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

Chapter 129: Trust of the past gone



HuMing and Kang Xin returned to their room. But when HuMing turned on his phone, he was surprised to find that Yu YueLuo had already transferred two million yuan into his account.

It seemed that everything was proceeding as planned.

HuMing sat down in a chair and began writing in his journal while Kang Xin quietly sat on the bed, waiting for his instructions.

It was unclear how much time had passed, but when the first light of dawn broke, HuMing finally put down his pen and stretched.

He turned to Kang Xin, a smile appearing on his face.

"Kang Xin, it's all thanks to you today."

"Young master's orders are mine to follow," Kang Xin replied with a nod, her eyes blinking slightly. Yet, there was now a touch of admiration in her gaze as she looked at him.

Everything was going according to HuMing's plan. If things continued this way, they would soon leave the Han family.

And when that time came, HuMing could stand openly against Han ShuYi.

Clearly, Kang Xin still remembered Zhou WenLi's harsh words.

Even though she tried to hide it, those words had undeniably driven a wedge between her and HuMing.

Han ShuYi was Zhou WenLi's son, and HuMing's status in her heart had long since faded. Kang Xin understood this, but that didn't mean she would passively accept it.

If one day Han ShuYi wanted them dead, would they simply have to accept that fate?

She wouldn't---HuMing certainly wouldn't!

Yet, there were still people in this family who cared about them.

How would HuMing make his choice among them?

"Young master, what about Master Han and YunXi? What will you do about them?"

Kang Xin asked, her eyes fixed on HuMing. His smile faded, and he rested his chin on his hand, staring intently at the door.

But soon, a smile returned to his face.

"Very soon, Han HuMing will disappear from this world. No matter what experiences he had before, those who leave won't come back. It's a pity, but we must accept our new identities."

"Of course, even with new identities, it doesn't mean we can't interact with them. We just need to remember who we are."

HuMing then locked his journal back into the drawer while Kang Xin nodded, making sure to remember his words.

---

At dinner, Zhou WenLi unexpectedly served HuMing a large shrimp, placing it in his bowl.

Yet, as she looked at him, her expression couldn't have been more awkward.

She had thought HuMing was the son of that troublesome couple, but it turned out she had been so wrong.

With HuMing's true identity now uncertain, Zhou WenLi didn't know how to treat him anymore.

After what Han LiTian told her in the room earlier, she realized that she might have gone too far and pushed them apart unnecessarily.

That's why, at the dinner table, she offered HuMing the food.

HuMing, noticing her gesture, appeared rather surprised but quickly responded politely.

"Thank you."

His tone was respectful but distant.

The atmosphere at the dinner table instantly turned tense.

Han LiTian continued eating as if nothing had happened while Han YunXi glanced uneasily between her mother and HuMing.

Han ShuYi kept his head down, focusing on the food in front of him---squid and scallops that Zhou WenLi had served him.

The awkward tension lingered in the air.

Zhou WenLi glanced at HuMing cautiously, seeing that HuMing did not react, she felt as if she was making a fool of herself.

But then she remembered what Han LiTian had instructed her, and quickly put on a smile as she asked, "HuMing, is there anything you need lately? If you do, feel free to let us know, and we can get it for you."

"I already have everything I need, so there's no need to trouble the family."

Zhou WenLi struggled to maintain her composure, but she couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh in front of everyone.

With no other choice, Zhou WenLi forced a sheepish smile.

"If you need anything, just let the family know."

"Okay."

And so, the dinner ended.

Han ShuYi made an excuse to return to his room while Zhou WenLi sat on the sofa, her eyes occasionally darting toward HuMing.

Han YunXi had initially planned to help HuMing with his English, but Han LiTian called him away. Bored, she ended up seeking out Kang Xin, asking her about HuMing's recent activities.

It seemed that this household was revolving around HuMing, though not in the most harmonious way.

The full moon hung high in the sky, stars scattered across the night like a flowing river, stretching endlessly.

HuMing and Han LiTian walked together in the back garden.

The Han family's backyard was spacious, and Han LiTian enjoyed taking solitary walks there after dinner, finding it helpful for his digestion.

HuMing followed beside Han LiTian, maintaining a silent presence.

But this time, Han LiTian didn't wait for HuMing to speak. He quickly voiced what he had in mind.

"HuMing, have you been planning this for a long time?"

Hearing Han LiTian's question, HuMing showed no surprise, as everything that had unfolded today seemed too coincidental.

A closer look would reveal the flaws in it.

But HuMing hadn't intended to hide any of it. If he had done nothing, that would have been the actual red flag.

"Actually, they approached me in private."

HuMing kept his gaze fixed ahead as if lost in recollection.

"Their behavior was nothing like normal parents. It was as if they were doing everything they could to remove me from the Han family." HuMing turned to Han LiTian, and this time, he spoke without reservation.

"They still think that my presence in the Han family would cause unnecessary trouble for Han ShuYi."

Han LiTian opened his mouth, about to explain, but HuMing raised a hand to stop him.

"Dad, let me finish first."

"I understand their actions have nothing to do with the Han family. But if they truly were my parents, then my life would be nothing short of tragic---to be entangled with such people for a lifetime, I wouldn't even have peace in death."

"That's why I secretly conducted a paternity test and ultimately got this result."

"When I first found out, I had a hard time believing it. But I quickly accepted it, because I desperately needed this truth to support the actions I planned to take."

"I had intended to reveal that paternity test when the time was right, but I never expected them to use such a flimsy excuse to have someone come after me."

"In the end, it wasn't me who sent them to prison---it was their own actions."

"What I didn't expect was that Han ShuYi would try to hinder me and that Madam Han would be upset because of it."

HuMing closed his eyes slowly as if coming to terms with some harsh reality.

Han LiTian let out a long sigh. After much thought, he finally spoke.

"ShuYi certainly acted without thinking this time, but WenLi... she didn't understand the whole situation. She... she was just too anxious."

"But she used to always trust me, didn't she?"

Now that the trust of the past was gone, there was no reason for an outsider like HuMing to remain here any longer.
