Chapter 165: Pay With Interest

Han Guang was stumped for any words. Han Mingli lost all his face. He couldn't look into everybody's accusatory gazes. Han Guang shakingly got up, her cheeks all stained with tears. 

"T-this is horrible! How dare you fool me like that?"

Xinyi stomped towards her with heavy steps, her gaze blazing in anger and fierceness for her son. Han Guang stumbled back, but she caught her arm and roughly pushed her.

"Let go of me, you crazy woman!"

Her gaze bore into Han Guang's making her shiver. "How dare YOU fool Siying like that! Do you know...that he was so close to getting kidnapped today?"

Han Guang sniffled. "Enough Xinyi. Just how much more are you going to malign me? I-"

*SLAP*

Her words were cut off by a sharp, piercing sound of another slap that echoed in the Han villa. Han Guang was shell-shocked to suffer a second blow.

"Aunt Guang. I am really in no mood to listen to any nonsense right now when I was this close to losing my son today," she enounced each word through her clenched jaw that expressed her rage. "Save your fake tears for someone who would actually believe you."

"Y-you…" her body trembled.

Getting slapped on the same cheek again stung hard and tears streamed even more vigorously than before. She glowered at her in hatred. Before she could yell at her, Xinyi spoke in an extremely cold voice, "You are a mother too, aren't you? Then how could you do that to a child? How would you have taken the responsibility if I had lost Siying?"

"These are all lies!" She cried hard. "Mingli. Do something! Everybody is accusing me."

Han Mingli was at a crossroads too. Too much was exposed, even her fake sprain. His mind was blank to think of any excuse to say at this point.

"Zhiyuan dear…" she ran to his side and grabbed his arm. "At least you believe me. I am your Aunt. I never said any such things to Siying…"

Zhiyuan's dark gaze shook her with terror. "So you are saying my three-year-old son is lying? A child is capable of lying to that extent and framing someone in guilt?"

Han Guang was stumped for any words. "I-I mean…"

"I didn't want to bring it to this point because I never suspected a family member would be behind Siying's disappearance. But I hope you have not forgotten that there are cameras installed in the villa that have seen you talking to Siying in the corridor and then entering my room with the juice."

Han Guang froze.

His fingers tightly curled into a fist as he threateningly glowered at her. "Should I show you Siying's state AFTER you talked to him?"

A gulp passed down his throat.

"Or should I make you hear your own words you said to Siying? Maybe that will refresh your memory?"

Zizi stormed to her side and grabbed her arm. "Aunt, is this true!? Did you really feed Siying with all that crap!"

"N-No dear…Zizi at least you believe me…"

She angrily laughed. "I will surely believe you if the cameras don't expose you!"

Han Huizhong stared at her and walked up to her. He smirked. "Did you think that if Siying disappeared, you would be able to amass this wealth and business? There would be no heir to the Han family so everything would go to Keung?"

Han Guang collapsed on her knees and begged. "U-Uncle please…forgive me this once! Actually, I misunderstood Xinyi and Zhiyuan. I really thought it was for Siying's own good."

Xinyi glared at her. "You think that saying his mother and father hate him was for his own good!? You think that brainwashing a child to run away was for his own benefit!? Are you even in your mind!"

She bit her lip hard. She didn't know how to get out of this situation. So, the only thing she could have done was to ask forgiveness.

"Uncle, Xinyi, Zhiyuan... please forgive me. I-I let my hatred consume me. I am ashamed of myself that I could stoop so low. I have realized my wrongdoings now. I-I was just too blinded by my hatred for Xinyi. I wanted Caihong to be the daughter-in-law of this family because Zhiyuan loved her. But I couldn't bear Xinyi taking her place. It should have been Zhiyuan and Caihong's child... that's why I always resented Siying. I couldn't accept him. B-But I realise my mistake now! I am horrible! I shouldn't have done that to a child. Please give me just one chance!"

Xinyi felt like clapping at her shamelessness. When she realized that she couldn't get out of this situation, she took the forgiveness route.

Yunru burst into laughter. "That's a nice joke. You created this hell of a mess and you expect sis to forgive you? Siying was lost in a big city. Anything could have happened to him. He was almost kidnapped or he could have gotten into an accident and the only thing that you got to say is sorry?"

Han Huizhong clicked his tongue. "Well Yunru my boy. This is what happens when you talk to thick-skinned people. She was already shameless about getting herself pregnant and entering the Han family. And now, it has crossed all the limits."

Xinyi gritted her teeth. "You want me to forgive you? After making Siying go through hell, you want us to forgive you!"

Han Guang vigorously shook her head. "No...no please...I have realized my mistake and I am really sorry for saying all those horrible things to Siying. P-please…"

Han Huizhong eerily smiled with danger laced on his lips. "You see niece-in-law. I already hated your guts from the beginning. And now that you gave me such a nice reason to throw you out of the house, you want me to forgive you?"

Han Guang paled.

Throw out of the Han villa?

The tears flushed out even more furiously than before. "Uncle you cannot do this...I am really embarrassed and sorry for what I did. But you cannot throw me out of this house.. I am still the daughter-in-law of this family."

"Hah! A daughter-in-law that plots against my great-grandson."

She trembled.

Han Huizhong's gaze suddenly turned ferocious akin to a wild lion. "Forgiveness is a faraway thing, my dear. At this point, you only deserve torture."

Han Guang stiffened.

"After making my great-grandson go through hell, how can I not make you go through it too?" He smiled.

Yunru warned. "Grandpa, you cannot take the law in your hands…"

Han Huizhong pouted.

"Is what I would like to say," he sighed. "But we can have a little fun before I take her to jail."

The color drained from her face. "Fun? Jail!?"

"Why? You are the guilty perpetrator who put my nephew's life in danger. We have evidence too. This is a criminal offense. Of course you will get your punishment."

Yunru smiled. "But before that, like Grandpa said, you have to pay the price for hurting my dearest nephew."

"Y-you…"

Han Guang cried and rushed to Zizi. "Zizi, please help me. Don't you like your Aunt?"

"Shut up!" Zizi yelled and glared at her. "After all this, you have the face to ask for my help!? Are you even human! Anything could have happened to Siying! He is so small…" she teared up, "How could you be so heartless! Everything only for money! You are disgusting!"

"No dear…"

"Get the hell out of my sight!"

Han Guang then ran towards Xinyi and clutched her feet. "Xinyi, please forgive me! I will do anything you want! But please don't throw me out of this house... D-Don't send me to jail!"

Xinyi harshly shook her off in disgust. "I don't care anymore. After what my son had to suffer, I don't care about you!"

Her lips trembled and tears plopped out. But she soon felt pulled in a warm embrace as Zhiyuan hugged her. His soothing voice rang in her ears. "Everything is fine now, Xinyi. Uncle and Aunt won't be spared."

She shivered and softly hugged him back. 

Han Huizhong clapped his hand and instructed bodyguards to swarm the villa. The guards immediately stood in attention and surrounded Han Mingli and Han Guang.

Han Huizhong stomped his stick hard. "Teach them a lesson until they are not even able to stand on their feet," he chuckled sinisterly, "After all, they should know what it's like to mess with Han Huizhong."

"No…! You cannot do this to us!"

But nobody heard their cries. Zhiyuan coldly said, the iciness plummeting the temperature of the hall, "My son was hurt a lot as he roamed around the city all alone. He kept starving because he had no money."

Xinyi's heart ached in pain as she heard all his suffering again.

Zhiyuan continued. "Uncle and Aunt should pay it in interest. Every single injury on my son, they would have to pay its price a hundred times!"

The guards didn't waste any time before beating Han Guang and Han Mingli black and blue. They showed no mercy on them as they kicked and hit them. All the guards were trained in martial arts, and so every one of their strikes was brutal and painful.

Han Guang could only cry and welp as sharp pain seared throughout her body.
