“Dear…” Tears of joy welled in Xu Xiyan’s eyes and fell in large beads from the corners of her eyes. “I didn’t expect you to come and save me! I thought I was dead for sure!”
“No, that never would have happened. Even if you’ve gone to the netherworld or the afterlife, I would always come to save you!”
As long as he was there, he would not easily allow her to leave him.
The couple spoke a lot of intimate words, gazing at each other for a moment. Xu Xiyan noticed blood under the nails of all his fingers and grabbed his hand anxiously. She asked as she inspected it, “What happened to your hands?”
“Nothing,” he said as he grabbed her hand in return to stop her from looking at it.
Xu Xiyan had already guessed it. “You were digging in the mudslide with your bare hands and injured them in order to rescue me, didn’t you?”
Huo Yunshen did not speak, his silence admitting it.
Xu Xiyan’s heart felt numb as though it was stuffed with cotton. She could imagine him at the scene at that time, digging at the mudslide with his bare hands under heavy rain. She felt incredibly touched.
Tears slipped down her cheeks silently.
Huo Yunshen noticed that she was crying and quickly wiped her tears, and said gently to her, “Why are you crying now? Saving my wife is my obligatory duty. If you’re so moved that you’re unable to repay my kindness, then spend your life with me. If you can’t now, you can do it a few more times after you’ve recovered.”
Xu Xiyan was so amused by the man’s words that her tears became tears of laughter. She remembered Xiaoyu and became anxious again. “Oh, right, when you were rescuing me, did you see a little girl in the back seat?”
“Don’t worry, she has been sent to the hospital. The doctor has done surgery on her for her appendicitis. She is fine now,” Huo Yunshen said.
“I’m glad to hear that.”
Xu Xiyan was really afraid she had caused Xiaoyu to lose her life because of her decision.
After a while, she thought of getting up. “I’m going to see Xiaoyu.”
“Don’t worry about her now, you can go after you’ve recovered.” Huo Yunshen held her down to stop her from moving, then leaned over and kissed her.
If she hadn’t just escaped from death, making her weak, he really felt like embracing her into his very bones.
While Xu Xiyan was resting peacefully in hospital, the hope and charity team ended the trip in advance due to the natural disaster.
Later, Ye Xun came to the hospital with his men to see Xu Xiyan. When he saw Huo Yunshen, he took the initiative to ask him to punish him.
Huo Yunshen had tasked him to protect Xu Xiyan, but when something had happened to her, they did not even realize it. He was really unworthy of Huo Yunshen’s trust.
However, in this regard, Huo Yunshen did not press him. The incident had suddenly happened and he could not blame him.
Wandou and Ni Xuelin also came over to the hospital. In the ward, three girls talked about the incident at the time. Both Wandou and Ni Xuelin expressed their guilt.
“Everything is okay now. Please don’t blame yourselves anymore,” Xu Xiyan comforted the two girls.
“Sister Jing Xi, that Lan Ling-Er is really too much! How could she just abandon you and run off?” Wandou said indignantly.
“Do you girls think she would be willing to save me?” Xu Xiyan asked.
True, she had a point!
If Lan Ling-Er was the kind of person who would save someone, she would not release snakes in their room.
You really can’t count on such a vicious person like her.
As they chatted, Wandou remembered something. “Oh, right, Sister Jing Xi. President Xiao had called to ask about your situation and she also wanted me to inform you by the way: Your LK product endorsement contract has been canceled by the company.”
“Why? The contract period has not yet been fulfilled. If we cancel the contract now, we will have to pay the penalty.”
Xu Xiyan had just participated in the LK charity awards ceremony recently. What was the reason for the termination of contract now?
Xiao Yuqian must be out of her mind, right?
“I don’t know the specific reasons. President Xiao said that the penalty has been paid and the contract is officially lifted. The company’s decisions are all for your own good,” Wandou added.
