Xiao Mingyan was so furious that her veins nearly popped. This bastard child was getting more and more out of control, as expected from the son of a worthless sl*t!

She picked up her cell phone and gave Long Aotian a call. She must decide the date of the engagement today.

Before Lan Qingcheng could catch up with Long Sijue, Ye Gu stood in her way. Ye Gu stared at her expressionlessly and said, “Please take your leave, Miss Lan.”

“I want to speak to Jue for a while. I’ll leave once I’m done!” Lan Qingcheng stared at Long Sijue anxiously.

“The young master doesn’t want to speak to anyone now. When young master wants to speak to you, he’ll naturally contact you.” After Ye Gu said that, he turned and walked away.

Lan Qingcheng stared after Long Sijue as he left. She stomped her foot furiously. ‘It’s alright,’ she thought to herself. As long as Xiao Mingyan thought that she and Long Sijue had already slept together, their marital arrangement would certainly proceed as planned.

…..

When Su Qianxun arrived at the hospital, the nurses had already stitched up the wound on Su Jiye’s leg.

“Jiye, how did this happen? Doctor, how’s my younger brother’s injury?”

“We gave him twenty stitches in total. For the next few weeks, you have to be very careful with the wound. Keep it dry. He’ll need intravenous therapy for a few days to reduce inflammation and relieve the pain. I’ll prescribe some medicine for him to take home,” the doctor said.

“Young mistress, I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I didn’t take good care of Young Master Jiye.” Aunt Zhang was extremely remorseful.

“Please don’t say that. You’re doing me a favor by looking after him now. I’m very grateful to you. It’s not your fault that he’s gotten injured. You didn’t mean for that to happen.” Su Qianxun tried not to show how upset she was as she comforted Aunt Zhang, but no one could possibly know how much her heart ached.

Aunt Zhang still felt very remorseful. She blamed herself for not taking good care of Su Jiye.

Su Qianxun instructed Aunt Zhang to keep Su Jiye company for the time being. She went to get the medicine from the hospital pharmacy to bring home. When she was in the line, someone grasped her arm all of sudden. Su Qianxun turned and saw Xia Chuxi’s pale face.

Su Qianxun’s face instantly turned cold. She tried to withdraw her hand angrily, but Xia Chuxi refused to let go.

“Let go of me!”

“You still love me, don’t you? I don’t believe that you’ve gotten over me so soon!” Xia Chuxi tightened his grip on her.

Su Qianxun was just about to refute him. She suddenly sensed a gust of chilly air behind her. Out of instinct, the young woman turned around and saw Long Sijue standing in the distance with a grim look on his face.

Xia Chuxi had spotted Long Sijue too. When he took a good look at this man, a strange emotion erupted in his eyes, as though the sheet of ice on a frozen lake had cracked and shattered. In that very moment, he subconsciously pulled Su Qianxun into his arms and held her protectively.

For the first time, Xia Chuxi felt a sense of imminent danger. Back then, he always thought that it was impossible for Su Qianxun to fall out of love with him. But in this very moment, he suddenly realized that he was wrong…

“Xia Chuxi, are you nuts? Let me go!” Su Qianxun sensed the increasingly chilly aura around Long Sijue and immediately tried to shove Xia Chuxi away.

Before she even moved a finger, Long Sijue had already dashed over, pulled Xia Chuxi towards him and punched him in the face. He then instantly dragged Su Qianxun away from Xia Chuxi.

Su Qianxun saw that Long Sijue wanted to beat up Xia Chuxi again. She quickly lunged forward and put her arms around his waist. She screamed, “Ah Jue, stop beating him. He has a stab wound. He’ll die if you keep hitting him!”

Xia Chuxi nearly died of pain just by falling onto the floor. His wound was torn open again. The pain made his face turned white. His lips were trembling.

In Su Qianxun’s arms, Long Sijue’s body had become stiff. He suddenly pulled the young woman over so that they were face-to-face with each other. He clutched at her arms and asked coldly, “Are you afraid that I’ll hurt him? You came to the hospital because of him!”
