Liu Haiyang had always felt that Xia Nuannuan was his.
Although she had rejected him for many years every time he declared his feelings for her, in his mind, this had only been a display of the young girl’s carelessness.
Hence, he had waited for her patiently.
Until... he had heard news of her wedding.
He hadn’t been able to get over the news.
Eventually, he had managed to sneak to Beijing and into the wedding event. He was stunned by the luxury and grandeur.
So this was the sort of family that she was marrying into.
Depressed, he returned to Hainan.
Unable to accept his defeat, he tried to regain some confidence through online gaming, but yet again he lost miserably.
In the end, he gave up completely.
Until the trip to Beijing.
Mei Feng had discovered him. It was then he realized that his desire for Xia Nuannuan was stronger than ever.
Besides, how could Nuannuan be happy living such a life?
He was compelled to free her from her sufferings.
He knew that perhaps she would hate him for now.
But he had the rest of his lifetime to love her and win her heart.
He could afford to wait.
As long as Nuannuan would marry him, any other problems could be resolved.
But he could not have imagined that things would turn out .
He had been shocked by the bloody scene that had greeted them when opening the bathroom door.
He loved her, but he had never wanted her dead.
It was only then that he was reminded of the fact that, even though she appeared to be a gentle person, her nature was very tough and stubborn.
It had been a misjudgment on his part.
At this thought, he could no longer suppress his emotions and cried painfully.
Burying his face in his hands, he felt so guilty that he thought he would never be able to forgive himself.
And his remark stunned everyone in the room.
Everyone looked at him in disbelief.
Shen Zihao walked to him and reached out to grab his collar. He demanded, “What did you say?”
Between hard sobs, Liu Haiyang replied, “It was all my fault! I deserve to be beaten to death! Mei Feng found me and proposed that we staged a show that would eventually result in Nuannuan marrying me. Nothing really happened between Nuannuan and me! Those photos were spread by Mei Feng. And... I imitated Nuannuan’s handwriting on the divorce agreement. Nuannuan was waiting for you all along. It was my fault, it was all my fault...”
By now, he was sitting paralyzed on the ground, crying his eyes out.
Shen Zihao stood there, stunned.
Xia Yehua stared at Liu Haiyang in disbelief. “Mei Feng? Mei Feng again!”
Clenching her fists angrily, she sneered as she looked at Shen Zihao, “Now will you believe me? Mei Feng has always covered her tracks perfectly! She was with your father for years, but no one found any proof. It was your big brother who saw them and told me. Do you know why I took your brother with me? Because your brother wanted to establish an eSports team club and your father used that as an excuse to berate him for not having a decent job. He almost beat the boy to death!! The first place that we went to after leaving the Shen family was the hospital. If I had not chosen to leave, your brother would have died from the beating!”
Taking a step back, Xia Yehua asked him, “Shen Zihao, although Mei Feng has treated you well all of these years, do you really want to trust a person like her?”
