Revenge

Confession

Yunlan froze on his spot. He wanted to say something, but his words got stuck on his throat.

He again asked to double check, "What? "

Chen Li was as casual as ever.
She repeated, "I think your bodyguard is more of my type. Why don't you give him to me? Then I will give you a good idea to destroy this marriage contract! Good deal, isn't it? "

His mind was in a turmoil. The first thought in his mind was who care about a damn marriage?

He shook his head firmly, "Don't talk nonsense. He is not a thing that I can give anyone like that. He is a person, he has his own mind. "

"Ohhh? What a big news! Just so you know I am a person too and your dad is totally playing with us. Are you gonna act all noble now saying all this about humanity??? You and your father crossed it a long way ago. " Chen Li said amused.

"Just what did I do to you? " Yunlan raised his voice.

"You didn't do anything. I don't understand why me taking your bodyguard has anything to do with you?? It's not like you cannot find anyone else to guard yourself. " Chen Li said seeing Yunlan's reaction.

That question hit Yunlan quite hard. He felt anger from within and it just felt like the temperature just dropped.

Chen Li became a little conscious and asked, "Why are you getting so angry? Your bodyguard is standing right here and he didn't object at all. " She pointed towards Shen Wei who was leaning on the wall with a stupidified face.

At the mention of 'bodyguard', Shen Wei's trance broke and he looked at Chen Li solemnly. His expression asked a lot of questions.

Yunlan turned his face to Shen Wei, demanding him to object. When Yunlan was not looking Chen Li winked at Shen Wei urging him to play along.

For Shen Wei, it was going towards an absurd direction. He was sighing in his mind thinking how playful Chen Li can be. But what surprised him more was Yunlan's immediate refusal.
He knows right now what Yunlan needs the most is to break out of this engagement.

So he did not say anything just stared unshaken.

But the fact that Shen Wei did not refuse made Yunlan angry. Shen Wei is the type of person who would immediately shot down a proposal if he doesn't like it.

Yunlan shot up from his seat and shoot a glare at Shen Wei. He was getting angrier every moment and he could feel it in his veins.
'Why can't you just refuse! ' that was the only thing roaming around his mind.

He spoke bitterly, "Do whatever you want! You think if me as an annoying child anyway! Bastard. "

Saying that with rage, he slammed the door behind him not looking back.

Shen Wei stood there like log and thought to himself that it is the first time he had ever seen Yunlan getting so angry with him.

His gaze fall on Chen Li who was trying to contain her smile and said with an accusing tone, "Why are you doing this? "

Chen Li laughed and said, "Shen Wei, I think Zhao Yunlan likes you! Oh the tragedy! "

Shen Wei's eyebrows scrunched into an angle, "Don't speak nonsense. "

Chen Li looked desperate, "C'mon! Of course you won't believe me. Okay! Accompany me for the day and you will understand soon. "

Shen Wei felt like his heart was rebelling in his own body, making him feel suffocated about this situation. Only he knows how much he wanted to hold back Yunlan when he turned to leave in his fury, that even he was surprised.But really? 'Like'? That appeared to be almost as an overstatement to Shen Wei.
