Chapter 289: Not Sure If He Can Be Delivered On Christmas

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mu Sisi could no longer hold her tears. As she put the photos down, she noticed a paper inside the envelope that she had accidentally left out previously.

She took the paper out of the envelope and read the words that were printed on it.

“Deposit five hundred thousand dollars to the following bank account if you don’t want these nude photographs to go public. Don’t even think about reporting this to the police. I know all about your family, and I will send out all of these photographs to your company and your husband’s family and company if you tell the police. I’ll even upload them to porn websites.

“These photographs are just part of my collection. If you still want to maintain your reputation and dignity, do reconsider your choices.”

The message came attached with the Gao family’s home and company addresses, as well as the Mu family’s address. It even had their email addresses on it. It was proof that the pervert knew her well, and they were serious about their blackmail threat.

Mu Sisi quickly returned those photos to the envelope and called Mu Huaisheng on the phone. “Brother… brother… please come to my office.”

“…”

“Please, this is really urgent…” Mu Sisi could no longer contain her tears and sobbed. “I beg you, please come quickly. I have no idea what I should do, brother…”

Mu Huaisheng was alarmed as he did not know why Mu Sisi sounded terrified, so he hurried to her office. However, he noticed that the door was locked when he arrived.

So, Mu Huaisheng knocked on the door.

“Who’s there?” Mu Sisi’s frightened voice traveled from behind the door.

“It’s me,” Mu Huaisheng answered calmly.

Mu Huaisheng heard movements from the office, and a few moments later, Mu Sisi opened the door and took a peek outside. She relaxed when she saw that they were alone and quickly pulled Mu Huaisheng into the room before she locked the door again.

Mu Sisi started to cry after Mu Huaisheng asked her, “What happened?”

“Brother, what should I do? Tell me what I should do? My reputation is destroyed… I want to kill that pervert. I want to tear him apart!” Mu Sisi wailed.

“What happened? Don’t just keep crying, tell me what’s going on?” Mu Huaisheng frowned and asked.

Mu Sisi passed the envelope to Mu Huaisheng as she cried. She did not want Mu Huaisheng to see her nude photos. Mu Huaisheng was her brother, and it was not appropriate for him to look at them.

However, she knew that she did not have a choice but to let him know about what had happened.

As Mu Huaisheng took the photos out of the envelope, Mu Sisi suddenly shouted, “Brother!”

Mu Huaisheng immediately froze, and then he looked at Mu Sisi.

“Inside the envelope are… there are photographs of… me… of me… of me getting raped by the man that day,” Mu Sisi wrapped her arms around her shoulders as if she suddenly felt cold.

Mu Huaisheng’s expression darkened as he took the photos out of the envelope. He merely glanced at some of the photos and did not flip through every single one of them. Even then, Mu Sisi was still embarrassed about that.

Mu Sisi passed the message to her brother and asked, “What should we do? We cannot report to the police, or else he will… I don’t care about the Gao family. The worst that they could do is to demand a divorce if they were to know about this. But I don’t want the whole world to know about this. How am I supposed to face the public if they saw nude pictures of me? Brother, please, you must help me. What should I do?” Mu Sisi continued to sob.

Mu Huaisheng’s complexion paled with anger, but he managed to hold his urge to say ‘I told you so’ to Mu Sisi.

“What else can we do? We don’t have any other choice but to give him five hundred thousand dollars and hope that he keeps his promises. Fortunately, it is not too big an amount for us, and hopefully, that guy is ignorant enough to think that it is a huge amount so that he is satisfied with it. Since it is a small amount, I worry that he will keep asking for more. Even if he asked for a larger amount of cash, and if we complied, he might do it over and over again.” Mu Huaisheng analyzed the situation calmly.

“Then what should we do? Do we really want to get blackmailed by him again and again? What if… what if the photographs leaked out? When will this extortion end?” Mu Sisi burned with rage. She felt like she could tear the pervert to shreds.

It was bad enough that the pervert was ugly, but he even had the nerve to do such nasty filth!

“Do you have any suggestions, other than to give him the money he demanded?” Mu Huaisheng asked with a flat tone.

Mu Sisi’s lips quivered, and she remained silent.

“I have been rather active after I arrived at B City, and I have gotten quite close with Liu Dui from the investigation squad. I shall discuss this with him privately and request for an unofficial investigation so that we don’t alert the pervert. Once we capture the guy, he won’t have the chance to threaten us again,” Mu Huaisheng said.

Mu Sisi nodded quickly. “Please hurry.”

Mu Huaisheng kept quiet. Mu Sisi glanced at the photographs and suddenly thought of an issue, so she asked,” Do I need to provide these photos for Liu Dui to start his investigation?”

Mu Sisi was depressed as she had lost her rights to her privacy, and there was a chance that strangers would see naked pictures of her.

Mu Huaisheng let out a long sigh and returned the photos to Mu Sisi. “Choose some photos that are not… too extreme, and I’ll give them to Liu Dui.”

…

…

That night, Mu Sisi returned to the new house that she and Gao Jingqiu had bought. Mu Huaishend told her that the money had been banked in, but Mu Sisi was still worried that the pervert would not keep his promise.

The landline telephone at home rang while Mu Sisi spaced out, and Aunt Ge picked up the call. “Hello? Who are you looking for?”

Aunt Ge hung up the phone after a while, and asked curiously, “That’s strange. The person called us, but he did not say anything.”

Mu Sisi became alert as she had a bad feeling about that. The landline telephone rang again shortly after that, and Aunt Ge went to pick up the call. However, the person at the other end of the telephone remained silent.

Aunt Ge was annoyed by that and said, “Psycho.”

Then she hung up the phone.

The landline phone rang again while Aunt Ge continued her work. Mu Sisi stopped Aunt Ge and said, “I’ll get the call. If it’s some stupid harassment, then I’ll scold them off.”

Aunt Ge shrugged it off and continued her work. Mu Sisi picked up the phone, but she said nothing. The person at the other end remained silent too.

“Who are you?” Mu Sisi finally ended the silence with a cold, flat tone.

There was a sudden sound of heavy breathing, which was creepy enough to give Mu Sisi goosebumps.

It was him! The pervert had called her! Mu Sisi quickly lowered her voice so Aunt Ge could not overhear the conversation. “Who are you? Say something!”

“Hi, honey, it’s me. I received the money so I won’t say a word about this if you continue to be a good girl, don’t you worry,” the pervert said.

Mu Sisi felt disgusted, and she did not expect the pervert to find the number of her landline telephone.

“What do you want?” Mu Sisi asked angrily.

“Honey, don’t act this way, please. Why the sudden change in your attitude? You whined with pleasure that night, and you even came with such joy. You begged me to do it again and again-”

“Shut up!” Mu Sisi was grossed by what he said and exclaimed in rage. “I gave you the money, so why are you calling me again?”

“Of course! I wanted to relive the sweet memories of our special night together. You are the prettiest woman that I have bedded. When I shove myself into you, I can feel your tightness wrapping around me. I did not expect you to be a virgin, and that makes you even more delicious! I can’t stop thinking about you, and I want to experience it again with you.”

“Shut up! You shut up!” Mu Sisi’s complexion paled with anger, and she felt nauseated as she continued to listen to him.

“Why did you speak in such a manner, my dear? You are breaking my heart. As the saying goes, one day together as husband and wife means endless devotion for the rest of your life. Besides, we slept together multiple times that night. Let me count, just how many times did we have sex? You seemed addicted after the first time, and you kept begging for more. You even took the initiative to give me a blowjob. I did not expect both holes to have the same tightness. What a lewd woman you are.”

“Shut up, you bastard!” Mu Sisi exclaimed with rage.

“Why? Is it because your husband could not satisfy you sexually? If he can’t do that, then I welcome you to experience pleasure again. By the way, do you know what I am doing right now?”

Mu Sisi hung up the phone, but it rang again soon after.

“Honey, this is the first and last warning. Don’t ever hang up on me again, or you’ll face the consequences,” the pervert warned.

Mu Sisi knew what he meant, so she did not hang up the phone. She kept quiet, and her eyes were heavy with unshed tears. The pervert continued, “You didn’t let me finish my sentences just now. I am currently watching a video recording of us making love, and it made me hard. Now I’m jerking myself off, and by the way, the way that you jerked me off last time gave me a great feeling of ecstasy.”

Mu Sisi heard disgusting heavy breathing from the other end of the phone soon after he finished his sentence. “I bet you didn’t expect that I even have video recordings and not just photographs of you.”

Blood drained from Mu Sisi’s face, and she covered her mouth to prevent herself from vomiting all the disgust out of her after the pervert ended the call.

Gao Jingqiu had returned from his social engagements. Mu Sisi was not sure whether Goa Jingqiu went out for social entertainment or something else because she smelled a strong perfume scent the moment he stepped into the house.

Gao Jingqiu asked casually when he saw Mu Sisi’s annoyed expression, “What happened?”

“Nothing,” Mu Sisi replied with a flat tone. She had not recovered mentally from the pervert’s call, and she nearly burst into anger again when she smelled the perfume on Gao Jingqiu.

Mu Sisi did not expect that her life and marriage would end in such a miserable state. She knew that there was no turning back for her, and she was depressed and disgusted about everything around her. It was as if she had lost all hope.

Mu Sisi’s so-called husband even messed around with other women on the first day of their honeymoon trip.

Mu Sisi could not help but compared him with Qi Chengzhi. Many beautiful celebrities were also attracted to Qi Chengzhi, and they showered him with attention. However, he ignored all of them, and he only had eyes for his one true love.

Mu Sisi thought that Gao Jingqiu was terrible and utterly useless when compared with Qi Chengzhi, and that made her even more depressed about her life, and how life was unfair to her. Must she continue to live a miserable life with a man she loathed and had no affection for?

Mu Sisi did not realize that Goa Jingqiu had stepped toward her and tried to kiss her on the lips. She was surprised and taken aback by the strong perfume scent, and she frowned in disgust. Unconsciously, she avoided his kiss.

When she did that, Gao Jingqiu immediately grabbed her hair and pulled her head back to him. Then he questioned her coldly, “Why are you avoiding me? Is it because I am not Qi Chengzhi?”

Mu Sisi pursed her lips and mocked him. “Get rid of that perfume scent if you want to have a chance to compete with him. You can’t even practice a simple task like self-control after marriage, and you want to compare yourself with him? He is not a womanizer, and he certainly won’t return home with a body contaminated with such a disgusting perfume scent.”

“Did I say anything about comparing myself with him? He has Song Yu, and this is already a fact that I can’t beat. I already lost if we were comparing wives.” Gao Jingqiu smirked and pulled Mu Sisi’s hair harder. If it could, her scalp would scream in pain.

“What do you mean by that?” Mu Sisi gritted her teeth and questioned him.

Did Gao Jingqiu mean that Mu Sisi lost to Song Yu in every aspect?

In what way was Song Yu better than Mu Sisi? Mu Sisi felt nothing but anger when Qi Chengzhi chose and married Song Yu over her.

Mu Sisi always thought that she was way better than Song Yu in every aspect and that Song Yu did not deserve Qi Chengzhi’s affection. However, Gao Jingqiu told her cruelly that she was worse than that useless Song Yu.

“I mean exactly what those words meant to you. You thought that I was not comparable to Qi Chengzhi, and you thought that it was unfair for you to be married to me. But did you think that I was willing to marry you too? This is a marriage to benefit two families, so it was the same no matter who I married. I won’t have any affection for whoever I married, and she won’t matter to me. Yes, I do think that you are worse than Song Yu. Since we are not satisfied with each other, at least it makes us couples with the same goals.”

Gao Jingqiu smirked and released his grip on Mu Sisi’s hair. “You kept saying that you are a virgin, and you wanted to give your virginity to Qi Chengzhi when you were courting him. Don’t ask me how I know about this, but it is no longer a secret in our social circle. However, from our nights together, I can tell that you were not a virgin. I do not care who you lost your virginity to, but I won’t have an adulterous wife.”

Gao Jingqiu smiled coldly and continued, “I married you because of your family background. Let’s be frank. You are nothing without the Mu family, so don’t feel that you’re being treated unfairly.”

Mu Sisi gritted her teeth in anger. Other than Qi Chengzhi, no one dared to give her such humiliation.

Gao Jingqiu ignored Mu Sisi and left to his bedroom.

Mu Sisi pursed her lips in anger. Then her lips and chin quivered as she sobbed.

…

…

Christmas Eve was a rest day for Qi Chengzhi as it fell on Sunday. The elders at his family did not bother to participate in the western festival, so the usual gathering on Saturday was not postponed to the next day.

That was why Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu were at home on a Sunday. Qi Chengzhi did not want Song Yu to wander into town as her expected delivery date was near.

Both of them decided to stay at home and rest. They did not even go out for a date. Song Yu understood perfectly about her health condition. However, she decided to go along with Qi Chengzhi’s suggestion to lessen his anxiety and his tendency to overthink stuff about her.

Since it was their first Christmas celebration at home, Qi Chengzhi decided to decorate their home personally.

He bought a Christmas tree on Friday, and he put that in the living room. He had started to decorate it when he came back to the mansion the day before. Song Yu passed him the decorative ornaments as he rolled up his sleeves and went up the ladder to adorn the ornaments on the tree.

Qi Chengzhi was finally satisfied with his work on the Christmas tree that they had decorated the night before. He wrapped his arm around Song Yu and stared lovingly at Song Yu’s pregnant belly. “It would be nice if Youjin can witness all of these. I wonder if he can be delivered on Christmas day.”

Song Yu wrapped her arms around Qi Chengzhi’s waist and said, “He will still celebrate Christmas with us, from within the womb.”

Qi Chengzhi planned to prepare a sumptuous Christmas Eve feast for Song Yu, and Aunt Yang had helped with the ingredients before she went back home.

Song Yu sat at the bar counter as she watched her husband busied himself with the meal preparation. She also had her attention on WeChat posts. Most of the posts on her friend list were about love and feasts on Christmas Eve, Christmas gifts from boyfriends or husbands, and also appreciation for the husbands.

Song Yu put her phone aside and observed Qi Chengzhi’s back as he prepared dishes. His back was straight, and his head was lowered as he moved with a fast-paced, rhythmic sound of a knife hitting the chopping board. It was a comfort to look at his firm and broad back. She could also see how his muscles contracted from behind his t-shirt as he chopped the ingredients.

Song Yu almost salivated as she admired his broad shoulders that extended to his narrow waist. It was like an upside-down triangle.

Qi Chengzhi was already thirty-five years old then, but he kept fit and maintained a well-built and defined body.

Qi Chengzhi’s long pants covered his firm and muscular buttocks. If Song Yu did not have her enormous pregnant belly, she would pounce on him from behind and hugged him.

Song Yu lowered her head and grinned at her belly as she had those thoughts.

Youjin would be happy and prosperous with a father like Qi Chengzhi.

Qi Chengzhi was already cooking the dishes when Song Yu shifted her gaze back to him. Then she picked up her phone and took pictures of Qi Chengzhi as he cooked.

Song Yu glanced at Qi Chengzhi again and noticed how his firm and solid arm muscles moved as he sautéd the ingredients in the saucepan.

The scene made Song Yu excited as she could not resist the temptation that radiated from Qi Chengzhi’s powerful arm muscles.

Qi Chengzhi did his research on how to prepare a turkey for the feast. When he was all done with the cooking, the turkey looked magnificent on the dining table.

Song Yu suddenly remembered that Qin Chengzhi had complained about their lack of photographs together. So she tapped Qi Chengzhi’s forearm, and with a face as red as a tomato, she asked for a selfie.

However, since he had longer arms, Qi Chengzhi calmly took Song Yu’s phone from her so that he could take the selfie. He found the perfect angle and snapped a beautiful photo of him, Song Yu, and a dining table full of delicious dishes behind them.

Qi Chengzhi stared at the photo that he just took as if he was studying something on it. After a few moments, he said, “Come closer.”

Song Yu blushed and thought about how she just glued her face to his. Was that not close enough?

Song Yu decided to make the first move and planted a kiss on Qi Chengzhi’s cheek. Qi Chengzhi used the phone to take another selfie of them. He could see Song Yu’s slightly pinkish face in the photo.

Qi Chengzhi was quite satisfied with the photo, but he suggested to take another selfie of him kissing Song Yu’s lips.

Song Yu stared at Qi Chengzhi and wondered how her husband had transformed into a selfie maniac who loved selfies like a young girl. She was embarrassed, so she hesitated for a while before she agreed with a slightly red face.

Qi Chengzhi looked at the new photos, and then returned the phone to Song Yu with a great sense of satisfaction.

Song Yu felt nothing but warmth when she looked at their selfies on her phone. It had been a long time since she posted an update, so she decided to post them. All of her previous posts were requested by Qi Chengzhi, and she had not taken the initiative to post anything that displayed affection between the two of them. She wanted to post the selfies to show her appreciation to her handsome husband.

Song Yu grinned as she wrote the caption for the photographs. “Husband cooked all these himself for our Christmas Eve feast. Thank you husband, this is the best Christmas present ever.”

Song Yu finished her caption and double-checked it again as she wondered if the caption was suitable.

Song Yu shifted her gaze back to Qi Chengzhi and noticed that he was staring at her with anticipation. “Posting it to your friend list?”
