~|confession #20 - i am gonna make his life hell!|~

"The mistakes made in the past and the bad decisions that were taken cannot be changed. After all, time travel is only possible in fiction. In real life, you have to live with your mistakes and learn from them. I am going to do the same but I am also going to teach this man a lesson as well." ~ Dr. Sang Tian *sharpening her knives*

Standing in the parking area with just a few feet of distance between the two of them, Sang Tian and Fang Haoran stared at each other intently and in silence. Sang Tian was breathing hard, her chest heaving with every breath that she took telling the story of anger and resentment coursing through her veins.

"What do you think of yourself, huh?" stepping forward Sang Tian smacked her hand hard against Fang Haoran's chest, "Just because I was not able to say anything in front of my grandfather does not mean that I cannot speak the truth!" another slap on his arm, "Whatever happened in there, consider it a momentary success. You can not silence me every fucking time! Do you get that?!"

"I will tell the truth to my family and you," she poked at his chest with her index finger, "Do you get that?"

Her eyes were misty with tears, and Sang Tian's body felt hot with anger. Not only did Fang Haoran not let her reveal the truth to her grandfather but he also kissed her not once but twice and that too without her consent.

"I am not your toy, Mr. Fang Haoran with whom you can play with as you desire." Sang Tian gritted through her teeth, "I have told you before and I am repeating it for you again. Listen carefully and get it registered in your pea-sized brain; I will not marry you." 

"Did you hear that?" she asked while angrily tugging at his ear. "I. Will. Not. Marry. You!" she repeated in a louder voice punctuating stressing on each and every word.

Fang Haoran remained unmoving, waiting for Sang Tian to finish what she wanted to say. He did not react when she smacked at him, slapped him, and yelled in the face. Instead, he remained calm and waited for Sang Tian to calm down as well.

Once again, they stood in silence for about a minute before Fang Haoran spoke, "Do you wish to create a scene here?" he asked, "I don't mind but I am pretty sure that you will."

"You -" Sang Tian was absolutely going to slap him hard on his cheek and leave a handprint there but before she could Fang Haoran held onto her mid-air and pulled it down, "I know that you don't want to marry me but I think you will change your decision rather quickly once I will show you the present that I got for you."

"You can buy me the whole world and put it at my feet but I will still not agree to marry you. Nothing will change my decision." told Sag Tian in a firm voice, her head held high as she spoke while looking directly into Fang Haoran's eyes.

The man chuckled in response and leaned closer to her face. Sang Tian's instinctive reaction was to cover her lips with her hands, her action causing him merriment, "I ask you for a chance to show you the gift that I prepared for you and see if that can change your mind or not."

Sang Tian looked at him with inquisitive eyes trying to decipher just what was Fang Haoran up to. She worried about his next move and was extremely anxious about this gift that he said he had prepared for her.

"What is it?" she asked in a calm yet curious voice.

Fang Haoran opened the door to the passenger seat of the car for her, "You have to come with me for that." he smirked, "And don't worry, I won't touch you again without your permission. What happened in there was just demand of the situation."

Sang Tian scoffed but nevertheless sat inside the car and pulled the car door closed. Fang Haoran smirked in satisfaction and went around to the other side of the car, and sat on the driver's seat and drove them towards the main city and to his penthouse.

After about two hours of driving, Fang Haoran finally stopped his car in front of the massive apartment building. Handing over his car keys to the valet, Fang Haoran led Sang Tian to the private elevator. Fang Haoran punched in the access code and once he pressed enter, the doors of the elevator opened, "Come." he stepped in first and gestured for her to follow.

Pressing the other button to close the elevator doors, Sang Tian and Fang Haoran were led to the topmost floor of the apartment building.

"I am here, now tell me what is it that you wanted to show me." said Sang Tian the moment they stepped inside his penthouse.

"What's the hurry?" snickered Fang Haoran, "Would you like some tea or coffee first? Or perhaps a glass of whiskey or the fine quality wine?"

"No, thanks." commented Sang Tian, "I don't have enough time to waste on you. Just get to the point." she said emphasizing every word of her last sentence.

Leisurely, Fang Haoran took off his suit jacket and threw it on the couch. Removing the cufflinks, he rolled the sleeves of his dress shirt up to his elbows and poured himself a drink.

"Would you please hurry?" Sang Tian was feeling equal parts anxious and agitated, "I have to go to the hospital tomorrow morning and have a lot of other important this to do. I suggest you do not waste my time." she commanded and in response, she heard him laugh as he went behind the bar and pulled out a thick file.

"Here's your gift." he said placing the file on the counter, "See for yourself and tell me if liked it or not." he smiled while sliding the file in her direction.

Frowning, Sang Tian opened the file and began going through the documents that it held. Horror crept inside her heart seeing Yu Xin's name and photograph on the first document that she read. It held all the basic details of her best friend.

Demographic details, along with contact information, occupation and academic details, her hobbies, and even her daily routine were on that page.

"What the hell are you up to?" Sang Tian did not wait for an answer and continued to go through all the documents that Fang Haoran had presented her with. These weren't just any documents, these were the details of all the illegal and unethical hacking activities that her friend Yu Xin had taken part in.

These weren't just any documents, these were the proof that Yu Xin had been involved in a number of crimes of various degrees that involved her hacking capabilities. Listed among these documents were recorded statements from the other law offenders with whom Yu Xin had been in contact with and had over the years paid them, and used them to do her bidding.

"I have a few audio files as well." commented Fang Haoran causing Sang Tian to gasp in surprise and horror, "My favorite being the one here she demanded money from the director of your hospital in return for that scandalous video that you had captured that day at the hotel." he chuckled and took a sip of his alcoholic beverage.

Sang Tian felt chills run up her spine as fear for her friend clawed at her insides, "Now, I am an upstanding and law-abiding citizen of this beautiful country. I really wanted to submit this file to the police chief and let him deal with your friend, Yu Xin."

Sang Tian snarled in response and her hold on the file tightened, "You won't do such a thing."

Raising his hands in mock surrender, Fang Haoran was a picture of innocence as he exclaimed, "I would not if you say so."

Grabbing the file and clutching it close to her chest Sang Tian spoke through clenched teeth, "I am serious Fang Haoran. Don't do this, please." she would not hesitate to beg if she had to, to keep her friend from being arrested and ridiculed for life.

"Hey, relax!" exclaimed Fang Haoran in a gentle and overly sweet voice, "I promise I will not hand over this file to the police but in return, you have to do something for me."

And Sang Tian knew what he was going to ask her, "Smart girl!" praised Fang Haoran noticing the look of realization in her eyes.

"I knew I liked you for a reason." his words felt like acid being poured into her ears, "I told you, I am a businessman. I do not do favors for free."

"Believe me, I have noticed." snarked Sang Tian.

Laughing, Fang Haoran raised his glass in cheers and added, "I will do what you want but you have to do what I want you to do. And you very well know what I want."

"But still," he paused dramatically, "I am going to give you time of two days to decide what you truly want to do. Take these 48 years to think about it very, very carefully and make a final decision. And be sure to let me know about your decision on time else I will send the other copy of all these documents to the police department and they will handle the rest of it."

Angry tears blurred Sang Tian's vision, her blood boiling as unadulterated anger coursed through her entire system. She was aware that she was doomed, that this was the dead end, the repercussions of her and her friend's actions. But nothing justified Fang Haoran's demand.

"260416" came Fang Haoran's voice breaking through the fog of hatred that surrounded Sang Tian, "That's the passcode for the elevator. See yourself out." he said smilingly and Sang Tian wasted no time to leave the bloody apartment.

Once in the elevator, Sang Tian let her tears fall freely. She knew that she had no choice now but to accept Fang Haoran's proposal and she did. She has to. But that won't stop her from making sure that Fang Haoran regrets using her weakness like this.

She had learned her lesson and now Fang Haoran will be taught his.
