Bab 575: Jika Kau Ingin Mati, Silakan Saja
Penerjemah: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi
Ye Lan terbaring tak berdaya di lantai. Saat mendengar kata-kata Xu Qingyan, hawa dingin menjalar dari punggungnya hingga ke sekujur tubuhnya...
"Pikirkan baik-baik. Sejak Tangning mengumumkan comeback hingga hari ini—dari Mo Yurou sampai Yang Xi—Tangning selalu menjadi pemenang. Dia suka bertarung dan tidak takut bertarung. Jika sesuatu bukan miliknya, dia tidak akan menginginkan sedikit pun, tapi...jika seseorang melewati batas bawahnya, maaf, dia akan bertarung sampai kamu tidak punya apa-apa!"
"Tangning tidak pernah kalah!"
Sebelumnya, karena dukungan Father Xu, Ye Lan bertindak tanpa rasa takut. Bagaimanapun juga, setiap orang yang bertahan di industri hiburan pasti punya dukungan. Lagipula, saat bersaing memperebutkan penghargaan, pemenang mengambil semuanya.
Demi kejayaan, ada metode-metode kotor lain di industri ini. Yang terpenting...
...Ye Lan tidak pernah menyangka bahwa Father Xu akan kehilangan segalanya.
Menyadari bahwa dia tidak lagi punya perlindungan Father Xu dan harus menghadapi Tang Corps, Hai Rui, dan Mo Ting yang tidak berperasaan sendirian, rasa panik perlahan menguasainya...
Bahkan, dia dipenuhi ketakutan!
"Tidak, ini tidak boleh terjadi, Suamiku. Kau tidak boleh memperlakukanku seperti ini...Aku tahu aku salah," Ye Lan merendahkan diri di kaki Father Xu. Tapi, untuk seseorang yang baru saja kehilangan posisi kekuasaannya, Father Xu tidak sedang ingin memedulikan orang lain selain dirinya sendiri. Jadi...
...dia langsung menendangnya dan menambahkan beberapa hentakan di perutnya untuk melampiaskan amarahnya.
Ye Lan menangis kesakitan sambil merengek, "Suamiku, aku tidak akan mengulanginya lagi. Sungguh..."
Melihat ini, kepala rumah tangga ingin melangkah maju menghentikan penganiayaan itu, tapi Father Xu langsung memperingatkan, "Jika kau berani campur tangan, akan kubuat kau hilang dari pandangan."
Untuk mencegah kepala rumah tangga terlibat, Xu Qingyan menginstruksikan, "Pergi dulu."
Tapi, makna sebenarnya dalam kata-katanya jelas: dia ingin dia segera mencari bantuan Tang Jingxuan.
Kepala rumah tangga itu mengerti dan mengangguk, lalu pergi.
Sementara itu, Ye Lan tidak menyerah merengek, "Suamiku, perutku sakit...sakit..."
Tapi, Father Xu tidak lagi memedulikan siapa pun di matanya. Jadi, dia langsung berjalan mendekati Xu Qingyan dan mencengkeram bahunya, "Telepon kakekmu segera dan suruh dia mengembalikan rumahku dan saham-sahamku!"
"Mengembalikan? Barang-barang ini selalu milik ibuku dan aku. Apa maksudmu dengan mengembalikan?" Xu Qingyan bertanya dingin. "Xu Zhenqing, menurutku, saat seperti ini kau seharusnya berpaling ke istrimu yang luar biasa. Karena kalian berdua sangat mesra, aku yakin dia akan melakukan apa pun untuk membantumu..."
"Kalau tidak, bagaimana dia bisa membalas semua cinta yang telah kau berikan padanya?"
"Setelah diperlakukan buruk olehmu selama 20 tahun lebih, aku sudah lama berharap kau kehilangan segalanya. Jadi, tidak ada gunanya berbicara denganku tentang hal ini."
Father Xu menatap Xu Qingyan. Kesabaran di matanya tampaknya sudah mencapai batas saat dia meraung, "Kembalikan Xu Corps padaku! Kalau tidak, jangan salahkan aku karena kejam. Apa kau mengira dengan menyuruh kakekmu merenggut posisiku dan mengambil barang-barangku, kau akan bebas dariku? Kau pasti bermimpi! Aku bilang, Xu Qingyan, aku yang melahirkanmu, jadi aku ayahmu. Kau tidak akan pernah bisa melarikan diri dariku seumur hidupmu!"
Xu Qingyan menatap mata Father Xu; mata yang penuh kemarahan. Ada banyak kali di masa lalu ketika dia membeku ketakutan oleh tatapan ini, tapi sekarang, dia tidak lagi takut. Mungkin karena dia kini punya cara untuk melawan, atau mungkin dia tidak lagi takut pada apa pun. Bagaimanapun juga, orang yang berani tidak bisa ditembus!
"Aku tahu..."
"Aku tahu kau melahirkanku. Tapi, kapan kau memperlakukanku seperti manusia?" Xu Qingyan bertanya sambil meninggikan suaranya. "Jika kau ingin memukulku lagi, silakan. Jika kau ingin membentakku, silakan sebanyak yang kau mau. Kau tahu berapa lama aku menunggu hari ini?"
"Ada kalanya di masa lalu aku bermimpi menyeretmu ke liang lahat bersamaku, terutama saat-saat aku dipukul. Tapi, saat sadar, aku bertanya pada diriku sendiri mengapa aku mengorbankan nyawaku demi brengsek sepertimu?"
"Sekarang aku telah mengambil kendali Tang Corps dan menjadi pemilik rumah ini, aku bisa melakukan apa pun yang aku mau padamu. Aku bisa menontonmu memohon belas kasihan dan bisa menginjak-injakmu. Aku bisa menontonmu hidup seperti pengemis dan menyaksikanmu menderita akibat balas dendam. Aku bisa menontonmu dibully dan mati sendirian di tempat tidur seperti ibuku!"
"Xu Zhenqing, sudah berkali-kali di masa lalu aku bisa memberi tahu kakek tentang apa yang kau lakukan, tapi aku menahannya karena kita berdarah daging. Namun, kali ini, aku tidak akan menahannya sama sekali!"
"Terlalu banyak orang di dunia ini yang menahan kekerasan dalam rumah tangga, tetapi mereka tidak punya cara untuk melarikan diri dari mimpi buruk itu hanya karena orang yang menyiksa mereka adalah anggota keluarga..."
"Tapi, mulai hari ini, aku ingin kau tahu bahwa bukan hanya aku bisa membebaskan dir

Ye Lan lay helplessly on the floor. As she listened to Xu Qingyan’s words, a cold chill spread from her back to her limbs...
"Think about it in detail. From the time that Tangning announced her comeback to the present day - from Mo Yurou to Yang Xi - Tangning has always been a winner. She likes to fight and she’s not afraid of fighting. If something doesn’t belong to her, she won’t want even a tiny slice of it, but...if someone crosses her bottom line, then sorry, she will fight with you until you are left with nothing!"
"Tangning has never lost!"
Previously, because of support from Father Xu, Ye Lan acted with no fear. After all, everyone that managed to survive in the entertainment industry had support of some sort. Plus, when competing for an award, the winner always took all.
For the sake of glory, other filthier methods existed in the industry. Most importantly...
...Ye Lan never expected that Father Xu would ever be left with nothing.
Realizing that she no longer had Father Xu’s protection and that she had to face Tang Corps, Hai Rui and the heartless Mo Ting on her own, a sense of panic slowly overcame her...
In fact, she was filled with fear!
"No, this can’t happen hubby. You can’t treat me like this...I know that I was wrong," Ye Lan groveled at Father Xu’s feet. But, for someone that just lost his position of power, Father Xu was not in the mood to care about anyone else but himself. So...
...he simply kicked her away and added a few stomps on her stomach to satisfy his anger.
Ye Lan cried in pain as she pleaded, "Hubby, I won’t do it again. I really won’t..."
Seeing this, the housekeeper wanted to step forward and put a stop to the abuse, but Father Xu immediately warned, "If you dare to step in, I will make you disappear from sight."
To prevent the housekeeper from being implicated, Xu Qingyan instructed, "Leave first."
But, the true meaning in her words was evident: she wanted him to immediately seek Tang Jingxuan for help.
The housekeeper understood as he nodded his head and left.
Meanwhile, Ye Lan did not give up pleading, "Hubby, my stomach hurts...it hurts..."
But, Father Xu no longer held regard for anyone in his eyes. So, he directly walked over to Xu Qingyan and grabbed her by the shoulders, "Call your grandfather immediately and tell him to return my house and shares!"
"Return? This stuff has always belonged to my mother and I. What do you mean return?" Xu Qingyan asked coldly. "Xu Zhenqing, I think, at a time like this, you should turn to your amazing wife. Since you are both so loving, I’m sure she will do anything to help you..."
"Otherwise, how would she be able to pay you back for all the love you have shown her?"
"After being abused by you for 20 odd years, I have long hoped for you to lose everything. So, there’s no point speaking to me about it."
Father Xu glared at Xu Qingyan. The endurance in his eyes seemed to have reached its limit as he roared, "Return Xu Corps to me! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Did you think, by telling your grandfather to strip me of my position and to take away my belongings, you’d be free from me? You must be dreaming! Let me tell you Xu Qingyan, I gave birth to you, so I am your father. You will never be able to escape me in this lifetime!"
Xu Qingyan looked into Father Xu’s eyes; the eyes that were filled with anger. There had been many times in the past when she was terrified frozen by this look in his eyes, but now, she now longer feared it. Perhaps it was because she now had the means to fight back, or perhaps she was no longer afraid of anything. After all, a courageous person was impenetrable!
"I know..."
"I know you gave birth to me. But, when have you treated me like a human being?" Xu Qingyan asked as she raised her voice. "If you want to hit me again, then go ahead. If you want to yell at me, then yell all you want. Do you know how long I have waited for this day?"
"There have been times in the past when I dreamed of dragging you down to the grave with me, especially during times when I was hit. But, when I came to my senses, I would ask myself why I would sacrifice my life over a jerk like you?"
"Now that I’ve seized control of Tang Corps and become the owner of this house, I can do whatever I want to you. I can watch you beg for mercy and I can step all over you. I can watch you live your life like a beggar and watch you suffer the consequences of revenge. I can watch you being bullied and watch you die all alone in bed the way that mother did!"
"Xu Zhenqing, there have been multiple times in the past when I could have told grandfather about what you’ve done, but I held back because we are blood-related. However, this time, I will not hold back at all!"
"There are too many people in this world that put up with domestic violence, but they have no way of escaping from this nightmare simply because the person abusing them is a family member..."
"But, from today onwards, I want you to know that not only can I free myself from you, I can also make the rest of your life a living hell! Xu Zhenqing, your life is over!"
"Completely over!"
After saying these words, Xu Qingyan looked like she had released all the pain she had endured over the years. Her eyes ended up turning red in anger...
"So, take yourself and your beloved wife out of my sight!"
"From today onwards, everything you once owned, is now mine!"
After hearing Xu Qingyan’s words, Father Xu was so angry that he couldn’t control his emotions. As a result, he reached out his arms and started strangling Xu Qingyan...
However, Xu Qingyan did not fight back. She simply smiled as she reminded her father, "Aren’t you going to check on your wife? Have you not noticed the blood coming from her body? From the looks of it, you haven’t realized that Ye Lan is pregnant."
Xu Zhenqing turned his head and looked at Ye Lan. She was indeed sitting in a small pool of blood. For a short moment, he was a little surprised, but, before long, he returned his angry gaze to Xu Qingyan as his right hand remained wrapped around her neck, "Give me back Xu Corps! Otherwise, no one will be leaving here today!"
However, Xu Qingyan was no longer afraid as she directly said to Xu Zhenqing, "You want it back? Do you really think that’s possible?"
"In that case, go die!"
"If you want to die, then go ahead, why should I die?" After speaking, Xu Qingyan turned to the doorway and yelled, "Jingxuan..."
Tang Jingxuan had been nearby the entire time, so as soon as the housekeeper stepped out, he immediately found Tang Jingxuan’s location. Tang Jingxuan and a few bodyguards waited by the door until they heard Xu Qingyan’s cry for help. They immediately rushed in to find Father Xu strangling Xu Qingyan. Tang Jingxuan directly threw a punch at Father Xu, forcing him to let go...
"Little Monkey, are you OK?"
Xu Qingyan was angry and in pain as she turned around to hug Tang Jingxuan, "Jingxuan, help me..."
"Leave the rest with me!"
