Chapter 201 - The Reunion Arc : The Truth Of That Night (3)

Xiaosi exclaimed. "No, stop! You cannot do this!"

He tried to stop the man, but the guards had tightly held him back. The stranger had a disgusting smile on his lips as he eyed Caihong sleeping on the bed.

"Take your eyes off her damn it or I will gauge them out!" The mixture of fear and anger rushed adrenaline into his body.

The man snorted. "Chill dude. I will be gentle."

"Shut up! Don't you dare touch her!" His loud and enraged voice resounded in the house. He fought the guards and tried to free himself. But in front of Han Huizhong's well-trained men, he couldn't resist much.

He jerked his head towards Han Huizhong who seemed unaffected by everything. "Stop it right now! You might hate Caihong, but you cannot go this far! Do you think Zhiyuan will forgive you for this!?"

He looked at him in surprise and burst into laughter. "Zhiyuan? Oh yeah. He was going to talk to me about something important tomorrow. But I guess that important thing will never come to light. He won't know anything because there would be nobody to tell him. If you are thinking about yourself, then throw that thought out of your mind," he smiled, "I would hate to kill his best friend and dump his body in the river."

Xiaosi froze.

"You know, Zhiyuan is on and on trying to convince me of his relationship with Caihong and frankly now, I am tired of it. He isn't getting it that there is no room for negotiation. I won't accept her for him and that's that. And if I don't want her, then he cannot stand up against me. Nobody can challenge Han Huizhong, not even his grandson."

He sighed.

"Zhiyuan had so many arguments with me for this woman. He is not ready to listen to me, so I have to do something that will make her leave his life on her own. It will be heartbreaking for him, but I have got him covered. Ah, he was so pathetic fighting for his relationship with her. I feel pity."

Rage bubbled inside him as he clenched his fist.

In his heart, he was already jealous of Zhiyuan, but now there arose pure hatred for him. He couldn't help but blame him for getting Caihong into this situation.

Firstly, he failed to protect her at the graduation party. If Caihong was feeling sick, he should have insisted to accompany her in that intoxicated state. If he had been with her, the goons wouldn't have been able to even touch her. She could have been safe if her boyfriend would have been there for her!

Secondly, if Zhiyuan knew that Han Huizhong was so against their relationship, he should have given up on Caihong. Somewhere, in his heart, he knew that it was difficult. If you really loved someone, then it was hard to give up on your love. But after realizing how much Han Huizhong hated Caihong, didn't Zhiyuan feel that he would do something to make them apart?

And obviously, Han Huizhong would target Caihong, not his grandson! He would hurt Caihong, not his own blood!

As the man approached Caihong, panic rose in his chest more and more. An ugly feeling bubbled in the pit of his stomach and his tears couldn't help but flow.

He faced Han Huizhong, his face ashen and pale. "Don't do this. Caihong is innocent. She will be devastated! Don't you understand what dignity means to a woman!? Don't be so heartless!"

Han Huizhong said nothing.

"There is no use talking to me you know. You cannot change my mind."

Xiaosi quickly said, "Okay! You-you don't want Caihong for Zhiyuan, right? I will do it. I will talk to Caihong and convince her to leave him. I will do everything I can to separate them! I will talk her into breaking up with him! I promise! Please let Caihong go. See? You are getting what you want, right?"

Han Huizhong chuckled. "Do you think I need somebody else to do that work? I am more than capable enough myself. And this is the path I choose. So fuck off kid."

"Grandpa, please!" The fear creeping into him made him feel nauseated. "Please... you have a granddaughter too, right? You have Zizi. You love her, don't you? Will you be able to see if somebody else does this to her what you are doing to Caihong? Will you tolerate somebody ruining Zizi like that?"

Silence.

The air turned chilly as the temperature dropped. His carefree smile vanished from his lips. "Nobody will dare to touch Han Huizhong's granddaughter. So you don't have to worry about it."

His deep voice was as cold as the Arctic and his gaze clouded in danger.

No matter what Xiaosi said, everything fell on deaf ears.

"Grandpa please…" he felt helpless and defeated. Caihong was right beside him, but he was unable to help her. He was unable to save her.

Tears plopped on the floor as he bowed. "Grandpa, please...I beg you. Let Caihong go... Don't ruin her life. She would be devastated. Please. Don't hurt her…don't make her cry... she doesn't deserve this...beat me all you want! Kill me if you want but please let Caihong go. I am willing to bear anything for her. Punish me however you want! I will not say a word."

He looked at Caihong, who was unconscious on the bed, unaware of what was about to befall her. He wanted to hug her and take her away from all this mess. His heart tightened in pain to see her defenseless.

But he couldn't do anything.

His sobs echoed softly in the corridor and his voice choked as he begged him, touching his forehead on the ground. That was the last thing he could do to stop him.

The man who Han Huizhong hired yawned. "Oh come on. Stop with this drama already and let me eat her. I cannot wait!"

Xiaosi widened his eyes in horror. "No! Don't touch her!"
