Chapter 348: One hasty decision
Somewhere hiding from Liu family, Tang Ning and Tang Feng were in a tight pinch. They wanted to fly off to some faraway country, but they noticed Liu family’s guards around the airport, so they knew that Jinhai was looking for them.
They were terrified because Jinhai’s underworld connections were too strong. It was just a matter of time before they were caught.
“Feng. I want revenge for Suyin! We cannot afford to get caught now. Otherwise, we would be dead!”
Tang Feng’s head was aching. He didn’t know where they were supposed to hide. One wrong step and they would end up in the lion’s den, ready to be clawed out.
Every exit in Beijing was monitored to look out for Tang Ning and Tang Feng. Right now, they had no connections that could help them out of this.
They thought Long family could help them, but they themselves were in a big crisis. They already went bankrupt, and Long Yanmei was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly a car stopped in front of them. Some men came out and grabbed Tang Ning and Tang Feng.
“Hey! Where-mmpfh!”
Their mouths covered with cloth, and they were dumped in the car.
Their hearts raced faster than a bullet train.
Liu Jinhai caught us?
When they were brought to a place, they were thrown in front of a man on the ground.
“Welcome.”
A man stepped out of the shadows staring at them with an evil smile.
Tang Ning and Tang Feng were shocked because it was not Jinhai who stood in front of them.
Who is this man? We don’t know him!
Pei Yuan eerily laughed at them.
“W-who are you! Why have you caught us?”
“Why shouldn’t I? After all, you were the ones who sent those men to attack my Nana in Natsukashi, right?”
They froze.
Who was this man who knew about their plan?
And ‘my Nana’? Why is he addressing her like that?
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Tang Feng screamed. “You have got the wrong people.”
Pei Yuan laughed. “When it comes to my Nana, I can never be wrong. You should feel unlucky because I caught before that bastard Liu Jinhai.”
They widened their eyes in shock and looked at each other in confusion.
How does he seem to know everything?
Pei Yuan clicked his tongue. “Tch Tch. You will suffer a hell lot worse here.” His gaze darkened in bloodlust.
“You tried to hurt my Nana. You attempted to kill her. Now you won’t be spared.”
He madly laughed. “See Nana? I am most suitable for you. I already caught your culprits while your useless husband is still looking for them! Hahaha…”
Tang Ning was dumbfounded.
This man….he loves Nana?
Suddenly her brain churned with a plan. She thought this was a chance to save themselves.
“You…you love Nana, right?”
Pei Yuan glared at her. He raised his hand and slapped her across her face. “Don’t take her name with your filthy mouth!”
“Ah…” Her cheek burned in pain.
“Ning!” Tang Feng exclaimed.
She cursed him in her mind. She still smiled and said, “You are making a mistake. We both hate Liu Jinhai. This is the time to join hands. Isn’t an enemy’s enemy, your friend?”
“Ho…interesting. You hate Jinhai, but you attacked my Nana.”
Tang Feng quickly understood his wife’s intentions. “That was all to hurt Liu Jinhai! She is his wife. We thought if we hurt her, then that would be the biggest blow to him.”
“Heh! You can’t fool me. You hate Nana because you think she destroyed your daughter’s life.”
The mention of Suyin froze them.
Tang Ning’s blood boiled in anger. “Yes, we still think she did! But more than her, it’s Liu Jinhai who is the culprit. Look. We both hate him. If we join hands, then you can have Nana, and we will get our revenge from Jinhai. We also want to see him destroyed! We will both get what we want.”
Pei Yuan stared at them.
“And I should trust you? Heh!”
“You have already caught us. We have nowhere to run anyway. You can kill us anytime you want.”
He said nothing.
Tang Feng glanced at her and then at him.
“So what, do you say?”
—
When Shin was working in his cabin, as usual, he heard a knock at the door.
“Come in.”
The figure stepped in, but when it said nothing, Shin frowned.
“What is it-“
He froze when he saw Mu Shuchun.
“What are you doing here? Didn’t I say-“
“Shin, why can’t we talk just once?” Mu Shuchun said.
“Talk? Did you leave anything between us that could be sorted out by talking?”
Mu, Shuchun cried. “Shin. Please try to understand. It happened so long ago. Why can’t we forget everything and start over again. I really love you, Shin.”
Shin banged his hand on the table and stood up furiously. “And yet you could abort our child! Oh, I see now how much you love me.”
Mu Shuchun clutched her dress. “Shin. Why can’t you understand! I was only twenty-one! My whole modeling career was in front of me. I was still a kid myself. How could I have given birth to a child?”
Shin laughed. “And me? Was I any older? I was also just twenty-one! Did I know anything about being a father? Did I know anything about a child’s responsibility? Why do you want to only paint yourself as a pitiful young girl? It was just as difficult for me! And instead of talking it out and thinking about it more, you just went ahead and aborted it. Who the fuck do you think you are? I was the father! I had as much right as you to decide on the child’s future.”
“Shin…I just got scared.”
“Enough! It was scary to be such young parents, and I understand that, but I was not going to abandon you. I was not going to shirk my responsibilities. Did you think so less of me?”
“No…”
“Then who gave you the right to kill an innocent child? If you didn’t want it, then fine. I could have raised him or her by myself. I wouldn’t have forced you to be a mother just because you gave birth. But you just went ahead…”
Suddenly Shin noticed someone standing from the corner of his eyes.
He widened his eyes as he saw Huian near the door.
She stiffened when he noticed her. “I…I am sorry. I will come back later.”
