My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 539: Loving You Is Akin To Being At A Tiger’s Mouth, I Have Escaped Danger

She bent her body down in front of the bed stand, before taking out a key to open the lowest drawer on the bottom.

There was an exquisite box inside the drawer, and she used both of her small hands to take out the box out.

The box was open, and the entire room was illuminated.

Inside the box were the items that she’d gotten from Yin Muchen over these three years, and they were items that he gifted to her when they were together.

The box was full of jewels and precious pearls. The small ones were worth fifty thousand, and the large ones were items like a cheque worth five hundred thousand, and also the business contracts that he gave her.

He once said while laughing, “You were together with me for the past three years, and you are already a millionaire.”

Heh, she had money now.

Yin Shuiling hugged the box in her embrace before she stood up straight. She stepped out of the villa and went to the garden behind the villa. She found a good place, and dug a small hole in the mud before burying the entire box inside.

She covered the hole back up with mud, and she placed the small flower on top before standing up to leave.

The night was silent. Yin Muchen was alone in the study as he sat down in the office chair. He received a picture message, and it was a picture of a winter rose. The message below the picture was the floriography of the winter rose — Chasing after Love.

Yin Muchen’s line of vision landed on the last word- — Love?

Love...

Had she given it to him in the past?

Yin Muchen had yet to get an answer, and his subordinate sent a name list for the Gaokao examinations. Yin Shuiling ranked first in arts in the entire T City. She was ranked third in sciences, and with these good results, she was sponsored to further her studies in England.

...

The day she was going to leave, Yin Shuiling, Fan Chengsi, and a few good friends were gathered in a bar to drink with one another.

Yin Shuiling was apologetic as she looked at Fan Chengsi. “Fan Chengsi, I am sorry, I have caused you to be entangled in this mess.”

Fan Chengsi had a smile on his bright, handsome face. “Shuiling, it’s fine. Yin Muchen just gave me two punches. I am a masculine man. This bit of pain is not much, hah.”

Actually, Fan Chengsi brushed this off simply. That day, Yin Muchen locked him up, and that man beat him up as if he were crazy. He almost beat him up so badly that Fan Chengsi thought he was going to be disabled. Yin Muchen also took offence with the Fan family, and the supermarket chains that the Fan family owned worldwide were all in danger.

After that, she miscarried the child and ended up in a bad situation. It was only then that Yin Muchen stopped doing anything to the Fan family.

The Fan family managed to escape this time.

Yin Shuiling curled the corners of her lips up and let out a sweet and sincere smile while she looked at this muscular boy, “Fan Chengsi, thank you. Knowing a person like you feels so good.”

Fan Chengsi listened to her, and his eyes lit up. “Yin Shuiling, hearing you say this, everything is worth it.”

They both smiled.

Fan Chengsi had a sip of the cocktail, and had a look at the friends that had gone to dance. He looked at the girl who was using the straw to drink fruit juice. He lowered his volume and asked her, “Shuiling, I heard that you were...pregnant, and you lost the child?”

Yin Shuiling’s long, thick eyelashes froze.

Fan Chengsi quickly explained himself. “Shuiling, don’t overthink this matter. I found out about this when Yin Muchen came to question me that day. He asked me if the child was mine. At that moment, I froze. All of the blood flowing in my body rushed towards my head, and after that, I admitted to it. I said that the child was mine.”

Yin Shuiling turned her gaze sideways to look at the boy. She laughed and said, “You are really so foolish. Why did you have to get yourself involved in this mess?”

Fan Chengsi was serious as he said, “Shuiling, I know that you are not an easy girl. You must have loved the person before you... I think that the child...was Yin Muchen’s, right? But because of numerous misunderstandings, Yin Muchen thought that that child was mine. I was thinking, since you did not explain it to him, you must have your own reasons for not explaining it. I respect you. You did not want him to know, and I would’ve shoulder this responsibility for you. If your child were still around, in the future, I would be his father.”

Yin Shuiling listened to him and did not say a single word.

Fan Chengsi felt that he went overboard with what he said. Yin Shuiling had no intention of dating him at all, and he was saying the word “father” and all. He was also afraid that he would scare her off.

Fan Chengsi was red in the face, and he changed the subject. “Yin Shuiling, in two days, you are going to England to further your studies. I have already discussed it with my family; I am going to England with you.”

“I don’t want that.” Yin Shuiling shook her head. “Don’t go with me. I am fine going alone.”

Fan Chengsi was older than her by one year and had already furthered his studies in the top university in the country. Furthermore, he was the only son of the Fan family, and his father had slowly already allowed him to take over the operations of the supermarket chains that the Fan family owned. He could not leave behind his own family and responsibility to chase after her in England.

She was unable to take responsibility for that.

“Yin Shuiling, you would be going to a foreign place with no familiar people. It is not as easy as you may imagine. Furthermore, you are so beautiful that it is not safe. I want to go over to take care of you and protect you.”

“Fan Chengsi, I’m a grown woman. I can take care of myself, I am very serious as I tell you this: don’t follow me to England, otherwise, I will not be your friend anymore.”

Fan Chengsi wanted to speak, but Yin Shuiling continued, “Fan Chengsi, aren’t you studying fashion design? I hope when I return to the country, you will have already attained success. A truly charismatic man will not chase after a girl but let himself become truly strong and powerful. Fan Chengsi, when I return, I will definitely look for you. At that time, I will come to rely on you then.”

What she said touched Fan Chengsi’s weak spot. He was 19 years old right now, but in front of that man Yin Muchen, he was extremely weak in comparison.

If he were not strong and powerful, how was he going to protect the person whom he loved deeply?

Fan Chengsi nodded his head. “Okay then...but Yin Shuiling, we have to maintain contact with one another, okay?”

“Okay.” Yin Shuiling nodded her head.

...

The two chatted for a while. Yin Shuiling turned her gaze sideways and saw a lead singer seated at the bar nearby. The frontman held a guitar in his hands as he tested the sound.

“Yin Shuiling, do you want to play guitar and sing a song?”

Yin Shuiling was famed for her talents. She did not know how to play every instrument extremely well, but she could play a few songs at a beginner level. Her voice was even sweeter, and she sang very melodiously.

“Can I?” Yin Shuiling was moved by this mesmerizing night view and was also affected by this good boy by her side. She winked her eyes cheekily as she asked the question.

“Of course you can; look at me.”

Fan Chengsi walked over, and he conversed with the singer for a few moments before taking a few notes from his wallet. The singer handed his guitar over to Fan Chengsi.

Fan Chengsi handed the guitar over to Yin Shuiling, and he laughed and said, “Play a song then. You can go ahead and sing the song that you want to sing the most.”

Yin Shuiling placed the guitar in front of her and used her small fair hand to strum it.

The song that she wanted to sing the most before she left?

Actually, she also did not know what she wanted to sing herself, so she played and sang casually —

Stub out the cigarette

It would be better for your body

Although it would be very hard for you to get through, the nights when I miss you;

I do not bear to part with the photos where we were hugging one another

But I also do not want myself to look at those photos at the same time

I hide them at the back of the photo frame;

Open the windows then

It would be better for your emotions, it would be better

If you do so, I can still have a smile on my face, and bid you farewell;

This is the CD that I loved the most

You said that this is only a part of the music

But in the future, it would make me recall...

Yin Shuiling did not know what she was singing about, but Fan Chengsi, and everyone present on the scene could tell from the lyrics alone, this was the old classic songs from the 80s that was extremely popular — Escaping the Tiger’s Mouth

She did not know when the loud and extravagant jazz music in the bar stopped playing. The people that were moving about the dance floor. The people who were drinking and having fun at the bar all turned their attention towards Yin Shuiling’s direction.

The girl was dressed in a simple light blue skirt with multiple folds today. She looked pure and elegant like a lily. She was at the age of 18, in the prime of her beautiful youth, without any troubles or worries.

But she chose a song that was so melancholic and sad.

No one understood why an 18 year old girl like her would chose such a song like that.

No one understood why her pure and clear voice made everyone want to tear up when she sang.

The girl strummed her guitar while she sang...

Talking about the promises that we gave out with our lives

Turning my head back to look at this luxurious world

Every moment that I loved you, it was like a train that flew past;

The tears that I said not to shed

They are scalding my eyes right now

Loving you is like being at a tiger’s mouth

I have escaped danger...

She sang these two last lines repeatedly — Loving you is like being at a tiger’s mouth, I have escaped danger.

The thought that ran through her mind was... these past ten years, every moment that she loved him.

She was bidding farewell right now.

To Yin Muchen.

...

Two days later, Liu Caizhe went into the condominium unit,. The entire unit was empty and cold. It was as if no one had been living at this place for a long time. When he stepped foot inside, no echo rang out in the air.

Aunty sat down on the sofa as she drooped her head down and sighed. The moment Miss Yin left, she brought away all signs of life along with her.

Liu Caizhe was also worried. “Aunty, where is Muchen? Is he still drinking upstairs? How many days has it been already? Has he come out of the wine vat that he is soaking in? There are a ton of documents in the office that are waiting for him to handle. I am already so exhausted dealing with everything. Does he think that his body is made out of metal? He is not sleeping or eating. He is just drinking alcohol? Does he still want his life?”

“Manager Liu, don’t say that about Sir. Sir does not feel too good inside his heart. When I look at him...”Aunty lifted her sleeve to wipe her tears away.

Liu Caizhe shook his head and let out a sigh. Every member of this family was not doing well, no matter how small, big or old, and he stomped up the stairs. action

He opened the door of the wine cellar, Yin Muchen was inside as he expected. The man had not changed out of his grey shirt and black trousers for a long time now. His outfit was crumpled and messy. He perched himself on the wooden table as he got drunk and slept, and when he woke up again, he started to drink again.

Liu Caizhe came forward and patted his shoulder, “Muchen, Miss Yin left today. She should be at the airport at this moment. If you rush over right now, you might be able to catch her.”

Yin Muchen lifted his head up. He was already half drunk. His firm lower jaw was covered in stubble, and he had not shaven his moustache for a long period of time. He lifted his hand up to have a mouthful of alcohol. He laughed self-mockingly as his voice was hoarse and unclear. “Catch her? Heh... She does not want to see me... When she left, she asked me not to appear before her again. If...I really want her to live a good life in the future...”

The girl’s exquisite face appeared in Liu Caizhe’s mind. She was really soft and gentle in character like a small lamb, but when she truly hurt others, it was swift and harsh.

Who could take it after hearing her words?

“I know that she hates me. She hates me already... I forced myself on her, and even... caused her to have a miscarriage... The expression that she had in her eyes was so cold. Oh, that was not right... She does not even look me in the eye anymore...”

“Muchen....” Liu Caizhe did not know how to comfort him, actually in this world, if there was no such thing as love, there would be no hate either, if... if the girl really truly hated him, then she should really told Yin Muchen the truth....

But she did not do so.

Yin Muchen suddenly put the bottle down. He looked at Liu Caizhe as if he were grabbing onto his lifesaver. “Hand me your phone... Give me your phone quickly...”

He did not understand what was going on. “Muchen, who do you want to call?” Liu Caizhe asked as he handed his phone over to Yin Muchen.

Yin Muchen took his phone, and there was a touch of a smile on his handsome stubble-laden face. “I want to give...little mute a call. I want her to come over right now to accompany me... Shuiling has left, I still have little mute. Haha, this is great. This is way too great...”

The man kept repeating how great it was, and as he expected, he found “Little Mute” inside Liu Caizhe’s contact book. This name “Little Mute” was the name that he had given her. Liu Caizhe saved this name inside his phone after that.

He dialed the number and heard the busy tone. Ding, ding!

At this moment, Yin Shuiling was at the airport. The broadcast in the hall rang out in the air. “Travellers heading to England can start to board now.” She took the bag in her hands and took her flight ticket and passport to head over to the customs.

At this moment, a ringtone rang out. She received a call.

She took her phone out to have a look; it was a call from Liu Caizhe.

Her long curled lashes froze for a moment. These three years, Liu Caizhe only texted her, but now, he was calling her. There was no need to think about it. She could already guess who was calling her.

Yin Muchen.

She went to the rubbish bin and threw her phone inside with a plop.

She started walking and she did not turn her head back.

After that, Yin Muchen heard the cold voice of the female robot. “Sorry, the number that you are calling right now is unable to be connected”... He dialed the same number a few more times, and he got the same result. No one picked up.

There was no one answering.

The smile on the corners of Yin Muchen’s lips disappeared. His dark eyes were both hopeless and in a daze as he said, “Why is Little Mute not picking up my call? Why is she not answering... Does she not want me anymore either?”

Yin Muchen was extremely emotional as he tugged Liu Caizhe’s collar. “Help me find Little Mute. I have money. The only thing that I have right now is money. As long as she is willing to be together with me, I am willing to give all of my money to her...”

“Muchen, calm down...”

Yin Muchen let go of Liu Caizhe’s collar. He fell back into the chair. Ding! He received a message.

Yin Muchen read the message, it was a video from a subordinate.

He tapped the video open, and it was the girl in the bar. Her beautiful legs were crossed over one another, and she was casual and cool as she sat down. She lightly closed her beautiful eyes as she strummed the guitar as she sang out loud.

What was she singing about...

Talking about the promises that we gave out with our lives

Turning my head back to look at this luxurious world

Every moment that I loved you, it was like a train that flew past;

The tears that I said not to shed

They are scalding my eyes right now

Loving you is like being at a tiger’s mouth

I have escaped danger...

Yin Muchen was in a daze as he looked at the moisture on the corners of the girl’s eyes, and he noticed two teardrops slip out.

He suddenly thought of the winter rose that she buried in the backyard of the Yin family home. Chasing after love, she still sang out, every moment that I have loved you, it was just like a train that flew by and passed by me.

“Heh, hehe...” Yin Muchen started to laugh at first before breaking out into long chain of laughter. His mind was just like a movie as it started to replay the events of the past ten years and the way she looked as she chased after him.

She always had a bright smile on her face as she chased after him. She would call him by his name. While being half awake in his embrace, she would ask, Yin Muchen, I like you, why don’t you ever believe me?

He believed it now.

Yin Muchen believed it now.

10 years. She loved him for the entire 10 years.

But what rang out in his ears repeatedly was what the girl sang out at last — Loving you is like being at a tiger’s mouth, I have escaped danger...

She did not love him anymore.

So, she had escaped danger.

Why had he just understood the love she had for him? His love was just like a flower that had withered away.

Yin Muchen perched himself on the wooden table. His eyes were red before they turned wet...

Liu Caizhe quietly stood in place. He looked at this powerful 28 year old man. He perched himself on the table before softly choking up as he sobbed.

He cried just like a child.
