My Brother's Arranged Marriage Partner Is My Boyfriend - Chapter 70

“Let go of me! No! Get away from me, get away! Don’t touch me, ugh!”

In the video, a youth was crying and struggling desperately. His hands and feet were being pinned down firmly on a bed by four students of roughly the same age, rendering him unable to move an inch.

The school uniform he was wearing had been brutally ripped open, the broken buttons rolling away to parts unknown under the force of the struggle. The pants on his lower body had also been stripped off, leaving only a pair of underwear to cover his lower torso. His entire fair and youthful body was thus completely exposed to the air.

Upon seeing this sight, everyone present could not help but swallow hard.

One of the students pinning down his legs said, “Brother Yuan, are you sure he’s a guy? This… this face looks way too much like a girl’s! How can a man look this good, and how can his skin be this supple?!”

Another swallowed his saliva and chimed in, “Exactly, Brother Yuan. Look at him, he doesn’t have a single hair on his body. What kind of man is this clean and fair? Could he really be a girl?”

Someone standing to the side watching the scene said, “If he weren’t good-looking, would Brother Yuan have his eyes on him? Besides, our Brother Yuan has high standards; ordinary goods wouldn’t catch his eye.”

“That’s true!”

And the “Brother Yuan” they spoke of was currently sitting on the edge of the bed. Hearing these comments, he leaned down and lightly stroked the body of the pinned-down youth with his hand. With a triumphant smile, he said, “Xingxing, I told you long ago, you really are beautiful. And beautiful things should belong to me.”

The student version of Bai Nanxing turned his head away in revulsion and began to struggle violently again. “No, no! Don’t touch me! Get away from me, get the hell away!”

The sound of him crying for help instantly filled the large room.

Hearing the cries for help, Brother Yuan felt very displeased. He reached out and pinched Bai Nanxing’s chin directly, smiling coldly. “Xingxing, do you know what kind of place this is? Do you know who I am? I am the eldest young master of the Cao family. Without my command, no one dares to step a single foot into this room. So, no one is coming to save you today.”

Bai Nanxing shook his head, looking at him in disbelief. His eyes had turned red from crying for so long. “No, that’s not possible!”

“How is it not possible?” Cao Huaiyuan laughed. “You only have yourself to blame for not agreeing to be my boyfriend back then. I didn’t want it to be like this, Xingxing; you forced my hand. If you had agreed to be my boyfriend then, I guarantee that from that moment on, no one would have dared to say a single word behind your back. But you still rejected me. You know, no one has ever dared to reject my pursuit. You are the first one to ever make me feel a sense of frustration. This is all your fault; you’re the one who forced me to do this.”

After saying these words, Cao Huaiyuan commanded the five people watching the scene, “Tie him up tightly for me, then you can go outside and stand guard.”

“Brother Yuan, such a good thing—are you sure we shouldn’t enjoy it together?” the student who had been pinning down his hands suggested.

But before his words could fully land, he was glared back into silence by Cao Huaiyuan’s vicious gaze.

The group instantly felt as if they had been bitten by a poisonous snake, their entire bodies breaking into a cold sweat. Without another word, they hurriedly tied Bai Nanxing’s hands and feet securely and then scrambled out of the room.

Before long, desperate cries and screams drifted from the room.

The video file stopped abruptly there and began to replay from the beginning.

Bai Nanxing immediately turned off the phone and threw it into a corner as if he were holding something burning hot. Then, he tightly hugged his own legs with both arms, curling up like a hedgehog.

Yan Mo’s bed happened to be pushed up against Bai Nanxing’s. Hearing the noise of the phone being thrown, he looked over. Just as he was about to ask what happened, he saw that Bai Nanxing’s entire state was wrong. He seemed to be in a state of extreme terror; his eyes were vacant and dull. Yan Mo quickly got up and walked over.

“Star Baby, what’s wrong?” As Yan Mo got closer, he discovered that Bai Nanxing’s whole body was trembling, and it was getting increasingly severe. Even his body temperature seemed to be rising.

But he was clearly fine just a moment ago. How did he suddenly turn into this?

Yan Mo scanned the bed and saw the phone thrown in the corner, and he understood instantly.

“Star Baby, what on earth happened? What did you see on the phone?” Yan Mo reached out and hugged him tightly, patting his back to comfort him. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here!”

Bai Nanxing’s voice trembled as he said, “He… he’s back.”

“Who? Who’s back?”

“He’s back!”

Although Yan Mo didn’t know who Bai Nanxing was talking about, anyone who could scare Bai Nanxing to this degree was certainly not a good person.

“Star Baby, calm down first. It’s okay, everything will be fine. Can you tell me who he is?”

Bai Nanxing slowly lifted his head. After taking a deep breath, he said, “Yan Mo, he’s back from prison. This envelope was sent specifically to tell me that he’s already out.”

Out of prison?

Yan Mo knew that Bai Nanxing had many bad experiences in his past, but he had never asked about the specifics. After all, such unpleasant things were like a scar, and the feeling of having one’s scars poked at was very painful.

Therefore, unless Bai Nanxing was willing and took the initiative to tell him, he would absolutely never go out of his way to look into it.

“Star Baby, if that’s the case, is he back to seek revenge on you?” Yan Mo believed the problem definitely didn’t lie with Bai Nanxing. “If it’s really like that, let’s call the police! Star Baby.”

Bai Nanxing suddenly went cold and calm. Only one thought remained in his mind—he could not call the police!

“Yan Mo, I can’t call the police!”

“Wh… why can’t we call the police?” Yan Mo reached out and felt his forehead. “Star Baby, you don’t have a fever. Why would you say something like that? If you don’t call the police, what will you do if he really does something to you?”

Bai Nanxing didn’t know what he should do either. Back then, he had testified that Cao Huaiyuan tried to rape him, but in the end, there was no physical evidence. Cao Huaiyuan was only sentenced to a few years inside.

Now that Cao Huaiyuan was out, he must have anticipated that Bai Nanxing might call the police. He certainly wouldn’t let himself be caught so easily. Furthermore, Cao Huaiyuan’s father still harbored a grudge over the previous incident and would definitely help from the shadows. Bai Nanxing couldn’t fight them alone.

Should he ask Mo Leyang for help?

Ever since Bai Nanxing learned his true identity, he had been wavering on whether he could continue to love Mo Leyang. He didn’t want to be bound by anyone.

He had spent so much effort finally managing to gain his freedom; he didn’t want to jump from one deep pit right into another.

That would be a permanent nightmare.

Bai Nanxing bit his lip. Finally, as if he had made some sort of decision, he lied to Yan Mo to soothe him, “It’s fine now. Don’t I still have ‘him’?”

Yan Mo only then realized who this “him” referred to and instantly breathed a sigh of relief. “Oh right! Your boyfriend is so rich and powerful; this little problem can definitely be solved!”

“Mm.” Bai Nanxing urged, “You go back to your bed and rest first. I’m fine now.”

Yan Mo was half-skeptical, but seeing that Bai Nanxing had finally stopped shaking, he felt at ease. “Alright then. Star Baby, if anything happens, just call me. Don’t keep everything bottled up inside; it really affects your mental health.”

Bai Nanxing nodded to show he understood.

After Yan Mo had gone back to sleep in his own bed, Bai Nanxing got up to retrieve the phone he had thrown into the corner.

Just as he expected, Cao Huaiyuan had set the file; when he opened it again, the file was already in a self-destructed state. No matter what he did, that video had completely disappeared.

Bai Nanxing put the phone back into the envelope and lay down. He then let himself be completely wrapped up in the quilt. Too many things had happened today, nearly exhausting the strength of half his life, making him feel as if he were about to suffocate.

Clearly, he just wanted to live as an ordinary person—to eat and drink, to study when it was time to study, and to find a job he liked after graduation to work hard and earn money. Like the majority of ordinary people, he wanted to spend this plain life in busyness.

But it was as if God had played a huge joke on him, making him live while struggling in hell, yet not letting him die easily.

He was really so tired.

Tired enough that he wanted to have a good sleep.

The kind where he never had to wake up for his entire life.

That way, he wouldn’t have to live in such pain.

Bai Nanxing couldn’t help but sob. Worried that Yan Mo would hear him, he bit down hard on the quilt to prevent himself from making even the slightest sound.

Right at that moment, his phone suddenly lit up.

Bai Nanxing took a deep breath, trying his best to stabilize his emotions before picking up the phone to check.

It was a WeChat message from Mo Leyang.

[Junior, asleep?]

[I guess probably not.]

[But it’s okay even if you are asleep. I just wanted to give you a heads-up that I’m sending a gift to you tomorrow.]

[You will definitely like it.]

Bai Nanxing felt very puzzled. For a person like Mo Leyang, showing uncalled-for kindness was definitely not a good thing.

[What gift?]

[Mo Leyang: Call me “hubby” and let me hear it (Expectant.jpg)]

[Oh, I’m sleepy.]

[Mo Leyang: Goodnight.]

It ended just like that?

Bai Nanxing became even more curious about this gift.

[Why the sudden gift? Since when are you so kindhearted.]

[Mo Leyang: Making the benefactor happy is something I, as your little lover, should do.]

[I’m not unhappy.]

[Mo Leyang: You can only deceive others with those words.]

[Mo Leyang: If you can’t stand that guy surnamed Bai, I’ll talk to the old man tomorrow and have him leave the house with nothing. How about it?]

Then he would certainly set off firecrackers to celebrate for three days and three nights.

But that would be too easy on Bai Yi. Bai Nanxing didn’t want to let Bai Yi off so lightly.

His entire life had already been ruined by Bai Yi, all because of Bai Yi’s own filthy, sordid, and ugly inner heart.

[Wouldn’t that be too easy?]

[Mo Leyang: The old man said, whatever you say goes.]

[Any request is okay?]

[Mo Leyang: Anything within the limits of the law is fine. Even having his whole family work a sewing machine (prison labor) is okay.]

Bai Nanxing thought about it, but in the end, he didn’t do it.

[Then let the Bai family disappear… completely disappear.]
