There were so many relatives in the living room. Youngest aunt would certainly not want them to know that the mistress her husband had been keeping was right outside at the door…… However, if she just left them be, the fuss that this young homewrecker was making would certainly attract the attention of the people inside the house over time……
Xiang Wan was a little at a loss but decided that she shouldn’t blow the matter up. She took out her mobile phone and decided to take a video of them instead.
At the very least, the video could be used as proof that Xing Yuanhang had committed adultery……
“Lower your volume!” Xing Yuanhang didn’t want the girl to create a scene as well.
He stared at the girl and suddenly covered her mouth with his hands. “Just go back first, alright?” His tone sounded that he was eagerly trying to coax her. “I will certainly make good of my promise. We still have long days together ahead. Let’s not fall out with each other over this trivial matter, okay?”
The young woman decided to keep her mouth shut and shook her head stubbornly to show her stance.
Xing Yuanhang was a little irritated and his tone gradually turned cold.
“Let me warn you. If you continue your act, it’s not going to be beneficial to anyone. So, don’t force me. You get it?”
The girl still shook her head.
And when she noticed that Xing Yuanhang’s gaze started to get dim, she nodded.
Xing Yuanhang put his hands down slowly.
The girl’s eyes were already welling with tears. She bit her lip and started talking again.
“Tell me, you’ve never thought about marrying me…… right? It’s simply because I’m pregnant with your child and kept pestering you that you didn’t know what to do and just kept dragging on…… You still love her, don’t you?”
Xing Yuanhang sounded anxious and restless. “What’s the use of saying this now?”
“Oh?” she questioned him. “So what should I say then?”
Xing Yuanhang kept quiet.
“People have been telling me that you’re just looking for a fling,” said the girl, “so is it true that you’re really toying with me? The one who’s inside your heart all along is that old woman? Or rather, what did she do this time to seduce you again?”
Xing Yuanhang seemed a little angry. “Just shut up!”
“Why should I shut up? On what basis? Yuanhang, do you know how hurt I am? I love you so much that I don’t care if you love me back. I’ve given all of myself to you and are pregnant with your child…… But yet I could only look on at you and that old woman have a family gathering and all of you look so happy together…… You need to know this—this is supposed to be our first Lunar New Year together. Yuanhang, I want to celebrate the Lunar New Year with you. Although I’m not a part of your past, I don’t want to be absent in your future. From now on, I want to celebrate and spend every single festival with you……”
Xiang Wan’s body twitched and felt goosebumps all over.
This young girl was totally a b*tch.
What gave her the courage to be a homewrecker and behave in a way that she was not at fault at all? In the name of love, she destroyed a family and yet she behaved as if she had suffered from injustice?
Xiang Wan couldn’t stand these kind of people.
She had thought that Xing Yuanhang would also break out in goosebumps.
However……
Well, she was wrong.
Some men liked such gentle and soft women, and did not really like women who were tough and difficult to control. Xing Yuanhang seemed to be moved by those words and suddenly embraced that girl and patted her back. He was coaxing her and seemed to have forgotten that he was outside the gates of his house.
“I’m sorry that I’ve let you suffered.”
“Boohoo…… You’re bullying me. You only know how to bully me……”
“Yes, yes, yes, I shouldn’t have bullied you. Silly girl, how ’bout this? I’ll give you a present as my apology to you?”
“What present?”
“This present is called—the present you will like.”
“Mm? Come on, I don’t understand.”
“Hurhur, it means that I’ll buy the item that you want me to.”
“Really?”
“Really……”
Xiang Wan felt that her ears were going deaf.
She couldn’t continue listening on anymore. She was worried that she couldn’t continue shooting the video.
That was so bleeping blatant of them.
Shameless to the extreme.
She told herself that she must make sure that youngest aunt would divorce this man!
However, even if they got divorced, she didn’t want to let that scum and that homewrecker have it easy……
Xiang Wan gasped softly, enduring the uncomfortable feeling, she continued to shoot the video.
After the two of them spoke softly for a while, Xing Yuanhang wanted to send the girl back home.
Unexpectedly, that girl refused to do so.
Her earlier tearful and grieved face suddenly changed when she heard that he wanted to send her back.
“You’re coaxing me earlier so as to make me leave this place, right?”
“.……”
“I’ve already made up my mind that I must enter your house today……”
“No!” Xing Yuanhang directly brushed her off then started to coax her again. “There’s so many people in the house. Are you preparing to make me lose my face?”
“What did you say? Lose face?” The girl found it inconceivable to hear this word coming from him. She looked at him with a look that seemed to scream ‘my love has been tainted’.
“You are lying to me right? The love you spoke of are fake as you only said that to coax me. In the past, you coaxed me so you can bed me. Now, you coax me to make me leave so I won’t destroy your family……”
“That’s not what I mean, no……” Xing Yuanhang sounded weak.
His voice was filled with powerlessness and helplessness.
“There’s too many relatives in my home right now. If this matter blew out of proportion, things are going to turn ugly.”
“Isn’t it better if things got ugly?” The girl took his arm. “It’s okay, I’ll be with you. So what if we got all the blame? As long as we love each other, why do we need to bother with what others say?”
As she said that, before Xing Yuanhang could answer, a glint of excitement flashed past her eyes. “Yuanhang, I feel that today is a good day. I’ve decided…… Tonight, we’ll make an announcement in front of everyone, in front of the old woman. We’ll announce our relationship and our unborn baby. We’ll announce that the one you love is me that the old woman should get out of our lives.”
“Are you crazy?” Xing Yuanhang looked torn and as if he had seen a lunatic.
“I’m crazy? Let’s just get this done by today. I’ll help you make the decision in case you’ll hesitate again!”
The girl snorted and wanted to walk into the house.
That startled Xiang Wan as she was hiding behind the gates. She was worried that she would be found out.
Xing Yuanhang quickly took two to three steps and stopped the girl. Coaxing could no longer work and he couldn’t scold her either. Hence, he felt that he was in a fix! The girl refused to back down and struggled in his arms. Xiang Wan concluded from watching the behavior of the girl, that she really was a formidable homewrecker…… Xing Yuanhang kept trying to persuade and convince her not to. That went on for about 30 seconds and the girl seemed to be agitated as her eyes turned red……
Suddenly, she turned around and as shown in Xiang Wan’s video, she was as if looking directly at her.
A flash of cold light appeared in her wide-opened eyes, giving off a savage and evil feeling.
It was as if she was a ferocious ghost that could eat humans!
Xiang Wan’s heart missed a beat. She thought she was hallucinating……
The next moment, the girl opened her mouth and bit Xing Yuanhang’s neck.
“AH!” Xiang Wan let out a scream.
The movement and the expression; she was too familiar with it.
That was exactly how the perpetrators in the ‘zombie’ cases had behaved.
Her scream made Xing Yuanhang dumbfounded but it didn’t make the girl let go of him.
She looked like a beast as she bit Xing Yuanhang’s neck. Under the street light, her eyes were glowing in excitement, she looked like a vampire who had a desperate desire at the sight of blood……
“Ahhhh! Let…… let go!”
Xing Yuanhang tried to grab her hand but as she was pregnant, he didn’t use a lot of strength.
But the young girl bit so hard he couldn’t take it anymore, and decided to strangle her neck with strength.
“Stop this now! We can talk over this nicely!”
He used a lot of strength.
So much strength that it seemed like the girl’s slim neck could be broken at any moment.
However, the girl still bit him without a sign that she would let go. No matter how much strength he was using, her teeth wouldn’t budge.
Xing Yuanhang was now crying and groaning in pain. Xiang Wan dashed out to him without further ado.
By then, the people in the house started to come out for a look. Bai Muchuan was walking in front.
Xiang Wan gave him a glance. “Quick! Do something about her. She seemed to have taken some drugs……”
Some relatives went screaming at that sight, some were gasping and talking amongst themselves. Bai Muchuan walked over with a grim expression. Without a word, he directly dealt a hit on the girl’s neck with his hand.
The girl let out a soft groan.
She lost consciousness and gradually fell.
Xing Yuanhang quickly held her and touched his neck which was now full of blood.
“Where’s the chauffeur? Hurry and get the car!”
……
Now that this happened, there was no way the Reunion Dinner could continue.
Youngest aunt, Tan Yuechun, was standing at the steps of the door as she looked at the man who had blood all over, as well as the unconscious girl whom he was holding.
Her clothes were fluttering about in the cold winds like a statue.
She had heard about her husband’s infidelity with this girl for a long time from her contacts.
But hearing it from others and witnessing it herself were two different matters altogether.
No one could bear such a blow……
Xiang Wan’s mom walked to her youngest sister and squeezed her shoulders. “You’ll get over it.”
Tan Yuechun did not look at her and her voice sounded soft and faraway. “Sis, back then, were you as sad as I am today?”
Xiang Wan’s mom’s face dimmed slightly and she didn’t give a reply.
Tan Yuechun lowered her head and her voice sounded a little hoarse. “I’m really sorry that day. I was too agitated…… No, I felt like I was about to go crazy during this period. I’ve completely lost my sanity. I knew very well that it was impossible between you and him. I was simply making use of the situation to vent my frustrations…… Sis, please forgive me. I’m crazy…… I’m really about to go crazy……”
Xiang Wan’s mom held her gently. “I’m not angry with you.”
“That’s reassuring to know.” Tan Yuechun kept quiet for a moment. “Do you know? This is my first time seeing her in person, the first time.”
“.……”
“She’s so young. She seemed about Feifei’s age, so young, so pretty. It’s the age where one could behave wilfully……” Tan Yuechun put a hand on her face then slowly turned to look at Xiang Wan’s mom with a gaze that felt somewhat creepy. “Am I old? Sis, have I become old and ugly?”
Xiang Wan’s mom puffed a sigh. “You’re not old. You’re still very beautiful and look young……”
“No, I’m old…… I’m old…… Do you know how long I have not enjoyed a sexual relationship with him?”
This topic was too personal. Xiang Wan’s mom was dumbfounded for a moment.
“There’s not even once this year.” Tan Yuechun snorted a bitter laugh. “Not even once. He has spent all his energy outside……”
Xiang Wan was very worried about her youngest aunt but at this moment, she knew that the more urgent thing now was that she had to assist Bai Muchuan in his work.
They informed the Criminal Investigation Unit in Jin City and would be following both victim and perpetrator to the hospital.
“Mom, I’ll come pick you up later.”
Xiang Wan said to her mom and was about to get into Bai Muchuan’s car when his mobile phone rang.
“Hello!” He took the call.
“Boss!” It was Salimu. “I’ve found it! I’ve found it!”
