Her eyes were pleading for help.
“Mother Lei, I have something to tell you.”
!!
Father Lei and Yan beiming, who were arguing whether the goose eggs should be steamed or fried, did not notice the women’s thoughts at all. By the time the two of them finished arguing, they had already gone upstairs.
In the bedroom on the second floor.
Mother Lei did not say a word, as if she was mulling over how to start.
Lin Hanxing wasn’t in a hurry. He just stuffed the mug that he had brought up from downstairs into the cold hands of Madam Lei.
The warmth of the cup calmed her down.
“Just now, my stepmother called me.”
Lin Hanxing’s expression did not change, but his eyes turned cold.
Mrs. Zhong?
Now that she couldn’t even take care of herself, what storm could she set off?
&Quot; she threatened me. She told me to make ah Xiao withdraw from the Jiangcheng Bay Bridge project, or she’ll expose something! &Quot;
Mother Lei raised her head and looked at Lin Hanxing with a heavy gaze.
“This matter is related to ah Xiao …”
Lin Hanxing quietly listened to mother Lei.
40 minutes passed …
The more she heard, the colder her beautiful eyes became, and even gradually condensed into a Blizzard-like chill.
And behind that chill, there was even more heartache.
His heartache for the Thunder valiant beast!
“Daughter-in-law, I don’t want to compromise with her, but if this matter is exposed …”
Mother Lei sighed with a grave expression, her eyes pleading.
“You’re the only one I can ask for help from.”
Lin Hanxing’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, hiding the complicated emotions in his eyes.
&Quot; Madam Lei, don’t worry. Ah Xiao never really wanted to participate in the Jiangcheng sea bridge project. You can call Mrs. Zhong back later to tell her that you’ve agreed to this. &Quot;
Lin Hanxing’s voice was cold and dangerous as he spoke.
“But a compromise will only make them push their luck.”
That was exactly what Mama Lei was worried about!
“Mother Lei, trust me, let me handle this!”
Ah Xiao must not know about this. She would not let him get hurt again.
It seemed that he had to make some changes to his previous plan.
How dare they have designs on the Lei family …
Hehe.
………………
Midnight.
When Lei Xiao returned to the bedroom, the lights were already off.
The window curtains swayed gently in the night breeze, and at the same time, a faint scent of Cape Jasmine could be smelled.
Under the light of the wall lamp, Lin Hanxing, who had half his face buried in the pillow, was sleeping quietly.
Lei Xiao walked to the bedside, a bottle of medicinal wine in his hand.
He looked down at the woman who was curled up like a kitten. His cold face was replaced by a bone-deep gentleness, and even his eyes were filled with unspeakable affection.
She was wearing a black nightgown, which was designed to look fresh and girly.
It made her ivory white skin look even more translucent.
It was also because of this that the bruises on his wrists were even clearer.
Lei Xiao carefully lifted her wrist and brought it to his thin lips to kiss her.
“I’m sorry …”
He sat by the bed, his voice low and magnetic.
She reached out and pushed Lin Hanxing’s hair behind her ear.
Looking at that fair little face, Lei Xiao’s eyes were as focused as he could be.
He poured the medicinal wine on Lin Hanxing’s wrist and gently pushed it with his fingertips. He did not dare to use too much strength and let the medicinal wine seep in again and again. He was silent and serious.
“Don’t be afraid of me because of this.”
Perhaps, he would only dare to say these words after Lin Hanxing had fallen asleep.
“I’m just afraid that you’ll leave me.”
Lei Xiao held her wrist and once again applied the medicine to remove bruises.
It was not until the room was filled with the smell of medicinal ointment that he seemed to be at ease.
He looked at Lin Hanxing’s small face and sighed.
