Lin Yixun no longer cared about anything else now. Her heart and mind were only focused on Ouyang Hao’s injuries, thinking about whether he would be alright, whether the wounds on his body would cause him irrevocable harm. In her haste, Lin Yixun accidentally pulled at the wounds on her own body. Her body felt as if it were being torn apart piece by piece, each movement causing sharp pain, but she couldn’t care about that. She turned over and got out of bed, rushing out the door. As soon as she reached the doorway of the master bedroom, Sister Yi blocked her path. "Miss Lin, why are you out of bed? Sir said that your body is still very weak..." Hearing Sister Yi mention Leng Yixiu, Lin Yixun became furious and said coldly, "Get out of my way!" Lin Yixun didn’t pay any attention to her and continued walking towards the staircase, but once again, Sister Yi pulled her back. "Miss Lin, your body hasn’t recovered yet, you shouldn’t be out of bed..." Before she could finish speaking, Lin Yixun pushed her to the ground with a single palm, and then stumbled down the stairs. Seeing this, Sister Yi hurried after her but was stopped halfway by Lin Yixun’s cold scolding. Lin Yixun’s gaze was icy, her eyes filled with deep-seated hatred, causing Sister Yi to freeze in her tracks. In the past, although Lin Yixun ignored Leng Yixiu, she was still somewhat kind to Sister Yi. Seeing Lin Yixun , Sister Yi was at a loss. The commotion between the two quickly disturbed Leng Yixiu, who was holding a video conference in his study. He cut off the video and rushed out of the study, only to see Lin Yixun already in the living room on the first floor, wobbling towards the villa’s main door. Her figure was so frail, like a withering leaf in the cold wind, on the verge of collapsing at any moment. Seeing this, the man felt his heart tighten, and quickly ran downstairs, catching up to her in a few strides. "Where are you going?" A large hand gripped her shoulder tightly, followed by the man’s cold voice. That familiar yet strange voice filled Lin Yixun with disgust, and the large hand on her shoulder made her almost want to vomit. "Lin Yixun, your body is still very weak." Lin Yixun repeated coldly. Seeing the man still not releasing her, she turned suddenly and, without thinking, grabbed the hand on her shoulder and bit down hard. The man grunted in pain but did not push her away. The more she hated, the harder she bit, quickly tasting the metallic tang of blood, but she didn’t let go; this injury was nothing compared to what she had suffered. Seeing this, Sister Yi was too shocked to speak. She wanted to step forward and pull Lin Yixun away but stopped when she saw the man wave a hand at her. "Sister Yi, you go downstairs." Sister Yi was utterly surprised. Why was Sir doing this, why was he letting Miss Lin hurt him? Even though she was full of astonishment, Sister Yi timidly retreated. She felt complex emotions, unsure whether to worry about Lin Yixun or Leng Yixiu. Content originally comes from novelꜰire.net It wasn’t clear how much time had passed before Lin Yixun finally let go. Without another glance at Leng Yixiu, she turned away coldly. Although she hated Leng Yixiu to the bone, she knew clearly that going head-to-head with him was like an egg hitting a rock. Right now, the most important thing for her was to find Ouyang Hao as soon as possible. She took a step to leave but was blocked by the man. Lin Yixun looked at him coldly, her eyes filled with such hatred that she seemed to want to burn him to ashes. "Do you know where Ouyang Hao is now? Aren’t you curious about how your old lover is doing?" Lin Yixun slowly turned around, suddenly grabbing the man’s collar, and asked, pausing between each word, "What did you do to Ouyang Hao? Where is he now?" "He’s fine. I had someone take him to the hospital." The man paused and looked at his watch. "Now, he should have finished the surgery." Were his leg injuries very serious? "Just a minor surgery, nothing serious," the man added. "Really?" Lin Yixun didn’t believe a word from this man; she just wanted to confirm it herself. She took a step forward but was grabbed by the man. "His family is with him now; I don’t think they would be happy to see you." Lin Yixun’s eyes dimmed. Leng Yixiu was right. Ouyang Hao’s family had always opposed their relationship and naturally wouldn’t be pleased to see her. Her shoulders sagged weakly, then she threw off Leng Yixiu’s hand harshly. "Even if I can’t see him, I won’t stay here!" The man pressed his thin lips together and said coldly, "Lin Yixun, you can’t go anywhere right now." Seeing Lin Yixun’s almond eyes glaring round in anger, the extreme hatred in them about to swallow him whole, Leng Yixiu softened his tone and said, "Other than this, I can satisfy any other request you have." "Really?" Lin Yixun said with a cold smile, "Then what if I want you to die!" Seeing the man’s face darken, his narrow eyes locking onto her in silence, Lin Yixun sneered. "See, how hypocritical. Though I wish you to die a miserable death, I know I can’t do anything to you. I just think, now that you’ve gotten me and ruined me completely, what’s the point of keeping me by your side?" "I have my own plans." "What plans? To keep a lover at home while having another outside? Or to emulate ancient kings, treating Cheng Ying as a queen while seeking thrills from me?" "Lin Yixun, some things are not what you think." "Then what are they?" Lin Yixun laughed bitterly in rage. "Don’t tell me you’ve truly fallen in love with me? Is that possible? When I offered you my true heart, you didn’t want it. Why would you cherish it now?" "Lin Yixun, what if I said I really have fallen in love with you?" The man’s sudden words made Lin Yixun pause momentarily, then she found it extremely laughable. She looked at the man’s deep eyes and laughed softly. "Leng Yixiu, do you think I’m a fool? If you loved me, would you have sent my father to prison? Would you have driven me out of A City, leaving me with no place to stand in the country? Would you have blocked every road for me, making my life dark and hopeless? If that’s love, then please, don’t love me! I can’t bear your love!" Leng Yixiu was left speechless by Lin Yixun’s words. Indeed, he had only ever hurt her. When she loved him deeply, he had treated her indifferently, even with disdain. He had thought he would despise Lin Yixun for life but underestimated the impact this woman had on him. From university to work to marriage, she had always been like a shadow by his side.
