Chapter 127: This Is a Woman

Zhou Yue's eyes were vacant as she stared blankly at the scene before her.

A man as strong as a god held his petite bride in his arms, as if holding a Barbie doll just taken out of its box.

The delicate flower was being wantonly ravaged by the violent storm, giving people a sense of cruel beauty!

They acted as if no one else was around, seemingly not caring at all that she was standing right there.

Zhou Yue also saw that Bai Weiwei and Sun Xiaomei had entered the home at some point; when the two saw her, they even greeted her warmly. Fearing she would get cold sitting on the floor, Bai Weiwei even considerately helped her onto the small sofa opposite Lin Dazhi.

Yet, the two of them turned a blind eye to everything happening, as if it were the most natural thing in the world!

Bai Weiwei changed into loungewear and mopped the living room floor, while Sun Xiaomei tied on an apron and went to the kitchen to busy herself with cooking.

Zhou Yue's mind was a complete blank.

Based on her understanding, she truly could not comprehend the scene she was seeing!

She felt she should be angry, but discovered she didn't even have the strength to be angry. At this very moment, that god-like man seemed to have truly become the god who ruled over this world!

She wanted to flee this place immediately, to escape this absurd and terrifying scene, but her body felt as if all its strength had been drained away!

Even more, the scene before her eyes seemed to possess some kind of magic, firmly attracting her gaze!

She didn't know how much time had passed, but in Zhou Yue's estimation, even the black men in those kinds of films weren't this exaggerated!

Until the very end, she saw Zhang Xiaoli being tossed onto the sofa by Lin Dazhi as casually as a rag doll.

And at this moment, her body was still twitching instinctively.

Seeing this, Zhou Yue's face couldn't help but twitch a few times as well.

Then, she saw Bai Weiwei help Zhang Xiaoli into the room, and Sun Xiaomei went into the bathroom to wash up before kneeling in front of Lin Dazhi to clean him.

Finally, only she and Lin Dazhi were left in the living room.

"You still haven't left?" Lin Dazhi asked as if he had just noticed her, acting as if nothing were the matter.

Zhou Yue felt her soul drifting and floating as it returned to her body.

Looking at this man before her, Zhou Yue felt he was both familiar and strange.

At this moment, she wanted to be angry, she wanted to interrogate him, she wanted to go crazy and smash things!

But she discovered with sorrow that she could do nothing at all!

For the first time, in front of this man, she had a feeling of being looked down upon, crushed, and controlled!

Why was it like this?

Wasn't this man just a spineless loser?

Wasn't he just a lousy delivery driver?

It had only been a few days since their divorce; why had he become like this?

After a long while, Zhou Yue said in a dry voice, "Lin Dazhi, is this your revenge?"

"Revenge? Revenge for what?" Lin Dazhi asked back, looking somewhat strange.

"You know perfectly well what you're asking. Isn't this you taking revenge on me for cheating?" Zhou Yue's tone carried a hint of mockery, but it was layered with a sense of caution, as if she were terrified of angering this man.

She was truly frightened by what she had just seen!

"Oh, you mean that. I've already had my revenge. That bastard Liu Haibo is already inside, isn't he? Oh right, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you: he's going to die in a couple of days, so you might have to trouble yourself to find another husband. Don't worry, I've always been a man of principle; I'm only going after Liu Haibo. If you find another husband, I certainly won't give him any trouble. After all, we're divorced now, so it's your freedom to find whoever you want." Lin Dazhi said while smoking contentedly.

In the past, it would have been impossible for him to smoke at home as he pleased; even if he snuck into the kitchen or bathroom for a few puffs, he would be scolded for a long time if Zhou Yue found out.

It was better with women like Bai Weiwei, Sun Xiaomei, and Zhang Xiaoli; when they saw him smoking at home, they would only take the initiative to serve him, then volunteer to act as his ashtray and air purifier.

"What did you say? You want to kill Liu Haibo? Lin Dazhi, murder is against the law!" Zhou Yue said in terror upon hearing Lin Dazhi's words.

"I know murder is against the law. Do you really need to tell me that?" Lin Dazhi rolled his eyes and said with a hint of amusement.

"Then why are you still going to lay a hand on Liu Haibo?" Zhou Yue said, somewhat terrified.

If this were the past, even if Lin Dazhi had said he was going to kill Liu Haibo right to her face, she would have just assumed the man was blowing off steam. After all, she knew exactly how much ability Lin Dazhi had.

But the current Lin Dazhi? She really couldn't say, she couldn't be sure!

Just a moment ago, when she heard Lin Dazhi nonchalantly say, "He's going to die in a couple of days," Zhou Yue felt a chill run down her spine. Her intuition told her that what Lin Dazhi said would definitely happen! Liu Haibo would definitely die!

Although she didn't know what method Lin Dazhi would use to kill Liu Haibo, she was just very certain!

It was precisely because of this that she was afraid, and why she couldn't help but warn Lin Dazhi—which was actually a form of probing!

Hearing her words, Lin Dazhi chuckled and said, "When did I say I was going to lay a hand on Liu Haibo? I was just thinking, he's at that age, and with his poor health—high blood pressure, diabetes—barely hanging on out there, once he's inside, can he handle that kind of torture? Who knows, he might just drop dead one day." Lin Dazhi said half-jokingly.

"Lin... Dazhi, I know what I did was wrong to you, but it's already in the past. Can you let Lao Liu off the hook?" Zhou Yue said, her words uncharacteristically carrying a hint of pleading.

Lin Dazhi, however, said cheerfully, "It was already in the past, and I never said I was going to finish off Liu Haibo. Why are you so nervous?"

Looking at Lin Dazhi's nonchalant expression, Zhou Yue couldn't guess his true thoughts, but she had a strong feeling that Lin Dazhi would definitely strike at Liu Haibo again!

And he wouldn't let her off, either!

"Dazhi, I know you still can't get over what happened between me and Liu Haibo. If you really want to deal with Liu Haibo, I can't stop you, and even if you want to deal with me, that's fine, but I beg you, please don't target my younger brother anymore, okay? He's the only son in our Lao Zhou Family; if anything happens to him, how will my parents go on living?" As Zhou Yue spoke, her eyes held a faint look of supplication.

Lin Dazhi looked at the woman before him. Having lived with her for so long, this was the first time he had seen her show such an expression.

Sure enough, women are creatures that admire strength. When you are weak, no matter how you try to please her or how much you sacrifice for her, she turns a blind eye. But when you are strong, even if you ignore her or even trample on and toy with her, she feels it is only right and proper.

This is a woman.
