Chapter 311: The whole truth and nothing else (1)

A strong wave crashed at the sea shoreline, making a thundering sound as if lightning had struck.

Jinhai blinked his eyes. He didn’t understand. “Why not?”

Nana said nothing for a few moments.

The silence was too heavy to bear even for Jinhai. It felt like some sort of suffocating pressure gripped his chest.

Nana turned to face the seaside and watched the rippling salty water mingling with the sand. It sparkled so brightly under the moon.

She took a few steps ahead, and her feet once again felt the soft touch of the cool sand. The sensation was so relaxing, but it wasn’t the same as the turbulence that she felt in her heart.

She softly asked, “You tell me. Why do two people marry? What are the vows they give to each other?”

Jinhai slowly said, “They marry when they realize that they love each other. That they cannot live without each other. They vow to always be with each other through thick and thin, to love them till death do them apart, share all their joys and sorrows.”

Nana asked, “And what do you have shared with me, Jinhai? Nothing. Nothing at all.”

Jinhai was about to ask her more, but suddenly, his phone buzzed.

He frowned.

Who was it at this time?

When he saw it was Xin, he remembered the task he gave him. But he didn’t have the time now.

He cut the call.

“Nana…what-what have I not shared with you?”

Jinhai slightly gulped as he felt that their conversation was taking a wrong direction.

“Is that so? Then I am asking you once again. Are you hiding anything from me?”

Once again, his phone rang. It was Xin.

Xin knew that Jinhai was with Nana tonight for the surprise, so he would only call him if it was damn urgent.

Nana didn’t turn back. She said, “It’s alright. Pick up the phone. Maybe it’s something important.”

“I-I am sorry. Just one minute.”

Jinhai picked up his call.

“Sir! There is a big problem!” Xin’s agitated voice came from the other side. Even Jinhai felt his dread and anxiousness.

“Hm?”

“Sir, you told me to check the CCTV footage of the Liang banquet, and I did. It’s not good news. When you took Miss Xiang to the terrace, Madam saw that, and she followed you.”

Jinhai froze. It felt as if 

“It seemed that she wanted to call you, but you were already far away, so she followed you. When I fast-forwarded the time, it shows here that she came back fifteen minutes later.”

It was the time when Jinhai came out too, just a minute later.

Nana had heard everything.

Jinhai watched Nana’s back, and he realized that her shoulders were trembling a little.

She was crying.

Twice…Nana asked him twice whether he was keeping something from her.

“Sir? Sir?”

Xin kept on asking about him, but what could Jinhai say?

Without responding anything, Jinhai lowered his hand and cut the call.

Silence.

“What did Xin say?” Her voice was choking a bit.

“Nana…I…” He quickly went to her side.

Jinhai held her arm and turned her to face him.

When she raised her gaze to meet his, he stiffened as he saw the tears and not only tears but disappointment and the sense of betrayal too. They screamed only one emotion, and that was heartbreak.

“Tell me, what did Xin say? Did he tell you that I know everything? I heard everything?”

Jinhai felt short of breath.

“Nana, I only did it for revenge! That Suyin hired men to rape you, and Huian abandoned you in the shed. You were so close to dying. How could I let them go? I-I know you would have been against it because you are not vengeful when it comes to yourself, but I couldn’t just leave it.”

Nana faintly smiled. “So, you finally said it.”

Jinhai couldn’t say anything back. He didn’t know where to start.

“Nana, I am really sorry. I…know you must have also heard what Huian said. Indirectly, I was the cause of your accident. I forced you to recall that horrible incident of your past. I…I have no excuses for that.”

“You shouldn’t have any excuses, either Jinhai. The last person who could have put me through that night was you, no actually not even the last person; anyone but you, Jinhai.”

“Nana-” he tried to go near her, but she raised her hand.

“…Do you have any idea what all thoughts gripped me that night? But I don’t need to tell you that because that part of realization Huian has already done with you and very clearly at that. So ironic, right? I never thought that Huian would have told you that.”

Jinhai clenched his fingers into a fist. He felt utterly ashamed of himself.

“Nana, you have every right to be angry with me. I realized my mistake, but I didn’t dare to tell you. I was scared. I-I didn’t want you to hate me, Nana, please…”

Nana laughed amidst her falling tears.

Jinhai felt his heartache. He wanted to take her in his arms. He felt guilty of lying to her.

Nana wiped her tears, but as if they didn’t listen to her, they still kept falling.

“Hate you…Perhaps I might not have hated you for this. But even after asking twice, you didn’t tell me anything, and now you also only confessed because you had no choice.”

Jinhai clenched his jaw in nervousness. 

Nana took a step closer to him. “So this time I asked you for the third time, but you still didn’t say anything about it… what you did at the Chen banquet night.”

Jinhai froze.

W-what? Chen banquet?

He took a sharp breath.

No. It is impossible. How can she know about the Chen banquet?

He silently gulped. He looked as if somebody sucked his soul out of him. He wanted to deny. He wanted to shout out that he did nothing.

But after how Nana already caught his lie about the kidnapping incident, he couldn’t utter any word in his defense.

“You…”

“Want to know how I came to know about it?” Nana asked.

She went back and took out the green folder from her bag.

“Here.”

Nana showed it to him.

Jinhai widened his eyes in shock.

This file…how did Nana get it?

“I was searching for something else. But look what I got? My medical report.”

Silence.

“This is dated just after the day when I was hospitalized. But the strange thing is that it has nothing to do with my surgery.”

He said nothing.

“The test is something of else entirely. There is a particular line highlighted below.”

He said nothing.

Nana’s face slowly turned livid in anger. Her hands were trembling as she was holding the file. She opened it and showed him the report.

“Jinhai. Look at me.”

Jinhai slowly raised his head, and his black orbs that were laced with fear and dread met her tearful brown orbs that were looking at him in hatred.

“Why does this report say about the time when I would be fertile for pregnancy?”

Jinhai couldn’t say anything. He felt an invisible pressure mounting on him as Nana was revealing every darkest of his side.

“Why did you need to know that?”

Silence.

“Why did you make the doctor do that test?”

“Na-Nana…”

“Why did the Chen banquet fell exactly at that night when I was ovulating?”

Jinhai was now truly terrified. The man who ruled the business and underworld in the palm of his hands was now standing petrified in front of his wife, who knew everything.

He recalled that dream he had.

And now he saw the situation culminate exactly into that.

“Why did the situation in the banquet force us to spend the night together?”

He said nothing.

Nana was finding it hard to talk as she kept sobbing. But she wanted to know the truth from his mouth.

“Tell me Jinhai…” her voice was low, “did you know that I was going to get pregnant? Is that why everything happened why it happened? Did you plan those circumstances?”

Jinhai shut his eyes. He knew he had no way out now.

His heart was in a complete mess. This night which he planned to be the most night turned out to be his worst nightmare ever.

He opened his eyes.

Nana was waiting. “Did you or did you not know?”

“…Yes. I knew you would get pregnant.”

*SLAP*

The sound of that slap resounded in the beach.

Jinhai’s face was harshly tilted to the side as Nana slapped him hard across his face.

He was in a state of utter shock. His mind was completely blank. He stood rooted there for a few seconds. Then he slowly felt a stinging pain on his left cheek. He raised his hand and touched it.

As he raised his head again, he saw her expression was of utter hate and rage.

“Liu Jinhai, I never knew that you could stoop so low to use me and even our…child.”
