Chapter 1242 - He is a Devil (1/2)

Seeing her trembling like she had been frightened, Bai Lin felt his heart ache and an angry beast was barely restrained within him.

In his impression, this little girl had always been strong and her mentality was different from those of ordinary people.

When had he ever seen her so disheveled, weak and distressed? Her forehead was in a b.l.o.o.d.y mess, her face red and hot, and her lips were dry and pale.

What did she go through tonight?

Although Bai Lin did not go close to her, he could already feel how hot her breath was! Bai Lin eyes showed his heartache, and he pressed his hand gently on her slender shoulders. “Xiaoxi, it’s me.”

She did not wake up, but heard his voice. “Brother Bai Lin…” Her tensed body relaxed slightly.

Bai Lin hummed with red eyes. His eyes would not turn red even if a bullet went through his body, but now looking at this fragile little girl, he felt a lump in his throat.

What did she do wrong to make her bear all this?

Bai Lin helped her up and fed the water he had poured bit by bit into her lips. Qiao Yanze saw the scene in the room and a trace of coldness flashed past his eyes.

After Bai Lin gave Cen Xi a few sips of water, he lifted her up from the bed.

Qiao Yanze came over and narrowed his cold eyes. “Did I say you could take her away?”

Bai Lin’s cold face was tense. “Who are you to her? What right do you have to not let me take her away? I know you hate Xiao Ying, but what does it have to do with Xiaoxi? They did not grow up together and Xiao Ying only found Xiaoxi, saved her and supported her when Xiaoxi’s adoptive parents pa.s.sed away.

“Back then, she almost starved to death on the streets. She’s grateful for her sister and is willing to atone for her sin. She knelt down to kowtow to you without self-esteem and made herself in such a terrible state, both physically and mentally. Isn’t it enough?

“What wrong did she do from beginning to end? Why did you have to involve her in the resentment between you and Xiao Ying?”

A cold smile appeared on Qiao Yanze’s lips. “I told her before that as long as she didn’t provoke me, I wouldn’t turn my hatred for Xiao Ying to her. But she keep appearing in front of me, making me think about how stupid I was in the past. Tell me, how can I let her off so easily?”

Cen Xi, who was being held in Bai Lin’s arms, had opened her eyes and was looking at the man who was a few steps away with bloodshot eyes.

He was wet all over, his clothes clinging to him, making him look very tall. His short black hair was not dripping with water, but was still wet with an indescribable cold air to him. The collar of his s.h.i.+rt was opened slightly, showing his firm and strong chest and revealing the muscular and strength that were usually concealed by his clothes.

He was very handsome and full of masculinity.

But from the moment she had guessed that he was Qiao Sen, her good impression of Qiao Sen would end there.

Her sister had hurt him and his family so she knew very well that he hated her.

He would not fall for his enemy’s sister and she had no face to like a man who had experienced such a misfortune in his family after being hurt by her sister.

She had heard everything he said just now.

Lowering her thick eyelashes, she said in a weak but firm voice, “Young Master Qiao, don’t worry. I won’t appear in front of you again. I won’t upset you again and make you remember all those sad memories.” Raising her eyes, she did not look at Qiao Yanze, but at Bai Lin. “Brother Bai Lin, take me away.”

Bai Lin’s voice was bitter and hoa.r.s.e. “Okay.”

He picked Cen Xi up and left in big strides.

Looking at their backs, Qiao Yanze’s expression turned extremely cold and dark.
