Chapter 699 - How Old Is The Child? (1/2)
Xia Xiaofu felt as if a needle was pricking her heart, and she was in numb pain.
She tried to think back to the time when they’d reunited. He was badly injured then. His leg was injured, and he was limping. She never dared to imagine that he would recover so well, and there was a woman as pretty as a flower by his side…
Xia Xiaofu turned around feeling all lonely, and she walked away.
…
Inside the relaxation room, Gong Ling asked, “Older Brother Gong Ming, what’s wrong? Who are you looking at?”
Gong Ling followed Ou Luoxi’s gaze outside.
Ou Luoxi retracted his gaze. He’d known for some time that Xia Xiaofu was there.
He stretched his hands out to move Gong Ling’s small hands that were placed on his neck and said, “Go and play on your own first. I have to discuss some matters with Ah Li.”
“Don’t…”
“Ah Li.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Ah Li walked inside.
Gong Ling pouted her small pink lips. She was angry as she pulled faces at Ou Luoxi’s back profile. Fine! If he wanted her to play on her own, she’d walk out on her own. She was curious as she went to take a look at this Ou Corporation.
…
Xia Xiaofu was not concentrating as she took a few steps away, and at that moment, the main doors of the office suddenly opened, and Ou Ze walked out.
“Why are you here?” Ou Ze asked Xia Xiaofu.
Xia Xiaofu did not want to bother with him, so she turned around and left.
But she was unable to leave. Her slim wrist was stuck in Ou Ze’s hand, and Ou Ze dragged her into the office forcefully.
“Ou Ze, let go!”
Ou Ze shook roughly Xia Xiaofu’s small hand. Xia Xiaofu did not have a stable footing, and she stumbled and crashed onto the desk.
“Sii.” She teared up immediately due to the pain.
At this moment, Ou Ze stepped forward, and he pointed towards her nose as he chided her, “Xia Xiaofu, what did you come over to the office for? Hah, we have known each other for so many years, and you have never come over to look for me in my office. Why…are you here to look for Ou Luoxi? You did not see him for a few days, and you missed him already. You were unable to bear with the loneliness anymore, so you want to seduce him?”
“Ou Ze, don’t speak so nastily!”
“I am speaking nastily? You came to my office to look for him so brazenly. Could you not want to cheat on me right before my own eyes? Xia Xiaofu, do you dare to say that you do not want to patch things up with him?”
Xia Xiaofu looked at Ou Ze’s constricted face, and her emotions erupted as she said, “Ou Ze, it is all because of you! If you did not set up a trap for us, Luoxi and I would not be in such a state today. I want to patch it up with him. I just want…”
Slap! Ou Ze gave Xia Xiaofu a tight slap.
Xia Xiaofu was thrown to the floor. Slight blood stains were on the corners of her lips, and at this moment, her long hair was tightly grabbed by Ou Ze before Ou Ze laughed coldly and said, “Xia Xiaofu, you should have met Miss Gong Ling already, right? Not only does this Miss Gong Ling look beautiful, the most important thing is that her father is powerful. What do you have now? I will not agree to a divorce. You will be my Mrs. Ou forever. If you are alive, then you belong to me, and you will be my ghost when you are dead!”
Ou Ze’s words were like a curse as they rang out in Xia Xiaofu’s ears. It made her hands and feet turn icy. That was right. If Ou Ze did not agree to a divorce, she would forever be Mrs. Ou.
She used both her hands and feet to break away from Ou Ze’s restraint before opening the door of the office to run outside.
She just ran out and crashed into someone. She raised her head up; it was Gong Ling.
Gong Ling looked at Xia Xiaofu’s cheek that was red and swollen and was stumped immediately, then she had a look at Ou Ze who was inside the office as she said, “You…”
She had crashed into Gong Ling, of all people. Xia Xiaofu very much felt at a loss as she said, “I am fine.” She ran away.
Ou Ze’s laughter rang out from behind her, and said, “Miss Gong Ling, why did you come over here? Oh, that woman just now is my wife. We were in the middle of an argument as a couple. Don’t laugh at us.”
…
Xia Xiaofu returned back to the Ou home hurriedly. When she stood before the main doors, she found herself to be funny and pathetic. The world was so big, but she returned to this place once more.
This was the prison Ou Ze has made for her, and she was unable to break away.
She walked into the living room and went to her room. It was the afternoon, and the sunset streamed through the windows and shone on the bassinet.
Xia Xiaofu took soft steps as she walked over to the side of the bassinet, and she looked at Little Fifth’s small sleeping face. She had a warm smile on her face.
No matter what she experienced outside, in front of Little Fifth, she felt very happy and satisfied.
“Little Fifth, I saw your…Daddy today. Your Daddy is tall and handsome. He is the most exquisite and beautiful man on this earth. Mummy…loves him very much.
“Little Fifth, I am sorry, Daddy still hasn’t come over to visit you. Maybe…he doesn’t know about your existence at all, but Little Fifth, you don’t have to worry. Mummy will guarantee this. Daddy will love you very much.
“Little Fifth, no matter what happens in the future, Mummy will work hard to ensure that you leave this place and these bad people who want to harm you. You are innocent. You should meet…Daddy, and you should enjoy Daddy’s love even more.”
Xia Xiaofu did not know whether she still could be together with Ou Luoxi or if she should have already lost hope, but Little Fifth was still so young. She was Ou Luoxi’s blood, and she should be made known to him.
Ou Ze was already brought to anger today. It was very hard for her to think what Ou Ze would be like when he was forced by Ou Luoxi. When a person is pushed, he will do anything when that time comes. Ou Ze would definitely harm Little Fifth, and when that time comes, Ou Ze might use Little Fifth as a tool to threaten Ou Luoxi.
She wanted Ou Luoxi to bring Little Fifth away.
But…
She did not know whether Ou Luoxi knew that she’d given birth to a daughter already. Logically speaking, he was back, and he must have done enough research about the situation here. He should know that she has given birth to a daughter.
Since he knew about it, why did he not say anything?
Why didn’t he bring it up at all or ask about…his daughter’s condition?
Was it because she’d betrayed him, and even the Little Fifth that she’d given birth to was not enough to atone with?
Xia Xiaofu’s eyes were red. She placed Little Fifth’s small, soft hand into her own palm before bringing it to the side of her lips to kiss it. “I am sorry Little Fifth. It is all Mummy’s fault…”
At this moment, Xia Xiaofu froze, and she noticed that Little Fifth’s small hand was very very hot.
She stood up quickly, before touching Little Fifth’s forehead. Little Fifth was clearly running a fever.
Xia Xiaofu bent over immediately to take Little Fifth into her arms.
At this moment, her mother walked into the room and said, “Xiaofu, what’s wrong? Where are you bringing Little Fifth?”
“Mum, Little Fifth is running a high fever. We have to go over to the hospital.”
