"Xia Beichen, this illness is not easy to cure," Yun Mengli's heart pounded fiercely.
Xia Beichen sighed, "Indeed, it can't be cured."
Xiao Zhu, perhaps only when I see you will my illness be cured.
Yun Mengli asked nervously, "It's not that it can't be cured. Xia Beichen, can you tell me what symptoms you have for this illness?"
"Symptoms..." Xia Beichen pondered for a moment, "Every second I think of her, I get a headache, my shoulders ache, and my chest feels stuffy."
Yun Mengli asked puzzled, "I can understand everything else, but why do your shoulders ache?"
Xia Beichen gently stroked his shoulders and softly said, "Because I bear a heavy yet passionate love!"
Regarding his marriage with Xiao Zhu, not only his sister but also his father strongly opposed it, so he suffered immense pressure.
These were things he dared not speak aloud.
Yun Mengli's eyes were almost red.
So Xia Beichen likes her that much!
Yes, seven years ago, she was just a little girl, and Xia Beichen liked her back then, so he certainly didn't dare to say it.
Saying it would make him seem like a pervert.
Thinking of Xia Beichen enduring his love for her alone for so many years, Yun Mengli felt a lump in her throat.
"Xia Beichen, I..." Yun Mengli hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping.
She really wanted to say, "I'm grown up now, you don't have to hide your feelings anymore."
But as soon as she thought that Xia Beichen's sister was about to become her sister-in-law, her heart sank again.
How... how could this be?
"I'll give you a massage; it can relieve your shoulder pain."
Xia Beichen nodded blankly.
Yun Mengli timidly stretched out her small hand, placing it on Xia Beichen's shoulder, her excited heart and trembling hand slowly revealing a faint green energy.
Xia Beichen immediately felt a sense of relief.
Such a comfortable feeling!
It was like... when he used to stay up fighting in bloody business battles, Xiao Zhu would massage him to relieve the tension.
For a moment, Yun Mengli's figure slowly overlapped with Jiang Zhu's appearance.
"Xiao Zhu, I miss you so much~" Xia Beichen whispered, slowly reaching out his large hand and tightly grasping the girl's small hand.
"Oh!" Yun Mengli was almost exploding with excitement and didn't hear his whisper.
Xia Beichen... Xia Beichen... he... he grabbed her hand.
Xia Beichen, you don't have to suppress this feeling in your heart anymore; I'm willing!
Eyes met, and their two faces drew closer and closer.
Just then, Xia Qingyou and Jiang Zhu returned.
Seeing Xia Beichen holding a beautiful girl and about to kiss her, Jiang Zhu froze, then shook her head with a bitter smile.
This is fine too.
For some reason, she suddenly felt much better inside.
Xia Junfeng saw his daughter return and immediately roared, "You still know how to come back?"
The loud sound immediately startled the two who were about to kiss. Yun Mengli's pretty face turned red, and Xia Beichen was stunned, turning his gaze to the door, then suddenly widening his eyes.
Xiao Zhu!
My Xiao Zhu!!!
Xia Beichen's heart was about to explode. He stared blankly at his longed-for fiancée, momentarily forgetting to get up.
Xia Qingyou snorted and slowly walked into the living room, "Then I'll leave?"
Xia Junfeng was furious, "You dare to talk back? Someone, bring the family discipline..."
Yun Ze quickly interrupted, "Uncle Xia, please calm down. Xia Qingyou has worked hard all day; what does it matter if she comes back a bit late?
Moreover, Xia Qingyou is my wife now; how can she be punished so casually? As her husband, I won't agree to that~"
Though his tone was playful, it carried an undeniable meaning.
The meaning was simple: this is his wife, and even if you're her father, you can't scold her whenever you want.
Xia Junfeng froze, a bit awkward, "Uh... Yun Ze is right.
Xia Qingyou, it's not that I'm scolding you, but Yun Ze came to our Fang Family today, why didn't you come back earlier?"
His tone instantly softened a lot.
Xia Qingyou sneered, her father was truly a typical bully who feared the strong.
Yun Ze came up to her and smiled gently, "Xia Qingyou, you've worked hard. Did you encounter any accidents today?"
"None of your business," Xia Qingyou said expressionlessly, unceremoniously plopping down.
She had seen all kinds of people in the entertainment industry, and her first impression of Yun Ze was that he was hypocritical!
In contrast, the male lead was very straightforward.
He'd do you if he said he would, without any extra nonsense.
His daughter actually swore. Xia Junfeng was about to get angry again but met Yun Ze's cold gaze, and the words died in his throat.
"Heh heh, it seems Xia Qingyou's mission didn't go too smoothly today, but it's okay. As long as you want to talk, I'm always here," Yun Ze showed a refreshing smile.
After all, the alliance between the two families was initiated by him and directly decided by both parents, without Xia Qingyou's consent, so it was normal for the beauty to have resentment.
Xia Qingyou sneered, resting her chin on her hand, saying nothing.
First, let's watch the show!
Xia Junfeng was about to burst with frustration and looked at Jiang Zhu, who was standing at the door with her arms crossed, saying nothing.
Damn it, I can't scold my daughter, but I can scold this bitch, right?
"Who allowed you into my house? Someone, get this slut out of here!"
It was this woman who had hooked his handsome, charming, and mature son into a lovesick fool, a complete vixen!
Jiang Zhu looked coldly at the security guards rushing over.
"Stop!" Xia Beichen immediately stood up and roared.
"Xia Beichen, she is..." Yun Mengli keenly noticed something was wrong. Xia Beichen had let go of her hand ever since this woman appeared, and he hadn't even shifted his gaze.
The sensitive and fragile heart of the young girl slowly grew heavy.
Xia Beichen ignored everyone and rushed towards Jiang Zhu, involuntarily opening his arms, wanting to embrace the person he longed for.
"Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu, I miss you so much..."
Duang!
Jiang Zhu dodged, and the domineering CEO missed, hitting the door frame, his nose turning red.
Everyone:...
Don't laugh! Don't laugh!
Jiang Zhu said faintly, "Don't touch me."
"Xiao Zhu, you..." His fiancée's cold attitude stung Xia Beichen's heart.
Xiao Zhu must be blaming him for not picking her up immediately, for a man making a promise and not keeping it.
"Xia Beichen, you deserve to die!" The domineering CEO slapped himself.
Yun Mengli's pretty face turned pale.
Who is this woman?
Xia Junfeng stood up and snorted coldly, "Xia Beichen, even if you are the future heir of my Fang Family, how can marriage be treated as a child's game?
This woman, neither in her background nor her knowledge, is worthy of you. I absolutely will not allow her to appear in our Fang Family.
Don't think that just because you two secretly got your marriage certificate behind my back, I will back down. As long as I am alive, she will never be able to marry into my Fang Family.
You were ignorant before, but now I'm giving you a chance.
Kill this woman! I will immediately announce that you are the future head of the Fang Family!"
Yun Mengli was struck by lightning, standing frozen on the spot.
Marriage certificate?
So, this woman is... Xia Beichen's wife?
The girl's heart was about to shatter.
Xia Beichen looked at Jiang Zhu with burning eyes, "Xiao Zhu, you must be blaming me, right? I'm sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't have..."
Xia Junfeng:???
What the hell?
I'm talking to you!
