Chapter 668: She Felt Bad For Him

Xia Xiaofu headed towards the door. Her footsteps were very hasty, but because she wanted to chase after Ou Luoxi, she was uncareful and crashed into a worker.

“I am sorry.” Xia Xiaofu apologized.

“It’s okay.” The service staff member had a very low cap on his head. He did not look at Ou Luoxi, and he held a tray of red wine as he walked over to Senior Ou’s side.

Xia Xiaofu found this worker’s behavior odd. She had a better look at the worker. She took in a breath of cold air and said, “Grandpa Ou, be careful!”

Xia Xiaofu let out a scream.

The worker had hidden a sharp knife underneath the tray of red wine.

This shout alarmed everyone present. The staff member stood before Old Master Ou, and he pushed the tray of alcohol, before taking a knife in his hand as he was about to stab Old Master Ou.

“Ah!” Upon looking at the knife, the guests present were all alarmed and covered their ears as they ran away frantically. Everyone was running off for their lives, and the entire scene was so chaotic.

Xia Xiaofu rushed towards Old Master Ou’s side, but she was really unable to get there in time. The sharp knife was quickly thrust towards Old Master Ou’s chest.

At this critical moment, Xia Xiaofu felt a shadow weave through the guests that were running away as he came over, and the sharp knife was grabbed. The staff member was kicked in the stomach and immediately fell to the floor.

Xia Xiaofu took large breaths of air as she panted. It was Ou Luoxi.

Ou Luoxi had come over.

Ou Luoxi held the knife in one hand. The sharp blade of the knife injured his skin, and his right hand was momentarily covered in red blood.

Xia Xiaofu looked at the drops of red blood that was on the floor, and her legs went soft immediately. “Luoxi…” She was about to step forward.

At this moment, those guests that were running for their lives had calmed down. They stopped running, and they all pretended to care for Old Master Ou as they gathered around him. “Old Master, how are you feeling right now? Did you get frightened just now? Do we have to call a doctor?”

Ou Ze also ran over. He lifted the collar of the service worker and threw him towards Old Master Ou before loudly saying, “Someone come over. Get someone to drag him away. I will question him later personally.”

“Yes!” There were a few bodyguards dressed in black that ran in quickly.

Ou Ze knelt down in front of Old Master Ou on one knee amidst the crowds. He had a serious yet nervous expression on his face as he said, “Grandpa, are you okay? It is probably an assailant sent over by a competitor in the industry. I will have a plan to make him speak later. I want to see who has such guts to harm my grandfather.”

Old Master Ou was visibly frightened. His face was pale. He patted Ou Ze’s hand and said, “Ou Ze, Grandpa is fine. Did you get injured?”

“I am fine, Grandpa.”

The grandfather and grandson pair were caring for one another. The guests were all around them. Xia Xiaofu went on her tiptoes to search for Ou Luoxi. When the guests all rushed over just now, he was directly pushed towards the back.

Xia Xiaofu saw Ou Luoxi, Ou Luoxi left from the back of the crowd, and he exited the large doors of the main hall.

Xia Xiaofu only felt her heart was pulled. It was in so much pain, his injured right hand was kneaded into a fist as he drooped it by his side. The sleeve of the green knitted sweater was very huge, and it perfectly blocked his injury from view. It was obvious that he was the one who’d saved Old Master Ou, but everyone present on the scene did not even glance over at him, and there was also no one that cared about him. His back profile looked so long and lonely.

“Luoxi…” Xia Xiaofu lifted her heels and chased after him.

…

Xia Xiaofu ran into the corridor and already did not see any sign of Ou Luoxi around. She took the car keys out from her bag and immediately went down to the basement carpark. She took her phone out and dialed Ning Qing’s phone number. “Hello, Ning Qing, can you send Ou Luoxi’s address to me?”

Ning Qing’s text message came back very quickly. Xia Xiaofu passed by a pharmacy and bought some medication, and she drove over to Ou Luoxi’s villa.

Ou Luoxi was a famous celebrity. The villa that he was living in could be considered to be a luxury villa. It was European in design. There was a large lawn in front of the villa, and it was vast and expansive.

Xia Xiaofu parked the car on the lawn before she walked over to the main doors of the villa, and she pressed the doorbell.

No one came out to open the door.

Xia Xiaofu continued to press the doorbell.

Still, no one answered the door.

It was already nine o’clock at night. In autumn, the sky went dark very early. There was a cold breeze in the air. Xia Xiaofu was still dressed in a sleeveless evening gown, and she was shivering in the cold.

She sat down on the steps in front of the villa. She hugged herself with her slim arm, and she took her phone out to give Ou Luoxi a call.

The melodious ringtone reverberated through the living room. Ou Luoxi was standing in the living room inside the villa at that moment. There was someone by his side. It was Ou Ze, who was dressed in a suit.

Both of them stood before the French windows. Ou Ze used an index finger to lift the corner of the curtain to have a look, and he saw Xia Xiaofu, who was seated outside the door at this moment.

Xia Xiaofu was calling someone. Ou Luoxi’s phone was ringing. Ou Ze had a cold and sinister smile on the corners of his lips.

“Luoxi, have you been interacting with Xiao Fu closely recently?” Ou Ze asked him.

Ou Luoxi looked through the French windows to look at Xia Xiaofu, who was outside the door, and he did not say anything.

Ou Ze was used to his silence. This did not affect what he wanted to say. “Luoxi, do you know who Xiaofu is? She is my fiancée. She is also your sister-in-law. Between a woman and a man, especially between a brother-in-law and sister-in-law, both of you should maintain an appropriate distance. If not, others would misunderstand.”

Ou Ze placed one hand in his pocket. He used another hand to pat Ou Luoxi’s shoulders as he said, “Luoxi, I do not know if you have learned this yet, some women, you are unable to touch them. Humans are different from beasts. Beasts…can have complicated relations, but humans cannot do so because humans find it…dirty!

“Luoxi, I believe you are not someone like that. Your mother has harmed the entire Ou family, but I am still treating you as a younger brother. Otherwise, I would not have brought you back from the depths of the mountain. Luoxi, you would not be so cruel towards your Older Brother, right? You would not harm our Ou family again, right?”

Ou Luoxi did not have any expression on his face. He moved his thin, light-pink lips as he said, “I know.”

“Ha, haha…” Ou Ze applauded, and he squinted his eyes up as he said, “That’s good then. I just knew that Luoxi, you would be my good younger brother forever. Oh right, there is something. Older Brother has been negotiating a business deal recently. The opposing company’s President Fang is a little hard to settle. He admires the fame that you have Luoxi; he is your fan. Tomorrow night, he wants to have a meal with you. Luoxi, for Older Brother, for our Ou family, you definitely have to turn up.”

Ou Luoxi nodded his head.

Ou Ze was satisfied as he withdrew his gaze. He looked over at Xia Xiaofu who was sitting on the steps. The girl had already stood up and driven away.

“Luoxi, Older Brother will leave then.” Ou Ze turned around.

As he spoke, Ou Ze seemed to remember something. He looked at Ou Luoxi’s right hand and said, “Luoxi, how is the wound on your hand? Do you need Older Brother to get a doctor for you?”

Ou Luoxi’s hand was not bandaged for the entire time. The red blood was all dried up, and he shook his head as he said, “I am fine. It’s a small injury.”

“That’s good then.” Ou Ze opened the door of the villa. His subordinate drove a luxury vehicle over, and someone opened the back door of the car. Ou Ze sat inside, and the luxury vehicle cruised off into the distance.

…

After the world regained its silence, Ou Luoxi moved his body. He lifted his long legs and was about to open the door before he stood at the steps that Xia Xiaofu had just been seated on.

There was a small bag that was placed at the corner of the steps. Ou Luoxi squatted down and opened the bag to have a look.

The bag was filled with medication.

Ou Luoxi stretched his hand out to touch the medication. He touched it carefully thrice before he held the bag in his palms. He turned back to go inside the villa.

He took his phone out. He had a voice message.

Ding! He pressed on the button to open the message. Xia Xiaofu’s gentle and moving voice rang out in the air as she said, “Hello, Ou Luoxi, did you not go back home? I just came over to your house, but you were not around. I placed some medicine at the steps of your home.

“Ou Luoxi, no matter what anyone else thinks, you are the best inside my heart. You cannot choose your own mother, so you don’t have to feel guilty. There are many things on earth that are unable to be controlled, as long as we stay true to ourselves, everything will be fine.

“Ou Luoxi, take care of the injury on your hand well. I saw you bleeding so much just to save Old Master Ou. I gotta go. Good night.”

The girl’s voice disappeared.

Ou Luoxi put his phone away, and at this moment, Little Fourth wagged its tail as he slowly walked over from the balcony. “Woof!” It let out a bark towards Ou Luoxi, and its sparkling eyes were looking over at the medicine that Ou Luoxi was holding in his hands.

Ou Luoxi stooped down to touch Little Fourth’s head and softly said, “Someone gave me this.”

“Woof!” Little Fourth barked again.

Ou Luoxi patted its head before he shook his. “You cannot. You cannot like her.”

“Woo.” Little Fourth was immediately listless and curled up by the side of Ou Luoxi’s legs.

Ou Luoxi ruffled the soft fur on Little Fourth’s body. His mind went back to think about that small, egg-shaped face. Maybe she would never find out. The first time he met her was when she was 19.

At that time, she was lost in the depths of the mountain. His lone wolf had a whiff of a human’s scent and rushed over to pounce on her. Her forehead had hit a rock and she fainted immediately. He’d worked hard to communicate with the lone wolf before he rescued her.

He brought her over to a cave, and during those few days, she was running a low fever. Her body was very cold. He lit a bonfire before he moved his hands to remove the clothes on her body. He wanted to hug her and give her warmth, but she protected herself fervently and even bit him.

Although she’d bitten him, she fainted again very quickly. He removed the clothes that she was wearing and hugged her in his embrace tightly, and they spent a few nights like this.

She was the first person that he’d seen in those ten years.

Similarly, she was the first girl that he’d seen in his entire life.

He remembered her deeply.

After that, he left the cave to search for food. When he returned, he saw that she was awake, and Ou Ze held her in his arms. At that time, her face very red as she stretched her slim fair hands out to hug Ou Ze’s neck, and Ou Ze kissed her hair.

Ou Ze brought her away.

After that, Ou Ze came looking for him. His lone wolf died due to illness, and he went out of the depths of the mountain with Ou Ze and returned back to the Ou family.

He always remembered her.

Ou Luoxi had a lonely smile on his face. He could not. She belonged to Older Brother. He could not…

…

The next day, Xia Xiaofu was not concentrating fully. She could not stop checking her phone, waiting for Ou Luoxi to reply, but he did not do so.

Xia Xiaofu was furious and clenched her teeth. Did he dare to ignore her even further?

Even if he did not like her, he should also give her a reply based on respect, right?

At night, her assistant, Xiao Li, and a few young ladies from the makeup team dragged her to a dinner. Xia Xiaofu was feeling bored, so she agreed to it. The group of people went to a hotel and reserved a private room.

Halfway through dinner, Xiao Li stood up and said, “Xiaofu, I have to go to the bathroom.”

“Okay okay. Go quickly.” Xia Xiaofu waved her hands.

After around ten minutes, Xiao Li returned back.

Xia Xiaofu was drinking juice. Others teased her and said, “Xiao Li, what did you go to do? You went to the toilet for ten minutes. We were preparing to catch you back here.”

Xiao Li quickly placed her finger on her lips as she shushed them with a “shh!” before she secretly said, “Do you know who I saw just now?”

“Who? Say it.”

“Ou Luoxi.”

“What?” Everyone was excited.

Xia Xiaofu’s small hand that was holding onto the glass of juice also froze, and she turned her gaze to the side to look at Xiao Li, who was by her side.

Xiao Li’s face was very excited. She lowered her volume and said, “Ou Luoxi was in the neighbouring private room just now. Just now when I passed by, a service worker was serving food inside. I glanced inside the room, and Ou Luoxi was having a meal together with the president of some company.”

“I don’t think that’s right, Ou Luoxi eating a meal with a President. Is it just two men alone?”

“It is just two men. Let me tell you all, I know that President. I heard my best friend say that this President has very weird taste. He likes to play around with the young handsome actors in the entertainment industry.”

“Oh my gosh!” Everyone widened their eyes and gasped, “Then Ou Luoxi’s together with that President?”

“I cannot speak recklessly regarding that, but I saw that the President’s gaze was fixed on Ou Luoxi. It was just as if he hated that he could not rip his clothes off.”

This topic made everyone excited. Everyone was discussing with one another excitedly as they said, “I have long heard that Ou Luoxi seems to have accompanied others to drink. The price of him going to accompany to drink is way higher than those top actresses.”

“But that isn’t too weird. Ou Luoxi looks so beautiful. Those Presidents and Big Bosses who like men would all like looking at him. A person like Ou Luoxi, he is totally their target.”

Everyone was chatting merrily with one another. There was a sudden slap! Xia Xiaofu hit the table.

Everyone was instantly silent.

“Xiaofu, what’s wrong?”

Xia Xiaofu did not have a good expression on her face as she looked at the group. “How many rumours in the entertainment industry are true? In the future, don’t discuss this type of topic. It is not for you all to debate on what kind of person Ou Luoxi is. Be careful. If it leaks, all of you guys will find yourselves in trouble.”

Everyone was instantly afraid and said, “Yes.”

“I am done eating. I will be leaving now.” Xia Xiaofu took her bag as she stood up to leave.

As the door of the private room shut, everyone was discussing among themselves, “What is wrong with Xiaofu today? We have been working with Xiaofu for the past three years. I have never seen Xiaofu throw a tantrum before.”

“That’s right Xiaofu seems not to like us discussing Ou Luoxi.”

…

Xia Xiaofu was walking down the corridor. She found that private room, but there was already no one inside, and the service worker was clearing the tables.

Xia Xiaofu quickly took the lift and went to the basement carpark. She searched around frantically for Ou Luoxi.

As she expected, in a parking lot, in front of a luxury car, a President in his forties, he had a gentle and refined expression on his face as he politely opened the door of the front passenger seat, and Ou Luoxi was about to get inside.

Xia Xiaofu had a look, and she felt an unfriendly chill. She’d seen many cases where men opened doors for women, but it was really her first time seeing a man open the car door for another man.

She quickly went over and said, “Ou Luoxi, stand right there.”

Ou Luoxi saw this familiar figure, and he slowly stood up straight. He turned his gaze to the side to look over at Xia Xiaofu who was running over to him.
