Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 221 The Suicide
madam liu was still in dilemma if she should prepare a big celebration or a simple but intimate one when mr. liu sat beside her.
“what do you think is better?” she asked and explained to her husband her dilemma.
“how about asking them?” mr. liu simply answered while he took the book he was reading yesterday.
“i already did but they said it’s up to me.” madam liu responded as she weighed the pros and cons of having a banquet or a simple celebration with family members and some close friends.
“i don’t want the celebration to be like their wedding. if it wasn’t as secretive as it was, then the issue about chen dewei could have been avoided.” she continued.
if the world knew that her son was already married to han meixiu, then her daughter in law’s name wouldn’t be dragged in a scandalous situation. although in the end it wasn’t really damaging, she became popular which made her uncomfortable.
it was a good thing they’re not living in q city. otherwise, they wouldn’t have a peaceful life.
“come to think of it, chen dewei already committed suicide out of shame?” madam liu. even though the young man was her son’s rival in a way, as a mother she couldn’t help but feel a bit sad.

“that’s the best way to save the entire family.” mr. liu nonchalantly replied.
“what do you mean?”
sacrificing one’s life for the sake of the entire clan?
“given the scandal about the chen family’s current head coveting a married woman is already a big deal. not to mention she’s married to little zi. do they really want to provoke the liu family? do you think the old geezers of chen family will just sit back and do nothing?”
it’s true. after the event occupied the entire country, chen family was severely criticize. majority of their projects were halted and some were even cancelled.
liu family didn’t need to do anything. they just watched from the sidelines as the chaos continued to affect the chen family negatively.
if the liu family indeed move, chen family would have been destroyed. it wasn’t because they didn’t want to settle scores but someone already asked to be the one to tie up the lose ends. thus, mr. liu simply watched from the sidelines.
besides, it was only one person who committed the crime, why punish the entire clan?
chen family wasn’t the same as han family that was reeking with illegalities.
madam liu sighed. these big and powerful families in q city would do anything to save their faces. even sacrificing their own kin. but then again, if chen dewei didn’t harbor those kinds of thoughts in the first place, nothing would have happened to him.
madam liu remembered the news that was briefly shown. it said that chen dewei blown up an entire mansion. both his body and the woman who looked like han meixiu were found. it was said that the mansion was specially prepared for ‘han meixiu’ and now that she’s married, it lost its purpose.
if they’re still in q city by the time they heard the news, madam liu would probably hear more information about the sensational news.
“but, did that kid really died?”
madam liu knew that in some cases, news wouldn’t be real as it could be manipulated especially with powerful families.
“who knows? one thing is for sure, he’s not with the chen family and he will probably never come back.” mr. liu dismissively said and urged his wife to quickly decide.
“so, he’s alive somewhere.” madam liu sighed. she knew that her husband wasn’t telling her everything but decided not to pry anymore. the information is probably not relevant to her, thus she let it go.
“i just hope he won’t bother our babies in the future.”
“he won’t.”
upon hearing her husband’s answer, madam liu smiled subtly. with that level of confidence when mr. liu spoke, she didn’t need to worry anymore.
indeed, mr. liu is confident that chen dewei wouldn’t be able to bother his son and his family.
he simply trusts zhang huiling. like him, she surely would not want anymore disturbance in her own daughter’s family.

after watching the provided video to her, zhang huiling stood up and walked towards the window.
the people below looked like black dots that were constantly moving, unaffected of whatever is happening in the world.
people are naturally selfish. they have their own priorities. even though they lost something, they wouldn’t dwell on that for a long time and would eventually moved on, especially if that something became irrelevant.
she smirked. she only provided the necessary ‘evidence’ to finally cut off that man and those hungry wolves waiting for his downfall immediately grabbed the opportunity to finally remove him from his position.
zhang huiling picked up the empty tea cup and walked slowly towards the corner of her office when she heard bolin’s knock.
“come in.”
after bowing respectively, he began his report in a detailed and organized manner.
“leader, about red’s request…”
“include her.” she answered.
although the mission would be quite complicated and her chosen partner was not yet well-experienced, zhang huiling was confident red could pull it off.
the only problem would be, if the client would choose her. normally, she wanted red to do another mission but the person was obviously helping 92 to ascend in the ranking. as someone who wanted a fast development of 92, she would surely support subtly.
she just hoped she would really grow into someone who could protect herself thus she, zhang huiling, could fulfill the promise she made with han mingxia’s mother.
it might not be the one bai minghua envisioned but this method was the only way she could provide to han mingxia in order for her to be strong. besides, it was the young woman’s decision to join. her action saved her, zhang huiling, time.
she gained another trusted person and she could fulfill her promise. it’s killing two birds with one stone.
to be strong in this dark world.
“prepare the male patient in three days. i’ll be visiting him.” zhang huiling ordered before dismissing bolin.

the shopping tired out not just han meixiu but liu zijian as well. it was his first time accompanying someone to shop. although he was able to persevere, he didn’t want to do it again.
he really didn’t get the notion of visiting multiple stores to compare the clothes. besides, they could simply buy everything and let it be delivered at their doorsteps.
but seeing han meixiu’s expression as she changed from one dress to another and waiting for his comment, he thought it wasn’t really that bad.
his statements were composed of only two sentences.
‘it’s good.’
‘it suits you.’
later on, before han meixiu dozed off in the car, she murmured something.
he wasn’t sure if it was for him since she mentioned comments.
was she talking about his comments? were they too simple?
but he was telling the truth. the dresses she wore suited her well and their good.
should he say more? but what?
of course, second young master liu wasn’t proficient when it comes to women’s fashion nor elaborated compliments.
han meixiu on the other hand wasn’t expecting about over the top compliments. she just wanted a detailed comments like what her best friend used to say and mommy yi’s analysis.
since she knew her husband wasn’t someone to lie, she accepted his short answers. they were genuine anyway.
originally, liu zijian booked a table in one of the famous restaurant in the entire k country but after seeing han meixiu’s exhaustion, he decided to reschedule it.
it would be better for her to take a rest. she would enjoy the dinner outside if she’s in excellent condition.
also, in few days time, they would meet doctor tang. he could then receive a proper instruction on how to take care of his wife.
