Because I simply love you
Chapter 342: Which hand was it?

In Liu family's underworld base, Jinhai entered carrying an icy aura around him that seemed to freeze the entire surroundings.

The four men were lying in a pathetic state after getting beaten up by Liu family guards.

But it was nothing as compared to what Jinhai had planned for them.

Jinhai stood in front of them, and the men dazedly looked at the man.

"You…"

"Who was the one that touched my wife?" 

His voice was low, quiet with a sense of deadly bloodthirst in it. His gaze was so lifeless and dark that the men couldn't help but shudder. They instinctively wanted to step back, but they were chained and couldn't move an inch.

"There are marks on her jaw. Her skin has turned red. Who did that?"

The man who had thrown Nana's phone away and clenched her jaw gulped. The others unconsciously looked at him, and Jinhai got the answer.

Jinhai stepped in front of him and smiled. But that smile was the eeriest that one could ever see.

The man begged. "You-you...I didn't do anything!"

"Which hand was it?" Jinhai asked.

"W-what?" The man was sweating badly. He was close to pee himself seeing that sadistic smirk.

"With which hand did you touch my wife?"

"I...I…"

"What happened? Where is the confidence now? Didn't you all barge in Natsukashi messing up everything you saw? Weren't you so acting so strong and menacing in front of my wife? Now, what happened?"

"P-please let me go...I-I will do anything you say! I will tell who told us to attack her!"

Jinhai chuckled for a bit and then loudly laughed. "I was going to make you vomit that information anyway. You are not doing anything different. Naturally, I must know who dare to harm my wife, right? Don't waste my time. Which hand was it?"

The men said nothing. They were internally shitting themselves hard.

"Let me guess? I could faintly see the thumbprint on her left cheek. So it was your left hand, right?"

Silence.

"Yes or no?"

Silence.

"I am not going to repeat my question."

He stepped a bit threateningly, and the man instantly blurted out. "L-left! It was my left hand!"

And in the next second, they didn't even see it when but that man's left hand lay cut away from his body.

"Ahhhhh!!!!" The man yelled in pain.

The others widened their eyes and trembled. Blood was flowing from his left shoulder, and Jinhai had expertly cut his arm off with a big dagger.

The stench of blood was beginning to roam in the base.

"Ah…" he sweated and felt dizzy.

"You were the one who also swung the bat and tried to hit Nana with that. What punishment should I give more?"

"No…"

One of the guards brought a can, and Jinhai opened the lid. They saw fumes from it coming outside.

The man whose arm was cut stared at it, horrified.

"Now, you will enjoy it even more. Trust me. The pain will be tantalizing."

Jinhai poured the liquid on his bleeding shoulder.

"Ah! AHHHHH!!!!"

It was a deadly acid, and now on top of the place where his arm was severed, he felt a burning sensation as if it was ripping him apart. The acid was melting the skin, and more blood trickled out.

"Hah...Hah…" He was huffing and taking deep breaths.

The extreme agony was tearing him apart.

"Who sent you?"

"Ughhhhh…"

"I think you need some more of this." Jinhai was about to pour the acid again, but he shouted. "No! I don't know! I don't know who gave me the money. They just said that they wanted us to k-kill that owner of that place."

"I want names."

He cried. "Really. I don't know who they are!"

Jinhai raised his brow and looked at the other men. They frantically shook their heads. "We don't know either!"

"You see, you have to give me something, or else it is just going to be worse."

The man at the right said, "We only know that we were given two requests."

"Two?"

"Y-yes…" He nervously glanced at him.

Jinhai said, "Do you want an invitation to say?"

"No! T-they wanted us to kill the b-baby and also…"

"AND?"

"After that...r-rape her too."

Jinhai froze.

Suddenly he understood who made that request. It was crystal clear. The task to kill the child must be given by Long Yanmei. And the one to rape must be definitely done by the Tangs.

They wanted revenge for Suyin. 

I see. So those parents are still plotting somewhere.

Tang Ning and Tang Feng.

He didn't need to ask anymore now. He already knew their identities.

Jinhai cleaned his hands and ordered his men. "You know what to do."

"Yes, boss!"

The next day at the hospital, Serena came rushing at the moment she came to know about Nana's delivery.

She entered her ward and saw that Nana was resting.

Nana felt someone enter, and she opened her eyes. 

Serena…

Serena nervously asked, "Can I come inside?"

Nana paused and nodded.

"I heard what happened yesterday. Are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm good."

"Nice. And of course congratulations on the twins. I am really happy for you."

"Thank you."

Silence.

Serena awkwardly asked, "If you don't mind, then can I see them?"

Nana nodded. "Okay."

Nana was later shifted into the twin's room, so the incubator was just ahead.

Serena slowly went and saw the twins were awake. They shifted their glance towards this new person who just came to meet him.

"Hey…"

Serena softly said.

"He..burrer...snan…"

The twins giggled and incoherently mumbled something as they looked at Serena.

She suddenly felt emotional, and her eyes teared up.

Their big, black eyes looked so bright and mesmerizing, and she felt as if she was pulled into them.

Gosh, they are so cute!

Serena brought a finger above them, and the twins raised their cute little arms to hold it. 

Their small faces were lit up with a bright smile.

Serena thought as if she would faint from cuteness overload.

She put her hand on her belly and imagined how her baby would like.

Or would she be even able to see it?
