My sister regretted sending me to the correctional facility.

Lin Xia appeared.

Her appearance drew everyone's attention.

Lin Xia was like a shining light; she was so beautiful, glamorous, and confident.

Her words, "You are not allowed to kowtow," gradually pieced together my shattered dignity.

Lin Xia exuded an aura of power, walking up to Gu Yao like a queen.

She said calmly, "Gu Yao, what you've done is a bit too much."

"Lu Yi is a man, and also a person. What good does it do you to trample on his dignity like this?"

"I'll pay back the money he owes you! But he's not allowed to kowtow to me!"

Perhaps it was because Lin Xia came out to challenge Gu Yao.

Gu Yao had initially tacitly approved of Zhao Ming's actions.

She suddenly got angry.

"Heh heh, Lu Yi owes me more than just this!"

"If he's willing to kneel down and kowtow to me to apologize, that's his freedom, it's none of your business!"

The atmosphere on the field was tense, and everyone looked surprised.

Perhaps they didn't expect that everyone here tonight would be attending a banquet, dressed very elegantly and with such high social standing.

The result is that they ended up arguing here because of someone as awful as me.

In the eyes of the general public, someone like me isn't worth arguing about.

However, Zhao Ming did not say a word at this moment.

Because he saw Lin Xia arrive.

As Lin Xia was his business partner, Zhao Ming absolutely did not want to have a conflict with her at this time.

So when Gu Yao and Lin Xia were arguing.

Zhao Ming fell silent, a rare occurrence.

He stood aside, silent, afraid of getting involved in the battle between the two women.

"Lu Yi! Stand up!"

Lin Xia gave me direct orders.

This was the first time I had experienced Lin Xia's tough attitude towards me.

I decided to listen to Lin Xia and get up from the ground.

But Gu Yao scolded me again.

"Lu Yi! You're not allowed to get up!"

Gu Yao's words made me kneel on the ground again.

Lin Xia said, "Lu Yi, get this straight, whose side are you on now!"

I nodded silently and began to prepare.

But Gu Yao said, "Lu Yi, I still have a heart condition. If you get up and provoke me, my heart condition will relapse, and you will be the culprit."

I knelt down on the ground again with a thud.

At this moment, my face looked terrible. Lin Xia and Gu Yao told me to get up and kneel down, respectively.

This is a difficult situation for me.

Moreover, what they both said gave me a reason to stand up and kneel down.

Finally, I was forced into a half-bent position, neither standing up completely nor kneeling down.

This feeling is very uncomfortable for me. I am not only tormented by them, but also tormented by everyone watching them.

My dignity was trampled on again.

Someone was filming me with their phone.

I know very well that these shameful videos will be an indelible stain on my life.

But I have no choice. One of these two women decides my future, and the other controls my past.

I can't listen to everything they say, but I have no choice but to obey.

Lin Xia saw how badly I had been tortured.

She said with some concern, "Lu Yi, please put your clothes on first."

But Gu Yao immediately refused.

"No way! I bought these clothes for him, and he's not allowed to wear them unless I gave his permission!"

My hand holding the clothes was suspended in mid-air.

Finally, it was placed on the ground in a rather awkward and helpless manner.

Lin Xia raised an eyebrow, revealing a displeased expression: "Gu Yao, I'll buy all these clothes! And I'll pay double the price!"

"Lu Yi, put all these clothes on!"

"This is an order!"

This time I didn't rush to grab my clothes.

Instead, he glanced at Gu Yao.

Because I knew that Gu Yao would definitely not agree.

Sure enough, Gu Yao said, "Who said I was going to sell you these clothes! I'm not selling them, and I'm not letting him wear them!"

"I won't let him put his clothes on unless he continues kneeling on the ground!"

Lin Xia's expression turned angry; she felt that Gu Yao was simply unreasonable.

She gave me a somewhat resentful look.

"Lu Yi, you've had a crush on this kind of woman for so many years?"

"does it worth?"

His question, "Is it worth it?" completely stunned me.

Moreover, Lin Xia didn't hide anything from others when she said this.

Everyone else heard it, including Gu Yao and Zhao Ming.

Gu Yao's expression clearly became flustered and bewildered.

She seemed to resist hearing those words.

I glanced at Gu Yao's reaction.

Then slowly say, "It was worth it before, but it's not worth it now."

He said this in front of everyone.

I feel a bit more relieved.

Even if I'm not wearing any clothes right now.

But I didn't feel humiliated or embarrassed.

Because at this moment, I truly made peace with the past.

Tonight, in front of everyone, Gu Yao made me take off all my clothes, and I suffered humiliation and ridicule.

But I think I've repaid everything I owed Gu Yao at this moment.

I took off all the clothes she had bought for me.

From now on, she can no longer order me around.

"Lin Xia, I want to go home."

Although I have no home.

But in front of everyone.

I still want to retain the last bit of dignity.

At this moment, Zhao Ming said, "Hehe, Lu Yi, do you even have a home? You don't even have a house. You used to rely on Gu Yao to help you out and let you live at her house!"

"You're saying you want to go home now, but where do you plan to go back to?"

I gave Zhao Ming a long look.

Zhao Ming ruthlessly tore away my last fig leaf.

I was ridiculed by everyone.

That's when they realized that I was a homeless person without a home.

Zhao Ming said, "Lu Yi, don't say I'm ungrateful. I have an underground garage at home that you can stay in temporarily."

His hypocritical manner disgusted and made me feel nauseous.

I silently shook my head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."

After saying that.

I walked outside naked, wearing only my underwear, looking incredibly dashing.

Although many people looked at me strangely along the way.

In their eyes, I might be crazy, or mentally ill.

But at this moment, I finally severed ties with everything from the past.

What I owe Gu Yao will be wiped clean tonight.

From now on.

I need to start finding myself again.

Put the clothes you took off tonight back on, one by one.

I will gradually make up for the dignity I lost!

After I left the banquet.

Lin Xia also ran out behind me.

I looked at her curiously: "Aren't you going to the banquet?"

Lin Xia smiled and said, "I won't participate."

I said, "You don't have to give up the banquet for me. I can find a place outside to wait for you."

Lin Xia said, "I'm afraid you'll catch a cold!"

talking.

Lin Xia took off her coat and covered me with it.

Although her coat was small and expensive, it ripped immediately when I put it on.

But Lin Xia didn't care at all.

She chuckled and said, "Lu Yi, you were quite the man at the very end tonight!"

I smiled after hearing the compliment.

This is me in front of Gu Yao.

Words I never hear.
