Chapter 132 - No trust (2/2)

" How is she?" The old man asked one of his subordinate.

The subordinate lowered her head and said," She is fine sir."

The old man nodded is head and said," What about Simon?"

" He is still following his previous plan." The subordinate said.

The old man sighed," He is courting death. Anyway forget about him for now. Help me send an email to Li Singtan again asking him to be cautious about people around him."

The subordinate nodded his head though he was confused. His boss was constantly helping Li Singtan since the past few weeks and he failed to understand why.

Hospital

Li Singtan was sitting in the couch with his laptop while Xie Ming was lying on the bed.

Pouting her lips, Xie Ming said," Your wife is staring at you since like half an hour, and look at you. You did not even notice."

Li Singtan sighed and said," What do you want?"

" Your attention." Xie Ming shouted.

Closing his laptop, he got up from the couch and started walking towards the bed.

Climbing on the bed, Li Singtan carefully pulled her into his embrace and asked,"Is this much attention enough?"

Snuggling her head in his chest, Xie Ming nodded.

Running her hands on his chest, Xie Ming asked," So Singtan when are you planning to tell me everything?"

" What everything?" Li Singta asked.

" Who was the attacker and why were you attacked?" Xie Ming said. Pausing for a while, Xie Ming continued," I know you are hiding many things from me. Don't you think that I have the right to know everything that is related to you?"

Li Singtan did not say anything and closed his eyes.

Lifting up her head, when Xie Ming saw Li Singtan sleeping or rather pretending to sleep, she sighed in disappointment. Struggling out of his embrace, Xie Ming turned to the other side of the bed and said,"It's fine if you don't want to. I-I understand."

Slowly opening his eyes, Li Singtan took a deep breath. He wanted to talk to her but something was stopping him. Fear of her rejection after hearing the truth was stopping him from telling everything.

Covering her with the quilt, Li Singtan whispered in her ears," I love you."

Xie Ming let out a small laugh and said,"You say that you love me but you don't trust me. How funny is that?"

" It's not that I don't trust you Ming. It's just that-" Li Singtan said.

" Just that what?" Xie Ming asked.

" Nothing just sleep. Don't stress over these things." Li Singtan said before getting down from the bed.

" So now you are just walking out. Great." Xie Ming said.

Li Singtan sighed and said," I am not walking out. I am just trying not to argue with you."

" Oh so now you think I am sticking my nose in your business." Xie Ming said.

Without saying another word, Li Singtan walked out of the room.

Throwing a pillow towards the door, Xie Ming shouted," Since you are leaving me alone like this today, don't come back."
