Chapter 2492: 2492 A Setup within a Setup, a Mystery within a Mystery (12)2492 A Setup within a Setup, a Mystery within a Mystery (12)
“What is it, Xixi?”
“I think it’s a mistake that I came to the States,” Xixi said in a sobbing voice.
“Calm down, Xixi. Tell me what happened slowly.”
Ever since Huo Mian saw Luna, Huo Mian had become worried about Xixi getting in trouble in New Orleans.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Rick took over his family business, the time he could spend with her decreased.
Although they had big dreams for their future, the reality was cruel to Xixi. Xixi had thought everything would be like a dream come true, but now she realized that it was very rough on her.
“Mian, I’m in a bad situation right now…”
“Xixi, what’s wrong? Did you and Rick get into a fight?” Huo Mian thought maybe it was because Rick talked too little because there was no way he could fall for another girl and betray Xixi.
However, it seemed to her that the two miscommunicated and got into a fight with each other.
“No. Rick is really good to me… Really really good…” Xixi emphasized.
“Then why are you so upset?” Huo Mian whispered in her phone as she carefully chatted with Xixi on WeChat.
“I think I’ve become a burden to Rick…” Xixi sounded very ashamed.
Before Huo Mian responded, Xixi continued her story, “Mian, I thought I didn’t mind Rick being a gang leader but when I saw him kill someone with my own eyes and how we have to escape for our lives, that was when I realized that I am afraid of this lifestyle…”
“So, are you giving up?” Huo Mian asked.
“No, it’s not that. I just want to help Rick get out of this bloody business where he has to lick the blood off the tip of a knife, so we can live an ordinary life.”
“Xixi, you’re being naive. That’s impossible.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Xixi heard Huo Mian’s response, she fell into silence…
“It might have been possible before Rick’s brother became disabled. Ever since Rick returned to America, all the possibilities of living an ordinary life vanished for him. He is now living a life with no turning back. Qin Chu and I went to New Orleans to visit him before and we saw how he lived. It’s not that easy to just run away because he has a lot of enemies in the underground world. There’s no saying whether he can even survive if he quits. Xixi, everyone has the freedom of choosing how they live. If you really don’t like your current lifestyle, you must leave Rick. If you don’t want to leave him, then you must face his reality with him.”
“Mian, am I too weak?” Xixi asked in a weak voice.
“No. You were an innocent girl and how you’ve acted has proved you are a courageous person.”
“Mian, I’m not afraid of my own death but I’m terrified of Rick’s death… Am I being contradicting? He’s still young but he has to live such a life. I love him too much…”
“Xixi, have you met Luna?”
The woman who self-proclaims to be Rick’s fiancee?” Xixi responded.
Yeah, I’ve met her soon after coming to the States. That woman is proud and arrogant but was kicked out by Rick. She told her father about me and her father wanted to kill me. When Rick found out, he was very mad. He cut all ties with Luna’s family and the two families are at war with each other. Luna’s father even got injured so now his family is in a deep rivalry with Rick’s… That’s why I’m a burden to Rick. No one likes me here. They all think I’m bad luck for Rick. If Rick chose to be with Luna, then it’ll be better for him… Not only am I unable to help him, I’m also creating more trouble for him. Mian, what should I do? I feel so depressed…” Xixi started to whimper again.
Huo Mian could tell that Xixi was very depressed or she wouldn’t be crying during their WeChat call.
