Chapter 76 Xu Heyi: "Yes, I'm here."

Jiang Nuanzhu was sleeping in the middle of the night when he was suddenly awakened by some small noises.

She opened her eyes blankly.

Before she could even see where she was, she heard the man's soothing voice: "Be good, it's okay. I'm here."

Jiang Nuanzhu called out in confusion, "Xu Heyi?"

"Yeah, I'm here."

His deep voice was full of doting, like the smoke rising from an incense burner, quietly soothing all frightened emotions.

Jiang Nuanzhu's heart immediately calmed down and he fell into a deep sleep again.

——

Xu Heyi had just finished comforting Jiang Nuanzhu and gently closed the door.

The secretary's face was full of anxiety: "Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xu hanged herself in the hospital!"

There was no emotion in Xu Heyi's eyes. "Dead?"

Secretary: "...He didn't die. He was found and rescued in time."

Xu Heyi's eyes were calm, not revealing any joy or anger: "Let's go and take a look."

"yes."

Pushing the door and entering the ward, Mrs. Xu, who had been comforted, started to throw a tantrum again when she saw Xu Heyi.

"I gave birth to two children for the Xu family. Even if I didn't contribute anything, I still worked hard. Yet, they're forcing me to divorce for such a small matter... Since the Xu family won't let me live, then I won't live anymore!"

As she spoke, Mrs. Xu began to grab the white silk that had fallen on the ground and struggled to hang herself.

The people around him tried their best to stop him, but Xu's father sat on the bed with a dejected look on his face.

This scene has been played out countless times in the Xu family.

The secretary muttered quietly, "Has he watched too many TV dramas? He even prepared a white silk scarf?"

Nowadays, which good person would use white silk to hang himself?

What if you are acting in a Qing Dynasty palace drama?

Xu Heyi raised his eyes slightly and spoke slowly: "Don't you want to live?"

Mrs. Xu was frightened when she saw Xu Heyi.

There are so many people in the Xu family, but she is only afraid of two of them.

One is the old man, who has accumulated power for many years and holds the power of the Xu family; the other is Xu Heyi, whose emotions are difficult to discern and whose depth is unpredictable.

Only Jiang Nuanzhu could say that Xu Heyi was a gentleman.

Mrs. Xu was strong on the outside but weak on the inside: "It's not that I don't want to live, it's obviously the old man who won't give me a way to live!"

Xiangshan is a ghost place with no one living there. There is only a Xu family temple that supports a few monks.

She is still young. Does she have to live like the old man, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures for the rest of her life?

This is even more terrifying than killing Mrs. Xu.

Xu Heyi nodded slightly and said calmly, "Then I'll give her a ride."

What? !

Everyone in the ward was shocked by Xu Heyi's words.

Everyone looked at Xu Heyi in amazement.

The bodyguard behind Xu Heyi walked forward expressionlessly, snatched the white silk from Mrs. Xu's hand, and wrapped it around her neck.

Madam Xu was terrified and struggled, "What are you going to do?!"

The bodyguard disliked her noise and dislocated Madam Xu's jaw, and replied coldly: "Give Madam a ride!"

Father Xu was so frightened that his legs went weak and he trembled, "Heyi, what do you want to do?! She's your stepmother!"

"We are now living in a society ruled by law. Do you still want to kill people?!"

While Father Xu was speaking, the white silk had already been twisted around Madam Xu's neck, causing her to roll her eyes and struggle, "Help... Help."

"I... don't want to... die."

She stretched out her hand and begged for mercy towards Xu Heyi.

After a moment, Xu Heyi raised his hand and the bodyguard immediately let go.

Madam Xu fell to the ground limply, trembling all over. "I, I don't want to die..."

From beginning to end, there was no emotion in Xu Heyi's eyes.

Seeing Madam Xu shouting that she didn't want to die, his voice was slightly cold, sounding gentle and elegant.

"Next time you need help, I will definitely satisfy you."

After saying this coldly, Xu Heyi returned to the old man's ward.

He was afraid that the noise here would wake up Mr. and Mrs. Xu.

After Xu Heyi left, Mrs. Xu fell to the ground, gasping for breath, looking like she had escaped death.

In the past, Mrs. Xu always liked to use the trick of committing suicide to control Xu's father and suppress the Xu family.

But she never really wanted to die.

Tonight, she truly tasted the taste of death.

Just a little bit more and she would really meet the King of Hell!

Xu Heyi is so scary!

When Jiang Nuanzhu woke up the next day, he found himself sleeping on a hospital bed.

It was probably Xu Heyi who carried her in.

Just as Jiang Nuanzhu was about to move to sit on the wheelchair, the door was opened.

Xu Heyi pushed the door open and came in, carrying Mrs. Xu familiarly and placing her on the wheelchair.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Jiang Nuanzhu nodded, carefully looked at Xu Heyi's eyebrows, and asked with concern: "Did you not sleep all night last night?"

Xu Heyi stepped forward and pushed Jiang Nuanzhu out: "The bathroom is ready, go wash up first."

He avoided answering, but Jiang Nuanzhu already had the answer in her heart.

Jiang Nuanzhu couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"How's Grandpa?"

"The doctor checked it this morning and there's nothing serious."

"Then you should take care of yourself too."

"I'll listen to Mrs. Xu." Xu Heyi responded quietly.

After washing up, a sumptuous breakfast was already on the table.

Jiang Nuanzhu stirred the vegetable and scallop porridge in the bowl with a spoon. "Did something happen last night?"

Jiang Nuanzhu slept in a daze last night.

When I woke up in the morning and thought about it, I guessed that something big must have happened last night.

Xu Heyi: "My stepmother was threatening suicide last night."

Jiang Nuanzhu paused, surprised, "Suicide? Is he okay?"

"Don't worry, she's not dead." Xu Heyi comforted her in a deep voice: "She usually uses this move a few times every year, and everyone is used to it."

"Oh." Jiang Nuanzhu nodded obediently.

She took a spoonful of porridge and handed it to Xu Heyi, saying softly, "Mr. Xu, open your mouth!"

"Um."

The indifference in Xu Heyi's eyes disappeared, and warmth filled the air. He slowly opened his mouth.

Seeing Xu Heyi eating obediently, Jiang Nuanzhu asked with a smile: "Is it delicious?"

"tasty."

How could the porridge fed by Mrs. Xu herself not taste good?

Jiang Nuanzhu was recognized, and the smile on her face became brighter. She continued to feed Xu Heyi.

Mr. Xu was completely unable to refuse Mrs. Xu's smile and expectant eyes, so he could only eat it bite by bite.

Even if the porridge was poisoned, Xu Heyi would probably eat it with a smile.
