Military Young Master’s Sweetheart - Chapter 35

Xiahou Yong’s words made Xia Xingyu feel enlightened. In just a few seconds, cold sweat had broken out on her back.

Did he know everything about what happened in the city?

Xia Xingyu’s heart skipped a beat before she smiled and took Xiahou Yong’s arm, saying, “Dad, don’t joke with me. I’m still young.”

As he was talking, Xia Ying came down from upstairs. Xia Xingyu had obviously seen the two yesterday, but he didn’t expect them to return to Quan Cheng today.

“Elder sister, you’re finally back. You’ve stayed in the city for so many days just for a man. Don’t you know how worried I am?”

As Xia Ying spoke, she cast a meaningful glance at Xiahou Yong. There was a trace of craftiness in her smile that was as shrewd as a fox’s.

Hehe, Xia Xingyu heard this and really wanted to laugh. She was like a shadow following him around the city, monitoring him. What was there to worry about?

Oh right, she was probably worried that Xia Xingyu had snatched Fu Guoqian away.

Thinking of this, Xia Xingyue curled her red lips and said a few words.

“With Brother National Authority protecting me, how could I possibly be alright?”

With this said, Xia Ying’s expression instantly changed. Fu Guoqian had repeatedly gone to the army to look for Xia Xinyu. It wasn’t that she didn’t know!

“Then should I congratulate big sister on bringing back two men?”

This sentence seemed to have come out from the gaps between Xia Ying’s teeth. When she thought of the scene of Fu Guoqian and Xia Xingyu embracing at the entrance of the army that day, she gnashed her teeth in hatred.

Xia Xingyu heard this and acted like she was shy. He covered his face and chuckled lightly.

“Lil ‘Ying, what are you saying? I’m going to be embarrassed.”

Xia Ying didn’t expect Xia Xingyu to not feel ashamed about this matter and was instead very proud about it. This made him even more unhappy.

“Are you still embarrassed?”

Xia Ying glanced at her with extreme disdain. He still wanted to say something, but suddenly heard Ning Xi’s reprimand.

“Lil ‘Ying, you really have no rules when you speak right now. Xingyu is your sister, what’s the meaning of your sarcasm?”

The moment Ning Xi opened her mouth, Xia Ying naturally didn’t dare to refute. She looked pitifully at Xiahou, but her father, who doted on her, valued the big picture so much. How could he possibly care about her little thoughts?

“Mom, I’m just too worried about sister. I mean no harm.”

Xia Ying lowered her head. This pitiful appearance made it hard for people to blame her.

Xia Xingyu’s mind was filled with thoughts of how to save Shen Peian, but now that Xia Ying was defeated, she couldn’t be bothered to add insult to injury.

“Dad, my bodyguard… Can you pick him up now? ”

She looked at Xiahou Yong with a harmless expression. Although this wasn’t the best time to bring up this matter, she couldn’t help but worry when she thought of how Shen Peian had fallen into Fu Guoqian’s hands.

Xiahou Yong’s expression didn’t look too good when he heard Xia Xingyu’s words.

He was still thinking about how to deal with Shen Peian, but Xia Xingyu kept forcing him to release her.

“I have my own plans for this matter, so you don’t need to ask.”

Xiahou Yong pulled his hand away and looked at Ning Xi.

In his heart, he was afraid that Ning Xi wasn’t happy. After all, they had caused such a ruckus this time, and they hadn’t even left a shred of face for Ning Xi.

Ning Xi seemed to have sensed Xiahou Yong’s thoughts, and after looking at Xia Xingyu, she slowly opened her mouth.

“That kid, Payan, has been with the star elm for so long, and he’s not a bad guy. Who’s going to protect the star elm if you keep it under control like this?”

She looked displeased as she spoke. How could Xiahou Yong not be moved by such discontent?

“Alright, I’ll get someone to send him back later.”

Xiahou Yong breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could control Shen Peian in the city, there shouldn’t be any big problems.

If he didn’t release her, it would be no different from clashing with Ning Xi on the surface. He had spent half his life chasing after this woman, but he still couldn’t hurt Ning Xi’s heart.

Hearing this, Xia Xingyu finally felt relieved. She was worried about Shen Peian, and at this time, she really needed him at her side.

After waiting nervously for a long time, Fu Guoqian personally sent Shen Peian back.

He grabbed Shen Peian’s arm with one hand and threw him to the side. Such brutality was really despicable.

“Xingyu, the person has already brought it back to you. I wonder if you have time tomorrow, I would like to treat you to a meal.”

Fu Guoqian had no idea where he had gotten his confidence as he started to speak arrogantly.

Xia Xingyu lightly frowned and wanted to reject him, but when she thought of her plan, she hid the dissatisfaction in her heart.

“I have time.”

Xia Xingyu’s voice was very light, and Shen Peian could clearly see the change in her expression.

Suddenly, he seemed to understand the reason behind Xia Xingyu’s improved attitude towards Fu Guojian.

“It just so happens that I have the time to accompany you.”

He sat down on the sofa. His face was pale, and cold sweat was trickling down his forehead.

He had just punched Shen Peian in the ribs, which must have been broken by now.

When Fu Guoqian heard Shen Peian’s words, he shot a sharp glance at him. Did he really think that two punches from Shen Peian would be enough to intimidate him? Ridiculous.

“I don’t want to see you tomorrow.”

Fu Guoqian’s arrogant appearance was extremely similar to that of a peacock who had always been flirting with others. No one knew where he had gotten so much confidence.

Xia Xingyu looked at the two of them and felt that Fu Guoqian was truly laughable.

“He’s my bodyguard. If you don’t want to see him, then I won’t go.”

Xia Xingyu’s voice was unhurried. She walked to Shen Peian’s side and helped him up.

When Fu Guoqian saw this scene, he was infuriated, but he didn’t dare to say anything. Firstly, Xia Xingyu was not his woman, and secondly, he didn’t have any supreme authority or status.

Shen Peian was protected by Xia Xingyu, but he could only live like a human being in the city.

“Alright, since you like bringing pets, then I have nothing else to say.”

Fu Guoqian shrugged his shoulders after he finished speaking and walked out with his arms spread out.

For a moment, only Xia Xingyu and Shen Peian were left in the living room. They looked at each other and laughed.

“How are you?”

Xia Xingyu asked worriedly. After all, Shen Pei An’s face didn’t look good.

“I’m fine.”

Shen Peian frowned slightly. This small injury was nothing to him.

However, Xia Xingyu insisted on taking him to the hospital. They had just dealt with it, but didn’t expect to meet Xia Ying at the hospital.

Xia Ying was too preoccupied to see them. She went to the obstetrics and gynecology department, which surprised Xia Xingyu as if she had discovered a new continent.

“Ah, Shen Peian, Xia Ying seems to be pregnant!”
