"Yanzhang, I know I've been incredibly cruel to you... but... I had no other choice because... I love you. I just... I just want you to give birth to my child..." It was a... intriguing development to say the least, and Yu Yanzhang was stunned stupid at this incomprehensible sudden transformation of Liu Wei. The blathering Liu Wei before him was a complete one-eighty from the Liu Wei he knew in the past, and he honestly had no idea what was being said in his rambling words. It wasn't until he heard the words "I'll always love you" that he finally broke free of his daze.
Shock made Yu Yanzhang jerk, and that man then continued, "I'm a murderer who's wanted by the police, there's nowhere for me to hide, and I can't stay hidden for long, so I plan on turning myself in. I killed two people, and because of that I will surely be sentenced to death. I really did turn out to be a cold-blooded bastard, because in this world, apart from you, the only one I can't bear to part with is that child you're carrying in your belly—"
Steps could be then be heard from beyond the bathroom door, and the two people inside were both startled.
Biting his lips, Yu Yanzhang fixed his gaze to Liu Wei and lightly nodded. "I promise."
Liu Wei's voice was horse as he spoke, and stream after stream of tears rolled down his eyes.
Yu Yanzhang gave no repose in return, only staring at that haggard yet still handsome face of the man before him while his mind was still a black. Having no thoughts, having no assumptions. Just eyes spread widely while he listened as Liu Wei continued, "I really never thought that you would appear again... I was so over the moon that I lost my head. But... you appeared again with Xiao Fei, and I could tell that that kid was in love with you..." A mournful smile crossed his face as spoke, "Yanzhang, whether you admit it or not, you do realise that body of yours really attracts men, right? Men can't help but become enchanted by that body of yours... It was because of you that I... that I had to spend my life in misery. It would've been better if I had never met you in this life. But even then... I still don't regret it—I don't regret it one bit..." A sigh passed through Liu Wei's lips, giving him pause before he again spoke. "I noticed Xiao Fei was was in love with you, but I also noticed you had a favourable impression of him as well, which drove me into a jealous rage that was so maddening I had to grab you and drag you off to that basement on the spot. It was actually very risky doing that type of thing. If anybody dug a bit deeper I would've definitely been caught, haha... That kid, Xiao Fei, really is an idiot! Honestly, I was forced to lock you up, because of that deal the three of us made to inform the other two when any of us found you. But after I got you I realised that I didn't want to—I had no will to share you with others again, so..."
"Yanzhang... since high school... I've always loved you."
"Hey, Yanzhang, are you in there? You need to get going, otherwise my boss will find you and I'll be dealt a miserable death!" The one whispering beyond the door was Tang Hong.
"Guh..." Only a nonsensical clucking noise could escape Yu Yanzhang in his stupefied state.
The Liu Wei before him, on his knees, lowered his head as he begged, "Yanzhang, I'm begging you, please give birth to the child in your belly."
"Do you not understand? That day at the start of our freshman year, I fell in love with you at first sight... But I was a disciplined and future family head, so how could I have fallen in love with a boy? But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop my feelings for you from growing deeper and deeper, and as as result, I couldn't help but hate you. I hated you, I hated you for having so much power over my emotions..."
"He, Tang Sen and I searched for you all over after you escaped, but we couldn't find so much as your shadow, but the three of us made a deal that the first to find you had to inform the others. You belonged to all of us, so none of us were allowed to have you alone. But you had been gone for over a decade without a trace, I was beginning to give up all hope, but I missed you more and more. Even though I had gotten married, I had no feelings for my wife. No, it would be better to say that apart from you, I can no longer feel any kind of feelings towards anyone in this world. I only wanted you to give birth to my child, it was a desire so potent I had secretly swapped my wife's medicine with birth control pills. I couldn't let her bear my children, because regardless of when you came back to me or not, only you would give birth to any child of min in this life of mine..."

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO: Part 2
Yu Yanzhang still said nothing, nothing but tremble as he stared at the crying man kneeling before him.
The tears on his face had long turned cold, and this sentence left Yu Yanzhang's lips without feeling.
"After I noticed your body had both sexes, I hated the hidden desire I had for you—like, how could I have such uncontrollable lustful feelings towards such a monstrosity?! It made me despise you more, become even more disgusted by that repugnant body of yours, but... it also made hated this fatal attraction towards you. I hated you, but I also loved you. I despised you, but I was also enthralled by you. The more I loathed you, the more I wanted you. In the end, I honestly couldn't tell if I loved you or hated you, but... I did know that I couldn't live without you and I wanted you by my side. So, during university, that was the reason why I teamed up with those other guys to imprison you. But you actually managed to escape us with the help of Tang Lei. You were still pregnant with our child, but you cruelly killed the child in your belly and dragged that weakened body of yours to escape with Tang Lei... I was enraged. Back then... I felt as though I had only hated you all along. I hated you for not caring about me. I hated you for not caring about my child... So from that day on, I swore that the day I caught you again, I would drag you down to that basement and torment you right and proper as a way to eliminate my hatred."
"So what are you planning to do to me now?"
"..." As if he was listening to a gospel, Yu Yanzhang was in a trance. He could only look on at Liu Wei uneasily with trembling lips. Then as his gaze shifted to the gradually paling sky, his anxiety filled gaze also shifted to the the bathroom door.
...more precisely, it was his child with Liu Wei.
"He, Tang Sen and I searched for you all over after you escaped, but we couldn't find so much as your shadow, but the three of us made a deal that the first to find you had to inform the others. You belonged to all of us, so none of us were allowed to have you alone. But you had been gone for over a decade without a trace, I was beginning to give up all hope, but I missed you more and more. Even though I had gotten married, I had no feelings for my wife. No, it would be better to say that apart from you, I can no longer feel any kind of feelings towards anyone in this world. I only wanted you to give birth to my child, it was a desire so potent I had secretly swapped my wife's medicine with birth control pills. I couldn't let her bear my children, because regardless of when you came back to me or not, only you would give birth to any child of min in this life of mine..."
Liu Wei stopped momentarily, a weary look was drawn from his features, while he licked his lips. Looking at Yu Yanzhang, his eyes were filled with sorrow and self ridicule. "Yanzhang, do you still think I'm insane?"
Yu Yanzhang gave no repose in return, only staring at that haggard yet still handsome face of the man before him while his mind was still a black. Having no thoughts, having no assumptions. Just eyes spread widely while he listened as Liu Wei continued, "I really never thought that you would appear again... I was so over the moon that I lost my head. But... you appeared again with Xiao Fei, and I could tell that that kid was in love with you..." A mournful smile crossed his face as spoke, "Yanzhang, whether you admit it or not, you do realise that body of yours really attracts men, right?

Liu Wei stopped momentarily, a weary look was drawn from his features, while he licked his lips. Looking at Yu Yanzhang, his eyes were filled with sorrow and self ridicule. "Yanzhang, do you still think I'm insane?"
"I was obsessed... I was never able to break free of my attraction to you, nor my hatred—my disdain..." Liu Wei croaked out a dismal laugh as he spoke. "Yanzhang, it was you wanting to kill me that finally woke me up. For so many years, I had resigned myself to the fate of harbouring these one-sided emotions, only feeling sorry for nobody but me. But I had never considered your feelings, not until you smashed that copper vase into my skull without an ounce of hesitation. I almost got an all expenses paid pass to meet the King of Hell himself, and when I woke up, I was in complete shock. It turned out that you hated me that much, right?" Yanzhang, you do hate me for everything I'd done to you, you hated me so much that you wanted to kill me, yes?" Tears fell from Yu Yanzhang's eyes, while in his heart a bitter sadness suffused his being, so much so, he was unable to speak a word. Hate?
Yu Yanzhang gave no repose in return, only staring at that haggard yet still handsome face of the man before him while his mind was still a black. Having no thoughts, having no assumptions. Just eyes spread widely while he listened as Liu Wei continued, "I really never thought that you would appear again... I was so over the moon that I lost my head.

Honestly, I was forced to lock you up, because of that deal the three of us made to inform the other two when any of us found you. But after I got you I realised that I didn't want to—I had no will to share you with others again, so..."
Liu Wei's voice chocked, and his pleading, sorrowful gaze lingered on Yu Yanzhang's face along with his stomach. "This child is mine and yours, so please give birth to them for my selfish sake. It doesn't even matter if you don't raise them! I have already transferred all my assets to your name, so it's fine if you give that child away when the time comes, and I don't mind how much you give them, just please give birth to them... is it possible now? Yanzhang? ...I've been a fugitive for the past few days and this is all I could think about. That's why I ran around all over trying to avid the police, because I had to see you again—"
This sentence was a commitment. He would surly give birth t the child in his stomach. It was Liu Wei's child.
"Guh..." Only a nonsensical clucking noise could escape Yu Yanzhang in his stupefied state.
"But, have you ever considered my feelings?" Finally able to escape his inner war of thoughts, Yu Yanzhang was able to shakily pose this question to the man kneeling before him. "It doesn't matter if you hated me or if you loved me, have you ever once treated me with the basic respect any regular person deserves? It didn't matter whether I wanted to or not, you were the one who cruelly deprived me of my freedom, who rаped me, who forced me to birth your children... It was you who took the daughter I gave birth to and boiled her alive—killing her before my eyes—" At the recollection of such a memory seemed to have rekindled the horrific image before his eyes, and Yu Yanzhang frowned in anguish, no longer able to continue.
Yu Yanzhang had no idea what he should say, but after a while he said softly, "What two people did you kill? Wasn't I the one who killed your wife?"
iana: Give me a -greenlight-gaslight... give me just one night... I'm ready to go right now, I'm ready to go right now... (Random songs will continue to be my crutch so I don't break out in a essay long rant.) My eyes sting when that little girl is brought up. On the plus side, he already planned to give birth so it's not him forcing himself to do something he doesn't want. He got a get out of jail free card (some places will still lock you up even if it was self-defence and the victim was under a great degree of panic and stress.)
"He, Tang Sen and I searched for you all over after you escaped, but we couldn't find so much as your shadow, but the three of us made a deal that the first to find you had to inform the others. You belonged to all of us, so none of us were allowed to have you alone. But you had been gone for over a decade without a trace, I was beginning to give up all hope, but I missed you more and more. Even though I had gotten married, I had no feelings for my wife. No, it would be better to say that apart from you, I can no longer feel any kind of feelings towards anyone in this world.

"I was obsessed... I was never able to break free of my attraction to you, nor my hatred—my disdain..." Liu Wei croaked out a dismal laugh as he spoke. "Yanzhang, it was you wanting to kill me that finally woke me up. For so many years, I had resigned myself to the fate of harbouring these one-sided emotions, only feeling sorry for nobody but me.

Yanzhang, you do hate me for everything I'd done to you, you hated me so much that you wanted to kill me, yes?" Tears fell from Yu Yanzhang's eyes, while in his heart a bitter sadness suffused his being, so much so, he was unable to speak a word. Hate?
But he—he didn't want to die. He as a coward, he was selfish... it wasn't easy for him to gain his freedom again, his life. So he was not at all willing to rush head first to the netherworld again. So wasn't letting Liu Wei take the fall for him a good thing? It would mean there'd be one less person in the world who know about the shameful secret of his body, and one one less of the devils that assaulted and tormented him. What's more, it as something Liu Wei was willing to do himself, all because of the child in his belly, he pleaded with him, all so he would give birth to that child.
"Do you not understand? That day at the start of our freshman year, I fell in love with you at first sight... But I was a disciplined and future family head, so how could I have fallen in love with a boy? But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop my feelings for you from growing deeper and deeper, and as as result, I couldn't help but hate you. I hated you, I hated you for having so much power over my emotions..."
The Liu Wei before him, on his knees, lowered his head as he begged, "Yanzhang, I'm begging you, please give birth to the child in your belly."
Was it hate? Was it hatred? To this devil who had bound to him for half his life, to this demon that imprisoned him in his embrace, to this handsome man who forced him to birth him a son—was it hate he felt? Was it hatred? I can't say—I can't say it! It's hard to rationalize, it's hard to explain...
Was it hate? Was it hatred?

I can't say—I can't say it! It's hard to rationalize, it's hard to explain...
"So what are you planning to do to me now?"
"The police have no idea you exist," Liu Wei explained, "They think the person who was held in that basement was Tang Sen, so there's nothing for you to worry about. As long as I take it upon myself to confess I killed my wife, they will never suspect there was another person involved."
"After I noticed your body had both sexes, I hated the hidden desire I had for you—like, how could I have such uncontrollable lustful feelings towards such a monstrosity?! It made me despise you more, become even more disgusted by that repugnant body of yours, but... it also made hated this fatal attraction towards you. I hated you, but I also loved you.

So from that day on, I swore that the day I caught you again, I would drag you down to that basement and torment you right and proper as a way to eliminate my hatred."
Why did it have to be today of all days for you to regret everything you've done in the past? Though Yu Yanzhang thought this, he couldn't suppress the desolation and grief from forming in his heart. He could stop Liu Wei from taking the fall for him, he could also go turn himself in and confess he was the one who killed his wife was him!
The tears on his face had long turned cold, and this sentence left Yu Yanzhang's lips without feeling.

Biting his lips, Yu Yanzhang fixed his gaze to Liu Wei and lightly nodded. "I promise."
He walked towards the door, but he stopped once more to look back at Yu Yanzhang with a longing gaze, the sort of gaze that was pure, warm, loving, yet pronounced by a sigh.

Liu Wei's voice chocked, and his pleading, sorrowful gaze lingered on Yu Yanzhang's face along with his stomach. "This child is mine and yours, so please give birth to them for my selfish sake.

The Liu Wei before him, on his knees, lowered his head as he begged, "Yanzhang, I'm begging you, please give birth to the child in your belly."
"..." As if he was listening to a gospel, Yu Yanzhang was in a trance. He could only look on at Liu Wei uneasily with trembling lips. Then as his gaze shifted to the gradually paling sky, his anxiety filled gaze also shifted to the the bathroom door.
Yu Yanzhang had no idea what he should say, but after a while he said softly, "What two people did you kill? Wasn't I the one who killed your wife?"
He did not continue his words, only struggling to his feet before adding, "Yanzhang, I'll be on my way now."
"The police have no idea you exist," Liu Wei explained, "They think the person who was held in that basement was Tang Sen, so there's nothing for you to worry about. As long as I take it upon myself to confess I killed my wife, they will never suspect there was another person involved."
But... none of this explained why the pain radiating in the pit of his chest felt so acrid, so cold. It was a pain so uncontrollable it could make one hunch over, and press for those—only these words to be pushed out: Why did it have to be today of all days? Why did you have to regret everything you've done, only now? Seriously? We could've had an entire different life... from our teens, you, me, him, being entangled to this day could've...
"Liu Wei, you..." Yu Yanzhang's voice teetered out with a slight tremble while Liu Wei again spoke up. "Yanzhang, I'm going to be sentenced to death either way, so what difference does it make if I killed one person or two? This is something I'm doing after thinking about it carefully, I'm doing it of my own free will. So even though I was a man who had been a lunatic for half my life, in the end, that man, could finally give a little token of love to the person he had loved so deeply. Besides, in your stomach—"
Yu Yanzhang still said nothing, nothing but tremble as he stared at the crying man kneeling before him.
He did not continue his words, only struggling to his feet before adding, "Yanzhang, I'll be on my way now."
"He, Tang Sen and I searched for you all over after you escaped, but we couldn't find so much as your shadow, but the three of us made a deal that the first to find you had to inform the others. You belonged to all of us, so none of us were allowed to have you alone. But you had been gone for over a decade without a trace, I was beginning to give up all hope, but I missed you more and more. Even though I had gotten married, I had no feelings for my wife. No, it would be better to say that apart from you, I can no longer feel any kind of feelings towards anyone in this world. I only wanted you to give birth to my child, it was a desire so potent I had secretly swapped my wife's medicine with birth control pills. I couldn't let her bear my children, because regardless of when you came back to me or not, only you would give birth to any child of min in this life of mine..."
He walked towards the door, but he stopped once more to look back at Yu Yanzhang with a longing gaze, the sort of gaze that was pure, warm, loving, yet pronounced by a sigh.
But reality of their fate was already before them, so was there anything that could be done?
Why did it have to be today of all days for you to regret everything you've done in the past? Though Yu Yanzhang thought this, he couldn't suppress the desolation and grief from forming in his heart. He could stop Liu Wei from taking the fall for him, he could also go turn himself in and confess he was the one who killed his wife was him!

"Guh..." Only a nonsensical clucking noise could escape Yu Yanzhang in his stupefied state.
But... none of this explained why the pain radiating in the pit of his chest felt so acrid, so cold. It was a pain so uncontrollable it could make one hunch over, and press for those—only these words to be pushed out: Why did it have to be today of all days?

"Yanzhang... since high school... I've always loved you."
But reality of their fate was already before them, so was there anything that could be done?
"Guh..." Only a nonsensical clucking noise could escape Yu Yanzhang in his stupefied state.
Biting his lips, Yu Yanzhang fixed his gaze to Liu Wei and lightly nodded. "I promise."
Steps could be then be heard from beyond the bathroom door, and the two people inside were both startled.
This sentence was a commitment. He would surly give birth t the child in his stomach. It was Liu Wei's child.
"Yanzhang, I know I've been incredibly cruel to you... but... I had no other choice because... I love you. I just... I just want you to give birth to my child..." It was a... intriguing development to say the least, and Yu Yanzhang was stunned stupid at this incomprehensible sudden transformation of Liu Wei. The blathering Liu Wei before him was a complete one-eighty from the Liu Wei he knew in the past, and he honestly had no idea what was being said in his rambling words. It wasn't until he heard the words "I'll always love you" that he finally broke free of his daze.
"So what are you planning to do to me now?"
The Liu Wei before him, on his knees, lowered his head as he begged, "Yanzhang, I'm begging you, please give birth to the child in your belly."
...more precisely, it was his child with Liu Wei.
"Do you not understand? That day at the start of our freshman year, I fell in love with you at first sight... But I was a disciplined and future family head, so how could I have fallen in love with a boy? But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop my feelings for you from growing deeper and deeper, and as as result, I couldn't help but hate you. I hated you, I hated you for having so much power over my emotions..."
And currently, it was dawn, and the brilliant red of the waking sun was already bleeding in through the bathroom window.
Why did it have to be today of all days for you to regret everything you've done in the past? Though Yu Yanzhang thought this, he couldn't suppress the desolation and grief from forming in his heart. He could stop Liu Wei from taking the fall for him, he could also go turn himself in and confess he was the one who killed his wife was him!
The Liu Wei before him, on his knees, lowered his head as he begged, "Yanzhang, I'm begging you, please give birth to the child in your belly."
"Yanzhang, I know I've been incredibly cruel to you... but... I had no other choice because... I love you. I just... I just want you to give birth to my child..."

Steps could be then be heard from beyond the bathroom door, and the two people inside were both startled.
"Liu Wei, you..." Yu Yanzhang's voice teetered out with a slight tremble while Liu Wei again spoke up. "Yanzhang, I'm going to be sentenced to death either way, so what difference does it make if I killed one person or two? This is something I'm doing after thinking about it carefully, I'm doing it of my own free will. So even though I was a man who had been a lunatic for half my life, in the end, that man, could finally give a little token of love to the person he had loved so deeply. Besides, in your stomach—"
"I was obsessed... I was never able to break free of my attraction to you, nor my hatred—my disdain..." Liu Wei croaked out a dismal laugh as he spoke. "Yanzhang, it was you wanting to kill me that finally woke me up. For so many years, I had resigned myself to the fate of harbouring these one-sided emotions, only feeling sorry for nobody but me. But I had never considered your feelings, not until you smashed that copper vase into my skull without an ounce of hesitation. I almost got an all expenses paid pass to meet the King of Hell himself, and when I woke up, I was in complete shock. It turned out that you hated me that much, right?" Yanzhang, you do hate me for everything I'd done to you, you hated me so much that you wanted to kill me, yes?" Tears fell from Yu Yanzhang's eyes, while in his heart a bitter sadness suffused his being, so much so, he was unable to speak a word. Hate?
...more precisely, it was his child with Liu Wei.
"Hey, Yanzhang, are you in there? You need to get going, otherwise my boss will find you and I'll be dealt a miserable death!" The one whispering beyond the door was Tang Hong.
And currently, it was dawn, and the brilliant red of the waking sun was already bleeding in through the bathroom window.
