Chapter 83 - 83: The Grumpy Kitten
Chapter 83 - 83: The Grumpy Kitten
Kim Eunji inwardly cursed after Nathan had finished torturing her.
Nothing happened. He only teased her a little bit down there. Though she had her release, Nathan did not finish what he started. He said its his way of punishing her for being so sexy and a temptress.
Nathan left her hanging making the kitten grumpy.
Kim Eunji decided to give Nathan a cold shoulder. She was really annoyed with him.
"Wifey!" Nathan called as he approached her.
"What do you want?!" Kim Eunji was not on the mood to talk.
"Can I not call you? I miss you." Nathan sweetly said as he tried to woo his wife. He was about to hug her from behind when Eunji slapped his hand away.
"Go away! I'm busy." Kim Eunji alibied when clearly she wasn't. She was only playing with her phone while she was sitting on the couch. She decided to stay in the living room and watched the television in there but her attention was the newly downloaded game application on her phone.
The servants were also freely coming and through the area as they were tidying the house.
But Nathan didn't care about it. In fact, he was proud to flaunt his affection for his wife.
Nathan pouted playfully. He found Kim Eunji adorable and cute at the same time when she's angry. Why? Because her cheeks became bloated and he loved to pinch and kissed them all the time.
He was about to kiss her lips but Kim Eunji covered it with her right hand as she tried to push his face away.
"Go away!" Kim Eunji fiercely said.
'Oh! Oh! Not good. The kitten's angry.' He thought. He then thought of ideas on how to appease his grumpy wife. There's a saying between married couples that says, 'Happy wife, happy life.' Nathan didn't want his married life to be in a disaster all of a sudden.
Nathan inwardly blamed himself for what he had done earlier. He had to, okay!
He knew that if he had lost his self-control in their gym and study room escapade earlier, he might hurt Kim Eunji. He might take her roughly which was far different from their first. And he hoped his wife would understand his point as well.
'Communication is the key, Nathan,' his mind advised.
While Nathan was on his thoughts on how to appease her, Kim Eunji on the other hand was about to get up from the couch. Nathan snapped back to reality and realized what she was about to do so his first action was to suddenly pinned her back on the couch.
"Why so moody, eh?" Nathan asked her.
"I don't want to see your face." She simply stated.
"Oho! Why do you sound like a grumpy kitten." Nathan stated the obvious.
Kim Eunji hated herself from acting like a sex-deprived b*tch. But whom should she blame for it if not him?
Kim Eunji tried her best to push Nathan away.
When she did, Nathan immediately acted like he was hurt and threw himself on the floor.
"Ouch!"
Kim Eunji then came near as she tried to check if he was indeed hurt.
Nathan inwardly smiled as he thought he succeeded but Kim Eunji knocked his head when she found out he was only faking it.
The servants who happened to witness this silliness could not believe what they had just seen. But well, they thought they should get used to this as this won't be the last time they would saw this public display of affection of the couple.
"Idiot!" Kim Eunji remarked as she walked out of the living room.
***
The day continued like that until the time that they're going to visit Young Master Feng Chen in their base finally arrived.
Even the drive going there was very silent. Kim Eunji ignored Nathan's every advancements.
Well, for Kim Eunji, it was best to ignore him so that the both of them won't be having a hard time when passionate tension arose between them.
For Nathan, he was in a dilemma. One because with this cold treatment, he could control the urge to make love with her. Two, he missed holding her inside his arms.
Kim Eunji was sitting on the car not on his lap but on the seat.
"We're here Master Boss!" announced Man 1 as he got out of the car. Man 1 opened Nathan's side while Tiger opened Kim Eunji's.
Nathan and Kim Eunji got out of the car at the same time.
As soon as their foot touched the ground, a van and three cars arrived in the area at the same time.
The new arrival were Mo Jing-sheng with his wife Kelly, Kim Jeong Ho, Hua Zhang We and Mo Jing-sheng's security envoys.
Kim Eunji saw Mo Jing-sheng helping Kelly as she alighted from the car. Mo Jing-sheng lifted Kelly and gently placed her on the wheel chair.
Kim Eunji sighed in relief when she saw the man already able to stand up and walk with the help of crutches.
"Eunji-yah!" Kelly softly called when she saw her.
Kim Eunji approached her and gave the latter warm hug. It was clear that she has lost weight probably because of stress.
The two then broke off the hug and Kim Eunji gave Kelly a disapproving look.
"I told you not to come but you didn't listen to me. You're so stubborn, aren't you?" Kim Eunji gently reprimanded her.
"Well, I inherited your stubbornness so here I am! And besides, I want to join in and have some fun, too." But Kim Eunji did not believe her totally.
"Ahem! Why are you wearing a turtle neck top? Are you hiding brother-in-law's love marks from us?! OMO! Did you guys already do it?!" Kelly said as she tried to change the topic and shifted everyone's attention to the new couple.
Kim Eunji automatically blushed. She knew Kelly could easily point it out.
"Don't try to change the topic!" Kim Eunji refuted.
"Kelly, please." Kim Eunji was really against this idea.
Well, she didn't want these people to witness what she was going to do. She was about to show them the darkness inside her. Which was far from the image she had been showing with them.
"No Eunji-yah. You were dragged into this mess because of me. Let me share half of the burden by accompanying you."
"Even if--"
"Against all odds Eunji-yah." Kelly weakly interrupted her.
Kim Eunji then shifted his attention towards Mo Jing-sheng. He was asking for him to side with her and not to his stubborn wife but she already knew the obvious answer and it was confirmed when the man started to speak.
"Don't worry sister-in-law, I'll take her away from the place if it was too much." Mo Jing-sheng promised which made Kelly to smile while Kim Eunji only sighed in defeat.
"Unbelievable!" She seriously remarked but Kelly only chuckled as she looked up into her husband lovingly.
"Geez! Please spare our single hearts! We don't want to suffer death by diabetes you know?!" Hua Zhang Wei remarked.
Kim Eunji shifted her attention to Hua Zhang Wei and Kim Jeong Ho and exchanged pleasantries with them.
Nathan who was watching her interacting with his friends was sulking on the corner.
"Let's go!" Nathan together with his subordinates then walked ahead. However, he frowned when he realized that he could not feel Kim Eunji's presence beside him.
He turned back and immediately rushed towards Kim Eunji's side. Everyone was puzzles including his men because of his behavior.
"Wifey, are you going to walk beside me or.." Nathan then slowly drew his face closer into her ear as he continued, "I'll kiss you passionately in front of every one." He threatened.
"You dare?!" Kim Eunji whisper yelled.
"En. I know you don't like that, do you?" He added as he played her hair with his hand.
"Just go with him already Eunji-yah. Spare this kids hearts. They might have a had a heart attack if Nathan would really do it in front of us." Kelly said in as a matter of fact tone.
No, Kelly did not hear what Nathan whispered to Kim Eunji. She just happened to know how to read lips. Interesting right?
Kim Eunji sighed in defeat as she knew Kelly was right.
With their lead, the group then entered the base.
Nathan's base was located on the outskirts of Beijing. It was located in one of his properties which was under a dummy name he had sat up for this purpose.
"Master Boss! Lady Boss!" Nathan's men greeted the Bai couple.
Man 1 and Man 2 had already informed their colleagues about how to address them.
They were so happy to see that their Master was finally married. Like the others, they were worried that Nathan would grow old and die as a bachelor.
Marco was also in the area. Unlike Tang Hao, Marco knew this dark side of Nathan. As for Marco he was the head of his security, therefore he must know in order to have a best assessment on how to protect Nathan better. Though the both of them were his personal assistants, Nathan decided that it was best to hide this side of him to Tang Hao.
Not because he didn't trust him enough but because for Nathan, the little people who knew about this, the better.
Nathan had made sure that the chances of his people's interaction would be minimal to none.
Mo Jing-sheng, Kim Jeong Ho and Hua Zhang Wei were co-founders of this organization therefore they knew.
This group was established to protect themselves and their families and businesses to threats and danger.
Nathan's subordinates lead them into where Young Master Feng Chen was locked up at the deepest section of their base's basement.
When they saw him, they immediately felt pity for the man. He was sleeping while both of his arms and legs were chained.
His body was covered with scratches and he was now wearing a cast in his left shoulder. His finger ails were also off. His right eye was also swelling. Indicating of an infection that if left untreated, he would surely lose his eye sight.
"Bring him to the punishment room!" Nathan instructed which his subordinates obliged.
"Did you torture him even before I got the chance to do so? I thought we had come to an agreement that I'll do the torture while you'll give him the final verdict." She interrogated Mo Jing-sheng. Of course there's no way that it was Nathan who did it, he was with her for the entire weekend.
"You acted slow sister-in-law. I wanted him to pay for what he had done to my family!" He emphasized the hatred he had for the man with every word he said.
"I see. Then, his life's mine." Kim Eunji said it in a way that was like she was only talking about the weather.
The punishment room was in a theater like set-up.
The audience would be sitting on the elevated seats while the punisher and the subject would stay below for everyone to watch.
"Kelly, I'm giving you the last chance to back off." No matter how Kim Eunji warned her, Kelly remained stubborn and still insisted to stay.
"No! I want to watch him regret everything. I want to watch him receive the punishment that he deserved!" Kelly insisted. Making Kim Eunji left with no other choice.
Nathan and the rest walked towards their preferred seats while Kim Eunji waited for her subject to arrive.
Soon, a man wearing a patient's hospital gown sitting on a wheelchair was being pushed by a man wearing in black.
Feng Chen had been sedated the moment he was kept as a hostage inside the base.
Though his mind was groggy and his eyesight was blurry, as soon as he saw a familiar silhouette, he immediately sobered up. When his vision became clearer and had an eye contact with Kim Eunji, the former shuddered in fear.
It was still fresh in his memory how his little brother was injured so much by her.
"Let me go! My father would avenge me if I died here. And let me remind you, it would never be easy to take!" He bravely announced.
However, she did not take him seriously. It was true that Master Feng had been looking for his son. But thanks to Kim Eunji's misdirection and threats, it seems like the Feng Family was well-behaved.
Still, Kim Eunji did not underestimate the bond between the family. Therefore she had to make sure that her actions would not ricochet and point towards them.
She knew that the Feng was already having the theory that they held Feng Chen in captivity.
Thanks to that person who disguised as Aunt Xi and worked for Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng.
Well, she was using a different identity when she sent her threats to them.
"Hehe." Kim Eunji subtly chuckled.
"On what basis would he avenge you Young Master Feng?" She questioned.
"I'm the only male heir of my dad!" He proudly said.
"Hahahaha!" This time, Kim Eunji laughed hard.
"Well, I don't want to be the bearer of bad news for you Young Master Feng but you're no longer the only son of your father!"
Kim Eunji then tossed Feng Chen's phone to him and let him read the article about it.
"Also, your little brother was beyond repair that you may not be able to have children!" Kim Eunji suddenly announced the second bad news.
"Therefore, even if my first news was fake or not, your father had already lost the chance to continue the Feng family name through you." She added.
Who told him to misbehave like that? He had hurt Kelly so much when it was her who had owed him. It was her who sent him to jail. He should be after her and not Kelly's. The latter was innocent. She was the victim here.
Feng Chen was angered to death. He looked at Kim Eunji with murderous intent.
"You bitch!" He was about to stand up from his chair but the moment his feet touched the ground, his legs immediately gave way and he fell on the ground. His legs had lost the strength to support his upper body.
"If got the chance to get out of here, I swear I would hunt you down and kill you! But before that, I'll torture that Kelly b*tch in front of you! You're going to watch her die. No! I'll rip her stomach open and take out her baby and crashed it with my own hands. Then I would let her bleed to death in front of you!"
After saying that, Feng Chen then laughed hysterically like a mad man. He was already drooling and his eyes were red like a dog infected with rabies.
He continued sprouting nonsense even when he knew that there's no longer hope for him. He was desperate. Desperate to court death.
He thought that by provoking Kim Eunji, she would lose control and immediately end his life faster.
But he overestimated himself and underestimated Kim Eunji's self-control in situations like this. The more she was pissed, the more she became calmer.
Kim Eunji ignored him and looked at the table at the corner. On top of it was all the torturing tools available for her to use. They varied from a simple nail cutter to a chain saw.
Kim Eunji then approached the table and chose the pliers for his toe nails and a samurai sword. She also opened her bag and took a small pouch and unveiled her precious needles. She selected ten of them and kept the rest back to the pouch and placed it into her bag.
Before she walked towards him (Feng Chen), Kim Eunji looked at the direction of her husband. She was looking for something on his expression. When she saw that Nathan was having a natural smug expression, Kim Eunji decided to continue with her task.
Kim Eunji didn't know that behind that look, Nathan was actually having a hard time at the moment. So did Kelly. They wanted to stop Kim Eunji from doing something sinister and gore but they could not bring themselves on stopping her.
Kim Eunji's aura suddenly turned terrifying that Kelly could not help but shuddered in fear. Mo Jing-sheng could feel it therefore he immediately hugged his wife.
Her did not change but she became calmer. She was the perfect definition of the calm before the storm.
Even Feng Chen pissed on his pants as he felt the pressure coming from Kim Eunji.
Kim Eunji then grabbed the lapel of his hospital dress and lifted him up.
He was then pushed to sit back on the wheelchair.
Kim Eunji then strapped his wrist and his legs on the wheelchair to restrain him from moving.
"If I were you, I would just sit back and relax. There's no way I would give you what you're asking for. Granting you a quick death was never my style. Now you suffer!"
