Xu Rui was at his wit's end. To save his son, he took a large sum of money from his company, causing the employees in his company to be alarmed and they jumped over to another company. Hence, many contracts had to be stopped due to the lack of manpower. Aside from that, he also had to pay a large sum as the penalty for the contracts.

　　Furthermore, Xu Rui has borrowed money from loan sharks due to his gambling, which the interest has acc.u.mulated to millions, not to mention that his loan with the bank has come due. With so many debts together, Xu Rui finally collapsed from the pressure.

　　Hence, he thought of death, so he called Jiang Qinghan before he committed suicide.

　　He couldn't let go of Jiang Qinghan since anything that humans cannot obtain were always the most precious. When Jiang Qinghan heard that Xu Rui wanted to commit suicide, she immediately changed her clothes. She rushed over, hoping to convince Xu Rui to give up on committing suicide by playing the emotional card.

　　Although Jiang Qinghan did not have any feelings for Xu Rui, she still used him as a s.h.i.+eld to prevent other guys from hara.s.sing her.

　　So it was inevitable for there to be some feelings after such an extended interaction. Xu Rui has always been treating her well, and as a friend, she can't watch Xu Rui take his life.

　　Hence, she told a white lie out of panic after seeing how Xu Rui was so determined to die.

　　"Yes! As long as you don't give up on your life, I'm willing to start afresh with you. We will face it together. You're smart and outstanding, so I believe that you can stage a comeback!" Jiang Qinghan tried her best to organise her words as she tried to change Xu Rui's mind.

　　Hiding in the bush, Su Tao did not know that Jiang Qinghan only said those words to make Xu Rui change his mind. Hence, his heart crumbled upon hearing them. It felt like knives were slicing into his heart. He had underestimated his feelings for Jiang Qinghan. Perhaps he was attracted to her appearance in the beginning, but after all their experiences together, Jiang Qinghan had been engraved deep in his heart.

　　The fact that Jiang Qinghan formally promised to start a relations.h.i.+p with Xu Rui nearly made Su Tao vomit blood.

　　"b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l, that Xu Rui is truly a nuisance. If he dies, then he dies. Why is he using it to obtain compa.s.sion? What a b.l.o.o.d.y coward!" At this moment, Su Tao's hatred of Xu Rui has gone over the edge. He even wanted the explosive to go off for Xu Rui to go to h.e.l.l.

　　"I know that you're lying to me!" Xu Rui mumbled as he unreasonably said, "I'm a man, and even if I die, I want to die with dignity!"

　　"I can swear to the heavens!" Jiang Qinghan bit on her lips as she raised her hand under the moonlight. "If what I said was false, then may the G.o.ds strike me dead with lightning!"

　　Hearing Jiang Qinghan's words, Xu Rui widened his mouth. At this moment, his intention to die had disappeared.

　　Su Tao rolled his eyes and he nearly fainted from those words.

　　He tried his best to calm himself down, and he knew that he couldn't give the two of them any room to talk in case of feelings budding from this event. Hence, he knew he had to let Xu Rui get rid of any intentions to suicide.

　　Su Tao cautiously walked over to the edge of the river and tried his best to stay hidden in the bush.

　　"Xu Rui, get down quickly. I'm here, waiting for you!" Jiang Qinghan softly persuaded. "Not matter what difficulty you face, don't give up on the world. Your son is still waiting for you, and your parents need you. If you leave, you will leave too many things behind in the world. Even if you're on the other side, you won't be at peace."

　　"I…" Xu Rui finally took a step towards Jiang Qinghan.

　　But at this moment, a silhouette jumped out from the side and pounced at Xu Rui.
