Chapter 631 - Xiao Xiang Took The Chance To Loot A Burning House
Chapter 631: Xiao Xiang Took The Chance To Loot A Burning House
He was still not satisfied before he passed away. His eyes had yet to close, and his gaze was staring at the sky evilly.
Yin Shuiling felt like her entire world had turned upside down. Her head was full of the text messages that Shi Xiaoqing had sent her, and the last one where she wrote Mummy loves you… The scene where Liu Wanxin held her hand, as she said that she was handing Yin Muchen over to her also played back in her mind… Her hand was so hot and so sticky. Her hand was smeared with her father’s blood…
She saw Ning Qing running over in her direction. Liu Caizhe and Hu Ya also ran over. Many people came over. She closed her eyes, and the moment she fainted, she saw Yin Muchen’s handsome face; his expression showed that he was in extreme pain…
She shut her eyes, and at that moment, her world seemed to stop spinning.
She needed some silence.
Because she felt so so tired.
…
Yin Shuiling was in a coma for an entire week, and during this week, Yin Muchen was in charge of Liu Wanxin’s funeral. After handling the matters involving Yin De, the free time that he had left in that week was spent in the hospital ward, and he stood by Yin Shuiling’s side.
At some point, the doctor came over to do the rounds, and Yin Muchen had a glum expression on his face as he asked the doctor, “Why is she still not waking up?”
The doctor wiped away his cold sweat and answered extremely carefully. “President Yin, the patient does not have any injuries on her body, but her instincts do not want her to wake up, or maybe she has been way too exhausted. She wants to have a rest, or maybe she was exposed to a great trauma and does not want to face it. She has chosen to run from it. In these cases, we do not have any other solution.”
Yin Muchen’s dark, bloodshot scanned the doctor sharply, and the doctor slowly retreated in fear.
At this moment, Ning Qing stepped up and said, “Older Brother Yin, that’s enough!”
It was only then that Yin Muchen stopped staring at the doctor.
Knock, knock! Someone was at the door. Liu Caizhe stood at the side of the door, and he held an envelope in his hand. He had an anxious expression on his face as he looked at Yin Muchen.
Yin Muchen stood up as he headed towards the door.
Both of them stood in the corridor. Liu Caizhe lowered his volume as he said, “Muchen, things are not going well.”
“What’s wrong?”
Liu Caizhe handed the envelope that he was holding In his hands over to him and said, “I received it this morning, there is a CD inside.”
Yin Muchen had a glance at the CD inside the envelope, then asked him directly, “The contents.”
“The contents are, the scenes where Miss Yin personally stabbed Yin De with a knife.”
Yin Muchen raised his eyebrows.
“Muchen, other than us that day, others secretly trailed after us and hid in the surrounding peach garden. Someone took the chance when all of us were in a mess to take a video recording. That person gave me the CD together with a note.” Liu Caizhe handed the note over to Yin Muchen for him to have a look. “The note reads: Have a guess, if I leak this CD onto the internet, or give it to the police force, what would happen after that?”
Yin Muchen’s face looked sinister as he said, “Did you find out who the person is?”
“We have. He is a subordinate of Mu Hai. Mu Hai has gone to prison, and his gold mine was bought out by us. One of his subordinates, Ah Fan, has been very loyal to Mu Hai, and it was Ah Fan who took the recordings on this CD.”
“How many CDs does he have? Could you handle him?”
“We are unable to stop him. This Ah Fan is a hacker on the internet and is an expert with computers. All of his IP addresses automatically change every second, and we are unable to find his location. He is very clear that this CD is his amulet, and as long as we touch him, this CD would definitely be leaked. With Miss Yin’s popularity, the moment this CD gets leaked, the consequences would be very severe. Firstly, Miss Yin’s identity as Rubus Coronarius would definitely be released. No matter what the end result is, no one would be willing to accept someone who has personally stabbed and killed her own father, and also, the CD can totally confirm Miss Yin did intentionally kill someone. If we try to cover up this matter, it would definitely stir up more rumours, and I am afraid that Miss Yin would end up in prison.”
Yin Muchen cursed softly and kicked the rubbish bin.
The situation was a total mess. His moment of carelessness actually gave someone a chance to loot a burning house.
He could not allow this CD to leak. He would not let Yin Shuiling go to prison!
“What does this Ah Fan want?”
Liu Caizhe shook his head as he said, “Ah Fan did not say anything. He did not state his conditions. That is why it is hard dealing with him.”
Yin Muchen pursed his thin lips into a straight line, and he did not say anything.
“President…” Hu Ya took a phone and ran over in his direction. “President, President Xiao is on the line.”
“President Xiao? I am not answering!”
“President…” Hu Ya hesitated. He looked at Yin Muchen before he slowly said, “President, President Xiao said that if you do not answer this call, you would definitely regret it.”
Liu Caizhe took a step forward, and Yin Muchen’s facial expressions froze before he lifted his hand up to pick up the call.
“Hello, President Xiao…”
“Hello, President Yin.” Xiao Xiang’s voice came over from the other end. “President Yin, I heard that you have met with some troubles recently. I am here to help you.”
“Oh.” Yin Muchen curled the corners of his lips up into a smile, but his smile did not have an ounce of warmth. “President Xiao can say how he plans to help me.”
“I know this Ah Fan. I saved his life years ago. After that, he went to work for Mu Hai. I heard that he has something in his possession that would take Miss Yin’s life away. I can use the debt he owes me for saving his life in exchange for the item, and I could ask him to destroy those things, but…”
“President Xiao does not need to beat around the bush. If there is something you want to say, you can say so.”
“It is just that my young daughter has had a crush on President Yin for a long time now. I do not know if President Yin has any intentions of entering into a business marriage?”
Liu Caizhe and Hu Ya could both tell that this Xiao Xiang was the one looting a burning house, and he wanted Yin Muchen to marry Xiao Yao.
Yin Muchen was silent for a few seconds before he said, “President Yin, do you have to use this kind of method? Actually, we have many other ways that we can work with one another.”
“Haha, President Yin, I am not lacking in much. I am just lacking a son-in-law like President Yin. I will give you a few days’ time. After President Yin has considered it carefully, you can give me a reply then, but it is best that you do not take too long to think about it, because I am afraid that Ah Fan would not be easy to control.”
Xiao Xiang hung up.
Yin Muchen put the phone away, and he leaned his handsome back against the wall while he drooped his gaze without saying a word.
Hu Ya was very worried and said, “President…”
At this moment, Liu Caizhe tugged Hu Ya and shook his head.
This kind of situation was way too messy. They could not go to disturb Yin Muchen. When it came to making a choice, this man had never needed someone to teach him what to do.
At this moment, Ning Qing opened the door of the hospital ward. Ning Qing was surprised as she said, “Older Brother Yin, call the doctor over quickly. Shuiling has woken up…”
“What?” Yin Muchen rushed over immediately.
…
Inside the hospital ward, Yin Muchen stood by the side of the bed. He lowered his gaze to look at Yin Shuiling, who was lying in the bed, and at this moment, she opened her beautiful and large sparkling eyes and was also looking at him.
Yin Muchen did not dare move. He was extremely surprised, and he was afraid that Yin Shuiling would be sleeping again if he even blinked.
At this moment, Yin Shuiling blinked and had a frail but gentle smile on her face. “Older Brother…”
“Shuiling….” Yin Muchen sat at the side of the bed. He stretched his hand out to help Yin Shuiling sit up before hugging her into his embrace. For this entire week, she was put on a nutrition IV drip to survive. She’d lost a lot of weight, and her chin was even smaller, and even her shoulders were extremely slim and frail.
Yin Muchen hugged her tight before squeezing her into his bones, and he buried his head in her tender neck. He lowered his volume and said, “Shuiling, you are finally awake now. You really gave me a scare, I thought that you would not wake up again. I thought that you…did not want me anymore.”
Yin Shuiling stretched both of her small hands out to hold onto his waist, “I didn’t. Older Brother, I only felt a little tired and slept for a little while more.”
Yin Muchen kissed her small face and said, “I just knew that you did not bear to leave me. In the future, we will not separate from each other again.”
“Okay.” Yin Shuiling lifted her head up. She kissed Yin Muchen’s firm jaw that had a thin layer of stubble on it.
Cough, cough. Ning Qing coughed on purpose and said, “Shuiling, you have been awake for so long now, and all you see is only Older Brother Yin. Why did you not see me? I am about to feel jealous.”
They let go of one another. Yin Shuiling stretched her hand out to hold Ning Qing’s small hand. “Qingqing, I did not forget about you.”
“This is more like it.” Ning Qing laughed as she spoke.
Yin Shuiling brought her hand to her forehead. She was in a daze as she looked at Ning Qing. “Qingqing, I remembered that I was seated in your car as I chased after Older Brother’s car. Older Brother was going to look for Aunty and…my father. What happened after that? How are Aunty and my father?”
The moment she finished speaking, Yin Muchen and Ning Qing froze.
Both of them looked at Yin Shuiling. Yin Shuiling’s small face was pale without a single trace of blood in it. She seemed to be trying hard to remember what happened, but she could not remember it no matter how hard she tried.
“Shuiling…” Yin Muchen was about to speak.
At this moment, Ning Qing stepped forward and said, “Shuiling, let me tell you. You’d better not be upset. Both Aunty and your father have already…left.”
“What?” The tears in Yin Shuiling’s eyes immediately trickled down her face.
“Okay, Shuiling, don’t cry anymore.” Ning Qing went forward to hug her. She patted her back as she comforted her gently. “We were unable to stop this from happening. It is not our fault.”
…
Outside the hospital ward
Yin Muchen leaned back on the wall. The doctor gave Yin Shuiling a body check-up and walked out of the room. “President Yin, Miss Yin’s body is doing fine. She can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.”
“But, it seems that she has forgotten some things.”
“They may be things that the patient might not be able to shoulder. Maybe in the back of the patient’s mind, she has chosen to forget them. President Yin, there are some times that forgetting some things can let a patient be happy, so we do not have to make her to remember all of it. This is a type of protection for her.”
Yin Muchen did not say anything.
At this moment, Ning Qing walked out. She had a look at the stumped man and gently said, “Older Brother Yin, since this is the case, don’t tell Shuiling about what happened. No matter how horrible Yin De was as a person, he is still Shuiling’s father. Shuiling stabbed Yin De to protect you, but Shuiling could not accept it.”
“As for.. the matters involving your mother. Isn’t it better for you if Shuiling forgot?”
Yin Muchen raised his head up to look at Ning Qing.
Ning Qing’s eyes were clear and sparkling as she said, “Older Brother Yin, actually, to be honest, when I was shopping with Shuiling, when I heard Shui Ling talking about Aunty and Older Brother repeatedly, she was even unwilling to eat with me outside just so she could rush back to cook dinner for both of you. I am feeling unworthy for Shuiling, a woman should first learn how to love herself, and she can go and love someone else after that.
“But when I saw your mother handing Shui Ling’s hand over to you in that small wooden house, your mother used a tone that was akin to that of Shuiling’s own mother as she asked you to not leave Shuiling. I realized that this was Shui Ling’s love once again. When Shuiling is in love with a person, she would just burn herself to go and love the person. She would give all she had to love.
“But, Older Brother Yin, where is your love? Based on what I saw, your love is cowardly and fearful. You are so dominating and have the strong desire to take everything as your own. You have become so selfish, but you were obviously not a selfish person from the start. Older Brother Yin, your love has turned into a sickness, and your love has become unhealthy.”
