  Su Ruyu and Fu Jin were under the same master. Thus, they had an extremely cordial relationship as senior and junior, and they frequently exchanged learning notes on fighting styles since young. They were also often deployed for the same missions together. Fu Jin, hoping to get even closer to Su Ruyu, even deliberately learned medicine and delved into viral research, hoping to have a common hobby and topic with her.

  Fu Jin really loved her.

  Before Su Ruyu’s master, an elderly person highly skilled at fighting, passed on, he once said that he hoped Fu Jin would be able to marry Su Ruyu and impart their fighting skills to the next generation.

  That night, Fu Jin proposed to Su Ruyu.

  Su Ruyu rejected him.

  As she had already started to talk about marriage and family with Mo Shitian, she was just waiting for Mo Shitian to settle all else that was important at the Mafia and for Su Ruhua to return before she would marry him and break free from the troubles of the Mafia toward days of calm.

  That was her simplest wish.

  Despite earnestly wishing for the ideal outcome, Fu Jin did not reach it and he was really upset. Su Ruyu, who had some hints of respect toward her senior, initially wanted to advise him to forget her and look for his own happiness, but she did not expect Fu Jin’s embarrassment to turn into anger and for him to fight with her. Four months into her pregnancy, she was clearly less mobile and not his match.

  Under Fu Jin’s violent overtures, Su Ruyu was almost violated by him. As she wanted to protect her child, she did not dare to fight too hard against him lest she hurt her child. Under the coercion of Su Ruyu’s venomous silver needles, Fu Jin had to back off.

  Although they were under the pupillage of the same master, Fu Jin’s aptitude lied in fighting and medicine rather than in viral research where Su Ruyu was leaps and bounds ahead of him. As the leader in the field, Su Ruyu often had lots of poison with her lest somebody decide to take advantage of her and to prevent incidents.

  She originally thought Fu Jin would leave in shame, but the situation unfolded against Su Ruyu’s expectations. In his unstable state, Fu Jin claimed that Mo Shitian was playing with the feelings of both sisters. That was the reason why Su Ruhua left home and did not want to face them.

  Su Ruyu was utterly shocked when she learned that Su Ruhua also liked Mo Shitian.

  Su Ruyu also learned from Fu Jin that Su Ruhua knew Mo Shitian since a year ago and really liked Mo Shitian. Su Ruhua was planning to wait for Mo Shitian and hoped that she did not appear in the picture. As Su Ruyu was pregnant then, her thoughts were scrambled and did not think through everything. While she did not completely believe what Fu Jin told her, it was not tough to discover from the detailed recollection of her interactions with Su Ruhua that a part of it was true.

  Fu Jin told her that Mo Shitian had had sex with Su Ruhua, and he even replayed an audio clip for her. Su Ruyu was so taken aback that she almost broke down. Her world had almost collapsed on her.

  “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Su Ruyu coldly asked him.

  “I was afraid that I would hurt you.”


  Her blood boiled, and she coldly laughed. But she did not lose her senses. “So you’re not afraid of that now?”


  “Yes, Ruyu. I was unwilling to see you marry Mo Shitian because he played with your sister and your feelings. How is he worthy of your love? For all you know, he may just know where Su Ruhua is. He is hiding Su Ruhua so that he can enjoy what many cannot enjoy.” Fu Jin was agitated and became careless with his choice of words. “When Ruhua left, I saw her have several bouts of morning sickness. Ruyu, Ruhua may be pregnant too, which explains why Mo Shitian had hidden her from you. And to think you still foolishly believe him!

  “F*** off!” Su Ruyu solemnly said.

  “Ruyu, you may not believe me, but when you run into trouble along the way, you will know who really cares for you,” Fu Jin said.

  He was about to say more, but Su Ruyu coldly stared at him and he fell silent. Watching him leave her courtyard, Su Ruyu supported herself against the tree and sat down, thinking about Su Ruhua’s evasive glances and how Mo Shitian looked when he blatantly lied.

  She observed many things but did not think about how they were associated. She trusted them too much. Today, as she recollected in detail, there were many areas that were indeed amiss.

  Fu Jin was not without reason.

  Su Ruyu had a sleepless night due to some fetal movement. She did not bother herself with the fetal movement and went out to look for Mo Shitian without informing her parents. When she returned to the Su’s mansion, she rarely left it.

  Mo Shitian was not present, and she left him a memo for him to call her back.

  Su Ruyu called him using her home telephone, and Mo Shitian indeed picked the phone up. She asked Mo Shitian when he would return, and he said tomorrow. He was away from Riyadh for three days, and Mo Shitian could not bear to be away from her for too long.

  “Please find my elder sister too. She must be present at our marriage,” she randomly said.

  “Okay!” Mo Shitian agreed without hesitation.

  Su Ruyu’s heart was confused. Mo Shitian was back the next day, and he sneaked in at night to visit Ruyu so as not to startle Daddy and Mommy Su.

  “Why didn’t you tell me that my elder sister likes you?” Su Ruyu directly asked him.

  “You knew?”


  “Hmmph! Am I the only person in the dark when everybody else already knows?”


  “Ruyu, I just do not understand this. Is there any conflict between Su Ruhua liking me and me liking you? I have long told her that I do not like her, and are you, because of your relationship with her, forcing me to give you up?” Mo Shitian was full of displeasure. He rushed back eagerly to see her but got a question instead.

  Su Ruyu was lost for words. Yes, that was the case! Was Mo Shitian to blame?

  Wasn’t it her fault too?

  Whose fault was it then?

  “Where’s my elder sister? Did you manage to find her? I am very worried about her,” Su Ruyu said. As her pregnancy made her less mobile, Fu Jin, who was in charge of all her correspondences, claimed he did not find her. She could only turn to Mo Shitian.

  Mo Shitian’s intelligence network was slightly more complete.

  “No. Ruyu, there have been some problems in the Mafia recently, and the underworld is nowhere peaceful either. Can we talk about these after I’ve settled all those?” If those weren’t settled, he wouldn’t be able to let go of the Mafia where he had spent a good few years of his time and life. He wouldn’t have let go of the Mafia if it weren’t for Su Ruyu.

  “How much longer?”


  “Three months. I’ll try to expedite everything before our child is born.” Mo Shitian promised.

  Su Ruyu nodded.

  She did not have the courage to take out the videotape, which was hidden underneath the glass table, and question Mo Shitian about it. She forced herself to watch the videotape of Mo Shitian and Su Ruhua.

  She could clearly recognize them.

  They were doing the deed, betraying her……
