The men could not act because Liu Wei had told them not to hurt Liling’s father; after Liu We had given the command; they killed all the men and proceeded inside, that was when they say Yan Ran walking out with a gun pointed at Liling’s father’s head.

Liu Wei pursed his lips; he was thinking of what to do; he had to keep her talking to buy time;

Tears fell from Yan Ran’s eyes as she spoke;

”Liu Wei, if you say that you love me I’ll let him go, I promise. ”

She said in a sad tone and Liling’s body froze; she had to act fast, any moment from now she would blow up her father’s head because she was sure that Liu Wei was not going to say it.

Looking around, she noticed that the fence was very low so took off her slippers and ran to the other end; to the back of the house; quietly; she jumped into the compound, careful not to make any sound;

”Why do you want to hear a lie? ”

Liu Wei asked; he knew he wouldn’t say it but he would not risk making her angrier than she already was;

”Just say it! Say it now, else I’ll pull the trigger. ”

Liu Wei kept quiet as he watched her; even if she was to shoot him; he wasn’t going to utter such abomination.

When Yan Ran saw that he wasn’t going to speak, she laughed;

And in the next second, she kicked Liling’s father away and pointed the gun at Liu Wei;

”I’ve changed my mind; I’m going to kill you instead; since I’ll still die anyway. I know she loves you so I’m going to take you away from her; she is going to know what it feels to love someone she would never be with! …”

Before she could complete her sentence; a hard metal hit her head from behind which sent her falling to the floor, blood gushing out of her broken skull, which was almost ripped in two by the heavy metal;

Liling stood as she watched her blood gush out;

”That was for my baby. ”

She immediately threw away the long metal and ran to Liu Wei; opening her arms, she flew into his embrace, kissing him all around his face;

”Are you okay? Did she hurt you anywhere? ”

Instead of Liu Wei answering; he dropped her down and peeked at her legs;

”Where are your shoes? Why is there so much blood? Did you cut yourself with a glass? ”

His face read worry; as though he was not the one that was being pointed at with a gun just a while now;

Liling peeked at her legs, there was no blood, just a minor graze which was red; it wasn’t even bleeding.

”I left them there; and I got these when I tried to jump the fence. ”

She said with a pout; Liu Wei stared at her, he couldn’t even bring himself to scold her for leaving the house;

Pulling her close to him; he hugged her tight.

”I thought I was going to lose you. ” She said, her hands wrapping around him;

Liu Wei pecked her head;

”I wouldn’t still leave you even if she had shot me. ”

”Silly! ” Liling laughed;

”That was a great hit though; I never knew you were that strong. ”

Liling laughed and turned around to look at Yan Ran and Da Xia’s bodies as the men dragged them away.

”They got what they deserved. ”

She said and turned to look at him;

”Come; let me introduce you to my father ”

She said as she held his hand, taking him to where her father was standing;

”Father, are you okay?”

She asked as they approached;

Mr. Liang nodded, his eyes shifting from her to the man standing beside her;

”Yes I am, it’s all over now.”‘

He said and Liling smiled;

”Yes it is; father I want to introduce you to Liu Wei, my husband; Liu Wei this is my father; ” Mr. Liang couldn’t quantify his joy; he had chased her away, treated her like trash and even though he wasn’t her real father, she had introduced him as her father, tears stung his eyes.

Liu Wei extended his hand to him;

”Nice to meet you sir; ”

He said respectfully;

Mr. Liang nodded; ”It’s nice to meet you too. I see you are taking good care of my daughter. ”

Liu Wei smiled; ”I’m trying my best. ”

They all laughed; after talking for a while; Liling took Liu Wei aside;

”We’ll arrange a place for him to stay before we go home, is that okay? ”

She asked, her eyes blinking;

Liu Wei nodded;

He told them to wait by his car as he went on to address his men;

He ordered them to take Da Xia’s body to the mortuary; he was going to inform her family about her death and what led to it; at least they deserved to know why their daughter died so horribly. As for Yan Ran’s body, he ordered them to burn it.

After taking Liling’s father to a comfortable place; he went home with Liling.

He had never been that happy all his life; he could finally be with her, with no troubles and without them looking over their heads;

Liling was smiling brightly; she felt so fulfilled; although she didn’t teach Da Xia a lesson, she had killed the master planner herself; Yan Ran had caused her so much pain and anguish, now she was gone, she could finally have peace of mind.

As though she remembered something, she turned to look at Liu Wei;

”That reminds me, how did I get into our bedroom? ”

She asked; her eyes widening; Liu Wei chuckled; to think that was when she remembered that she was kidnapped;

”Yes, now I think of it, I was kidnapped… I felt someone cover my nose and mouth with a handkerchief, I tried to struggle but it was of no use cause I was already weak; wait … my drink… that waiter, he gave me the drink! My drink was poisoned! ”

She exclaimed as she connected the dots one after the other;

”Baby, tell me what happened to me? ”

She turned to Liu Wei and asked;

”You were drugged, someone wanted to hurt you. ”
