Chapter 240 This face, they had truly never seen before
signal-blocking device on it, cutting off my contact with the outside world. What is your purpose""Of course, I want you to focus on painting."This reason clearly couldn't persuade Mu Xing, and she di...Tang Ruowan choked back tears and thanked Zhou Qi.
Zhou Qi hesitated for a moment, then persuaded again: "Miss Tang, I understand your feelings, and I know some words are inappropriate to say now, but I still want to say that... that person is not someone we can afford to offend. Since things have come to this, instead of making reckless sacrifices, it's better to live a good life in the future."
Since the Tang family's downfall, Tang Ruowan has seen through the coldness of the world. Now that someone can still speak to her in this way, it is truly not easy.
She bowed deeply to Zhou Qi, "Thank you, Lawyer Zhou. I will always cherish your help during this time."
A trace of guilt flashed in Zhou Qi's eyes, "Miss Tang, you're too kind. It's just within my duties. The firm still has some matters to attend to, so I'll head back first. If Miss Tang needs any help, please feel free to contact me at any time."
He said that, then hurried away.
Tang Ruowan watched Zhou Qi leave, lowering her head to look at the letter in her hand. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with surging hatred.
Her younger sister was sent to prison, and she endured it.
Her family was destroyed, she endured it.
Her younger sister was imprisoned, her father was arrested, and she endured it all.
She even convinced herself that it was her younger sisters who were at fault, having gotten involved with people they shouldn't have, which led to the Tang family's downfall. As long as she was alive, she could endure anything.
But now, her father has been driven to death by hatred. If she endures this any longer, she would be a disgrace to womanhood.
Fu Lingxiao!
From today onwards, I, Tang Ruowan, and you, shall never be on speaking terms!
- Your Noble Estate.
Medical building.
The door to the ward was pushed open, and a figure glided in quietly, kneeling gently beside the bed.
The sound was so subtle, even the man sleeping lightly on the bed still sensed it. His cold eyes suddenly opened, filled with a dangerous and fierce light. As he saw the person kneeling before him, he silently withdrew his gaze.
Pale lips curled slightly: "What are you kneeling for"
The person kneeling before the hospital bed was none other than the bodyguard who had held Fu Lingxiao hostage last night. He returned to learn that his knife had almost cost his master's life, so he hurried over to plead for forgiveness.
"My subordinates didn't know their place and offended Master Fu. Please punish them, Master Fu."
Fu Lingxiao had lost too much blood, his face and lips were pale as death, but he acted like nothing was wrong, saying in a calm voice: "It's fine, get up."
"Master Fu, please let me kneel."
Kneeling, my heart felt at ease.
Fu Lingxiao followed him, instructing Shen Lue at the door to prepare the carriage, then lifted the blanket and got up.
The bodyguard hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Master Fu, the doctor said your injuries are severe and you need to lie down and rest for a while."
Fu Lingxiao's cold eyes swept over, the bodyguard immediately shut his mouth, watching the man take faltering steps out of the ward, he worriedly climbed up from the ground and followed him.
The car was already waiting at the entrance of the medical building. Shen strode over and opened the door, and a petite figure suddenly popped out of the car, “Uncle!”
Fu Lingxiao's indifferent expression froze, his handsome brows furrowed. He had intended to leave for the company while the little girl was still asleep, avoiding her as quickly as possible, but she suddenly appeared.
Now, that's hard to explain.
Mu Xing stood before the man, looking up at his pale face, her heart aching with sympathy.
After she ran away last night, she secretly went back and happened to see her uncle being taken to the medical building by an ambulance. Considering that her uncle didn't want her to know, she didn't follow along.
After waiting at the villa all night, she realized her uncle wasn't coming back. She knew he must be seriously hurt. Unable to bear it any longer, she came to find him. On the way, she met a passing driver who accompanied her.
After a moment of eye contact, Mu Xing took the initiative to reach out and help the man up. "Uncle Xiao, get in the car," she said.
Fu Lingxiao was carefully helped onto the carriage by her. Looking at the little girl's worried face, he reached out and rubbed her hair, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry."
Mu Xing softly hummed in response, but her eyes brimmed with unshed tears.
When I was helping my uncle just now, she secretly felt his pulse. It was floating and empty in the middle, a sign of blood loss. My uncle was clearly very hurt, but he lied to her.
Fu Lingxiao didn't order to go anywhere, the driver drove to the villa gate and stopped.
Mu Xing opened the door and got out of the car first, standing outside the car door and reaching into the car to help her little uncle.
Fu Lingxiao cooperated and took her hand, got off the car, he raised his foot just about to step up the stairs, then heard the little girl say: "Uncle Xiao wait a minute."
Fu Lingxiao turned his head in confusion to look at the little girl. Her slender arm suddenly reached out, and the next second, he felt himself lifted completely off the ground.
“...”
Looking at himself being picked up princess-style, Fu Lingxiao stiffened all over, stunned for three full seconds.
As if struck by some soul-shaking force, a look of astonishment, disbelief, and even resignation washed over his pale handsome face. A whirlwind of emotions, too complex to describe in words.
Shen Yue, the bodyguard, driver, and others waiting beside him were all dumbfounded.
A petite girl, with a slender frame, held a tall man in her arms like a princess. Her long legs dangled from her slim arms, seemingly having nowhere to go.
What have they never seen before
They had never seen such a sight.
The wise and mighty Master Fu, being princess-carried by Miss Mu Xing, is simply astonishing!
In the shocked gazes of everyone, Mu Xing had already embraced the man and stepped onto the stairs, with a seemingly matter-of-fact concerned tone, “Little uncle, you are very weak now and shouldn't move around. Let me carry you back to your room.”
Fu Lingxiao's mind was occupied by the two words 'outrageous'. Just as he was about to step down, the little girl cast him a warning glance. "Uncle Xiao, don't move!"
Fu Lingxiao: "..."
He rubbed his forehead, explaining helplessly: "Honey, my injury is in my abdomen. This posture isn't good for my wound."
"I know, but Uncle, if you go up the stairs yourself, your wound will hurt more. I'll go faster, just bear with it."
Mu Xing quickened her pace and walked into the villa.
Pain can be endured, but this... how can this be endured!
Fu Lingxiao directly took a long stride, stepping onto the ground, “Baby, I can walk myself, you just hold onto me.”
Mu Xing felt sorry for her little uncle, and insisted, “No, Little Uncle, I’d rather hold you.”
At that moment, Wu Butler happened to come out of the kitchen and saw in the hall, his young master leaning against Xiao Baobao's arms, one leg being held by Xiao Baobao, and the other leg on the ground.
The posture was extremely odd.
He furrowed his brows in confusion, hastening towards them. "Young Master, Xiaomu Xing, what are you two doing"
Hearing the sound, Fu Lingxiao immediately brought down the other leg and stood up straight. He reached out and gently smoothed the wrinkles on his shirt. "It's fine."
Mùxīng then looked at Wu Guānjǐ and 'complained' to him: "Uncle Xiaoshū is injured, I want to carry him upstairs, but he insists on walking himself."
Wu Guanta froze：“……”
What, what
Baby wants to hug his young masteru're so cunning."Fu Lingxiao chuckled softly: "Could it be that you're just too stupid""I'm not stupid, I trust my uncle."The little girl retorted unhappily.Fu Lingxiao, hearing this, couldn't help bu...
