Chapter 433: Chapter 440 You Can Never Make Up for It in Your Lifetime

"Ning Xin’er!"

"Su Mengxin!"

The people who came in were Su Mengxin and Xu Yingying, and as soon as Su Mengxin and Ning Xin’er saw each other, they subconsciously called out each other’s names.

Li Yifei’s heart was in agony at this point. If Su Mengxin had come in alone, it would’ve just been a conflict between Ning Xin’er and him, but now that Xu Yingying had followed, what would Ning Xin’er do when she knew Xu Yingying would get involved, and that his marriage was no secret to Ning Xin’er anymore? He had no idea what Ning Xin’er would do next.

At this moment, Ning Xin’er swiftly turned around, took a few steps to Li Yifei’s desk, placed her hands on the desktop, gritted her teeth, and squeezed out a few words through clenched teeth, "What do you have to say for yourself this time?"

Since he had been discovered, Li Yifei immediately calmed down, lit a cigarette, and said with a smile, "I have nothing to say."

"You..." Li Yifei’s attitude infuriated Ning Xin’er even more, making her want to bite a piece of flesh off his body.

Xu Yingying felt something was off, as Ning Xin’er seemed like a woman who had been dumped by a faithless lover, so she quickly closed the door, walked up to Li Yifei’s side, placed a hand on his shoulder, and faced Ning Xin’er’s gaze, saying, "Husband, what’s going on here?"

Before Li Yifei could answer, Ning Xin’er cried out in disbelief, "Bastard, you’re married?"

Li Yifei nodded, patted Xu Yingying’s hand, and said, "That’s right, this is my wife Xu Yingying. Yingying, this is Ning Xin’er, someone I had a bit of a squabble with before."

Xu Yingying nodded and extended her hand to Ning Xin’er, saying, "Hello."

Ning Xin’er didn’t extend her hand and instead stared at Xu Yingying, slowly saying, "So you married this bastard. You really are blind."

Seeing that Ning Xin’er didn’t reciprocate the handshake, Xu Yingying wasn’t embarrassed. She simply withdrew her hand and said, "I know very well what kind of man my husband is. Whatever he did in the past, he is now my husband. Whatever issues arise, I will face them with him. Miss Ning, if my husband has wronged you in the past, feel free to talk to me, and I will provide an explanation."

Li Yifei was moved beyond words. Normally, a woman would be extremely angry if another woman showed up at her husband’s door, but Xu Yingying didn’t get angry. Instead, she was defending him. He really had an amazing wife.

Ning Xin’er’s lips curled into a cold smile and she said, "You’ll give me an explanation? What right do you have? This bastard toyed with me years ago, ruined my innocence. Tell me, what explanation can you give?"

Michelle stood to the side, somewhat stunned, not expecting Ning Xin’er to have a past with Li Yifei. Ning Xin’er’s revelation shocked Michelle so much that her jaw dropped. Brother Li was too incredible, having had an affair with a big star like Ning Xin’er, who even came looking for him. She didn’t know how to describe her feelings, but one thing she knew was that even though she found out that Li Yifei had relations with Ning Xin’er, she wasn’t the slightest bit unhappy. Instead, she felt a bit smug, knowing that every woman associated with Li Yifei had high status. Her liking for Li Yifei just proved that she had good taste.

Su Mengxin also found herself in an awkward spot. She had just barely managed to fool Ning Xin’er on Saturday, only for Ning Xin’er to show up at the door on Monday.

Coming to Ning Xin’er’s side, she took her arm and said softly, "Ning Xin’er, calm down. Let’s sit and talk about whatever’s bothering you."

Suddenly, Ning Xin’er turned her head towards Su Mengxin and burst into laughter, "Su Mengxin, didn’t you say this guy was your boyfriend? Weren’t you kissing him just yesterday? But he already has a wife. You, the number one beauty of Huaxia, becoming the other woman for this guy, isn’t that a joke?"

Xu Yingying’s face changed abruptly, looking at Su Mengxin in shock; that comment was overwhelmingly surprising to her.

With a bitter smile, Su Mengxin said to Xu Yingying, "Didn’t I do that the day before yesterday just to trick you? So, we had to pretend. Yifei and Yingying are both my good friends."

If someone else had said this, Xu Yingying wouldn’t have believed it so readily, but Su Mengxin’s own words were immediately believed by Xu Yingying because Su Mengxin’s status was too esteemed for Xu Yingying to doubt that she would have any interest in Li Yifei.

"Is that so? Yet, I saw how engrossed you both were in that kiss. You couldn’t be that engrossed without some feelings, could you? I’m telling you, wife of Li Yifei, your husband isn’t anything good. It would be better for you to leave him sooner rather than later."

Having heard Su Mengxin’s explanation, Xu Yingying no longer cared about the hurtful words from Ning Xin’er. In fact, under the current circumstances, she couldn’t possibly care about those words anymore. Ning Xin’er was now her greatest enemy. With a slight smile, she said, "Perhaps my husband wasn’t a good person in the past, but I know he is a good husband now, and that’s enough for me. It seems he truly did something wrong to you, but it’s all in the past. Getting angry isn’t a solution. If you have any demands, why not just state them clearly? Let’s discuss this together."

At this moment, Ning Xin’er shifted her gaze to Xu Yingying, whose recent behavior had surprised her. She had thought that bringing this up would cause great trouble for Li Yifei, but she didn’t expect his wife to defend him so staunchly.

Dragging a chair over, Ning Xin’er sat down, crossing her left leg over her right. Her expression had calmed, and coupled with her graceful demeanor, she was once again the big star Ning Xin’er, no longer the angry and brash woman from before.

"Alright, so you’ve married this scoundrel and now want to stand up for him. If you want to talk, then let’s talk," Ning Xin’er said, her tone no longer as fierce as before.

At this point, Li Yifei, however, started to worry. He found Ning Xin’er easier to deal with when she was angry. If she became composed, she would undoubtedly be much harder to handle. The main issue was that he had indeed done her wrong, which left him feeling guilty and uncertain.

Although Michelle wanted to stay and look after Li Yifei, she was concerned about him. But with one being Li Yifei’s wife, one his former lover, and another his secretary, she felt superfluous. She quickly said, "President Xu, I’ll go out first."

Xu Yingying nodded and instructed, "Don’t mention what happened here, and don’t tell anyone Ning Xin’er was here either. It could cause a bad impact. Also, make sure no one else comes in."

Michelle promptly agreed, then took another worried glance at Li Yifei before she exited his office.

Su Mengxin didn’t leave. She could still act as a mediator in this situation, as she knew both parties well.

Xu Yingying stood by Li Yifei’s side, her hand resting on his shoulder, and with a light smile, said, "Miss Ning Xin’er, there’s no one else here. You can make your demands known now."

Ning Xin’er looked at Li Yifei and then at Xu Yingying, her anger growing. Li Yifei, that scoundrel, had ruined her and then simply left. Now he was here, married and living a cozy life. She snorted and said, "I’d really like to hear what this scoundrel has to say?"

Li Yifei cleared his throat and admitted, "Ning Xin’er, that incident was indeed my fault. But it’s been so long since it happened, and we’ve both started new lives. I hope you can let go of it."

Ning Xin’er’s eyes widened as she furiously retorted, "You make it sound so easy! You took advantage, dusted off your pants, and just left. Don’t you know how important a woman’s first time is? Now you want to deny it?"

Li Yifei lit a cigarette and said, "I know I’ve hurt you, and what you did to me back then was also quite harsh—I nearly died at your hands. Any debt I owed you has been nearly paid off. If you’re still unrelenting like this, I can only say there’s nothing more I can do."

Li Yifei had never spoken of the difficulties he faced. With his declaration about nearly dying at Ning Xin’er’s hands, it was clear she must have put him through a lot, and even if he’d been wrong, he had made nearly enough amends. Therefore, Xu Yingying felt more confident and squeezed Li Yifei’s shoulder, supporting his somewhat tough stance and said to Ning Xin’er, "Miss Ning Xin’er, arguing over who was right or wrong in the past doesn’t mean much anymore. So tell us, what exactly do you want now?"

Ning Xin’er snorted. She knew what she had done to Li Yifei, but even then, she still bitterly said, "Do you think you’ve made amends by suffering back then? Do you have any idea of the hardships I’ve endured since then? Do you know how I wandered alone without anyone to care for me, unable to make money, renting a tiny room, each day eating hard steamed buns, drinking cold water, and curling up on a bed, struggling? You caused all of this. The hatred I have for you will never fade in this lifetime."

Li Yifei responded in surprise, "No way, why did you have to wander? That incident shouldn’t have been known by anyone, right?"

Grinding her teeth, Ning Xin’er said, "Humph! You ran off here to live the high life, how would you think about the miserable state I was in? Shuai Mingsheng, no, Li Yifei, you should know you’ll never be able to make up for what you owe me in this lifetime."

Su Mengxin, seeing Ning Xin’er getting increasingly agitated to the point where she lost her composure, quickly patted her shoulder and asked, "Ning Xin’er, what exactly is going on?"

She sensed that Ning Xin’er’s hatred for Li Yifei stemmed more from her subsequent life alone, which seemed to be the real issue. To unravel the knot between Li Yifei and Ning Xin’er, they needed to understand this matter clearly.

Ning Xin’er glared at Li Yifei, then slowly uttered a few words, leaving Li Yifei and Xu Yingying dumbstruck.
