Seeing that He Yuhan seemed frightened and dared not make a fuss anymore, but was just sobbing and crying, Scorpion breathed a sigh of relief.
He still has a use for He Yuhan; now is not the time to kill her.
It was precisely because he saw He Yuhan's heartbroken state that Scorpion had no doubts whatsoever.
He Yuhan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the scorpion didn't suspect anything.
Scorpion tied He Yuhan with ropes and had her dragged onto the big ship. Scorpion then boarded the ship as well.
This large ship was clearly the kind that could travel long distances. He Yuhan didn't know where the scorpion was taking her, but she was certain that the destination would be very far away.
Actually, Scorpion originally planned to kill Han Yixian and then run away, but he changed his mind after seeing He Yuhan's appearance.
Killing such a beautiful woman as He Yuhan would be a waste. He could use her to make a fortune and be more financially secure in the future. After all, after this incident, he couldn't stay in the country any longer; running away was the safest option.
But once he got out there, he had to spend money everywhere, and he didn't want to contact those people anymore, nor did he want to live under someone else's control.
He needed money to establish himself outside, and he spent a lot of money to get this ship to pick him up. He doesn't have much savings left. He Yuhan's looks and temperament could fetch a good price.
He kidnapped Han Yixian's wife and children, which was enough to make Han Yixian suffer unbearable pain. Now that Han Yixian's child is dead, he has gotten his money's worth and avenged his brother.
Once he sells He Yuhan again, he'll have made a profit. When he finds a chance to tell Han Yixian the news—that his child is dead, his wife sold and never to be found again—he'll know Han Yixian will never have a good life again. He'll live a life worse than death.
Scorpion felt this was even more satisfying than killing Han Yixian, since Han Yixian's child had at least paid for his brother's life.
While Scorpion was dreaming of his good fortune, He Yuhan was also plotting how to get rid of him. The reason she didn't try to escape was that she wanted to completely eliminate this menace and leave no hidden danger. Otherwise, they would always have to live in fear of Scorpion, not knowing when he would suddenly emerge from the shadows to harm them.
Only by eliminating the scorpions can they live in peace.
After boarding the ship, He Yuhan discovered that it was a cargo ship with only crew members and not many people on board.
One of the crew members who pulled her aboard leered at He Yuhan's appearance and said, "Oh, we've brought up a little beauty."
A man who appeared to be the leader on the boat looked at Scorpion as he boarded and said with a grin, "Boss Zhao, you're even bringing a beauty with you on your escape. You really know how to enjoy life. But with such stunning looks, it's no wonder you want to keep her by your side."
He Yuhan only then realized that the scorpion's surname was Zhao, but she didn't know if it was really Zhao.
Scorpion chuckled and said, "Then you've got it wrong. This is my enemy's wife, not my lover. Just lock her in the cargo hold for now. Let's get going quickly, the sooner we get there, the sooner we can be at ease. It'll also be easier for me to pay you for the boat."
The captain, who was leading the ship, said, "Alright, I'll do as you say. Let's set sail."
While He Yuhan and the others were adrift at sea, He Zhenhua and his family had already arrived at the Han family home. They were very anxious when they learned that He Yuhan and the child had an accident.
After explaining what had happened, He Chenglin quickly sent his two sons out to search for He Yuhan's whereabouts. Huo Xicheng naturally went out with He Zhendong to search as well.
Yu Huiru and Wang Yuqiao, both mothers, sat together, weeping bitterly. Why had their daughters suffered so much misfortune?
Yu Huiru felt a surge of resentment, as her daughter's repeated misfortunes were all due to the Han family and Han Yixian.
The Han family members are fine, but it's always the daughters who get into trouble. It's as if the daughters marry into the Han family to protect them from disaster.
Ever since my daughter met Han Yixian, she's never had a good time. She's always encountered life-threatening situations. How come she's always been so lucky to escape unscathed? This time, I'm afraid the odds are against her.
What will she do if something happens to her daughter?
After their daughter passed away, the Han family arranged for Han Yi to find another wife, and they became a harmonious family again. But the He family lost their only daughter, a daughter they owed so much to.
Han Yixian is young and promising, and has no children to burden him. With the Han family's background, what kind of wife can't Han Yixian marry? He would probably still have a lot of suitors.
Yu Huiru's resentment grew stronger the more she thought about it. If her daughter had married Huo Xicheng, none of this would have happened.
This time, the enemy is a ruthless person, Han Yixian's nemesis. Yuhan and the child are doomed if they fall into the hands of such a person.
Yu Huiru became increasingly frightened as she thought about it. She even considered having her daughter return to her parents' home if she came back, even if her daughter didn't get married and was supported by her family, it would be better than her daughter being in danger again and again.
Han Yixian looked at his mother-in-law, who was crying uncontrollably, and said with his head down with guilt, "Mom, it's all my fault for putting Yuhan and the child in danger. They've been dragged down because of me. Don't worry, I will definitely save Yuhan and the child."
Yu Huiru is no ordinary woman. She comes from a prestigious family, has received higher education, and has weathered many storms. However, her daughter's accident has made her unable to calm down. She even has an urge to beat Han Yixian up.
Yu Huiru's eyes were bloodshot as she looked coldly at Han Yixian and said, "What do you have to do to save her and the child? You don't even know where they are now, so where are you planning to go to save them? Are you just going to talk nonsense here?"
Since Yuhan met you, how many dangers and hardships has she faced?
You had just recovered from your leg and confessed your feelings to Yuhan when news broke that you were getting engaged to someone else as soon as you returned to Kyoto. Although it was false, Yuhan didn't know. She was not only heartbroken, but she also almost lost her life because of you.
She miraculously survived and escaped from the enemy, but collapsed in the dead of winter in the wilderness. If she hadn't been lucky enough to regain consciousness, she would have frozen to death.
She has faced dangerous situations several times since marrying you, each time nearly losing her life. This time, the chances of survival are even slimmer.
People marry off their daughters so that they can live a happy and peaceful life. But my daughter has repeatedly found herself in danger and risking her life for you. What are we hoping to gain?
I carried her for ten months and gave birth to her, and she left me so young. I've finally been reunited with her. I don't ask for anything from her, I only pray for her safety. I'd rather raise her for the rest of my life just to have her safe and sound.
At this moment, He Zhendong and Huo Xicheng had just entered the Han family's courtyard. Upon hearing his mother's words and thinking about the clues they had obtained, He Zhendong hesitated, fearing that his mother would not be able to accept what was to come.
