His heart seemed to stop beating .
He bent over to pick up the metal rod . Still grabbing onto her hair, he pulled her over to the metal bucket . It was full of charcoal and ashes .
There was also a bottle of gasoline and a lighter beside it . He bent over and poured the entire bottle of gasoline into the bucket . He then lit it up with the lighter and put the rod in .
His actions terrified Tang Feiling . She realized what he was doing and yelled, “Ansheng, don’t . You can’t do this to me . ”
She tried to break free from his grasp .
But she was no match for Ming Ansheng . She watched the burning red triangular metal . Ming Ansheng’s gaze was fiery .
He picked up the rod .
“No… No…”
“Ahhh…”
The woman’s dreadful cries reverberated within the warehouse . It woke Su Yue even further .
She opened her eyes . They widened when she saw the scene before her .
The tall man pinned Tang Feiling against a wall, giving off a murderous aura .
She opened her small mouth, wondering if she was in a dream .
Was that Uncle Ming?
She had decided not to think about him, but at that moment, her pain and grievances resurfaced uncontrollably when she saw him .
How she longed for his embrace . How she longed for his comfort .
Her eyes glistened with tears and she gritted her teeth, her breathing inconsistent .
“Tang Feiling, you b*tch!”
Ming Ansheng threw the rod aside and grabbed her head, roughly flinging her to the side .
Tang Feiling fell to the ground, both sides of her face bleeding . She opened her arms, not daring to touch her face, rolling on the floor in pain .
It startled Su Yue when she saw her face .
“Yueyue . ”
The tall man was already before her . His gentle, heart-aching, trembling voice made her lost and confused .
She peered up at him and said in a daze, “She… She’s your fiancee . ”
She hadn’t eaten since yesterday and was in pain the entire night . She was weak and frail, her voice a whisper .
But Ming Ansheng heard her clearly . He looked at her, his lips curling in a smile full of heartache . “Silly girl, you’re the one I like . ”
He had thought he would have a hard time confessing, and it would be heated and passionate if he ever did it .
Never did he expect his confession to be so calm .
However, Su Yue’s heart fluttered wildly at his calm confession .
She peered up at him, staring at him unblinkingly . All of a sudden, all her pain faded away .
She wasn’t delighted nor angry—she was shocked .
“I’m sorry . I brought this on you,” Ming Ansheng apologized, squatting down before her .
He untied her .
Looking at the girl before him, no words could describe how guilty he felt towards her .
He should control his feelings . He should face them, brave and unrestrained .
Su Yue’s body fell limply to the side when he had loosened all the ropes .
“Yueyue . ” Ming Ansheng nimbly caught her, carrying her small frame with ease .
The 18-year-old girl felt extremely light in his arms .
Heart-aching, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently .
