14. Ident.i.ty Exposed~ (1)

Xie He was pushed onto the floor and the entire venue was thrown into chaos. Very quickly after, Liang Chengshan was sent to the hospital.

Because of Liang Chengshans orders, his subordinates did not kill Xie He. However, they all glared at him with hostility and roughly shut him into a room. They had to use every last ounce of their self-restraint to hold themselves back from beating him up.

Xie HeAi, its not easy for me either. I have to pretend to be seriously aiming to kill him while also making sure to hold back just enough so that he can be saved. Its a lot harder than having to kill him outright. Sigh.JPG

The atmosphere in the hospital was grave and filled with nervousness. Liang Chengshans subordinates guarded the door to the operating room. All of them had gloomy expressions on.

This was what Bishop saw when he finally reached the hospital. He had been on his way to the wedding when he had found out that something had happened. When he thought of what he had just found out from his investigation, he really regretted not having dug that information out sooner. If he had been just a bit earlierhe could have told Liang Chengshan about it and they could have avoided todays matter.

Boss asked Kenny, Hows Boss?

Kennys clenched fists crackled. He looked downcast. He was stabbed twice by Yang Ling. Theyre trying to save him now. We dont know how hes doing.

Bishops face turned cold. What about Yang Ling?

Kenny answered, with hatred in his voice. We locked him up. Boss wouldnt let us kill him.

Bishop didnt ask anything more. He thought that Yang Ling was extremely dangerous and should not be allowed to live, but Liang Chengshan cared about Yang Ling so much. They would need Liang Chengshans approval to kill Yang Ling. They could not meddle in Boss affairs.

But ifLiang Chengshan diedthen Yang Ling would be killed without a doubt.

The operating room light was on for a very long time. Finally, the doctor came out. Fortunately, Liang Chengshan had been saved. The doctor said to Kenny, Mr. Liangs life is no longer in any danger. But he wont wake up for some time.

Kenny and Bishop sighed in relief. Since Liang Chengshan would be fine, then Yang Lings matter would wait until he woke up. However, they had other things to do right now. After all, such a huge farce had occurred at the weddingit was extremely shameful.

Liang Chengshan felt like he was stuck in a dream. In his dream, he married his beloved young man. The young man wore the wedding ring Liang Chengshan had given him and smiled at him.

He had never loved someone like this before. He had never wanted to use any means necessary to possess a person like this before, to steal him, to make him stay by his side.

He couldnt let go.

Butthe dream was fake. In the end, what awaited him hadnt been a ring but a cold blade to his chest. The person he loved did not love him. He only had hatred for Liang Chengshan.

The beautiful image before him chipped away little by little. All that was left was cruel reality.

Liang Chengshan struggled with everything he had, wanting to wake up. He couldnt keep sleeping. If he didnt wake up, no one would protect his beloved. His beloved would be tortured and killedso he had to wake up.

Liang Chengshan opened his eyes. Every breath he took caused his chest to ache.

The nurse watching over him was excited. They immediately went outside to inform the others. Very quickly after, Kenny came in, visibly stirred up. He said, Boss, you finally woke up.

Liang Chengshan struggled to raise his hand and pull off his ventilator. A weak, hoa.r.s.e voice came out from his throat. Wheres Yang Ling?

As soon as Kenny heard this name, he became enraged. However, when he stared into Liang Chengshans deep, imposing eyes, he didnt dare to refrain from responding. Locked up.

Worry flashed through his eyes. In a low voice, he asked, How many days have I been knocked out?

Kenny said, Six days.

Liang Chengshans expression changed dramatically. He struggled to sit up. Back then, he had only had enough time to tell his subordinates not to kill Xie He. He hadnt had the time to give them any additional instructions. Xie He had been locked up for six days without him. Those people would definitely not have treated him well. Something might have happened to him!

Kenny promptly went over to support Liang Chengshan. Boss, you cant move right now!

Liang Chengshans voice was frigid. Take me to him.

Kenny felt like he was in an extremely difficult position. He thought that Boss was in absolutely no condition to leave the hospital right now. Furthermore, Yang Ling had stabbed him twice at their wedding. Yet not only was Boss not angry, he was even anxious to see him. Even he felt that what Yang Ling had done had been unbearable. However, Kenny had never been good with words. When he saw Boss like this, he knew that no matter what he said, it would be futile.

Just as Kenny was at a loss for what to do, Bishop came in.

Bishop directly said, Boss, weve found out who Yang Ling is. Take a look first before deciding whether to see him.

Liang Chengshans eyes narrowed. He had always really cared about Yang Lings ident.i.ty. He didnt think that they would figure it out now. But compared to Yang Lings ident.i.ty, his life and safety were more important. His expression grew slightly heavy as he said, No, Ill take a look after Ive gone to see him.

Surprise emerged in Bishops eyes. He didnt think that Liang Chengshan cared about Yang Ling this much. Seeing that he wouldnt be able to stop Liang Chengshan, he directly revealed it. Hes Yang Jins son.

Liang Chengshan froze. These words were like a clap of thunder to his ears. They were also like a cold wind, freezing him to the bone, numbing him.

He slowly turned to look at Bishop, his voice trembling. In a quiet, raspy voice he asked, What. Did. You. Say?

Bishop saw that he had finally managed to stop Liang Chengshan. He sighed in relief and took out the doc.u.ments he had prepared. He said it all at once. I already dug it all out. Back then, Yang Jin had a wife. Her name was Ji Ling. This, you already knew. However, Yang Jin also had a child. That child is Yang Ling. I already checked it over many times. Theres no mistake. So, from the start, Yang Ling had come to you for revenge. Because you killed his parents. Forgive me for my frankness, but you should have killed him back then! Hes already tried to kill you three times and he wont ever give up. Letting him live will only put you in danger.

Liang Chengshan pressed a hand against his chest. He felt like it was getting hard to breathe. His eyes were filled with shock and his mind was a mess. This information had finally made him flounder. Liang Chengshan reached out to take the doc.u.ments from Bishop and flipped through them. His hands were shaking. He looked at the photographs attached. Yang Jin, Ji LingYang Ling.

The memories he had specifically tried to forget resurfaced in his mind. Yang Lingwas Yang Jins child.

What had he done?

Back then, he had personally killed his best friend. And now, he had destroyed his best friends only sonwho was also the person he loved the most.

Ah

Jinhes your child, ah.

You actually had a sonI didnt know at all. And now hes come to me for revenge. He came to me looking for revenge.

He came to get revenge for you.

Liang Chengshan suddenly fell over. Kenny was next to him and immediately took him back to the hospital room. He then called the doctor over for help!

The doctor rushed over and immediately gave Liang Chengshan first aid. After some time, he was finally able to stabilize Liang Chengshans condition. The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, What happened? What did you tell Mr. Liang to upset him so much?

Bishop and Kenny remained silent.

The doctor didnt continue probing. He only said, Mr. Liangs condition isnt very good right now. Dont upset him. He has to recuperate in peace.

The two of them nodded.

A long time later, Liang Chengshan woke up again. His eyes were dark and brooding, as if the fit just now had been an illusion. His fist slowly clenched. He said to Kenny, Help me up.

Pain and shock were useless.His beloved still needed him. He couldnt collapse like this. If he were to collapse, Yang Ling would only meet a tragic end.

He had already let Yang Jin down. He couldnt fail to protect Yang Jins only son as well.

Bishop was very concerned. He said, The doctor said that you shouldnt be faced with anything that could upset you.

Liang Chengshans gaze swept over the two of them, his voice low. Are you disobeying my orders?

Kenny lowered his head. I.

Liang Chengshan sighed quietly. I know that youre worried about me buttake me to him now. By the time he finished his words, his firm gaze had an unquestionable look and chilliness inside. Even if his body was weak right now, his might wasnt diminished in any way.

Kenny knew that he couldnt change Liang Chengshans mind. He ended up following the others orders and brought a wheelchair in. He wheeled Liang Chengshan out.

Bishop stared at Liang Chengshans departing figure, a powerless expression on his face.

Liang Chengshan returned to his manor. Everything had been tidied up. There was no longer any of the weddings liveliness to be seen.

The wedding that had held all his hopes and dreams had ended up a farce.

It had been like a fleeting dream.

But it was all his fault. He had wished for something he was undeserving ofYang Ling would not love him. He would never forgive him.

But he only realized this now.

He had fallen in love with a person who would never love him.

Liang Chengshan arrived at the place where Xie He was being imprisoned. He looked at the people guarding the door and spoke in an ice cold tone. Open the door.

They immediately opened the door. At last, Liang Chengshan was able to see Xie He again. Xie Hes wrists and ankles were tied and he laid on the ground. He was very still, not moving at all. For a moment, Liang Chengshan felt all his blood turn cold as fear enveloped him. He couldnt wait for Kenny to push him over. He shot up from the wheelchair at once and staggered towards Xie He, pulling him straight into his arms.

Xie He looked to be sleeping. He didnt react at all. But his body was dirty and his eyebrows were knitted in pain.

The guards took in how nervous Liang Chengshan was over Xie Hes condition and were eternally grateful that they hadnt hurt him. They cautiously explained, We didnt do anything to him. We were afraid hed hurt himself so we tied him up. Furthermore, hed been kicking up a fuss and wasnt willing to rest the whole time so we had no choice but to sedate him.

Liang Chengshans eyes were glued to Xie Hes face. His hands trembled as he reached out to caress the others slightly cool face. This facethis faceshared no similarities with

Ah

Jins. That was why he never thought of that possibility, why he hadnt recognized him.

I finally understand why you hate me. You should hate me.

Im sorry.

Ding, the target Liang Chengshans Favourability Value +2. The current Favourability Value is 96.

Liang Chengshan placed a soft kiss on Xie Hes lips. He undid the others binds and wanted to carry him. However, he didnt have the strength to do that now. Kenny noticed this and respectfully offered his help at once. Ill do it.

Although he hated Xie He to the bone, since Boss cared about him so muchhe would help Boss.

Liang Chengshan let go powerlessly. He nodded and let Kenny carry Xie He out of the room.

Liang Chengshan sat by the bed and stared at Xie He. Even when others tried to persuade him to rest, he wasnt willing to.

His gaze was unfocused. There was pain in his eyes. He once again recalled what had happened many years ago. Back then, he had found Yang Jin, who had gone into hiding. Only then had he found out that not only had Yang Jin been a cop, but he also had had a wife. At that time, Liang Chengshan had been astonished, as well as a bit upset. It was probably because he had suddenly realized that he really hadnt understood his best friend at all.

He had hated Yang Jin for betraying him.

But from Yang Jins point of view, Liang Chengshan had probably been the one in the wrong.

Liang Chengshans hands were stained with blood, sis, and hatredhe had ended many lives. He had already grown accustomed to these things. From the day he had started walking down this road, he had never wanted to turn back. He had only cut through the thorns and thistles as he advanced forward.

They had been on opposing sides.

Liang Chengshan had always known that many people hated him. He had never cared. He had thought that as long as he was strong enough, he would always end up the winner. The people who hated him were nothing but laughable maggots. The shouts of the weak were unworthy of being noticed by him.

Rather than hope for other peoples forgiveness, hed rather rely on himself. Hed rather become someone who controlled everything from up above.

But it was only at this moment that he realized that his heart was not strong enough or cold enough to truly ignore everything. He was actually really afraid of being hated. The hatred of this one person was like a powerful hurricane, destroying everything in its wake. He couldnt bear it.

He had committed many wrongs. Now, the person he loved the most hated him too. This was probably his retribution.

No one could escape karmic retribution.

Liang Chengshan reached out to hold Xie Hes hand. He shut his eyes and recalled the time Xie He had fainted in front of Yang Jin. He finally understood why.

He had done so many ridiculous things. He had destroyed

Ah

Jins only son. He had tortured him, imprisoned him, wrecked himand then taken him to

Ah

Jins grave and told his former best friend that he was going to wed his son.

Ah

Jin must hate him to death.

Ah

Jin had saved Liang Chengshan, but Liang Chengshan had returned the favour not only by killing himbut also by destroying his son.

Liang Chengshan could never forgive himself.

At this time, Liang Chengshan felt Xie Hes hand move slightly. Suddenly, he felt nervous and scared. Ever since he had been a teenager, he had grown used to seeing death and had never felt afraid of facing anything. But at this momenthe was really terrified at the prospect of having to face Xie He.

He didnt know how to face him.

Xie He slowly opened his eyes. These last few days had been torturous. He hadnt been able to rest at all. Later on, they had sedated him and he had just barely been able to sleep. It seemed like he was back on a bed now. His hand was being held by a large, warm hand. There was a faint, comforting warmth emitting from it.

But he knew that this was the warmth from the person he hated the most.

Xie He turned his head and found Liang Chengshan sitting by him. There was deep hatred in his eyes and his tone was frosty. You actually didnt die.

Liang Chengshans face paled. These words froze his already cold heart even more. But he shouldnt have had any delusions over what would happen anyway. From the start, Xie He had wished for his death.

He had come to take revenge for

Ah

Jin.

He had come to settle the debt Liang Chengshan owed him.

A profound pain and a complex emotion filled Liang Chengshans eyes. His lips moved but no words could escape his mouth.

Faced with Xie He, who had his memories intactfaced with the Xie He who now knew who he washe couldnt follow the script he used to follow in times like these. Any comfort, explanation or attempts at inverting the truth would only be laughed at.

He had no right to say any of that.

He didnt even have the right to love him.
