Unhappy
Xiao Qi was charged with framing Yue Lanxiu and murdering Yue Lanhui. He was temporarily detained in a local detention center, and Xu Rongxuan was temporarily in charge of his case.
Xiao Qi never imagined that he had taken the wrong USB drive. When Xu Rongxuan played the video of how he planned to frame others, he was completely stunned! He was speechless. But he had something to say about the murder charge. He would never be a scapegoat!
Xu Rongxuan knew that Yue Lanhui was not killed by him, but as a police officer, he broke the law knowingly, did not report it, and did not help the dying person. He could not escape the blame! He deserved this retribution!
Xiao Qi revealed that Yue Lanhui was killed in revenge by someone above!
Xiao Qi recalled, "At the end of last month, after I witnessed Yue Lanxiu and Zhuang Youya rekindling their old relationship, I became very depressed and unstable. This was the main reason why I lost control of my emotions and committed immoral acts!"
"You're committing a crime!" Xu Rongxuan had to correct him, not allowing him to shirk even a little responsibility. "The main reason is ultimately your own misconduct!"
Xiao Qi had no way to argue. "That night I went to the bar and drank a lot of wine. I was alone at first, but not long after, Guan Shaoling came and sat next to me uninvited. I didn't know him well, so we didn't have much to talk about until he mentioned Yue Lanxiu. He said he hated Yue Lanxiu too and wished Yue Lanxiu would die! So we talked about how to make Yue Lanxiu die. No!" Realizing that he had chosen an inappropriate word, he immediately changed his words, "It's about how much I hate talking about this topic." He paused here again. He originally wanted to say that the conversation was very speculative and cheerful, but he felt that was inappropriate and changed his words, "We talked for a long time and didn't leave the bar until late at night."
Xu Rongxuan's eyes looked as if they wanted to punch a hole in him. There was no doubt that they were discussing how to kill Yue Lanxiu! They had become good friends, right? It would be unreasonable not to spend time in jail together!
"I didn't expect that as soon as I walked out of the bar, I was surrounded by a group of gangsters and forcibly taken to their car! Those people came for Guan, and I was unlucky to be implicated! They threatened Guan to tell them where Yue Lanhui was hiding, and it was only then that I found out that Yue Lanhui was not dead! Guan refused to say anything at first, because the situation at the time was that if you don't say it, you will die, and if you say it, you will most likely be silenced!" Xiao Qi said while thinking about how to organize his words.
"You'll die if you tell, and you'll die if you don't tell. Then why aren't you dead?" Xu Rongxuan gritted his teeth and urged him to answer quickly, not giving him time to make excuses and shirk responsibility.
"Guan Shaoling is really smart. He said he could tell them where Yue Lanhui is hiding, but there's a condition: if a knife is needed, they must use his knife!"
"His knife? Do you mean the knife that has Yue Lanxiu's fingerprints?" Xu Rongxuan wondered how much dark matter was in this person's head to have such a bad idea!
"Although he has become an accomplice by doing this, that group no longer has to silence him. He can even use them to get rid of Yue Lanxiu!"
"Stop calling him his all the time. Isn't it you guys? Don't you want to get rid of Yue Lanxiu?" As long as Xu Rongxuan is around, this guy can't get away with it completely!
"I just want to say that this idea really wasn't mine!" He just thought it was a great idea! It was definitely a good opportunity to get rid of Yue Lanxiu!
"It wasn't your idea? But you agree with it, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have cooperated so well and put it into action!"
"I admit that I was drunk and confused, and I was frustrated in love, so I made this mistake! But I am definitely not cooperating as you said. They are very scary. I actually regret it and I am hesitant, but I really don't dare to offend them, so I did this under their coercion!" Xiao Qi said very aggrieved.
Xu Rongxuan was furious after hearing this. This guy almost put all the blame on □□ and Guan Shaoling, making him feel like he had no choice. "Do Guan and those □□ elements know how good you are at shirking responsibility?"
"Now I'm accused of murder, and I'm the one taking the blame, okay?"
"I have to find those terrorism elements to prove what you said is true, so do you know how I can find them?"
Xiao Qi wasn't afraid, because what he said was true. It would be best if Xu Rongxuan could quickly catch those murderers! "Their leader is called Gost. He said so himself, and everyone in the world knows him! Guan Shaoling has also investigated him, and he does have some strength..."
Based on the information provided by Xiao Qi, Xu Rongxuan quickly found the group of people, but they were just a mob. What strength did they have? It was just a small one!
The guy named Goust has been missing for a while. According to people who used to hang out with him, he ran away because he killed someone, but no one knows where he went!
Xu Rongxuan also received news that Goust and Yue Lanhui had no grudges against each other at all, and he was bribed by a policeman to kill people. The policeman's name was Xiao Mingqi!
When Xu Rongxuan told Xiao Qi what he had investigated, his face turned pale and he was stunned again!
"So who sold you out anyway?" Xu Rongxuan had no sympathy for him. "Ultimately, you brought this upon yourself! You'll suffer the consequences of your own actions!"
It took Xiao Qi a long time to come back to his senses and he shouted that he wanted to see Guan Shaoling.
"Guan Shaoling is abroad now and it is difficult to contact him. Maybe we can contact him after you are executed!" Xu Rongxuan implied that Guan Shaoling should hide as far away as possible.
"I've been wronged! You must find that fellow Guan Shaoling!" Xiao Qi shouted anxiously. A gleam of light suddenly flashed in his panicked and frightened eyes. He added, "I want to see my father-in-law! Right now!"
"Your father-in-law? If he wanted to see you, he would have come a long time ago. Not to mention how much stigma you've brought upon him by breaking the law, do you think he'd still come to see you after you beat his daughter like that?"
"Don't worry about that!" Xiao Qi didn't rely on emotional support; he was going to play his trump card! Zhuang Yuling's unknown trump card! "Just help me convey that I know everything about him. If you don't want everyone in the world to know, then come see me!"
Xu Rongxuan raised his eyebrows in surprise. It seemed that Xiao Qi had a lot of leverage over Zhuang Yuling!
Upon learning that Yue Lanxiu had been released, a smile finally appeared on Zhao Rirou's face.
"Why don't you go find him?" Thyme saw through her thoughts and teased, "Are you waiting for him to come to you? Can you bear it? This is a bit inconsistent with your style that night!" Thyme was referring to the fact that they were trapped in an abandoned factory but still did not forget to be intimate.
"I can't bear it as much as you do!" Chao Rirou meant that Thyme obviously liked Xu Rongxuan, but she had not taken any action yet.
While she was still talking, she ran out the door! She really missed him! She wanted to see him, even if it was just from a distance! If she didn't see him today, she was afraid she would never have the chance again! Thinking of this, a cloud of worry came over her face again.
"Hey! Don't be too anxious. At least let him take a shower first. He must be covered in bacteria after coming out of prison!" Thyme reminded sincerely and kindly.
Before Asahiro ran out of the door, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at her.
A black car had been parked at the door for a long time. When the owner of the car saw Chao Rirou coming out of the gate, he immediately got out of the car with a smile on his face.
When Zhao Rirou saw him, she couldn't force out a smile. The little light in her eyes gradually disappeared. "You don't have to come to pick me up in person. Since I promised you, I will never break my promise."
Yue Lanjing ignored the sadness in her eyes and said with a gentle smile, "So you went out just to find me? Then we really have a telepathic connection. You came out just as I arrived!"
Asahirou said nothing and let him entertain himself.
"Come on! I'll take you to a nice place!" He walked up to her and took her hand affectionately as they walked towards the car. She was powerless to refuse and had no interest in asking where they were going. What good place was there? Wherever they went, they would be in a cage.
Chao Rirou didn't expect him to bring her to the airport. She asked in surprise, "You want to take me abroad? But I don't have my passport!"
"Don't worry, Yatang's passport is with me." Yue Lanjing was very happy to see that her mood had finally changed. He was afraid of seeing her lifeless state.
Rest assured? How could she be rest assured? Her passport was under her control! Zhao Rirou couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
As long as she didn't treat him as air, even if she rolled her eyes, he would smile as if he had eaten honey.
Yue Lanxiu returned to this land, but she was about to leave. The reluctance and longing surged over her and almost swallowed her up. She almost wanted to beg Yue Lanjing to let her go!
But she felt that was impossible, and it would only make him hate Yue Lanxiu more and do even more outrageous things to Yue Lanxiu!
Is it okay to just leave without saying goodbye? She felt that after getting off the plane, she should at least tell Thyme that she was fine, so that they wouldn't think that something had happened to her and make random guesses or look for someone else.
What if they actually met? Was she telling him that she was going to Yue Lanjing? Even if she really wanted to kill her, she couldn't say such cruel words to him! Although he would find out sooner or later and would mistakenly think that she had chosen Yue Lanjing.
Should she tell him the truth? That she had only promised to be with Yue Lanjing for a year and asked him to wait for her? No! She couldn't be so selfish! Why did she think he would still want her?
When she thought that he would no longer want her, she would rather die!
What should she do? So she was so afraid of losing Yue Lanxiu! She was also afraid of facing Yue Lanjing. If he tried to get intimate with her, she'd instinctively reject him! But what would her resistance bring? She didn't want him to see Yue Lanxiu as a thorn in her side anymore! She didn't want them to become enemies because of her!
Yue Lanjing brought her to a place full of romance, as beautiful as a paradise on earth, with blue sea, white walls, and blue roofs. Everything here is either blue or white. Being in this pure space, one's mind seems to be purified, and all worries will be left behind!
Yue Lanjing had work to do, so she couldn't accompany her around, which was very much to her liking. She just wanted to be alone now.
Watching the clouds of worry on her face being blown away by the sea breeze, Yue Lanjing smiled with relief. He hoped that the environment here could heal her mood! He wanted to accompany her, but he knew that she didn't want to be with him right now. Just relax, and he wouldn't bother her!
He sent bodyguards to follow her, to protect her safety and not to disturb her!
"What! Didn't she come to find you?" Thyme looked at Yue Lanxiu who came to find Zhao Rirou in surprise.
"Did she come to see me? I didn't see her!" Yue Lanxiu was confused and then worried.
"Will he be waiting for you at your detective agency?" Thyme guessed.
"No way! I just came from the detective agency!"
"Will they come to the police station to look for you?"
"Impossible, I just came from the police station!" Xu Rongxuan, who had agreed with Yue Lanxiu to meet here, objected.
Did something happen?! The three of them looked at each other, this was their common feeling, and their faces suddenly became more anxious than the other.
Just then, a young nurse came over and overheard their conversation. She broke the tense atmosphere and said, "I saw that man named Yue Lanjing come to see her. They left in a car hand in hand. I didn't expect Yue Lanjing to be so infatuated that she sleeps by the gate every night. It seems she's finally moved!"
The three of them were stunned. Thyme and Xu Rongxuan came to their senses first. Thyme asked the young nurse to go out and do her work quickly and stop chattering here!
Xu Rongxuan looked at Yue Lanxiu worriedly. It wasn't surprising that Yue Lanjing was pestering Zhao Rirou; it was incomprehensible. The more concerning thing was why they were holding hands. It was hard not to wonder if they had reconciled.
"Really, why don't we just call her?" Thyme said, pulling her phone out of her pocket.
"That's right, don't think too much. It must be Yue Lanjing who forced her." Xu Rongxuan patted Yue Lanxiu's shoulder comfortingly.
Thyme signaled Xu Rongxuan to stop talking. With Zhao Rirou's personality, if she didn't want to, no one could force her! I believe Yue Lanxiu also understands this about her.
"I've called several times, but the call didn't go through. But if she's with Yue Lanjing, at least she'll be fine." Yue Lanxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but his eyes dimmed a little.
Thyme opened her cell phone and found that Asahirou had already sent her a text message, "I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry." It seemed that she knew they would look for her.
"You're right, she sent me a text message saying she's fine, so don't worry!" Thyme didn't show it to Yue Lanxiu, for fear that he would be sad!
She said she was fine, and was she fine with Yue Lanjing? If Yue Lanxiu saw it, he would definitely think so!
What was Xiaorou thinking? Why would she leave with Yue Lanjing at this critical moment?
"It's strange that we can be at ease! Everyone knows how much Chao Rirou liked Yue Lanjing before!" Xu Rongxuan and Thyme secretly communicated with their eyes.
"You probably haven't eaten yet at this time, right? Fill your stomachs first. After dinner, I have something important to tell you!" Thyme changed the subject.
"What's the important thing?"
"Let's talk after dinner."
"Okay." Xu Rongxuan and Thyme were talking back and forth, looking like a married couple, the kind where the husband listens to his wife obediently!
"I'll go heat up the food. Just wait a moment and you'll be able to eat soon." Thyme walked away to prepare the food.
Xu Rongxuan nodded, his eyes following her involuntarily until she disappeared from his sight.
Yue Lanxiu couldn't help but glance at Xu Rongxuan with envy, and said with a teasing smile, "The wife follows the husband's lead! You two are doing quite well!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Don't deny it. You were staring at me almost the entire time without blinking. It's obvious that your soul is attached to me!"
"I'm warning you not to talk nonsense anymore. I already have Hua'er, how could I have thoughts about other women?"
"Hua'er? Li Shuqing? Oh my god! You haven't broken up yet?!" Yue Lanxiu suddenly shouted. He had reminded her several times, but hadn't this guy noticed that Li Shuqing was often cheating on him at nightclubs? This guy was clearly not stupid, so why was he so clueless about this?
"Don't go too far! I'll beat you up!" Xu Rongxuan realized that he hadn't been with Li Shuqing for a long time. "I've been running around for you all this time, and it seems I've neglected her for a long time. Oh no! I have to make it up to her when I get back. Is there a flower shop nearby?"
"I don't know where the flower shop is, I only know where the nightclub is. I'll take you there later!" Looking for Li Shuqing, Yue Lanxiu can guarantee that Li Shuqing is definitely there! He can't let his friend be toyed with by her anymore!
He had caught her being intimate with another man once before, and he hoped that she would take the initiative to break up with Rong Xuan, but it seemed that the woman didn't say anything to Rong Xuan!
"Get out! I advise you to avoid places like that! Be careful that Chao Rirou doesn't want you!" Xu Rongxuan realized that the words were inappropriate after he had said them.
After a moment of silence, Yue Lanxiu suddenly spoke, "Do you think she doesn't want me anymore?" He could feel her love, but this love might not be as strong as the one she had for Yue Lanjing! He felt extremely lost and melancholy.
"Don't think too much, maybe she will come back after we finish eating!"
"It's time to eat." Thyme, who was standing at the door, didn't want to pour cold water on her when she heard this. Judging from the content of the text message sent by Asahirou, she would not be back at least in the short term.
During the meal, the two couldn't help but talk about Xiao Qi's case.
Yue Lanxiu and Xu Rongxuan agreed. Guan Shaoling had set up a trap for Xiao Qi from the start. All the talk of revenge and revenge was completely fake, all an act! Not only did Guan Shaoling use Xiao Qi as a pawn, he also made him a scapegoat, and when the truth came out, he pushed all the blame onto Xiao Qi!
"I have to say, this Guan Shaoling is really shrewd and calculating!"
"Maybe, the person who came up with the idea was Yue Lanjing!" Yue Lanxiu said slowly, remembering that Hua Chuyu had once reminded him to be careful of Yue Lanjing's character.
"But Guan Shaoling killed his father!"
This is also something that Yue Lanxiu can’t figure out.
After dinner, Thyme told them that Xu Rongxuan's mother had been poisoned in the same way as Ivan! She felt that such an important matter could not be hidden from Xu Rongxuan.
"What did you say! My mother was poisoned?!" Xu Rongxuan stood up from the sofa in fright.
"Calm down. Auntie is fine now. Nothing's wrong at all! The amount of poison detected in her body won't cause her any harm! But I'm wondering if Auntie's inexplicable loss of part of her memory is related to this poison?"
"You mean my mother doesn't have Alzheimer's disease, but is poisoned?" Xu Rongxuan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
"If it's Alzheimer's, how could he only forget Asahirou's mother?" Thyme realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly corrected herself, "What about Huaer's mother?"
Xu Rongxuan, who was still immersed in shock, didn't notice it, but Yue Lanxiu noticed the part she was eager to hide and didn't rush to ask her.
"I also find this strange, but I didn't think much about it. I always thought that the death of Hua'er's mother caused a certain blow to my mother, causing her to suffer from selective amnesia." Xu Rongxuan sat down slowly again.
"What you said is very possible, but people with this disease often experience depression, anxiety, helplessness, and so on. But my aunt gives people the impression of being a very cheerful person! In less than a day since she came to my clinic, do you know how many patients she has enlightened?"
"Well, my mother is indeed nosy. She didn't cause you any trouble, did she?" Xu Rongxuan apologized.
"My aunt is a kind-hearted person. How could she cause me trouble? If she doesn't do a good job of helping patients psychologically, I doubt she has ever studied psychology!"
"It seems that your mother and she are very suitable to be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!" Yue Lanxiu whispered secretly in Xu Rongxuan's ear.
"Go away!" They were talking about such a serious matter and he was still being so frivolous.
"What are you mumbling about?"
"Nothing!"
"Why did Auntie get the same poison as Ivan?" Yue Lanxiu had investigated all of Luosha's disciples, so he knew Ivan. "How did you know Ivan was also poisoned? Is he receiving treatment here?"
"Yes, he's being treated here." Thyme thought for a moment and then continued, "To be honest, I was the one who poisoned him. Where did the poison come from? It's the same one Luosha gave to Chao Rirou to poison you! But Chao Rirou couldn't bear to use it on you. Instead, she gave it to me and asked me to research what kind of poison it was. She even sent a little white mouse named Ivan!"
"How can you use innocent people for experiments?" Xu Rongxuan said in shock, his thick eyebrows furrowed in disapproval. Although he didn't like Ivan, how could he harm someone's life?
Although Yue Lanxiu knew that Ivan was not innocent, he did not approve of doing this. It was not worth breaking the law for that kind of person!
"Are you going to arrest me? But before that, please let me finish what I'm saying, okay?" Thyme looked at him coldly and said, "If you knew he was Luosha's apprentice, that he was a perpetrator of all kinds of evil and constantly harmed those around you, would you still think he was innocent?"
"But this can't be a reason for you to break the law! No matter how heinous his crimes are, the case should be decided by the law! If you break the law, you will be punished by the law! Do you understand what I am saying?" He didn't want her to get hurt!
"I don't understand things like law, which are played by high-level people. I only know that if someone bullies us, we will pay them back a hundredfold or a thousandfold!" Thyme's tone became sharp.
"What's the difference between you and them?" Seeing that she also had such a stubborn side, Xu Rongxuan's concern instantly turned into anger.
"If you like preaching so much, go find Ivan!" The anger in Thyme's eyes was no less than Xu Rongxuan's.
"He's none of my business! You're an important person to me, and I'm telling you this because I care about you!" Xu Rongxuan was so angry that he lost his mind and shouted out his true feelings that he himself was not even aware of.
He was also shocked when he heard his own words.
Thyme was stunned, her face getting redder and redder, but just now it was out of anger, but now it was out of shyness.
Yue Lanxiu looked at them with an expression of disbelief. What the hell! The two of them were frying chili peppers, making the whole space choke with gas, and in the end, they made a candy?
Thyme's expression was as if she had eaten a piece of extremely sweet candy.
"Let's get back to the point!" Having been heartbroken, he wasn't in the mood to watch their sweet moments. "What was Ivan's reaction to taking the poison? Did he lose his memory?"
“No!”
"Doesn't that mean my mother's amnesia has nothing to do with these poisons?" Because of his previous loss of composure, Xu Rongxuan didn't dare to look at Thyme, and only looked at Yue Lanxiu.
"Listen to me. I originally thought so, but after two days of research, I've made a new discovery. These poisons have ingredients that can cause disorientation and weakening of consciousness! I've also seen these ingredients in other more well-known drugs. Some people have used them to assist in hypnosis, with very good results!"
"You mean my mother was most likely hypnotized?" Xu Rongxuan was terrified. He couldn't imagine that his mother had encountered such a terrible thing and he didn't notice it at all.
"I'm not sure yet." Thyme cast her gaze on Yue Lanxiu. Asahirou said that he could hypnotize.
Receiving her gaze, Yue Lanxiu guessed what she wanted to say, "Do you want me to try hypnotizing Ivan?"
Thyme smiled and nodded, she had to admire his mind reading ability, "I also hope you can hypnotize your aunt, of course this requires your consent." When she said the word "you", she turned to look at Xu Rongxuan.
Xu Rongxuan glanced back at her quickly, then looked at Yue Lanxiu and said, "I have no objection. If you want to know who poisoned my mother, hypnosis is a feasible method."
"Just look at people when you're talking to them. Why are you looking at me?" Yue Lanxiu teased.
Xu Rongxuan glared and bared his teeth and said, "I want to tell you that I trust you very much! I'm confident in you hypnotizing me!" This guy has to bring up something that is not related to the topic!
Suddenly, his cell phone rang. Xu Rongxuan took it out and saw that it was Zhuang Youya calling. He immediately understood the purpose of her call. She must be asking about Xiu. It was all his fault for being negligent and forgetting to let her know that he was safe.
"It must be Youya who called to care about you. Do you want to tell her yourself?" Xu Rongxuan had not yet told Yue Lanxiu that Zhuang Youya sacrificed a lot to save him.
"Of course she called you because she has something to talk to you about. Why should I answer the phone?" Yue Lanxiu told him to stop hesitating and answer the phone quickly.
Xu Rongxuan pressed the answer button, and as soon as the call was connected, Zhuang Youya's anxious voice came, "What's going on? Has Xiu come out yet?"
"Don't worry, he's fine now!" Xu Rongxuan looked at Yue Lanxiudao, his eyes seemed to say, see, it really is all about you! "How about you, how is your injury? Is it serious?"
Yue Lanxiu ignored Xu Rongxuan's gaze at first, but after hearing the following words, she couldn't help but look sideways. Was she elegant and hurt?
"That's great, at least he's okay! I'm fine now." In fact, her injuries were still very serious, but the huge stone blocking her heart was gone, and she recovered a lot in an instant.
"That's good. You take good care of yourself. I," Xu Rongxuan suddenly changed his tone, "will come to see you as soon as we have time!"
"Yeah." Thinking that Yue Lanxiu would come to see her, she responded softly. Although it was brief, it was full of affection!
Seeing Xu Rongxuan hang up the phone, Yue Lanxiu frowned and asked, "Is she injured again?"
Xu Rongxuan nodded heavily, "And it's for you!"
"For me?" Yue Lanxiu asked in surprise, then realized, "Xiao Qi is causing trouble for her again because of me?"
"According to my speculation, she returned to Xiao Qi for you. Although I don't know how she came to believe that Xiao Qi was involved in your case, she returned to Xiao Qi to find evidence of his crime to overturn your case! She actually did it, and Xiao Qi discovered her true purpose, so he beat her up severely! Afterwards, Xiao Qi took away what he thought was evidence, but he didn't expect retribution to come so quickly. He actually took the wrong one! That's why you were able to be released!" Xu Rongxuan added, "It's all thanks to Youya!"
Yue Lanxiu felt heartbroken!
"Why are you telling me now!" He stood up and said, unable to sit still.
"I forgot about it because I was busy. It's not too late to tell you now!" Xu Rongxuan knew that he was in a hurry to see Zhuang Youya, so he stood up as well. The two of them walked out in tacit understanding.
"Hey!" Thyme looked puzzled, "Are you guys leaving?"
Xu Rongxuan stopped and turned back to explain, "Yes! I suddenly remembered something I must do right away! Please arrange the hypnosis! Thank you for everything you have done for my mother!"
Seeing his eyes full of trust in her, Thyme smiled with relief, but she was still concerned about one thing and asked, "Who is Youya? Yue Lanxiu seems to care about her a lot!"
"She is his first love. She sacrificed a lot to save him this time and was even injured and hospitalized. We are rushing to see her now!" Xu Rongxuan said concisely.
Thyme nodded and stopped stopping their hurried steps.
"The two of them were doing fine, so why does an ex appear next to them?" Thyme muttered, having a bad feeling in her heart. Could it be that Asahirou and Yue Lanxiu were not destined to be together in the end?
Xu Rongxuan had originally planned to go with Yue Lanxiu to see Zhuang Youya, but after thinking about her obvious intentions, he decided not to go. Youya must have only wanted to see Xiu, and if he went, he would just be an eyesore.
So in the end, Yue Lanxiu went to the hospital alone.
It was late, and she was probably asleep. Yue Lanxiu didn't want to disturb her, so he just wanted to take a look. He felt really bad inside! He didn't know what he could do for her!
When I arrived at the door of the ward, I saw through the small window on the door that she was lying quietly on the bed with no one by her side. The pity in my heart overflowed even more.
He gently opened the door and walked in with heavy steps, wanting to cover her with the quilt, but she suddenly trembled and murmured in fear, "Don't hit me... Don't come over!"
He thought she was having a nightmare, and must have dreamed of Xiao Qi! Xiao Qi's brutal behavior must have left an indelible scar in her heart! What could he do to heal the wound in her heart? He felt that he had an unshirkable responsibility! All of this happened to her because of him!
"Don't hurt Xiu... I won't allow you to hurt him!"
Listening to her talking in her sleep, Yue Lanxiu felt mixed emotions.
She was so stupid! What was so good about him that she would do so much for him? When did she develop feelings for him again? Or had she never forgotten him? He didn't dare to think about it anymore. He knew how to repay such feelings, but he couldn't do it! He was such a bastard!
"Don't—" Zhuang Youya suddenly woke up! She sat up from the bed, sweat dripping down her forehead.
"Did you have a nightmare? Don't be afraid, it's just a dream!" Yue Lanxiu walked to her side and comforted her.
"Xiu?" Zhuang Youya stared with sleepy eyes, obviously not able to tell whether it was a dream or reality. But the moment she saw Yue Lan Xiu, she could no longer control her emotions, threw herself on him and hugged him tightly!
"That's great! You finally came back to me! I can finally hug you again! I missed you so much, please don't leave me again, okay? I was wrong before, can you give me another chance? Let's start over! I found that I haven't forgotten you for a moment, and I still love you so much!" All her emotions poured out, and she cried like rain, her crying was heartbreaking!
Yue Lanxiu was overwhelmed with grief after hearing this and coaxed her softly, "Youya, lie down first and don't get excited. You are still injured." Every time he saw a wound on her body, his heart felt like it was being punched.
"No! I never want to let you go again!" Zhuang Youya thought she was in a dream. It was a rare dream like this, so she had to be unrestrained no matter what.
Yue Lanxiu let her hold him in his arms, not knowing how to respond to her affection.
Her posture would cause the wound on her body to hurt, and soon she felt pain. Why did it hurt even in a dream? She realized that this might not be a dream!
She uncomfortably let go of his hand, too shy to look at Yue Lanxiu. "Sorry! I thought I was dreaming. I shouldn't have done this to you!" She, always a well-behaved woman, felt so ashamed she wanted to crawl under the bed. Oh no! What would he think of her?!
"Do you want me to feel guilty to death? You should treat me like a slave, and I will do whatever you say!" He whispered softly. Except for one thing, there was nothing he could do!
"Why should I treat you like a slave? Do you think that I got hurt because of you? Don't think so! I ended up like this because I met the wrong person and didn't know him well! All my scars were caused by Xiao Qi! Don't take his fault on yourself! Instead, it was me who implicated you. If Xiao Qi hadn't misunderstood that I was with you, he wouldn't have targeted you everywhere and even wanted to kill you!" Zhuang Youya felt that it was all her fault.
Her kindness distressed Yue Lanxiu, "You also said that it was Xiao Qi's own problem. He had evil intentions and went astray, so don't blame yourself for his mistakes!"
Zhuang Youya nodded, a long-lost smile on her face. "Don't feel guilty or uneasy about me anymore! I don't need any of that!" What she needed was his love! Although she didn't say this out loud, it was reflected in her every move.
She looked extremely beautiful with her brows lowered and shy, but Yue Lanxiu felt extremely embarrassed when he saw her.
She seemed to be waiting for him to say something. If it were any other man, facing such a beautiful woman who was deeply in love with him, he would have confessed his feelings long ago, but Yue Lanxiu couldn't do it! Not to mention that his heart was already occupied by Zhao Rirou, even without Zhao Rirou, it would have been impossible for him and her!
"You need to rest first! Get a good night's sleep! That will help your wounds heal. It's already very late, I shouldn't have disturbed you."
Zhuang Youya said with great disappointment, "Are you leaving?" She hoped he could stay with her.
