The Devil who devoured Snow White

"You've been checking your phone since earlier." Han Yizhou said as he lowered his fork and knife. He was currently having dinner with his wife at one of his favorite restaurants.

She placed her phone back on the side. "It's Tian Ruyi, she saw Si Hongqi so I've been checking on them."

He blinked a few times. Si Hongqi eh? The last time he saw the other man was in Japan, the day when Lu Mengjie gave birth and at the same time, her birthday.

"Our son, how's he doing?" Han Yizhou decided to ask, changing the topic instead. He obviously didn't want to talk about another guy that Lu Mengjie was close with.

Lu Mengjie's face brightened up. Yong Liwei never brought the topic about their son and knowing that he would probably just ignore her too, she decided not to speak about him. But Han Yizhou was different, he acted like a caring father so she excitedly told him about their son. She even showed him photos of him. 

"He's really your son, Yizhou. I remembered it all and you're the only man I've slept with." At least this was the only good thing that came out from the recent memories she gained. It verified that he really was the father. She was delighted and at the same time, relieved.

"We should bring him here." But as soon as Han Yizhou suggested it, he heard a voice in his head.

'You shouldn't. He'll be in danger.'

A cease was formed on his forehead as he frowned. Oh now he was willing to speak again.

"Yizhou, are you listening?" Lu Mengjie's voice brought his attention back to him.

"Hm?"

"I said I would love to bring him here but… Bai Keran wouldn't sit still. I need to deal with him first and help Jingye before bringing our son here."

'There's Si Guanlin too.' Yong Liwei reminded his other self.

Ever since the start, Han Yizhou's other self already warned him about Si Guanlin, and once again, he was warning him again. "Are you sure that our son will be fine in your hideout?"

"Of course. Sloth is there, also Madam Bella, Lust…" She paused at the reminder of Wrath. Si Guanlin may be in the mainland right now but… he could have spies working for him but Sloth and the others were already wary of him from the beginning. They have been warning her not to trust him so much as well but, she would be more reassured if their son was by her side. "I think… we should bring him here. It's better if he's with us."

…

Tian Ruyi was hugging Si Hongqi's arm as she walked out of the place with him. Her face was flushed and she was trying to keep her balance as she walked. She was drunk after having a drinking competition with the man beside her.

"See? Wasn't it fun toniiight?" Her words slurred through her lips.

Si Hongqi sighed. He didn't know what he had gotten himself into being dragged around by her. He didn't even know her name. They were not able to exchange each other's names after spending time together. "You're drunk."

She giggled. "Guess you'll have to drive my car!" 

Ah. Of course she brought her car. He sighed inwardly. "Tell me your address."

"No, tell me your address!"

He heaved out another sigh. "Let me borrow your bag."

She released his arm and quickly hugged her sling bag to her chest. "Swiper no swiping!"

"..."

"Swiper no swiping!"

He massaged the bridge of his nose. It seemed like he didn't have a choice but to bring her to his place. "Fine, fine, I won't get your bag."

The side of her lips curled up as she smiled at him. She stretched out her hand and gently patted his cheek. "Good boy~ Now take me home!"

"Then give me your address."

"It's— bluuuegh!" She vomited on the ground. 

Si Hongqi was lucky enough to avoid it since he was standing a few steps away from her.

"I don't feel well." 

He let out a helpless sigh and in the end, he decided to bring her to a nearby hotel. He planned on leaving her in the room but after he had gently placed her on the bed, she grabbed his sleeve to stop him.

"Don't… hurt him…" she muttered. She was currently having a nightmare which caused tears to form on the side of her eyes. "Please… don't leave…"

Si Hongqi knew that he should leave the woman on the bed and that he shouldn't deal with her anymore. She was just a stranger and yet… What was stopping him from leaving? He only had one woman in his heart but what attracted him to this woman? There was something about her that he couldn't just take his eyes off. Her lips.

When he realized the thoughts that entered his mind, he quickly shook his head to erase them. It must be the alcohol.

Not being able to tolerate leaving the woman alone, he stayed in the room. 

"You shouldn't sleep with your make-up on," he mumbled as he stared down at her. He went to the bathroom and found wet wipes inside so he decided to use it to clean her face. He was gentle in every way, making sure that the sleeping woman wouldn't wake up.

"Now as for your clothes…" He was hesitant to take it off but she needed to be cleaned up.

It was then that he heard a ringtone coming from Tian Ruyi's bag. His eyes lit up. He should let one of her friends take care of her. He took her phone out of her bag and checked who the caller was and as he did, his body became stiff and his eyes widened.

'Mengmeng' was written on the phone's screen.

Was this person the same Mengmeng he knew? He wouldn't know if he wouldn't answer and so he tapped the screen and did it before pressing it against his ear.

"Hello? Yiyi?"

He knew that voice well. He couldn't have mistaken it. That sweet voice belonged to Lu Mengjie.
