âAaargh! It hurts!â
Mo Nanfengâs face tightened and he quickly begged for mercy. âLet me go, Weixi!â
âLet you go?â Ji Weixi sneered. âThen why didnât you let me go?â
âI... Bro Dong forced me!â Mo Nanfeng hugged Ji Weixiâs left, shaking his head and begging while dumping the blame to the unconscious Bro Dong. âWeixi, please, let me go! I promise I wonât trouble you anymore! Iâll vanish from your sight! I swear! Okay?â
Let him go?
What a joke!
He had kidnapped her without regard of their old ties, even slapping her and cutting her throat.
And most of all, he had made Li Shaoling kneel!
After committing every atrocity there was, he had the face to ask her to let him go?
Still, Ji Weixi suddenly smiled dazzlingly after getting an idea. âAlright, Iâll let you go.â
Mo Nanfeng promptly breathed a sigh of relief inside, thinking that Ji Weixi is still soft.
However, that was when Ji Weixi added, âIf you kneel on the floor and bark like a dog, Iâll let you go.â
âW-what?!â Mo Nanfengâs eyes were bulging in disbelief.
âWhat? You canât even do that?â Ji Weixi blinked innocently. âForget it then.â
She turned to left, but Mo Nanfeng caught her. âDonât go, Weixi!â
So what if he barked after all? He could get his freedom!
When he rises again in the future, it would not be late for him to dominate her and destroy Li Shaoling!
Clenching his teeth, Mo Nanfeng repressed his embarrassment and the building hate inside and got down on his knees.
âArf-arf-arf!â
The barks echoed resoundingly within the factory.
âPfftââ Lian Yuming could not stifle a laugh.
At the same time, after kneeling and barking, Mo Nanfeng looked at Ji Weixi with a begging, hopeful look again.
He did not expect her to giggle and then laugh out loud, before looking down on him in disdain. âYouâre so stupid, Mo Nanfeng,â she mocked without holding back. âDid you think I would let you go just because you barked like a dog?â
Her smile soon faded, however, and her eyes suddenly sharpened as she slapped down on his face.
Before he could react, she slapped him again.
After that, she mustered every bit of strength she had to rain more vicious, wild slaps down at him.
Mo Nanfeng was now less a human than a pig than him.
Nearby, Lian Yuming was looking shocked. He went to Li Shaoling and quietly asked, âBro... are you just going to let her... hit him?â
The horror.
He had thought that Ji Weixi wouldnât be capable of unmaidenlike things since she was so beautiful.
But now, she was slapping a man like a doll.
How frightening.
Meanwhile, Li Shaoling said nothing and kept watching as Ji Weixi tortured away, mesmerized.
Suddenly, his brow tightened and he closed his eyes in pain, while his face turned white.
His palm was hurting as if his heart was stabbed.
After Ji Weixi was done with Mo Nanfeng, she shook her palm and turned away.
Mo Nanfengâs face was absolutely horrible, no longer recognizable from the swelling as he bled profusely from the nose.
On the other hand, the blood over Li Shaolingâs palm was slowly drying. Ji Weixi felt as if her heart was stabbed as well when she saw the terrible wound.
She helped him into the car, but then saw that Mo Nanfeng had just got up and became a little worried.
Nonetheless, Lian Yuming tapped himself on the chest. âRelax, sister-in-law. I already called for my other bros to come take care of him! Weâll take him to the police when weâre done, and heâs going to be in prison for at least ten years for kidnapping and physical harm with ill intent!â
âGood.â
Ji Weixi breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Li Shaoling.
She found him even paler, and sweating a lot from his forehead.
She rubbed it away, and he opened his eyes, although his gaze was a little empty.
Ji Weixi was about to speak when he put his arms around her.
âGive me a hug... it wonât hurt anymore if we hug...â
Ji Weixi sniffled. Her tears almost started falling again and she held him firmly. âLi Shaoling, you idiot!â
The biggest idiot in the whole wide world!
He knew that they were never going to spare her, and yet would do something so violent to himself.
Didnât he know how much that hurts her?!
Scumbag!
Lian Yuming watched as they embraced each other and rolled his eyes.
***
In a private hospital.
The doctor was shocked at Li Shaolingâs wound.
Ji Weixiâs heart tightened at that. âHowâs his hand, doctor?â
âHis metacarpals are broken and it would take a year to heal... and it is possible that the hand might be disabled.â
Ji Weixi felt her breath leave her lungs and she stared at Li Shaoling dumbfoundedly.
However, he was simply looking at it, unaffected and composure even though it was all wrapped up like a dumpling.
Ji Weixi tried to stop her tears, but it still flowed without stopping.
She hated that crybaby part of herself.
Her face felt a cool touch all of sudden, however.
Li Shaoling was using his good hand to wipe away her tears.
He smiled helplessly. âCrybaby.â
Ji Weixi held him, her tears falling over his shirt. âDonât you know your hand could be lost?â
âI know.â
âThen how could you be so calm?!â Annoyed, she punched him albeit gently, afraid that she would hurt him.
âIâm not just calm; Iâm happy.â
Ji Weixi looked up from his arms, astonished as Li Shaoling stroked her face.
âThat way, you can take care of me for the rest of my life.â He said quietly and tenderly.
This great degenerate!
Was it okay to keep her by getting hurt?!
Ji Weixi snorted, and tried to scare him. âI wonât take responsibility!â
Even so, he was still smiling instead of getting angry, even patting her head. âThen Iâll cry to you every day. Weâll see if that hurts you.â
Li Shaoling, crying???
It would be a sight worth seeing.
Still, Ji Weixi muttered, âIâm not hurt.â
âThen why are you crying?â
âI... itâs because you scared me.â
Li Shoaling hugged her again overbearingly. âYou feel hurt because of me. Admit it.â
Tsk!
No, she wouldnât!
***
Li Shaolingâs phone rang when the two got on the car.
âShaoling! I hate you so much! Iâve been waiting for you so long, why havenât you arrived yet?â
The woman was throwing a girly fit over the call, and Ji Weixi felt as if she had just awoken from a dream.
It was as if a pail of cold water was thrown over her head, spreading a chill over her entire body and leaving her frozen stiff.
Be that as it may, Li Shaoling flatly replied, âI had some stuff over here. Iâll have someone get you.â
With that, he hung up while holding Ji Weixi, giving her a kiss as if he would not let her run off.
Still, her sadness was about to drown her like never before. She had almost forgotten that Li Shaoling still had a former flame waiting for him at the airport.
Li Shaoling did not meet her because he came to save her.
So, was that good or bad?
