Chapter 53：Feel lucky to have you (1/2)

The raging storm inside Zhiyuan still refused to calm down. The moment he learned that Siying's disappearance was fake, he got an inkling that Xinyi getting sick couldn't be a coincidence either.

But when Xiaosi actually hinted at his involvement, Zhiyuan snapped and punched him before he knew it. A strange sense of irritation triggered inside his chest as he thought of Xinyi in danger, and he felt even more guilty thinking that she had to unnecessarily suffer just because Xiaosi wanted to target him.

The frustration grew stronger in him that twisted inside of him. ”I cannot calm down, Xinyi. You were in danger because of him. If something serious had happened then…”

Suddenly, fear gripped his heart that merged with the fury boiling inside him, making him even more anxious. It felt different than the concern he had for her before the presentation.

Shuang said, ”Well, I guess Mr. Zhu hasn't still degraded himself to that point to kill Xinyi.”

Zhiyuan turned and was taken aback to see Shuang.

”You? You are here?”

”Yup. Apologies for the late reunion,” she smiled. She looked at Caihong and waved her hand. ”Yo, Caihong.”

Caihong nodded back at her.

Xiaosi felt bored.

Xinyi said, ”En. It was Shuang who told me about your situation and if not for her, then everybody would have continued to misunderstand you.”

Shuang scratched her chin. ”Well, I feel bad for banging her room's door when she was so sick and resting, but I had to do it for many reasons,” her eyes glinted in happiness.

Xinyi sighed as she remembered how Shuang didn't give her any choice but to accept her partnership.

”But hey. We all got what we wanted. Oops except for Mr. Zhu. Ooohhh I can see Zhiyuan's rage plastered on your face. Cool.”

Xiaosi calmly shrugged. ”This much is nothing.”

Zhiyuan clenched his fist. ”Shuang. I know Xinyi helped me but still, you shouldn't have brought her here in this condition. I don't care what people say about me.”

”But I do,” Xinyi instinctively said.

Zhiyuan's gaze felt a little different to her as he seemed to stare at her in a stupor. She flustered as she realized it. ”I-I mean how can I see others accusing you like that when they were all lies?”

Her heart sped faster as she thought if she accidentally exposed her feelings for him.

But even if Zhiyuan might have not realized it, Caihong did. She carefully observed her expressions and faintly smiled which was laced with a tinge of sadness.

So you love him after all…

At first, Han Guang's words resonated in her ears that Xinyi always liked Zhiyuan from the beginning.

Since college?

She wasn't sure if it was true.

But then again, they had been married for seven years. It wasn't impossible for Xinyi not to fall for Zhiyuan at that time, especially a man like Zhiyuan.

Caihong gave a wry smile.

There is no point in knowing whether Xinyi loves Zhiyuan or not. What can I do anyway? I guess my love for him has really faded away.

Suddenly, Xiaosi said in a sharp tone. ”Caihong.”

She jolted from her daze.

”It's time for Chyou to come back. Go and get her.”

Caihong furiously glared at him.

Why should I get that girl!?
