Chapter 201: A little glimpse into his master plan (2)
Jinhai smiled. “Why do you say that?”
Liu Hai poured another glass for himself. “Otherwise, there was no meaning to prepone the banquet.”
He said nothing.
“The banquet originally was supposed to be on the twenty-third of last month. But, it got pushed back to the seventh. People may shrug it off as something unimportant, but for you…your whole plan was dependent on it.”
Silence.
“Because Suyin and Huian would have still carried out their plans even if it had been on the twenty-third. Their schemes would have failed again, but…Nana wouldn’t have gotten pregnant.”
Jinhai calmly stared at him.
“Then what? Even if Huian refused to divorce after the banquet, it wasn’t anything to worry about. You knew it was just a matter of time before your hard work of that night would take root in Nana’s womb. You only had to wait.”
“Precisely why you forced Nana to work in Liu Corps again. You wanted to keep an eye on her condition.”
“Heh! From the banquet night till the day of the fake contract, your only motive in going in such a roundabout manner was to bring Huian to that balcony. You had to wait for a long time for that to happen. But you were fine with it. You were always a patient kid anyway.”
“As expected of you, Dad. You never fail to impress. So, you must also know why I did this.” Jinhai commented.
Liu Hai narrowed his eyes. “Naturally. Your game plan turned into a thirst for revenge. It started from the night when Nana got hurt in that warehouse.”
Jinhai stared at the space ahead. He clenched the glass in his hand.
That was the only time he couldn’t protect her. He still felt guilty for it.
“The question is, how did you come to know what exactly happened between Nana and Huian that night?”
He didn’t respond.
“Jianyu was still searching for those men who attacked the three of them, but he never found them after they escaped from that place.”
Jinhai asked, “What do you think?”
Liu Hai snickered. “Why would he be able to find them? Those gangsters were your men, after all.”
Jinhai chuckled. “You understood everything, yet you didn’t confront me.”
Liu Hai shrugged. “It sounded more interesting that way to act dumb and help you behind the scenes. Ah, that Suyin…she was bound to get in the mess that night. She offended Liu Jinhai, after all. What is she doing, by the way?”
Jinhai said, “You don’t have to worry. I have made sure that she ‘enjoys’ her life every day, so much that she is overwhelmed by it.”
He laughed. “Enjoy? Her or your men?” But then he got serious. “Jokes apart, Nana must never know about the truth behind the banquet. She will feel betrayed. She might hate you.”
Jinhai turned solemn. “I know. I will never let her know about it.”
He looked proud. “Make sure Nana doesn’t get a sniff about it, just like how I did. Hehe, Chunhua still doesn’t know that during our University days, one time, I had deliberately torn off the condom a little while making love to her. And that’s how you were conceived. I was stubborn to take responsibility, and Mom had no choice but to stop introducing those pathetic heiresses to me.”
Jinhai rolled his eyes. “I’m not interested in listening to your sex life.”
“Shut up! There was one time when your mother and my relationship was really in jeopardy. Mom never accepted her, and she would always brood over that she is not good enough for me. One day she said that we should break up. Pah! How could I let her?”
He waved his hands in blatant dismissal.
Jinhai sneered. “So, you tricked her into having raw sex with you.”
He shrugged without an ounce of shame. “What matters is the result. She got pregnant, we got married, and we live happily ever after.”
Jinhai gave a bored expression.
“Hey! You should know the beautiful story of how you were born. That is also how I got an inkling to your plan. Heh! History repeated itself once again. You followed in your father’s footsteps. I’m so proud of you!” He patted his shoulders.
Jinhai said nothing.
“Hey, you should be proud of your other son as well!” A voice came from behind.
They turned, and Liu Hai said, “Ah, Jing, my boy. Come, come, join us.”
“You are useless! Why didn’t you call me sooner?” Jing complained.
“Alright, alright, my mistake.” Liu Hai sighed.
“Hmph! So, where is my praise? The banquet plan was successful, all thanks to me.” His nose grew longer in pride and arrogance.
Jinhai smiled. “Of course. Without my cute little brother, how could I have got your sister-in-law?”
Jing felt elated. “Hehe~ So what will be my reward?”
“Take the cheque from me tomorrow. You can buy the latest sports car of your liking.”
“Yay!!!!”
“You really spoil him.” Liu Hai shook his head.
“Because you don’t! And my love Yukito had almost caught me coming out of the electrical room. If he had sensed something amiss or seen me tampering with the wires, then my love story would have got finished!”
“That boy is smart.” He nodded.
“Of course, he is!” Jing looked at his father in disdain. “Yukito had even doubted why you were so relaxed about sister-in-law’s pregnancy, but I handled it. You couldn’t even control your excitement. You nearly gave us out. So pathetic.”
Liu Hai sheepishly smiled.
Liu Hai asked curiously, “What about Huian? Someday or the other, she will come out of her vegetative state. She will definitely try to expose you.”
Jinhai smirked. “Huian? She should have the courage to do that. And I…will clip out that budding courage if she ever tries to have any.”
