Unexpected Second Chance at Love

The sound of continuous punching echoes loudly inside the room as Gui Zhongmin returned from his flashback of the past. He slowly looks at looks at his older twin brother and sighs inside.

Xu Zheng had indeed turned into a punchbag for him to vent his anger.

Every time Gui Tian Lan comes into contact with a rapist, he would lose himself and want to kill the person.

Looking at Xu Zheng's face that is now swollen and bloody, Gui Zhongmin walks over to his brother.

He can tell that Xu Zheng had long passed out from all the hits done by the man.

Handing his brother a white lab coat, he calmly spoke.

"He's not him. You're wasting your energy."

Which was the truth. Even to this day, they cannot find the murderer of Gui Tian Lan's girlfriend. He had told Gui Tian Lan many times to ask Fate to help search, but the man always said no.

He (Gui Tian Lan) will only ask for Yue Ling's help when he feels that he no longer has anymore hope.

Hearing his younger brother's words, Gui Tian Lan's eyes that seemed to have lost their way finally returned to normal. He stares at the bloody face of the man he used as a punching bag.

Staying in silence for a long minute, he takes the lab coat without taking his eyes off of Xu Zheng.

However, instead of putting it on, he uses it to wipe the blood stains on his hands.

Turning away from the disgusting man, Gui Tian Lan's voice sound.

"I want him thrown in prison."

"Prison?"

Gui Zhongmin questions with furrow brows. He looks at his brother then to the unconscious man hanging upside down. Why the sudden change of plan?

Taking the safety goggles off, he purse his lip.

"I thought we agreed with pouring hydrofluoric acid on him."

Gui Tian Lan slowly shook his head as he stares back intently at Xu Zheng with cold murderous eyes.

"For a rapist like him, death is too easy for him. He will rot in prison and reap what he sow."

Saying this, he toss the now bloody white lab coat on the ground and strides out of the room.

Watching the man leave, Gui Zhongmin shook his head with a long sigh. He reach down to pick up the lab coat then looks at the fat man.

Taking two steps closer, he lift his leg and sends the man swinging away with a kick as he sighs again.

"Well, I gotta say, you are a lucky bastard. Seems like you will be hanging in prison."

He turns away and follows out the door after his brother. Right now, they still have things to take care of.

As the twins exit out from the room, Uncle Zhi did not leave. He had been waiting for them outside the door.

When he saw the two boys, he looks at them then down to Gui Tian Lan's hands that still had faint colors of blood.

"The hydrofluoric acid did that?"

Gui Tian Lan glance at the older man but does not utter a sound as he strides away. From behind, Gui Zhongmin stares at his brother's back then to Uncle Zhi.

"Prison."

Hearing this one word, Uncle Zhi did not get angry that they didn't kill Xu Zheng for all his crimes. Instead, he nods his head in understanding and turns to look at Gui Tian Lan in the distance.

Only a few people within Fate truly knows the real reason behind Gui Tian Lan's hatred for rapists. Except, this time he didn't kill the person like all the other times.

Walking after the older twin, Uncle Zhi felt Gui Tian Lan's decision this time isn't so bad.

Prison is the scariest place for a rapist to be as they are meat for the ones resting behind bars.

As the three people left the room, they pass through a dark and long hallway before reaching a single door.

Gui Tian Lan opens the door and the light from the other side gave way to them.

It was the same room hidden behind the computer store.

However, Gui Tian Lan did not stop in his steps. He strides to the other side and walks out through the flip flap doors.

The members of Wolf Team stares at the man in confusion. They then turn to look at Uncle Zhi and Gui Zhongmin.

Yiqing furrow his brows. What happened back there that made Gui Tian Lan like this? Earlier he wasn't like this at all.

Thinking this, he decides to follow after, but was quickly stopped by a voice.

"Leave him."

His brows furrow more as he pause in his steps. Turning to the owner of the voice, he purse his lip.

"Why? What's wrong with him?"

Yue Ling was discussing something with Ju Suo and Jiangyu when her three subordinates entered the room again. However, when she saw the look one Gui Tian Lan's face, she already knew the reason behind it.

When she read the information on Xu Zheng, she too saw the mention of the man being a rapist of many women, but got away with it.

At first, she wanted Qi Li and Gui Zhongmin to handle the man, but Gui Tian Lan said he will take Qi Li's place. She knew why but did not stop him.

Even if she were to stop him, Gui Tian Lan would still have found his own way.

However, when she saw that Yiqing wanted to follow, she could only stop him.

"He needs to be alone for a few minutes."

Her words fell as she looks at the flip flap doors. Turning away, she doesn't say anymore and continues her conversation with Ju Suo and Jiangyu.

Yiqing stares at his lady boss in a long daze. He thought about the expression on Gui Tian Lan's face then turns to look at Gui Zhongmin. He part his lip to say something, but…

"It's not my story to tell. You'll have to ask him if you want to know."

Gui Zhongmin answers the unspoken question and walks over to a chair to sit down.

What happened to his brother is not something he can just go around and tell people. Besides, right now they may be working with Wolf Team, but they're not that close enough for personal life details.

If Yiqing really wants to know, he'll have to hear it from Gui Tian Lan.

Passing the flip flap doors, the warehouse part of the computer store comes into view. However, Gui Tian Lan continues in his steps as his mind seemed to have turned into a blank page.

Feeling his steps begin to feel heavy like giant rocks had been tied to his ankles, he slows down.

Reaching into his pocket, he takes out his wallet and opens it.

His body slowly slips down until he sat on the floor and he stares at the inside of his wallet.

On one side of the wallet held his bankcards and ID, but on the other side held a picture of a young woman in her early twenties.

"I'm sorry..."

Her smile was full of happiness as it reached her eyes. She was hugging a giant panda bear that is two times bigger than her, but the look on her face was like the teddy bear was the best gift ever.

However, the longer Gui Tian Lan stares at the girl in the photo, his eyes flash with grief and guilt.

His thumb gently caress the photo as if he was caressing her cheeks.

"I'm so sorry I couldn't protect you…"

He inhales a mouthful of air and close his eyes to calm himself. He had promised that he will not cry again.

Slowly opening his eyes, he murmurs a whisper.

"I'll find him… I promise…"
