Chapter 5 - The Furious Kitten
As if awakened from the dream, Mo Roulan detached herself from He Jian's arms on hearing the Middle-aged woman's voice. She looked at the woman whose face was covered.
It was she who was the starting road of her destruction.
Mo Roulan's mother was very ill but they didn't have any money to admit her to the hospital. The day before this kidnapping incident her mother suddenly collapsed but she couldn't even admit her to the hospital.
What could a twelve-year-old girl do without money?
The middle-aged woman standing in front of her was living in her neighborhood for two months. When her mother collapsed she didn't think anything and went to this woman asking for help. In these two months, she somewhat knew this aunt as she greeted her every time they met.
On seeing that Mo Roulan wanted some money for her mother's treatment, the middle-aged woman told her that she has a son of around eighteen years old whom she couldn't meet because of her ex-husband. She said that her son was currently in this city and if she could lead him to a certain place where she can meet him then she would give her the money for her mother's treatment.
Twelve-year-old Roulan only remembered how she didn't even know where her father was and agreed to help her.
So when He Jian came out of the restaurant after having his dinner she led his small dog to a secluded area where the woman had asked her. In search of his dog, He Jian followed its footprints.
After some time the woman came with three men who suddenly hit that boy. Hidden behind the wall in that secluded area, Mo Roulan was very shocked and couldn't control her scream. The woman had not expected her to be still there. But now they didn't have any choice as Mo Roulan had seen them so they took her along with the boy.
Before losing her consciousness when she looked at the malicious smiles on their faces and Mo Roulan knew that she had done something very wrong.
That's why after gaining her consciousness she hurried to save him and when she had looked at the boy for the first time closely she was dazed. She couldn't remove her eyes from his angelic face. Her heart shook when she had glanced at his ice-cold blue indifferent eyes. But at that time the only thing she knew that he was in danger because of her so she had saved him at the expense of her life.
But what did she get?
Hate, disgust, accusations, and blame.
In her past life, she thought that she was really responsible for this incident but now thinking on the rational side, if she had not done that then anyone else had volunteered.
Who does not want the money?
And she was in a desperate situation not knowing what she was doing.
Now looking at the boy silhouette she wondered if in this life also, she would be accused of something she had done unknowingly.
"Does it hurt?"
A very gentle voice fell in her ears and her whole body froze. Was he talking to her?
She shook her head in no stiffly and tried to get up.
By her side, He Jian looked at the kidnappers. It seemed like they were specially hired to kidnap him. The situation was not favorable to him. The other side had more strength and he also needed to protect Mo Roulan.
But it didn't waver him and he held the iron rod in his hands tightly. He saw one of them trying to attack Mo Roulan. Very easily, he helped Mo Roulan dodge that attack and hit the man with his rod. The man fell to the ground and others immediately replaced him. Seeing the boy surrounded by two men, the middle-aged woman turned to Mo Roulan who went to the unconscious man to get back her iron rod. But the woman was faster than her and picked it before Mo Roulan could do anything.
Standing in front of her, the woman looked at the girl child with a mocking smile.
" If you have not tried to show off your bravery, I may really have given you the money for your mother's treatment. But now, you can just die here and your mother will also breathe her last at your home. Ha.."
The same words from the past life made Roulan shiver. In the past life, this woman had made her hostage and made He Jian stop beating those kidnappers. After that, she mocked both of them. They were beaten and taken back to the same house. After a day, when she regained her consciousness, she got free again anyhow and freed He Jian also. When they tried to run again, Police had already come to rescue them.
She knew that they will be rescued this time also but she didn't want to be captured this time. She doesn't know what that woman did to He Jian then but the He Jian she found on the next day was very different from before. Even when she met him years after, he hated if anyone touched him or his things without his knowledge.
That's why when someone told him that she was also involved in his kidnapping he had looked at her with disgust and hate.
The remembrance made her so furious that she pushed the woman to the ground and slapped her with her small hands. The woman shrieked and screamed because of an unexpected attack. The rod fell from her hands. Her scream gained He Jian's attention and he glanced at Mo Roulan riding on the woman's stomach and slapping her. He raised an eyebrow and let out a low laugh.
'The small kitten was furious.'
