Chapter 452 - Taken (IV) (1/2)
Xiong Zhi and Xiong Wuyue were both located at the front row, but they were sitting on both corner-most positions and were separated by an entire row of seats.
Everyone was astounded at Xiong Wuyue's sudden charge towards the woman sitting on the other end of the row.
The producer was also shocked that this actress Xiong Wuyue would actually dare to run towards the big lady with a face that was obviously looking for a fight.
The staff immediately called in the security.
It would be hell if this troublesome actress really attacked their main investor.
However, the subject of it all, Xiong Zhi, just stared at Xiong Wuyue's figure without backing down and remained seated, unperturbed.
Before Xiong Wuyue's hand could reach Xiong Zhi, a tall figure appeared and held Xiong Wuyue's raised wrist.
The grip was not soft at all. Xiong Wuyue inadvertently gasped in pain.
”Don't step any further in front of my Young Miss,” Linfeng said coldly.
Xiong Wuyue's eyes grew wide, seeing Linfeng face to face.
Because of her surprise, she momentarily forgot the woman behind the man.
The pain she felt on her hand seemed to vanish as well.
It's Linfeng!
The haze in her eyes slowly cleared up.
”Linfeng... It's you, Linfeng…” She called his name with longing, as if her savior appeared.
But then, remembering the ghastly woman she saw in the mirror, how unkempt she looked right now, and the embarrassment she had faced earlier, Xiong Wuyue's face instantly burned in shame.
He… he saw it all…
Linfeng let go of her wrist indifferently, stepped back, but stayed in front of Xiong Zhi.
His eyes clearly still held a warning.
Finally, Xiong Zhi stood up, walked beside him, and took his hand. She used a white handkerchief as she wiped Linfeng's hand which touched Xiong Wuyue's wrist earlier.
”You can't touch dirty things casually next time.”
Her actions were smooth and practiced, as if holding and wiping Linfeng's hand was a casual occurrence.
Linfeng's eyes finally softened as he diverted his gaze to Xiong Zhi's actions and smiled helplessly. His usually cold eyes held warmth in them. ”You, really, is this even the time for that?”
”I won't let the virus stay on your hand for a second longer. Not allowed.”
The pair's little interaction all fell clearly in Xiong Wuyue's eyes.
She froze.
Looking at how the pair intimately acted without qualms, Xiong Wuyue, who was trying to hold down herself from fully losing control of her senses, felt the strings of her reason slowly snap one by one.
Why...
Linfeng noticed her once again.
The warmth in his eyes were gone and was replaced by coldness and subtle disgust.
Those eyes delivered a huge blow in Xiong Wuyu's heart, pride, and reason.
Why...
Why... can't he look me with the same eyes like how he looks at this bitch!
This bitch, this evil fox, took out everything from her!
She was supposed to be the young miss of the Xiong family, Linfeng should have been on her side.
She was supposed to be on the position where all these people would want to curry favor from her.
Her father always told her that everything would become theirs soon.
Everyone was supposed to envy her, the only treasured princess of the Xiong family who was doted on by her father, compared to this stone-faced orphaned girl who was not loved by anyone.
But everything!
Everything! Was! Taken! Away!
Her title. Her role. Her father. And even Linfeng.
