The Villain's Wife

The Villain’s Wife 451 Tricked

"She’s not your wife." Zhou Jingren calmly said.

"That’s only because your father kidnapped her! He stole her from me!"

"You know that is not true!" Zhou Dae Un chimed in. She sent a disgusting look at Zhou Kang. "There is no way that I will like you no matter what you do!"

"See?" Zhou Kang gestured towards Zhou Dae Un, his eyes turned towards Zhuo Jingren. "My Lingling... used to be so sweet and... kind and gentle! Look what happened after your father took her? She had become... like this after your father took her!"

Disbelief flashed in Zhou Dae Un’s eyes. How could someone live in his own world and act like this?

"Give her to him," Zhou Jingren’s cold voice surprised both Zhou Dae Un and Zhou Kang. Silence followed his words as Zhuo Kang almost ran towards Zhou Dae Un, elation apparent in his face.

However, before he could reach her, a loud bang echoed. Slowly, he felt his leg ached before he lost his balance and fell on the floor. The thought of being shot immediately made Zhou Kang react. He tried to raise his gun to shoot Zhou Jingren but the man holding Zhou Dae Un was quick to disarm him. "What are you doing?" he glared at Zhou Jingren. "I could blow this..."

"Oh... shut up!" the loud sound of metal clanking followed Zhou Dae Un’s words. She walked towards Zhou Jingren’s side. "Fool." She uttered.

"What..." Zhou Kang’s face turned ugly as he realized that they played him. Seeing Zhou Dae Un in chains made him think that Zhou Jingren was serious in giving him his mother. He glared at Zhou Jingren, venom laced his eyes. "You tricked me!"

Zhou Jingren knew that Zhou Kang was unstable. He knew that the easiest way to manipulate him was using Zhou Dae Un, so he took advantage of this and used his mother as bait. "You used your mother to trick me! How dare you!?" In Zhou Kang’s mind, Zhou Jingren was a monster for using her mother like this. "How could you... She abandoned you? Why are you still protecting her?" he asked.

"I’m not." Zhou Jingren shrugged and approached him, his gun still pointed at Zhou Kang’s head. "You have been disturbing my peace lately." Right now, all Zhou Jingren wanted was to fly to Yunnan and retrieve Lily. However, he needed to tread carefully. He knew that Jack is watching his every move. Because of this, Zhou Jingren developed a plan.

He needed to show Jack that he is convinced of Lily’s death. He needed to hide the fact that he was already looking for her. So he showed him a great show. "I am still grieving for my wife and you — you just can’t stop bothering me."

Zhou Kang stared at him, speechless. So he was not protecting his mother, but is only upset that Zhou Kang bothered him? What kind of reasoning is this?

"So..." Zhou Jingren continued. "How does it feel?" He squatted near him and watched as blood flow from his wounded leg. "How does it feel to almost grasp... your dream?"

Zhou Jingren smiled when he saw Zhou Kang’s pupils dilate. "This is how to feels to have something taken from you... Mr. Zhou." He said. "You know what is more painful than that wound?"

Zhou Kang opened his mouth, yet no words came.

"It’s the fact that you almost got her, held her in your arms. Almost... that is a very painful word." Zhou Jingren said. "If I won’t kill you now... I am sure that you will have nightmares of what happened today until the day you die."

"Kill me?" Zhou Kang sneered. "My men are outside! Waiting for me... If they will not see me come out in twenty minutes... they — they will blow up this place!"

"What men?" Zhou Jingren asked. "Oh..." he shifted his gaze towards the entrance. "You mean them?"

It was as if a cold bucket of water was poured inside Zhou Kang as he watched his men being dragged by men that he did not recognize. He scowled. "You useless piece of s***! You are all useless! I should have just killed you when I had the chance! Useless!" At this point, if Zhou Kang regretted something that is only not gathering more useful people on his side before coming in here. He had truly underestimated Zhou Jingren.

Of course, he still thought that this situation was Zhou Jingren’s fault and not his. He shifted his vile glare at Zhou Jingren. "You caused this! You ruined everything!"

However, Zhou Jingren only snorted and looked at Zhou Dae Un. "Is he really this... crazy? Or today was an exception?"

Zhou Dae Un nodded. "His father refused to address this issue. He was never diagnosed with a mental disorder, but... everyone in the family knew that he had one."

"I’m not crazy, you little b****!" he cursed. Realizing that he just cursed to Zhou Dae Un, Zhou Kang’s eyes widened. "I — Lingling... I apologize. I did not mean to say that. Please don’t be mad Lingling... it won’t happen again, alright?"

Zhou Jingren shook his head as he heard Zhou Kang continue to plead. He stood and walked towards his mother. "He is about to arrive soon." She nodded in response.

"I’m sure he will freak out." She said. "He never approved of this plan, after all."

"Well... I believe it is already taken cared of." He eyed Zhou Kang who was muttering incomprehensible words. "What are you planning to do with him? Are you going to give him to the police?"

She shrugged. "To be honest... I just want to finish this. I want to dispose of him. But... I will still wait for your father to decide." She eyed Zhou Kang before letting out a sigh. "Listen... about Lily..." she said, her voice lowered.

"I know... I am already in Mainland China. It won’t be that difficult to... go to Yunnan from here."

"It was already confirmed, right?" He nodded in response.

"Good... I hope everything will turn out all right." She said. "I hope... when this is done... I will get to meet her in person."
