The Woman in Red

MinDe did not say anything.

He looked at Xiao Mei who was holding his hand while she stared at him.

"Explain? Explain what?"

MinDe tightened his grip towards Xiao Mei's hand.

He did not like to see her anxious face.

For him, Xiao Mei must always smile.

He'd rather have her act shameless and bubbly every time than see her like this.

Xiao Guan immediately looked at his daughter as if he wanted her to help him defend himself.

Too bad, Xiao Mei was not looking at him.

Or to be precise, Xiao Mei avoided looking at him.

Although she was shameless herself, she could not stomach her father's shamelessness.

When Xiao Guan did not manage to have Xiao Mei speak up for him, his countenance darkened.

He wanted to slap her for being an ungrateful bitch but he could not raise his hand and slap her on the face.

Although the thing he wanted to do the most was to berate her and beat her to death, Xiao Guan could only swallow his anger and think of how he could escape this predicament.

"This old man was only joking about the money for raising my daughter. She is my blood and my flesh. How can I sell her?

Son in law, please believe me. You can even ask Xiao Mei. She is my precious child."

Old Man Lu wanted to puke rainbows.

Indeed.

This Xiao Guan was definitely more shameless than him.

'How can he say those words without biting his tongue?'

Old Man Lu did not say anything. He just continued looking at Xiao Guan and MinDe alternately.

Seeing that his grandson was starting to explode, his heart was filled with glee.

'heh heh heh heh.. this is so fun. I hope he will punch this idiotic man in the face.'

He leisurely sipped his coffee while watching the drama.

MinDe's pupils narrowed when he heard Xiao Guan's words.

"A joke?"

"Yes! Yes! A joke!! Ah Mei!! Quickly!! Tell Second Young Master that I was just joking! How can I sell you?"

But no matter what Xiao Guan said, Xiao Mei remained silent. She did not want to say anything.

She was already tired.

Too tired to always pretend that everything was okay.

That nothing was wrong.

That everything her father did was for her own good.

She had enough.

No more.

MinDe saw the sadness in Xiao Mei's eyes. He stood up and was preparing to leave with her when Xiao Guan pulled her arm.

"Ahh!!"

Maybe because Xiao Guan was bottling his anger, he could not control himself. He pulled her arm forcefully. The strength was very strong that she screamed due to pain.

Xiao Guan was also startled. He did not expect that his tug was very strong that she almost fell backwards.

He wanted to apologize but MinDe was a second faster than him.

*baam!!!*

Before Xiao Guan could utter words, MinDe's fist already connected with his face.

Xiao Guan saw stars spinning above his head.

Before he could process everything, another fist connected to his face.

"MinDe!! Stop!! Stop!! I'm okay!! I'm okay!!"

Xiao Mei immediately hugged MinDe and tried to stop him from beating her father.

MinDe was still glaring at Xiao Guan.

Xiao Mei cupped his face and forcefully turned his head towards her.

"MinDe, look at me... Look at me.. I'm fine.. it doesn't hurt.."

MinDe's bloodlust slowly faded when he looked at Xiao Mei's eyes.

Anyone who tried to hurt her will die. No matter who they were, they must die.

No exemption.

He immediately touched her arm. He gently pulled her closer.

"Are you hurt?"

Xiao Mei shook her head.

"I'm fine."

She turned and looked at Xiao Guan who was sitting on the floor.

"Dad.. enough.. just... just stop.. please... I'm sorry but I had enough... I know you are just using me because you wanted the support of Lu Family... Dad... for once, can you think of me as your daughter and not as a tool?"

Xiao Mei forced herself not to cry.

She already shed enough tears.

A father like him was not worthy of her affection and love.

"This is your last warning. If I learn that you tried to show yourself in front of Xiao Mei again, I will completely destroy you--your life and your company."

MinDe pulled Xiao Mei and left without saying goodbye.

Old Man Lu pouted.

'No fun!! That's it?? Two punches are not very satisfying!! Boooh! Boooh!'

Old Man Lu also wanted to punch Xiao Guan and beat him senseless but he could not find any excuse to beat him.

'Tsk. My grandson is very merciful.. ayeee... both he and his older brother are still greenhorns. How can they survive in this world if they could not make their enemy wet their pants?

Ayeee.. let your awesome Grandpa handle this for you..'

Old Man Lu waved his hand.

"Go back. I'll talk with your father later."

Without saying anymore, he went away without looking back, leaving Xiao Guan who was still dizzily sitting on the floor.

When he arrived at his room, his assistant immediately followed him.

"Did he left?"

The assistant nodded.

"Mister Guan already left."

"Good. Pack my things."

"Ah? Where are you going, Old Master?"

"Did you already found Xiao Xiao's location?"

"Old Mister Xiao is currently staying in the Philippines[1]. According to the report, he wanted to visit all seven thousand plus islands and eat Filipino delicacy such as balut[2]."

"Pack my things! Well travel immediately."

-------

YanFei arrived at the abandoned house outside Beijing. He was carrying a bunch of foods and things used for daily necessities.

He saw a woman wearing a red dress sitting on the chair.

"I brought these for you. Don't worry, few more days and you can leave China.

Remember, do not come back here. This is the only thing I can do for you."

NEXT CHAPTER TITLE: Torture FengRan To Death
