No matter how deep one feelings were, it could not stand being idled away.
No matter how tough love was, it could not not stand being worn away.
One must cherish the people in front of them, learning how to trust, tolerate, understand and communicate with each other.
After having thought through all of this, Xia Yanran had a feeling of her governing vessel being opened up suddenly.
Thinking of what Xiao Yi had said before leaving, Xia Yanran hurried to the bedside. Opening the drawer of the bedside cabinet, there was a letter and a prescription inside.
Xia Yanran was slightly puzzled and opened the letter. Seeing the contents of the letter, she was slightly stunned.
It was written by Jue Chen, who was the real Yi Ran.
In the letter, Jue Chen apologized to Xiao Yi and her. She had already visited Xiao Xi in the prison and they had talked for a long time. Xiao Xi, under her persuasion, promised to let Jue Chen know the prescription for the medicine that could make Xia Yanran pregnant. Xiao Xi had buried the medicine under a big tree in the backyard of the Old Madam’s house and Jue Chen asked Xiao Yi to take out the medicine from under the tree.
Xia Yanran saw a delicate box in the drawer. She opened the box and there was a black pill inside.
Xia Yanran realized in an instant that Xiao Yi had asked her to go out and spoke to Jue Chen alone because he wanted to ask Jue Chen to visit Xiaoxi and persuade her to take out the medicine!
So it turned out that Xiao Yi had long forgiven her, but he remained silent and only took out the medicine after she passed his test.
If she had left straight away without thinking after seeing him being intimate with Zhen Mi earlier, he might ignore her forever!
Cold sweat broke out of her back when she thought of what might have happened.
…
Xiao Yi was busy with work and did not have time to return to the office for lunch. He asked Assistant Fang to send food over to Xia Yanran. After she had finished eating, Xia Yanran felt tired and she lay on the bed to sleep.
When she woke up, it was already three in the afternoon.
Xia Yanran opened the door a crack and looked outside secretly. Xiao Yi had returned to the office and was sitting on the leather chair, with three men in suits sitting in front of the desk.
It must be the higher management of the corporation.
Xia Yanran did not dare to go out and she shut the door quietly.
After nearly an hour, Xia Yanran heard that there were no more voices in the office and she opened the door again.
She had just reached out her head when the man who was sitting on the leather chair suddenly turned the chair and faced the door.
Their eyes met.
Xia Yanran’s heart thumped crazily.
“There’s no one here. Come here.”
Xia Yanran tidied her hair and clothes and walked towards Xiao Yi. She had just approached him when her wrist was grabbed by him. She fell onto his strong legs. Why were they so hard! Were they made of bricks?!
Putting her hands on the man’s firm and broad shoulders, Xia Yanran looked nervously out of the office, afraid that someone would come in…
“Aren’t you very brave? What are you afraid of?”
Xia Yanran wanted to get up from his legs, but he held her waist tightly, making her unable to move. Her ears turned red slightly, “Now your status is different. You’re the boss of a big corporation and have to pay attention to your image in front of your employees. You can’t behave like when you were still a big boss…”
“I am the big boss here. Who dares to say anything if I want to hug my woman?”
Xia Yanran felt a lump in her throat when she heard Xiao Yi’s words.
This was the Xiao Yi she was familiar with! She didn’t care anymore. If someone saw them, then so be it!
Xia Yanran wrapped her hands around Xiao Yi’s neck and her eyes fell onto his handsome face. She said, slightly choked up, “I’ve taken the medicine in the box.”
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows. “You’re not afraid that it’s poisoned?”
“If there’s poison, you wouldn’t have put it in the drawer for me to see it. I think that after taking out the pill, you must have checked it with a doctor and let me see it after confirming that there’s nothing wrong with it.”
Xiao Yi raised his hand and pinched the tip of Xia Yanran’s delicate nose. “What do you want me to say about you? Sometimes you’re as clever as a fox, but sometimes you’re stupid as a pig too.”
Xia Yanran glared at Xiao Yi. “You’re the pig.”
“Oh, we’ve just made up and you’re turning into a tigress again?”
Xia Yanran lowered her eyes, saying nothing and not looking at him.
Xiao Yi raised Xia Yanran’s chin, his eyes half closed. “Why, I can’t even tease you now?”
Xia Yanran buried her face into Xiao Yi’s neck, and bit him hard on the neck. “I thought we couldn’t go back to the sweet days from before. Xiao Yi, I’m really sorry.”
Lowering his head, Xiao Yi kissed the top of Xia Yanran’s head. “Then you have to compensate me in the future.”
Xia Yanran, with her face buried in his neck, hummed in agreement.
They continued to hug quietly for a while. Seeming to have thought of something, Xia Yanran raised her head and looked at Xiao Yi’s chiseled and well-defined facial features. She could not help touching his face. “You’re much thinner. I’m fat. And bloated.”
“I heard from your brother that you’re taking medicine. Don’t take it anymore in the future.”
Xia Yanran nodded. “Let’s see if that pill has any effects.”
“So you want to have children with me?”
Xia Yanran looked at him. ‘You said it yourself. If I can’t have children you’ll still be with me all your life.”
“What if I regret it?”
Xia Yanran glared at him, making a face at him. “Then I’ll eat you up.”
Xiao Yi laughed and held Xia Yanran’s face in his hands…
“President Xiao, I still have a report to show you…” Assistant Fang knocked and pushed open the door. He froze immediately like a statue when he saw the man and woman who were kissing deeply.
The financial manager who was behind Assistant Fang saw that Assistant Fang was rooted to the spot so he stood on tiptoes and looked into the office.
All he saw was Xia Yanran jumping down from Xiao Yi’s lap hurriedly.
Xia Yanran did not expect that they would be seen kissing intimately and she felt so embarrassed she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and hide inside.
“I’ll go to the lounge first.” Xia Yanran wanted to leave.
As she turned around, Xiao Yi grabbed her hand. He did not look at her, but was looking at Assistant Fang and the financial manager. “Don’t be surprised, she’s my wife.”
Xia Yanran was speechless.
Assistant Fang was shocked.
The financial manager was also shocked.
Assistant Fang responded first. He took a few steps forward and greeted Xia Yanran, “Hello, Lady Boss.”
The financial manager smiled and nodded. “Hello, Lady Boss.”
Xiao Yi was satisfied with the way they addressed her and waved his hand. “Put the report down and go out!”
After Xia Yanran and Xiao Yi were left in the office, Xia Yanran was pulled into the man’s arms and kissed thoroughly again.
…
Xiao Yi was busy with work until seven in the evening.
After eating dinner, Xia Yanran learned from Xiao Yi what had happened during the explosion in the Old Madam’s house and she went to the hospital to visit Tang Chao.
Seeing Tang Chao with one arm broken and lying on the bed unconscious, Xia Yanran couldn’t stop the tears that fell.
