[Urban] Doting on My Sister-in-Law (Complete) - 10-12

Chapter 65.

The atmosphere among the servants of the Bei family grew increasingly uneasy. Every now and then, small groups would gather to discuss and stir, as if a hidden undercurrent could surge forth at any moment…

Enke pulled the butler aside and asked, “What’s wrong? Is the young master still in his room?”

The butler simply nodded and said, “Yes, you see, he’s been in there for two days and two nights now, and he hasn’t come out yet. He won’t let anyone in either. We haven’t seen the young mistress for several days either. Tell me,

what’s going on?” Enke was also very curious and anxious, saying, “I just can’t figure it out. What’s wrong? He’s not eating or drinking. How can anyone endure that?”

Enke

removed her mask and entered the ward. Ouyang Xi sat on the bed, his eyes fixed on the television screen. Looking at the flickering images, no one could tell what he was thinking on his handsome face.

Ouyang Xi picked up an apple, took a bite, and asked, "Is everything done?"

Enke replied, "Everything has been arranged, we're just waiting for the fish to take the bait."

"How is Qianhuan?"

Enke lowered her head slightly, "She doesn't seem to be doing well..."

Ouyang Xi turned her head to look at Enke and stared at her, saying, "What?"

Enke continued, "She doesn't want to eat anything, drink any water, or say anything."

"Bei Yifei didn't do anything to her, did he?"

Enke shook her head and said, "No, I warned him, I don't think he would dare to touch Xun Qianhuan!"

Ouyang Xi sighed, leaning against the hospital bed, and said, "This time, Qianhuan has really suffered. I hope this matter won't affect her future life, otherwise... I will never forgive myself."

Enke frowned and said, "Xi, we have no way out."

Ouyang Xi stared intently at the TV screen and said, "I know this without you reminding me, and I've already arranged everything. Let's sit down and wait for the headlines these next two days!"

Enke sighed inwardly, then said, "Bei Yiwei hasn't left his room for two days and two nights."

Ouyang Xi slightly curled her lips and said, "I'm really looking forward to his next move."

"You spoke with him?"

Ouyang Xi's gaze deepened. "I gave him a way out."

Enke asked doubtfully, "Then, do you think he would do that for a mere woman?"

Ouyang Xi rested her finger on her chin, deep in thought, and then said, "That's what I value most."

What is Bei Yiwei's attitude towards Xun Qianhuan? Would Bei Yiwei sacrifice something for her?

"What will happen to Bei Yifei then?"

"He's just a pawn in our game, useless now, we can discard him at any time!"

"I'm afraid that by then, he'll never dare to return to the Bei family."

"It's strange, we can only blame his greed!" Ouyang Xi sighed, "Human desires are truly terrifying things!"

But sometimes, even knowing how terrible it is, we willingly fall into it... Bei Yifei paced angrily around the room. Everything

that

could be moved or touched was in disarray, and two of his men stood guard at the door, heads bowed, not daring to move.

"Damn it!" Bei Yifei kicked the wooden chair, angrily saying, "Two days have passed, and that brat hasn't sent a single word!! Not a single phone call, not even a fart!"

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The tables and chairs were overturned and overturned, a complete mess.

After a moment of anger, Bei Yifei's mind raced, and he muttered to himself, "Could it be that that kid has abandoned his wife?"

"Even if Bei Yixin has abandoned his wife, surely he wouldn't disregard the Bei family's reputation?"

At the doorway stood a masked man, still dressed in a sharp suit. His expression was hidden, but an unusual aura emanated from him.

Bei Yifei looked at the masked man and said, "You've come at the right time. Let's discuss our strategy."

The masked man chuckled, "Our strategy is to wait."

Bei Yifei's expression was anxious: "But I can't wait any longer! My heart is pounding!"

The masked man waved his hand and said, "Mr. Bei, please remember to remain calm! We hold the cards now. It's not us who should be anxious, but the other side!" Bei

Yifei looked at him: "You seem very confident?"

"Perhaps Mr. Bei isn't confident?"

Bei Yifei was taken aback.

The masked man continued, "Who would do something they weren't confident about?"

Hearing this, Bei Yifei seemed to understand and felt relieved.

The masked man glanced at Bei Yifei. This man had endured so much in the Bei family for so many years, yet at such a crucial moment, he was so agitated. What great things could he possibly accomplish?

"Have you prepared food for Xun Qianhuan?"

Bei Yifei said calmly, "So what if I have? She simply won't eat it. Are you worried about poisoning her?"

The masked man chuckled, "It's normal to be worried, isn't it?"

They were kidnappers now. The masked man carried the food, and his subordinate unlocked the door for him, then gently pushed it open. The masked man slowly walked in, his footsteps making a soft sound on the floor. The room reeked of dust.

Xun Qianhuan, hugging her knees, huddled in a corner, her eyes vacant, her face deathly pale, even her lips devoid of color. In just two days, she seemed to have lost weight. Although Xun Qianhuan kept her head down, she could still catch a glimpse of the masked man out of the corner of her eye. Unlike the usual menacing deliverymen, he wasn't as talkative, nor did he simply leave the food uneaten and throw it away! Today, the masked man said nothing. He simply kept watching her. Xun Qianhuan sensed something was wrong. She slowly raised her head, weakly looking at the masked man. Unable to see his features, she stared at him through the mask, blinked, and looked again… He looked so familiar! Xun Qianhuan's weak voice urgently asked, "Who are you?" The masked man was startled and immediately turned his head away, then said, "Your kidnapper!" Xun Qianhuan shook her head, saying, "No, no, you're not a kidnapper. You look so familiar. Who are you?" The masked man calmly said, "We don't know each other before." Xun Qianhuan exclaimed, "Impossible!" He really did look very familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was. To be honest, she was so hungry that her thinking ability was declining. She desperately searched her memory, but it was all in vain. "If you want to know who I am, you'll have to fill your stomach first. Are you planning to stay hungry forever?" Xun Qianhuan was slightly taken aback.

The masked man continued, "Don't worry, you won't be in any danger. You'll leave here safely. And there's absolutely no poison in the food. Believe it or not!"

With that, the masked man left the room and locked the door again…

Xun Qianhuan stared blankly at the steaming food…

Chapter Sixty-Six: Bei Yixin's Death

. Xun Qianhuan reached out and slowly picked up the lunchbox. At this moment, she seemed to have almost lost the strength to even lift it…

With difficulty, she opened the lunchbox, hesitated, picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a bunch of vegetables, and finally managed to put them in her mouth, chewing slowly…

Tears, crystal clear, fell drop by drop, into the lunchbox…

How long had it been?

How long had she been here? Although she had only seen three sunrises and sunsets, it felt like three lifetimes had passed… Her heart was gradually being worn down until now it was so weak she could barely feel a heartbeat. She was afraid, a fear that pierced her very soul…

Why?

Why was she still here after so long?

Why? Why

hadn't anyone come to save her?

Is it true that this world has returned to its starting point, leaving her all alone...

without Xi, without anyone who truly loves her...

Xi, where are you?

Do you know how scared I am, how scared I am, how scared I am...

Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, her consciousness grew fainter and fainter, her body seemed to grow lighter and lighter, the lunchbox suddenly fell from her hands, and she fainted to the ground...

The lock on the door clicked again, and someone opened it. The masked man gently pushed open the door and walked in again. Looking at the woman lying on the ground, he couldn't help but frown, then went forward, gently picked her up, and carried her out of the room...

According

to reports:

The president of the Bei Group died suddenly overnight, the inside story is suspicious, and reliable sources reveal that his vast estate will be redistributed!!

The sudden death of the president of the Bei Group has raised many questions and rumors. All newspaper headlines and television news are discussing this matter. Such propaganda and rumors flooded the internet; even major websites featured headlines like "The Mysterious Death of the Bei Family Heir..." drawing global attention.

Bei Yifei, holding the latest newspaper, sat in his chair. In that instant, his mind went blank, as if he had lost his ability to speak, see, and hear—everything had vanished. His body, like a dying prey, struggled in its death throes, yet, in the end, he came back to life…

The newspaper fell to the ground, his fingertips and heart trembling, his face drained of color!

A timid subordinate finally couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice, "Boss, what should we do now?"

Bei Yifei instantly flew into a rage, shouting, "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"

Was anyone more unlucky than him?

What was his next step? What should he do next?!

What was going on here? Why did Bei Yixin have to die now of all times? There must be something fishy going on!

Damn it, was Bei Yixin really dead or just faking it?!

If he's truly dead, then his death is perfectly timed. If he dies now, Xun Qianhuan, his bargaining chip, is practically useless!

If he faked his death, what's the reason? Just to rescue his wife? How can that be explained? It's impossible!

Now, he truly has no other choice!!

If he had known things would turn out this way, he wouldn't have agreed to partner with that unknown person to kidnap that woman. At least now, he could at least have food to eat back at the Bei family! Now, not only can he not return to the Bei family, but he's also penniless. What will he do?

Bei Yifei coldly asked, "Where's Mr. Mask?"

The subordinate replied, "He went out and hasn't returned yet."

Bei Yifei immediately said, "Call him and tell him to come back immediately!"

The subordinate replied again, "I just called, but the phone is unreachable!"

Bei Yifei glared angrily and cursed, "Damn it!"

Another subordinate rushed in, looking panicked, "Boss, boss..."

The subordinate was breathless and couldn't even speak.

Bei Yifei was so angry he almost choked, yelling, "Spit it out!!"

His subordinate, catching his breath, said, "Something terrible has happened...something terrible has happened! Xun Qianhuan is missing!"

Bei Yifei slammed his fist on the table, furious, "What?!" Her eyes were glued to the television screen as reporters relentlessly

discussed the cause of death and the estate of the president

of the Bei Group, broadcasting non-stop from morning till night.

Ouyang Xi leisurely picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and put it down. A slight smile played on her lips as she said, "Bei Yiwei really kept his word!" En Ke leaned against

the wall, looking at Ouyang Xi, and said, "We did a great job this time."

Ouyang Xi said, "Thank you for your hard work."

En Ke smiled, "Let's not be so polite, brothers. It's awkward!"

Ouyang Xi glanced at him and laughed, "You did all the work this time, while I was lying in a hospital bed."

"Please!" Enke said, "You provide the brains, I'll provide the strength, it's fair!"

Ouyang Xi smiled, then turned her gaze back to the television and said, "From today onwards, Bei Yixin will no longer exist! Qianhuan... she's free."

Enke sighed, "These past few days have been terrifying for her."

"Do you think she'll blame me if she knew I did this?" Ouyang Xi said to Enke, yet it also seemed like she was talking to herself.

Enke exhaled and said, "Then never let her know..."

Ouyang Xi lowered her gaze: "I hope so."

Enke straightened up and slowly walked towards Ouyang Xi, saying, "Do you know?"

"What?"

"While she was unconscious, she kept calling your name..."

Ouyang Xi suddenly looked up at the indifferent Enke and said, "Really?"

Enke said, "After this experience, I can now be sure that she loves you and is very dependent on you. In these past few days, she has placed all her hopes on you. Perhaps, she thinks that the only person who saved her is you..."

Ouyang Xi was stunned for a long time upon hearing this, then laughed out loud: "Why does it sound so real?"

Enke smiled and pursed her lips: "I'm just guessing."

"When you took Qianhuan to that hospital, did Bei Yiwei arrive?"

"Don't worry, I waited until Bei Yiwei arrived at the hospital before quietly leaving. He must be by her side now."

"He didn't find out?"

Enke laughed. "I'm not stupid enough to let him find out."

Ouyang Xi said, "That's good."

Enke poured herself half a glass of water and drank it down, then said, "Bei Yiwei is your rival in love, so why did you send Xun Qianhuan into his hands this time?"

Ouyang Xi said, "Are you genuinely confused or just pretending?"

Enke shrugged, neither confirming nor denying, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Ouyang Xi continued, "Qianhuan was kidnapped, and no one knows except the two parties involved. If I keep Qianhuan by my side now, it will definitely arouse Bei Yiwei's suspicion!"

Enke nodded in agreement, saying, "Luckily, Ouyang Xi hasn't let emotions cloud your judgment!"

Ouyang Xi glared at him: "What are you saying? I, Ouyang Xi, have always understood what I should do, and I must fulfill my uncle's last wish to annex the Bei Group. Now is a crucial time. With Bei Yixin dead, the Bei Group is leaderless, and Bei Yiwei's identity means nothing. No one in the Bei Group will obey a playboy who idles around all day. The Bei Group is in a state of panic. This is the easiest time to deal with them!"

Enke's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's right, this is our ultimate goal!" Chapter Sixty-Seven. Bei Yiwei sat by the hospital bed

, quietly gazing at the unconscious Xun Qianhuan. Her face was pale, cold sweat beaded on her forehead, her eyes were closed, her brows were furrowed, and her lips moved as she murmured, mostly unintelligible. However, Bei Yiwei heard one word: "Xi...Xi..." Bei Yiwei's cold, handsome face remained expressionless. His sensual lips were pursed, and his dark eyes were deep as he stared at the person on the bed. He slowly raised his hand, his long, slender fingers hesitatingly reaching out to the unconscious face before finally touching her fluctuating cheeks. Her skin was beautiful, incredibly soft to the touch. In the few days he hadn't seen her, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Her once chubby cheeks were now half their original size, and her chin was much more pointed. Bei Yiwei realized that, without knowing when it started, he... He no longer cared about her appearance; what mattered to him was her heart… Xun Qianhuan was unconscious all night, and Bei Yiwei stayed by her bedside for a while. Most of the time, he quietly watched her, wiping the tears from her forehead and covering her with the blanket she had inadvertently lifted. When he was too tired, he would take a nap, but he was very vigilant. He would wake up at the slightest movement from Xun Qianhuan and continue to gaze at her, occasionally leaning down to gently kiss her cheek… The next day, the sun shone brightly, the sunlight was warm, and a gentle breeze rustled the leaves. Xun Qianhuan kept her eyes closed... Bei Yiwei stood up from his chair, his sexy body slowly walking to the window. He stared blankly at the scenery outside... In the afternoon, Xun Qianhuan's fingers twitched, and her murmurs grew louder: "Xi...Xi..." Bei Yiwei leaned against the window, watching her, his gaze deep, his heart beating like a machine, devoid of any emotion... In the evening, Xun Qianhuan finally slowly opened her eyes. Her fan-like eyelashes fluttered, revealing a pair of watery eyes, brimming with emotion, her mind... Feeling slightly dizzy, she could only call out, "Xi...Xi...Where are you?" Bei Yiwei suddenly turned around, his eyes brightening instantly, flashing with a sharp light as he stared at Xun Qianhuan. A smile finally appeared on his lips as he exclaimed with delight, "Qianhuan, you're finally awake!!" Xun Qianhuan was stunned. Hearing this, she turned her head slightly and saw Bei Yiwei's cold and handsome figure. However, it was very blurry, so blurry that she couldn't see his face clearly and didn't know who he was. She could only murmur, "Xi...Xi..." Bei Yiwei was taken aback. The smile on his lips vanished, and his gaze returned to its deep intensity as he looked at her silently. Xun Qianhuan slowly pulled her hand out from under the covers, then pointed laboriously at Bei Yiwei, her vision blurred: "Xi..." Bei Yiwei stared at Xun Qianhuan silently, motionless, just staring... for a long, long time, a faint smile appeared on his handsome face, so faint it was devoid of emotion... He stared at her for a long, long time, and after staring for so long, he actually felt a little sore... He closed his eyes, her voice still echoing in his ears: "Xi... Xi..." He lowered his head, her voice continuing to echo in his ears: "Xi... don't... ignore me..." After a long while. The wind blew in from the window, fluttering the curtains~ He suddenly opened his eyes, but immediately raised his handsome face, the wet tears ultimately not appearing. His long, strong legs, with heavy steps, walked step by step to the bedside, squatted down, gently took her hand, and looked into her eyes. Xun Qianhuan's vision finally gradually returned to normal, the face before her was still gentle, still handsome, but it was not—Xi! Xun Qianhuan instinctively pulled her hand away from his, muttering to herself, "No, you're not Xi... not..." Just as her small hand was about to slip from his grasp, he grabbed it again. Her hand was slightly cool, but her skin was incredibly smooth. He wanted to hold it tightly, yet he was afraid of hurting her... Bei Yiwei's deep, charming male voice rang out: "Yes, I'm not Ouyang Xi, I'm—Bei, Yi, Wei!" She was slightly stunned. He continued, "It's Bei Yiwei, not some damned 'Xi,' Bei Yiwei, I am Bei Yiwei, remember that." Xun Qianhuan's delicate brows furrowed slightly. Her already weak hand became even more powerless, yet she insisted on pulling it away. She didn't want to be held so firmly by him. "No, no..." He tightened his grip on her hand, preventing her escape, but it hurt her! "It hurts..." Frowning, tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally spilled over. She twisted her wrist with difficulty and helplessness. "It hurts so much..." He seemed completely oblivious to her cries of pain. In his eyes, there was only her expression, desperately trying to escape him—panic, confusion, fear... "Those few days..." he asked softly, "Was this how you got through them?" So panicked, so confused, so afraid... Instantly, the image replayed in his mind—that dilapidated house, covered in cobwebs, thick with dust, bathed in sunlight during the day, yet still lonely and desolate... The dim light at night, the chirping of insects... An overwhelming, boundless fear! She needed warmth, she needed Xi's embrace; only Xi's embrace could make her feel warm and safe… “Xi, where is Xi…” she sobbed, “Xi, I want Xi, where is Xi…” Bei Yiwei closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, they were as dark as a deep lake. He whispered, “Qianhuan… I’m here.” Tears welled up in her eyes, and she sobbed, “Xi, why isn’t Xi coming…” “ Qianhuan…” “ Where is Xi? ” “Find Qianhuan…” “ Waa… Xi!” “Find Qianhuan! ” “…” “Find Qianhuan!! Look at me!!” His shout startled her, leaving her stunned for a long time… tears streamed down her face … Chapter Sixty-Eight “Find Qianhuan, look at me!” His shout startled her, leaving her stunned for a long time… tears streamed down her face… "Don't cry!" Bei Yiwei said domineeringly. "Why should I cry? What did I do wrong? Why are you crying?!"

Xun Qianhuan bit her lip, sobbing uncontrollably as tears streamed down her face. She didn't want to cry, but she just couldn't control herself.

Xi, Xi wouldn't be so mean to her…

“Xi… Xi, where are you… I’m so scared…” Xun Qianhuan sniffled, her eyes blurry with tears.

Bei Yiwei reached out and wiped away her tears. As she continued to cry, he kept wiping them away. He suppressed his voice and said, “Cry, why are you crying? Why are you scared? I’m here. I’m just as good as you. I can protect you better than Ouyang Xi. Why are you crying? Please stop crying.”

“Xi, I want to see you, Xi, sob… Please take me to see Xi, please? Take me to see him… Please…”

Xun Qianhuan bit her lip, her weak body struggling to sit up from the bed. She sat on the bed, but could no longer move, only pleading with Bei Yiwei.

As evening fell and darkness descended, the room grew dim, unable to reflect the tears welling in his eyes. His voice was devoid of emotion as he asked, "Why do you want to see him?"

Xun Qianhuan sobbed, "I don't know, I want to see him, I really want to see him..."

"Why do you want to see him?" Bei Yiwei said, "But I don't want you to see him, what should I do..."

Xun Qianhuan lowered her head, saying, "Please..."

She so desperately wanted to see him, to rush into his arms, to hear his gentlest voice, his tenderest gaze, his gentle comfort. If she saw him, the world would no longer be dark...

He stared at her, saying, "I don't want you to see him."

Xun Qianhuan cried out, her face contorted with grief, "I'll die! I'll die right now!"

He immediately shouted, "Then I'll die with you!"

"I don't want to!" she said. "Who are you? We're nothing to each other, why should you die with me?! No! I don't want to! I hate the Bei family, I despise the Bei family, I want to leave the Bei family!"

Bei Yiwei was stunned, his heart pounding wildly, erratically, as if something was about to leave... leave forever...

"I won't let you leave me!" Bei Yiwei suddenly stood up and hugged her delicate body tightly, as if trying to unite their bodies together, hoping they would never be separated. "I will never allow you to leave me, you are my woman!!"

Xun Qianhuan panicked: "No..."

He hugged her tightly, closed his eyes, and asked, "What can I do to make you not leave me?"

"Please... bring me Xi, please bring me my Xi, please... I beg you..." she sobbed.

He continued, "If I bring him here, you won't leave me, right?"

"Xi..."

"If you see him, you won't cry anymore, right?"

"Hmm... Xi won't let me cry. I won't cry in front of him. Xi said that if I cry, if I'm sad, she'll be even sadder than me..."

Bei Yiwei's expression was blank: "Are you talking about me?"

She pounded his body, crying out, "Bei Yiwei, you're a big bad guy! Why won't you go find Xi for me? You bad guy, you're a big bad guy! I hate you!" She struggled

, desperately pushing him away, saying, "I'll go find him myself. I'm not begging you. Why should I beg you? I can find him myself. As long as I go to find Xi, he'll appear before me immediately. Xi will always be the best to me!"

He grabbed her arm, saying, "Why?"

"Let go of me!"

"Do you like that person that much?"

"Bei Yiwei, I'm telling you to let go of me! Let go of me now!" She used the last bit of strength in her body to try to push him away.

He said, "But, I love you..."

His voice was very soft; she didn't hear what he was saying.

Bei Yiwei stared at her for a moment, then expressionlessly pushed her back onto the bed, forcing her to lie down. He said, "Don't worry, I'll find anyone you want to see, and I'll do everything I can to make sure you do what you want to do." She lay on the

hospital bed, staring blankly at him.

"I'll go find him right now," he said. "But you have to lie still, don't cry, be a good girl and wait for me to come back. Can you do that?"

Her eyes were red, and there were tear tracks on her face. After looking at him for a long time, she nodded.

Chapter Sixty-Nine.
Bei Yiwei walked out of the ward expressionlessly. After a few steps down the corridor, he stopped, leaned against the wall, and tilted his head back. Patients, doctors, and nurses came and went in the corridor... But he still felt lonely, utterly alone, chilled to the bone...
For a long, long time...
He slowly took out his phone and dialed a series of numbers. Although it was the first time he had dialed these numbers, he knew them very well, simply because they were related to him...
"Hello?"
After a moment, Bei Yiwei finally spoke: "This is Bei Yiwei."
There was a pause on the other end, then Ouyang suddenly smiled: "This is really strange, you actually called me! So what is it?"
Bei Yiwei's eyes were empty. He said, "She wants to see you."
"..."
Bei Yiwei's tone was icy: "Xun Qianhuan wants to see you, immediately!"
"Then why doesn't she call me herself?"
"She's sick."
Ouyang Xi feigned surprise: "Why is she sick?"
Bei Yiwei said calmly: "It's a long story, but could you come over now? She... her emotions are a bit unstable..."
"What?"
Hanging up the phone, Bei Yiwei's gaze was like the night, filled with boundless loneliness. His tall, strong body and handsome face were utterly desolate...
Time passed slowly...
leaving only a trace of melancholy in the air...
What did all this mean? Bei Yiwei, do you know how useless you are? You couldn't even protect the one you love, and even lost everything because of it. In the end, all that's left is a terrifying loneliness... What's even more ridiculous is that you brought another man into her life... What does this mean?
The long corridor, the floor illuminated by the lamplight... A handsome man in a beige coat and white casual shoes appeared, his footsteps light and silent on the floor. He stared straight ahead and slowly walked towards them…
Bei Yiwei seemed to sense someone approaching and slowly opened his eyes. His gaze remained as dark as night. He turned his head slightly, watching Ouyang Xi walking down the corridor. All his emotions were hidden beneath his cold face, concealed deep within his heart.
The two handsome men, each with their own unique charm, looked at each other, and the surrounding light seemed to suddenly brighten, a dazzling light that seized all other light.
Ouyang Xi stared at Bei Yiwei: “Where is she?”
“In this ward…” Bei Yiwei said with a strange calmness, “She’s been terrified these past few days; her emotions are very unstable.”
Ouyang Xi glanced at Bei Yiwei and said, "I understand." Then, he walked past Bei Yiwei, stood in front of the hospital room door, gently pushed it open, and slowly walked to the bedside. Xun Qianhuan on the bed had her eyes tightly closed, one small hand outstretched, clutching the blanket. Her breathing was still relatively even. Ouyang Xi reached out and gently placed his hand on her forehead; it was slightly warm. A wave of bitterness surged in his heart, unbearable pain. He frowned, staring at Xun Qianhuan. This situation was all his doing…
He loved her, originally wanting to give her happiness, but now, he had caused her to lie in a hospital bed. A hatred was eroding the last bit of willpower he held in his heart. A voice inside him asked, should he let go?
But if he let go, what did it mean for her to be lying in a hospital bed today?
Qianhuan, I love you, but unintentionally hurting you is more painful than killing myself…
Xun Qianhuan suddenly opened her eyes, gazing at Ouyang Xi… Yang Xi's lips blossomed into a beautiful smile, his eyes crinkling like crescent moons, glistening with tears. "Xi, you're finally here!"
Seeing her weak yet still smiling so deeply, his heart clenched. He sat down by the bed, gazing at her tenderly. "Are you... alright?"
Xun Qianhuan struggled to sit up, then desperately reached out and hugged Ouyang Xi, saying, "With Xi here, with Xi here, that's all that matters..."
Ouyang Xi's gaze flickered. His large hand gently stroked her slender back as he whispered, "Qianhuan..."
Xun Qianhuan adjusted her position, hugging Ouyang Xi even tighter. Only in this way could she feel more at ease, more secure...
Xun Qianhuan closed her eyes, her voice soft and earnest, "Xi, don't leave me... never leave me, okay?"
Ouyang Xi was stunned for a long time before finally saying, "...No, I will never..."
Xun Qianhuan's expression remained serene. Her soft voice was filled with trepidation as she said, "I'm so scared, that little house is so scary... I'm so scared being alone... So, I kept repeating your name in my heart, Xi, Xi... I want to see you quickly, I desperately want to see you... Xi, only you truly care for me, and won't let me be scared, right?"
Ouyang Xi took a deep breath, his arms suddenly tightening, holding her tightly, his fingers digging deep into her hair. His heart pounded heavily, each beat almost unbearable...
He murmured her name, "Qian Huan..."
Outside the room, Bei Yiwei stood quietly by the wall. After a long, long time, he slowly turned around, facing the scene inside the room, watching helplessly as she so depended on another man, as if her love for that man was hopeless... From that moment on, every... Every breath seemed to be tinged with pain; with each breath, all the pain in her body would churn...
Why couldn't she share half of her trust in that man with him? No matter what, he would try his best, he would give it his all, but... at least give him a chance...
Xun Qianhuan leaned against Ouyang Xi's chest, holding him tightly, and whispered, "Xi, you are the only person I trust most. Never leave me, never lie to me..."

Chapter Seventy

Bei Yiwei resolutely said, "I won't allow it!"
Xun Qianhuan regained some strength, and she lifted the covers and got out of bed, saying calmly, "I did ask for your permission."
Bei Yiwei's once-proud eyebrows were now furrowed, wanting to stop her, but she avoided him again and again. He continued, "But you really can't leave the hospital now. You need to stay in the hospital for at least a few more days. If you want to leave, wait until you're better. Why are you making things difficult for your body?"
"In the hospital," Xun Qianhuan turned to look at Bei Yiwei and said, "I don't want to stay here even for a day longer." She
had just gotten out of bed when she felt dizzy, her legs went weak, and her body trembled. The next moment, she couldn't help but sit back down in the chair, feeling very weak, her face pale, and sweat beading on her forehead…
Bei Yiwei instinctively took a step forward, but then stopped. He looked at her and said, "Look at you, you can't even stand up straight now, how are you going to get discharged?"
Xun Qianhuan gave a weak smile and said, "You don't need to worry about that, Xi is here."
Bei Yiwei's dark gaze was as lonely as the deepest silence: "Xun Qianhuan, do you have to do this?"
Xun Qianhuan looked at him and said, "Bei Yiwei, I won't be going back to the Bei family for the next few days. I don't want to go back. In a few days, I think I should properly handle my relationship with your Bei family, and then, I will…" "There's no relationship left."
Bei Yiwei clenched his fists tightly, his fingertips digging into his flesh until they almost drew blood. Only today did Bei Yiwei realize that the pain in his heart was a thousand times greater than physical pain—an unbearable agony...
Relationship...
Yes, what relationship did he and she have left now?
Bei Yiwei, oh Bei Yiwei, you've come to this day, so helpless in front of a woman, so utterly powerless, unable to utter a single word, simply because he had no standing. He hated it so much, hated his helplessness, his powerlessness, his uselessness!
It was as if a pair of demonic claws from the darkest hell were frantically clawing at his bleeding heart...
But all the pain, all the pain, was hidden beneath his calm, handsome face...
Actually, thinking about it further, he didn't even... her brother-in-law ... It wasn't even that. She and he were clearly two parallel lines, yet they met at the wrong time, in the wrong place, and had the wrong relationship. Even that damned feeling was wrong. Everything was wrong, wrong, all wrong!!!
Wrong, wrong, wrong, all wrong… So, where did he go wrong?
Because after everything was lost, he fell in love with her, and then, he was wrong too, wasn't he?”
Now, with a simple sentence, he severed all ties between them. She was free, but he was pushed into hell!
All the resentment, hatred, and helplessness were buried along with the pain. His expression was unbelievably calm, his voice unusually indifferent as he said, “You can't wait to leave me, to sever all ties with me, can you?”
Xun Qianhuan replied without hesitation, “Yes, I…” "I can't wait to leave you, to leave the Bei family. I hate the Bei family, I utterly despise the Bei family, I loathe the wealthy. Because of your feuds, I've become the most innocent pawn. I'm sorry,
but I, Xun Qianhuan, can't enjoy this outwardly glamorous and wealthy life. I'm just a nobody; I only want to be with the people I love and who love me!" Although she knew beforehand that there would be no peaceful days in wealthy families, after this incident, she clearly realized that she, Xun Qianhuan, couldn't afford to play the game of the wealthy.
She only wanted a peaceful life, like before, living with Kiki and Xi. This was undoubtedly the happiest time of her life. However, time has passed, Kiki has left, and she has married. Is it too late for her to realize this now? Kiki has already left her life, and she is powerless to bring Kiki back.She could only do her best to start over with Xi now. Xi had promised not to abandon her...
"Since you say it's a wealthy family, then you should also know that it's not something you can just enter or leave as you please."
Bei Yiwei stared at Xun Qianhuan, his deep gaze seemingly trying to see through her heart, but all he saw was a tightly closed surface...
Xun Qianhuan was slightly taken aback. His childbirth was indeed true, but her mind was made up. No matter how difficult the road ahead, she would persevere. Even if she got hurt, she wouldn't back down, because she knew that no matter what, Xi would be by her side. That was enough!
Xun Qianhuan's gaze was indifferent: "No matter how you handle it, I don't want any connection with the Bei family. Xun Qianhuan is Xun Qianhuan, and the Bei family is the Bei family. We have nothing to do with each other!" "
Xun Qianhuan, what gives you the right to say that?" Bei Yiwei raised an eyebrow, anger rising. Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer and said, "You're already my woman. Do you think you can just sever our relationship like that?"
Xun Qianhuan looked at him and sneered, "Bei Yiwei, this isn't like you."
"What?"
"Bei Yiwei, you've been with quite a few women, haven't you?" Xun Qianhuan stared at him. "So, are you forever entangled with them all?"
Bei Yiwei immediately shouted, "That's completely different!!"
Xun Qianhuan then said, "How is it different? It's the same. There's no feeling between us, is there?" Bei Yiwei
was shocked. "No..."
Xun Qianhuan said, "No matter what happened between us, that's all in the past. The only thing that hasn't changed is that I don't love you... I only love Xi..."
Bei Yiwei was stunned...
She finally said it, she finally said the name of the person she truly loved...
But he didn't feel the pain he expected.
It was because he felt nothing. It was as if, in an instant, he had truly fallen to nothingness—his wealth, status, even his own heart, breath, consciousness, everything—he had lost it all... He had
just come from washing ... Ouyang Xi, emerging from the restroom, walked down the corridor and reached the doorway. Xun Qianhuan's words clearly reached his ears and were imprinted on his heart...
His heart softened like a sponge, and a smile involuntarily appeared on Ouyang Xi's lips as he tried to hide his weakness. He walked into the room...
Xun Qianhuan saw Ouyang Xi enter and was very happy. She said, "Xi, you're finally back! I've decided not to stay in the hospital anymore. Let's go home together!"
Ouyang Xi was taken aback. He looked at her, his expression hesitant, and said, "Qianhuan, are you... going to be discharged now?"
Xun Qianhuan nodded firmly and said, "Now, right away! I'll go home and cook for you! Don't you love my cooking the most? I'll cook for you every day from now on!"
Ouyang Xi sighed and said, "Qianhuan, let's talk about the future later. Right now, you should focus on taking care of your health."
"I don't want to be hospitalized!" Xun Qianhuan said childishly, "I hate the smell of hospitals, I want to go home, Xi, take me home!"
Home, of course, is the home the three of them used to share!
Ouyang Xi's handsome face held a gentle smile as he said, "Qianhuan, don't be stubborn... Be a good girl, you only need to stay in the hospital for a few days..."
A few days... Is a few days really enough?
He can't even take care of himself now, and he gets sick from time to time. He said he went to the bathroom, but actually, he couldn't help going because of the illness. He stumbled into the bathroom, clutching his chest, desperately enduring the pain. He took a painkiller, which temporarily stopped the pain, but no one knows when he will have another attack...
"I don't have any serious illness. Staying in the hospital all day will only make me more irritable. It's much better at home. My mind can calm down, and I'll recover faster, right?" Xun Qianhuan said logically.
Ouyang Xi still insisted, "No."
Xun Qianhuan was a little confused at this point: "Why?"
Ouyang Xi took a deep breath and stared at Xun Qianhuan: "Because I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to take care of you."
Xun Qianhuan was stunned.

Chapter 71

Xun Qianhuan froze.
At that moment, she thought she had misheard. This was the first time Xi had spoken to her like this. It really hurt, it hurt to the core.
She desperately told herself... She tried to reassure herself, "He must have his reasons. Perhaps he's really, really busy, so busy he doesn't even have time to eat, so he can't take care of her at all. He's thinking of her, afraid she'll be lonely at home alone. That must be it..."
But could she really convince herself?
Bei Yiwei then said, "In that case, you don't need to worry. I can take care of her all by myself!"
Ouyang Xi turned and stared at Bei Yiwei, saying, "What right do you have to take care of her?"
Before Bei Yiwei could say anything, Ouyang Xi continued, "Don't forget, now the whole world knows Bei Yixin is dead. From now on, you..." "It's Bei Yiwei, no longer Bei Yixin."
Xun Qianhuan was startled by the voice and asked, "Xi, what are you saying?"
Ouyang Xi looked at Xun Qianhuan, smiled, and gently placed her hand on her shoulder, saying, "Qianhuan, you're free."
Xun Qianhuan stared blankly at Ouyang Xi: "..."
Ouyang Xi said, "Now everyone in the world knows that the real Bei Yixin is dead. Bei Yiwei is Bei Yiwei, no longer Bei Yixin."
Xun Qianhuan was very puzzled and looked at Bei Yiwei: "Why was it suddenly made public?"
Bei Yiwei stood tall in the ward, turned his head away, closed his eyes, and remained silent.
Ouyang Xi said, "Qianhuan, that's not the point!"
Xun Qianhuan frowned, deep in thought, then said, "No, something feels off... Bei Yiwei, tell me what happened?"
Bei Yiwei opened his eyes, staring ahead, and said, "That's not important now."
Xun Qianhuan insisted, "Tell me!"
Bei Yiwei remained silent.
Xun Qianhuan voiced her suspicions, "Is it because of me? I was kidnapped by your uncle, and then..."
Although she couldn't quite grasp the details, Xun Qianhuan had a vague feeling that this was the case...
Bei Yiwei paused, letting out only a faint laugh.
Xun Qianhuan's eyes widened in surprise, "Then you have nothing now?"
"Those things never belonged to me."
Identity, status, money—everything—didn't belong to him. No matter how hard he tried, in the end, he was just a substitute.
Xun Qianhuan's heart sank, overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Although she was kidnapped because of the Bei family, Bei Yiwei had also lost everything because of her. This feeling was incredibly disheartening...
Xun Qianhuan stared at Bei Yiwei, slowly lowered her head, and said, "I'm sorry..."
Bei Yiwei suddenly smiled and said, "Silly girl, did I say this had anything to do with you?"
Ouyang Xi and Xun Qianhuan were both stunned.
Bei Yiwei continued, "Silly girl, this has nothing to do with you. Why are you apologizing? Do you think I would give up such a vast fortune as the Bei family for you?"
Xun Qianhuan asked blankly, "Isn't that right?"
Bei Yiwei smiled, "No, it has nothing to do with you at all."
Ouyang Xi's gaze towards Bei Yiwei deepened suddenly!
She couldn't fathom his thoughts.
He actually wouldn't admit what he'd done? Ha, what was this?
Xun Qianhuan asked, "Then how was I rescued? Xi, was it you?"
Ouyang Xi's eyes were dark, a faint sadness on his face. He said, "Qianhuan, I'm sorry, at the time... I didn't know..."
Xun Qianhuan felt a pang of disappointment, lowered her head, and sighed inwardly, a regret she herself didn't even know. She lay back down on the bed and pulled the covers up...
"Then I should stay in the hospital for a few more days."
News of Bei Yixin's death had spread. If she went home with Ouyang Xi now, it wouldn't be appropriate, no matter how she thought about it.
Ouyang Xi and Bei Yiwei remained silent.
Xun Qianhuan lay on the bed, looked at Bei Yiwei, and said, "Now that Bei Yixin's death has been made public, is there anything I need to do?"
Bei Yiwei smiled at her and said, "No need. Just take good care of yourself. Don't think about anything else. I'll take care of everything."
"Oh."
A cell phone suddenly rang in the ward; it was Bei Yiwei's.
Bei Yiwei felt a little awkward and walked to the door to answer the phone: "Hello..." "
Mr. Bei, something terrible has happened!"
"Something terrible?" Bei Yiwei said calmly, "Okay, don't panic, I'll be right back at the company!"
Bei Yiwei hung up the phone and came back in. Looking at Xun Qianhuan, before he could say anything, Xun Qianhuan couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
Bei Yiwei replied, "Something happened at the company; I have to go back and deal with it."
"Oh." Xun Qianhuan nodded as if she understood, and said, "Then you should go quickly."
Bei Yiwei glanced at the leisurely Ouyang Xi beside him, sighed, and then nodded, saying, "Then I'm leaving. Take good care of yourself."
Bei Yiwei ran out of the ward under their gazes.
Ouyang Xi stared at the door for a long time, her gaze complex and her thoughts deep.
The Bei family was in trouble...
which meant that their plan... was slowly succeeding!

Chapter 72

Only Xun Qianhuan and Ouyang Xi were left in the room. Ouyang Xi stared at the door, remaining silent for a long time, seemingly lost in thought. Xun Qianhuan turned her head, looked at him for a moment, and then said, "Xi, didn't you just say you were very busy lately? If there's anything, you should go too. I can take care of myself in the hospital by myself." "Besides, I don't have any serious illness."
As Xun Qianhuan spoke, Ouyang Xi turned around, stared at her, and said, "No, I've decided. I'll go take care of things first, and then come back to keep you company for a few hours."
It would be better for him to stay here with her than to leave her in this ward while he lay in another hospital, constantly worried.
Xun Qianhuan said, "Xi, don't let me..." and delay important matters.
The next few words were swallowed by Xi's sudden kiss. He gently bit her lip, deepening the kiss...
Then he said to her, "Qianhuan, you are the most important."
Those simple words, like warm sunshine, flowed into her heart, and in that instant, everything became so beautiful.
"But, you're making me uneasy."
"Heh." Ouyang Xi smiled: "What's there to be uneasy about? Everything I do is for our future. If I neglect you at this time, I might hate myself for the rest of my life!"
Xun Qianhuan hurriedly said: "Oh dear, don't say such things. No matter what happens, don't be so hard on yourself, understand? Xi?"
No matter what happens, even after the truth is revealed, Xun Qianhuan still said this to him in her heart, even though she could never understand it.
Ouyang Xi stroked the hair on her forehead and said: "I will try my best to do that!"
Xun Qianhuan smiled.
"Then I'm leaving. Wait for me for a few hours."
"I will wait."
In fact, no matter how long she waited, as long as he had her in his heart, as long as he would come, she would wait and wait...
Ouyang Xi kissed her and left.
After Ouyang Xi left, Xun Qianhuan sat up from the hospital bed, leaned against the headboard, and waited quietly... Time passed second by second...
...Just as Ouyang Xi left the hospital, a phone call came in. It was En Ke on the other end.
"How are you feeling?"
"I was fine when I wasn't having an attack, don't worry." Ouyang Xi quickly got to the point, saying, "How's the situation now?"
En Ke replied, "The information I found in the safe in Bei Yiwei's office is really in our favor. Combined with the preparations I've been secretly making, some shareholders are starting to side with us. I believe it won't be long before the entire Bei Group is under our control!"
Ouyang Xi remained calm: "Don't be too happy yet. Stay calm and continue working on those shareholders who haven't yet shown any interest in us! This time, we can only succeed, failure is not an option!"
"Understood, I'll arrange for people to do it!"
"Yes, now is a time of unrest within the Bei Group. We should act now and seize this opportunity! Otherwise, all our previous efforts will be in vain!"
"Heh, I know all that, Xi. When did you become so long-winded? I know these are extraordinary times, and I won't let my guard down, so don't worry," Enke said. "Where are you going now? Back to the hospital?"
Ouyang Xi said, "I have no mind to go back to the hospital. I told you I'm fine, perfectly fine. I have to go back to the company!"
"The company's affairs," Enke said, "You can leave them to us without worry!"
"Of course I trust you," Ouyang Xi smiled and said, "But I still have to go and see her, just to take care of what needs to be done. I need to come back to be with Qianhuan later; I'm worried about her being alone in the hospital."
"Don't just think about her," Enke reminded her. "Take better care of your health; it can't get any worse!"
"Why are you being so long-winded now?"
Enke's voice suddenly became urgent. "Bei Yiwei is here!""I can't even ramble on now, contact me if you need anything!"
Enke hurriedly hung up the phone, and Ouyang Xi followed suit, gripping the steering wheel and speeding towards "Tianhua."
Sure enough, less than a few hours later, Ouyang Xi returned to the hospital. Xun Qianhuan was still sitting on the hospital bed. Seeing Ouyang Xi's arrival, she smiled and asked, "Are you done with your work?"
Ouyang Xi took off her coat and put it aside. She walked to the bedside table, poured herself a glass of water, and looked at Xun Qianhuan with affection, saying, "Now I can stay with you all the time. Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Xun Qianhuan smiled and said, "Look at me, sitting on this hospital bed, what can I do? But as long as Xi is with me, I'm happy."
Ouyang Xi habitually patted her head and said, "What an easily satisfied silly girl!"
Xun Qianhuan said confidently, "Knowing I'm so easily satisfied, then you're not allowed to refuse even this small request of mine in the future, understand?"
Ouyang Xi nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, ma'am!"
Xun Qianhuan, suddenly intrigued, continued, "Also, you're not allowed to say anything that makes me sad anymore. Do you know how sad I was when you said you didn't have time to take care of me? Xi is so mean!"
Ouyang Xi raised both hands to show her sincerity and said, "Okay, I was wrong, really wrong, I'll never dare to do it again!"

Chapter 73:

Ouyang Xi went out to buy food for Xun Qianhuan, who was bored by herself, so she casually... She picked up her phone, only to find it was off. Bored, she turned it on, but before she could even check the dozens of missed calls, the phone rang incessantly.
Xun Qianhuan saw it was her home phone and answered without thinking, "Mom..."
Her mother's voice, full of emotion, came through the line: "Qianhuan, you finally answered! What happened to you these past few days? We couldn't get through, and we were so worried!" Xun Qianhuan felt
a pang of guilt and said, "Mom, I'm sorry... I went out of town these past few days... and I forgot my phone."
"You went out of town?" Xun's mother asked suspiciously. "What happened to Bei Yixin? How could he just die like that? And from a sudden illness!"
Xun Qianhuan whispered, "So you all knew..."
How could you not know? Xun's mother exaggeratedly said, "The whole world knows now that the news is out!"
Xun Qianhuan stammered, "No way..."
If Ouyang Xi hadn't mentioned it today, she wouldn't have known anything.
Xun's mother continued, "Sigh, our Qianhuan is really unlucky... By the way, how did Bei Yixin die? Were you by his side when he died?"
"Well... actually, I don't know either... I went out of town..."
Her heart pounded. Although it wasn't the first time she had lied to her mother, she was still unusually nervous.
"Are you alright?" Xun's mother murmured, "Child, it's all our fault. If we hadn't forced you to marry Bei Yixin, you wouldn't be in this situation today..."
Xun Qianhuan felt a pang of guilt. She was perfectly fine, yet her family had worried so much. She felt incredibly ashamed and said, "Mom, I'm fine, I'm really fine. Don't worry, Dad!" "
Where are you now?"
"I..." Xun Qianhuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'm on my way back to the Bei family."
"Oh..." Xun's mother said, "Actually... Qianhuan, don't be too sad about things turning out this way. If you don't want to stay in the Bei family anymore... our door is always open for you!" "
Mom, we'll talk about the future later..." She
was taking it one step at a time now, and she had no intention of going back to the Bei family; it was pointless.
"Alright, now we should be handling his funeral arrangements, shouldn't we?" Xun's mother sighed, "How could something like this happen? A perfectly healthy person just died like that, how can anyone accept it!"
"The dead can't be brought back to life, Mom, don't be too sad..."
The mother said, "Child, why are you the one comforting me? You're the one who needs comforting the most!"
"I told you I'm fine, Mom, don't worry, don't worry, I'm perfectly fine, both mentally and physically!"
"Qianhuan..."
Xun Qianhuan suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Mom, Xintong went abroad, right?"
Her mother said, "Isn't today the day he was supposed to leave? With this incident, how could he possibly be in the mood to go abroad? He dropped his luggage and ran out to look for you, and he hasn't come home yet!"
Xun Qianhuan was shocked: "How could this happen?! Mom, why didn't you stop him then?"
Her mother said, "How could we stop him? Besides, it's only natural for a younger brother to care about his older sister. Now that something like this has happened, even if he goes abroad, how can he concentrate on his studies?"
Xun Qianhuan was on the verge of tears: "Then all my efforts were wasted..."
Her mother comforted her: "We'll talk about it after he goes abroad. It's not like he can't go later just because he didn't go now." Xun
Qianhuan really wanted to cry, but she tried hard to hold back, keeping her voice calm, and said, "Mom, I'm hanging up now."
"Alright then!" Xun's mother agreed, saying, "Qianhuan, take good care of yourself, don't be too sad, remember, no matter what happens, you still have your parents and Xintong."
Xun Qianhuan was moved and said, "I know."
"Bye!"
"Mom, goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Xun Qianhuan sat on the bed in frustration, her brows furrowed.
Why was it so troublesome? Her life was a mess, why had it become so complicated?
Xun Xintong, what else do you want? Chapter
74, December

3rd:

Ouyang Xi walked in carrying two lunchboxes: "What's wrong? Why are you spacing out?"

Xun Qianhuan gently raised her head, looked at Ouyang Xi, and said with a slight smile, "My mom just called."

"Oh?" Ouyang Xi said, "Does your family also know about Bei Yixin's death?"

Xun Qianhuan smiled bitterly, "Think about it, how many people don't know now? Let alone my family."

Ouyang Xi placed the lunchbox on the cabinet, carefully opened it, and said, "Think about it, your family must be very worried about you, right?" Ouyang Xi suddenly smiled, a deep smile, and said, "Especially your strange younger brother."

Xun Qianhuan looked troubled and said, "That's what bothers me. I originally wanted him to study abroad. His plane ticket was today, but after what happened today, he's naturally

staying!"

Ouyang Xi put the lunchbox aside, sat down on the edge of the hospital bed, hugged Xun Qianhuan, and said, "Don't be too troubled. After all, he's your brother. He shouldn't do anything too..."

She only got halfway through her sentence before Xun Qianhuan became wary, immediately shut her mouth, turned her head away, and dared not look Ouyang Xi in the eye.Her heart pounded.

Ouyang Xi stared intently at Xun Qianhuan, asking, "What did you say?"

Xun Qianhuan hesitated, "I..."

In that instant, Ouyang Xi's expression was complex and unpredictable, but it calmed down in the next moment, though her heart clenched. He remained calm, saying nothing

, only tightening his grip on her, pulling her into his arms, their bodies warming each other.

Xun Qianhuan lowered her head and said, "Sometimes, I wish I weren't me..."

Ouyang Xi smiled and said, "If you're not you, then who are you? Okay, Qianhuan, no matter what happens, to me, you are you, you are Xun Qianhuan! I love

you!"

Xun Qianhuan felt an indescribable joy, her head bowed low, and said, "Really, how come I'm getting more and more pathetic? I really hate this cowardly version of myself. If I could, I'd

really like to find a hole to crawl into!"

"But I like it." Ouyang Xi turned her body around to face her and said, "You like this fill me with a protective instinct, something a real man should do."

Xun Qianhuan glanced at him sideways: "So, you don't like the old me anymore?"

She was certain that her current weakness was only temporary; one day, she would return to the Xun Qianhuan she once was! To be as carefree as possible!

Ouyang Xi felt a little wronged and said, "No way! When I first started liking you, I never imagined you had such a feminine side!"

"So, I wasn't feminine before?"

Ouyang Xi frowned and said, "Qianhuan, are you deliberately messing with me?"

"If it weren't true, how could I mess with you?" "If

you're deliberately messing with me, what else can I say?"

Xun Qianhuan looked at Ouyang Xi, her face lighting up with a smile, and said, "So you really like me?" Ouyang Xi said, "Heaven and earth can bear witness!"

"So when I asked you before if you were in love with me, you wouldn't admit it even if you died?"

Ouyang Xi pouted. "Back then, I was..."

Xun Qianhuan asked with interest, "What?"

Ouyang Xi's handsome face flushed slightly. He said, "I was afraid that if I confessed my feelings to you, you would feel embarrassed and leave me..."

Xun Qianhuan chuckled and pinched his cheek. "Xi is quite cute!"

Ouyang Xi's features almost scrunched up. He said, "No, don't call me cute anymore. It hurts a man's pride, you know?"

Xun Qianhuan blinked, feigning innocence. "Really?"

Ouyang Xi lowered his head and kissed her delicate lips. "Absolutely!"

"Men are so petty." Xun Qianhuan wasn't going to continue the topic. She glanced at the open lunchbox and said, "Hehe, looking at the food, I'm actually a little hungry."

"I'm trying to make the dishes lighter. You definitely won't be able to eat anything too greasy in the hospital." Ouyang Xi brought out the food from the cabinet.

Xun Qianhuan smelled the food and said, "No matter what it is, I'll eat a lot and try to get discharged as soon as possible! Then, I'll go home with Xi!"

Suddenly, she felt that saying those last few words made her feel so happy.

"Okay, you must eat a lot." Ouyang Xi picked up the chopsticks and said, "I'll feed you."

Xun Qianhuan quickly shook her head, "I'm not used to it."

Ouyang Xi said, "You're always like this, but I really want to feed you. Do you know how happy it is to feed the woman you love?"

Hearing Ouyang Xi say this, Xun Qianhuan's heart softened, and she could only say, "Okay, you can feed me then. It's perfect, I'm too lazy to do it myself. But you have to remember, you'll only spoil me if you do this. If I develop bad habits

later , you'll suffer." "You can't regret it then,"

Ouyang Xi said with a beaming smile. "Why not?"

After dinner, the two watched TV together in the ward. The TV's sound filled the room, creating a lively atmosphere. Xun Qianhuan's expression shifted between laughter and silence, sometimes even showing sadness due to

the plot . Ouyang Xi, however, wasn't really focused on the TV; most of her attention was on Xun Qianhuan, her gaze frequently fixed on her,

a warm feeling welling up inside her...

Actually, this was also... A kind of happiness, a rare and precious happiness. His demands weren't high, nor were they low; he only hoped to accompany her on her journey...

Little did he know, many hardships still awaited her in the future...

The night grew deeper. She flipped through channels with the remote, and after a while, Xun Qianhuan felt sleepy. She blinked her heavy eyelids and lazily said, "Xi, I'm sleepy."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Xi immediately got up and turned off the TV. Then she went to the bedside and took out the pillow behind her, but... She didn't lie down, but just looked at him and asked, "Where will you sleep?" Ouyang Xi smiled and said

, "I'll just sit in the chair, or lie down on the edge of the bed, I can fall asleep just the same." Xun Qianhuan shook her head and said, "No." Ouyang Xi smiled and said, "Girl, what's wrong?" Xun Qianhuan moved to the side, making room for him on the bed, and said, "I want you to sleep next to me." Ouyang Xi glanced at the single hospital bed, touched his forehead, and realized this was a problem. Although he wasn't fat, he was very tall... how could he sleep there? "Maybe we shouldn't?" Xun Qianhuan shook her head coquettishly, "Then I won't be able to sleep tonight." "I'll stay by your side." "I want Xi to hold me while I sleep, otherwise I won't sleep!" Ouyang Xi gazed at Xun Qianhuan, breathed out, took off his outer clothes, and slipped into the small quilt. Xun Qianhuan immediately snuggled into his arms, feeling warm. His body temperature, his chest, even his heartbeat, were so familiar, so familiar that she had a strange feeling that she and he were one, inseparable, and that they would just keep going, and love would never end. Ouyang Xi touched her forehead intentionally or unintentionally and said, "Heh, Qianhuan, you seem to have gotten rid of your fever." "Yes, I'm actually fine. I was just scared. I can be discharged tomorrow." Ouyang Xi held her tightly, their embrace reducing the space on the bed. He said, "Your fever is gone, but I'm burning up..." Xun Qianhuan, nestled in his arms, didn't understand his meaning. She lightly punched his chest as punishment, but to her surprise, he actually cried out softly, as if in real pain. "Stop pretending," Xun Qianhuan said dismissively, "I'm talking about serious matters. I really am being discharged tomorrow and going home. Don't tell me you don't have time to take care of me; I can take care of myself!" She was trying hard not to think about the Bei family, trying to ignore them and Bei Yiwei... Ouyang Xi's expression was gentle. He said, "Okay, we'll go home tomorrow, our home." Xun Qianhuan finally smiled happily, and then, with joy, gradually fell asleep... The next day...Ouyang Xi indeed completed the discharge procedures for Xun Qianhuan, and after tidying up a bit, the two prepared to leave the hospital. Before leaving, Xun Qianhuan hesitated and stopped, looking at the empty ward, muttering to herself, "Should I tell Bei Yiwei?" Ouyang Xi turned around, looked at Xun Qianhuan, and remained silent. Feeling Ouyang Xi's gaze, Xun Qianhuan looked at her, smiled, and said, "I'll send him a text message later." Stepping out of the hospital, she felt a sense of relief; it was so good not to smell the medicine in the hospital. Xun Qianhuan remarked, "I really admire those doctors and nurses; they can actually work here." Ouyang Xi smiled, "Isn't there a saying that they're used to it? Since they can do this job, they must be used to this medicine smell. If one day they can't smell it anymore..."

"You might not be used to this kind of medicine."

Xun Qianhuan's eyes darted around. "Really?"

"I was just kidding."

Xun Qianhuan glared at him. "You naughty Xi!"

Just then, a taxi stopped in front of them. Xun Qianhuan opened the door and got in. Ouyang Xi followed.

The taxi drove along familiar roads, and familiar scenery flashed by outside the window. Xun Qianhuan liked to look at the scenery outside the car window when she was in a car. No matter how fast it went, she

always hoped that her eyes could catch it... However, like some things in life, no matter how much you want to understand them, they always disappear even faster...

Xun Qianhuan's mood suddenly became a little melancholy.

Suddenly, when the taxi reached an ordinary street intersection, it could no longer move. There were many cars and people blocking the way, mainly because of

the presence of a police car.

Xun Qianhuan asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

The driver opened the window, stuck his head out, and said, " "It looks like they're arresting a drug dealer."

Xun Qianhuan responded casually, "Oh..."

Ouyang Xi crossed her arms, staring straight ahead, expressionless.

A crowd had gathered around the police car, and several security personnel were busy at work. The crowd had to disperse, which conveniently opened a view for Xun Qianhuan, allowing her to see

this scene: several armed police officers stood on both sides, and several men in plainclothes were being handcuffed by two officers in crisp, serious uniforms, walking towards

the police car. But what truly captured Xun Qianhuan's attention was one of the criminals—Tang Qilong!

Chapter 75

Xun Qianhuan hurriedly opened the car door and, to Ouyang Xi's surprise, jumped out. Ouyang Xi immediately followed, catching up to her and grabbing her arm, saying, "What are you doing?"

Xun Qianhuan had no choice but to turn around and say, "I need to ask Tang Qilong where Koko is?!"

"You can't go," Ouyang Xi said warily. "Tang Qilong is a drug offender now, and he's been arrested by the police. Don't go and get yourself into trouble!"

Xun Qianhuan's emotions were in turmoil. She said, "What about Koko? What about Koko? Tang Qilong is arrested, Koko's situation must be terrible right now, Xi, I'm really worried about her!"

Ouyang Xi stared at Xun Qianhuan, pulled her into her arms, and said, "Don't worry too much. Koko has always been very smart and shrewd. Since the police only arrested Tang Qilong, it

means she's alright."

"Will she really be alright?"

Ouyang Xi raised her hand, tucking a strand of hair that had fallen across her face behind her ear, and said, "Really, believe me, and believe in Koko. She'll be fine."

Xun Qianhuan looked up at Ouyang Xi and asked seriously, "Now that Koko is free, do you think she'll come looking for us?"

"We should respect her choice," Ouyang Xi smiled and said, "It's the best thing that she's back. If she chooses to leave, there's nothing we can do, right? Everyone has

their own life to live."

"But we were doing just fine before,"

Ouyang Xi hugged Xun Qianhuan tightly and sighed, "But I don't want to live that life anymore... I just want to be with you, just the two of us,

living ..."

Although he knew it was a very luxurious idea...

"You said it, don't go back on your word!"

Ouyang Xi looked at Xun Qianhuan's ambiguous smile and said, "Yes, ma'am!"

Xun Qianhuan's tone suddenly changed again: "But I still hope Koko can come back, because she is, after all, my only friend."

"Alright, alright, from now on, whether you have friends or not, I will never let you feel lonely." Ouyang Xi habitually kissed her cheek.

At this moment, the driver, quite oblivious, honked the horn, signaling that the two could get in and drive off.

The two finally arrived home. Unexpectedly, a person was standing at the door, a young figure, dressed in white, tall and slender, leaning against the wall by the door, his handsome face slightly lowered.

Xun Qianhuan was somewhat surprised and uneasy, but she couldn't avoid it, so she softly called out, "Xin Tong."

Xun Xin Tong suddenly opened his eyes, looked up at Xun Qianhuan, his handsome face full of joy. Before Xun Qianhuan could react, he quickly ran over, opened his arms and hugged

her, saying, "Sister, sister, it's so good, I finally found you, do you know how worried I was..."

Xun Qianhuan felt uncomfortable all over, her mind occasionally... Recalling that day, that unbearable sexual encounter still cast a shadow in her heart, one that she couldn't erase.

She just felt it was too absurd; how could someone do such a thing? Perhaps Xin Tong was still immature, but she was different; she was the older sister. How could she, as the older sister, be the one who harmed

her younger brother ?

Xun Xin Tong hugged her tightly, making it hard for her to breathe, and even speaking was difficult: "Xin Tong, calm down..."

Ouyang Xi couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stepped forward, grabbed Xun Xin Tong, and forced her to release Xun Qian Huan, saying, "You hurt your sister!"

Xun Xin Tong ignored him, staring intently at Xun Qian Huan, and said, "I'm sorry, I was a little too excited just now. I didn't mean to hurt you."

Xun Qian Huan moved her arms, seeing Xun Xin Tong's remorse, and couldn't bear it anymore, saying, "I'm fine. What brings you here today?"

"I was just worried about you..."

Xun Qianhuan smiled and said, "I'm perfectly fine now, don't worry too much. If nothing's wrong..."

Xun Qianhuan paused, looking at Xun Xintong, believing he would understand her meaning.

Xun Xintong was clearly reluctant, saying, "Sister, I finally found you, I want to spend more time with you."

Hearing Xun Xintong say this, Xun Qianhuan remembered something and asked, "Xintong, did you go home yesterday?"

"...No."

Xun Qianhuan was surprised: "Then you stayed here all night?"

Xun Xintong said calmly, "Yes."

Xun Qianhuan frowned slightly, feeling a little sad: "You silly girl, it's so cold outside, and you stayed here all night. What if you got sick? How sad would Mom and Dad be? You didn't come home all night..."

"How worried must Mom and Dad be?"

Xun Xintong's handsome face was tinged with a faint sorrow as he said, "But if I hadn't waited for you, I would have gone crazy."

Xun Qianhuan was stunned, then said helplessly, "I think you're already crazy. How can you make people worry so much?"

Xun Xintong suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry for making you worry, but now that I see you're alright, I feel much better. I can go home now."

He glanced at Ouyang Xi behind Xun Qianhuan, but didn't speak to him. He only said "Goodbye" to Xun Qianhuan and then turned and left. Looking at his back, he was so young

, yet there was always a sense of sadness about him. Bathed in sunlight, he couldn't wash away that faint shadow...

Chapter Seventy-Six *Inheritance

Actually, for a very long time after that day, Kiki never appeared in Xun Qianhuan and Ouyang Xi's lives again, as if she had evaporated into thin air, disappearing without a trace...

And some memories, even if they remain in the mind, will be buried deeper and deeper with time. Unless you open them, they will only remain in the deepest part of your memory. So, whether Kiki exists or not will gradually be replaced by habit.

How long has it been since I've been back in this house? It had only been a month or two, but it felt like an eternity to Xun Qianhuan. Returning, an overwhelming sense of familiarity washed over her, seeping into her very being, seeping into every pore… This feeling was strangely pleasant and peaceful…

Xun Qianhuan sprawled out on the large Simmons mattress, a familiar scent filling her nostrils. She inhaled, a smile playing on her lips, and said, “Still smells so good.”

Xun Qianhuan murmured, “Xi…”

Ouyang Xi’s fingers brushed through her hair, responding, “Hmm?”

Xun Qianhuan closed her eyes, smiling quietly, “Xi…”

Ouyang Xi responded again, “Yes, I’m here.”

Xun Qianhuan smiled, saying, “I want to call you that forever.”

Ouyang Xi’s fingers continued to move across her skin, the soft, smooth feeling so wonderful…

“Okay.”

“Won’t you get annoyed?”

“No, never.”

“Why are you so sure?”

“Because it’s you…”

Xun Qianhuan smiled, “Xi is the best at sweet talk.”

"Besides sweet talk, what else?"

Ouyang Xi's hand slid to her neck...

Xun Qianhuan kept her eyes closed and said, "I can't think of anything you're best at right now."

Ouyang Xi hooked his fingers around one of the buttons on her chest, gently unbuttoning it, one, two, three...

He said, "I'm also best at loving you, aren't I?"

Xun Qianhuan opened her eyes defiantly: "No, Xi is the worst!"

"How am I bad?"

Ouyang Xi asked softly, his body slowly turning over, straddling her, lifting her unbuttoned blouse, her beautiful skin filling his vision. Just looking at her, his body clearly aroused. His hand continued to caress her skin, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "It seems I can't live without you for the rest of my life."

Xun Qianhuan pretended to be displeased: "Do you want to leave?"

Ouyang Xi was unwilling, saying, "Heaven and earth bear witness, I would never dare to think that."

“Oh,” Xun Qianhuan seemed to understand the meaning behind his words, and said, “So you didn’t not want to think about it, but you dared not think about it. You bad guy, am I that scary?”

Ouyang Xi knew that she was deliberately misinterpreting his meaning, but he still explained very urgently, “How could I dare to think about such a thing? If I dared to think like that, then my life would end here. Without you, what meaning would my life have?”

Yes, he could not find any meaning to live. This was a dirty and extremely dark world. Because of her existence, he had light, he had a reason to live, and he had fighting spirit.

Hearing his words, Xun Qianhuan felt a bitter taste welling up in her heart. She felt a deep ache and heartache. Life was so unpredictable. Although she hoped to be with him forever, life had to go on even without him… Xun Qianhuan

instinctively raised her hand to cover his mouth, whispering, “Xi, don’t say that… it hurts me.”

Ouyang Xi cleverly held her wrist, gently biting her finger and kissing it softly, circling it with his tongue. His gaze was deep and affectionate, a faint smile in his eyes.

Xun Qianhuan’s body began to soften. She closed her eyes, letting him do as he pleased. He always cherished her, treating her like a priceless treasure. This feeling was indescribably blissful.

Ouyang Xi released her fingers and began to caress her firm breasts, kissing their softness as he unhooked her bra. Once the bra was off, he took her clitoris into his mouth, kissing and sucking on it alternately, stimulating her body…

“Huan…I missed you so much…”

Xun Qianhuan wrapped her arms around Ouyang Xi’s neck, opening her alluring eyes, and said, “Me too…”

Ouyang Xi smiled, leaning down to kiss her lips, their lips entwined in a passionate kiss…

After a long, passionate kiss, their clothes fell to the floor, and their naked bodies rolled on the bed…

In the instant his long body penetrated her, a soul-stirring moan filled the bedroom, neither too big nor too small, a room filled with the scent of spring…

Desire, like a demonic beast, surged through her flower path again and again. He trembled beneath her, her breasts pulsating rhythmically. The 'slapping' sounds of fluids from her vulva mingled with her moans and his low growls, creating a wondrous melody…

Each orgasm nearly brought her to the peak of indescribable pleasure… Just as she

was preparing for her final climax, her phone rang inconveniently beside the bed…

He continued thrusting into her, her body beneath him yielding, the phone ringing relentlessly…

“Mmm…” His thrusts seemed to pierce her throat, her moans uncontrollable, ringing repeatedly.

The phone continued to ring, over and over…

“Xi, stop for a moment, ah…” Xun Qianhuan managed to say, “The phone, I need to answer it…”

Ouyang Xi frowned unhappily, his thrusts continuing, saying, “Wait a minute, just a minute, you can call back later, right?”

Later, later, how long was “later”? What if something urgent happened?

The phone was ringing incessantly.

Xun Qianhuan pulled one arm out and fumbled around on the bed, finally finding the phone. But suddenly, with a violent thrust from Ouyang Xi, the phone she had just picked up fell back onto the bed. Her hand unconsciously pressed against the phone, without her noticing…

A climax arrived, her lower body contracted and spasmed violently, and she moaned, “Ah…”

Ouyang Xi was covered in sweat. After the climax, he finally withdrew from her body and lay down beside her, continuing to enjoy the lingering pleasure…

After a while, when Xun Qianhuan finally caught her breath, she opened her eyes and reached for the now silent phone. Picking it up, Xun Qianhuan was shocked to find that the call was actually connected!

Good heavens!!!

Xun Qianhuan, trembling, held the phone to her ear, mustered her courage, and tentatively asked, "Hello?"

"Your husband died just two days ago, and less than three days later you're having sex with another man? Xun Qianhuan, are you that desperate for a man?"

After a barrage of sarcastic remarks, Xun Qianhuan was both angry and certain of the caller's identity. She coldly replied, "That depends on what kind of man."

Bei Yiwei was furious: "You...you're that shameless?"

"Bei Yiwei, watch your mouth! What right do you have to interfere in my private life?"

"Then, isn't my brother's inheritance also part of your private life?"

Xun Qianhuan raised an eyebrow: "What did you say?"

Bei Yiwei said calmly, "If you want that inheritance, come to the Bei family tomorrow at noon."

Chapter 77

Xun Qianhuan's smooth skin was bathed in the light, her gaze was blank, and she didn't react for a moment. Then the phone beeped and hung up.

Two naked bodies lay flat on the bed, which was covered with traces of lovemaking. Now, everything was quiet, except for their breathing.

This was really embarrassing. During their lovemaking, the person on the other end of the phone could hear everything clearly. Bei Yiwei's call was too ill-timed. Why did he have to call now of all times?

Although she didn't care, she was still a little embarrassed inside.

Ouyang Xi turned to her and kissed her skin, softly asking, "Bei Yiwei?"

Xun Qianhuan turned her head, gazing at his handsome face, and said, "He said I also have a share in Bei Yixin's inheritance."

Ouyang Xi smiled, "You're Bei Yixin's nominal wife, so of course you have inheritance rights. But this is a good thing; it's rare that Bei Yiwei is willing to let the inheritance fall into your hands." Xun Qianhuan pouted

, saying, "What do you mean, willing or not? Isn't this what I deserve?"

Ouyang Xi propped his head up with one hand, his smile deep, and said, "That's true, but... if Bei Yiwei intentionally prevents you from getting that inheritance, do you think you'd still have a chance to get it?" Xun Qianhuan's

eyes darted around, and she said, "So, Bei Yiwei actually did a good deed this time?"

Ouyang Xi chuckled, "I guess so..."

Bei Yiwei foolishly did a good deed; wasn't that exactly what he wanted?

Xun Qianhuan stared at him and asked, "Tell me, should I go tomorrow?"

Ouyang Xi replied seriously, "Go, why wouldn't you go? It's such a good thing, going wouldn't be a waste. Besides, you've been with the Bei family for so long, wasn't it all for that inheritance?"

That was indeed her original purpose... Xun Qianhuan pursed her lips and said, "But... I'm not that interested in that inheritance anymore..."

"What's wrong?"

Xun Qianhuan gently placed her slender hand on Ouyang Xi's body, closing the distance between them, and said, "If I take that inheritance, my relationship with the Bei family will still be entangled... I want to sever ties with the Bei family..."

Ouyang Xi hugged her and said, "Qianhuan, don't be so silly. Even if you don't take that inheritance, your relationship with the Bei family will still be like this, like ink stains that can't be washed off. Unless you use extreme measures..."

Xun Qianhuan was intrigued: "Extreme measures?"

Ouyang Xi looked at her curious expression and couldn't help but smile, saying, "It's not time to resort to extreme measures yet."

"Then when will it be time to 'reluctantly' use any extreme measures?"

"Qianhuan, you really have a lot of questions." He ruffled her hair and said, "Don't think so much. Tomorrow, just relax and collect your inheritance. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Are you really okay with me going to the Bei family?" Xun Qianhuan teased, "What if I don't come back?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ouyang Xi tapped her nose and said, "If you don't come back, I'll storm into the Bei family and take you back."

"Um...you sound like a bandit king."

"Then you'll be my bandit queen."

"No way, you barbarian." "

So, do you want me or not?"

"No..."

"You try."

……………………………………………………

Ouyang Xi dropped Xun Qianhuan off at the Bei family villa. Xun Qianhuan got out of the car, and Ouyang Xi said he had some things to do and would call him to pick her up when she was done. Xun Qianhuan agreed and walked into the Bei family's gate.

"Young Madam." The maid, Adan, greeted her respectfully.

Xun Qianhuan looked at her and asked, "Where's Bei Yiwei?"

"Young Master is waiting for you in the living room."

"Oh." Xun Qianhuan responded, saying, "Then I'll go myself. You go ahead and do your work."

"Yes."

After Adan withdrew, Xun Qianhuan walked towards the living room.

This place was too magnificent, as luxurious as a dream. Xun Qianhuan felt a sense of dizziness. She hoped this dream would end soon; she preferred a simple and comfortable life. This place was indeed luxurious, but she couldn't find the feeling she was looking for.

Bei Yiwei remained as cold and aloof as ever. Sitting on the sofa, his sharp gaze fixed on Xun Qianhuan as she entered the living room.

Xun Qianhuan paused, staring at Bei Yiwei, her body stiffening. She stood there, speechless for a long time.

"You've arrived."

Xun Qianhuan nodded, still stiff in place, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Come and sit down." Bei Yiwei gestured for her to sit on the sofa beside him.

Xun Qianhuan slowly walked over, sat down gently, and after a moment, said, "Yesterday..."

Bei Yiwei calmly replied, "Attorney Jiang will be here at two o'clock this afternoon. We'll discuss the inheritance then."

Xun Qianhuan slowly uttered an "Oh..."

Her mind was somewhat chaotic, Xun Qianhuan's expression slightly absent-minded, her gaze unfocused.

However, Bei Yiwei's gaze was undisguisedly fixed on her, making her very uncomfortable. She could only say, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room first, pack my things, and after settling the inheritance matters, I'll be leaving the Bei family for a while."

As for how long that "a while" would be, only God knew.

Before Bei Yiwei could say anything, Xun Qianhuan picked up her bag and went upstairs to the bedroom.

Pushing open the door, she felt a moment of dizziness, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately went in and closed the door slightly.

She tossed her bag aside, then onto the large bed, her gaze sweeping across the bedroom. She got out of bed and went to the wardrobe, leaning lazily against it. Her slender hands searched through the clothes, picking out her favorites and tossing them onto the bed, one by one, until she felt she had enough. Returning to the bed, she picked up the clothes again, admiring her reflection in the mirror. After a few times, she realized she was thirsty. Luckily, there was water on the desk, so she didn't have to go downstairs. Xun Qianhuan picked up a cup, intending to gulp it down, but she drank too quickly, coughing repeatedly and spilling water on herself. Xun Qianhuan frowned. Why drink so fast?

Once the coughing stopped, she found a dress among the clothes, tried it on, and, finding it nice,

carefully took off her wet clothes to change.

Xun Qianhuan vaguely felt her body temperature gradually rising. Even taking off her outer clothes couldn't relieve the heat. Her breathing was shallow and irregular. Xun Qianhuan leaned uncomfortably against the wall. The cool wall did offer her a moment of relief, but then her body temperature continued to soar, causing her immense torment…

Xun Qianhuan was somewhat aware of her condition; this desire came on fiercely and was extremely strange…

Could it be that she had truly become a lustful woman?

Her slender hand unconsciously caressed her body, moving downwards until it reached her lower abdomen… further down…

Xun Qianhuan groaned, “Xi…”

The door was suddenly flung open with a bang, and Bei Yiwei's cold, handsome voice rang out from the doorway. His sharp gaze swept across the room, glancing at Xun Qianhuan before quickly looking at the glass of water on the table. He immediately said, "You drank that water?!"

Water, damn it, he was so angry he'd put drugs in it. He'd originally intended to get revenge on her, but by the time he realized it and tried to stop her, it seemed too late… the drugs had already been drunk.

Xun Qianhuan struggled to speak, "You put drugs in the water?"

Bei Yiwei's expression was unnatural. He turned his head away, cursing under his breath, "Damn it!"

Xun Qianhuan glared at Bei Yiwei, "Bei Yiwei, you bastard!"

Even with all her resentment and anger, these were far less than the desire within her. Looking at him only made her feel worse, both physically and... emotionally...

Bei Yiwei didn't react to Xun Qianhuan's angry outburst, but suddenly lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry."

Xun Qianhuan looked at Bei Yiwei painfully, clenching her fists to stiffen her body. However, that desire was insatiable, active within her...

Xun Qianhuan turned her head away, not allowing herself to look at the man in front of her. Pressing against the wall, she frowned tightly, gritting her teeth to endure, but ultimately couldn't control the moan that escaped her lips...

"Hmm..."

Bei Yiwei closed his eyes. It was utterly absurd! How could he have done such a thing!

Xun Qianhuan felt an overwhelming urge to cry, like a child adrift at sea, desperately searching for something to lean on: "Xi..."

Bei Yiwei suddenly opened his sharp eyes, staring intently at Xun Qianhuan. His heart ached sharply. After a moment, he said, "Is he all you can think of right now?"

"Xi..."

As long as she called out Xi's name, she could distract herself. How could she submit to Bei Yiwei?

"Xi..."

Bei Yiwei walked up to her, coldly saying, "No matter how many times you call his name now, he won't come to be your antidote! Because he doesn't even know! Why waste your breath?"

With her last shred of courage, Xun Qianhuan tried to push him away: "Get away!"

But instead of pushing him away, her hand, upon touching his body, ignited like a raging fire meeting dry tinder, becoming uncontrollable.

Bei Yiwei stood motionless, staring intently at Xun Qianhuan.

Xun Qianhuan didn't push him away anymore. She wasn't a saint; she was just a woman with emotions and desires. Besides, under the influence of the drug, how could she control herself?

Xun Qianhuan looked at Bei Yiwei, struggling to lift her body from the wall. In just a moment, her entire body was pressed against his chest. She tried to stand up, but she had no strength left. Her breathing became increasingly rapid and disordered in his arms. Chapter 76 *Inheritance

In fact, from that day on, for a very, very long time, Kiki never appeared in Xun Qianhuan and Ouyang Xi's lives again, as if she had evaporated into thin air, disappearing without a trace...

And some memories, even if they remain in the mind, will become deeper and deeper with time. Unless they are opened, they will only remain in the deepest part of memory. Therefore, whether Kiki exists or not will gradually be replaced by habit.

Xun Qianhuan wrapped her arms around Ouyang Xi’s neck, opening her alluring eyes, and said, “Me too…”

Ouyang Xi smiled, leaning down to kiss her lips, their lips entwined in a passionate kiss…

After a passionate kiss, their clothes had quietly fallen to the ground, and two naked bodies rolled on the bed…

In the instant his long body plunged into her, a soul-stirring moan filled the bedroom, neither too big nor too small, a room brimming with springtime passion…

Desire, like a demonic beast, surged through her flower path again and again, shaking the delicate body beneath him. Her breasts throbbed rhythmically, and the 'slapping' sounds of fluids from her vulva, along with the woman's moans and the man's low growls, continued to compose a wondrous melody…

One climax after another almost brought her to an indescribable peak of pleasure…

Just as she was preparing for her final climax, her cell phone rang at an inopportune moment beside the bed…

He continued thrusting into her body, and she nestled beneath him, yielding to his embrace, while the phone continued to ring relentlessly…

“Mmm…” His thrusts seemed to pierce her throat, and she couldn't control her moans any longer, letting them ring out repeatedly.

The phone kept ringing, over and over again…

“Xi, stop it, ah…” Xun Qianhuan managed to say, “The phone, I need to answer it…”

Ouyang Xi frowned unhappily, the ringing still continuing, saying, “Wait a minute, it’ll be over soon, you can call back later, right?”

Later, later, how long was “later” in his words? What if something urgent happened?

The phone rang as if it were a death knell.

Xun Qianhuan pulled one arm out and groped around on the bed, finally finding the phone. But suddenly, with a violent thrust from Ouyang Xi, the phone she had just picked up fell back onto the bed. Her hand unconsciously pressed against the phone, without her noticing… A

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ouyang Xi tapped her nose and said, "If you don't come back, I'll storm into the Bei family and take you back."

"Um...you sound like a bandit king."

"Then you'll be my bandit queen."

"No way, you barbarian." "

So, do you want me or not?"

"No..."

"You try."

……………………………………………………

Ouyang Xi dropped Xun Qianhuan off at the Bei family villa. Xun Qianhuan got out of the car, and Ouyang Xi said he had some things to do and would call him to pick her up when she was done. Xun Qianhuan agreed and walked into the Bei family's gate.

"Young Madam." The maid, Adan, greeted her respectfully.

Xun Qianhuan looked at her and asked, "Where is Bei Yiwei?"

"Young Master is waiting for you in the living room."

"Oh." Xun Qianhuan responded and said, "Then I'll go by myself. You go ahead and do your work."

"Yes."

After Adan left, Xun Qianhuan walked towards the living room.

This place was far too opulent, so magnificent it seemed like a dream. Xun Qianhuan felt a sense of dizziness. She wished this dream would end soon; she preferred a simple and carefree life. This place was indeed magnificent, but she couldn't find the feeling she was looking for.

Bei Yiwei remained as cold and aloof as ever. Sitting on the sofa, his sharp gaze fixed on Xun Qianhuan as she entered the living room.

Xun Qianhuan paused, staring at Bei Yiwei, her body stiffening. She stood there, speechless for a long time.

"You've arrived,"

Xun Qianhuan nodded, still stiff and uncomfortable.

"Come and sit down," Bei Yiwei gestured for her to sit on the sofa beside him.

Xun Qianhuan slowly walked over and sat down. After a moment, she said, "Yesterday..."

Bei Yiwei calmly continued, "Attorney Jiang will be here at two o'clock in the afternoon. We'll discuss the inheritance then."

Xun Qianhuan gave a slow, indifferent "Oh..."

Her mind was in turmoil; Xun Qianhuan's expression was slightly absent, her gaze unfocused.

However, Bei Yiwei's gaze was undisguisedly fixed on her, making her very uncomfortable. She could only say, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room first, pack my things, and after settling the inheritance matters, I'll be leaving the Bei family for a while."

As for how long that "while," only God knew.

Before Bei Yiwei could say anything, Xun Qianhuan picked up her bag and went upstairs to the bedroom.

Pushing open the door, she felt a moment of dizziness and hesitated for a moment before finally entering, closing the door slightly behind

her. She casually tossed her bag onto the large bed, then looked up, scanning the bedroom. Next, she got out of bed and went to the wardrobe, leaning lazily against it. Her slender hands searched through the clothes hanging there, picking out her favorites and tossing them onto the bed, one by one, until she felt she had enough. Turning back to the bedside, she picked up her clothes one by one, admiring herself in the mirror at the pieces she liked. After a few repetitions, she realized she was very thirsty. Luckily, there was water on the desk, so she didn't have to go downstairs. Xun Qianhuan picked up a cup, intending to gulp it down, but she drank too quickly and coughed repeatedly, spilling the water on herself. Xun Qianhuan frowned, wondering why she had drunk so fast.

After the coughing stopped, Xun Qianhuan found a dress among the pile of clothes, tried it on, and thought it looked good.

She then carefully took off her wet clothes and prepared to change into it.

Xun Qianhuan could vaguely feel her body temperature gradually rising. Even after taking off her outer clothes, she couldn't cool down. Her breathing was shallow and irregular. Xun Qianhuan leaned against the wall in discomfort. The cool wall did give her a moment of comfort, but then her body temperature continued to soar, causing her immense torment...

Xun Qianhuan was somewhat aware of her condition. This desire came on fiercely and was extremely strange...

Could it be that she had truly become a lustful woman?

Her slender hands unconsciously caressed her body, moving downwards until they reached her lower abdomen…and further down…

Xun Qianhuan groaned, “Xi…”

The door was suddenly flung open with a “bang!” Bei Yiwei’s cold, handsome, and sexy voice came from the doorway. His sharp gaze swept across the room, glancing at Xun Qianhuan before quickly looking at the glass of water on the table. He immediately said, “You drank that water?!”

Water, damn it, he was so angry he had put drugs in the water. He had originally intended to get revenge on her, but by the time he realized it and tried to stop her, it seemed too late…the drugs had already been drunk by her.

Xun Qianhuan struggled to speak, "You put drugs in the water?"

Bei Yiwei's expression was unnatural. He turned his head away, cursing under his breath, "Damn it!"

Xun Qianhuan glared at Bei Yiwei, "Bei Yiwei, you bastard!"

Even with all her resentment and anger, these were far less than the desire within her. Looking at him only made her feel worse, both physically and... emotionally...

Bei Yiwei didn't react to Xun Qianhuan's angry outburst, but suddenly lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry."

Xun Qianhuan looked at Bei Yiwei painfully, clenching her fists to stiffen her body. However, that desire was insatiable, active within her...

Xun Qianhuan turned her head away, not allowing herself to look at the man in front of her. Pressing against the wall, she frowned tightly, gritting her teeth to endure, but ultimately couldn't control the moan that escaped her lips...

"Hmm..."

Bei Yiwei closed his eyes. It was utterly absurd! How could he have done such a thing!

Xun Qianhuan felt an overwhelming urge to cry, like a child adrift at sea, desperately searching for something to lean on: "Xi..."

Bei Yiwei suddenly opened his sharp eyes, staring intently at Xun Qianhuan. His heart ached sharply. After a moment, he said, "Is he all you can think of right now?"

"Xi..."

As long as she called out Xi's name, she could distract herself. How could she submit to Bei Yiwei?

"Xi..."

Bei Yiwei walked up to her, coldly saying, "No matter how many times you call his name now, he won't come to be your antidote! Because he doesn't even know! Why waste your breath?"

With her last shred of courage, Xun Qianhuan tried to push him away: "Get away!"

But instead of pushing him away, her hand, upon touching his body, ignited like a raging fire meeting dry tinder, becoming uncontrollable.

Bei Yiwei stood motionless, staring intently at Xun Qianhuan.

Xun Qianhuan didn't push him away anymore. She wasn't a saint; she was just a woman with emotions and desires. Besides, under the influence of the drug, how could she control herself?

Xun Qianhuan looked at Bei Yiwei, struggling to lift her body from the wall. In just a moment, her entire body was leaning against his chest. She tried to stand up, but she had no strength left. Her breathing became increasingly rapid and erratic in his arms…

Bei Yiwei stiffened. He knew she had no strength left to support herself, which was why she had no choice but to lean against his chest. Even so, he still felt an inexplicable stirring in his heart. After all, at this moment, she still needed him, relied on him…

Xun Qianhuan slowly raised her head, her voice low and weak: "Why did you do this to me?"

He actually did this to her? It hurt so much, a nameless pain in her heart, a pain that made her almost want to cry immediately!

All the reasons were just a momentary impulse, and in the end, he could only say, "I'm sorry..."

"What did I do wrong?" Xun Qianhuan's tone was resentful, her face pale, her eyes brimming with tears, and she whispered, "Why did you do this to me?"

Bei Yiwei's fair and smooth face revealed a sharp and cold handsomeness; his thick eyebrows, high nose, and exquisitely shaped lips all exuded nobility, and his dark and deep eyes shone with a captivating luster, concealing a layer of tender sorrow...

His body temperature, his breath, ignited her desire layer by layer. The inexplicable pain in Nanchang had been completely replaced by desire. Her mind, her body, had only one thought, one idea: she wanted him! She desperately needed him!

She raised her face, which had quietly thinned in the past few days, closed her eyes, and offered her lips...

Bei Yiwei finally couldn't resist. Before she could kiss him, he leaned down and kissed her lips, gradually drawing out her nectar, kissing her very, very deeply...

Bei Yiwei lifted her delicate body, pushed his leg back, and slammed the door shut!

He placed her on the bed and pressed down on her. Her outer clothes were already off, and because the drug had been so tormenting her, she had unconsciously masturbated for a while, leaving her underwear disheveled. Bei Yiwei gently ripped it off and tossed it aside. In the midst of their hurried tussle, he hastily removed the obstruction from her body…

The drug had already taken effect on Xun Qianhuan's body; foreplay would only be torture for her, as Bei Yiwei knew. So, he skipped foreplay… He directly spread her thighs, revealing her flower valley, already soaking wet. It seemed she had truly endured for quite some time. Bei Yiwei let out a low growl and thrust his enormous member into her… Due to the lubrication, her inner walls, though tight, were also very slippery. The slipperiness and wetness enveloped his massive member, creating an exquisitely pleasurable sensation!

Xun Qianhuan suppressed her moans.

Seeing her like this, he frowned sharply, thrusting in fiercely, then slowly, slowly withdrew, making her feel increasingly empty inside… After withdrawing, he lingered outside until she arched her body to welcome him in, then he suddenly thrust out, and then, like glue, slowly withdrew again…

“No…”

This emptiness made her feel helpless, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on his huge member…

The pleasure intensified, and he closed his eyes, almost forgetting to breathe.

“Hurry…”

“What?”

Xun Qianhuan bit her lip: “Please hurry…”

Bei Yiwei roared again, pulling out halfway before thrusting in again, pumping wildly.

“Ah… ah… ah…” Her face contorted in pain and pleasure, emitting lewd cries with each increasingly violent movement.

They changed positions again and again...

the passion continued... Chapter 79, December
3rd:

Xun Qianhuan had already fallen asleep from exhaustion...

Bei Yiwei gazed at her quietly for at least half an hour, finally gently kissing her lips before putting on his clothes and leaving the room.

Downstairs, Enke was waiting in the living room. Bei Yiwei glanced at him but said nothing. He walked to the sofa, sat down, and slowly closed his eyes, concealing complex emotions—sadness? Helplessness?

Enke walked to Bei Yiwei's side and cautiously asked, "Boss, are you really going to give those shares to the young mistress?"

Bei Yiwei closed his eyes and whispered, "That's what she deserves, my brother's inheritance."

Enke said meaningfully, "But she can also choose not to have it."

With just a little manipulation...

Bei Yiwei sighed inwardly and said, "Anyone can change their mind about this inheritance, but... she can't."

"But, the company is in crisis right now..." "

The company's crisis has nothing to do with her. After the shares are given to her, she can do whatever she wants; that's her freedom, and I have no right to interfere." He had to respect that.

Enke's gaze deepened, and she stopped speaking, a barely perceptible smile playing on her lips:

Bei Yiwei, Bei Yiwei, do you know that in the near future, your downfall will be due to this very point! And you won't have any room for regret!

When Xun Qianhuan woke up, it was already five in the afternoon! Looking at her watch, Xun Qianhuan was startled. How could she have slept so soundly? Didn't Bei Yiwei say this morning that the lawyer would arrive at 2 PM? Good heavens! Xun Qianhuan dressed frantically, tidied her hair, and dragged her still tired body downstairs!

Sure enough, in the living room, besides Bei Yiwei, there was a middle-aged man in a suit and glasses.

Xun Qianhuan walked over, smiled apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry... have you been waiting long?"

The man replied politely, "It's alright. Mr. Bei and I are using this time to discuss some issues regarding the inheritance. You must be Xun Qianhuan, right? Hello, my surname is Qi. I'm the notary for this inheritance continuation agreement."

Xun Qianhuan smiled and said, "Hello!"

Bei Yiwei said calmly, "Let's sit down and talk."

After Xun Qianhuan sat down, Lawyer Qi handed her some documents and explained them to her. Xun Qianhuan listened attentively, but still only vaguely understood.

Finally, Bei Yiwei simply handed the drafted inheritance agreement to Xun Qianhuan, saying, "Take a look. If you find it fair and reasonable and acceptable, then sign it!"

Xun Qianhuan took the agreement blankly and carefully glanced at it. She had always dreaded dense text since childhood; this time, she was already quite good that she had managed to read it all. As for whether she could understand its meaning, that was another matter entirely.

Lawyer Qi said, "If you can accept your husband's estate, which is 30% of the shares in the Bei Group, then sign it."

Xun Qianhuan finally understood that she was inheriting Bei Yixin's estate, which was 30% of the shares in the Bei Group!

Xun Qianhuan didn't reply, but instead asked Bei Yiwei, "Didn't you tell me before that I could inherit your brother's 50 million? How come it's now shares?"

Hearing this, Attorney Qi looked at Bei Yiwei, puzzled, and asked, "What's going on?"

Bei Yiwei was taken aback, somewhat embarrassed, and coughed, saying, "That was just something I said randomly, it doesn't count!"

Xun Qianhuan's eyes widened in shock, and she almost slammed her hand on the table, but she held back, clenching her fist and glaring at Bei Yiwei, saying, "Bei Yiwei, how can you go back on your word? Are you trying to renege on your promise? No matter what you say, I want that 50 million!"

Attorney Qi was somewhat embarrassed, sat up straight, and stared at Xun Qianhuan, saying, "Madam, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Xun Qianhuan retorted firmly, "What's there to not understand? I want that 50 million!"

"You don't want those 30% shares?"

Xun Qianhuan blurted out, "What shares? I don't want that stuff, money is the most real!"

Bei Yiwei didn't know how to sit still any longer, so he picked up the water on the table and took a sip.

Was Xun Qianhuan genuinely unaware or just pretending?

Lawyer Qi carefully said to Xun Qianhuan, "But those shares are... several times more than those 50 million..."

"Uh..." Xun Qianhuan was stunned.

Several times...

several times more than 50 million?!

Oh dear, how could she be so stupid? Stupid, so stupid, she almost let such a good opportunity slip through her fingers!

Seeing her remain silent for a while, Lawyer Qi asked, "So what do you mean... sign or not sign?"

Xun Qianhuan's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "Sign, of course I'll sign!"

How could she let such a good opportunity slip away?

Xun Qianhuan immediately picked up the pen and signed her name without hesitation!

And then, those 30% shares were hers!

That day, Xun Qianhuan was excited all afternoon, even during lunch she couldn't stop smiling.

Before leaving the Bei family, Xun Qianhuan turned back to Bei Yiwei and said, "It seems you're not as bad as I thought..."

Bei Yiwei asked, "Was I really that bad before?"

Xun Qianhuan smiled but didn't answer.

Bei Yiwei stared at her: "Do you really have to leave the Bei family?"

Xun Qianhuan said, "I want to leave for a while."

Bei Yiwei said calmly, "Then don't forget, you... will always be a member of the Bei family."

Xun Qianhuan was stunned, her mind going blank for a moment.

The previous excitement, the previous happiness, the previous exhilaration seemed to be gradually replaced by something... Yes, that was the shackles.

Chapter 80

Xun Qianhuan didn't call Ouyang Xi, but walked home step by step.

Night fell, the streetlights came on, the sound of cars continued, everything seemed so noisy, so bustling... But for Xun Qianhuan, all of this was somewhat irritating.

Xun Qianhuan walked by the roadside, quietly pondering... Thirty percent of the shares... so much money.

But what use was it to her? She was a simple woman with no grand ambitions. As long as she could walk hand-in-hand with the one she loved until old age, that was enough for her…

Xun Qianhuan was walking along the street when suddenly a pair of arms wrapped around her waist from behind, and a familiar scent wafted towards her…

Xun Qianhuan was startled at first, then smiled sweetly. Even in the vast sea of people, she didn't need her eyes to recognize him.

“Xi…”

The person behind her, holding her waist, asked softly, “How did you know it was me?”

“I can feel it's you, and I can smell it too.”

Ouyang Xi feigned surprise, saying, “So your nose is that sensitive!”

Xun Qianhuan smiled, “Sometimes, but whenever it's you, I can always smell it.”

Ouyang Xi sighed, “I'm so happy!”

“What's wrong with you?”

Ouyang Xi said, “You're one to talk! I told you to call me when you got home so I could pick you up, but you didn't call once. I was worried sick and looked for you everywhere.”

Xun Qianhuan couldn't help but laugh, “I'm not a child anymore. I can go home by myself.”

“But it’s different in meaning,” Ouyang Xi said softly. “If I were to pick you up at the Bei family’s door and take you home, I would really, really love that feeling.”

Xun Qianhuan was slightly taken aback and said, “Okay, I’ll definitely call you next time!”

Ouyang Xi turned Xun Qianhuan around, and the two looked at each other. Ouyang Xi said, “No way, there will absolutely not be a next time!”

Xun Qianhuan was puzzled: “What?”

Ouyang Xi hugged Xun Qianhuan again and said, “There won’t be a next time. You mustn’t go back to the Bei family again…”

Xun Qianhuan suddenly fell silent.

After returning home, Xun Qianhuan said she was very tired. She took a shower and went to bed, but she couldn’t fall asleep no matter how much she tossed and turned. Even after Ouyang Xi had also taken a shower and gone to bed, her eyes remained open.

The two were covered by the same blanket, only their heads showing. They lay facing each other. Ouyang Xi looked at her and said, "Didn't you say Wei was tired? Why aren't you sleeping?"

Xun Qianhuan snuggled closer to Ouyang Xi, habitually hugging him, and said, "I can't sleep."

Touching her somber face, he asked, "What's wrong, baby?"

Xun Qianhuan blinked and asked, "Xi, why don't you ask me about what happened at the Bei family?"

Ouyang Xi smiled and said, "Because I believe you'll tell me."

Xun Qianhuan pouted, "You naughty Xi!"

Ouyang Xi followed up, "When you went to the Bei family, Bei Yiwei didn't give you any trouble, did he?"

"Give him trouble?" Xun Qianhuan was slightly surprised, then smiled and said, "How could that be? No, don't worry."

Xun Qianhuan thought for a moment and said, "Xi, I can inherit 30% of Bei Yixin's estate, the shares of the Bei Group." "

30%?" Ouyang Xi was surprised, then asked, "You inherited it?"

“Yes, it was just signed today.”

Ouyang Xi was genuinely surprised and couldn’t help but say to herself, “Even at this point, the Bei family is still filling in this 30% share… Isn’t this heaven helping them?”

"Xi, what are you saying?"

Ouyang Xi kissed Xun Qianhuan and smiled. "I was just saying that you definitely won't only inherit 50 million from Bei Yixin's estate."

Xun Qianhuan was silent. "..."

Ouyang Xi looked at her carefully and asked, "But you don't seem happy?"

Xun Qianhuan said lightly, "No, when I first learned I could inherit so much, I was very happy, but... gradually, I just couldn't be happy anymore... For me, those shares are mostly just pressure..."

Ouyang Xi looked at her affectionately and said, "Qianhuan, don't think so much."

"I try not to think about it, but I can't help it. Those shares are completely useless to me. I don't do business..." Xun Qianhuan hugged Ouyang Xi tightly and said, "I just want to stay home every day, cook for you, do... things you like." "

Qianhuan, this is a competitive and realistic world. If you want to survive, you have to make yourself strong. These things are unavoidable and cannot be escaped. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Xun Qianhuan sighed. "Of course I understand, but I have you, Xi. You will take care of me for the rest of your life, right?" A

rest of your life?

He also wanted to… He hoped that God would give him this opportunity…

“But…” Ouyang Xi stared at Xun Qianhuan and said, “If one day I can’t even take care of myself, what will you do?”

Xun Qianhuan smiled at Ouyang Xi: “So, I’ve decided to transfer those 30% of the shares to you! That way, you’ll definitely be able to take care of me!”

Chapter 81

Ouyang Xi was stunned: “Xun Qianhuan, what are you saying?”

Xun Qianhuan said seriously: “I said I’m going to give you 30% of the shares!”

Ouyang Xi gently patted Xun Qianhuan’s head: “Girl, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Xun Qianhuan removed his hand and said: “Xi, I’m serious!”

Ouyang Xi looked at Xun Qianhuan tenderly and said: “Qianhuan, it’s time to sleep.”

Seeing that he didn’t take her words seriously at all, Xun Qianhuan was a little unhappy, pouted, and simply got up, punching Ouyang Xi, saying: “Xi, I’m not joking.”

"Good girl," Ouyang Xi reached out and pulled her down onto the bed, whispering, "That's your stuff. It won't get moldy if you leave it there."

Xun Qianhuan protested, "But it makes me feel very uncomfortable."

"What's uncomfortable about it?" Ouyang Xi said patiently, "You'll get used to it after a while. It's normal to feel uncomfortable now that you've suddenly received such a large sum of money. Girl, don't be silly, okay?"

"Xi~~~" Xun Qianhuan drew out her words.

"Anyway, I'm not taking your stuff."

Xun Qianhuan's expression hardened completely. She sat up on the bed again and questioned, "Ouyang Xi, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by 'your stuff' and 'my stuff'?"

Ouyang Xi's handsome face showed slight helplessness. He had no choice but to sit up as well and said, "Qianhuan, I didn't mean that. I..."

Xun Qianhuan asked coldly, "Don't you love me at all?"

Ouyang Xi frowned and said, "What do you mean, Qianhuan? Can't you tell how I treat you? But with so much wealth, how can I possibly take it from you?"

Xun Qianhuan stared blankly at Ouyang Xi for a long while before finally sighing. She reached out and hugged his neck, nestling against his chest, and softly said, "Xi, now I've completely given you my body and my heart, let alone those material possessions. I know what you mean, but the more you do this, the more my heart aches. You know that? I'm so sad, so very sad..."

Ouyang Xi's eyes were deep and unfathomable as he said, "Qianhuan, we can share anything else, but only..." "These shares... I... dare not take them."

He truly dared not take them... Even if his entire plan would be a success once he had them, he would inevitably be tormented by his conscience... Although he truly loved her, that was undeniable, this plan was a process he had to go through. Once he got through this process, he should be able to be open about everything, face her, and give her pure love...

Xun Qianhuan asked in confusion, "Why?"

Ouyang Xi hugged her tightly, their bodies pressed together. He closed his eyes, as if talking to himself, "I'm afraid of doing something I'll regret..."

Xun Qianhuan was even more confused, "What are you talking about?"

“I said, I’m afraid that if I accept those shares, I might do something you can’t forgive me for…”

Xun Qianhuan raised her eyes, turned her head, and looked at Ouyang Xi, saying, “Are you afraid that if you accept those shares, you’ll mess them all up and end up with nothing? Are you afraid I’ll blame you?”

Ouyang Xi was taken aback: “…”

Xun Qianhuan smiled: “No way! Even if you lose all those shares, I won’t blame you. As long as you stay by my side and don’t leave me, I’m already very satisfied. Actually, thinking about it, those shares are meaningless to me, but you’re a man. With those shares, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own career. Isn’t that great?”

"Qianhuan, do you think things are good as they are now?" Ouyang Xi asked. "Or do you think I'm useless right now, so you want me to take those shares and make something of myself?"

Xun Qianhuan quickly replied, "That's not what I meant! I don't think you're useless... Although you're a bit lazy sometimes, I've just fallen for you, hopelessly. If I think you're useless, then I'm even more useless myself."

Seeing how serious she was, Ouyang Xi couldn't bear it and tapped her nose, saying, "Silly girl, I... " I'm kidding you!

Xun Qianhuan pursed her lips and said, "Xi is so bad!" Bad Eve! "

As he said that, Xun Qianhuan raised her little face, kissed him briskly on the lips, and then said with a smile: "This is your punishment.

Ouyang Xi smiled charmingly: "What should we do?" I am so happy about this kind of punishment! "Then he took the opportunity to capture her lips and started a passionate and lingering kiss...

Xun Qianhuan's little face turned red from the kiss, and she leaned limply in his arms and said quietly: "Xi, whether it's your thing or mine, it's all the same, isn't it? "

...Yes."

Xun Qianhuan asked again and again: "Then just promise me, okay?" "

The handsome Ouyang Xi fell silent: "..."

"Promise me. "

Qianhuan...

" Xunqianhuan said stubbornly: "Baixi, if you don't promise me, then I will keep annoying you in your ears, annoying you, annoying you, annoying you again, until you promise me!"

"Xun Qian Huan..."

God, how can there be a woman like her? I am so helpless! But... just because of this, he likes her.

Xun Qianhuan began to murmur, "Promise me."

"Good Xi, promise me~"

"..."

"You naughty Xi, promise me~"

"..."

Xun Qianhuan's patience had worn thin, and she glared at him, "Do you have to do this?"

Ouyang Xi was helpless, "I..."

Knowing what excuse he was going to use to brush her off, Xun Qianhuan's gaze shifted, and before he could say anything, she leaned forward and kissed his lips. After Ouyang Xi's repeated 'training,' Xun Qianhuan's kissing skills were quite good, and soon she had Ouyang Xi in a daze...

Xun Qianhuan kissed him for a while, then quietly untied his robe, her small hands caressing his sexy body, teasing him in the most familiar and effective way...

Ouyang Xi dared not move, and said with restraint, "Qianhuan, you..."

She playfully bit his nipple, glanced at him, and said, "Will you promise or not?"

Ouyang Xi closed his eyes tightly, waves of pleasure washing over him, and he breathed deeply, "Qianhuan, why are you doing this?"

"This is punishment for making me sad." Halfway through her teasing, Xun Qianhuan stopped all her actions and sat to the side, staring at him. "You have to agree today, whether you like it or not, otherwise, I'll never talk to you again!"

Ouyang Xi suddenly flipped over, pinning her beneath him, and looked at her. "You really are a little vixen. Okay, I agree..."

"Hehe, really!"

Xun Qianhuan immediately pushed Ouyang Xi away and jumped up in surprise!

Ouyang Xi was pushed aside and looked at Xun Qianhuan with some distress. Honestly, the desire she had aroused was still tormenting him, while the woman in front of him was completely oblivious, smiling sweetly.

“Qianhuan…”

Ouyang Xi reached out and hugged her from behind, kissing her fragrant shoulder…

Xun Qianhuan struggled and shook him off, saying, “Not today.”

He was unwilling: “You started it.”

Xun Qianhuan smiled: “Saying it is your punishment.”

Then she pulled the blanket over him and said, “Go to sleep, we still have to do the transfer procedures tomorrow.”

Ouyang Xi sighed helplessly, lay down on the bed, and said, “Yes, ma’am.”

………………………………………………………………………………

82

Xun Qianhuan signed her name unhurriedly, obviously after careful consideration, just like when she handled this share transfer. She had also thought it over carefully before finally deciding to transfer the shares to Ouyang Xi. Perhaps love can numb a person’s rationality, but she was willing to be numb. She loved Xi too much, loved him so much that she wanted to give him everything, even… her life! Besides, this was just a piece of money.

After signing her name,

Xun Qianhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It felt as if a heavy stone had vanished from her heart in an instant. The feeling was so light and relieved. She smiled, her eyes crinkling, her face rosy, and her lips overflowing with joy. Her clear voice, fixed on Ouyang Xi, said, "Wow, I've finally gotten rid of this trouble for you!"

Ouyang Xi, quite helplessly, ruffled her hair and said, "You're such a silly girl."

Xun Qianhuan feigned displeasure: "Don't call me silly girl anymore!"

Ouyang Xi said, "You're clearly silly, but you won't admit it."

"You bad Xi! You big bad guy!"

"How am I bad?"

Xun Qianhuan echoed Ouyang Xi's tone: "You're clearly bad, but you won't admit it."

“But what can I do?” Ouyang Xi sighed. “No matter how bad I am, the shares are already in my hands. Don’t you regret it?”

“Xi, stop talking nonsense,” Xun Qianhuan said. “The shares are yours now, you can do with them as you please, but…”

“What?”

Xun Qianhuan’s tone changed abruptly. “If you dare to use this money to support a woman outside, then… you’re dead!”

“No, no, absolutely not!”

Seeing his serious expression, Xun Qianhuan couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t be hypocritical, or I won’t let you off the hook!”

Ouyang Xi leaned closer and said, “Let go? Of course not. Neither of us will let the other off the hook…”

Xun Qianhuan gently kissed Ouyang Xi’s cheek as he approached and said, “It’s a deal.”

The sun was shining brightly, the air was fresh and invigorating, a gentle breeze blew, and smiles appeared.

Everything seemed so beautiful. The sweetness and happiness of this moment, if it could last forever, Xun Qianhuan vowed that even if it shortened her lifespan, she would be willing, as long as she could be with Xi every day for the rest of her life…

In fact, they had been living like this for several days, but happy days often pass quickly. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, the days were over, hour after hour, day after day… As usual, Ouyang Xi would go out in the morning, and at this time, Xun Qianhuan would go out to buy groceries. Ouyang Xi never said what she was going out to do, and Xun Qianhuan never asked either; the two had a good understanding. However, today, Xun Qianhuan seemed to casually ask before Ouyang Xi left, “Where are you going today?” Ouyang Xi answered without hesitation, “To the Kexing Hotel, to discuss some construction matters with a client.” Xun Qianhuan didn’t take it to heart, only saying, “Then come back early.” Ouyang Xi smiled at her, “Okay.” After Ouyang Xi left, Xun Qianhuan finished cleaning and then went out to buy groceries. Wandering through the supermarket, dazzled by the variety of vegetables, Xun Qianhuan couldn't decide what to buy. Finally, after selecting a few items, an hour passed. After paying, Xun Qianhuan carried the bags out of the supermarket and headed home. Her habitual glance across the street caught her eye, which inadvertently landed on a man. At that moment, Xun Qianhuan's gaze was locked on him! It was En Ke. Xun Qianhuan had only had a vague feeling before; she had seen En Ke a few times, though she didn't remember him well, she could vaguely recall his appearance. However, what she noticed wasn't En Ke's face, but… his back… a back, a very memorable back… Memories formed during times of greatest fear, helplessness, and terror are often the most profound and unforgettable. She remembered seeing that same figure on the third day she was locked in that room. Back then, the person was wearing a mask, and she couldn't see their face, but she had unintentionally memorized their silhouette! Xun Qianhuan, carrying her bag, subconsciously followed, her gaze locked on the person's back. After following for about two blocks, in a crowded area, Xun Qianhuan kept dodging and weaving, but suddenly, when she reached a hotel, Enke disappeared! Xun Qianhuan searched everywhere for him, but in the vast sea of people, every face was unfamiliar… She looked up at the sign: Kexing Hotel! In her memory, Xi had said she was coming to this hotel, right? What a coincidence! How did she end up here? Should she go in and check? Xun Qianhuan reconsidered. Maybe she shouldn't. Xi must be talking to a client, and she was carrying groceries… it just didn't seem right. With that thought, Xun Qianhuan turned and left. Her mind kept replaying the thought... Enke, he said, if the person who kidnapped her last time was indeed Enke, then... could it be related to Bei Yiwei?! Xun Qianhuan was shocked, finding these things too unbelievable. Her heart pounded, filled with fear, confusion, and dread! She had to find out, she absolutely had to find out the truth! Was Bei Yiwei really related to you? ................................ 83 "Young Madam?" Adan looked at the suddenly arriving Xun Qianhuan in surprise. She was casually dressed, carrying several bags, looking no different from an ordinary housewife. Xun Qianhuan asked, "Adan, where is the Second Young Master?" Adan replied, "The Young Master is sleeping right now." Upon hearing this, Xun Qianhuan said nothing more and went upstairs. Adan hurriedly said from behind, "Young Madam, let me carry your groceries for you." Xun Qianhuan was taken aback, glanced at the bag in her hand, and felt a little embarrassed that she had come looking like this. So she handed the bag to Adan and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Adan." "Young Madam, you're too kind. It's what I should do." Xun Qianhuan could only smile at her, then turned around and continued upstairs. She was already very familiar with the Bei family home. With a clear purpose, she went to the first bedroom on the left side of the second floor. Forgetting to knock, she pushed the door open and rushed in. "Bei Yiwei!" Xun Qianhuan shouted as she entered the room. She immediately saw the large bed, and Bei Yiwei was lying naked on it. The curtains in the room were drawn, making it a little dark, but his naked body was clearly visible. Xun Qianhuan was stunned. Although it wasn't the first time she had seen him naked, she couldn't help but blush and her heart race. She quickly looked away and stood awkwardly in the room. Bei Yiwei slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep and unfathomable, his cold face expressionless. Still lying on the bed, he slowly turned his head, staring at Xun Qianxun, and smiled slightly: "You've come." His calm tone eased the awkwardness in the room. She said lightly, "I came to see you about something." Bei Yiwei raised an eyebrow, remained silent for a moment, then suddenly turned around, reached out and grabbed the robe beside him. In the blink of an eye, he had put the robe on his sexy body, and then turned around handsomely. Every movement, every expression of his, even so cold, even sometimes rude, even with so many flaws... appeared so handsome on him. "Speak, what is it?" Xun Qianhuan stared at Bei Yiwei, her heart pounding nervously. Her fingers tightened involuntarily. "Where's your subordinate?" she asked. Bei Yiwei was initially puzzled. "Who are you talking about?" Xun Qianhuan sniffed. "Where's Enke?" Bei Yiwei paused, then said, "Why are you suddenly asking about him? What do you want with him?" Xun Qianhuan's heart tightened. A thought flashed through her mind! Sure enough!

This further confirms that the person she saw was Enke. Xun Qianhuan mustered her courage again and said, "Bei Yiwei, tell me, isn't Enke completely loyal to you?"

Loyal...

A glint of cold light flashed in Bei Yiwei's eyes. He truthfully replied, "At least, right now, besides him, I can't find any other trustworthy partner."

Xun Qianhuan continued to ask, "Then, whatever you tell him to do, he'll do it, right?"

Bei Yiwei smiled, "The things I tell him to do are within a certain scope, things he can do."

Xun Qianhuan's expression seemed to turn cold in an instant. She said, "Then, does that include kidnapping me?"

Bei Yiwei's eyes sharpened instantly, revealing his shock, but his expression remained unchanged, calm and composed: "I don't know what you're talking about."

"I don't believe it!" Xun Qianhuan asked coldly, "Tell me, did you kidnap me?"

Bei Yiwei said in a low voice, "You came here today just to ask these questions?"

"You kidnapped me, didn't you?!"

Bei Yiwei's expression sharpened as he approached her. "Xun Qianhuan!"

He had lost everything for her—his company, his status, his money, his reputation, and even himself. He didn't ask for any gratitude or reward from her, but he couldn't tolerate her misunderstanding him like this!

"Bei Yiwei, I'm asking you seriously—that time, did you kidnap me?"

Bei Yiwei stared at Xun Qianhuan expressionlessly, his gaze growing deeper and deeper, as if sinking into a bottomless pit. His heart trembled slightly. He said, "It wasn't me."

He gazed at her for a long, long time, and that gaze made her momentarily feel as if she had misunderstood him.

It was this gaze that made her realize—yes, she had been too reckless, too impulsive. How could she have so rashly come to ask him? Based solely on a vivid… back view, based solely on her own conjecture.

Xun Qianhuan took a breath and said, "Fine, I'll tell you, I will definitely find the evidence! I will definitely find the murderer who kidnapped me!"

Bei Yiwei stared at her, silent.

Looking at her, he turned and left without hesitation.

Even after she left

, the room remained heavy with gloom.

When Xun Qianhuan returned home, Ouyang Xi hadn't come back yet. Looking at the time, it was time to make lunch. Ouyang Xi had a habit of always returning home on time, no matter when he went out. So, she would prepare his meals on time, and watching him eat his favorite dishes every day filled her with indescribable joy…

Xun Qianhuan was somewhat distracted while cooking, thus wasting a lot of time. Even when Ouyang Xi returned home, she was still busy in the kitchen.

Ouyang Xi quietly walked into the kitchen, secretly reaching out from behind to hug her waist, and said, "What delicious food did you prepare today?"

Xun Qianhuan smiled faintly, "All your favorites."

"Hehe, Huan is the best to me."

"You only realize that now?"

Ouyang Xi quickly said, "No, it was a long, long time ago, um... was it in my past life? I feel like you were this good to me in my past life too."

Xun Qianhuan chuckled, "I knew you were the best at being cheeky!"

"Hehe..."

At the dinner table.

Ouyang Xi ate for a while, then looked at her and couldn't help but ask, "...Qianhuan, what's wrong? You looked so preoccupied when you came back. If something's wrong, just tell me, I can help you."

Hearing what Ouyang Xi said, Xun Qianhuan simply put down her chopsticks, looked at him and asked, "Xi, do you know that Enke?"

Ouyang Xi's movements suddenly froze! His gaze fixed! He held on for a moment, then said, "I don't know her."

"I suspect..." Xun Qianhuan sighed, unsure whether to continue.

Ouyang Xi felt a little nervous and asked, "What's wrong with En Ke? What do you suspect him of?"

"I suspect..." Xun Qianhuan composed herself and said, "I suspect he kidnapped me! But I know he's definitely not the mastermind; there must be someone behind him directing him!"

Chapter 84

Ouyang Xi smiled: "Why do you suspect him?"

Xun Qianhuan answered seriously, "Because his back looked very familiar. That day, there was a masked person; I have a deep impression of him! I can't be wrong!"

Ouyang Xi nodded but didn't offer any further opinion. Her gaze was deep, and beneath her calm expression, no one knew what she was thinking.

He asked, "So what do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?" Xun Qianhuan murmured those three words blankly, finally saying, "I don't know."

Ouyang Xi stared at her intently for a while, then smiled comfortingly and said, "Qianhuan, some things, if you're unhappy, are over and done with. There's no need to dwell on it so much."

Xun Qianhuan sighed and said, "That's what I thought before too, but when I found out this was related to Bei Yiwei, I became extremely angry, and then I wanted to find evidence. I want to get to the bottom of this, otherwise, I absolutely won't give up!"

Ouyang Xi's brows concealed complex thoughts, his handsome face lacking its usual carefree demeanor. A person with an overly calm expression often hides something unknown…

"Qianhuan, why be like this?" Ouyang Xi continued to persuade Xun Qianhuan, saying, "Even if Bei Yiwei is involved, it's not surprising, because it was the Bei family who did this, wasn't it? Alright, stop thinking about it. Isn't it good enough for us to live a peaceful and sweet life like this?"

“But…” Xun Qianhuan frowned, saying, “I just can’t help thinking about it. One thought after another, uncontrollably, just floods my mind. It’s like if I don’t figure out the truth, these things will keep haunting me…”

The truth…

sometimes knowing the truth isn’t necessarily better than not knowing. The truth usually only makes things worse.

The truth…

the one who truly held her hostage was him…

That’s the truth. If the truth were ever revealed, how would he face her?

Things had come to this point, and he had no room for regret; he could only continue onward!

Ouyang Xi stood up from her chair, walked to Xun Qianhuan's side, sat down, and hugged her, saying, "Don't think about it, don't think about anything, Qianhuan..."

Xun Qianhuan also reached out and hugged Ouyang Xi back, "Xi..."

Ouyang Xi said in a low voice, "Qianhuan, let's live like this, day by day, don't worry about those troublesome things anymore, and don't think about them, please, Qianhuan..."

"But, I can't help it..."

"Then, let's find a way to distract ourselves."

"Distract ourselves?" Xun Qianhuan asked, puzzled, "How?"

Ouyang Xi gazed at Xun Qianhuan for a long time before saying, "Let's have a child."

"A child?" Xun Qianhuan was surprised, staring at Ouyang Xi, and said, "You mean a child?!"

Ouyang Xi said gently, "Yes, a child. Once we have a child, you won't overthink things anymore."

Xun Qianhuan was still in shock, clearly not mentally prepared. Giving birth, becoming a mother, what a great thing, but could she do it?

"Children are like angels; their arrival can solve many problems...

" Xun Qianhuan said truthfully, "I've never thought about it—having a child."

Ouyang Xi smiled gently and said, "There's always a first time. It's a process that everyone must go through in life, a happy process. When the time comes, our family..." Ouyang

Xi's words suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something, his expression subtly silent...

a family...

Xun Qianhuan certainly understood, a family... She was now a married woman, though not officially married, she was nominally married. This was his shackle; in name, she was Bei Yiwei's wife, and even in death, she would still be his wife. Moreover, he inherited Bei Yiwei's estate, so she was a member of the Bei family. Before, she only had a very simple thought: as long as she could be with Ouyang Xi and live together, she would be satisfied. But now, when it came to having a child, to that word "family," all the problems, all the troubles, came to the fore...

the Bei family, good or bad, all stemmed from the Bei family.

Xun Qianhuan understood.

Ouyang Xi knew this all too well.

Therefore, the Bei family must... fall!

Ouyang Xi's gentle gaze and pleasant voice eased the awkward atmosphere. He said, "Qianhuan, do you like children?"

Ouyang Xi's question led Xun Qianhuan into deep thought. She murmured to herself, "Children..."

A child's smile is like an angel's, so innocent, so adorable...

She remembered when Xin Tong was first born, although she was small then, she liked to pinch his cheeks often, her little hands caressing his smooth skin, making little Xin Tong cry and laugh at the same time.

Ouyang Xi whispered in her ear, "Do you like it?"

Xun Qianhuan suddenly smiled, "Of course I like it."

"Okay, let's have one then."

Seeing his confident look, Xun Qianhuan couldn't help but laugh, "Do you think childbirth is done by machines? Just like that, you can have one whenever you want!"

Ouyang Xi's expression became ambiguous, and he said, "So, we have to work hard."

Both his tone and actions were the ambiguity that Xun Qianhuan knew best about Ouyang Xi. Hiding her shyness, Xun Qianhuan said, "Be serious, we're eating."

Ouyang Xi pouted, "You didn't want to eat just now."

"But I want to eat now."

"Why?"

Xun Qianhuan paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "How can you have a child if you don't take care of your body?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Xi couldn't help but chuckle.

A child, yes, a child is an angel, and also a lock...

…………………………………………

Beizhai.

Here, splendor seems eternal, yet solitude perpetually envelops this villa. It's vast, yet sparsely populated; how can it not be desolate?

The house is desolate, the people are desolate, the heart is desolate—so the air, the breath, everything here is desolate.

A Tneall Nen cigarette is lit; the long, drifting smoke silently dissipates in the air. A few embers remain on the lit tip, burning quietly and slowly, its life ending bit by bit…

Bei Yiwei, cigarette between his fingers, sits motionless in his swivel chair, his expression unchanged. He sits there, motionless, for a long time. Enke has been called in for a long time, but he hasn't uttered a word. Enke stands quietly behind him, head bowed, also silent. Everything seems still; if it weren't for the cigarette burning, one might have the illusion that life had ceased.

Gradually, the cigarette finally burns to its end… and then, quietly extinguishes.

At that moment, Bei Yiwei accurately tossed the cigarette into the ashtray.

Everything was restored, and things continued as before.

Bei Yiwei blinked slowly, a lazy movement that couldn't diminish the sharp light in his eyes. He said unhurriedly, "Enke, how did we meet?"

Enke's expression shifted, his mind remaining alert. He said casually, "Once, you were being chased by several assassins, and then I ran into you..."

Bei Yiwei finished his sentence casually, "And then you bravely came to my rescue."

Enke took a deep breath and whispered, "Back then, no matter who I encountered, I would have intervened."

Bei Yiwei said calmly, "Yes, no matter..." "You would save anyone, but from that moment on, I trusted you deeply. From childhood to adulthood, I've never trusted even my brother like that. I trust you. You know everything about me—my strengths, my weaknesses, my fatal flaws…you know it all."

Enke thought to himself, "Boss…"

Bei Yiwei continued, "I entrust everything to you. I believe Le will do a good job for me. Sometimes, I'd even entrust my life to you…because you are my most trusted partner."

Partner, yes, partner, not superior or subordinate, not boss or employee. Just partner, the most trusted partner.

Bei Yiwei's words pierced his heart…a deep, piercing pain!

His pupils were unfathomable, his expression stiff as death.

Everything Bei Yiwei said was true, and he knew it came from the bottom of Bei Yiwei's heart…but he had betrayed him, betrayed him from beginning to end!

Actually, much later, when he recalled this matter, he had a moment of worry during the process of handling it... But worry was just worry, and the final result was still...

Chapter 85

The morning sunlight, dappled into the room, casting a warm glow. Outside the window, birds chirped merrily, but the room was very quiet. On the wall clock, the second hand ticked away, carrying the footsteps of time...

The handsome Ouyang Xi propped himself up on the bed, quietly smiling as he gazed at the sleeping person beside him. Because she slept so peacefully, he couldn't help but become quiet as well. The small face in front of him was indeed smaller. It used to be round, with a round chin, but now, in just a few short days, her face had gradually become thinner without him noticing. Her cheeks had thinned, and her chin had become much sharper. Yes, she had indeed become more beautiful, but what did beauty matter to him now? He felt mostly heartache. She had lost weight so quickly; he had no idea how much pressure and suffering she had endured recently.

A thousand words were left unsaid, but in his heart, he could only say one: "I'm sorry."

Although he could say sorry, he couldn't stop; he had to keep going!

She was sleeping so soundly; he couldn't bear to wake her. Let her sleep a little longer. As for breakfast, well, he'd have to take care of it himself.

Just as Ouyang Xi was about to make breakfast, his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw the number—a number he recognized!

He glanced back into the room; she seemed to still be asleep. So, he quickly left the house and found a secluded spot to answer the call. As

soon as Ouyang Xi answered, he blurted out, "Enke, what's wrong?"

Enke's tone was calm, but a hint of panic crept in: "Xi, come out. Let's talk."

Hearing this, Ouyang Xi, despite his doubts and nervousness, said nothing, only asking, "Where shall we meet?"

In the private room.

Ouyang Xi, expressionless, took a sip of wine, then said in a low voice, "No."

Enke, upon hearing this, abruptly stood up, glaring at Ouyang Xi: "Why not? What time is it now? Xi, can't you stop being so sentimental?!"

Ouyang Xi impatiently roared, "I said no, and that's final!"

Enke was also furious, almost pointing at Ouyang Xi's nose, saying, "No means no! We absolutely can't delay any longer! Do you know that Bei Yiwei is already suspicious of me? He's suspicious of me, do you understand the consequences?"

"Then we can think of other ways," Ouyang Xi said, "Anyway, I can't use Qianhuan anymore..."

"Ouyang Xi, how can you be so spineless?!"

he cursed. This was the first time in his life that he had cursed him so fiercely, simply because he was too excited and indignant. The pressure from Bei Yiwei and Ouyang Xi's hesitation had pushed Enke to the brink of collapse. How could he not be anxious and angry?!

Enke's angry outburst deeply shook him. He closed his eyes, tightly closed them, his mind a jumble of thoughts. The more he tried to sort them out, the worse it became. He was trying to find the real loose end, but all the threads were tangled together...

He said, all he could say was, "We'll think of other ways. We'll definitely find a better way to handle this. We'll definitely succeed."

These words were said to Enke, but it was more like he was saying them to himself.

Even Enke saw this, and he angrily said, "You're just fooling yourself! Now, unless we hand over those 30% of shares, we're guaranteed to win. If we don't, not only will my cover be blown sooner or later in Beiyiwei, but everything we've done before will be for nothing!"

"Those shares aren't mine!"

"But they're in your hands, aren't they? Not only are they in your hands, but you have the right to use them, don't you? We're clearly on the verge of victory, yet you hesitate at this crucial moment. Ouyang Xi, don't let me down!"

Ouyang Xi thought and thought, pondered and pondered, and finally, clutching his head, he gritted his teeth and said, "...Don't force me!"

"You're forcing me, not me forcing you. You're forcing me. Your hesitation will only push both of us—to the brink of despair!"

Ouyang Xi buried his head in his hands, deeply reflecting, feeling a piercing pain in his heart: "I can't do this anymore, I can't use her anymore, use her shares... If I do this, she might never forgive me for the rest of her life!"

"You said it yourself, it's just 'maybe,' nothing's certain, so what are you worried about? Those shares were given to you by her, and she told you to use them however you like. What does she have to blame you for? But if you continue like this, you'll hurt me, you'll ruin our whole plan!"

Qianhuan, Qianhuan…

His mind was filled with nothing but Qianhuan, yet he dared not think about what she would do to him when she knew the whole truth… Would she leave him

… ? This was a terrible ending. If he could, he would rather give his life for a different ending… Ouyang Xi murmured, “Qianhuan… Qianhuan will never forgive me…” Enke stared wide-eyed at Ouyang Xi in disbelief, veins throbbing on his forehead, his gaze sharp enough to shoot out serious consequences. His body was tense, every muscle poised to strike. He recalled the past, his father’s instructions, the promises they had made to him, and the Ouyang Xi of the past… Suddenly, he hated Ouyang Xi to the core, hating him so much he gritted his teeth, his fists aching. Ouyang Xi only groaned, saying nothing, making no move. Chapter 86 Helplessness… Ouyang Xi’s feelings at this moment could not be described simply as helplessness. Wasn’t this choice more painful than killing him? Yet, he had to make a choice! Perhaps no one could understand him, not even himself… But deep down, there was a sliver of hope that she could understand… When Xun Qianhuan woke up, she was alone in the room. Xi must have gone out again? She was planning to go to the Bei family again today. She refused to believe she wouldn't run into Enke today! Unless he truly had a guilty conscience! After finishing some chores at home, Xun Qianhuan immediately got ready to leave. She took a taxi and headed to the Bei family. Along the way, Xun Qianhuan's thoughts drifted aimlessly. She couldn't calm down and think things through… Her hands clasped together, and after a while, they became slightly sweaty… She had a very bad premonition, a premonition that was weakening her resolve. She even doubted her decision. Perhaps… Xi was right last night; she shouldn't have bothered with so many things. Why did she have to bring up these things that troubled and frightened her? But that's how people are; the more unclear something is, the more they want to understand it! As Xun Qianhuan struggled with her inner conflict, the taxi slowly pulled up in front of the Bei family's house. At this moment, Xun Qianhuan was determined not to back down! Sitting inside the taxi, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and when she opened them again, her gaze held a strange light. After paying the driver, as she prepared to get out, Xun Qianhuan inadvertently noticed another car slowly stopping in front of the Bei family's house across the street. Xun Qianhuan froze, her gaze fixed on the car. Then, she watched as the car door opened, and then—Enke slowly stepped out! Enke?! Xun Qianhuan was startled. Shocked, she instinctively pushed open the car door, jumped out, straightened her back, and resolutely stared at Enke, silently encouraging herself. Then, she walked step by step towards Enke… Enke, who had just gotten out of the car, seemed to notice someone approaching him. He turned around and saw Xun Qianhuan. His gaze deepened, but his face remained indifferent. He said, “Young Madam, what brings you here?” Xun Qianhuan glanced at him coldly: “When I come is none of your business.” Seeing her unfriendly attitude, Enke’s expression didn’t change much. He still smiled and said, “No, no, no, Young Madam, this is your home. No one has the right to interfere, let alone a mere driver like me.” “Is that so?” Xun Qianhuan’s tone was quite strange. She looked at Enke and said, “But, as far as I know, your abilities… are quite considerable!” Enke smiled: “Young Madam, forgive my ignorance, but I don’t understand what you mean.” “Where were you from November 6th to 9th?” Those were the days when she was kidnapped. Enke smiled nonchalantly and said, "Those days were my workdays, of course I was at work." Xun Qianhuan asked seriously, "And what about after work?" Enke narrowed her eyes: "Madam, what do you mean? Do you expect me to report all my private matters after work to you? Even though I'm just a lowly assistant and driver, I still have my right to privacy, don't I?" Xun Qianhuan couldn't help but exclaim, "But if your privacy is being violated, I have to find out!" "I don't understand what you're talking about." Enke's smile faded, her attitude turning serious, and she said, "I'm just an employee, my contact with you usually... no, I hardly have any contact with you usually, so how have I violated your privacy?"

Xun Qianhuan was furious, but she still couldn't fathom what kind of heart lay hidden beneath that sanctimonious facade.

She stared angrily into his eyes, staring intently!

Several images flashed through her mind; now, it wasn't just his back anymore, it was the person wearing the mask…

the mask, that's right, the mask—she had brought a similar mask!

Xun Qianhuan reached into her bag… but before she could make a move, Bei Yiwei appeared in the doorway, watching the two of them.

Enke bowed respectfully, "Boss."

Bei Yiwei nodded slightly to him, then turned his attention to Xun Qianhuan, asking, "Did you come here today to find evidence?"

"Yes!" Xun Qianhuan didn't shy away, saying, "I came to find evidence, but your subordinate hasn't said a word, so asking him is pointless."

After hearing Xun Qianhuan's words, Bei Yiwei looked at Enke and said, "Is there something you can't say?"

Enke lowered his head and said, "No, it's just that those are my personal privacy, and I don't like others knowing."

"But she wants to know, even if..." Bei Yiwei paused, then said, "For my sake, is it not allowed?"

Enke was silent for a moment. He acquiesced.

Xun Qianhuan asked, "From the 6th to the 9th, what did you do after work? Who were you with? Are there any witnesses?"

Xun Qianhuan suddenly realized that this questioning style was somewhat familiar, like a scene from a TV drama where a policeman interrogates a criminal… In her heart, regardless of her role, she didn't really have the right to ask such questions. Even a policeman needs corresponding evidence before interrogating a suspect. However, by asking him this today, she was undoubtedly disregarding his personal human rights. Overall, Xun Qianhuan felt somewhat guilty… But the allure of the truth far outweighed these thoughts!

En Keping said calmly, "My life is very simple. I live alone. After work, if my boss doesn't give me any instructions, I go straight home, eat, watch TV for a while, and then go to sleep. So many days have passed; if you ask me what I ate or what TV I watched, I can't remember."

Xun Qianhuan was slightly taken aback and also a little annoyed.

His answer sounded like he was just giving her a perfunctory answer!

"So, according to you, you haven't done anything else?"

"What do you think I would do?"

Xun Qianhuan stared at Enke: "You're only good for lying to children!"

"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."

Xun Qianhuan was furious. She pulled the mask out of her bag, and to Bei Yiwei and Enke's astonishment, she forced the mask onto Enke's face—

Enke was horrified: "Young Madam!"

Ignoring Enke's anger, Xun Qianhuan put the mask on and stared intently at Enke wearing the mask for a full three minutes. Her mind raced, finally settling on shock!

Xun Qianhuan raised her hand and forcibly put the mask on Enke's face, refusing to let go. Seeing this, Bei Yiwei had no choice but to step forward to stop Xun Qianhuan, saying, "Calm down, Qianhuan..."

Xun Qianhuan suddenly released her hand, staring sharply at Enke, her voice icy: "What do you have to say now? That day, you walked into that room wearing this mask, and then brought the food to me. I couldn't see your features, but I recognized your back, and you wearing the mask. I remember it all clearly in my mind! The person who kidnapped me was definitely you!"

Enke was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, as if she had heard a huge joke, and said, "Young Madam, you describe it so vividly, so... what is your evidence? There are many people in the world with similar or even identical backs. Based on this alone, are you going to convict me?" Xun

Qianhuan retorted, "Don't you also have no evidence to prove your innocence?"

Enke's eyes narrowed, about to speak, but was interrupted by Bei Yiwei's phone ringing. Bei Yiwei answered the phone...
