Chapter 857 Regret
"Is she here?"
“No.”
"Impossible! She must be here! She wouldn't be anywhere else except here!"
Xie Fei still has some intelligence.
If he were standing in the Fu family's house or yard now, he might still believe Lu Miao's words.
But Lu Miao stopped him from going in, which meant there was something wrong.
Not to mention Lu Miao's expression when he looked at him, which was as if he was disgusted to the extreme.
He couldn't open his eyes due to the rain, so he wiped his face, exhaled hot breaths, and tried to open his eyes to look at Lu Miao and make a promise:
"I didn't handle this matter well. I swear I won't do it again. I won't let her suffer again! That's why she had a miscarriage..."
Xie Fei stepped onto the stairs, intending to squeeze past the couple and into the yard, but he overestimated his physical fitness after running all afternoon.
His limbs were numb and stiff with cold, and his legs felt as tired as if they were filled with lead.
The moment he raised his foot, he was tripped by the stairs with a "bang". He fell hard and skillfully.
His knees just touched the ground and he knelt in front of Lu Miao.
He looked as miserable as a drowned ghost.
Thinking of the miserable state that Gu Ying had come to him in the rain, Lu Miao felt happy to see him like this.
I didn't want to pay any attention to him, and even wanted to ridicule him and ask him what he had been doing that morning.
The one who was hurt was Gu Ying, so what was the point of him making a promise to her?
But this kneeling directly disrupted Lu Miao's composure and scared him badly.
Lu Miao was knocked towards the door by Xie Fei, and the umbrella in Fu Jingyou's hand tilted to the side. He quickly supported her arm and pulled her back.
The moment she stood firm, she bent down anxiously to help Xie Fei who was lying on the ground:
"What are you doing? Get up!"
The couple looked exactly alike, as if they had just come out of an ice cellar, their skin so cold that the hairs of anyone who touched it stood up.
Lu Miao frowned, his expression showing a bit of worry and nervousness:
"Get up!"
Xie Fei is a truly pampered young master.
After running around for an entire afternoon, I have exhausted my physical strength to the extreme.
His body was as soft as mud and he couldn't stand up at all.
Xie Fei's hands were shaking uncontrollably as he grabbed Lu Miao's wrists. His eyes were red and drops of water, whether rain or tears, rolled down his face.
As if he didn't want others to see him so incompetent and useless, he lowered his head and pleaded in a trembling voice:
"How is she now...please let me see her, um——"
Even though he tried hard to swallow the sob in his throat, Xie Fei still had a tearful tone in his voice.
As if he knew he couldn't hide it, he simply stopped hiding it. He raised his head with a messy and tearful face, and pulled Lu Miao to cry and beg:
"I beg you, Lu Miao!"
If I fell down and knelt down just now, it was just a coincidence.
At this moment, Xie Fei knelt willingly and helplessly.
He knelt to express his repentance for the entire incident.
It was his fault for not handling the situation properly. If he had been tougher, this wouldn't have happened.
He was the one who let Gu Ying down!
He failed to protect her!
It's his fault!
Xie Fei held Lu Miao tightly:
"Lu Miao, I beg you!"
“…”
Lu Miao opened and closed his lips, then pursed them.
She had never seen Xie Fei so embarrassed and out of control.
It has come to this point, it is impossible not to be moved.
She staggered and took the umbrella from Fu Jingyou's hand.
Fu Jingyou understood, lowered his body, and put his shoulder under Xie Fei's armpit, and lifted up Lu Miao, who had been unable to help him, from the ground in one fell swoop.
Fu Jingyou carried Xie Fei and walked in front.
Lu Miao locked the gate and ran behind them, stumbling and holding an umbrella for them.
