Beneath the barbaric face of Mr. Bai was a deep and strong pain. It was obvious that he cared about that child. If it was not for his remaining sensibility, he could break Ling Tianya’s neck right then.
“Do you know how much I anticipated the arrival of that child? I made every preparation possible in order to meet him, removing all the potential obstacles laying ahead of him. As long as he was able to be born, he would have had it all!”
“Had it all?” Ling Tianya sarcastically asked, “All of what? All of the Ling Family?”
“Not just the Ling Family.” Mr. Bai said, “As long as the child could be born smoothly, I would do my best to give him everything!”
“You really are shameless!” Ling Tianya sneered at Mr. Bai.
Wap!
Suddenly a heavy slap landed on Ling Tianya’s face. A burning pain swept half of her face.
That slap was so loud that even Ruan Zeyan heard it clearly in the car. It hurt as if he was slapped himself, and his heart was hurt even more. At that moment, Ruan Zeyan’s heart was squeezed by a giant invisible hand. If anything was to happen to Ling Tianya, his heart would disappear too.
Du Gang’s hands were covered with sweat as they got closer and closer to the target location. That short distance seemed to take forever, making everyone anxious.
Mr. Bai had a heavy hand. Ling Tianya’s lips were bleeding.
“Ling Tianya, I do hate you, but if you had stayed abroad and never made it back, there would be none of this today. It was a big mistake to come back, and an even a bigger mistake to fight Qu Wan and her daughter constantly! Everything that is happening today has been your own doing!” Mr. Bai wiped off the blood on Ling Tianya’s lips using his fingers and said terrifyingly, “Enjoy this moment, because this is the last time you will feel like a person. Soon enough you’ll be living like a dog next to the garbage dump, reeking and festering with all kinds of diseases. What will accompany you every day will only be dirty men and violent beatings and violations! You will lose all your human rights and wish you were dead! At last, in a gradual desperation, you will be drained by the men and discarded into a pile of dead bodies, left to slowly rot!”
Mr. Bai was getting increasingly excited as he continued to lay out Ling Tianya’s future. He was going to ask those people to treat Ling Tianya with extra violence as revenge for his dead child.
The more excited he got, the quieter Ling Tianya got. Inside those deep eyes of hers was not desperation, but judgement of Mr. Bai’s clown-like performance.
“Are you not scared? Ling Tianya, stop pretending! I know that you are scared to death right now!” Mr. Bai grabbed Ling Tianya’s hair and shouted angrily.
“Scared? Why would I be scared?” Ling Tianya blinked her eyes as if nothing was happening. Then she chuckled lightly.
Mr. Bai was confused. How could that woman still laugh?
“What’s so funny?”
“You idiot.” Ling Tianya stopped beating around the bushes and spoke directly. “I’m laughing at you, an idiot who was played by Qu Wan left and right, all for a child that was not even yours.”
“What did you say?” Mr. Bai’s face went stiff. Then he was angrier. “You really think I would believe you!?”
Ling Tianya shrugged, “It’s up to you whether you believe me. Six years ago, Qu Wan said over and over again that the child was my father, Ling Tao’s. Because of that child, I was beat up good. So, not too long ago, I asked Ruan Zeyan to help me investigate everything about Qu Wan’s pregnancy. Can you guess what we found?”
