Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 331 - A Cruel Confession

Chapter 331 - A Cruel Confession

He Lijuan was terrified. Shuang looked nothing less than a gangster right now. The only thing missing was a gun in her hand, aiming at her forehead.

"I...I…"

Shuang could see the forehead trickle down the sides of her ears. She smiled. "Guess you need another wake up call," and she dramatically raised her hand.

"Don't hit me please!" She cried. Her cheeks still burned with pain.

"Then tell me. You had framed Dad, didn't you?"

She bit her lip hard. "D-Dear I didn't frame anyone! You are just like him…" she softly sobbed. "Guoting also denied the night between us. And now you are doing the same. But it's alright. It happened years ago, and I forced myself to get over it…"

Jack Si shook his head in pity.

Poor woman...

"I must commend that you still have the audacity to act," Shuang dangerously smiled. "Do I look like the kind of person to fall for your shitty acting?"

"I-It's the truth!" She urgently said.

"Jack, bring the whip from our car," she glanced at him. "I guess it will come to good use now."

"Won't that be too painful?" Jack Si touched his chin.

She sighed. "That is the fate she has brought upon herself."

He Mian was horrified. "What are you going to do with a whip?"

"What do you think people do with a whip? Don't worry. I will show you a live demonstration. Its usage and benefits will become crystal clear to you," Shaung sneered.

He Lijuan pointed her trembling finger at her. "Y-You will hit an elder with a whip?"

"I have already pretty much slapped you. What would a whip make a difference? It's a useful tool to make people gut out the truth. It's my own version of a truth serum."

He Lijuan turned pale.

"Imagine the whip lashes on your ugly, wrinkly skin. Imagine the pain you would have to suffer."

She gritted her teeth.

Jack Si took a step, and she quickly said, "S-s-stop! Don't bring the whip!"

"Then will you stop with the bullshit?" She warned.

He Lijuan bit her lip hard. Anger and frustration darkened her gaze. "Alright! I...I did frame him. Nothing had happened between us that night."

Her daughter, He Mian, was dumbfounded. "Mom…?"

Shuang rolled her eyes.

Don't look as if it's so shocking. You are cut from the same cloth, bitch. You might have done the same thing.

Shuang smiled. "See, now we are getting somewhere. I knew it the first time I heard about it. You are nothing but a white lotus. Wanted to ride on my Dad's wealth."

"S-shut up. I had always liked Guoting, but Zongying snatched him from me," she acted indignant.

Shuang sneered. "Of course, you will say that now to save your face. Pretending to have hidden feelings for Dad."

"I-I did!"

"Where were these feelings before he became an entrepreneur?"

She stiffened.

"How come you suddenly got the great idea of trapping him at the party? It's because he won a prestigious award, and you saw your future set with him."

She hesitated. "That's wrong…"

*SLAP*

"I warned you. No bullshit."

Tears streamed down her cheeks, and she furiously exclaimed. "Yes, so what!? That bitch Han Zongying had everything! Even without Guoting, she would have married a rich man anyway! She was Han Huizhong's daughter, after all. She was a fucking rich heiress! But what about me? I didn't want to live a poor and pathetic life! Why did Han Zongying have to interfere in everything? She was beautiful, rich and had her life set. She was being too greedy!"

"Did you ever stop to think that they really loved each other?"

She snorted. "As if love is freaking important! It's useless. The only thing that drives the world is money."

"And to get that, you staged that night. How did you put Dad back to bed? Didn't he lock himself in the bathroom?"

"That was a real pain! That Guoting foiled my plans!" He Lijuan's nostrils flared in anger. "But I bribed a waiter at that time who helped me in breaking the door. He put Guoting on the bed and disappeared."

Jack Si raised his brow.

"And you…"

"I just removed our clothes and slept beside him. As expected, that bitch and Guoting broke up. It was just a matter of time before Guoting became mine. But he never believed me! I cried and sobbed in front of him but look how cruel your father was! He was shedding his responsibilities!"

Shuang laughed. "Don't blame him for not believing you. He smelled your disgusting trap."

He Lijuan said, "So what? Han Zongying and Guoting still broke up in the end. He didn't believe me, and Zongying didn't believe him."

Then she glared at her. "Why are you asking this anyway? After so many years? It's all over!"

"Over? For you, sure. But you gave a lifetime of misery to Aunt Han and my Dad," Shuang slapped her again.

He Lijuan painfully held her cheek. "What misery? Didn't he get over it? He married another woman and had you. On the other hand, poor Zongying was still stuck at the same place."

She narrowed her eyes. "What do you mean?"

"Hahaha. That bitch never married anybody. Can you believe it? She was so heartbroken that she couldn't forget Guoting. She was still single when I met her."

"You met her again?"

"Yes," she sneered. "It was a coincidence. I met her after almost nine or ten years I guess? I was shocked to know that she was still stuck in the past over what had happened years back. So stupid. And you know what? I finally burst her bubble. I admitted in front of her that Guoting and I never slept together."

Shuang slowly widened her eyes.

"You did?"

"Yes! Hahaha. You should have seen her face when I confessed. She looked as if she lost some great battle. She was so stunned that it gave me immense satisfaction. She just blankly stared at me. But tch.. She died a few days later due to an accident."
