Chapter 849 - Unforgivable

After leaving An Qing, Yue Ling and Liu Shan headed in the same direction as Lin Hui. However, neither expected to witness a dispute upon arrival.

Well, they had already expected it, but just not so soon.

Yue Ling stood in front of the black car as she stared at Liu Peng. After a long second, her eyes glance towards the two boys behind her subordinate.

When she saw that Liu Ye was unharmed, she sighed in relief. However, when she saw Jianan, a dangerous glint of light flashed across her bluish-green eyes.

"Unforgivable."

Jianan was an adorable little boy with big round eyes. At his age, he should be laughing and enjoying life as a child should..

However, she could see that he had suffered hardship.

His body barely had any meat, and he looked like he hadn't eaten a spec of food in days, no months.

Imagining the suffering Liu Ye and his siblings had experienced, Yue Ling's heart ached for them. She slowly closes her eyes to take a deep breath.

She needed to calm the burning rage in her heart to stop herself from going over to beat the father.

Her purpose here is to help save Liu Ye and his siblings from this man. The decision to end this man's life is not up to her but the children she lending a help hand.

Quickly as she closed her eyes, she opened them again. However, this time, her line of sight was directed at Liu Peng.

"You are a scum below all scums."

She steadily walks over to the group, with Liu Shan following in pursuit.

His expression was dark, and one could see he was holding himself back from killing the man. If his boss gives him permission, he will not hesitate to teach this despicable man a good lesson.

Yue Ling stood next to Lin Hui and used herself as a shield to protect Liu Ye and Jianan. Her eyes never moved away from Liu Peng's eyes.

"After today, you will never see these children again, nor will you ever get the chance to harm them."

She knows that the reason Liu Peng abused his children because they never fought back. Their silence was what made Liu Peng think them as scared little children.

Liu Peng was in a difficult position. He was already having a hard time with Lin Hui, and now, two more strangers suddenly appear.

Not only that, compared to Lin Hui's dangerous aura, this woman was even more dangerous.

He could conclude that one small move and it'll be the end of him. However, he suddenly thinks about Tao Meng, and the fear inside of him disappears into thin air.

He straightened his posture and made sure he didn't appear weak.

"Girl, I don't know who you are, but you're thinking too highly of yourself."

He points to Liu Ye and Jianan.

"They are my children. How I want to discipline them is up to me."

His eyes scan Yue Ling from head to toe, and he scoffs.

"Just because you are rich doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. NOW, get lost!"

He spat after his words, and his mucus landed inches in front of Yue Ling.

Seeing this, both Lin Hui and Liu Shan move towards the man. In their presence, never will they allow anyone to disrespect their boss.

However, before either man could take a step, Yue Ling calmly raised her hand to stop them.

She stares back at Liu Peng with an expression void of any emotions.

"Indeed, I am rich, as you say, but just because you are poor doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."

She returned the man's words to him and lowered her hand.

"You were given a chance to be a father. Your role is to make your children feel safe. Not to make them lose hope and be afraid of you."

The safety of her father's arms crossed her mind, and she thought about Liu Ye and Jianan.

"I will be taking these children with me. Even if you file a lawsuit against me, I am prepared."

Her head slightly turns to the side towards Liu Shan, and she gives him a faint nod.

"Take them away."

"Yes, boss."

Liu Shan did not hesitate to do as told. He turns around and takes a few steps toward Liu Ye and Jianan.

He nods his head at Liu Ye then looks at Jianan. The little boy didn't dare look at him but kept a tight hold on his older brother.

Seeing Jianan's reaction, his heart was in pain for the boy. He gets down on one knee to be at eye level and smiles.

"Hey kid, I'm Liu Shan. You don't have to be afraid anymore. As long as I, no... as long as we are here, no one can hurt you anymore."

However, despite the use of his soft tone, Jianan was still afraid. He (Jianan) had finally reunited with Liu Ye.

What if these strangers treat them no different from their father? What if they get hit again or, worse, sold off to another adult?

His little brain thought about all the scary 'what ifs,' and his eyes turned moist. He tightens his hands, clinging onto his older brother.

What if they go with these strangers only to be separated?

Liu Ye knew his younger brother more than anyone and knew what he (Jianan) was thinking. He held the boy's hand, and as Jianan looked up at him, he smiled.

"They're the good guys."

He knew this was true because he was in the same shoes as Jianan when he encountered Liu Shan and the others.

When he met Yue Ling and Lu Tian, he thought he would be thrown away or sent back to Red Moon. He had lost all hope, but these people, who he never met, were the ones to give him hope again.

Jianan stared up at his older brother. He was no doubt skeptical at first, but hearing Liu Ye's reassuring words, his heart told him to trust these people.

His little head gives a small nod, but he doesn't let go of Liu Ye's hand.

"Okay. I only trust brother and Jie."

Liu Shan felt relief when he heard Jian an's words. He pats the boy on the head and stood up.

"Let's go wait in the car."

He led the two boys in the direction of the car but didn't forget to make eye contact with Lin Hui.

Liu Shan: 'If that scum does anything, collect his fate.'

Lin Hui: 'His fate is already in my hands.'

The two subordinates quickly came to an understanding without words.

They knew Yue Ling purposely sent the two boys away as she didn't want them to be easy targets for their father.

Once the car doors opened and closed, Yue Ling confirmed that Liu Ye and Jianan were safe.

She kept her eyes on Liu Peng. When she saw him try to rush after his sons, she didn't hesitate to block his path.

"That's as far as you go."

Liu Peng glares with daggers at Yue Ling. If his eyes could shoot laser beams, Yue Ling, would have been dead.

"Get lost! How dare you take my children away?!"

His fists clench tightly, and he scowls.

"I am their father! let my children go this instant!"

Yue Ling couldn't help but chuckle with sarcasm. Anyone who saw them would undoubtedly think she was an evil woman separating a father and his children.

One would even think Liu Peng was a dotting father concerned for his children.

However, only an idiot would see Liu Peng as a good father.

"You claim yourself as their father, but no father would sell their children just to pay off their debt."

Hearing this, Liu Peng's face turned red in embarrassment. He knew that he was an alcoholic and couldn't stop gambling, but he didn't want to die with all his debt.

He had no choice but to sell his children to the people he owed money.

"I had no other choice..."

He murmurs the words under his breath, and tears swell in his eyes.

However, in a split second, anger rushed inside him, and he lunged at Yue Ling.

"What was I supposed to do? It was either my head or them!!"

Yue Ling watched the man angrily reach for her neck but remained calm.

Was she afraid of Liu Peng? Of course not.

"I don't think so, old man!"

From the side, Lin Hui quickly reacted. He steps in front of his boss and kicks Liu Peng in the stomach, sending him back where he came.

He held his leg out for a long second before lowering it. He stares at Liu Peng, who is now on the floor and throwing up from his kick.

"Is it time to collect his fate?"

Yue Ling's expressionless face stares down at the man vomiting. When she heard Lin Hui's question, she ponder for a second before slightly shaking her head once.

"Not yet."
