Chapter 204 Its My Son (2/2)

In England, Ying Qingcang brought everyone back to Ying Ancestral Home. He had two reasons for doing that: one, he feared that flying back to China straight away would wear Xin Qing out; two, he wanted to slap Ying Hao in the face. The subordinate that Ying Hao had wholeheartedly nurtured turned out to be a wolf in a sheep's skin. Young Master Shen tossed Elder Li out of the gunny sack that he had used to carry the latter. Ying Hao nearly passed out when he saw Elder Li being tossed out of the sack.

”He... He's Williams?” From the old man's voice, it was as if he had aged several years. Heartbroken, Ying Hao looked at Ying Qingcang.

Ying Qingcang nodded happily. ”William's lover!”

Ying Hao stumbled a few steps backwards and fell limply onto the couch. ”How did things end up like this... how...” Ying Qingcang wanted to say more, but Xin Qing glared at him.

”That's enough. What if he gets ill?”

Ying Qingcang swallowed whatever he had wanted to say. He gave a hand gesture for someone to take Elder Li away.

”Wait,” Ying Hao said. ”Is he... dead?”

Everyone turned to Xunxun. ”He's as good as dead,” Xunxun said seriously. ”His entire body is now paralyzed and his brain is damaged. In other words, he's basically a retard in a vegetative state.”

In Xunxun's arm, Ah Sha clapped her hands. ”Bad guy! Bad guy!” she chanted. Ah Sha did not forget the way Elder Li had tried to strangle her neck with the whip.

A change went across Ying Hao's face when he looked at Ying Qingcang. ”Can you leave the man to me?”

”Why? You're planning to cure him?” Ying Qingcang's face darkened.

”That's impossible,” Xunxun piped up. ”Nobody can be saved from my mother's gadgets.”

”I'll send him to an old folk's home and then arrange for a few people to look after him. He can live out the rest of his life there,” said Ying Hao. ”Isn't that what you want as well? Don't tell me you want him to die just like that?”

Ying Qingcang thought about it for a moment before agreeing. ”Fine,” he said. ”You can try looking for a neurosurgeon to cure him, too, if you want. Best if you can get his consciousness back. That way he'll be aware of the way he'll live out his remaining years.”

Just then, Uncle Fu walked in. ”Young master,” he said. ”The rooms are ready.” Ever since Tang Shuang moved into Ying's residence, Uncle Fu had returned to England to take care of Ying Hao.

Everyone retired into their own rooms to rest. Ah Sha wanted to stay with Xin Qing and Ying Qingcang, but at the same time, she was unwilling to part with Xunxun. In the end, Ying Qingcang brought Xunxun away. Only then did Ah Sha agreed to follow Xin Qing to bed.

”Your father and I had already drawn up the marriage agreement,” Ying Qingcang said, dragging Xunxun by the collar into the garden. Xunxun did not try to free himself from Ying Qingcang's grasp. ”I'll handle you like this too when you're old,” Xunxun said when Ying Qingcang released him.

Ying Qingcang released a cold sneer. ”Without your mother's gadgets, you can't beat me in a fight even when I'm old!”

Xunxun lowered his head and ruminated his thoughts. Then, he raised his head. ”What is it that you want to talk to me about?”

”If you ever do something to hurt Ah Sha in the future, I won't give a face to your father,” Ying Qingcang said, crossing his arms over his chest as he stared Xunxun down. He never saw this brat as a child at all. Other than the fact that this brat had the physical appearance of a child, he possessed inner qualities that were comparable to Ying Qingcang's. One thing for sure was that this brat was even more vicious and devious that he was. Back at the cellar that night, Ah Sha had complied and acted immediately the moment the brat had mentioned the hair clip. It was obvious that the move had been premeditated. Ying Qingcang believed that Xunxun would be able to bring Ah Sha home safely even without their help.

The serious look on Xunxun's face intensified as he gave Ying Qingcang the stink eye. ”I'll do better than you,” Xunxun said. ”At least I won't allow my wife and kids to feel sad. Even if it was all an act!”

Not cute at all. ”Also,” Ying Qingcang gritted out, ”if Ah Sha falls in love with someone else in the future, the marriage agreement will be voided!”

”Haha!” Xunxun gave an evil laugh. ”I won't give her that chance. She can only be my woman for the rest of her life.”

Xin Qing had no idea what it was that Ying Qingcang had told Xunxun. All she knew was that when Xunxun returned, he was sporting a huge smile as he climbed onto the bed to kiss Ah Sha. Then, he lay down on the bed beside Ah Sha. Ying Qingcang, on the other hand, had a dark scowl on his face when he dragged Xin Qing out of the room.

Xin Qing found the whole thing highly amusing. ”What's the matter with you?” she asked. ”Did you lose the verbal sparring with Xunxun?”

Ying Qingcang gave her a sidelong glance. ”You think I'm like you, so easily bullied by a kid?”

”What's with the long face, then?” Xin Qing said, laughing. ”Too bad you don't have a son. You could do the same thing to piss off Boss Wan if you do.”

”You know what,” Ying Qingcang said, picking her up from the ground. ”That's a brilliant suggestion!” Then, he carried her out of the castle with hurried steps. Xin Qing wrapped her arms around his neck, not daring to shout. ”It's already so late. Where are we going?”

Ying Qingcang said nothing and brought her all the way towards the stable. He mounted a horse and then heaved her up, settling her on the horseback, right in front of him. Ying Qingcang released a loud yell, and the horse galloped into the woods. Ying Qingcang brought the horse to a stop when they reached a large tree with a wide girth. Xin Qing raised her head and saw a treehouse right in the center of the tree. Blushing, Xin Qing stared back at Ying Qingcang, her eyes heavy with lust. Ying Qingcang climbed up the tree with her in his arms. During the climb, he lowered his head and kissed her ardently.

”Babe, I won't be able to take it if you keep looking at me like that!” Ying Qingcang said as he began taking off Xin Qing's clothes. Xin Qing was already naked by the time they were both inside the treehouse.

The treehouse was very clean. The flooring consisted of thick, plush mats. There were also a bunch of down blankets lying around. Ying Qingcang set Xin Qing on the floor. Through the small window, moonlight shone onto Xin Qing's body, giving her jadelike skin a certain glimmer.

”Ah Cang!” Xin Qing stretched out her hand, her eyes a mixture of shyness and desire.

Ying Qingcang released a deep and low hum from the back of his throat as he stretched out his own hand.
