Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Wanwan felt a burning heat coming from her waist. She could not help but shiver and looked at the man with eyes in confusion.
Why did he come to the hospital all of a sudden?
Li Jingran lowered his eyes and met the girl’s eyes. He said in a low voice, “Just a few days of not coming home, and you don’t feel like you’re a member of the Li family anymore?”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips, thinking of all her previous efforts to leave the Li family. Not wanting to give up halfway, she subconsciously wanted to push the man away.
She used a bit more force this time, but she could not push the man away, and his palm even strengthened its grip, holding held her waist tightly.
Xu Wanwan let out a soft cry in pain, and her eyebrows unconsciously furrowed.
Being able to hold the girl back in his arms, Li Jing’s expression softened a lot. His voice was inexplicably gentle. “Don’t move, I’m not here to take you back.”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and looked down at his tightly clenched hands. “Then what are you doing?”
“Lheard that someone wants to bully you again.” Li Jingran’s tone suddenly turned cold. He looked at the Xu family unkindly and said meaningfully, “I’m here to support you.”
Xu Zhongyi frowned. “Director Li, we didn’t make things difficult for Xu Wanwan this time. We just asked her to plead with the young master of the Zhao family.”
“Yeah, as long as she does it obediently, we’re willing to give her five million yuan,” Sun Yuelan quickly echoed, “She grew up in the countryside, so she has never seen that much money. She has such a good opportunity this time, so there’s no reason for her not to fight for it.”
Li Jingran’s thin lips curled into a sarcastic smile. “In order to save your son, you’re willing to give Wanwan to another man?”
He originally thought that this family was blind and mistook the pear! for a fish’s eye.
However, what they were doing now was no longer just a matter of being blind. It was a loss of their morals and conscience. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have done such a heartless thing.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”Xu Zhongyi explained in a panic. “We were forced to do it. Besides, the Zhao family and the Xu family had a previous engagement. It’s not too much for us to give Wanwan to Young Master Zhao, right?”
“What a forced choice!” Li Jingran snorted and said disdainfully, “Did you consider Wanwan’s feelings when you did these things?”
“She was lucky to be able to marry Zhao Zixuan,” Sun Yuelan said unhappily. “At that time, Yue’er fell in love with Young Master Zhao. If it weren’t for the fact that they weren’t fated, Xu Wanwan wouldn’t have been able to marry him.”
“Who knew that she would be so shy? She didn’t know how to please Young Master Zhao earlier. We are doing this for her own good.”
Li Jingran’s gaze turned cold. “For her own good?”
“For your own selfish desires, you didn’t hesitate to collude with Zhao Zixuan and tie up Xu Wanwan at the hotel.”
“Is this what you mean by ‘for her own good’?”
Xu Zhongyi’s expression changed drastically.
“You were the one who ruined our plan that day!”
LiJingran sneered, “It was me.”
“Tm relieved to see that you didn’t achieve your goal.”
After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt the girl in his arms leaning on him lightly.
Xu Wanwan clenched her fists. She couldn’t accept this fact for a moment. After a long time, she asked in a trembling voice, “In your eyes, what am I?”
“Even if I were a stray cat picked up by the roadside, you would still be kind enough to adopt me. How could you sell me to someone else so easily?”
Everything that happened that day was still vivid in her mind. Xu Wanwan felt as if there was a stone weighing down on her heart. She felt so uncomfortable that it was difficult for her to breathe.
‘Who would have thought that the Xu family would do such a chilling thing for the sake of profit?
All the answers to the mystery were revealed. Xu Wanwan gradually understood what was going on.
No wonder Zhao Zixuan pretended to be sick, and no wonder she was kidnapped to the hotel that day.
After that, she did not have the mood to pursue the matter. She thought that it was just a simple prank.
But she never expected that all of this was related to the Xu family.
‘The Xu family’s motive was exposed, and they were furious.
Sun Yuelan was so anxious that she stomped her feet. “What right do you have to blame us now? Your Brother is still locked up in the police station. How can we not be anxious?”
“Besides, we didn’t do anything heinous. We just want you to say a few good words to Zhao Zixuan. When he’s not angry anymore, we’ll naturally let your brother off.”
Xu Wanwan looked at them coldly. “Then why didn’t you let Xu Yue go?”
This question caught Mother Xu’s attention. She said with a strange expression, “Yue’er has already broken up with him. It’s not suitable for her to look for him again.”
“Yue’er can give the Young Master of the Zhao family to you. That’s her being magnanimous. What else can you not be satisfied with?”
‘Xu Yue was mixed in and did not panic at all.
She knew that the people of the Xu family would definitely protect her and stand on her side.
And that Xu Wanwan was an outsider to begin with. Even if she was despised by the Xu family, she deserved it.
Xu Yue’s heart was faintly excited, but she pretended to be innocent and said, “Sister, I’m also very sad that I can’t help the Xu family. But you’re different. You can also go and plead with Young Master Zhao, but you’re not willing…”
Xu Wanwan looked at her coldly. “You have no right to speak here.”
“Mom— Xu Yue pursed her lips and grabbed Sun Yuelan’s arm. “Sister seems to hate me.”
“Xu Wanwan, what do you want? We’ve already said that you’re lucky to be able to marry Zhao Zixuan.”
“Moreover, we did all this for you. Don’t be ungrateful.”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes widened. Hearing those words, she felt like her worldview was about to be shattered.
“You only have Xu Yue in your heart. You only worry about whether she will be bullied. When have you ever worried about me?”
“You didn’t hesitate to send me to another man’s bed and even said it was for my own good.”
“Don’t you feel disgusted?”
Xu Zhongyi: “What are you talking about! Who told you to ignore your brother!”
“He made a mistake, why should I bear the price for his mistake?” Xu Wanwan retorted with a cold expression.
‘The Xu family wanted to say something, but Li Jingran gave the Xu family a cold look and sneered, “I don’t think you know that Xu Mingcheng was drunk, right?”
“What!?” Xu Zhongyi’s eyes were full of shock.
In an instant, Xu Yue panicked and her face changed drastically.
Damn it! How did he know about Xu Mingcheng’s drunk driving?1
After the incident, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the Xu family members, she deliberately fabricated the reason why Xu Mingcheng was locked up.
Li Jingran’s cold eyes fell on Xu Yue, and he took out a report on the drunk driver and threw it at Xu Zhongyi.
“Do you think it’s as simple as hitting someone?”
“On the day of the incident, Xu Mingcheng drank with Xu Yue. After that, Xu Yue stopped him from finding a designated driver.”
Xu Zhongyi finished reading the report while trembling. He took a deep breath and raised his hand to give Xu Yue a hard slap.
“Trash!”4
