99 Escapes From the Prideful President - C60
Shen Xi Yao’s face immediately turned pale. She frantically took out her cellphone from her backpack and looked at the date she had today. She fell silent.
Ling An brought out the explanation he had prepared earlier, “This week, the CEO wants to receive distinguished guests at home. Miss, you’re not fit to be at home.”
The first thing that came to Yu Anhui’s mind was that Shen Mo Ke would bring the bewitching woman home to do something that would make her blush and her heart beat faster. Otherwise, how could they not return home?
Yu Anhui was already angry, “Ling An, tell me, did this VIP Shen Mo Ke have another woman outside?”
Ling An knew that Yu An wasn’t easy to fool, but once the lie started, it would go around in circles with a hundred lies.
“This is related to the company’s secrets, so I can’t reveal it.” Ling An could be said to be very conscientious, answering Yu Anxin’s questions one by one. This time, he did not lie.
The life of the CEO would affect the entire S.Y group!
Shen Xi Yao tugged on the corner of Yu Anhui’s shirt, “Forget it, Little Nian. We’re going to be late.”
Yu An looked at Shen Xi Yao strangely. Intuition told her that Shen Xi Yao seemed to know something, so she did not make things difficult for Ling An anymore. The two of them waved at him, “Goodbye, Ling An!”
Ling An heaved a sigh of relief as he replied with a smile, “Goodbye Miss, you can call me if you need anything.”
He was hinting that if the two of them ran into any problems at school, they could ask for his help.
Since he would say that, it was naturally because of Shen Mo Ke’s instructions. Yu An nodded, and pulled Shen Xi Yao along as he ran into the school.
Yu Anhui looked around, but the bell for class had already rang. Everyone was running towards the classroom, so there weren’t many people around. Yu Anhui frowned, “Xi Yao, do you know the reason?”
Shen Xi Yao nervously pinched her fingers, “I …” “I don’t know.”
Seeing her pretend to be stupid, Yu An felt even more curious. Just who was that so-called distinguished guest?
“Xi Yao, am I your sister-in-law?” Yu An made up his mind. If he didn’t get the answer from Shen Xi Yao, he wouldn’t go to class. In any case, it didn’t matter whether he attended or not. Furthermore, he was already late.
Shen Xi Yao didn’t know why Yu An Nian would suddenly change the topic. She slowly raised her head and looked at Yu An Nian.
The morning sun shone down and they stood under a tree. The leaves cast a shadow on her skin, making it seem that her skin was even whiter and the water tender. Shen Xi Yao, as a girl, couldn’t help but feel envious.
A pair of limpid eyes that seemed to be able to speak. Under her tall and straight nose were those two cherry blossom powder lips. It made people restless. They wanted to pounce over and taste the delicacy with a bite.
The white school uniform accentuated her slender waist, and below her was a black pleated skirt. The wind blew, and the skirt faintly floated in the air with a beautiful curve, almost all of them having two slender legs. Although it was the uniform of the school uniform, she still wore the unreachable goddess Fan’er.
Shen Xi Yao put her hands behind her back and pinched her arms. The pain brought a hint of clarity to her, if possible, I didn’t want you to be my sister-in-law.
However, in the end, these words were still stuck in her throat. Shen Xi Yao gave a stiff smile, “Of course!”
Yu Anhui couldn’t tell that something was wrong with her, all she could think of was that Shen Mo Ke might very well have cheated, “Xi Yao, tell me, why can’t you go back to the villa and stay this week?”
Shen Xi Yao was extremely hesitant. If he told her the real reason, what if it were to leak out? The consequences would be dire.
On the other hand, she didn’t want to lie to Yu Anhui. Furthermore, she was her big brother’s woman, so shouldn’t her brother’s abnormality tell her that she was fine?
She had already seen through the care her brother had towards her over the past few days at the Scenic Spot villa. She had told herself more than once that she should let go of him.
Shen Xi Yao exhaled a mouthful of impure air and opened her eyes once again. Her gaze towards Yu An Nian had already become a lot more normal, “Actually, every week during this month, Big Brother forbids me from returning to the villa.”
Yu An was stunned for a moment. What on earth was the reason that even Shen Xi Yao could not go back?
Before Shen Xi Yao could finish her sentence, her eyes turned red as she clenched her fists, “Because, it’s going to be the day of father and mother’s sacrifices.”
Shen Xi Yao bit her lower lip and tried her best not to let herself cry, “When I was young, my big brother and my mom and I went on a trip together, and I was brought along by grandma, but in the end … “Results…”
“I heard Grandma say that Mum threw Big Bro out of the window in order to save Big Bro. That car fell right down the cliff in front of Big Bro, and when they were found, although Dad used his own body to protect Mom, both of them had no signs of life. Dad’s body was blown into a bloody mess and he couldn’t even identify who he was …”
Yu Anhui could only feel her heart throbbing in pain. She pulled Shen Xi Yao, whose shoulders were trembling, into her embrace. She did not speak at all, but it was the most silent form of consolation.
Under such a life-threatening situation, it was a miracle that Shen Mo Ke was able to survive. The greatness of motherly love, the love between husband and wife … When Shen Mo Ke saw this when he was young, his heart must have been in so much pain that it was about to break.
Gradually, Shen Xi Yao stopped sobbing. Yu An Nian used a tissue to wipe the remaining tears off her face, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to cause you pain.”
Shen Xi Yao suddenly grabbed Yu Anhui’s wrist tightly, her nose had been red from crying before, “Little Nian, don’t leave Big Bro for the rest of your life, okay?”
My whole life…
Yu Anxin’s hands paused, in her mind, she once again thought of Shen Mo Ke’s handsome appearance. Last night, she had also promised him that she would not let go of him for the rest of her life.
Gu Mingyang’s betrayal was still deeply engraved in her heart. She had heard a saying: Love must not be touched. Once touched, it would eat away at your heart like it was a drug addict.
Gu Mingyang hadn’t even made her love him that deeply and he had already caused her so much pain. All of the relationships they’d had over the years were just for fun. Turning around and not hesitating at all, she was already tired.
Should she try and take it seriously again? After all, not everyone was as bad as Gu Mingyang.
Yu An knew that he could not completely agree to Shen Xi Yao’s request, and spoke with a solemn expression: “Xi Yao, I’m willing to give it a try.”
It would also be the last time. She would abandon everything to try, and if she still couldn’t reach the end, then she would never again touch this damned thing called love in her life.
Shen Xi Yao smiled happily, like a sincere child who had just received her beloved candy. At the same time, she also silently told herself in her heart that it was time to let go.
