Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches

"At the hospital back then, was it just me and Han ShuYi?"

"If this is about being boys then yes---it was only you and him."

Zhao Wei was certain of this, and HuMing fell silent, deep in thought.

Because by this logic, they were missing one child.

After all, both the Han and Zhao families had boys; if that's the case, then there must have been another missing child.

"All of this... Han ShuYi was the one guiding you, wasn't he?"

"We're not sure, but every time ShuYi says something, we'd just start following along without realizing it. Ever since he was little, ShuYi has always been a kid with his own mind, and whatever he did would satisfy us. Eventually, it became natural to listen to him on important matters."

Zhao Wei closed his eyes, sinking into confusion.

But after raising ShuYi for so many years, why would he turn against them?

And he didn't even know that HuMing wasn't their biological child.

Unable to make sense of it, Zhao Wei found himself trapped in a mental dead end, while HuMing understood perfectly well that he was now caught in an unresolvable dilemma.

People don't easily doubt their beliefs, much like their relationship with Han ShuYi.

They thought everything ShuYi did was for their benefit, not realizing that he'd been using them all along.

In this situation, Lu GuiFang was the biggest victim.

But there would be a price for their actions. As for what that price might be, HuMing couldn't care less.

"I don't have many questions left. I won't ask if you regret it because it's meaningless. Just stay here. You'll see things clearly when you finally make peace with it."

HuMing stood up, uninterested in asking further questions.

When Han ShuYi manipulated Zhao Wei and his wife, he surely wouldn't have left any evidence behind.

These two were utterly loyal to Han ShuYi; willing to do anything for him. Now, both of them were locked up in prison, just as Han ShuYi had intended.

As HuMing turned to leave, Zhao Wei spoke softly from behind him.

"I'm sorry."

...

Li Yue looked up at the sprawling villa before her, but no one intended to let her inside.

She had already waited here for quite some time, but there was still no sign of Han ShuYi.

Han ShuYi had told her he was grounded.

That was why she came personally to see him.

But the security guard at the entrance seemed to have received instructions not to let her through.

Li Yue continued waiting under the scorching sun, hoping Han ShuYi would eventually come out to meet her.

Her head started to feel light, and she was nearly overcome by heatstroke when suddenly, a car horn blared behind her, startling her.

Instinctively, she turned to see HuMing stepping out of a car. His gaze was calm, his face devoid of expression as he looked at her.

Seeing  Li Yue's bruises, HuMing was hardly surprised. He had witnessed Lee Tian's brutal beating that day, which had nearly killed her.

Yu YueLuo cheated on him, leaving him so furious he could have killed them.

"HuMing..."

"Go home. You should know you won't get the response you want by staying here. If Han ShuYi truly wanted to see you, he would've come out by now, even at the risk of getting yelled at."

He pointed to the security camera at the door, recording their every move.

This only confirmed Zhou WenLi's words were true.

Han ShuYi really didn't like her. He'd only chosen to be with her out of duty.

Li Yue slumped helplessly to the ground as HuMing took a bottle of water from his car and placed it in front of her.

Before HuMing turned to leave, Li Yue's hand clutched the hem of his shirt. She lifted her head, her eyes brimming with the last glimmer of hope.

"HuMing, can you let me in? Can you help me see ShuYi?"

"Young master, the madam ordered not to let her in."

The guard looked conflicted as he glanced at HuMing---caught between the orders of both the young master and the madam, he clearly didn't want to cross either of them.

HuMing looked at the faint flicker of hope in Li Yue's eyes and found it almost amusing.

Since Li Yue was so determined to burn out her last shred of hope, he decided he'd help her.

Han ShuYi wanted to hide and emerge unscathed from all of this, but HuMing wasn't about to grant him that.

"Consider me paying you back for those years, Li Yue. Now, we're even."

With a dismissive wave at the guard, HuMing turned and walked into the villa, Li Yue following closely behind him.

At that moment, Han ShuYi sat in the living room, watching the latest news.

The Lee family had just been exposed for tax evasion and fraud, and before the fallout could hit, the Han family had already severed their contract with them.

Han LiTian had acted swiftly, taking care of the issue before it could spiral.

As for Li Yue, his mother had already canceled the engagement, ending any lingering troubles.

Leaning back on the couch, Han ShuYi's mind was preoccupied with how to handle HuMing.

HuMing was becoming an enormous threat. He could visibly see his family's affections shifting toward HuMing; whether it was his father or Han YunXi, they all seemed to see HuMing as a true part of the family!

But he was the Han family's rightful heir, their real family by blood!

His fist clenched tightly as he resolved that no matter what orders he was given, he would end HuMing!

The main door creaked open, and Han ShuYi quickly masked his expression.

But when he saw HuMing walk in, his eyes narrowed, and his hostility was unmistakable.

There was no need to pretend; things had already fallen apart between him and HuMing.

"Oh, it seems Young Master Han is still lounging at home. Have you been dodging Li Yue so much that you've even stopped going to school? Do you really plan to hide forever?"

HuMing's words struck Han ShuYi like a slap in the face.

Han ShuYi jumped to his feet, glaring at HuMing with a fiery intensity.

"HuMing, you orchestrated all this, didn't you?"

"Come on, Young Master Han, wasn't it you who wanted to call off the engagement with Li Yue? Her situation has nothing to do with me. But as a courtesy, I brought her to see you, considering you're grounded."

With that, HuMing pulled the person behind the door into view.

When Han ShuYi saw her, his pupils shrank, and his gaze turned murderous as he glared at HuMing.

'This guy is deliberately setting me up!'

"See how kind I am? I knew you hadn't had a chance to discuss the engagement, so I risked getting yelled at just to bring her in. Tsk, tsk, tsk, you two should have a good talk."

HuMing leaned against a stone pillar nearby while Li Yue took tentative steps forward.

"ShuYi, what Auntie said... is it true? Did you really stay engaged with me just out of duty?"
