684 Leads Me To Her (2/2)
Zhou Jinhai looked up at Xin Suyin and narrowed his eyes at her cigarette as if mocking her. She shrugged in reply, ”I'm old enough to lose the will to live. You're still young.” As if suddenly enlightened, she added, ”Or, is it that you hate the limited days you have?”
”Mother-in-law, how can you joke about your son-in-law's life?” he showed an aggrieved look which she rolled her eyes at.
”I heard your mother is in hospital. How is she?”
Zhou Jinahi's lips curled up, ”Shouldn't you know it better?” She raised her brows at him as he went on, ”After all, you pushed her where she is. Although it's being said that she only has a sprained ankle, I think you and I both know what you did to her.”
Xin Suyin blew out clouds of smoke and chuckled, ”Ahh... Once upon a time, you're such a naive little boy. When did you grow up?”
”When you all pushed her to death,” he replied with a smile and without any fluctuation in his expressions.
Xin Suyin's face sank as she threw the cigarette butt away and said, ”Don't say it like you're innocent. If you had been a little stronger, she would have been saved.”
”Yes, I know that,” he didn't refute her words at all. ”If only I had a bit of strength, I'd even love to exchange my own life for hers.” He took a deep breath saying, ”But you all caged me like a dog on a leash. Even my bark was harmless to you all. So, I learned to bite.”
”Just so you know, I won't let your mother go for playing her cheap methods on her back then,” said Xin Suyin. As she had said once, she never played those cheap games but Niu Peizhi was different and she got to know later on how that woman tried to get Chen Xiu raped. That was enough for Xin Suyin to shower wrath on Niu Peizhi in a way that made people's heart freeze in fear. ”I'll make purgatory on earth for her!”
Although he didn't know the details, he did know that Xin Suyin had already kept her words. She had indeed made purgatory on earth for his mother. Just as he had said back then, he'd make each of them gnaw at each other. Right now, each of them was trying to kill each other and this game was becoming even more fun day by day. How amusing!
”It's strange to see you trying to avenge Chen Xiu, what is she to you? Or who is she to you?” questioned Zhou Jinhai in curiosity as if he knew nothing.
”That's none of your business,” replied the latter. As she turned to leave, she didn't forget to say, ”Don't think I'm letting you go. It's just that your karma has already gotten to you. I don't think I'd need to do anything.”
Zhou Jinhai crushed the cigarette that he didn't even lit up as he sneered, ”Indeed. My karma has already found me.” He looked towards the sky and breathed out, ”Now, I just wish it leads me to her.”
