s.h.i.+ Enxi was forced to leave the police station because of what happened. 

While she was on her way home, she couldn't calm herself down. She was boiling in anger after getting w.a.n.g Hao's confession about her parents.

All this time, her parent's killer was running free, enjoying his life. He was the one who ruined the family that s.h.i.+ Enxi cared for. He ruined her life.

Upon reaching her place, she was greeted by Mo Jing when she entered.

"Welcome back, Xixi" The elderly woman greeted her. "Dinner will be ready shortly."

s.h.i.+ Enxi tried to smile at her, "Thank you Nanny Mo but I'll be skipping tonight's dinner. Has my husband arrived?"

"Yes, he's currently in his study." Mo Jing noticed that something was wrong with s.h.i.+ Enxi, maybe it was because of how stiff her smile was. "Is everything alright?"

s.h.i.+ Enxi nodded a bit, "Yes. I'm just a bit tired. I'll be going to my room now to rest."

Mo Jing watched s.h.i.+ Enxi climbed up the stairs.

s.h.i.+ Enxi hasn't been at home ever since Lu Mello brought her out for their date. She was living together with Fan Xiao Yao even on weekends because of their busy schedule.

Since the shooting for the miniseries was almost done, there were a couple of movies that were offered for Fan Xiao Yao. This time, s.h.i.+ Enxi chose a modern romcom movie ent.i.tled 'Please Notice Me, My Wife."

After changing her clothes, s.h.i.+ Enxi lied down on the bed, hugging a pillow.

She wanted w.a.n.g Hao to suffer. She really wanted him to die a horrible death! But before that, she wanted to know everything about her parent's death.

She wasn't able to remain calm earlier because of the sudden revelation. She was always sensitive when it came to her parents.

Tears welled up in her eyes at the thought of her parents. If she was able to kill w.a.n.g Hao back then, she would never have discovered the real cause of her parents' death.

If only she could go back in time and warn her parents about w.a.n.g Hao then maybe she could save them!

"Dad... Mom... I will do my best to bring justice to the both of you..."

She buried her wet face on the pillow, her sobs were m.u.f.fled by the soft pillow.

Just then, a knock was heard and Lu Mello entered the room, s.h.i.+ Enxi's back was facing him. "I heard from Nanny Mo that you wanted to skip dinner."

Upon hearing Lu Mello's voice, s.h.i.+ Enxi turned to him, her face wet and puffy. 

Lu Mello stopped on his tracks and was surprised when she saw her crying. "W-wha..."

s.h.i.+ Enxi jumped out of the bed and pounced on him. She was hugging him tight and her cries became louder like that of a child's. She missed her parents so badly, she wanted to see them, to hug them, to talk to them, hear their voices.

She was like a lost child at that moment. Lu Mello was so confused on why she was crying so hard out of nowhere. Why was she crying? Who made her cry?

Lu Mello hugged her by her waist and supported her, he didn't say a word. He patiently waited her to calm down. It was impossible to talk with her if she was crying this way.

When she managed to calm down, Lu Mello made her sit on the bedside.

s.h.i.+ Enxi's eyes were red as she turned her gaze to him. "Won't you ask?"

"Are you ready to talk?"

s.h.i.+ Enxi was touched with what he said. Lu Mello was really kind and sweet. She leaned and rested her head on his shoulder. "I missed my parents..."

Did she cry because of that?

"Today... I found out that... My parent's didn't die because of an accident... They were killed."

"What?" Lu Mello was shocked at her words. "Killed?!"

"Yes... It was w.a.n.g Hao... All this time... It was always him." She turned to Lu Mello and held his hand tightly, "I tried to kill him back then, Mello. It was me who caused his accident. You were right, it was me who was behind it all."

"I know." Lu Mello calmly replied.

What's this? Why was he not surprised? She was confessing her sins to him and yet, he still has gentle look in his eyes.

"I... I tried to kill my own brother. It was me who was giving him poison."

"I know."

"Will you arrest me?"

Lu Mello lightly shook his head, "No, I will not."

What kind of detective was he? She was already confessing to him and yet he won't take actions against her?!

"Why? Why won't you arrest me? This should be enough to get me in one, right?!"

"Have you ever regretted poisoning you brother?"

She was caught off guard by his question. Why? Why was Lu Mello acting this way? Shouldn't he be angry at her that she lied to him?

"You regretted it, right? If not, your brother has been longed killed by you."

Her lips was stretched into a thin line. She lowered her head and let go of his hand. 

The reason why she was confessing her sins to him was because she wanted to be honest with him. She was afraid that if he found out later on that she really was the mastermind, she couldn't bring herself to think of him hating her.

"I will never regret on the thing I did to w.a.n.g Hao. I will always want to kill him. That desire is stronger now."

Lu Mello sighed upon seeing how serious s.h.i.+ Enxi was. The killing intent in her eyes could make someone cower in fear. He wrapped his arms around and rested his chin on top of her head. "You said back then that you were going to leave him and his family to me."

"No, I can't do that anymore. w.a.n.g Hao killed my parents, I need to deal with him, myself."

"Then let me help you. I don't want my adorable wife to turn into a criminal. You can't kill him, Xi'er. With all the evidence against him, he'll be proven guilty tomorrow."

"And then what? He's going to live his peaceful days in the prison? I want to make him suffer! Torture him! Feed him to the dogs! Burn him alive! Crush his bones and-"

Lu Mello placed his finger on her lips to make her stop, "Hush, darling. Don't say such vulgar things." 

He looked at her and smiled, "Do you think that he'll have a peaceful life in prison? Trust me, sweetheart, I'll make him suffer there."

She slapped his finger away and scoffed in disbelief, "How will you make him suffer there?"

"I know someone who would love to have a new plaything. Once he'll be transferred to the main jail, he won't have it easy."

He slipped his hand under her s.h.i.+rt, he started planting kisses on her neck, "Sweetheart, your enemies are my enemies. They have to get through me first."

s.h.i.+ Enxi placed her hands on his chest, trying to stop him. "M-Mello, stop it... I'm not in the mood."

"But I am. You're looking so s.e.xy right now." He continued touching her body, kissing her by her jawline. He used his weight to make her lie down.

Was this man blind? She knew how ugly she looked like after crying!

"Mello... I'm tired... And sleepy."

"We haven't seen each other for so long, sweetheart. I've missed you so much."

"..." What did he mean by not seeing each other for so long? He was visiting her in her dorm every week!

"Just one round, please?"

"I won't disturb you after."

"... Fine... Just one round."
