Xia Yangyang seriously said, "Lu Haotian, I’m warning you, I’m not going to help you take care of your own daughter. That’s your responsibility as her father. I have no such obligation. Don’t think I’m too kindhearted. Why should I support a little girl for no reason? One child is already enough of a headache for me. You’d better always think about your own safety. If anything happens to you, little Xingxing will be an orphan. In the future, with no one to protect her and everyone bullying her, she’ll be very pitiful. You’d better keep that in mind." Xia Yangyang was genuinely both scared and angry, which is why she said such "tough words." It’s really because Lu Haotian’s words frightened Xia Yangyang. Up until now, Xia Yangyang’s heart was still pounding uncontrollably. Xia Yangyang understands Lu Haotian’s character. Xia Yangyang doesn’t want anyone to fight desperately over this matter. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel(ꜰ)ire.net Yet, Xia Yangyang just feels uncomfortable inside. Lu Haotian put on a playful expression. Seemingly a little pleased and satisfied. Watching him , for a moment Xia Yangyang felt like that smile took them back to their youthful days. He was still the same domineering and reckless Lu Haotian. Xia Yangyang suddenly felt a pang of heartache. Xia Yangyang was tidying up in the kitchen. Lu Haotian went to the study room again. After Xia Yangyang finished tidying up, she was originally planning to return to the bedroom. Little Xingxing should be going to sleep now. But Xia Yangyang thought for a while. And still sliced some fruits, made a fruit platter, and brought it to Lu Haotian’s study. Lu Haotian was still on the phone. From his tone, it seemed like he was making some arrangements. Lu Haotian’s voice was calm and steady, like a general expertly planning strategies. In Xia Yangyang’s impression, Lu Haotian is not such a person. Time really changes so much. Lu Haotian just happened to hang up the phone. Seeing Xia Yangyang standing at the door with the fruit platter. Lu Haotian opened his mouth and said, "Why aren’t you asleep yet?" Xia Yangyang said, "I can’t sleep. How long will you be busy? Have some fruit." Xia Yangyang walked in. Put the fruit on Lu Haotian’s desk. Lu Haotian ate a piece of orange: "Delicious." Xia Yangyang opened her mouth and said, "Ah Hao, I’m sorry." Lu Haotian was slightly taken aback: "Why are you saying sorry to me all of a sudden?" Xia Yangyang said, "I don’t even know why, I just feel very sorry for you." Xia Yangyang’s mood is very strange. These past two days alone with Lu Haotian, Xia Yangyang thought of many past events. They were originally childhood sweethearts. But how did things come to where they are today? Maybe it’s because of Gong Xue’er, or perhaps because of Lu Haotian’s youthful circumstances. But suddenly, Xia Yangyang only felt that she also had a lot of responsibility. Just because her life is now happy and content. With someone who loves her by her side. And Lu Haotian, ultimately, cannot escape the shadows of the past. Lu Haotian said he would never marry in this life. Does he plan to be lonely for the rest of his life? Lu Haotian, however, smiled calmly: "Alright, Yangyang, don’t overthink it. There’s another tough battle tomorrow, go get some rest." Xia Yangyang nodded: "I’ll go to sleep, you should rest early too." Xia Yangyang turned to leave. But was pulled back by Lu Haotian grabbing her arm. Lu Haotian pulled hard, directly enveloping Xia Yangyang in his embrace. Instinctively, Xia Yangyang wanted to push him away. But in the end, she did not. Lu Haotian’s hug was very restrained.
