Xie He’s gaze was fixed on Liang Chengshan. All of a sudden, he rolled out of bed and stole the gun from Kenny’s waist before the other could respond. He pointed the gun at him!
Kenny’s expression changed dramatically. He used his body to shield Liang Chengshan. With a cold voice, he shouted, “Put down the gun!”
Xie He held the cold gun in his hand. His hands shook slightly and there was a deeply-rooted hatred flashing in his eyes. At the same time, there was a profound fear and despair mixed in. He had lost…he couldn’t kill this person. At the very least, he could kill himself.
He didn’t want to go back to that cold room ever again. He didn’t want to lose his memories and his dignity again. He didn’t want to be f*cked by the person he hated the most or tell that person he loved him.
The corner of his lips quirked up and he sneered. “Don’t even think of locking me up there again.” The gun in his hand swerved and he pointed the muzzle to his own head. All that was left was to pull the trigger.
Liang Chengshan’s eyes had been on Xie He the whole time. Everything turned fuzzy. For a moment he even thought…that he would pay for his wrongdoings with his life. But soon after, he saw Xie He point the gun at himself. The second Xie He turned his wrist, Liang Chengshan pounced over!
He reacted before he could think. An explosive strength came out of his weak body. He didn’t care about his wounds tearing open. He used all his strength to launch himself at Xie He!
A bang echoed through the room. The bullet grazed the top of Xie He’s head and shot into the wall.
Liang Chengshan’s wounds throbbed violently in pain. But he couldn’t feel them. The pain in his heart was worse than the pain from his injuries. This was his fault. It was he who had forced Xie He into such a state….
He coughed, his voice unsteady and pained. “No, I won’t lock you up again. I won’t….”
Kenny was frightened into breaking out into a cold sweat. He walked over in long strides and snatched his gun back before restraining Xie He’s hands.
Frenzied despair appeared in Xie He’s eyes. He screamed at Liang Chengshan. “Kill me! Kill me, ah! If you have the balls, kill me!”
Liang Chengshan could taste blood in his mouth. He took in Xie He’s crazy, pained expression…. He had been the one to inflict that pain. The eight months in the darkness had completely ruined Xie He.
A long time later, Liang Chengshan managed to press down the bitter sorrow in his eyes. He slowly said, “Didn’t you want revenge…? How will you get revenge if you die?”
Xie He glared at him, eyes full of hostility.
Liang Chengshan grabbed his ankle. With a clack, the anklet was removed. He threw it to the ground and then said, “Go. I’ll wait for you to come kill me.”
Only by living will you have another chance to kill me.
Xie He’s expression changed slightly. He looked at Liang Chengshan uncertainly. He was actually letting him go? He wasn’t going to keep torturing and imprisoning him?
Kenny screamed, “Boss!” How could Boss let Xie He go?!
Liang Chengshan coughed quietly. “Let him go.”
Xie He slowly got up from the ground. He looked into Liang Chengshan’s eyes. There seemed to be a complicated emotion filling those dark, intense eyes. There wasn’t just love…but something else as well…. Xie He took a step back.
Leaving just like that? He really didn’t want to…. He had paid so much but he still hadn’t been able to kill this person. However, even if he stayed, he wouldn’t be able to kill him anyway.
Xie He turned and ran out. Indeed, no one stopped him.
Liang Chengshan watched Xie He leave. He seemed to age many years at that moment. For the sake of having this person, he had once committed many wrongs. But now, he could not continue to make the same mistakes. He could not continue to hurt him.
Since Xie He had regained his memories, he had lost him….
How could he bear to lock Xie He back up? That had been the thing he most regretted in this life of his.
Liang Chengshan said to Kenny, “Have people tail him secretly&#k2026;.. Don’t&#k2026;let anything happen to him.” After saying this, he couldn’t hold on any longer and fainted.
……………………
Xie He ran out of Liang Chengshan’s manor. His anklet had been taken off. Not only did Liang Chengshan not punish him, he had even let him go.
After leaving that place, he was at a loss. However, there was no glee from having escaped death. There was only deep confusion.
【444:Host dada, Liang Chengshan let you go. What are you going to do now? Q_Q】
【Xie He:It’s no surprise that he’s let me go. But Uncle Liang has always been very cautious. I’ll have to shake off the people he’s got tailing me if I want to go raise Little Brother Liang’s Favourability Value. 8000 experience points are waving at me right now. Smile.JPG】
【444:(⊙o⊙) Oh!】
【Xie He:Baby, don’t ‘oh’ me. Lead the way. 🙂 】
【444:Mn. O(∩_∩)O~】
Xie He walked for a while. He managed to flag down a car when he reached the streets. The kindhearted driver dropped him off in the city. Xie He arrived at a major street and entered a shopping mall. By the time he came out, he had successfully thrown off the people tailing him.
However, when he passed through the Rodney Family’s territory, he was recognized.
There had been an uproar when Xie He had attempted to assassinate Liang Chengshan on their wedding day. This news could not be hidden. Many people recognized Xie He now. Very quickly, they found out that Liang Chengshan didn’t kill Xie He and had even let him go unharmed. Many people began to keep close attention to Xie He.
Regardless of Liang Chengshan’s current attitude, they would first capture Xie He and think about it later!
Liang Ze just so happened to be in the area. As soon as he had gotten hold of news regarding Xie He, he rushed over personally.
Xie He wanted to go back to Uncle Hall’s. He wasn’t in good shape right now. However, he hadn’t walked for very long when he noticed that several tattooed dark-skinned men were blocking his way. His expression changed dramatically and he turned, wanting to leave. But he ended up seeing Liang Ze turn the corner. The other faced him with a derisive smile. “It’s been a while.”
Xie He stared at Liang Ze, lost in a daze. He could see the hatred in Liang Ze’s eyes…. When he recalled how he had used Liang Ze, as well as how he hadn’t hesitated to kill the other when he had lost his memories, he immediately understood that Liang Ze had not come with kind intentions. Xie He turned around abruptly and threw a punch at the man behind him. He needed to escape right now!
However, because he had been locked up for several days, his body was very weak. He was no match for these men. Very quickly, he suffered a punch to the stomach and was pressed down onto the ground.
Xie He felt his stomach roll. His face twitched from the pain. He looked up to see Liang Ze sneering at him. “Looks like you also know that you’ve wronged me. Otherwise, why would you try to escape?”
Liang Ze said, “Take him away.”
Xie He grit his teeth. He was forced into a car. He knew that he was in a really shitty situation right now. Liang Ze wouldn’t let him off easily.
Very quickly, the car stopped and Xie He was dragged into an empty warehouse. It was obviously one of their bases. Xie He was pressed down onto a metal chair. Immediately, his expression cracked. He began to struggle intensely! “Let go of me!”
But it was no use. Xie He was pushed down onto the chair, his hands cuffed behind him. His ankles were also shackled against the chair. Even through his clothes, the icy feeling of the chair could be felt. The soul-deep fear drilled into his body!
Terror and pain emerged in Xie He’s eyes. He howled at Liang Ze, “Let go of me! Let go of me!”
Liang Ze didn’t think Xie He would have such an intense reaction. In his mind, Xie He was still arrogantly yelling at him despite having fallen so far. This meant that he didn’t take Liang Ze seriously. The hatred in his heart deepened.
【Ding, Liang Ze’s Blackening Value +20. The current Favourability Value is 93. The current Blackening Value is 100.】
Liang Ze walked over, grabbing Xie He by the chin. He gave him a cold smile. “Who are you yelling for, slut? Did you think Liang Chengshan would come save you?”
Xie He’s body trembled violently. His eyes were red. He forced himself to calm down. “Let…me go…let me go first….”
Liang Ze laughed. He kissed Xie He’s pale lips and asked, “Did you feel good, getting f*cked by my dad?”
Shame filled Xie He’s eyes.
Liang Ze touched him in a rough and obscene manner. “What a slut. You were willing to climb into my bed to kill him. You then threw me away once you managed to seduce him. You were even willing to kill me to gain his trust. I really loved you…and this is how you repay me.”
Liang Ze’s turned bloodshot. “You were going to kill me.”
He already knew about Xie He’s assassination attempt at the wedding. He was even more certain that Xie He’s actions back then had been a disguise. For the sake of killing Liang Chengshan, he had been willing to use Liang Ze’s life as a stepping stone…. This despicable, ruthless, and heartless liar…Since you were willing to do that, why should I love you? Why should I save you?
Xie He couldn’t refute the other’s words. He…really did feel apologetic to Liang Ze. Liang Ze was not a good person, but he had nothing to do with Xie He’s grudge. He had been using Liang Ze from the start…but he hadn’t wanted to hurt him. But in the end, he had still hurt an innocent person.
Hatred was an endless cycle. He had to pay the price for having hurt someone else. That was only fair.
Xie He’s eyes dimmed. His lips parted. “I’m sorry.”
Liang Ze shook his head, eyes ice-cold. “Who wants your apology?”
【Xie He:Ai, how boring. Baby, enact the pain barrier. Smile.JPG】
【444:Mn. QAQ】
【Xie He:Let’s let Little Brother Liang vent his anger out first. When he’s feeling better, we’ll continue raising his Favourability Value. Pay attention to Uncle Liang. When he wakes up, immediately leak this address to him so he can come find me. It’ll be fine to just let him vent a bit. It wouldn’t be good for Little Brother Liang to go overboard. 🙂 】
【444:Mn. 】Host dada is also working very hard for those Favourability points…._(:зゝ∠)_
……………………
The first time Liang Chengshan woke up, he had suffered a psychological blow, and his wounds had ripped open when he had tried to save Xie He. Therefore, he had ended up falling unconscious once more. By the time he woke up for the second time, two days had already passed.
He was still worried about Xie He. Xie He’s condition was dangerous. However, he couldn’t bear to keep imprisoning the other. He could only let his subordinates follow him and resort to emergency measures if the situation required it.
Right now, it was the middle of the night. However, Liang Chengshan still called Kenny over. “What’s the situation with Yang Ling?”
Kenny reluctantly said, “He threw us off. We don’t know where he is now.”
When Liang Chengshan heard this, he was enraged. His gaze turned stern and he said in a chilly voice, “Is this how you handle things?! Find him, now!”
Kenny didn’t dare tarry when he saw how angry Liang Chengshan was. He immediately went to organize a search.
Liang Chengshan personally led the search, using up all his resources. He even asked other powers, with which he was on good terms, for help. Very quickly, he got news of Xie He. Xie He had been captured by Liang Ze. Immediately, a terrible feeling enveloped Liang Chengshan’s heart. He ripped the IV needle from his hand and stood up unsteadily.
N-nothing will happen to him…please, dear god, don’t let anything happen to him….
……………………
Liang Ze tortured Xie He for two days. Xie He sat on the chair, his clothes torn to shred. His body was covered in blood and his head hung down. His eyes had gone slack.
Cold, pain, exhaustion….
Why couldn’t he escape it? Why couldn’t he ever escape this painful cycle…?
Liang Ze grabbed Xie He by the hair and looked at him angrily. His voice was cold. “Why aren’t you saying anything? You have nothing to say? When you were using me, you never thought there would be such a day, did you?”
Xie He looked at him blankly…. That’s right. He hadn’t thought such a day would come.
But…so what…? He actually didn’t really want to hold on anymore. He was like a walking corpse that existed for revenge. He had turned coldhearted and merciless for the sake of his revenge. He had gradually transformed…into what he hated the most….
He was just like Liang Chengshan now. There was not much of a difference between them…. They had both been willing to use any means necessary to achieve their goals.
This was the consequences of his actions. Therefore, he had to bear it.
He hated what he had become. He just felt really unresigned, not having been able to get his revenge….
Liang Ze stared at Xie He. Suddenly, he felt like all the torment he had inflicted was nothing but a joke. What had he been hoping for? To obtain this person’s remorse and love through these means? He was like a clown jumping around, hoping to obtain someone who didn’t care about him at all.
Liang Ze slowly let go….
At this moment, the door was rammed open and countless gunshots fired! Liang Ze’s expression changed. He pulled out his gun and was prepared to fight back but the other side outnumbered his own by too much and had come too suddenly! In a blink of an eye, his people were all dead or critically injured! He was also subdued.
Liang Ze looked up to see Liang Chengshan pushed in on a wheelchair. There was deep hatred in his eyes. It was this man again…. Why was he always so strong? Why did Liang Ze always lose?! He didn’t want to accept this!
Liang Chengshan’s gaze was firmly stuck on Xie He. When he saw Xie He on that metal chair, head hung down and body covered in blood…he knew that the worst possible situation had occurred. Liang Chengshan had only been unconscious for two days….How could this have happened…?
Liang Chengshan’s subordinates quickly let Xie He off the chair. Liang Chengshan held Xie He in his arms. The scent of blood attacked his nostrils. His hands were shaking. He held Xie He tightly and quietly said, “It’s fine now, don’t be scared….”
Xie He’s consciousness was fuzzy. He had once again fallen into this comforting embrace when he had been stuck in that endless pain. He slowly came back to himself and his gaze gradually regained its focus. When he looked into Liang Chengshan’s eyes, he saw unconcealed worry and love.
At this moment, he knew without a doubt that Liang Chengshan truly loved him….
Even if he had tried to kill and betrayed Liang Chengshan over and over, even if he had already left this man, this person was still willing to recklessly come save him….
But…who wanted this man’s love?!
He didn’t want it at all!
He didn’t want it! His love made him sick!
Liang Chengshan used his sleeve to wipe the blood from Xie He’s face. He then looked at Liang Ze. For the first time, murderous intent rose in his eyes. He really planned on killing Liang Ze! He had let the other off again and again, but his son continued to provoke him. This time, he had tread on Liang Chengshan’s bottom line!
But at this moment, Xie He suddenly raised his hand, grabbing Liang Chengshan’s arm. With a hoarse voice, he said, “Don’t blame Liang Ze.”
Liang Chengshan froze.
He then saw an unreadable smile appear in Xie He’s phoenix eyes. He seemed to be smiling, but his words were soul-penetratingly cold. The other raised the corner of his mouth up and spoke in a quiet but strange tone. “Why should you blame him…? The one who hurt me and made me like this….”
“It was clearly you.”
