Chapter 588 Every Revelation (8)



Xuan Hui nodded in agreement.

Jun was left stunned. He alternated his gaze between Xuan Hui and his father. This was a fact that he was unaware of. At that time when he first met Ouyang Haitao, he viewed his father as someone very ruthless and calculative. To pay back sixty million in just three days for a feat impossible for anybody. But despite being the leader of the Underworld, he showed mercy to Ouyang Haitao.

"You never told me that Ouyang Haitao already had two years and upon which, you had granted him another year."

Jinhai's brows slightly crinkled. He just glanced at Jun and didn't respond.

Jian smiled. "Dad really doesn't like to show his good side, you know."

"Yeah it's like he should always maintain his cold and tyrannical persona," Nian rolled his eyes.

Ai asked, "Is it because of Mom?"

"You are right, sister-in-law! Dad has become quite a softie, especially since he married Mom."

Jin inwardly tried to imagine his father as kind and forgiving but for some reason, he just couldn't match that picture.

The twins heard an impedaning crack of knuckles. "After Zhan Yahui, it will be your turn. Be prepared."

The twins - "..."

Xing Bi slightly coughed from the other side, but there was no response from Hou Lin upto this point at all.

Jinhai turned his attention back to Zhan Yahui and said, "Any dissatisfaction until here? If you refuse to believe me, we have all the records maintained. When he took the debt, when his repayment installments started and how many of those he failed to do - right from the first day until he breathed his last, I have everything. I am not running a blind business here. Your so-called father had more than enough time and chances to mend his ways, but he didn't."

Zhan Yahui shouted, triggered. "What the hell do you mean by so-called father!? Don't fucking insult him or I will kill you! He always…always treasured Mom and me…" she trembled. "He was sincere in his love-"

Jian coldly interrupted her. "I guess you have problems reading in between the lines. Do I have to spill out even clearer than Dad did? Then open your fucking clogged ears and listen to me. Ouyang Haitao never loved you or your mother."

She stiffened.

"It should be obvious by the timing. The two years were up, and he was desperate. So he fooled your mother into a relationship just so that he could make her financially help him repay his debts. He even used her money in bad investments leading to losses and this time, it was her earned money, not his."

"Don't kid with me! Don't talk as if you lived with my family and know everything about them?" She breathed hard, her face turning red in anger. "Do you think Mom would hide something like this from me? Don't concoct stories just to paint yourself in the good light! We were a happy family! Mom, Dad and me…everything was going to be perfect…"

Jinhai said, "She hid from you exactly because of this. She wasn't just Ouyang Haitao's lover but also your mother. She saw how much you loved him, how much you wanted this family to come to be, so she simply couldn't gather her courage to break that illusion of yours…because it would mean that you would lose your father a second time."

She froze.

"And perhaps she herself too, didn't want to go through a heartbreak a second time either. Shi Shuren selfishly had an affair and abandoned her after all. That's why even if she had started to feel that something was going wrong with their relationship, she continued to live with him for your sake and to protect her heart. She continued giving money to Ouyang Haitao but her earnings were still meager in comparison to his debt. So he went a step ahead after which he had no turning back."

Jinhai leaned towards her, his black orbs drilling his grim gaze into her. "He wanted to sell you."

Zhan Yahui felt her mind suddenly going silent. It was all chaos and anger and violence held inside it until this point but now, it has turned deadly silent.

"It was that day I reduced his time limit to three days when I got a report of him visiting child traffickers. Sometimes, some or the other small organizations keep popping up now and then to sell drugs, children and sex workers. The underworld keeps a very strict eye on such ugly infestations. He visited such people, but I got to know there were more such men behind the scenes running the whole operation. I wanted to catch him red-handed with all those goons he was in contact with. That's why I put pressure on him, giving him only three days."

Jun widened his eyes.

"To illegally sell people to another country and especially doing so while hiding from my underworld is next to impossible. It requires time and planning and only three days meant that they were bound to make mistakes. I wanted to burn their disgusting organization right until their roots.

Ouyang Haitao, who was in contact with them regarding selling you, became my perfect bait. So, Miss. Zhan Yahui. I didn't express my sadistic pleasure to torture him into getting my sixty million back. I didn't care about the sixty million at that point. What I only cared for was to eradicate those bastards."

Jinhai kept hammering the bitter truth upon her. "Ouyang Haitao only kept breaking the underworld rules again and again. He failed to repay his debt, he used his lover's money to get out of it which is a serious violation of another law. Only the borrower is responsible for paying his money back, not his family. But he selfishly used her. When that wasn't enough, he laid his eyes on you. An eleven year old girl would sell at a high price at an auction filled with bald and fat men drooling to have sex with you."

He narrowed his eyes, his voice ringing with a deadly menace. "Zhan Yahui, if the underworld hadn't killed Ouyang Haitao, you wouldn't be standing before me right now because you would have already died by warming somebody's bed over and over again."
