The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife - Chapter 242
Chapter 242: Chapter 242: What are you running away from…_1
A vague image flashed through her mind!
It was a scene she saw when she was being pulled out of the water.
Hai Xiaotang was taken aback. How could she suddenly have such an image in her head?!
Was she imagining it, or was it something she saw before she died in her previous life?
If it was what she saw before she died… Hai Xiaotang didn’t know how to feel.
However, the image is too blurry; she can’t be sure whether it’s real or fake.
Dongfang Yu returned, and Zhan’s mother tactfully left.
The man walked to her bedside. She was still dazed.
“What are you thinking?” he sits down and asks her in low voice.
Hai Xiaotang snapped back to reality, “1 heard you saved me, thank you!”
Dongfang Yu’s eyes were deep, “This is the second time I’ve saved your life!”
Hai Xiaotang was startled, “Yes, thank you very much…”
Her words suddenly stopped, as Dongfang Yu forcefully pulled her closer. She fell abruptly into his firm embrace!
The man held her tightly, touching the back of her head. His voice was filled with fear, “Hai Xiaotang, if you want to repay me for saving your life, promise me not to let anything happen to you again, promise not to scare me like that, do you hear me?!
Hai Xiaotang’s eyelashes flickered.
Upon hearing ‘repay for saving your life’, she thought he would ask her to devote herself to him…
She nodded mildly, then said lightly, “Don’t worry. I value my life more than anyone else. Unless it’s an accident, I won’t let anything happen.”
Dongfang Yu thought of someone trying to kill her and a stream of darkness passed through his eyes.
“There will be no accidents in the future!” he declared sternly, not sure if he was saying it for her or to convince himself.
However, Hai Xiaotang felt uncomfortable and moved a bit, “Could you let go of me? My back is itchy…”
Dongfang Yu:”…”
Being young, Hai Xiaotang’s body was recovering quickly after waking up.
Dongfang Yu no longer had to stay with her all day, but he would always come after work!
Hai Xiaotang couldn’t stop him, so she let him do it.
Although she acted the same towards him as before, she was very aware of the subtle change in her heart.
Other than on the first day she woke up, her grandfather, and nanny Zhan encourging her to reconcile with Dongfang Yu, they haven’t said anything else.
Dongfang Yu himself doesn’t push her either, he just naturally shows his concern, regardless of whether she wants to accept it or not.
Hai Xiaotang pretended to be ignorant and carried on her normal routine.
However, she was keenly aware that she was deliberately avoiding something…
Next thing you know, Hai Xiaotang was discharged from the hospital.
During this period, having dodged death twice, the Hai Family decided to throw a big celebration!
Dongfang Yu personally took Hai Xiaotang home.
Just as he stepped out of the car, firecrackers suddenly burst forth in celebration, set off by a cheerful servant hanging them on the front gate.
Hai Xiaotang got a startle!
She covered her ears and looked up to see her grandfather, uncle, and aunt’s smiling faces, and…
…a young, beautiful girl she didn’t recognize!
Hai Xiaotang paused, who was she?
The firecrackers finally finished, and a joyful nanny Zhan reminded her, “Xiaotang, hurry up and walk over the brazier to drive off the bad luck!”
At the gate, a brazier filled with burning wormwood was still lit.
Although Hai Xiaotang wasn’t superstitious, she happily stepped over it.
“After driving off the ill-fortune, our Xiaotang will have good luck and happiness!” Nanny Zhan cheerfully said.
Hai Xiaotang suddenly felt a bit awkward. Auntie was really enthusiastic toward her today.
