Because I Cannot Hurt You-Chapter 500 I never have and I never will!

Liao Junjie choked on his tea. "What!? You? You want to be the CEO of Liao Corps?"

Keung sneered. "Why not? Oh, are you insulted that someone from the Han family would take the reins?"

"Of course, I am! The Han and Liao families have been rivals! RIVALS!" His nostrils flared.

He rolled his eyes. "Grandpa Liao, you have really gotten senile. Those oldies in your company are only gonna fight for the position, nothing else. You will be busier handling the internal conflict instead of seeing someone actually drive the company. It will be a bloody power battle."

"Are you an idiot? Do you think the board will agree to let you or Zhiyuan handle Liao Corps? We are bitter enemies!"

Han Huizhong snorted.

Keung yawned. "That's your job to convince them. Come on. You have been the CEO for years. Don't you have any say? Have you really become that useless now that you cannot decide for your own company's future?"

Zhiyuan and Xinyi couldn't help but smile. But they didn't show it to Liao Junjie who was fuming steam out of his ears.

"Hah! As if anybody can challenge my decision! I am still the Boss!" He smirked.

"That 'still' feels as if you are trying to convince your poor soul that you 'still' have any authority left," he tilted his head.

Liao Junjie was beyond enraged. "You brat! Just you wait! I will announce in tomorrow's board meeting that you will be the CEO until Yuan is back! Let me see who dares go against me!"

"Cool. That's settled then."

Han Huizhong was proud. "That's my boy. You perfectly egged him to decide in your favor."

Liao Junjie - "..."

"You were doing that on purpose!?"

Keung sneered. "You have gotten senile, Grandpa Liao."

He breathed hard and clutched his chest. "All you Hans…The Hans are the worst!"

Zhiyuan coughed. "You always say that whenever you lose to us…" ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

"Shut up, Zhiyuan!"

Xinyi asked, "Are you sure about this, Keung? After all, Yuan has hurt you too."

Keung answered after a pause. "He did use me for his goals, but I cannot completely blame him. I fell for it in desperation, so I am equally at fault. I was stupid. Plus, working in Liao Corps is in my and Grandpa Liao's favor too."

Liao Junjie scowled. "How am I benefitted? Don't try and use sugary words on me!"

He grimaced. "I don't have time for sugary words. Heh. Being the Liao Corps' CEO, I can still compete with cousin Zhiyuan~ I don't need to compete within the Han Corps anymore."

Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes. "Hooo. So you are serious about the challenge."

"Of course, I am. We will continue our challenge, but this time it will be Han versus Liao Corps. I will still prove to you that I am better than you. Isn't it also good for Grandpa Liao? The legacy of the Han versus Liao rivalry will continue."

Liao Junjie mumbled. "It won't be Yuan though…"

He sneered. "Of course. I will be better than him. In fact, I will surpass him that he will have a hard time getting his seat back~"

"Hey! Don't you dare usurp the Liao Corps!"

"That depends if Liao Yuan can match me when he will be back," he smirked.

Zhiyuan brightened. "Great. I like this idea. Beating my cousin AND the Liao Corps? That will be the cherry on top of my cake."

"Don't get so arrogant, cousin. I am not gonna let you beat me."

"We will see that."

When Keung stepped out, he was immediately dragged by his parents into their room. "Keung! What are you doing?" Han Mingli exclaimed. "Why would you decide to work in Liao Corps?"

Han Guang gritted her teeth. "Yes, you stupid son! We are so close! The company is already yours. Why would you give that up to Zhiyuan again!? This is like hitting your own foot with an axe!"

"Keung, go back and tell them that you won't work for the Liao Corps! After Liao Yun's arrest, have you seen how bad the situation has become for them? Why would you want to jump into a sinking ship? Liao Corps is over!"

Keung shot them an icy stare. "Are you two done? I have heard enough. I won't change my decision. If it's a sinking ship, then it gets me even more excited. I would love to bring the ship back to sea. That's what a captain does, right?"

"You…" Han Guang was frustrated. "Keung you-"

"Mom, stop this already. Embezzling was not my idea years ago. You brainwashed me into it, and the result was that I was thrown out of this house. It's because of you two."

They froze.

"You.. you are throwing mud at us now!? You are our son!"

Keung smiled. "There is no need to throw mud at you. Your faces were already smudged with it. You were dirty yourself and you soiled my face too. In fact, did you two even love me like your son?"

*SLAP*

Han Guang slapped him on his cheek. She trembled with tears in her eyes. "How dare you speak to your mother like that!? I gave birth to you! Of course, I love you. Do you even need to question that?"

Han Mingli held her shoulder. "Leave him be, Guang. He has completely turned against us."

Keung didn't respond. He just took the slap and said nothing.

"How can I leave him be!? He is my son! Yeah, so what if I am greedy!? What if I am selfish! It's easy for you to blame me because you were born in this wealthy house! But me? I have lived a life where I had to sell my body to earn a living!"

Keung froze. His black eyes slowly widened in horror.

Han Guang chuckled as she cried."Shocking, isn't it? You never thought your mother was a prostitute, right? But I had no choice. My family was poor. I wasn't smart. I couldn't even complete high school. I did part time jobs, but it wasn't enough. That's how pathetic I was. Then I heard the easy way to earn money was to do this stuff. So, I did. And you know what? You fucking don't have any right to call me selfish! Because I had no choice but to be selfish!

Do you know what's it like to live without eating a decent meal for days? Do you understand how it feels wearing torn and ragged clothes? Do you realize how much it hurts when others look at you with contempt and disgust?

'Hey look, Guang is so poor. Her dress is so old and torn and she is still wearing it?'

'Hey look at Guang who wasn't smart enough to even complete high school.'

'Hey look at Guang working in that small convenient store. Isn't that embarrassing?'

"Hey look. Guang is so thin and ugly. Bet she hasn't eaten for days. Poor her.'

'Hey look at Guang who is a complete failure.'

Han Keung, you are lucky to be born here and not live a life where you had to bear such nonsense! But do you know how you got this life? It's because of me! I slept with Mingli and entered this family! Yeah, I fooled him. Yes, it was my plan to step into this prestigious family. But you know what? I don't feel guilty of doing this! I never have and I never will!"
