CHAPTER 131 - Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(20)
World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(20)
Xue Xue braked sharply.
The red light came on.
She turned her head.
It was still the same familiar eyebrows and eyes, which were supposed to be tender and watery, but they seemed to be filled with different souls, and the lines became sharp, like roses with thorns, and they would stung if not careful.
âGive us another chance? In what identity are you saying such words now?â
Xue Xueâs voice was flat and straightforward, but for no reason, Xi Lang could feel the turbulent undercurrent hidden beneath the surface.
Frightening.
âIâŚâ
The words started, but they couldnât go on because of the disordered thoughts in his head. It was different from the usual man who was calm and good at speaking at any time.
âBesides, give you another chance, what chance?â Xue Xue didnât let him go. âDo you want to marry me again? Or sleep with me? Is it a chance to be a husband and wife, or a chance to be friends with benefits? Huh?â
Xue Xue bit the word âfriends with benefitsâ very hard, as if it had been squeezed out from her teeth.
Xi Lang was speechless.
He never knew that Xue Xue was so eloquent, or that the woman had always been so smart. Just as his grandfather said, she just hid her edge well in front of him.
Because of love, she was so willing to compromise.
What if she doesnât give in anymore?
Xi Lang vaguely knew that some things could not be found if they were lost, and he canât have the feelings that have disappeared.
He lost Xue Ning who loved him, and now he is with Xue Ning who doesnât love him.
The moment he realized this fact, Xi Lang felt a sharp twinge in his heart that almost made him unable to breathe.
System: âXi Langâs favorability has risen to 60%, and the clientâs grievance has dropped to 70%.â
âWe are not children anymore, no one has to tolerate anyoneâs willfulness.â Xue Xue ignored the systemâs voice and just gave Xi Lang a meaningful glance. âSo itâs better to say some things through your head.â
These words made Xi Langâs face even paler, and under the reflection of the street lights, there was a bit of a bewitching beauty.
The green light came on.
Xue Xue drew her attention back again, ignoring the man sitting still like a statue in the passenger seat.
âIfâŚâ
Theăphone rang suddenly, but Xi Lang didnât care.
âIf I sayâŚâ
âYou better answer the phone first, itâs very noisy.â Xue Xue glanced at the manâs pocket that kept on ringing and vibrating. âAnd donât say if, there are not so many ifs in this world, only results.â
Xi Lang was mentally prepared for Xue Xueâs rejection.
He took out his phone with a wry smile, didnât look at the number displayed on it. He just moved rigidly across the screen and connected it.
âHello?â
âXi Lang, save meââ
The female voice that was humming slowly on the radio suddenly rose to a high pitch, which coincided with the shrill and piercing scream coming from the receiver.
Xi Lang and Xue Xue looked at each other, and both saw the shock in each otherâs eyes.
A group of men and a woman.
âThe boss asked us to invite Madam back.â
âShut up!â Yang Keqing, who was sitting on the ground in a state of panic, shouted angrily. Her usual delicate appearance was gone, and her eyes seemed to burn like a raging flame, with intense hatred. âDonât call me madam! Iâm not your damn madam!â
Everyone looked at each other.
âIâve offended.â
Later, the one with the most seniority stood up and grabbed Yang Keqingâs hand directly.
âLet go of me! You let me go! I wonât go with you!â Yang Keqing resisted violently. âMaster Hong, please tell Wang Zhentao to let me go. Please, I beg you. What kind of woman does he want? Why canât he let me go? Master Hong, please, I really donât want to go backâŚâ
A womanâs tears are of no use to a man who is used to licking blood on the tip of a knife and has already developed a heart of stone.
âAs long as you are the boss woman, he wonât look on any other women.â When Master Hong said this, he sounded very kind, but he didnât show any mercy. He skillfully exerted his strength without leaving any trace, but the woman had to stand up according to his strength. âYou, ah better recognize what is good or bad for you.â
âNo! I donât want! Let go! Go away! Ah!â
Yang Keqing seemed to go crazy suddenly. She lowered her head and bit on Master Hongâs thick forearm, which was exposed outside. She was as mad as if she wanted to bite off a piece of the other partyâs meat.
Master Hong, who didnât expect her to do this trick, cried out in pain, and subconsciously let go of Yang Keqingâs hand.
Because of the sudden change, the people around didnât react immediately, so Yang Keqing took the opportunity to run out.
âDonât worry about me! Catch her! Hurry up!â Master Hongâs eyes became very fierce. âShe canât run away, catch her! Quick!â
Yang Keqing was still wearing high heels, and she lost most of her strength because of the struggle just now.
She didnât dare to look back, but when she heard the cluttered footsteps getting closer and closer, she could not help but feel desperate.
Who would like to be a canary carefully kept in a cage after enjoying freedom?
When her wrist was grabbed, Yang Keqing wanted to kill herself.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, she heard a scream from behind.
She opened her eyes suddenly.
The man standing in front of her was Xi Lang.
A hero who fell from the sky.
At the moment, the tears in Yang Keqingâs eyes fell. It was not only the release of the pressure that suddenly collapsed after her anxiety reached extreme, but also the fireworks of indescribable gratitude and joy in her heart. From this moment, her gaze at Xi Lang changed, with full of emotions.
But Xi Lang didnât pay that much attention, he just pulled Yang Keqing behind him and pushed her hard.
âHurry up and run!â
âBut youâŚâ
âDonât worry, I have called the police!â Xi Lang launched several attacks in a row. âYou run first! Hurry up!â
As soon as they heard the alarm, the faces of several men changed, including Master Hong, who was at the rear.
