Chapter 147: Jinhai's rage (2)
Huian’s eyes bulged out in disbelief.
“Jinhai!”, Liu Chunhua and the rest shouted.
Huian was struggling to breathe .She desperately tried to shake his hand off. His hold on her neck tightened to the point where her green nerves became visible.
Liu Hai said very calmly, “Let her go Jinhai.”
He didn’t seem to hear. Everybody tried to stop him but he didn’t budge.
The moment he heard the word ‘die’, he lost his control exuding an intense intent to kill.
Die? Cursing my Nana to die? Snatching away the light of my life?
Never. I won’t even allow uttering those words.
Tears were rolling down her cheeks. She pleaded him to release her but his clasped even harder. She started to feel dizzy.
“Wei, do something! Huian will die like this if this keeps going on.”, cried Xiang Qingge.
“Jinhai, leave my daughter. I know she said some horrible things but we can talk. Please! She is hurting.”, said Xiang Wei.
But it was as if Jinhai was determined to punish her.
Suddenly, a warm hand touched his arm.
“Liu Jinhai, please.”
He looked down and instantly recognized it. He loosened his grip a bit but didn’t leave her neck. He slowly raised his head.
He gazed into those familiar eyes and the deadly aura around him faded away. His bone-chilling gaze melted as if it was never there in the first place. His icy demeanor softened.
It was the first time Nana saw him this terrifying. Any person would have freaked out even if hadn’t been the object of his fury. But strangely enough, she wasn’t intimidated by it.
He said nothing but everyone could feel the heavy atmosphere easing up.
“Please release her. I am not offended.”, Nana figured hearing Huian say such hurtful words may have triggered him.
Chen Liling quietly observed his every single expression. The sudden change in Jinhai didn’t go unnoticed by her.
This possessiveness, how he calmed down the instant Nana appeared before him.
Does he…
He released her throwing her harshly on the floor. Huian collapsed and started coughing violently.
Xiang Qingge and Grandma Liu immediately surrounded her. “Are you alright?”
Grandma Liu was angered to death. “You have crossed your limits Jinhai! Did you want to kill her!? Don’t forget that she is still your wife! Apologize to her!”
Jinhai coldly said, “If she is stupidly stubborn enough to not want a divorce, then fine. Let her have it her way then. But, she will have to uphold this marriage all alone, all by herself. Because I won’t be here anymore.”
Liu Chunhua asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”
“In my heart, I have already broken all my relations with her. She is nothing but a stranger to me now. If she wants to stay here, then so be it. I will leave be the one to leave.”
He smiled, “So she can stay married, live in this villa but without a husband. As I said, she will be the only one alone in this marriage. Then she will soon realize the uselessness of such an empty marriage. I’m sure at that time…she will herself ask for a divorce.”
Huian looked at him tremblingly.
“What!? How can a marriage work with just one person? What is the meaning of such marriage if you live separately? It is as good as a divorce!”
Jing shrugged. “Well, she cannot have it everything her way, right? She has already had it enough.”
“You-“
“Mom.”, Liu Hai said seriously. “This is enough. I agree with Jinhai and Jing. And you Huian…” He looked at her indifferently, “Don’t force us anymore. Don’t stretch this any further. Otherwise, the thread will simply snap into two. If you want to stay married, then this is the life you will have to live from now on.”
“No…”, She looked completely defeated. She won and lost at the same time.
Mother and Father Xiang also couldn’t argue. Their daughter had committed many grave mistakes. Given the current circumstances, they didn’t object to his decision. This the consequence she has weaved with her own hands, and which she must suffer.
“We agree. Let us go Qingge. There is nothing left here to do.”
He glanced at Nana and seemed hesitant. He went up to her and said, “I know my daughter. She must but she will never apologize to you. You have suffered so much because of her. So, I Xiang Wei, ask for your forgiveness on behalf of her.”, he bowed.
“Mr. Xiang, please! Just like Aunt Chen, you are not at fault. You don’t have to feel guilty. You even went against your daughter, your flesh and blood which takes guts for any father.”, she hurriedly said. “You are an elder. Please don’t lower your head for me.”
He looked in those eyes which didn’t have a shred of hypocrisy in them. She said it with utmost sincerity.
He shook his head.
My daughter wronged such a kind-hearted girl. No wonder Chen Liling liked her so much for Jianyu.
He smiled sadly.
“Let us go Qingge.”
“Mom, Dad wait! Please talk to Jinhai! You cannot leave me like this!”, Huian cried.
But they ignored her and left the villa without turning back.
Chen Liling patted Nana’s shoulder, “We should also leave.”
She nodded.
She looked at Jinhai and found him already staring at her. It was only for a moment, but they could see their own sadness reflected back to them.
She sadly lowered her eyes and turned her back.
Looking at her back going smaller and farther away from him, he clenched his fingers into a fist.
When she completely disappeared from his view, his eyes lost all the traces of any warmth. The cold, icy aura surrounded him once again.
“Xin.”, he spoke indifferently.
“Sir.”
“Make the arrangements.”
“Yes, sir.”
It was understood that he meant to take care about his living arrangements.
Being Liu Jinhai, he obviously didn’t lack any places to stay. He had several condos of his own.
“Bro! I will come with you as well. I don’t want to live here if you are not here.”, he pouted.
“En.”
Jing nodded satisfied.
“No Jinhai! Please don’t leave!”, Huian begged before him.
Grandma Liu said, “Wait! I’m the elder of this house. I’m saying that you won’t go anywhere. You have to obey me!”
“In that case, you have to choose another heir for the Liu Corps. I will give up my CEO position. But even then I will leave this place.”, Jinhai calmly said.
