The capital was a place where people would live a wanton and extravagant life, a fact that could magnify the effects of greed. Its prosperity consisted of intertwined desires of human beings. When the night fell, the derivatives of darkness began to haunt and do evil deeds.
“Ah Zi, are you sure he will appear here today?” A petite girl hid in the end of dark alley and stared at a bar across the street.
A flat voice sounded from the other side of the phone. “You are belittling me. When have I ever given you false information? Under normal circumstances, he will definitely come here today. You’d better hurry to hide and wait!”
“Oh! I saw him! I saw him!” The girl covered her mouth and whispered, “I’ll hang up now. You should pray that I can steal his sperm successfully tonight and have a baby with a high IQ!”
Jiang Rui was slowly crossing the road. He parked at the end of the alley, walking and stopping in the middle of the road.
The man standing in the middle of the road was shrouded in the shadows. The girl could not see his face clearly, and right after she saw him raise his hands, gunshots rang out in the streets at midnight.
The girl hiding behind the trach bin was so stunned to see those in black fall down one by one before they got close to Jiang Rui.
Everyone was shot in the head, and only one person was shot in the thigh. He struggled to stand up, and Jiang Rui stepped on his wound, then said, “I will count to three.”
“One,
“Two,
“Three.”
“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!” The man on the ground screamed, but he just heard the bang of a gun. “It’s too late.” The man lying on the ground glared at him without closing his eyes. Jiang Rui frowned and took out the phone.
“Come to clean the site.” After finishing his words, he turned around and looked in the girl’s direction. However, in the next second, he fell to the ground with his limbs paralyzed. Jiang Rui watched himself be dragged into the dark alley by a petite person.
Then his belt was unbuckled, and his pants and underpants were taken off.
“Damn it, what kind of medicine is it?” He could neither move nor talk. In the darkness, he could only see that there was a pair of bright eyes staring at him.
“Tut tut, what a handsome face and a good figure!” The clear voice was especially pleasant in the dark. A pair of slim and cold hands grabbed his penis, and Jiang Rui was quite anxious but had no way to react.
What shocked him even more was that the cream applied on her hands actually caused his erection although he had been always resistant to such kinds of drugs. “No wonder she could paralyze him. Who on earth is she?”
“Captain, don’t blame me! After all, you are widely recognized as a man with a high IQ, high physical strength, and a handsome appearance!” The girl said while rubbing her hands against his penis, “I just want to borrow sperm from you. Anyway, you have so much, so you don’t care if you give some to me, right?”
In the darkness, the man’s deep breaths sounded gradually. The girl’s red face was hidden in the shadows. After a time, when the man’s breathing became increasingly heavier, the girl took out a test-tube-like instrument. Finally, clap!
The man quieted down, and the girl said, “Look, I am very responsible. I have helped you put on your pants so that you will not lose face when your henchmen come to you.” She patted Jiang Rui on his face. “You don’t have to thank me, bye!”
The footsteps faded away, and then the tires screeched as the car stopped at the end of the alley.
“Hurry up, carry the corpses away,” A rough voice shouted.
“Boss? Where is the boss?”
“Oh! Here are boss’s shoes…”
Five years later.
December, in the Lunar Year in the north; it was snowy. In the best hotel in H City, a girl, who was four or five years old and wore a cute bunny-like coat with a long-eared hat on her head, was crying in the hall.
The little girl wore lovely clothes and had an even lovelier appearance. On her little white and tender face, there were a pair of big watery eyes. Every time she blinked, there would be tears rolling down her face. All of the people around looked at her with worry.
“Honey, can’t you find your mother?” The lobby manager went over and asked. The little girl looked up with tears still on her cute little face. “My… my mother promised to pick me up, but…but she hasn’t shown up yet.”
How hateful she was to abandon such an adorable child!
At that time, everyone who had heard the girl’s words was indignant.
“Manager, this little girl and her mother had stayed in our hotel for three days. Furthermore, they lived in the presidential suite,” A waiter whispered.
The lobby manager found it even knottier. After thinking about it, she said: “Honey, if your mother doesn’t come, we have to send you to the police station.”
“No!” The little girl burst into tears when she heard that. “I didn’t make a mistake. I always did what I was told. Don’t let the police lock me up. No…!”
There was an old man who failed to turn a blind eye to it anymore. He came over and asked: “Honey, where is your father?”
“My… My mom said that Dad was taken away by an enchantress and abandoned… abandoned us.” The little girl sobbed and said with watery eyes, “She also said that the enchantress had eaten up my father…”
People around suddenly understood what was going on. A young woman said angrily, “What an asshole he was to discard such a lovely child.”
Suddenly, a waiter pointed to two people who had just gotten out of the elevator. “Well, is that her father?”
People turned to look at the two people. No one noticed that the little girl who had been crying also turned around in surprise.
“Sir, it’s okay if you have another woman, but you are really a bastard to abandon your daughter. It’s a pity that you have such a handsome face.” The young woman rushed up to verbally abuse the man, and then pointed at the woman next to him. “You are so beautiful, but why do you want to be his mistress?”
The enchanting woman was surprised with her eyes widely open. “I am your mistress?” She looked at the man beside her.
Jiang Rui frowned, with his eyes fixed on the little girl in the middle of the hall. Then, he saw a little girl like a bunny rush over and hug him. “Dad!”
“I am not your father.” Jiang Rui took a step back. When he saw the little girl’s face clearly, there was a deeper frown.
The woman next to him was shocked and said, “Rui, she looks a lot like you!”
“Exactly, look!” The lobby manager walked over to pick up the little girl to have her eyes at the same level as the man’s. “The little girl is quite similar to you. You don’t admit she’s your daughter?”
The little girl sniffed with her nose red and said pitifully, “Dad, mom doesn’t want me, and you don’t want me, either? Am I a child no one wants?”
“The man is so handsome, like a star!” The waiters around whispered.
“Bah, don’t be crazy. Look, he doesn’t even want his own daughter.”
Jiang Rui looked around coldly at the people around him and they were scared into silence. The man’s eyes were so terrifying.
“Are you sure I am your father?” He looked at the little girl.
The little girl turned a blind eye to the chill in his eyes, and reached out timidly. “Dad, hug me!”
The lobby manager quickly handed the little girl to the man’s arms and said, “Please pay the bill for the suite of her and her mother.”
“Rui, are you married?” Outside the hotel, the beauty beside Jiang Rui looked at him with grievances. “How about me?”
Jiang Rui closed his mouth lightly. “I am not married.”
“Well!” The beauty smiled immediately. “It doesn’t matter if you just have a daughter. I will take good care of her.”
The man kept silence and opened the door. “I will not have dinner with you this evening.”
“Okay, I understand.” The beautiful woman looked at the little girl. “She is still young, and you have to educate her. I will come to see you tomorrow!” After sitting in the car, she blew him a kiss.
Jiang Rui took the little girl back to the hotel room, and the little girl sat in the sofa and stared at him.
“Dad, I’m hungry!”
“I’ve already paid for your suite, so you can leave now,” Jiang Rui leaned back on the sofa and said blankly.
Tuan Zi’s eyes became red again. “Dad, do you really want to abandon me?”
Jiang Rui looked at the little girl in front of him. Indeed, her five sense organs were almost exactly the same as his. He had never had sex with a woman, or he would definitely doubt whether she was his daughter.
But the girl’s eyes were unlike his, and they were sparkling. Every time she rolled her eyes, there would be an idea.
“Since you don’t want to leave, when your mom comes for you, I’ll just ask her for the money.”
The little girl suddenly jumped off the sofa and said, “Goodbye, sir!”
Jiang Rui saw that she ran to the door and spent much time on opening the door. He said in a toneless voice, “Why didn’t you call me Dad?”
“Haha!” The little girl turned around and smiled at him sweetly. “I just remembered that my father was Ultraman, and that he was doing good deeds in other planets.”
“So you admit you were wrong, right?” Jiang Rui stood up, slowly walked to the refrigerator in the room, took out a beautiful strawberry cake, and slowly returned to sit down in the sofa.
Tuan Zi swallowed the saliva, and quietly moved a few steps closer to him. After discovering that the man left her alone, she moved a few more steps.
“Want to eat?” Jiang Rui looked at the little girl who was suddenly sitting at the table.
Tuan Zi nodded with fervor. “I want to eat!”
“Your name’s Tuan Zi?”
“Yeah!”
“What is your mom’s name?”
“Chen Chen”
“Where is she?”
“She is in the cafe across the street, waiting for me to find a fool to pay for our suite and then go to meet her!”
Jiang Rui squinted, with his arms folded before his chest. Tuan Zi was shocked to find that she had just confessed everything. She cried again when she saw the man in an uncertain mood.
There was a sudden knock on the door outside, accompanied with an urgent scream.
“Tuan Zi? Are you in there?”
When Jiang Rui heard the voice, he strained his body all at once. He stood up and walked to the door, hearing the shout coming from outside with more intensity.
“Sir, it was a mistake. Please open the door, and I will return the money to you. Please let me take my daughter away!”
“Mom!” Tuan Zi tried to open the door and began to cry. “Woo woo woo… Mom, this gentleman said that he wanted to sell me to the landlord’s house as a child bride. Please come and save me!”
Jiang Rui twitched the corner of his mouth and opened the door with a rush.
Chen Chen held Tuan Zi in her arms. Both of them began to cry together.
