Chapter 1615 - 1597
Wen Xiaoxiao caught a glimpse of a black figure striding towards them, and her smug, domineering expression instantly fell. A mist covered her eyes as she took small steps forward.
Wen Zaao had just turned around and bumped directly into Lin Zixuan. Then, she heard the soft and pretentious voice behind her ring out again, laden with grievance, "Zixuan, she..."
That appearance of wanting to speak but holding back seemed as if Wen Zaao had somehow bullied her.
"Zaozao?" Lin Zixuan subconsciously assumed Wen Zaao was following him, furrowing his brows tightly, "Zaozao, I thought I already explained it very clearly to you. Why do you keep pestering me? The person I want to marry is the eldest young lady of the Wen Family, definitely not the daughter of a housemaid trying to climb her way up."
Wen Zaao curved her lips slightly, casting a mocking glance at him. She had initially thought Lin Zixuan had a reasonably attractive appearance, but now looking at him, she feels he has an air of overindulgence.
"You’re overthinking it. I didn’t come here tracking you. Please let me through!"
Facing those clear eyes, Lin Zixuan’s heart inexplicably fluttered, his tone not as cold as before, "Zaozao, I know you love me very much. It’s hard to accept such a sudden breakup, you can rest assured, I won’t hold it against you for deceiving me for two years, and I’ll even give you a sum of money, consider it a breakup fee, as long as you promise to stop troubling me."
His words carried an unspoken arrogance, as if Young Master Lin not quibbling over past matters with her was a favor, and now giving her a breakup fee, she should feel grateful.
Wen Zaao straightened her chest and lifted her head, glaring at him fiercely, "Lin Zixuan, stop parading around like a peacock in love with its own reflection! I told you I didn’t come to the hospital to find you! Also, don’t try to disgust me by offering me your money!"
Wen Zaao was about to take a detour, but Lin Zixuan stuck close again, "Zaozao, why are you so disobedient! And so stubborn!"
"Who do you think you are to me? Why should I listen to you? Move aside! Good dogs don’t block the path!" Wen Zaao shouted sharply.
"Wen Zaao! Who are you calling a dog!"
Seeing the situation was not quite right, Wen Xiaoxiao hurried to stand between them, annoyance flaring inside her heart—how could Zixuan possibly give money to this lesser woman!
"Whoever blocks my way is a dog!"
Wen Zaao’s eyes were filled with ridicule.
Wen Xiaoxiao hooked her arm around Lin Zixuan’s, "Zixuan, don’t get angry, she’s just an uncultivated child born to an unschooled mother. Don’t stoop to her level."
Wen Zaao’s hand clenched at her side, intending to step forward to say something, when she suddenly saw a nurse rushing over nervously, gripping her hand tightly and urgently saying, "Lady Wen, finally found you, your boyfriend has woken up, and he’s injured one of our nurses again, and is still holding someone, we didn’t dare get close."
Injured someone again?
Damn, damn!
What the hell! Is he addicted?
Wen Zaao stopped paying attention to Lin Zixuan and Wen Xiaoxiao, that pair of doggy lovers, and quickly followed the nurse to the ward.
Watching her figure disappear into the distance, Lin Zixuan furrowed his brows, "What did the nurse just say? Boyfriend?"
Could it be that Wen Zaao found a boyfriend within a day of their breakup? Or had she been cheating on him before?
No, impossible!
Lin Zixuan watched the direction Wen Zaao had left, his eyes swirling with a dark undercurrent.
Wen Xiaoxiao didn’t notice the change in Lin Zixuan, scoffing lightly, "Zixuan, did you see that? Wen Zaao is as promiscuous as her mother, she can’t go a day without a man. She never wanted to give herself to you, not because she was saving it for your marriage, but because she has more important men around her than you."
"..." Lin Zixuan’s expression grew increasingly difficult due to Wen Xiaoxiao’s words ’more important man than you’, his hand at his side clenched tightly, his lips pressed into a straight line displaying his fury, "Come, let’s go and take a look."
He wanted to see, who could be worthy of Wen Zaao!
Wen Xiaoxiao saw Lin Zixuan’s eyes filled with anger, stamping her foot in frustration, not caring who Wen Zaao found—no connection with Lin Zixuan could be allowed!
Just as Lin Zixuan was about to leave, Wen Xiaoxiao grabbed his arm again, twisting her brows in pain, "Zixuan, my stomach is hurting again, can you accompany me to check it out?"
...
When Wen Zaao returned to the ward, she saw Chu Ge gripping a nurse’s wrist, glaring viciously at the poor girl, "Audacious ruffian! Dare to use a silver needle to assassinate this king!"
"Chu Ge, let go!"
Upon seeing Wen Zaao, Chu Ge’s terrifying aura slightly softened, but the force in his hand did not lessen, and a piercing scream from the nurse ensued.
"Ah!!!"
The wrist, dislocated.
"Sob sob, it hurts so much, it’s killing me." The nurse cried out in pain, slumping to the floor, too afraid to move.
Wen Zaao felt a stifling sensation in her chest, extremely uncomfortable. She first helped the nurse up, "I’m sorry, sorry, he’s a bit unstable mentally, don’t worry, I’ll definitely compensate you."
After sending the nurse away, Wen Zaao placed her hands on her hips and glared at the culprit, Chu Ge. Half-reclined on the bed, not mentioning his sleek long hair, his unmatched handsome features could stir countless hearts, especially his brows and eyes, exuding an indescribable charm and fierce allure.
She took a deep breath of stale air for a moment and with patience, asked the question most plaguing her mind, "Are you really from Ye Xia Country?"
"Well." Chu Ge slightly raised his chin, as if stating, you best not play tricks, for we Ye Xia Country are a mighty nation.
"Are you King Ye Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Ge’s deep eyes flickered with a proud sharpness, "Naturally, it’s me the king,"
Despite having formulated some answers, watching the man’s demeanor and unparalleled kingly aura, he seemed far from anything like a wretched thief, but rather so righteous and full of integrity, leaving a firmer impression on her.
Wen Zaao’s hand hanging at one side was loosening and tightening repeatedly, taking deep breaths, patiently explaining, "That nurse wasn’t holding a silver needle, you’ve just woken up. Everything here is unfamiliar to you. I’ll explain slowly."
Wen Zaao worried that if she said too much at once, he wouldn’t be able to understand, so she only gave a basic explanation of the five thousand years of continuous historical changes, including the fact that Ye Xia Country had already perished.
Chu Ge’s deep eyes filled with shock, his seductive thin lips pressed into a straight line, "You mean Ye Xia Country has already been destroyed? Which country annihilated it?"
He remembered that before he fell unconscious, they were fighting fiercely with Jin Country, could it be Jin Country?
Wen Zaao rolled her eyes, "How would I know? Ye Xia Country wasn’t even mentioned in our history textbooks."
She only learned of Ye Xia Country from a diary left by her father; as for more historical details, she was equally unclear.
