Chapter 904
Xu Jiamu paused, then added, "Sorry to trouble you, Mrs . Song, but could you please close the door behind you on your way out . "
He turned around and headed for the stairs without the slightest hint of wanting to compromise .
Song Xiangsi hurriedly reached her hand out and pulled his arm .
That familiar warm sensation made Xu Jiamu's entire body numb . After two seconds, he flung her hand away .
This time, Song Xiangsi tightly grabbed onto him with both hands . She didn't know if it was because she was scared or worried, but her hand started to shiver . "I don't have time to find someone else to help . The doctor says that they don't have enough in their blood bank and that the situation is dire . Someone could die at any time! Please, I'm begging you! Please, help me just this once, okay?"
All of a sudden, Xu Jiamu chuckled as though he had just heard the funniest joke . He turned his head and looked right at Song Xiangsi, mocking her, "Mrs . Song, if I remember correctly, three hours ago you told me that there was nothing for us to talk about . Since there's nothing to say, Mrs . Song, what reason is there for me to save someone who I have nothing to do with?"
Perhaps it was because Xu Jiamu's voice was so determined, Song Xiangsi really felt that he wasn't going to help her . Tears rolled down her face, and she tightened her grip onto his hand . Her eyes turned erratically, as though she couldn't find any words to convince him . In the end, she sounded barely coherent when she said, "Can you please . . . Can you please do it for me because of the eight years we spent together . . . "
"Eight years?"
In the afternoon, he was the first to mention their past, but she didn't care at all for their old love . Now, she was bringing it up again for another man . . .
Xu Jiamu scoffed again, but there was an unrestrained tinge of sadness beneath his eyes . Soon enough, his gaze turned sharp and overbearing . He turned his head and stared at Song Xiangsi, then paused with each word as he said, "Those eight years were just a business deal, wasn't it? You said, 'a deal settled with money, after which we owed nothing to the other party . ' Mrs . Song you're now looking for tips?"
As Xu Jiamu said this with a little haste, he suddenly shut his eyes and took a deep breath . His hands balled up into tight fists .
After two seconds, he opened his eyes and stared into Song Xiangsi's eyes with a freezing glare . "What's more . . . Mrs . Song, I'd like to ask you, why exactly should I help a woman who ruthlessly aborted my child to leave me?"
As he said this, he forcefully pulled his arm away and said with a cold and hardened voice, "Mrs . Song, I won't bother to see you out . "
With that, he made his way up the stairs .
"Xu Jiamu!" Song Xiangsi suddenly cried his name . She stared at his back as he walked up the steps . "It's just a promise to donate blood at the hospital . I'll do anything for you!"
Xu Jiamu's footsteps came to a sudden stop .
"I won't help you for free . Make a deal with me . I promise to do one thing for you . It doesn't matter what you request, I'll do my best to fulfill it . How about that?"
Eleven years ago, she sold herself for her father .
Eleven years later, she would make a deal for her husband .
Song Xiangsi was really a passionate person, but her love was never reserved for him .
Xu Jiamu had no idea where his anger came from . He suddenly turned around and walked back down the stairs .
