Yan Hua finds Shi Jing’s flat according to the address. It’s in a semi-new community.

“Madam Hua, you’d better wait for Childe Ruoxian.” The driver persuades her when she wants to go upstairs. “It’s also okay to wait for the guards.”

“But I’m afraid that Shi Jing is in danger.” Yan Hua is scared when she thinks of Shi Jing taken away by her husband. “No. I have to go upstairs.”

The driver still insists that she can’t go upstairs. At the same time, a police car is coming.

“Sir!” Yan Hua seems to see the saviors.

Two policemen get off the car and realize what happened. They go to Shi Jing’s flat by elevator immediately. Yan Hua follows them and worries about Shi Jing. But when they arrive, they find that the door is ajar. Policemen push the door and find the room is in a mess and there is blood on the ground.

“Shi Jing!” Yan Hua shouts with her heart sinks.

Policemen can’t find anyone in the room. One of them finds blood on the safe passage. So they follow the blood and call the headquarters for help.

They follow the blood to the top of the building. When opening the iron door carefully, they find Shi Jing is sitting there, covered in blood. A man sits behind her and chokes her. He is also covered by blood.

“Don’t move!” Policemen pull out the gun.

Yan Hua bites her lip tightly. She calls in a low voice, “Shi Jing. Shi Jing…”

Shi Jing moves a little. She opens her eyes slowly.

“Shi Jing!” Yan Hua raises her voice, “How are you?”

“I…I’m fine. It’s… not my blood.” Shi Jing answers.

Policemen look at them carefully. The blood is the man’s because his head is hurt.

“Are you Yan Hua?” The man raises his head slowly. He puts one of his hands in front with a kitchen knife.

Yan Hua takes a deep breath, “Yes, I am.”

“You want my wife to leave me. Why?” The man stares at her. His fierce eyes are red.

Yan Hua breathes out, “I never let Shi Jing leave you. I just save her.”

“Nonsense!” The man waves his kitchen knife.

Policemen are scared. “Mrs. Lang, you’d better leave now. Don’t irritate him!”

“You don’t go!” The man shouts again.

Yan Hua raises her hands. “I won’t go. Could you please let Shi Jing go or let me deal with your wound?”

“Don’t pretend to cheat me!” The man laughs, “Don’t you want me to die? Both you and this bitch want me to die.”

The hand he chokes Shi Jing begins to pinch her face tightly. “Don’t I treat you well? How dare you want to diverse me?”

Crack! Crack! Crack! The man hits Shi Jing’s face violently. Shi Jing doesn’t move and keeps silent.

“Speak!” The man chokes her again. “Speak! Otherwise I will kill you!”

Shi Jing coughs several times and says slowly, “What… should I say?”

“Tell me why you want to diverse me. Don’t you know I love you? I love you…”

Shi Jing seems to smile, “Do you love me? Your love makes you hit me… Your love makes my life a living hell… Your love makes me lose my kid… when I’m pregnant.”

“No, no, no. That’s not true.” The man is a little confused, “I didn’t mean to… I didn’t mean to! You understand me, right? You love me. It’s not your fault… No!”

He looks around and finally stares at Yan Hua. “It’s you. You attempt to drive a wedge between us. It’s your fault!”

“Yan Hua!” Lang Ruoxian rushes in. He tucks Yan Hua behind him when he sees what happened here.

Policemen, doctors and a negotiator are behind Lang Ruoxian.

“Mr. Lang, please leave with Mrs. Lang. It’s dangerous here!” The captain who is charge of this case suggests.

Lang Ruoxian of course agrees with him. But Yan Hua shakes her head and says, “I can’t go.”

“Listen to me. Let police deal with that.”

“No.” Yan Hua walks out. “My fault causes this problem. I can’t go right now.”

Lang Ruoxian’s face turns dark. He looks at the man with cold eyes.

Seeing so many people are here, the man chokes Shi Jing more tightly. “Yan Hua! You should come here. Come here!”

“Okay!” Yan Hua looks at him, “I’ll come if you let Shi Jing free.”

Suddenly, her wrist is painful because Lang Ruoxian catches it tightly.

“I don’t agree.” Lang Ruoxian says slowly, “I know you feel sorry to her. And you blame yourself. But it’s useless to go there. Think about your son, Gungun.”

Yan Hua cries. She shakes her head, “I can’t let her alone. I can’t…”

“Go away…” Says a weak voice.

People look on the side where they heard the voice. It’s Shi Jing.

“Miss Yan… Thank you.” Shi Jing laughs this time, “Thank… you. You let me know. In the past ten years. I deserve it.”

“If… I understand it earlier, I won’t… suffer this today.” She coughs several times, “Policemen…”

Shi Jing raises her hand for a while. But she puts it down finally with some unknown reasons. She says, “I report that… my husband mistreats me all the time… And… he aborted my child.”

“She gets hurt.” Lang Ruoxian says in a low voice, “Maybe her rib or her sternum is broken.”

Yan Hua worries about her, “What would happen?”

“If the broken bone doesn’t insert the organ, it will be not too bad. But…” Lang Ruoxian says and he catches her wrist tightly. He is afraid Yan Hua rushes to Shi Jing.

Policemen go outside slowly. Only the captain and negotiator stay there. Lang Ruoxian wants to take Yan Hua away forcibly. But Shi Jing’s husband doesn’t let Yan Hua go.

“That woman, you shouldn’t go!” The man shouts loudly, “It’s your fault. You abet my wife.”

The negotiator squats down slowly so that their eyes are level. “It’s no good for you to refuse budge. You are hurt. Your wife is hurt, too. Let’s have a talk. What do you think?”

“Let that woman come here first!” The man stares at Yan Hua fiercely. He seems to want to bite her.

Lang Ruoxian protects Yan Hua in his arms, “I can replace her.”

“Ha! Ha! You’re her brother-in-law, aren’t you?” The man recognizes Lang Ruoxian’s identity, “Why do you care about your brother’s wife? Have you made love?”

Lang Ruoxian finds Yan Hua is trembling. But he doesn’t let her go. He even holds her more tightly.

“I won’t let her go. You must choose me, or let’s keep stalemated.” Lang Ruoxian says in a calm and wry voice, “Your head is hurt. I’m afraid you feel dizzy now.”

“If you still refuse budge, you’ll faint. We’ll make it without doing anything.”

The man is confused. He looks around and points at the clothesline, “Tie your hands and feet with it.”

“No.” Yan Hua holds Lang Ruoxian’s hands and shakes her head when he goes to take the clothesline.

Lang Ruoxian pats her hands. He whispers, “Don’t worry.”

He ties her hands and feet quickly. The man asks him to jump to there. Lang Ruoxian cooperates with his order. He gesticulates with his hands behind him. The policeman and the negotiator see each other. Then the captain turns around and leaves.

“Ha! Ha! Look at the richest man of G City!” The man kicks Lang Ruoxian suddenly when he jumps near the man.

Lang Ruoxian falls down easily. Yan Hua screams.

“Close to me.” The man waves his hand with knife.

Lang Ruoxian inches his way forward on the ground. So the man could catch him with his hand. Then the man holds the knife to his throat.

“Tell me. You guys have so much money. Why do you still break up my family?” The man pats Lang Ruoxian’s face with his kitchen knife. Yan Hua’s heart is stopping in her throat.

With tears blur her eyes, Yan Hua always wipes tears with her sleeve.

“I love my wife. I can’t live without her. But you break up us. Why? How dare you separate us? Speak!”

Yan Hua shouts, “No! I don’t want to separate you!”

“Good job, Mrs. Lang. You should draw his attention. Our sniper is in position now.” The captain whispers behind Yan Hua. No one knows when he comes back.

Yan Hua wipes away her tears and nasal mucus. She lets herself calm down.

“Listen to me. Shi Jing really loves you. So she chooses to bear you these years. Right?” She says.

Negotiators make a gesture of good job. Yan Hua continues to shout, “Do you truly love her? If you love her, why do you hit her?”

“I don’t mean to hit her.” The man cries, “I… I can’t control myself. I was scared when I hit her at the first time. I was afraid she left me.”

“So I knelt down and begged her to forgive me. I promised I wouldn’t hit her again. Shi Jing forgave me. Ha! Ha! She forgave me.” The man smiles, “I was also afraid when I hit her the second time. But I knew she wouldn’t leave me if I begged her.”

After hitting her several times, he is accustomed to hit her. It becomes a way to vent his working pressure. In his view, Shi Jing won’t resist him. She will be fine if he begs her after hitting her.

“I’m wrong! I’m really wrong!” The man bows his head and forces Shi Jing’s face toward him. He says, “Please forgive me one more. I promise I won’t drink and hit you again.”

Shi Jing is like a puppet. She allows the man to put her head in a strange gesture. The man is nervous when she keeps silence.

“You persuade her! Persuade her!” He shouts to Yan Hua.

Yan Hua nods, “Okay, don’t worry. I will persuade her.”

“Quickly!” The man continues to cry. He waves his kitchen knife casually. And it hurts Lang Ruoxian’s shoulder.

Yan Hua screams. At the same time, she hears the gunshot.

The man’s wrist is shot. The kitchen knife is fallen down.

Lang Ruoxian rolls to the other side quickly and kicks the man’s shoulder. Lots of policemen rush to cover the man with their body. Yan Hua becomes crazy. She pushes them and runs to Lang Ruoxian.

“Lang Ruoxian! Lang Ruoxian!” Lang Ruoxian lies on the ground without moving.

Yan Hua cries loudly, “Don’t scare me. Please wake up. Please move a little.”
