Chapter 90: He is not him!

The Xiang’s had come to the Liu villa today.

“Dear, why do you think Liu Hai called us here?”, Mother Xiang asked.

“I don’t have any idea. I hope everything is okay.”, Father Xiang said.

The butler said that he was in the garden so they made their way there. They saw him happily watering the plants.

“Liu Hai.”

He stopped and turned. He smiled and said, “Ah, Xiang Wei. Xiang Qingge. Come, let’s have some tea.”

They settled down and Xiang Wei asked, “So, how are things going on?”

He said. “Good. Just…”, He paused.

Xiang Wei asked, “What? Any problem?” Xiang Qingge also got worried.

“There seems to be some tension between Jinhai and Huian.”

“What?”, he asked worriedly. Just a week back when Huian had come to visit them, everything was fine.

“I don’t know. But since a while back, I find her very scared or nervous about something. She gets panicky quite often. I think that’s why…she behaved so inappropriately with Nana.”

They were confused. “Huh? Nana? Who?”

“The same girl who Jinhai had his last dance with, in their anniversary celebration. I don’t know what got in her but she accused Nana of seducing Jinhai, just seeing some photos the staff jokingly clicked. This happened a few days back.”

He told them the whole incident.

Both were stunned.

“What? I can’t believe Huian would act like this.”, Xiang Qingge showed disbelief.

Liu Hai shook his head, “Nana is a very nice girl. I had personally liked her for my Jing but my sister beat me to it by choosing her for Jianyu. I was very disappointed.”, he narrowed his eyes, “I don’t understand why she would suddenly feel so insecure about her marriage.”

Silence.

They remembered how she dirtied a girl during their elementary school when that girl had confessed to Jinhai.

I can’t believe even now she hit a girl…, both thought.

“Well…you know how Huian had always chased Jinhai from when she was little. She had confessed to him so many times but he was never interested in her more than a friend. But then they suddenly came with the news that they are married. Huian was so happy. And we know Jinhai was never interested in any other girl. So, I don’t understand her insecurity now.”

Liu Hai stared at them. “I get the feeling that she is hiding something. She is keeping something to herself.”

Xiang Wei was about to reply but then he remembered how Huian was panicking when a maid had given her a letter when she was at the Xiang’s villa. At that time he thought it may be because of the child topic but now…he was not sure anymore.

Xiang Qingge was also reminded of the same event.

Liu Hai went on, “And maybe because she is hiding something, it is causing a strain in their relationship. Jinhai is also feeling odd about her behavior. She is always in a daze and gets jumpy when someone calls her.”

Xiang Qingge said, “We will talk to her. I’m sure she will open up to me.”

Xiang Wei nodded. He cannot see his daughter in stress.

Liu Hai smiled, “Sure. After all, as parents how can we see our children in…pain?”, he said the last word smiling sadly.

Nana, Suyin, and Huian were in the car when Huian spoke first, “So, Suyin. How is your business going?”

She smiled, “Yeah, it’s going great. We just won a deal.”

“Congrats.”, She sighed, “At least your days go by at work. Jinhai is always at the office and even at home he works all night, so I get really bored.”

Something stirred inside Nana when she heard his name. It was a while since she heard anything about him.

“That’s sad. Maybe it is a huge deal this time.”, Suyin was talking but all her attention was on their reaching destination. She signaled the driver and he quietly nodded.

We will reach the place anytime now and then Nana…you are finished, Suyin thought.

After five minutes, Nana observed something strange.

“Um, Miss Tang, are we going in the right direction? This place…the people here don’t look right to me.”

“Oh no, it’s fine. Don’t worry.”, she was discreetly searching for Sun Dong and his men but couldn’t find them.

Nana was still feeling uncomfortable.

The car reached the place and the driver purposely slowed down when suddenly a group of men attacked the car.

“Get out of the car!”, a man shouted.

Nana and Huian both jolted. Huh? W-what is going on?

Suyin smirked. Plan begins.

The men started banging on the doors and the car stopped. They forcibly opened the door.

Huian screamed, “What!? Who are you? How dare you block us!?”

Nana was also panicking.

The driver started acting to panic but before he could even do that, one of the men smashed his head on the steering wheel. Blood starts trickling and he fainted.

Nana and Huian were horrified.

Suyin was shocked and startled. T-this was not the plan. He was only supposed to act of getting knocked out. Why did they really hit him?

Then she saw them. And she trembled in fear.

Where is Sun Dong? These are not his men!
