Chapter 31: Turning the Tide

“I finally have a home.”

Ye Xing thought to herself. Was this her mother’s embrace?

But why couldn’t she see her face clearly?

She could only rely on her instincts to hug her tightly, and then she saw a fire.

A very, very big fire.

She saw a man and a woman throw her out of the room’s window.

She still could not see their faces clearly.

She only heard the woman’s voice, filled with longing and reluctance.

She said, “Ye Xing, you must live well. You are Mom and Dad’s most precious star. You must live happily.”

The fire engulfed the two people’s figures, it seemed as though she could still hear the endless longing in her ears.

“Daddy… Mommy…”

Ye Xing murmured and tried to jump into the fire crazily.

However, there was a pair of strong hands behind her, hugging her tightly.

Her line of sight was getting farther and farther away from the fire.

“Daddy… Mommy…”

Ye Xing shouted crazily, and her body felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

“Let me go, let me go!”

He Yang, who was struggling to move forward, heard Ye Xing’s movement and a smile appeared on his face. However, he quickly frowned.

Ye Xing did give him some response, but she tightened her arms around his neck as she yelled at someone to let go of her.

The sudden strength made it hard for him to breathe. He stumbled, and the two of them fell into the rain.

He Yang used all his strength to protect her in his arms. His back fell heavily to the ground, and he saw stars in his eyes.

The fall seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

After the fall, Ye Xing seemed to have regained some consciousness. She cried and opened her eyes, but what she saw was an anxious face.

He Yang’s nose was hit by Ye Xing at one point, it was extremely sore, and he even felt blood spurting out of it.

“He… He Yang, are you okay?”

Ye Xing suddenly thought of the current situation and struggled to get up from He Yang’s arms. However, just as she lifted her body, she fell down on He Yang’s chest again.

He Yang gritted his teeth. “If you don’t move around, I think I’ll be better.”

He thought to himself that he really had eight lifetimes of bad luck.

“I… I’m sorry. I… I didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t have any strength left.”

Ye Xing was on the verge of tears. With the light from the street lamp, she could clearly see He Yang’s nosebleed being diluted by the rain.

“I’ll remember this debt. Remember, you owe me a huge favour.”

Ye Xing was stunned. How could this be? Shouldn’t he have said it was fine?

This boy really knew how to hold a grudge.

However, at this moment, she felt a warmth in her heart.

“Okay, I’ll definitely return it to you in the future.”

He Yang rolled his eyes. “Speaking of which, get off me first. Have you seen the watch on my wrist? It has a call function. My watch is waterproof. You should remember Mother Chen’s number, right? Call her and tell her to come pick us up.”

“Oh, Oh… okay. But… but I don’t know how to use it.”

Ye Xing was so anxious that she was about to cry, He Yang was also on the verge of tears. After the fall just now, his head had been knocked, and now he only felt that his eyelids were very heavy.

The cold instantly engulfed him, and he could not help but shiver.

“How can you be so stupid! Is your brain used to wash pots?”

He Yang roared angrily, but he had no choice but to be patient. He quickly explained the method of use.

Thankfully, Ye Xing was not that stupid. The call was quickly picked up.

He Yang heard Mother Chen’s voice and was completely relieved. He closed his eyes and felt the world spin around him..
