Chapter 382 - 381: Even If I Let Down the Whole World, I Won’t Let Her Down
Xiyan’s small hand was tightly clenched into a fist, "Take five years to fully experience the despair I felt when I was kicked out of the Xia Family. And then... rot in prison, never to dream of coming out in this lifetime."The life in prison would further teach them what is worse than death.
Xia Shiyi and Yang Shurong had already fainted. Xia Zhengxiong, a middle-aged man over 40, held his wife and daughter, crying uncontrollably.
Exhaling a breath of resentment, Xiyan looked up, "Ou Jue..."
"Hm?" Ou Jue glanced at her. The fierceness from earlier was instantly restrained in front of the girl, "You handled it well. We’ll do as you said."
Xiyan took the initiative to hold Ou Jue’s hand, "Let’s go quickly."
Mom’s still waiting for me.
Behind her, Xia Zhengxiong suddenly called out, "Xiyan..."
Xiyan paused her steps.
"Since your mother married me, she and I have never consummated our marriage. The indecent photos used to threaten you before were photoshopped. I’m sorry." Xia Zhengxiong cried increasingly harder, "She’s a good woman. It’s me who let both of you down. I will sign the transfer of the company’s operating rights."
Xiyan looked back at Xia Zhengxiong without a word, intending to leave.
"Young Master Ou." Xia Zhengxiong spoke again, sincerely, "Please treat Xiyan well. Don’t... don’t ever let her down."
"No need for you to worry." Ou Jue shot him a cold glance, "Even if I let down the whole world, I wouldn’t let her down."
...
In the hospital.
Mother Xia had already been settled in.
After a series of tests, the doctor said it was nothing serious, just a false alarm.
Now, we just need to wait quietly for Mother Xia to wake up again.
"That’s great!" An Ran was also extremely happy, directly hugging Chi Cheng and bouncing with joy.
Chi Cheng’s back stiffened, a look of evident astonishment appeared in his eyes.
This was the first time... An Ran took the initiative to hug him.
Chi Cheng turned his head to look at the girl, gently rubbed her small head with his hand, and chuckled, "Silly girl."
Then he looked at Xiyan, "Great that Auntie is fine. We’ll leave now and come back tomorrow."
Only then did An Ran realize that her hand was holding Chi Cheng’s arm.
Her small face blushed, and she hurriedly let go of Chi Cheng’s hand.
Since when did it become so naturally ’us’ to be with Chi Cheng?
After An Ran and Chi Cheng left, Xiyan also breathed a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, her body felt as if it had lost all support.
Fortunately, Ou Jue caught her in his arms.
Ou Jue lowered his head, his forehead against Xiyan’s, his voice deep and mellow, "Are you okay?"
"I’m fine, just suddenly feel exhausted..."
Looking at the small face so close, Ou Jue’s gaze deepened bit by bit, his Adam’s apple moving up and down, "Your lips are very dry."
Xiyan tested her lips, "Maybe I got really angry earlier because of Xia Shiyi and her mother. Honestly, I was so mad I almost started fuming."
The young man’s handsome face got closer, his voice low and gentle, "Do you want me to moisten them for you, hm?"
Ah, shit, was he implying something?
Xiyan’s small face suddenly turned red as she watched his thin lips coming closer.
She simply closed her eyes.
Their heated breaths intertwined, as their lips were about to meet.
Suddenly, a weak voice came from the hospital bed, "Um, excuse me..."
