Because I simply love you

Chapter 445: I am sorry



Chapter 445: I am sorry

It was all over the news the next day how Pei Yuan, the secret CEO of Moon Corps, conspired with the traitors of Liu Corps – Mr. Tan, Mr. Su, and Mr. Long. All the embezzlements done by them were thoroughly exposed. The recordings of their betrayal and all the deals they secretly handed it over to Moon Corps was also repeatedly played in the media.

Now the three ex-board of directors were in a tight spot to return every cent of the money they spent of Liu Corps even if they had to strip themselves naked and dance in front of the streets.

As soon as the facts and truth got clear, Liu Corps shares skyrocketed once again as if they never suffered any drop in the first place.

Jinhai officially took the CEO seat once again, much to the relief of all Liu Corps employees. The reputation that seemed shattered was restored in a day. All the news media who reported that Liu Corps would face bankruptcy were tightly slapped on their faces. Liu Corps took serious action against all those people whom Pei Yuan bribed to defame him.

And as for Pei Yuan. Jinhai and Jianyu took their own sweet time dealing with him. After all, he not only hurt Nana, but Serena and Zixin’s life was in danger too. The base echoed with nothing but his mad screams and cries. He was beaten up and tortured in the worst way possible, so much so that even Satan would feel the chills.

But until the end, he kept on uttering Nana’s name as if she would come and jump into his arms. He dreamt countless times that Nana was smiling at him. They were living together, happily married.

“Haha…you have lost Liu Jinhai! See? Nana is here. She is saying that she loves me. She is here. She is mine Jinhai. You have lost! Hahaha!”

Jianyu could only helplessly shake his head.

Jinhai knew that Pei Yuan was beyond any hope. And he was getting furious every time he uttered Nana’s name. Pei Yuan resisted and fought and yelled, but it all died down with Jinhai’s single shot in his head. His body turned limp, and he fell on the ground ending his chapter for real.

After Jinhai told his guards to deal with the body, Jinhai and Jianyu stepped out of the base.

“Congratulations, bro. Pei Yuan is dead. And our lives are back to normal. He was one crazy man.”

“Hm. Now nobody will snatch my Nana away from me.”

Jianyu rolled his eyes. “Bro, did you think that he ever had a chance?”

Jinhai smiled. “Nope. But he was a thorn in my way. Every time he smiled and flirted with Nana, I had the urge to squeeze his neck with my bare hands. Now nobody will eye my Nana.”

“Congratulations.” Then Jianyu excitedly looked at him like a gossip aunt. “So, so! Tomorrow is the big day. Does Nana know about your surprise?”

Jinhai proudly smiled. “Not even a whiff of it.”

“Haha! She would be so thrilled. She would have never imagined that you could have done all the preparations in such a short amount of time.”

Jinhai’s gaze warmed up, thinking of tomorrow. “En. How could I not? Even if I had just one day, I would have still prepared everything. And I have another surprise for her too. She would surely love it.”

Jianyu patted his shoulder. “You are going all out, huh?”

Jinhai smiled. “It is our first wedding anniversary, after all. By the way, when will you all out?”

Jianyu coughed in embarrassment. “That…well Zixin takes most of our time. We haven’t even gotten proper sleep yet.”

He snorted. “This will go on for at least a year – taking care of the baby and all. It’s not easy. So are you going to wait for that much? All excuses. Tsk. I didn’t know you can turn into a coward.”

Jianyu’s face darkened. “It is not like that!”

“Then, how is it? You two live in the same house, no even in the same room. Surely, sparks must have lit and fired by now between you two. All kinds of fireworks. You want to go back with her, and I am sure she does too. So what’s stopping you?”

Jianyu pursed his lips. “I don’t know…it’s like we have maintained an equilibrium of a sort. I want to take her on a date many times, but the words get stuck in my throat. We don’t talk about anything other than Zixin.”

He frustratedly ruffled his hair. “Even Mom and Dad seemed tired. Mom even gives me this irritated and exasperated looks as if she is fed up with me.”

Jinhai’s mouth twitched. “Anybody will be fed up with you. And what date? You are still stuck at that stage? So slow.”

Jianyu frowned. “What do you mean? I thought we could slowly go back and mend our relationship if we spend some time together. There is still a little awkwardness between us.”

“You are already spending enough time together because you live together. Dates won’t change anything. And I can already imagine your dates wouldn’t change any damn thing as how you two behave at home.”

Jianyu wanted to deny, and he felt annoyed at his cousin’s words, but he couldn’t retort.

He smiled as he gritted his teeth. “Then oh my great cousin, please tell me. What should this mortal do?”

Jinhai raised his eyebrow. “Tomorrow is my wedding anniversary with Nana.”

His eyebrow twitched. “I already know that, bro. Are you showing off? Are you throwing dog food?”

“I should seriously throw you in the middle of the road. Go get hit by a car or something.”

Jianyu felt wronged, and he whined. “Hey…!”

Jinhai sighed. “Tomorrow is my wedding anniversary. Why don’t you make that your wedding day as well?”

Jianyu widened his eyes. “What!?”

Jinhai nodded.

“Are you serious?”

“Dead serious.”

Jianyu vigorously shook his head. “Are you crazy? It’s too sudden. We are still awkward around each other, and you are telling me to propose to her?”

“If you don’t want to die single and unmarried by the time you reach ninety, then yes.”

Jianyu was in deep thought. “B-but how? When? Will she even agree? It’s too sudden…I didn’t even get any ring…”

“So, go get one now. What’s the big deal?”

Jianyu was absolutely clueless. It was a fantastic idea but still a dangerous one on its own. He didn’t want to destroy what they had till now.

But somewhere, a giddy feeling enveloped his chest. His heart started racing with just the thought of their marriage.

Jinhai smiled and patted his shoulder. “Think about it.”

Jianyu asked, “Where are you going?”

Jinhai became quiet. “One last thing I have to do.”

In Beijing’s central prison, Jinhai stepped out of his car. The jailor immediately greeted him.

Jinhai expressionlessly asked, “Where are they?”

“Sir, I will take you.”

A minute later, Jinhai saw Tang Ning and Tang Feng doing prison work. Tang Feng was doing some heavy labor work while Tang Ning was helping with some simple tasks.

He observed them silently for some minutes before he walked up to them.

Tang Feng and Tang Ning felt somebody’s presence, and they turned. They widened their eyes in shock.

“You! Why are you here?” Tang Ning was ready to jump on him, but Tang Feng stopped her. He didn’t want Jinhai to make their lives difficult in jail, mostly for Ning. He had heard many rumors that some prisoners were tortured here by those who were in higher positions and power and who bribed the officials to bully them. Their lives were miserable.

He didn’t want that to happen to them because he knew he wouldn’t be able to protect Ning against so many people.

Jinhai calmly watched them and said nothing for a while. There was silence for a long time. The place was already vacated, and the other prisoners were made to leave.

Tang Ning glared at him. “Why are you here now? Aren’t you still satisfied!?”

Tang Feng panicked. “Ning, stop, please…”

She could see his troubled face, so she stopped.

Jinhai said, “I have just one thing to say. Actually, two things.”

Tang Feng and Tang Ning waited. They were curious to hear what he had to say that he personally visited them in prison.

“Pei Yuan is dead.”

He didn’t need to explain anymore.

They stiffened. They looked at each other, shocked. Then their gazes dimmed.

Their last hope of revenge was also gone now.

Tang Ning smiled as tears rolled down her cheeks. “Well, good for you, Liu Jinhai. We lost. You won. You will always be happy now with Nana and your children. It’s over. Did you come here to laugh at us?”

“No.”

“Then what?”

“I am sorry.”

Their jaws dropped wide open. “What?”

Jinhai looked straight at them and slightly bowed his head. “I am sorry. I realized I went too far with her. She deserved punishment. No doubt about that. But I should have simply killed her or send her to an institution or whatever to take my revenge. Nana was right. I did lose my humanity at that time.”
