Master Xiao, Your Wife Has Reborn

Chapter 53: Begging for Mercy

“Dead or alive, if you try something funny on me, you’re all going to get cut to pieces,” Yu Haiyang threatened, narrowing his eyes. He was positive if anything were to happen to him, his uncle would avenge him.

The men with the helmet on cackled. One of them pointed to Yu Haiyang, his tone sarcastic, “I can’t tell if you’re dumb or putting up an act because we’re all wearing helmets. Our eyes here—we altered them using makeup too. If we decide to kill you tonight, your uncle won’t find us. So what if he’s powerful and supreme? No one in the world could have recognized us, even our mothers.”

Yu Haiyang could only clench his fists tight.

When the gang of men saw how headstrong he was, their audacity swamped. They noticed the girl behind him and teased, “Why the glum look, Master Yu? Should anything happen, you’ll still have the pretty lady with you through thick and thin. Oh, I know—you’ll be ward mates, too, having the company of one another. Isn’t that great?”

Yu Haiyang looked over his shoulder, but Su Xue already shook his hand off, her face white as a ghost as she stared at the men in horror, tears welling up in her eyes. “No. Don’t hurt me. I barely know him. Please! He’s your enemy, isn’t he? You can have him. There’s no need to hurt an unarmed, fragile girl like me. I’m innocent.”

As Su Xue begged for mercy, it fanned the arrogance and the taunting even more. “What the hell, bro? So this is what you call your h*e? I thought you two got something real going on. But this? It’s a ‘plastic’ relationship.”

Yu Haiyang tightened his grip, looking at Su Xue in disbelief. He’d wanted to beg them to let her go in the first place, and even pathetically, he’d thought she’d stay for him just like when they were little. Rain or shine, no matter how bad it was, she’d put on her bravest front. Yet, he’d never imagined her being so afraid of death. The words she’d said for the sake of her survival: barely knew him? They grew up together, for goodness sake.

Su Xue didn’t care what Yu Haiyang thought of him. She cared nothing but only herself, and that’s how the world works—selfishness. She did this to survive, to live a better future. And that would be becoming Mrs. Xi Chenxiao. There was no way she’d go from healthy to cripple over one night.

Almost teasingly, the bikers spoke, “Well, it’s not like we can’t let you go. Not if you spit at Yu Haiyang, tell him he’s trash, and kneel before us.”

Without second thoughts, Su Xue got to her knees and groveled.

“Haha!” the men burst into laughter. “Good girl. Such a darling. Now go spit at him.”

Su Xue got up immediately, eyes full of satire as she spat at Yu Haiyang. “Dumb*ss. The only thing you know is causing trouble wherever you go, dragging me down with you. From now on, we’re finished.”

She turned back to the bikers. “How about that, guys? Are you happy? Can I leave now?”

Yu Haiyang let out a self-deprecatingly smile. Never in his dreams did he expect Su Xue to behave that way. His eyes were full of disappointment.

Forget it. Yu Haiyang had protected her, but she abandoned him. He had repaid his debt, and from now on, he owed her nothing.

He had already repaid her for saving his life in the past. From now on, he no longer owed Su Xue Anything.

“Mm. Hurry up and get your *ss out of here. You’re standing in our way to get this guy’s *ss kicked.” As they were more than satisfied to see Su Xue leave, one of them sent Yu Haiyang flying with a kick next.

Yu Haiyang landed near Su Jin, a fountain of blood forced out of his mouth.

Su Jin winced—how the hell did he get here? She was only trying to rubberneck.

When Su Xue saw how they sent Yu Haiyang flying and coughing out blood, she ran away in fear.

Partially conscious, Yu Haiyang lay on the ground, watching the girl flee with so much disappointment written on his face—that was a complete 180 compared to the girl who’d save him undauntingly when he was little. Had it not been Su Xue who’d admitted she was his savior, he’d never have believed it.

Holding her helmet, Su Xue smirked as she watched Su Xue bolt. It seemed that her doing had completely broken Yu Haiyang’s heart. Maybe it wasn’t a bad thing after all—Yu Haiyang got to see her true colors finally..
