My Brother's Arranged Marriage Partner Is My Boyfriend - Chapter 72.1
At this moment, Cao Huaiyuan was so jealous he was nearly going insane. The person he had desired for so long had actually been claimed by another man first.
As if triggered by a sudden thought, Cao Huaiyuan reached out and began to tear at Bai Nanxing’s clothes.
Bai Nanxing instantly understood his intentions and began to struggle violently. “Cao Huaiyuan, you scumbag! Don’t touch me! Get away from me!”
From this intense reaction, Cao Huaiyuan became even more certain of his suspicion. He gritted his teeth, and his movements became even more brutal.
He forcefully shoved Bai Nanxing’s shirt up from the waist. In the next second, a dense thicket of intimate marks was exposed to his eyes.
Stretching from the edge of the neck all the way down to the waist, there was hardly a patch of clean skin left.
Cao Huaiyuan muttered a low curse and said viciously through gritted teeth, “Well, well, Xingxing. With so many marks on your body, just how many times have you rolled around with him? As I thought, I should have let those guys take turns with you back then. If this Young Master can’t have you, no one else should even think about it!”
As he spoke, he reached out to rip at Bai Nanxing’s trousers.
In that instant, those filthy and unbearable memories rushed back like a flood of savage beasts.
Bai Nanxing’s pupils contracted sharply, and his entire body shook. He felt as though his body was incredibly, hopelessly dirty. “No, don’t… don’t touch me!”
He raised his foot and kicked directly at Cao Huaiyuan’s crotch. With a sharp wail of agony, Cao Huaiyuan collapsed onto the floor in pain.
Outside, Yan Mo heard the howl. His heart raced with anxiety as he tried to rush inside to see what was happening, but as soon as he approached the door, he was blocked by four men. He could only stand back in his original position.
He wanted to take out his phone to send a WeChat message to Zhou Lin, but the moment he pulled it out, one of the men snatched it away.
Meanwhile…
Seeing Cao Huaiyuan clutching himself on the floor and howling in pain, Bai Nanxing took the opportunity to scramble off the table. He pulled open a drawer, grabbed a fruit knife, and held it protectively in front of his chest.
“Get out.”
Bai Nanxing’s voice was trembling. “Get out, or I’ll kill you!”
He had thought that after three years, he had managed to forget those filthy memories and the fear of Cao Huaiyuan. But his body’s current reaction told him that he had failed to erase it completely.
Cao Huaiyuan endured the pain below and stood up, sneering sinisterly. “You can’t kill me. Look at how your hand can’t even hold the knife steady. Admit it, Xingxing, your body still remembers me.”
“Shut up! Shut up!” Bai Nanxing screamed with every ounce of strength he had. “Get out! Get the hell out!”
Fearing that Bai Nanxing might actually lash out in a moment of impulse, Cao Huaiyuan slowly backed toward the door and threatened, “Fine, you’ve got guts. But you remember that video, don’t you? Not just that one, but the video of just the two of us. You wouldn’t want it to appear on the school forum, would you? If you don’t want those videos leaked to the school, come meet me at the bar tonight at ten o’clock. You know which bar.”
Having said his piece, Cao Huaiyuan endured the pain and forced himself out the door.
Seeing him leave, Yan Mo immediately reclaimed his phone and rushed inside, slamming the door shut.
He looked up to see Bai Nanxing standing there blankly with the knife in his hand, his gaze vacant and his body still shivering.
He stepped forward and pulled him into an embrace, slowly taking the knife away to place it on the table. He patted his back comfortingly. “It’s okay, Star Baby. They’re gone. It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Bai Nanxing leaned against his shoulder and asked in a trembling voice, “Yan Mo, do you know how long someone has to go to prison for killing a person?”
Yan Mo was instantly terrified by his words and hurriedly said, “Star Baby, you can’t do something so foolish! Your life has only just begun. It’s not worth throwing away your whole life for a piece of human trash!”
Bai Nanxing pursed his lips. Those filthy memories were nearly crushing him.
Did he still have a life?
His person and his life had been destroyed long ago.
Now, all that remained was a walking corpse of a shell.
“Mm.” Bai Nanxing composed his expression and returned to his usual demeanor. “Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid.”
Yan Mo asked, “Is he the person you mentioned last night who just got out of prison?”
Bai Nanxing nodded.
“He’s not from our school, is he?”
“No.”
Yan Mo could tell.
But being able to enter and leave the school so freely meant this person’s background was not simple.
“Star Baby, call your ‘hubby’ right now and let him deal with this guy!”
He was about to open his contact list when Bai Nanxing pressed his hand down. “Don’t call.”
Yan Mo argued, “Why not? What if he haunts you for the rest of your life? You’ll never know when he might come back for revenge. Star Baby, you can’t live under his shadow forever!”
That was why, Bai Nanxing thought, there must be a final settlement between him and Cao Huaiyuan.
Bai Nanxing took the packed lunch Yan Mo had brought and put it on the table, changing the subject. “Let’s eat first.”
Yan Mo grabbed his hand and said seriously, “Star Baby, promise me you won’t do anything reckless!”
Bai Nanxing choked back a sob and smiled. “Okay, I promise.”
Yan Mo was still uneasy. Though Bai Nanxing had agreed on the surface, emotions can be impulsive, especially in a situation like this where it is difficult to remain calm.
After they finished eating, he secretly sent a WeChat message to Zhou Lin.
Inside Mo Leyang’s Private Villa—
With a miserable shriek, Bai Ruoning collapsed to his knees. Intense pain caused tears to well up in his eyes, but he forced himself not to let them fall.
“Third… Third Young Master, w-why?” Bai Ruoning asked with a look of feigned innocence, clutching his stomach.
An hour ago, Mo Leyang had said at school that he wanted to invite him out for a meal. Bai Ruoning had assumed Mo Leyang was tired of Bai Nanxing and wanted to find pleasure with him instead.
He never expected that this lunatic, Mo Leyang, would bring him directly to his private villa and, without a word, order his bodyguards to beat him within an inch of his life.
Bai Ruoning had never suffered such humiliation growing up. Usually, he was the one laying hands on others; no one ever had the chance to touch him. But since this was Mo Leyang, he could only endure it.
This lunatic!
Mo Leyang could see he was indignant. But at the thought of how his “Little Thing” had been bullied by Bai Ruoning in the past, he felt this was far from enough.
“Why?” Mo Leyang was amused by the question. “Since when do I need a reason to hit someone? Do you want to go ask Gu Shize what he thinks?”
Bai Ruoning knew about Gu Shize being kidnapped by Mo Leyang. He had assumed that since Gu Shize was a young master of the Four Great Families, Mo Leyang would at least give face to Gu Feng and refrain from such actions. But Mo Leyang not only dared to do it, he intended to finish him off.
He truly was a lunatic.
Bai Ruoning’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
If that was the case, would Mo Leyang kill him right here?!
“Third Young Master, Third Young Master!” Bai Ruoning crawled over on his knees. “I was wrong, I was wrong! Please, Third Young Master, spare me!”
Mo Leyang pinched his chin with disgust. “I can spare you, but you must answer a few questions truthfully. If you dare lie… see those wolves at the gate? They haven’t eaten all day.”
Bai Ruoning’s face turned deathly pale instantly, and he nodded frantically. “Ask, Third Young Master, ask! I’ll answer everything I know truthfully!”
Mo Leyang pushed him away, took a tissue with an expression of loathing, and wiped his hands. “Where did the scars on the Little Thing’s wrist come from?”
Bai Ruoning didn’t react immediately and let out a confused “Huh?”
Mo Leyang frowned in displeasure.
The bodyguard nearby understood the signal immediately and kicked Bai Ruoning squarely in the back. “Answer the Third Young Master’s question quickly!”
Bai Ruoning finally realized who the “Little Thing” Mo Leyang referred to was.
Such an intimate nickname only existed between people in that kind of relationship. For Mo Leyang to call Bai Nanxing that meant he had fully accepted him.
So, the ring on Mo Leyang’s ring finger was actually…
But wasn’t it said that the brat was married to the Eldest Young Master of the Mo family?
Was what that old man from the Mo family said before just a smokescreen?!
Seeing him distracted, Mo Leyang signaled the bodyguard again.
“Ah—!”
The kick was even heavier this time; Bai Ruoning’s tears nearly fell.
“One of the things I hate most is waiting,” Mo Leyang glared at him. “If you make me wait again, you don’t need to speak at all. You can go straight to being dog food.”
Bai Ruoning apologized frantically, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Third Young Master! I’ll speak now!”
After a pause, Bai Ruoning said tremblingly, “The scars on that brat’s wrist are because…”
Before he could finish, he was slapped hard by a bodyguard. “How dare you insult the future Third Mistress?”
Bai Ruoning’s face instantly felt like it was on fire. Tears streamed down uncontrollably, and within moments, half of his face swelled up like a bun.
He looked up at Mo Leyang. Mo Leyang’s face was even darker, looking as though he might kill someone.
Bai Ruoning clutched his face and begged for mercy, “I was wrong, Third Young Master! I know I was wrong! Give me one last chance, I promise I won’t say it again!”
Mo Leyang stood up and sat on the table, then without hesitation, kicked him directly in the face. “A brat? You’re the one who’s a piece of trash!”
