Chapter 43: Walking Into A Trap
She wondered why Sun Liangliang loved him so much that she would go to great lengths for him."Where are you now"..."Oh, I'm going to the hospital. What's wrong"..."Lingling, I have caused you so much...Chapter 43: Falling Into A Trap
Yan Luoxi knew that once she fell into the hands of the cunning Ming Zixi today, it would be difficult to escape easily. And if Lian An continued acting like this, she might truly become a criminal. She hesitantly asked Ming Zixi, "If I go with you to see Lian An, he... won't illegally detain me, right"
It's hard to say for sure.
Ming Zixi looked at Lian An's craziness over the past two days and was actually doubtful that if he found Yan Luoxi, he might illegally imprison her, treating her like a sex slave.
He thought this in his heart but showed no signs on his face. Instead, he put on an innocent expression: "Absolutely not! Lian An has been deeply remorseful for the harm caused by what he did before. He regrets it to death and swears that he will never treat you like that again.
Moreover, Junhe and I have already scolded him about how he should be gentle and loving with girls, not like how he acted before, taking things forcefully and being overbearing..."
Hearing Ming Zixi's words, Yan Luoxi half-believed him as she walked toward the car. She forgot that Lian An was originally short-tempered, becoming even more uncontrollable when angry—no one could touch his temper. Yet, Ming Zixi and Shao Junhe still dared to scold him.
Watching Yan Luoxi finally get into his black European luxury car, Ming Zixi quickly locked the doors and started the vehicle as if afraid she would run away. He exhaled a sigh of relief secretly before sending a message to Lian An who was anxiously cursing him at home.
Lian An, sitting on the sofa angrily scolding Shao Junhe for blaming Ming Zixi, immediately lit up upon receiving Ming Zixi's text. He changed his tone and praised him: "Who would have thought Who would've guessed that Second Brother Ming is actually a capable and efficient person who managed to find Yan Luoxi so quickly!"
With a beaming smile, he bounced into the bathroom, hurriedly washing up and changing clothes. Since Yan Luoxi was finally persuaded back, he wanted to make amends perfectly to avoid her disliking him.
Shao Junhe watched Li An, who had just been listless and lifeless, suddenly become lively. He didn't know whether to feel happy for him or sad for himself. Shao Junhe had liked Yan Luoxi since he was young, but compared to Li An's straightforward approach of taking the initiative, his own feelings were slow by a considerable margin.
Now that Yan Luoxi and Li An were together like this, it was clear that Li An truly had feelings for her. Although the way he expressed his love was unconventional, Shao Junhe could see through the intense emotion in his eyes.
A friend's wife is not to be trifled with; Shao Junhe couldn't entertain any inappropriate thoughts about Yan Luoxi anymore and could only hope that these two people he cared deeply about would find true happiness.
After Li An finished washing up and changed his clothes, he sat on the sofa waiting for Yan Luoxi to return. Perhaps because of his impatience, time seemed to drag on endlessly, making him increasingly anxious; his expression gradually worsened: "What driver is Ming Zixi using He hasn't returned yet after such a long time!"
Shao Junhe was just about to comfort him when the doorbell rang. Presumably, it was Ming Zixi returning, so he hurried over to open the door.
The moment Yan Luoxi entered with Ming Zixi, Li An, who had been anxiously waiting on the sofa for a long time, immediately stood up and happily rushed towards them, his face lighting up because of her smile.
Seeing Yan Luoxi, all the previous impatience, anger, and grievances vanished instantly.
In just one day apart, Yan Luoxi seemed to have lost weight; standing there in a dress made her look frail and pitiable.
Li An felt very upset and walked up to Yan Luoxi, reaching out his hand to touch her pale, haggard face: "Luoxi, you're back. Have you eaten Are you tired"
There were still other people in the room; Li An was being rather unrestrained.
Yan Luoxi's face turned red all of a sudden, and she quickly took a step back, stammering, "You... What do you want Just say it... Don't be so touchy-feely..."
"Okay, whatever you say goes," Li An hurriedly put down his hands: "I just saw that your complexion wasn’t good and thought you were tired!"
His tone was incredibly affectionate and apologetic, making Ming Zixi and Shao Junhe feel embarrassed. This wasn't the high-and-mighty Li An they knew; when had he ever spoken like this
Yan Luoxi only darkened her face and didn’t look at Li An as she said coldly, "Mr. Ming said you have something to talk to me about, so hurry up and say it!"
Li An was momentarily confused and looked towards Ming Zixi in bewilderment. Today's goal for Ming Zixi was merely to help Li An get her back; he wouldn’t interfere with whatever happened next. Whether Li An wanted to coax, persuade, or even resort to force, that was up to him.
Ming Zixi gave a signal to Shao Junhe standing by the side, and the two of them didn't even say goodbye before getting up to leave.
Seeing this, Yan Luoxi felt anxious. She took two steps towards the door and cried out in alarm, "Don’t go! I don’t want to be alone with him!"
The moment caused Li An's face to change instantly. Yan Luoxi’s actions and words stung his tender self-esteem.
He held his breath tightly, clenching his fists, as the joy in his heart turned icy cold. It seemed that the person he had been anxious about, agonizing over, and pining for all night was actually treating him like this.
To her, it appeared that he was nothing more than a devil.
When Yan Luoxi slammed the door and left that day, Li An was extremely furious. Unable to find her anywhere, his anger flared even higher. He thought to himself, "What kind of woman can't I have Whether willowy or plump, all I need to do is decide."
Why did he need to go through such trouble and act so pathetically just to look for this stubborn girl
But somehow, there seemed to be a mysterious charm about Yan Luoxi. After getting her once, he found himself wanting more, like an addict who could not stop.
Li An knew that his current infatuated and foolish appearance would definitely become the laughing stock of Ming Zixi and others in the future. They might either laugh him to death or drown him with their saliva.
But he just couldn't let go of Yan Luoxi, both angry and trying to comfort himself at the same time. He knew it was because he had acted too harshly that she became so upset. Once he found her, all he needed to do was appease her temper and everything would be fine.
What he didn't expect was Yan Luoxi refusing even to share a room with him; he seemed as terrifying as a raging flood or an ugly monster!
Every part of his body, every organ, was in agony.
Ming Zixi noticed the change on Li An's face and immediately felt something amiss. He quickly tried to comfort Yan Luoxi: "You two have things to talk about, so it wouldn't be convenient for us to stay here anymore. We'll wait outside in the hallway then!"
Yan Luoxi turned around nervously to glance at Li An and seemed somewhat uneasy, still holding onto the door.
Sao Junhe was quite surprised by Yan Luoxi's fearful appearance.and bite like Xiaohuan.With ease, she kicked the charging "mad dog" to the ground and then stepped forward, placing her foot on Xiaohuan's chest. "Aren't you one to talk about rules Today, I'll teach...
