Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 41: To suffer more and more

Shuang narrowed her eyes as at Xiaosi. "Get away from her or next time it would be your balls, Mr. Zhu."

Xiaosi chuckled. "Ouch. Even the words hurt. So you finally decided to show yourself after hiding in the bathroom? When did you start to concern yourself with a kid's fight?"

Xinyi blinked her eyes. "That was your room?"

Shuang shrugged. "Your kids ruined my beauty sleep."

Xiaosi said, his voice laced with danger signs. "So you should have told them to leave you alone rather than trying to be a wise sage and making MY daughter fucking apologize to that brat."

"It's because you didn't do it that I had to step up," Shuang sneered.

"Your interference isn't appreciated."

"I don't care. She is my niece. Somebody has to show the way."

"I think you are the most lost person here, Shuang."

She smiled. "I cannot compare to Mr. and Mrs. Zhu though."

Xinyi carefully observed Shuang. Just like Xiaosi and Caihong, it was after seven years that she was seeing her for the first time. She was the same age as her, and they studied in the same class in their college days.

Shuang was quiet but fierce when she was angry. Though they hardly talked initially, they became decent friends, and once Xinyi got to know Zhiyuan, they met more frequently as she was Caihong's sister.

It was a shock to see her on this cruise,.but Xinyi felt happy to see her because Shuang was the only one who treated Xinyi nicely in the class or at least she kept to her business.

Xiaosi smiled. "May I know the reason for your presence here?"

Shuang slightly squinted her eyes. She glanced at Xinyi and then stepped forward near Xiaosi so that only he could hear her words. "I think we are clear on the fact that you are in no position to ask me anything you know after what, right?"

Xiaosi raised his brow.

"You see, Mr. Zhu. Your wife is right there and so is your ex-best friend. And my tongue kind of feels slippery now so I may spill something out that you may not want me to."

He narrowed his eyes and instantly his aura turned dark. Xinyi felt the menacing vibes too coming from him.

What are they talking about?

Xiaosi leaned in and whispered. "You want to bring that up just because I asked you why you are here?"

"I will bring that up even if you ask me how my day was. You lost all the right to ask me anything after you shamelessly asked me that one favor that time."

Xiaosi went quiet.

Shuang stepped back to her place and looked at Xinyi. "Yo. Same as ever, huh?"

She softly smiled. "I can say the same for you. Thank you so much for taking care of Siying and Chyou just before."

She shrugged.

"It's a surprise to see you here."

She tilted her head and mysteriously smiled. "Well, what can I say? It's a surprise to me too. I have to give my Mom that credit for dumping me here."

"Huh?"

"I mean, after all, she sent me here on a hidden agenda to seduce Zhiyuan and humiliate Caihong. You understand, right? The usual drill."

Xinyi stiffened while Xiaosi coldly glowered at her.

Shuang burst into laughter. "Haha just look at your faces. You never thought I would drop such a bomb, right? But hey, according to the usual script, it should be Xiaosi I should be seducing right? The step-sister always snatches away her sister's boyfriend/fiance/husband, doesn't it? But Mom is harping on and on about Zhiyuan and throw Xinyi out of the Han family bla bla bla."

Xinyi didn't know how to comment anything on such... honesty. But she knew she didn't have any bad intentions.

Xiaosi lazily said, "And here you are, spilling your intentions."

"Mom's intentions, not mine, Mr. Zhu," Shuang corrected him. "And on that note, get the fuck out of here, Mr. Zhu before I punch your face for harassing a woman."

"Tsk, tsk, why such bias? Somebody's husband seems to enjoy spending time with my wife. Send a punch over there too."

Xinyi glared at him. "Don't talk like that about Zhiyuan."

He sneered.

"Well, there is nothing left to see here anyway. Your pitiful husband isn't gonna get any answers, and you will be busy running behind him, consoling the poor man. Boring. I want to see him more destroyed and devastated."

Xinyi trembled. "Why? Why do you hate him so much? Zhiyuan never did anything wrong to hurt you, especially you and Caihong... after all, you two were the closest to him. You…" her eyes filled with tears, "you have no idea how he was at that time when you two left him…"

Shuang slightly lowered her gaze.

Xiaosi said, "Was he in pain? Was he lost? Was he lifeless?"

His voice turned icy cold. "That much is nothing…" he clenched his fists and took a deep breath. "Heh. Zhiyuan has not suffered at all. And when I say that he hasn't that means he really hasn't. I have come back to give him that part of his suffering which he never faced."

Xinyi looked at him in disbelief.

Zhiyuan was nothing but suffering all these years. The loss of his love, the loss of his friendship...he lost his two most important pillars of his life and he was saying that Zhiyuan had to suffer more?

Xiaosi chuckled. "Just wait and watch, Mrs. Han. The true despair starts now."
