6. Sing a Song, Happy Breakup
Xie He stared at Han Wenqian, body rigid.
The torment and suffering combined with Han Wenqian’s actions made him realize just how cruel this man could be. Gradually, he had come to terms with reality…right now, all he felt towards this man was fear.
Xie He walked over with his head hung. He said quietly, “Sorry, I didn’t know that you were already here….”
He didn’t call him ge because he knew that Han Wenqian probably didn’t want to hear him call him that. He was nothing but a plaything, so what right did he have to call the other his brother?
Han Wenqian’s eyes were fixed on Xie He and he said, “Raise your head.”
Xie He lifted his head at once. It was just that he wasn’t able to hide the fear in his eyes in time. There was alarm in his black eyes.
Han Wenqian recalled everything he had just witnessed. He had seen how the young man’s sorrowful gaze had been focused on that young girl. Although he said that he wanted to break up, he obviously didn’t actually want to. He said he was sorry, but there was love in his eyes.
In his eyes, these emotions were pure and beautiful….
Han Wenqian, however, scoffed at this. He had investigated Shu Yan before. She was a very ordinary girl. She was a bit vain and scheming but was still foolish beyond belief. That was why she was so easily used by Zhou Yuebin and co. in their schemes to trap Xie He. Moreover, she didn’t seem to truly like Xie He. She lived her life as unfettered as ever before. She didn’t care about Xie He’s hardships. She only cared about her own feelings. Her heartbreak and sadness just now probably stemmed from the embarrassment of being thrown away. However, Xie He didn’t realize this…. He only saw her good points.
How was a person like this worthy of Xie He’s love?
But what made Han Wenqian even angrier was that he actually felt envious. He envied that Shu Yan could have Xie He’s pure love. Meanwhile, he couldn’t. He had treated the other with so much sincerity in his last life but all that resulted from it was a heartless betrayal. And in this life…all he had left was very likely his fear and hatred.

“Get in the car.” Han Wenqian gave Xie He a cold look. There was a trace of suppressed darkness in his voice.
Xie He sat down at once and put on his seatbelt. He didn’t dare look at Han Wenqian. Very soon, he noticed that they were not heading home, but instead, to Han Wenqian’s company. Xie He didn’t dare ask any questions. He only followed Han Wenqian in.
Xie He rarely came to the Han Family’s company. He didn’t really understand business and had no intention of getting involved. Therefore, very few people recognized Xie He. They all looked at him curiously.
Han Wenqian brought Xie He to his own office. He then began to do his work, ignoring Xie He. It was obvious that he was very busy. Therefore, after picking Xie He up, he had to continue to work. He also had to answer many calls.
Xie He sat on the sofa, feeling uncomfortable. He didn’t dare bother Han Wenqian. It wasn’t until past nine that he began to feel anxious.
Han Wenqian did not seem to have any intentions of finishing any time soon and didn’t pay Xie He any attention. But…it was almost time for Xie He’s pills.
Xie He’s face was slightly pale. His fingers were tightly intertwined. At this moment, he finally heard Han Wenqian’s voice. The other said to Xie He in a flat voice, “Come here.”
Xie He promptly walked over and looked at the other with nervousness and unease. He couldn’t quite read Han Wenqian’s mind. He didn’t know when it had started, but the older brother he had always been close to had suddenly become irritable, gloomy and difficult to read.
Han Wenqian grabbed Xie He’s wrist and pulled him onto his lap.
Embarrassment flushed across Xie He’s face but he didn’t dare resist. He only obediently sat on Han Wenqian’s lap, as if he was sitting on pins and needles. His eyelashes quivered….
Han Wenqian pinched Xie He’s chin and gently caressed Xie He’s face.
The young man’s originally slightly round face had thinned over the last few days. His chin was pointy and his skin had a sickly pallor… His watery, clear black eyes, paired with his thin face, made one feel tenderness towards him.
Even if he was ill, he was still so seductive.
Han Wenqian met Xie He’s silent plea. His lips curled up and he suddenly tied Xie He’s hands behind his back. Xie He’s wrists were very slim. It looked like he could snap it with just a bit of force. Han Wenqian didn’t tie it too tightly, but it was enough to prevent Xie He from breaking free.
Xie He trembled. He always felt like Han Wenqian wasn’t happy but he didn’t know why.
Han Wenqian knew what Xie He was afraid of. He pulled out a pill case from his desk’s drawer and put two pills in his palm. He said to Xie He, “Eat it.”
Xie He’s hands were tied behind his back so he had no way of grabbing them. However, he could feel his heart race. When he thought of how he would be in so much pain he would wish for death if he didn’t eat it…his eyes grew watery. He looked like a helpless little animal.
Han Wenqian watched him calmly, as if he had no intention to give him any reminders.
Xie He hesitated for a while, and then cautiously peered at Han Wenqian. In the end, he bent his head down uncertainly, sticking out his tongue to lap up the pills. This was the only thing that could alleviate his pain&#k2026;.
When he saw how Han Wenqian didn’t take his hand away, he knew that the other was giving his silent agreement. Therefore, he quickly licked up the pills in Han Wenqian’s palm and swallowed them down.
Han Wenqian watched as Xie He lowered his head and that soft tongue swept over his palm. The moist, soft feeling sent an electric current through the palm of his hand and into his heart.
Xie He seemed very timid. Very quickly, he raised his head up again and swallowed.
Han Wenqian stared at Xie He’s lips. Those soft pink lips looked like a budding flower…. His eyes darkened. He pushed against the back of Xie He’s head and kissed him deeply.
Xie He was kissed until he couldn’t breathe. A moment later, he let out quiet whimpers.
This kiss lasted several minutes. Han Wenqian then let go of Xie He and said, “Get off.”
Xie He looked relieved. He jumped off of Han Wenqian’s lap in a hurry. However, after a few steps, he realized that his hands were still tied. However, he didn’t dare go back to ask Han Wenqian to free him. Moreover, even if he had taken his medicine, his symptoms were still really difficult to bear. It might be better to be tied up like this.
Han Wenqian didn’t pay Xie He any more attention and continued with his own work.
Xie He sat on the sofa for a while, waves of pain crashing over him. His mind became muddled. It was terrible to bear. A moment later, he rolled off the sofa. Luckily, Han Wenqian’s office floor was covered in a thick carpet. Therefore, it didn’t hurt when he fell.
He didn’t know how much time had passed before the pain subsided. Xie He lay on the floor without any strength left in him, completely drenched in cold sweat.
He stared at the ceiling with empty eyes. He gasped for air like a fish out of water.
At this moment, a shadow fell over him.
Xie He slowly focused his gaze and saw that Han Wenqian had walked over to him. He knew that it was time for Han Wenqian to demand repayment….
Xie He shut his eyes, powerless. He then felt a chill, followed by the pain from being entered. But this was nothing. It was nothing compared to the pain from withdrawal….
He could bear it.
………………………………
Since her xuejie’s birthday party, Shu Yan had not seen Lin Xin again. He didn’t pick up her calls either.
Shu Yan had been really worried. She had been worried that something had happened to Lin Xin. However, after a short period of time, she began to feel angry. Lin Xin had always been very considerate towards her. They used to see each other practically every day. If they didn’t see each other, they would call or text. Although Lin Xin was a soft and gentle person, he had no faults as a boyfriend…. It couldn’t be that Lin Xin had had a change of heart? Was that why he hadn’t contated her? Otherwise, what else would explain his disappearance?
Shu Yan recalled Zhou shao’s words. Since Lin Xin was a young master from a rich family, he must not really like her…. She had been so self-satisfied before, thinking that she had accidentally gotten a rich boyfriend. She even fantasized about the extravagant life they would have together later. Who would have expected that the moment clues about Lin Xin’s identity were revealed, he would disappear before she could figure it out!
Today, Lin Xin had finally come to school. Very soon, people had come to tell Shu Yan about it. Shu Yan had waited all day, heart full of anticipation. In the end, Lin Xin had left without coming to see her! She had been unable to bear it anymore and had thus gone to look for him. This was a hit to her reputation! But what was even worse was that Lin Xin had actually wanted to break up with her!
Shu Yan had been so angry she had cried. So angry, so angry!
Why could he break up with her so easily?!
Just as Shu Yan’s eyes had been turning bloodshot from all her crying, her roommate had told her that someone had come looking for her. The person drove an expensive car and had said that he was the Han Group’s President, Han Wenqian’s, secretary. He had given her his name and business card, face beaming, and had allowed the curious student to size him up.
Shu Yan had been a bit afraid that she was being scammed. But after searching it up online, she could see that this person was telling the truth. Even the car and car plate were real. She had been a bit dumbfounded. She didn’t know why Han Wenqian was looking for her.
Unlike Lin Xin, Han Wenqian was famous. The Han Family has always been a topic people chatted about ardently. It was just that the conversations about them were a bit fantastical, so Shu Yan had never thought that she would one day get involved with them.
However, Secretary Song hadn’t been willing to tell her much. He had just said that she’d understand when she got there.
Shu Yan had felt conflicted for a long time. With Han Family’s status, she didn’t think that they would try anything with her. Furthermore, to be able to sit in a car like this and go to the Han corporation…the temptation was just too enticing for her, a vain girl who had yet to leave school.
Shu Yan had thus decided to go.
The other did not trick her. He brought her to the executive division of the Han Group. They then entered an elevator and went to the top floor. He settled her down in a room and told her to wait a while before he left.
Shu Yan sat there nervously. This must be the President’s office. It was really, really extravagant. Expensive carpeting had been done on the floor and there were dazzling chandeliers above her head. Before her was a thick mahogany door that was slightly open. It was open just a crack. However, Shu Yan didn’t dare to peek in. She was afraid of being caught. That would be too embarrassing.
In the beginning, it was really quiet. However, gradually, some rustling could be heard, as well as suppressed moans…
Shu Yan’s face flushed. Although she was still just a student, she knew about those kinds of things…. It couldn’t be that she was accidentally eavesdropping on a live porno? Did Han Wenqian not know that she was outside? This was so awkward!
Shu Yan wanted to leave but she soon realized that something was off. The voice of the person making suppressed, sobbing noises…why did it sound so familiar? Although that voice was really quiet and was warped with a sliver of pain, and although it had an unprecedented hoarse and seductive quality to it, she could still recognize it….
It was Lin Xin’s voice.
Shu Yan froze. She thought that she must be hearing things wrong. How was that possible? But she couldn’t resist her curiosity. A thought spurred her on…take a peek, take a peek.…
The door wasn’t closed. She’ll just take a peek. Just in case she really did hear things wrong.
She couldn’t help herself from standing up and walking over to the mahogany door. She peered into the crack. This one glance however, startled her so much she nearly let out a sound. She covered her mouth at once.
A tall man in a black suit had his back to her and was violating the young man on the carpet.
The young man was completely naked with his hands tied behind his back. He was letting out suppressed moans beneath the other man’s body. His face was full of tear streaks. It was likely because he had been done so ruthlessly that he couldn’t hold back his humiliating begging. Despite this, the other man continued to violate him.
Shu Yan’s mind blanked. What was this? What was going on?
Her limited imagination could not comprehend what she was seeing. This was Han Wenqian’s office, so that man was obviously Han Wenqian. But Lin Xin…why was Lin Xin here…being….
Her heart began to race. However, what was even more shocking was that she didn’t feel any disgust.
Because the young man inside…was so erotic. His pretty face was flushed red and he was so beautiful it shook her to the core. Both men and women would think the same.
Xie He was f*cked until he felt boneless. However, this torment was far from over. It seemed endless…. he had thought that what had happened in the past was already terrifying enough, but he found out today that Han Wenqian could still be even worse.
When it finally ended, Xie He felt like he had walked to hell and back.
From the start to the end, Han Wenqian remained impeccably clothed. He pulled his pants back up, his cold gaze falling on Xie He’s body. He draped his coat over the other and then turned to say, “Come in.”
Shu Yan had been in a trance. She didn’t think that Han Wenqian would suddenly speak. She was so startled she fell onto her butt. When she came back to herself, she shook all over…. She…she had seen something she shouldn’t have seen today. Was Han Wenqian going to kill her? She suddenly thought of all the rumours regarding the Han Family demons. It was said that many years ago, the Han Family was involved with the ‘underworld.’ Right then, her heart was completely filled with regret! If she had known, she definitely wouldn’t have come.
There was a disdainful smile on Han Wenqian’s lips. He strode over to the door and opened it, peering down at the girl sitting on the ground. With his low, elegant voice, he asked, “Did you wait long?”
Shu Yan looked at Han Wenqian. Although this man had a handsome face that could make any girl’s heart race and he didn’t act fierce towards her, when she looked into his dark black eyes, she felt an ineffable fear. It was like a pair of hands was choking her, making her unable to speak.
Han Wenqian’s eyes chilled slightly. He spat out an emotionless word: “Speak.”
Shu Yan quivered and said at once, “N-not long….”
Han Wenqian let out a bark of laughter and asked again, “How much did you see?”
Shu Yan’s face paled. Her body shook heavily.
Xie He had been lying on the floor, glassy-eyed. He showed no reaction until he heard the conversation at the door. He suddenly realized who it was outside! It was…Shu Yan!
Utter shame and pain filled Xie He’s eyes. Why…? He was already willing to endure such humiliation. Why was Han Wenqian unwilling to let him retain the last bit of his dignity? Why did he have to make the girl he liked see his filthy, contemptible side?
Why…?
Xie He’s hands were still bound. He shifted, causing the coat to slip off of him. Although his heart ached tremendously, he didn’t want Han Wenqian to hurt Shu Yan. If it wasn’t for him…Han Wenqian would never have done anything to Shu Yan.
“Don’t hurt her.” Xie He raised his head, letting out a raspy voice as he stared at Han Wenqian.
When Han Wenqian heard this voice, he turned his head around and met with Xie He’s clear black eyes. Just now, the other had been crying and begging beneath him. But now, he showed an unprecedented determination in front of the girl he loved. He was protecting his girl, like a man…. Suddenly, anger flared in Han Wenqian’s heart.
He chuckled in a low voice, tone filled with ridicule, “That depends on whether or not she’s sensible.”
Shu Yan was dumbfounded. Everything exceeded what she could comprehend. There was only fear and helplessness in her heart. She was just a university student. She had never seen such things…she was frightened into tears.
Han Wenqian smiled coldly, his frigid gaze falling on Shu Yan. He slowly said, “Lin Xin is mine. You understand this, right?”
Shu Yan nodded in haste.
Han Wenqian also nodded and said, “But I heard that he’s been a bit naughty. He actually got a girlfriend at school behind my back. Heh…so you’re his girlfriend.”
Shu Yan could hear the displeasure in Han Wenqian’s tone. Her scalp went numb from fear. Suddenly an idea popped up and she said at once, “I—I didn’t know that he was yours. He never told me…. I—I was tricked!”
As soon as Shu Yan said this, Xie He’s eyes dimmed, as if a knife had been stabbed into his heart. He stared at the girl at the door, gaze unwavering, with deep emotions in his eyes.
Han Wenqian finally smiled, as if very pleased with Shu Yan’s tact. “Then you know what you have to do?”
Shu Yan nodded rapidly, looking like a chicken pecking at grain. “I—I will definitely keep my distance. I won’t see him again. We already broke up! There’s nothing between us!”
“Very good.” Han Wenqian nodded. “Remember what you saw today but don’t speak a word of it. Otherwise, I won’t let you off.”
Shu Yan’s voice trembled. “I…I understand….”
Han Wenqian said, “Leave. Secretary Song will see you out.”
When Shu Yan heard Han Wenqian giving her permission to leave, she crawled up and escaped in a panic. So scary! Han Wenqian didn’t do anything to her but that nearly tangible atmosphere made her shudder! She didn’t dare question him at all!
Secretary Song had already been waiting outside. When he saw Shu Yan, who was frightened out of her mind, he sent her off with a calm expression.
Han Wenqian watched Shu Yan leave and then slammed the door shut.
Xie He still lay in place. No one knew if it was because he had no more strength in him or if it was because he had given up.
Han Wenqian carried him onto the sofa and untied his hands. He fondled Xie He’s ears and chuckled. “Hear that? Her feelings for you only amount to this. She didn’t even ask or think it over. She was just itching to sever her relationship with you. You should have broken up with a woman like that a long time ago.”
Xie He’s eyelashes quivered. He could no longer hold it in. He slowly opened his eyes, no ripples within his black eyes. A long time later, he quietly spoke in a self-mocking tone, “Mn. Are you satisfied now?”
Han Wenqian laughed quietly. He planted a tender kiss on Xie He’s lips. “Satisfied about what?”
Xie He said, “You made the person I like loathe and despise me. You let her know that I’m nothing but a toy to be played with. Are you happy?”
Han Wenqian gripped Xie He’s neck and bit the other’s lips hard. He said, “Yes…you’re nothing but a toy that’s not even worth mentioning. I can take back everything I’ve given you. No one who sees this depraved side of yours will like you. You’re only worthy of being played with like this by men.”
Xie He looked at Han Wenqian. Those cold words ruthlessly entered his ears, causing all the blood in his body to freeze. It was so painful, so extremely painful…but because he had already cried, his tears had dried up. He had become numb to these humiliating words. He couldn’t cry anymore.
My big brother, even if I’m not clean any more, even if you don’t like me anymore, I get it….
But why do you have to act like you hate me?
Han Wenqian fingers caressed Xie He’s cheeks. He looked at the person beneath him, emotions swirling inside his eyes. He said with a smile, “So it’d be best if you gained a bit of self-awareness and aceept your place. If I find out that you’ve been seducing people outside, I won’t put up with you anymore.”
A scene from Han Wenqian’s last life appeared in his mind involuntarily….
If that happens…I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop myself from completely destroying you.
You can only be mine. Even if you don’t love me, I won’t allow you to love anyone else.
If you’re destined to betray me…I’ll destroy you first so that you can never betray me.
