Seeing that the little one was sleeping, Xiao Ying stared at her fair and soft face for a while before she said softly to Tang En, “Let her sleep for a while more!”
Tang En left the princess room quietly.
Tang En saw Xiao Ying eating cake in the video and asked gently, “Have you bought the plane tickets? Send me the flight number later.”
Xiao Ying nodded and took a bite of the cake. “It’s alright. I’ll take a taxi back when I get there.”
“Wanwan can’t wait to see Mommy. She told me before she went to bed last night that she wanted to go with me to fetch Mommy.”
Xiao Ying thought of her little cutie and a gentle expression appeared on her elegant and delicate face.
“I’ll send you the flight number later.”
“Okay.” Tang En was fair and handsome, belonging to the artistic type of young man. When he smiled, his eyes would make people feel comfortable. “Is everything okay with your sister?”
“Yes, she’s quite good. Her husband loves her very much. I was a little worried in the past, but now I’m relieved.”
“That’s good.”
Although they were only video chatting, there was a beautiful and harmonious atmosphere between them.
…
Mo Tian found the hotel Xiao Ying stayed in and Long Ming drove over alone.
At the hotel entrance, he saw Xiao Ying sitting in the corner through the French windows of a dessert shop.
Long Ming got out of the car and strode toward the dessert shop.
Xiao Ying and Tang En talked about how they would bring Wanwan out for a vacation soon, a sweet smile on her lips. “Then, let’s go to Hawaii. I quite like the clear blue sea over there…”
As Xiao Ying spoke, she suddenly felt her scalp tingle.
It was like a pair of cold eyes that were hard to see were on her.
Xiao Ying turned around immediately.
Her eyes tightened when she saw the man standing behind her.
Tang En had also clearly seen the man behind Xiao Ying. Seeing the man’s unfriendly gaze, he said, “Ying, I want to eat chocolate cake. Buy me a piece.”
Xiao Ying knew Tang En’s intentions and she nodded. “Okay, I’ll go buy it now.”
After ending the video call, Xiao Ying walked around Long Ming toward the cashier counter.
After buying a chocolate cake, Xiao Ying paid the bill and left hurriedly.
Did Long Ming suddenly finding this place mean that… He was like her and that he had not succeeded in being hypnotized?
Thinking of his strange expression after they met, Xiao Ying was almost certain that he had not lost his memories.
Xiao Ying entered the hotel lobby and entered the elevator with complicated feelings.
She pressed the button to close the elevator doors. Just as the doors were about to close, a hand reached in suddenly.
Xiao Ying jumped in shock.
Looking up at the man who had entered, she thought that it was Long Ming.
But it was not.
Her heart that was in her throat fell back to its original place.
A middle-aged man walked in and glanced at Xiao Ying. He wanted to blame her for closing the elevator door so quickly even though she knew there was someone behind her, but seeing that she was as pretty as a flower, he said nothing.
Xiao Ying took the elevator to the tenth floor.
After she got out, she walked through a corridor toward her room.
When she was a few meters away, she seemed to have noticed something even though she had her head lowered, and she looked up suddenly…
The man she thought had left was leaning against the door of her room.
He was playing with a cigar.
Xiao Ying felt her neck turn cold.
Her heart, which had finally calmed down, was in her mouth again.
She had never expected that he would be waiting outside her room.
Over the past two days, she had been thinking of ways to prevent any interaction with him. In the end, it seemed like the more she did not want to, the more they came into contact with each other.
Xiao Ying had mixed feelings.
Her grip on the cake box tightened slightly.
She did not know what she was afraid of. Even if he had not forgotten her, he had promised her that he would not disturb her again.
Besides, he already had a fiancée.
Long Ming leaned against the door, his eyes lowered. He did not look at Xiao Ying.
The light from the corridor lamp reflected off his well-defined face, as if it was covered with a layer of faint light. Under his tall nose bridge, his thin lips were pursed tightly and the cold aura he exuded made people not dare to approach him.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ying still walked toward him.
There was no way of escaping. She knew that running away would not solve any problems.
She could only face it!
Xiao Ying thought that she had returned to a normal life in the past few years. However, after seeing Long Ming, she realized that she still could not calmly face what she had done.
When Wan Bao grew up in the future, she did not dare to imagine what she would think of her if she knew that her mommy used to be a bad woman hated by everyone.
When Xiao Ying was one or two steps away from Long Ming, the phone in her pocket rang.
Xiao Ying knew that it was Tang En.
There was no one else in the corridor, only Long Ming and her. The atmosphere was quiet and stiff, so the ringing of the phone was exceptionally striking.
Taking out her phone, Xiao Ying was about to answer when a large hand reached over and took her phone away.
Xiao Ying stared at her phone as he threw it to the ground. She stared at him for a few seconds before she slowly raised her long and thick eyelashes, pretending to be calm as she said, “Mr Long, I don’t know what I did wrong today to offend you. If I did anything wrong, please forgive me.”
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying. Seeing that she was still acting, a mocking smile appeared on his thin lips. “Number 21, aren’t you going to confess to me?”
Hearing Long Ming call her Number 21, Xiao Ying’s heart skipped a beat.
Just like her, he had not actually been hypnotized!
Xiao Ying’s heart was filled with complicated feelings and her emotions surged. However, after so many years of experience, she was able to hide her emotions. She smirked and smiled slightly. “Mr Long, I don’t know who the 21 you’re talking about is. I’m sorry, it’s getting late. My lover is still waiting for the cake in my hand…”
Before Xiao Ying could finish speaking, the cake in her hand was snatched away by the man.
His large palm exerted strength and the cake box was crushed into a ball.
Xiao Ying was dumbfounded.
This fellow was really violent!
“Mr Long, what do you want?”
Xiao Ying only wanted to live the life of an ordinary person. He was a high and mighty King and there had been an indelible barrier between them. She did not want to be involved in his world anymore.
They had agreed to let each other go. Was he going back on his words?
Both of them had a thorn in their hearts. It was fine if they did not touch each other usually, but once they did, it would prick them until they bled!
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying with cold eyes. His lips moved and his voice was as cold as a demon from hell. “How long are you going to pretend? Do you really not know me anymore, or are you pretending to be hypnotized to lie to me?”
Before Xiao Ying could say anything, she heard him say, “You know that I hate being lied to the most in this life!”
When Xiao Ying heard his words, she immediately became angry.
