786 Stop Deluding Yourself

"You know him?" questioned Xiao Li with no emotion in his voice.

"I don\'t," Liu Nuan denied it outright. "Who is he?"

Xiao Li pinched her chin and looked into her eyes, "So you don\'t know who he is?"

She didn\'t back off, "I don\'t know. Why are you asking me? How would I know him?"

"So you\'re not the one who hired the mercenaries through this man?" Xiao Li\'s voice was chilly, now tinged with a furious undertone. "To kill Xiu."

Liu Nuan was scared out of her wits but she didn\'t accept defeat. She knew if she did, it\'d be the end of her.

"W-Why would I hire someone to kill Xiu?" she retorted. "Don\'t try to blame me for something I didn\'t do. The attack on Xiu has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Li glared at her, "If you didn\'t do it, how do you know Xiu had been attacked? I don\'t remember making the news public. The only people who know about the attack had been the ones close to Xiu. And you certainly don\'t make that list."

Liu Nuan frantically tried to look for excuses, "You! You said it yourself that someone hired mercenaries to kill her. How else would I know? Don\'t try to turn me into the culprit."

Xiao Li let her chin go and nodded his head. He turned to the man who was brought in and asked him, "You also don\'t recognize her?" The man had been tortured badly and had no way to lie. So, he nodded his head. "Is she the one who ordered you?"

The man looked at Liu Nuan who was glaring at him dangerously but he was more scared of the people who brought him here. If he knew that the person they were attacking had something to do with the Wen Clan, even if he was given the fortune of the world, he\'d have not taken this mission. Who didn\'t know about the Wen Clan\'s ruthlessness?

"She... She is the one who ordered me," he didn\'t even take a minute before revealing everything. "Please, kill me. I beg you. I\'ve told you what you wanted, so let me die now." The man was smart enough to know that asking for freedom was useless. Asking for a silent death was the greatest mercy he could receive from bloodthirsty demons of this Clan.

"Shut him up!" said Xiao Li as he heard the man\'s wailing. His subordinates immediately struck the back of the man\'s neck with the side of his palm and made him unconscious. Only then did Xiao Li turned back to Liu Nuan as he asked, "What do you have to say now?"

"You\'re trying to frame me!" she shouted. "I didn\'t do anything at all! You\'re just trying to frame me! It\'s all your doing! Just because I sided with Meihui, you\'re taking revenge on me like this! I never did anything wrong!"

After it stopped playing, he went on, "Can you deny this?"

"It\'s not my voice." Obviously, he thought wrong because she really planned on denying it to the end.

"What about your phone records?"

"I lost my phone. I don\'t know anything about it."

Xiao Li stepped closer to her as he said, "Do you really think I don\'t dare to hurt you? I have more than one way to make you open that mouth of yours. You\'re clearly underestimating me right now."

"You can\'t hurt me," she retorted. "My... My mom will be looking for me right now. And my husband as well. You won\'t be able to touch me. If I held on for a while, they\'ll find me."

"But no one even cares about you though," Xiao Li didn\'t plan on being nice. He struck her right where it hurt her. "Neither your mom nor your husband even has a clue that you\'ve gone missing. Why? Because they don\'t care about you." He took a pause and sneered, "Your husband and you had been only married on the papers. He had long severed his ties with you. As for your mom, do you think I\'m blind? I can\'t tell that she had been keeping her distance from you? No matter what her reasons are, she definitely doesn\'t give a damn about your life or death. Or else, how would your husband had been so audacious all this while to treat you like this?"

Liu Nuan crawled back in the corner and hid her face in her knees. As if trying to hide from the reality he spoke of. She couldn\'t deny any of it. And the more she heard, it hurt her. The truth was clear, neither his mom loved her nor did her husband loved her.

"Just because you don\'t wanna hear it, it won\'t change the truth. How long do you think you can hide from it?"

Liu Nuan kept shaking her body as she kept repeating to herself, "Mom loves me. Jinhai loves me. Mom loves me. Jinhai loves me. Mom loves me. Jinhai loves me. Mom loves me. Jinhai loves me."

Xiao Li held her shoulders and shook her, "Wake up! They don\'t love you! Stop deluding yourself!"

Liu Nuan\'s whole body spasmed at his words as she started shouting and her tears fell uncontrollably. She was experiencing a splitting headache right now. His words were hurting her. No, they were stabbing her heart making her bleed. But no one cared! No one cared!

She hit her head against his head to escape from his grasp before she started hitting her head against the wall. The people around hurriedly held her back while she kept screaming before she fell unconscious.
