Chapter 552 - The Past (2/2)

”We've met before?” Upon seeing that his daughter was fine, Chu Lui heaved a sigh of relief, before asking this man that he had no recollection of. He clearly had no impression of him yet, but he felt that this man harbored intense hate towards him. He had hated others before so he was familiar.

”Mr. Chu, great wits sure have short memories. How could you not remember that there was a Feng Yong Enterprise? Four years ago, it got annexed by your company, wasn't that so? I once went to beg you to have mercy on us; however, you treated me like a dog and robbed me of my livelihood.”

As the man spoke, he seemingly recalled something. His gaze grew demented, that intense hatred threatening to engulf him with its flames.

”You acquired my company and caused me to become penniless. My wife was three months pregnant then, but because I had nothing left, she went to the hospital to abort the child. You caused me to lose my son. That's why, Chu Lui, this is all your fault. I wanted you to die without ever having any children. Thus, I went to look for Li Manni and devised my plan for four years. Just as I had thought—in the end, you fell into the palms of a woman.”

”I've even slept with your wife, and she was pregnant with my seed. Even if you had slept with her multiple times, she would never have been able to give birth to your child. Your family line had already been severed. Chu Lui, my gift to you is rather decent, right? How do you like it?”

”That was you?” Chu Lui's eyes narrowed. In his memory, there was a guy with the family name 'Mi'.

”That was me. What, you finally remember? I'm called Mi Dongfeng.” Mi Dongfeng sneered. ”Today, I'm going to get back everything that I have lost. All the things that I've lost, I'll make you—Chu Lui—pay it back just as much. I lost my wife and my child. That's why I'm going to make you accompany me. Oh, yeah, Mr. Chu.” Mi Dongfeng laughed maliciously, his entire body electrified with the thrill of revenge. ”I know what you used to be. That's why don't bother wasting your energy on me. There's never a hundred-percent guarantee. I sure wouldn't dare to invite Mr. Chu over; that's why you should behave. Otherwise, your daughter might end up losing an arm or breaking a leg. Her bones truly are fragile.”

Chu Lui was indifferent to Mi Dongfeng's lunacy. ”If I remember correctly—even if I had not acquired Feng Yong Enterprise, your company would still have gone bankrupt. I was just a step ahead of others. Back then, Feng Yong Enterprise was already empty on the inside; and even if nobody had acquired it—right now, Feng Yong Enterprise still wouldn't be in existence.”

”Impossible!” Mi Dongfeng's voice suddenly spiked up. ”I already had a plan. If I just had a few more days, I could've gotten a loan from the bank. At that time, our Feng Yong Enterprise wouldn't have gone bankrupt; and my wife wouldn't have left me. My child also wouldn't have died. It was all because of you, Chu Lui. If you didn't exist, then who knows how well I would've been living right now?”

”You should know that that isn't possible.” Chu Lui interrupted his delusional rambles. ”Not a single bank would've given you a loan. If that was possible, then I wouldn't even have gotten a chance to purchase your company in the first place. I'm a businessman—as long as there's a profitable business, I'll never just let it go.

”You're a businessman as well. Your successes and failures are all brought about by your decisions. Everything that happened was all your fault. It was your own mismanagement of your business; what did that have to do with anybody?

”If your wife had really loved you, then she wouldn't have left you under those circ.u.mstances where you had nothing. If she had really loved that child, then she wouldn't have easily aborted it. That's why everything that you're saying now is just an excuse for your own failure as a person”

Back then, Xia Ruoxin was also very pitiful. She was forced into a corner, and yet it didn't matter how much she hated him. She still decided to give birth to Rainy. She used everything in her means to raise Rainy, and even if it meant that she had to sell herself, she never gave up on her child.
