Chapter 38.2: Step-Brother's Toy 15

When she next came to her senses, Gu MingYue noticed instantly that she was currently in an enclosed room without windows. All four sides of the walls were wallpapered with pink Irish rose designs, while a glorious chandelier hung from the middle of the ceiling.

Though the room was extremely huge, there was no other equipment besides a television placed near the corner of the room, and an enormous European-styled bed with a wooden canopy.

A weird look flashed over her face as she finally realized what was this odd feeling she felt ever since she regained consciousness.

This place looked nothing like how kidnappers keep their living money-ticket hostage, and instead, it looked like a hidden chamber used to keep someone in captivity.

HanYi! Where is HanYi?! Gu MingYue remembered that when she was kidnapped, Song HanYi had been next to her...

"Hello, is anyone there?! Can anyone hear me?! Let me out! Let me out!" She bang her palms on the metallic door, which was the color of obsidian and was reflecting a frigidly cold light.

However, even when her hands were swollen red and her throat was sore from screaming, no one responded to her calls at all.

She leaned her back against a wall and slid to the ground as she considered her options of escaping from this place. However, the situation was not favorable to her at all, as she realized that it was impossible to escape from this secret chamber at all.

There was not even a window or a door knob!

After what felt like forever, the looming and intimidating obsidian door was pushed open from the outside, causing Gu MingYue's eyes to lit up with hope, but before she could approach the door, she was frozen in her tracks as soon as she saw the figure who appeared before her.

"Good evening, Shen Yue." The man, who was dressed in a light blue T-shirt and a pair of light gray suit pants, stood at the door and greeted her leisurely. He then entered the room with calm and slow steps before closing the door behind him.

Gu MingYue backed away cautiously as Shen Rong, who was slowly unbuttoning his shirt and belt, approached her. "Come to brother." He said casually with a smile.

Gu MingYue instantly shook her head in refusal.

To think that he would think of imprisoning a living person... This man was beyond insane!

"Shen Rong, where is HanYi? He is still a very young child, who will cry and make a fuss if he does not see his mother. Would you please release me and let me return to his side?" She spoke in a soft negotiating tone because she knew that Shen Rong hated anything that went against his will.

The man's expressions softened instantly as soon as he heard HanYi's name, but instantly turned into a cold rage as he narrowed his eyes at Gu MingYue and sighed lament, "Shen Yue, Shen Yue. How dare you marry another man knowing that the child was mine... And to think that Song ZhenYi could accept this..." He paused, "Perhaps I should praise your boldness, or maybe your infinite charms?"

"Shen Rong, listen to me..." She started, but was instantly interrupted by the man, whose cold smile deepened as he responded softly, "Call me brother."

At this point, Gu MingYue could not care less about such details, hence she nodded in response and continued quickly, "Look, brother, why are you doing this to me when you just got married recently? What if your wife finds out about this?" She started urgently, "Furthermore, HanYi is just a scandalous child that no one looked forward to, and I am your sister in name. Why would you risk your political career just to imprison me here? This is nothing but an unwise move."

"It's still early and one should know that we are missing, please let me go before it's too late..."

Shen Rong listened patiently to the woman's persuasion and silently mocked these obvious points within his heart. He clearly understood the risks that he faced, but he had planned for today ever since receiving the text message two months ago.

Shen Rong had hired a group of highly professional men to track Gu MingYue's current residence and observe her daily routines, in fact, they even found out the location of HanYi's kindergarten and managed to take some samples of his hair for paternity testing.

No words could describe Shen Rong's emotions as he felt the paternity test certificate in his hands as he stared at the pictures of the child that looked like an exact young replica of him, with his expressions softening after each image.

This was a child born from Gu MingYue and him, whose body flowed with their flesh and blood, and Shen Rong would never allow his own child to call another man father, nor would he ever allow the mother of his child to marry a man that was not himself.

In fact, an overwhelming joy spread through him like a tidal wave when he learned that Gu MingYue had given birth to his child in secret. This obviously meant that he still owned a place within her heart, and he was determined to bring them back to where they belonged - with him. He would not allow them to be homeless outside, and he wished for them to settle down with him comfortably.

"Do not worry about these petty issues, as I will handle it myself." Shen Rong answered in a soft voice, "Xiao Yue, why can't you stay by my side? I am HanYi's biological father, and we are connected by flesh and blood. My love and commitment for both of you would only exceed Song ZhenYi's, and if you return to my side, you would not have to resign yourself to another man just to stay alive."

"I believe that I do love you, Xiao Yue." His words ended here as he glanced at her expectantly.
