, Yuan Youyou pitifully looked at Suizi, clutching onto her last glimmer of hope.

"You’ll forgive me, right?"

"No, I won’t forgive you. But after you pay the price, I might shed a few tears for your family who raised such a waste."

Yuan Youyou didn’t quite understand Suizi’s meaning, and stared at her in astonishment.

"I pity your parents for failing to raise a morally upright child, and I’m sorry for the wrong choices you’ve made. But, this has nothing to do with my desire to take revenge on you. They are two separate issues that have no relation."

It took Yuan Youyou a few seconds to translate Suizi’s words, which essentially meant —

"You’re messing with me?!"

"No, I’m expressing my stance very seriously."

"Are you trying to kill me? You want me to die?!" Yuan Youyou’s voice became sharp.

"You brought this upon yourself. When you drugged me, did you consider your parents’ feelings? You knew they were sick, yet you still did such a thing."

As the sky started to lightly snow again, Yu Jingting off in the distance gestured at Suizi to hurry up.

The cold was coming with the snow, and he didn’t want his wife and sister to freeze.

A warmth sprung within Suizi’s heart and a tiny smile spread across her lips.

She looked up, at the snowy sky.

The winter snow in Dongbei was powdery and clean, harsh yet refreshing, much like Yu Jingting, pure yet fierce.

This was a sight she would never tire of seeing.

"Chen Hansui, I’m only twenty years old, my life has just begun. You can’t make me carry this stain at such a young age. What can I do if I get fired after this?" If it weren’t for the crowds of people, Yuan Youyou would probably kneel before Chen Hansui.

She noted that Suizi was totally different than how she was during school.

During college, Chen Hansui was an excellent student with a mild temperament and was easy to talk to.

The Chen Hansui in front of her, with her unaggressive tone and soft expression, made it difficult to fathom her thoughts.

"Yeah, twenty years old, such a wonderful age. Why would you do such a disgusting thing at this age? Did you consider that I’m only twenty years old when you drugged me? Did you ever think about how my life would change because of you?"

Yuan Youyou was silent for a few moments, and just before she tried to argue back, Suizi held a finger to her lips, gesturing for her to keep quiet.

"I don’t have the patience to listen to your excuses. No pair of ears can ever be truly convinced by a mouth."

"I’ll give you two options now. First, resign from the newspaper agency on your own accord, sincerely apologize to me, and then we can clear our accounts with each other."

"What’s the second?" Yuan Youyou was reluctant to give up this stable job she had fought so hard for.

"Second, I kick you out myself, and you apologize sincerely to me. Whether we can clear our accounts, that depends on my mood."

"They’re not any different?! You’re messing with me!!!"

Suizi shook her head.

"They are different. If you voluntarily admit your mistake, it’s more likely that I’ll be less angry. Once I’ve cooled down, you and I will be strangers and I won’t retaliate. You should be grateful that you offended me, not my man."

Suizi knew, she was not tolerant in this, but compared to Yu Jingting, she was definitely more generous.

To provoke Yu Jingting, he could stir a whole mess, continue to retaliate for dozens of years if he wanted to.

Suizi was sincerely advising Yuan Youyou, but Yuan Youyou was unappreciative.

Yuan Youyou took a step back, her expression distorted as she cursed at Chen Hansui:

"Chen Hansui! Just because you can’t find a good job, doesn’t mean you can come here and be jealous of me! If you really have evidence, go and press charges, make a scene! I don’t believe that after all this time, you still have any evidence!"

Suizi stared at her, expressionless, and sighed.

"It seems you have given up the first choice."

"Stop playing games! I’m not afraid of you! You are a pitiful loser who deserves to be unhappy. You are destined to end up with nothing!"

After finishing her tirade, Yuan Youyou strode past Suizi into the guard’s office.

She didn’t dare to look back to see Suizi’s expression.

The stronger she appeared on the surface, the more fearful she was at heart.

In her hurry to leave, Yuan Youyou didn’t see, Suizi’s eyes when she looked at her. There was no hate, just pity.

"Such good advice, wasted on a ghost that is set on her own destruction." Suizi murmured softly.

Yu Jingting came over with a darkened face, glaring in the direction where Yuan Youyou had left, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"She cursed at you, and you just bore it?"

He regretted, he should not have let his wife handle this alone. He should have rolled up his sleeves and beaten that ugly woman himself, till she was incapacitated!

Seeing his tantrum, the curve of Suizi’s lips widened a bit. She reached out and gently touched his cheek.

The skin was cool and extremely pleasing to the touch.

"You can still smile while being scolded?" Yu Jingting suspected Suizi’s sanity.

If Suizi’s mind was muddled, he didn’t mind draining the excess water from her brain. He’d do it right from her tiny mouth.

"I’m laughing as I’ll no longer have nightmares. You know what? For a long time, I couldn’t forgive myself."

"Why?"

"I felt I was stupid when I was twenty, I hated myself for always being deceived by others, I couldn’t forgive my past stupidity."

In her previous life after being diagnosed with depression, Suizi would often reminisce about the hurts she had suffered, hating her past naivety.

But just a while ago, when Suizi faced Yuan Youyou, her mindset had changed.

"I realized, those people who harbored ill intentions were not smarter than me, they were just as stupid. The reason they succeeded was because they had no morals, no shame, those who abandon morals can always exploit the kindness of others to achieve their aim. Those good people who get taken advantage of are not stupid, they’re just too kind."

"What are you saying?"

Yu Jingting did not understand Suizi’s reflections, which were a result of her past life’s experiences, and his eyes were focused on the courtyard of the newspaper agency. In his mind, he was planning various ways to beat up Yuan Youyou.

"Let me put it in a way you can understand —" Suizi paused, flashing a smile more radiant than frost on a tree, "I’m going to take you and Jiaojiao to the newspaper agency now."

"To beat her?" Yu Jingting’s eyes gleamed at the prospect, his fists were already itching for a fight!

"Whether or not we should beat her, I’ll leave that to your mood. But before that, I want her to lose her job. Do you know what time is the last bus back to our village?"

"Two in the afternoon, it’s now seven fifty in the morning."

"That’s enough, we’ll finish this battle within half a day."
