Chapter 704 - 708 News about Xu Pei [5]
"Shut up!" Leng Zimo grabbed Luo Xiaoqian’s palm, pulling her into his arms, holding her soothingly while his gaze turned deeply towards the others, "All of you listen up, from now on, I don’t care if she’s dead or alive, where she is, or what she’s doing, never... never mention her name to me again. I am that heartless and ruthless. If you want to sympathize with her or pity her, that’s your business, but do not ever mention her in front of Luo Xiaoqian and me, or else, bear the consequences!"
"Zimo!" Seeing him get so angry, Luo Xiaoqian spoke softly in an attempt to calm him.
"Zimo, don’t misunderstand, and Xiao Qian, don’t feel pressured either," Huangfu Ao spoke earnestly, "As Zimo said, this matter is indeed not your fault, and we don’t blame you in the slightest."
"Right, Xiao Qian, what Huangfu said is our sincere sentiment, this matter has nothing to do with you," added Shen Yizhou.
Leng Zirui also came over, "You all go back first, we can look after things here!"
"Okay."
Luo Xiaoqian nodded gently, and Leng Zimo, holding her waist, walked quickly in the direction of the elevator.
From beginning to end, he did not look back, nor did he pause.
The few watching their figures disappear at the elevator entrance then turned to look at Xu Pei lying on the hospital bed, her fate hanging in the balance, and all they could do was sigh.
Downstairs, Leng Zimo pulled Luo Xiaoqian all the way out of the hospital doors to the car in the parking lot, opening the passenger-side door.
"Get in the car!"
Standing by the car with her face downcast, Luo Xiaoqian said, "Zimo, I’m sorry!"
With a frown and looking at her, Leng Zimo’s brows became even tighter, "You... You Little Fool, why are you apologizing to me? I knew it, you must be overthinking things in your head again, aren’t you?"
"Are you angry with me, aren’t you?!" Luo Xiaoqian lifted her face, looking at him with apprehension.
"Fool!" Leng Zimo stepped forward and embraced her, "I am angry with you, angry that you, Little Fool, always think of others first and never give enough consideration to yourself. Even if you don’t think for yourself, you should think for me and for our baby. Can’t you be a little selfish for our sake?"
"This time, I really didn’t overthink anything," Luo Xiaoqian said, pulling a smile across to him, "I promise, from now on, whatever happens, I will consider myself first and others after."
Leng Zimo looked at her helplessly, expressing great doubt in her words.
"You’re really not angry with me?" Luo Xiaoqian asked again.
"If I were angry at you, I wouldn’t bother with you," Leng Zimo patted her back, "Get in the car, we’re going home."
Both of them got into the car, and Leng Zimo carefully adjusted the tightness of her seat belt before cautiously driving onto the road, heading towards the castle, taking extra care with his driving, and keeping the speed down.
"Do you think... she..." Luo Xiaoqian began, thinking about Xu Pei and instinctively speaking, but then hurriedly shut her mouth, "I mean, um, the weather in Marseille is quite nice."
Leng Zimo gave her a sidelong glance, "If she can survive tonight, I will not pursue the past!"
He could see right through her thoughts without guessing.
Luo Xiaoqian turned away, gratitude in her eyes.
"Don’t speak of it again!" Leng Zimo spoke once more, "This is the last time. If you dare to mention her name in front of me again, I will cut ties with you!"
Looking at him, Luo Xiaoqian asked quietly, "Would you really bear to do that?"
"Little Thing!" A helpless expression appeared on Leng Zimo’s face, of course he wouldn’t bear to cut ties with her, "Don’t think I can’t handle you. I can’t bear to cut ties with you, but I can choose not to eat. Mention it one more time, and I’ll skip a meal. If you’re not afraid of me starving to death, then go ahead!"
