"Changting, listen to me, it's all a misunderstanding. I...I didn't mean to do this." Shen Yue's voice was full of pleading and grievance.

"So what is your original intention?" Li Changting stared at Shen Yue.

A trace of panic flashed in Shen Yue's eyes. She knew she could no longer avoid this question. She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound more determined: "I... I just wanted Qiao Xi to drink this glass of wine. I didn't expect you to drink it too."

She had clearly made arrangements for that night.

After Qiao Yuyue drinks that glass of wine, she will arrange for someone to destroy her innocence.

She never thought that Li Changting would also drink.

"Unexpectedly?" Li Changting's voice was full of sarcasm. "There are many unexpected things, such as the legal sanctions you are facing now."

Shen Yue's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and she knew that she was in a desperate situation.

She thought her plan was flawless, but she didn't expect that Li Changting would find the flaw in the end.

"Changting, I beg you, please let me go this time. I really know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again." Shen Yue's voice was filled with tears, and she tried to impress Li Changting with her pleading.

However, Li Changting was unmoved. He looked at Shen Yue coldly and said, "Let you go? Do you think that's possible? Your actions have caused great harm to Qiao Xi and me. How can we let you go so easily?"

Shen Yue knew that she could no longer evade her responsibilities. She closed her eyes and tears rolled down her cheeks.

She knew that she would face severe punishment from the law, but it was all her own fault and she could not blame anyone else.

Li Changting looked at Shen Yue, a complex emotion welling up in his heart.

He felt lucky for Qiao Yuyue, but also felt sorry for Shen Yue's fall. He stood up and prepared to leave.

"Changting, I..." Shen Yue wanted to say something, but Li Changting had already turned and left.

Li Changting, who had just walked to the door, seemed to remember something and walked back.

"You were the one who kidnapped the two children, right?" He stared at Shen Yue and asked.

Shen Yue has been trying to put Qiao Mihua in danger, but he protects her because of what happened that night.

Now it seems that the kidnapping that day was most likely done by her.

Facing Li Changting's questioning, Shen Yue instantly lost all resistance.

Her face was as pale as paper and her lips were trembling, but she couldn't utter a word.

She knew she had nowhere to escape, and all her lies and disguises seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.

Li Changting looked at her, his eyes full of disappointment and anger.

He didn't expect that Shen Yue would do such a thing.

He once treated her as his friend, trusted her, and was even willing to give everything for her.

But now, he found that he was wrong, extremely wrong.

He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm: "Shen Yue, you really disappoint me. I thought you just did something irrational because of jealousy, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing. You really make me sad."

When Shen Yue heard this, she finally couldn't help crying.

She knew that she could never recover anything.

She once thought that as long as she could get Li Changting, she could have everything.

But now, she found that she was wrong, extremely wrong.

She looked at Li Changting's departing back, her heart filled with regret and despair.

She knew that she would face severe punishment from the law, but she no longer had the courage to resist.

She could only endure it all silently and accept her fate.

After Li Changting left, he went directly to Qiao Yuyue's residence.

He knew that Qiao Yuyue must still be worried about this matter.

He wanted to tell her everything and let her know that he had solved all the problems.

Li Changting walked into Qiao Yuyue's residence with mixed feelings.

"Qiao Xi, the kidnapping was also done by Shen Yue."

When Qiao Yuyue heard the news, she was shocked but also angry and disappointed.

She had never expected that Shen Yue would do such a despicable thing, even sacrificing an innocent child to achieve her goal.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil.

Li Changting felt uncomfortable when he saw Qiao Yuyue's reaction.

He walked forward and gently held Qiao Yuyue's hand: "Qiao Xi, don't worry, I have called the police, and Shen Yue will receive the punishment she deserves."

Qiao Yuyue pulled her hand back. She didn't want to have any physical contact with Li Changting.

"It'll be fine if it's solved."

Although Qiao Yuyue's voice was calm, Li Changting could sense her distance.

His heart ached, but he knew this was something he had to endure.

He turned to leave, but stopped at the door.

"Qiao Xi, I..." He wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back when they reached his lips.

He knew that no matter what he said, it would not be able to heal the scars in Qiao Yuyue's heart.

Qiao Yuyue looked at him and said calmly: "Mr. Li, we shouldn't have any relationship."

Li Changting's heart felt like it was hit by a heavy object, and he knew that he had lost miserably in this fight.

He originally thought that as long as he had enough strength and power, he could protect whoever he wanted to protect, but reality gave him a loud slap in the face.

He turned around helplessly and left Qiao Yuyue's residence with heavy steps.

He walked on the deserted streets, his heart full of regret and loss.

He reflected on his own behavior and found that driven by power and desire, he had lost his original innocence and kindness.

He originally thought that he could protect Qiao Yuyue in his own way, but he didn't expect that he would hurt her even more in the end.

Li Changting walked aimlessly in the night, his heart filled with confusion and anxiety about the future.

He didn't know what to do next, nor did he know whether he could get out of this shadow.

However, just when he was most desperate, a voice sounded in his heart: "You still have a chance, as long as you are willing to change, let go of past mistakes and start over."

This voice was like a guiding light for him, helping him find his way back.

"Dad, you're back." After Li Changting returned home, Li Nianyu ran out.

Li Changting nodded and said nothing.

He was in a really bad mood right now, but it wasn't that he was unwilling to leave Li Nianyu.

"Dad, are you in a bad mood?" Li Nianyu asked Li Changting.

He grew up with his father and he could tell at a glance whether he was in a good mood or not.

Li Changting looked at Li Nianyu's innocent eyes, and the haze in his heart dissipated a little. He squatted down and touched Li Nianyu's head: "No, Dad is just a little tired."
