91 Dying Out of Shock? (1/2)

Song Xia blankly watched as the news reporter blabbered on about how the Long Corporation won the battle between the Long's and Song's and how Long Chen was a capable businessman and so on.

The words 'Long Corporation acquired the Song Company' was ringing in her ears like a curse.

*Plop*

Song Xia fell on her knees as she stared at the TV with a shocked expression.

As she knelt, her knees were pierced by the glass shards but she couldn't feel the pain as she was already hurting from inside.

'How can it be?! W-Why are they after my parents?! Aren't they satisfied with my death?! Why.. Just why did they do this?!'

Tang Yan rushed towards her and pulled her up as he scolded loudly, ”Are you dumb? You..”

Song Xia looked at him with tears flowing like a waterfall while mumbling, ”H-How can it be.. How can the Song.. No, the news must be false..”

Tang Yan felt his heart ache when he saw her desperately trying to deny the truth.

He looked at her bleeding knees and sat her down in the sofa.

He then walked towards a cupboard and took out a first aid kit from inside.

He knelt beside her and carefully disinfected the injury on her knees while saying softly.

”Whatever happens, you have to take care of yourself! How come Arrogant Miss Xia became so careless.. Didn't you say that you loved your body the most? Then why did you injure yourself like this? Blah blah..”

He was saying this and that to distract her mind but seeing as how she was still trembling, we felt it was all for naught!

'I shouldn't have become careless.. After my 'death', Guan Shan must've got all my shares and then he teamed up with Long Chen.. Why.. why did it happen?! This must've been the thing Xu Zhen was talking about..'

Song Xia sobbed and started crying more pitifully than before.

Tang Yan got up and frowned as he kept his mouth shut. He didn't know how to comfort someone at all.

He reached out a hand to Song Xia and was about to pull her into his embrace, when a deep voice resounded from the stairs.

”What is happening here?”

Ellen's eyes were terrifyingly cold and his face was slightly pale but that couldn't diminish the extremely overbearing aura he was giving off.

Song Xia stopped crying and looked at Ellen with puffy eyes before looking away and continuing to cry miserably. She didn't know why she couldn't control her tears at all.

Ellen frowned when he saw her crying. His expression turned more somber. He turned to Tang Yan, ”Did you bully her?”

Tang Yan, ”...?!”

What?! Why did the blame come to me?!

Fortunately, Song Xia shook her head and hoarsely murmured, ”It's my fault..”

Ellen ruffled his messy hair as he came downstairs and asked, ”What happened?”

Ellen looked over and he instantly understood why she was crying. He frowned slightly, deep in thought.
