The surprised Mo Luwei moved closer to Su Min, so close that his lips almost touched her cheek. His hot breath warmed her skin, but the close proximity didn’t make her blush. She was waiting for the man to give her her due retribution.
“You bitch. You just miscarried, and you can’t wait to sleep with me again, huh? Let me fulfill your desire then.”
‘I miscarried because of you,’ Su Min would think as he forced her to lay upon the cleaned sheets that bore witness to her tears. ‘Our baby died because of you,’ His arms caged her body in, and with a muffled hum she was forced under his tyrannical sea.
Her weakening arms became tired of fiercely pushing against his towering frame
‘My desire...’ Su Min closed her eyes with defeat. The walls of her ward bore witness to her humiliation. ‘Is to watch you die.’
Mo Luwei yanked at her arms with brute force. She let out a groan of distress as her frail frame crashed into his intimidating figure. She knew, without a doubt, after this, that her arms would bear his fingerprints like love-kissed bruises.
.....
He trapped her close to his body. He would inch closer to her ears. His familiar breath -hot and heavy and everything she now resented and adored- so close to her ear made her quiver, “You have to repay your father’s debt. From now on, for your own life, you better break off all contact with that Li Jie and be my slave.”
She closed her eyes in defeat. Time and time again, when she thought she’d hated him the most, he proved to her that she could hate him even more.
Mo Luwei saw her silence and, with a twist of his lips, he carried on talking, “It’s best if you move to my villa today. If you annoy Su Luqin, I’ll make you suffer ten-fold! Believe it or not, I’ll make Li Jie disappear from Pujing City forever if you try to ask him for help- Argh!”
Mo Luwei released his tightening grip on Su Min’s arm with a sharp cry of shock. He whipped his head around to peer at the back as he held the back of his neck that twinged in pain.
“? Hupsieee ?. Did that hurt?” Bing Shi mockingly asked with false care as she retreated her staff, “If you dare to do something to senior Li, believe it or not, I can make Mr Mo disappear from Pujing City forever too!”
‘~ Take over ML’s entertainment and paw yourself a few roles.’
‘In the history of acting, give me the name of an actor who received recognition without setbacks?’
‘None.’
‘Gimme more setbaaaaaacks!’
She was just an inferior third-rate actress! Mo Luwei could destroy her whole career if he wanted to! Of course, being who he was, he did just that after he sent someone to investigate her background.
He blacklisted her. Nobody would dare to hire her again! Much to his frustration, however, most of her income came from her live streams and donations! Hm, later today, he’d need to hire some capable hackers and get someone to take over her parent’s business!
Perhaps that would make her more inclined to stay out of his business.
Mo Luwei looked at Bing Shi with cold eyes. They were, much to her amusement, far less intense and intimidating than the cold looks the second male lead, Quin Yu, gave her during their first confrontation.
“Who the hell are you?!”
“President Mo... even with your poor memory, I’m surprised you’ve forgotten me so soon. I’m not one to flaunt my memory, but even my pea-sized brain can at least remember the deal I made last week,” Bing Shi said with a flourish of her staff. After saying so, she’d used her staff to push Mo Luwei away from Su Min.
He was meeker than Bing Shi assumed. He had yet to make a move on her parents, which she thought was a shame. ‘I need more exposure.’
Li Jie, who stood beside his crazy fan, had no idea where she got her guts from. Inwardly, he wondered why she always seemed to be stalking him?! He didn’t know when, but a lot of newspapers were filled with their photos together or Silika being kicked out of ML’s entertainment. There were even rumours that he got Silika pregnant!
Most importantly, her real husband didn’t take any action despite the explosive news between him and his crazy fan! His fan’s husband, Lukas Shiffer, had no traces that pointed to his existence besides that marriage certificate.
Bing Shi worked her way around Mo Luwei’s awkwardly standing body and sat on the end of Su Min’s bed. She studied Su Min with a trace of pity in her heart.
This woman, with her sallow skin and her tired eyes, was once a female lead. Look at her now.
Bing Shi came to the realization that it was of no use to convince Su Min of Mo Luwei’s bad traits. Su Min already knew of them and despite his horrible personality, she still continued to love him. It’s just that, with this love, Su Min also hated Mo Luwei enough to hurt him back.
Bing Shi had to try and build up Su Min’s inner confidence from the ground up so that Su Min would no longer like Mo Luwei.
Bing Shi knew just by looking at Su Min that working on her cripplingly low self-confidence would take a lot of work.
Bing Shi tested the waters by asking Su Min, “Didn’t president Mo say that miss could leave with senior Li after you abort your baby?”
Bing Shi reached her hand out to pat Su Min as a mimicry of congratulations, “I hope he was here to say farewell to you?”
“No... he...” At that moment, Su Min’s throat pulled itself into a lock, her voice faltering into a trail as she contemplated to herself.
In her ward, tucked away in this hospital, it seemed like she’s been doing a lot of reflecting right now. Who in this hospital didn’t know about her situation?
Who in this hospital didn’t know that the situation she was in happened only because of the man she loved more than herself and the woman she loathed more than her mirror reflection?
Su Min gritted her teeth before she cursed Mo Luwei with what little courage she had, “Mo Luwei, you fiend, I hate you! I hate you so much! I hate you, I hate...” She repeated herself so much until finally she broke down and admitted with despair, “How I wish I never met you.”
Mo Luwei hid his regret. Only recently did Li Jie tell him the truth of what happened. He ordered someone to investigate the truth because he couldn’t take Li Jie’s words as proof.
“I know you saved me that year. I know Su Luqin took all the credit. But later, I fell in love with Su Luqin and you began to hate her because of your jealousy. Su Min, you are so cruel. You used your power to make Su Luqin suffer so much pain,” Mo Luwei turned the matter against Su Min who processed the gaslighting accusations.
“Why you utter-” Su Min felt an indescribable amount of rage filter into her system as she whipped her pointing finger at Mo Luwei.
“You two-timing, hypocritical, liaaaaaar ??,” Bing Shi chimed in, successfully interrupting Su Min’s angry tirade. She also coincidentally prevented Mo Luwei from carrying on spewing his absurdity. She would rather not have her ears bleed from listening to his nonsense.
“If I knew that my man had been avenging my death by sleeping with my step-sister, I would return back from death and haunt you to oblivion. Yup, your sweetheart probably hates you too, and that’s why she returned from the depth of the ocean, haha,” Bing Shi taunted Mo Luwei with a smug grin.
Mo Luwei, in turn, stared at Bing Shi in surprise.
“Do we... Do we know each other?” Su Min looked at Bing Shi in shock, then back at Mo Luwei. She peeked at Li Jie, who watched them with an impassive expression on his face.
When Li Jie noticed Su Min’s questioning eyes, he offered her a slight smile and nodded towards Mo Luwei with a roll of his eyes.
Bing Shi shook her head, bestowing Su Min a dazzling smile, “Silika Lin. People used to call me Tian Shi, as in... your Guardian Angel. Currently blacklisted by the whole industry for saving a pregnant woman and hitting a man’s ego.”
Su Min thought that this woman had to come from a great background to dare go against Mo Luwei. That, or perhaps she had far more guts than Su Min. It seemed Silika’s situation worsened because of her. Finally, she succumbed to her emotions once more and started bowing her head humbly. She apologized hoarsely, “I’m sorry, that... that was my fault; please forgive me.”
“Actually... It’s not that bad. I stumbled upon a great opportunity,” Bing Shi grinned at Li Jie, “I got to be with senior Li for the whole time.”
Li Jie almost choked on his saliva if not for his acting skills. This was not a part of the plan.
