Chapter 37#

Lu Muchi kicked very hard, and the whole door panel was shaking.

Xu Qiaoyin was washing vegetables in the kitchen. Accompanied by the sound of water, she heard the kicking sound and thought it was next door. The sound insulation of this apartment was very poor.

Yan Heqing didn’t let Lu Muchi kick for too long and stepped forward to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Lu Muchi rushed into the room like a mad beast.

He only saw Yan Heqing in his eyes.

The young man had taken off his coat, wearing a black loose sweater on his upper body and light-colored jeans on his lower body.

He took off his clothes as soon as he entered the door! So impatient!

Lu Muchi’s eyes were red. He stepped forward, raised his hand to strangle Yan Heqing’s neck, and slammed him against the shoe cabinet with force.

Yan Heqing’s back hit the cabinet heavily, and a clear pain came from his shoulder blade, but his expression didn’t change at all, he just looked at Lu Muchi calmly.

This calm look stimulated Lu Muchi even more.

Especially the sound of cooking and the smell of food coming from the kitchen from time to time, Lu Muchi gritted his teeth and sneered, “Having dinner together in the love nest, how romantic.”

Yan Heqing finally had an expression. He knew Lu Muchi was disgusting, but he didn’t expect him to be disgusting to this extent.

Seeing his expression loosen, Lu Muchi thought he had hit Yan Heqing’s sore spot. He pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered, “It seems you haven’t figured out your identity yet. You are my thing. I can throw you away or give you away, but if you run around on your own, don’t blame me for crippling your disobedient feet, and—”

Thinking of Yan Heqing being intimate with others, he gritted his teeth, “Ruining the place that is no longer clean!”

This sentence was similar to the original text.

Lu Muchi wanted to negotiate a project and invited the other party to the villa for fun. Seeing Yan Heqing, the man saw Yan Heqing locked in the small dark room and hinted at Lu Muchi intentionally or unintentionally throughout the process.

Lu Muchi certainly understood the man’s meaning. One thing could be exchanged for a business worth billions, it was worth it.

The next day, he asked Yan Heqing to send the contract to the man’s house.

He knew about this transaction, the man knew, and Yan Heqing also knew.

But Yan Heqing had to go. At that time, under inhuman torture, he had fallen in love with Lu Muchi due to Stockholm Syndrome and obeyed Lu Muchi in everything.

He was already very cautious, but as soon as he entered the door, he was grabbed by the man and dragged forcefully towards the room.

His thin and weak body couldn’t resist the tall man at all. Yan Heqing had hidden a fruit knife beforehand and stabbed the man in the shoulder to escape.

Escaping back to the villa, Lu Muchi had already received a call from the man. He looked at the trembling Yan Heqing and suddenly laughed.

“Keeping your chastity for me.” He rubbed Yan Heqing’s cheek with his thumb, suddenly his face changed, and he slapped Yan Heqing heavily on the face with a backhand.

Yan Heqing was as thin as a piece of paper at that time and was easily thrown to the ground.

Lu Muchi looked down at him condescendingly, “A substitute, do you deserve it!”

Once in Lu Muchi’s eyes, Yan Heqing was just a dispensable thing.

But now it was different. Just thinking that Yan Heqing was possessed by others and touched by people other than him made him completely lose control.

He actually stretched out his other hand and strangled Yan Heqing’s neck fiercely with both hands.

Wishing he could strangle Yan Heqing to death, he roared, “Tell me quickly, which parts of you were touched by others? Or were you touched all over!”

His neck was strangled tight, Yan Heqing couldn’t breathe smoothly and coughed violently, but still didn’t speak.

He looked coldly at Lu Muchi going crazy.

Just then, Xu Qiaoyin heard the roar. She realized something was wrong and quickly opened the door and ran out.

Seeing the scene at the entrance and Lu Muchi, her blood froze all over. In just a second, she rushed over quickly, prying Lu Muchi’s hands, “What are you doing? Let go of him quickly!”

Hearing the woman’s voice, Lu Muchi’s eyeballs immediately became bloodshot, and his facial features were distorted. He looked at Xu Qiaoyin with disdain, bent his arm, and threw Xu Qiaoyin away directly.

Staring at Yan Heqing, he wished he could swallow him alive.

He lowered his head and approached Yan Heqing, smiling sinisterly, “Tsk, so loving. Fine, then I’ll fuck you in front of this old woman and see how you fuck her in the future!”

Being close this time, Xu Qiaoyin clearly heard every word of Lu Muchi. Her pupils dilated in shock, and her whole body trembled violently.

She almost thought it was an auditory hallucination until Lu Muchi really reached out to pull Yan Heqing’s pants.

“Stop!” Xu Qiaoyin let out a shrill scream, rushed up and slapped Lu Muchi on the face, threw herself on him, and pushed Lu Muchi hard.

Caught off guard by the sudden change, Lu Muchi was pushed back a few steps by Xu Qiaoyin. His hands let go of Yan Heqing, and his back hit the door heavily, making a dull sound. Lu Muchi also groaned in pain, his cheek burning.

This was the second time someone dared to slap his face since Yan Heqing slapped him last time. The tip of his tongue swept across the corner of his mouth which was slightly cracked. He raised his face, clenched his fist and was about to swing it over, “Dare to hit me, I’ll hit a woman just the same—”

Xu Qiaoyin protected Yan Heqing in front of her. Her face was full of tears, and her lips were bitten broken.

It was also at this time that Lu Muchi saw Xu Qiaoyin’s face clearly.

Lu Muchi was struck by lightning. His fist took a turn and hit the corridor wall. The knuckles were scraped, and blood appeared instantly.

Lu Muchi had no feeling at all. He turned his face and looked at Xu Qiaoyin in shock.

Not much change from his memory, just older, and her hair was white.

It was…

Her?

Lu Muchi showed panic and involuntarily stepped back. His shoulder hit the door again. His two pupils were like soaked, opened extremely wide, looking at Xu Qiaoyin in horror and astonishment.

How could it be her…

How could it possibly be her…

Yan Heqing coughed a few times and gently pushed Xu Qiaoyin away, “Teacher Xu, please step aside, he came to find me.”

Hearing “Xu”, Lu Muchi was even more certain. Yes, it was Xu Qiaoyin. This woman was Xu Qiaoyin who had disappeared for more than ten years!

He slapped the door panel fiercely and ran away in panic pulling the door open.

Xu Qiaoyin originally thought Lu Muchi had discovered her and came to trouble her, but it turned out he misunderstood her relationship with Yan Heqing. Now hearing that the two actually knew each other, and associating it with Lu Muchi’s words just now, her eyes went black and she almost fainted. Lu Muchi he…

She trembled her lips in horror, “He, he is…” Xu Qiaoyin suddenly grabbed Yan Heqing and stared at him in disbelief, “Xiao Yan, you… what is your relationship with him?”

Yan Heqing’s face was now white as if transparent. He shook his head, “No relationship. Don’t worry, I will clarify with him and won’t let him trouble you.” He took off his coat, “Sorry to disturb you today.”

Before Lu Muchi came back, Yan Heqing left quickly.

His ambiguity confirmed Xu Qiaoyin’s guess instead. The scene just now kept impacting her. She froze in place, her mind buzzing, tears rushing out of her eyes constantly. Her Xiao Chi… how could he become like this…

On the other side, Lu Muchi rushed to the first floor. Just as he was about to leave the apartment, he stopped abruptly.

There were bodyguards following him.

In case the bodyguards discovered Xu Qiaoyin and reported to his grandfather…

He turned back abruptly and strode back to the elevator, his thumb pressing the elevator button forcefully and continuously.

The elevator came very slowly. When it finally arrived, the door only opened a crack, and Lu Muchi pried it open and went in directly, not caring about other people’s surprised looks at all, and pressed the floor where Xu Qiaoyin was.

No one dared to come in at all.

Lu Muchi took the elevator upstairs alone. The apartment’s elevator was old, ran slowly and made strange noises. Lu Muchi was extremely irritable and kept smashing the elevator wall.

After a long time, the elevator door opened. He ran out with big strides. Approaching Xu Qiaoyin’s apartment, his pace slowed down. He clenched his hands several times before entering with a straight face.

The door was wide open, and Xu Qiaoyin was still there.

Hearing footsteps, Xu Qiaoyin looked over with teary eyes. Their eyes met, and both froze in place.

Finally, it was Lu Muchi who spoke first. He scanned the room and didn’t see anyone. He squeezed a voice out of his teeth, “Where is Yan Heqing? Tell him to come out!”

He suddenly sneered, “No wonder you abandoned your husband and son. It turns out you have a little lover outside. Did Yan Heqing serve you—”

Xu Qiaoyin was so angry that her head hurt again, “What nonsense are you talking about!”

Actually, after a period of time, Lu Muchi had calmed down.

It was impossible for Yan Heqing to meet Xu Qiaoyin so coincidentally. He must have heard about his life experience from Lin Fengzhi, and Yan Heqing helped him find Xu Qiaoyin everywhere.

Although he didn’t want to admit it, he knew very well that deep down in his heart, he missed Xu Qiaoyin very much.

But vicious words still popped out of Lu Muchi’s mouth one by one, “What am I saying? I’m saying you and Yan Heqing are filthy! You are really capable. You are so old, yet you can find such a young and beautiful little lover. Teach me too, how…”

A crisp slap interrupted Lu Muchi. Xu Qiaoyin understood without asking. It must be this bastard of hers pestering Yan Heqing!

With such a fuss, Xu Qiaoyin had no joy of seeing her son again. Her raised hand trembled terribly, and she vomited blood from her throat, shouting shrilly, “Go! Leave my house immediately!”

Slapped successively, Lu Muchi also got angry. He roared, “You never cared about me, why do you hit me!”

All the blood drained from Xu Qiaoyin’s face instantly, leaving it completely white. She bit her lip, “I didn’t care about you, but this is not the reason for you to insult Xiao Yan. He is a good child. If you have any anger, vent it on me.”

Lu Muchi glared at her angrily. After a while, he looked away guiltily and asked again: “Where is Yan Heqing?”

Xu Qiaoyin kept her mouth shut and said nothing. Lu Muchi took out his phone and dialed Yan Heqing’s number immediately, but the mechanical voice prompted him—

“The number you dialed is currently busy, please try again later…”

Yan Heqing saw Lu Muchi get out of the elevator in the fire escape, then turned downstairs and took the elevator downstairs.

Walking out of the apartment, light snow began to fall at some point. The sky was dim, and the ground illuminated by street lamps was not very clear.

Yan Heqing walked a short distance. His cold hadn’t healed yet, and his body was very weak. Plus, he was strangled by Lu Muchi just now and couldn’t breathe for a while. He was feeling terrible now. He finally couldn’t help finding a place to squat down, clutching his chest and vomiting, but there was nothing in his stomach, and he couldn’t even vomit acid water.

Squatting motionless for a while, Yan Heqing grabbed the trash can and stood up.

Things deviated a little, but Lu Muchi’s madness was within his plan, although it was a bit disgusting.

Yan Heqing continued forward. He walked very slowly. Following the road, he walked forward for a while until he reached an intersection. He found a very conspicuous landmark, the only convenience store at the intersection.

The convenience store was opposite. He crossed the zebra crossing but didn’t go in.

He walked under the street lamp. He didn’t have much strength left. Leaning against the street lamp, he struggled to take out his phone from his pocket.

He added Lu Muchi’s number first, then dragged him into the blacklist, exited, and pulled all contacts in the address book except Lu Lin into the blacklist.

Then he cleared the call records and text messages.

After doing all this, he dialed 120.

“Hello, I am now at the intersection of Lingqiao Road, there is a convenience store…” The voice became smaller and smaller.

Yan Heqing looked up at the snowflakes falling one after another from the orange light.

The last consciousness stayed on the flashing siren light.

Feeling someone lifting him into the ambulance, Yan Heqing closed his eyes.

——

Approaching the New Year, Lu Lin had more dinner parties.

There was a business dinner tonight.

“President Lu, try this six-head abalone.” The hotel owner served the dish himself and placed the abalone in sauce in front of Lu Lin.

Everyone else was also chatting around Lu Lin.

At this time, Lu Lin’s pocket vibrated. He put down the knife and fork he had just picked up and took out his phone. It was a local landline.

Seeing Lu Lin receive a call, everyone else immediately fell silent. Lu Lin signaled them to continue, pulled out his chair and stood up, opened the door and went to the terrace to answer the phone.

Connected, it was a polite female voice.

“Hello, may I ask if this is Mr. Lu? This is the City No. 2 Hospital Center.”

Lu Lin’s eyebrows condensed slightly, “What is it.”

“It’s like this. One of our patients is now in a coma. He only has your contact information in his phone. Is it convenient for you to come now?”
