"Stop! I'm fine," Xue Liang said as he stood up and dusted off his clothes. "Lower your guns. No one is allowed to harm him," he added, before looking straight at Li XinWen. Instead of fear, his eyes were filled with excitement and desire.
'This man... something is wrong with his head. Wouldn't normal people be afraid if they suddenly throw up blood after being pushed away?' Li XinWen was frowning as he stared back at Xue Liang. By now, Xue Rui had also stood up and went to Li XinWen's side, ready to protect him if needed.
"Xiao Rui... you better protect your man well. If before, I was only interested in him because of his looks, now, I want to completely dominate and possess him. I felt that it was only right to tell you as the older brother," Xue Liang said before smiling at Li XinWen. "XinWen, I don't know what happened earlier but since you've lit this fire in me, you better be prepared... We'll meet again someday."
"I don't want to see you again," Li XinWen replied.
"Ah, but I do. And there is nothing you can do about it."
"If I see you again, I might end up killing you," Li XinWen warned.
Xue Liang just laughed after hearing Li XinWen's declaration then waved his hand. "Xiao Rui, why don't you tell him what'll happen if I die, hmm? Be sure to tell him clearly so he won't do anything he'll regret," he said before he finally left with his men.
Li XinWen stared at Xue Liang's figure until it disappeared around the corner. He then turned around to face Xue Rui. "Explain."
Xue Rui didn't reply immediately. Instead, he just gave Li XinWen a pained look. The emotion in his eyes was extremely complicated and it somehow made Li XinWen worry.
"Rui-ge?"
"Did... he really force you in the hotel?" Xue Rui's voice was nothing more than a whisper.
A sigh escaped Li XinWen's lips before he looked straight at Xue Rui. He himself was still confused by what was happening. 'But based on Xue Liang's words earlier, this Xue Rui never actually had sex with the original Li XinWen. So those memories must have been Xue Liang who impersonated Xue Rui?'
"XinWen..." Xue Rui called out to him.
"He did," Li XinWen decided to just tell him the truth. Xue Rui's next action shocked Li XinWen. He went to a nearby trash can and kicked it hard to let out his anger.
"Fuck! I shouldn't have trusted him!" Xue Rui continued kicking the poor trash can until his anger subsided. Li XinWen simply let him continue and walked back to the black plastic bag that he had been searching through before the exchange involving the police officer and Xue Liang. He continued to rummage through it which made Xue Rui stop assaulting the trash can. "XinWen... what are you doing?"
"Looking for something. Don't worry, continue beating that trash can until you've calmed down. Then you can explain what is it between you and your brother and why I can't just go ahead and kill him."
"There is nothing to explain..."
"So what will happen if I 'accidentally' kill him?" Li XinWen asked.
"... He's the head of the underworld... if he's dead, then everything will be in chaos. Those gangs that he had suppressed will go to war," Xue Rui answered after a slight hesitation.
"Hmm, I see. It looks like your family really isn't simple. One is a great businessman who dominated the business world, one is a gang leader that conquered the underworld, then what does your eldest brother do? Controls the government?" Li XinWen asked in a joking manner.
"Technically, he is a man within the government... He's serving in the army. I believe his current rank is a Major General?" Xue Rui answered and Li XinWen stopped his search to look at Xue Rui.
"Just what kind of karma did your father accumulate in his last life to have this kind of blessing?!" Li XinWen felt that for someone to have sons like Xue Rui and his brothers in three different territories is indeed something to be jealous of. That would be like having a child who's a genius in alchemy, one child a genius in crafting, and another genius in arrays creation. Even the heavens would be envious!
