Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ling Tianya looked at the photo on the phone in confusion. It was a girl that looked like a dried out blade of grass, wearing a white patient’s gown, her eyes empty as she laid motionless on a hospital bed. It was clear that the girl’s actions were restricted by the straps wrapped tightly around her body.
Just one look, and Ling Tianya began to cry.
“Tianxin...” Even after so many years, Ling Tianya could recognize at first sight that the girl that looked like a ghost was her younger sister, Tianxin. “What happened to her? Why would this happen? Why is she like that?!”
Ling Tianya’s emotions were running high, grabbing onto Ruan Zeyan’s hand tightly, her long nails scratching along the back of Ruan Zeyan’s hand, leaving behind faint red marks.
To Ruan Zeyan, the pain was nothing in comparison to seeing Ling Tianya’s tears.
“My n found her in the midst of Vietnam’s slums, by then she was already deathly addicted to drugs, and her wasn’t very clear either. She was trafficked there, she didn’t have a legal identity, and could only rely on...” Ruan Zeyan didn’t continue on, stopping there without finishing the rest of his words.
Ling Tianya lowered her head, even if Ruan Zeyan didn’t say anything, she was very clear as to what would happen to a young woman without an identity that was smuggled to Vietnam.
“By the ti my n rushed there, that had already happened to her. Don’t worry, the people that smuggled her there and were holding her hostage were already taken care of, your sister is receiving treatnt right now in a very safe location.”
Ling Tianya’s heart felt like it was struck by lightning, her eyes misted over with tears as she looked at Ruan Zeyan, “I want to see her, bring to her.”
“No.” Ruan Zeyan rejected with no room for negotiation.
That was when Ling Tianya stopped, before realizing that that was Ruan Zeyan’s gambling chip.
Ruan Zeyan knew that that thod of his was a dirty one, and also cruel towards Ling Tianya. He didn’t care what Ling Tianya thought of him, as long as he could keep her by his side.
He smiled at her, his smile like a child whose small ploy had succeeded. “I am a businessman, and there’s no business man out there that doesn’t have a trick or two up their sleeves. We don’t do business that will lose us money. It was easy to find Ling Tianxin, but it did cost a lot of manpower and money.”
Ling Tianya’s face was ashen, staring at Ling Tianxin’s photo, the desire burning in her beca stronger.
“Ruan Zeyan, you’re despicable.” Ling Tianya’s voice trembled.
Ruan Zeyan smirked, a flash of sothing passing through his eyes quickly, “You knew from the start that I only had one target, and that’s you.”
Ling Tianya lowered her head, her thoughts imperceptible, Ruan Zeyan could only feel her trembling body and hands.
Ruan Zeyan flipped his hands over to hold onto Ling Tianya’s, which were still holding onto him, the grueso view of the many scratches on the back of his hand was suddenly presented to Ling Tianya, giving her a great shock.
Her brows furrowed, it was only then that she realized he had so scratches on the back of his hands. The man barely showed any reactions to it at all.
“Tianya, I didn’t want to use this kind of thod to force it. I just don’t understand. Six years ago, we were clearly deeply in love. Even if we had a few misunderstandings in those six years, they’re all resolved now, why do you still reject so? I don’t believe that you don’t have in your heart at all!”
Ling Tianya maintained her silence for so ti, and Ruan Zeyan gradually lost his patience, he was just afraid to hear that Ling Tianya really didn’t care for him at all.
After all, six years had passed. It was not a short period of ti by any ans, and ti could heal all wounds and wash away all feelings.
After so ti, Ling Tianya heaved out a great breath, as though she had just resurfaced from a deep thought. She looked at Ruan Zeyan. “Okay, I’ll marry you.”
He got the answer that he wanted to hear, even if he got there by less than respectable ans. Ruan Zeyan only focuses on the results. He leaned forwards, cupping her face with his injured hands, his thin lips slowly getting closer and closer to Ling Tianya.
The woman unconsciously wanted to turn away, but the man did not give her the chance to, his soft lips eventually landing on hers. That ti he did not bite, and the kiss was pure desire.
Not too far away, Du Gang’s heart exploded with fireworks at the sight! Had his boss finally been successful in chasing his wife? Did it an that from that day onwards he could face less of his Boss’ cold, icy face? Then, he would have a much better life at work!
