Chapter 485: You Must Come With Me Now
An Ran’s mind buzzed, and she could no longer hear what the other person was saying.What exactly did Chi Cheng’s words mean?
He had absolutely no reason to tell such a lie to someone he barely knew.
Or perhaps, in Chi Cheng’s mind, he truly believed that in the future, she would become his wife?
An Ran bit her lower lip.
Her mother had already married Uncle Chi.
Chi Cheng was her brother...
Now, in the future, and forever.
The ambiguous feelings between her and Chi Cheng would always remain hidden from the light.
Thinking of this, An Ran’s chest felt stifled and heavy.
...I am Xiyan Baby’s exclusive divider line...
Meanwhile, at the hospital.
Ugh, my whole body feels so uncomfortable.
It was a sensation that was both painful and itchy.
Xiyan let out a soft moan, struggling to open her eyelids.
The bright light around her harshly flooded her vision.
"You’re finally awake." A hoarse voice came from nearby.
Xiyan turned her head and saw Ou Jue, sitting so close, right by her side.
Ou Jue’s tall figure was seated next to her, pulling her directly into his arms. "Is there anywhere else that feels uncomfortable?"
Xiyan felt dazed, her mind racing.
She tilted her head up, gazing at this impossibly handsome young man, her small hands clutching his sleeve. "Wait, first tell me why you’re here..."
"Idiot." Ou Jue flicked her forehead with his fingers. His cello-like voice was deep and rich. "You fainted and were hospitalized. Xia Xiyan, when will you stop making me worry?"
No one else could ever pull at his emotions the way Xia Xiyan did.
This foolish woman would drive him insane sooner or later.
"Huh? I fainted?" Xiyan stared blankly as she tried to recall.
Oh... now she remembered!
Aunt Ou had come to talk to her, then noticed her platinum necklace was missing.
After that, she’d helped search for the necklace, feeding mosquitoes in the grass near the East Gate of the Film and Television City for what felt like hours before finally finding it!
And then...
Xiyan couldn’t continue her train of thought because at that moment, the door to the hospital room was suddenly flung open.
Xiyan jumped in fright and instinctively nestled closer into Ou Jue’s arms, then turned to look.
Only to see Ou’s mother, dressed glamorously, striding toward them with an imposing presence, her gaze locking firmly onto Xiyan.
Uh-oh.
If looks could kill, Xiyan might already be dead under Ou’s mother’s murderous glare.
Ou Jue held Xiyan protectively in his arms, his cold, deep eyes meeting his mother’s. The next moment, he frowned with a strikingly beautiful expression. "Mom, why are you here?"
Seeing the two so brazenly embracing each other, Ou’s mother appeared on the verge of exploding with fury. "You’re asking me why I’m here? To see my son, do I suddenly need this woman’s permission?"
As she spoke, Ou’s mother waved her hand dramatically, pointing at Xiyan within Ou Jue’s embrace. "What kind of spell has this woman cast on you? Ou Jue, it’s like you’ve completely lost sight of who you are!"
Sheltered in Ou Jue’s protective hold, Xiyan quickly moved her lips to speak, "Aunt Ou..."
"I am talking to my son!" Ou’s mother cut off Xiyan mid-sentence, her anger escalating steadily. She turned to Ou Jue. "Do you even know that I lost my necklace today? That necklace was your father’s token of love for me! Momo helped me find it, and now she’s so weak from heatstroke she can barely function. Yet here you are, taking care of Xia Xiyan instead of her? You need to leave with me right now!"
