However, in the face of reality, hope was always easily slapped.
A dark light quickly flashed through Huo Yaoting's eyes. He wasn't the least bit surprised that Ye Xi would ask him this question.
He thought, for her to be so peculiar throughout the entire day, it must be because she found out about Lan Shan.
Only, now that Lan Shan had fallen to such a state, it would be a little disrespectful to say that he had not the slightest bit of relationship with.
Although it was not his men who destroyed Lan Shan in the end, it was still his fault.
It all started because of him.
And the result that Lan Shan experienced, was precisely precisely directed at him.
Therefore, in the face of Ye Xi's questioning, Huo Yaoting was unable to say a single word.
He just looked at her and did not answer her question. However, his silence gave Ye Xi an answer.
The body under Ye Xi's quilt couldn't help but shiver, her white face was deathly pale.
Huo Yaoting could clearly see the fiery light in her eyes dissipate bit by bit, and finally die down. His heartbeat also slowly stopped as the light in her eyes faded.
Huo Yaoting held onto Ye Xi's shoulders tightly with both hands. His black pupils were sunken in, so deep that they couldn't be seen.
However, Ye Xi closed his eyes the moment he said that.
She heard him whisper a lot into her ear, but Ye Xi couldn't hear a single word he was saying.
She did not understand how a person could be so cruel and merciless.
She had experienced the despair and fear of being drugged. She had also experienced the despair and despair of being drugged.
To a woman, the greatest pain was this.
She could not imagine what Lan Shan would do after this event. Could she still live?
Where's Grandfather? What should Grandpa do?
Lan Shan was his darling, his everything ?
The more he thought about it, the more Ye Xi felt sad at the bottom of his heart.
What kind of demonic man did she meet!?
That night, Ye Xi closed his eyes and sobered up until the sun rose. The moment the man, who had not slept at all, woke up and walked into the bathroom, Ye Xi opened his eyes and sat up.
She didn't sleep all night and cried again. Her face was pale, her eyes puffy, her lips slightly dry.
Without looking in the bathroom, she got out of bed and dragged her injured left leg to the closet. She opened the closet and grabbed a navy blue woolen coat, a black, thin, loose sweater, and nine-tenths of a pair of tight-fitting jeans.
He took off his pajamas and put on his warm clothes before putting on his sweater, jeans and coat.
Then, without even looking at the bathroom, he walked towards the door.
When Huo Yaoting came out of the bathroom, he did not see Ye Xi on the bed.
With a sullen expression, he walked out and directly rushed to Ji
ian's room and opened the door.
When the door opened, who was dressing Ji
ian beside the bed could be seen.
Hearing the door open, Ye Xi remained expressionless as he continued to dress Ji
ian as if he did not hear anything.
Ji
ian had just woken up, staring at the dead fish in his sleep. He then looked at Ye Xi, then at the man who appeared at his door in the early morning.
Although Ye Xi did not leave him, Huo Yaoting's tense face clearly relaxed a lot. After staring at the two of them for a while, Huo Yaoting finally turned and returned to the bedroom to change.
When he came out of his bedroom and looked towards Ji
ian's room, Ye Xi and her were no longer in there.
Huo Yaoting frowned, then walked into the living room with a green and black complexion, only to see Ye Xi holding onto Ji
ian with one hand, and Ji
ian's other hand holding onto Little Treasure's dog chain as she stood at the entrance to the profound entrance.
It was obvious that he was about to go out!
Huo Yaoting's face twitched slightly. He quickly walked over and grabbed Ye Xi's hand that was about to open the door. He suppressed his brows and stared at Ye Xi, "You want to go out?"
Ye Xi didn't look at him, and lightly struggled for a bit, then coldly said, "Mn."
"Where to? I'll go with you! " The impatient man said patiently.
"No need, it's not suitable for you to go!" Ye Xi's tone was faintly distant.
Huo Yaoting's hand that was holding her arm tightened, obviously she had stabbed him with her words, "Where should I go?"
Ye Xi smirked as he turned to look at him, his gaze cold and unfeeling like it had never been before, "Do you think it's appropriate for me to go visit my grandfather, Lan Shan, the main culprit behind all of this?"
The culprit?!
Huo Yaoting's heart became dull, and her two thin lips turned white from him.
Ye Xi calmly looked at him with his scarlet eyes, "Mr. Huo, can you let go now?"
Mr. Howe?
What a Mr. Huo!
Huo Yaoting suppressed the sinister aura between his brows. Clearly, he was already enduring it to the limit, "Ye Xi, you're infuriating me!"
"I don't dare." Ye Xi's tone was neither warm nor fire, but his expression was extremely cold.
Huo Yaoting only wanted to shatter the facade of indifference on her face, he took two deep breaths and warned with a low voice, "You must force me to be ruthless to you in front of Ji
ian, right?"
Ye Xi's little face instantly flushed red. In the end, she was unable to continue pretending to be calm and indifferent. Her pair of watery eyes angrily glared at him, "Shameless!"
"Try it if you don't believe me!" Huo Yaoting gritted his teeth.
Ye Xi was so angry that she was about to cry, but she did not cry either.
Even if she wanted to cry, she wouldn't cry in front of this man!
Clenching his fists tightly, Ye Xi breathed out a few deep breaths in his heart before barely suppressing the emotions at the bottom of his heart. He was still relatively calm as he looked at him, "I really just want to go and see Grandfather and Lan Shan. Don't worry, I won't go back. Of course, if you're really worried, you can have someone follow me. It's not like you've never done this before. "
Okay, she didn't want to anger him anymore, but after seeing Lan Shan's video yesterday, everything that he had done to her in the past appeared in her mind.
However, in her state of mind, when he still treated her in his hegemonic ma
er, she could not help but, could not help it ?
Ye Xi thought that she had probably become more vicious as well.
She did it even though she knew it would make him angry or even hurt him.
Doesn't it hurt? How is this possible!?
Huo Yaoting stared at Ye Xi in silence, anger was written all over his face and eyes, but he was not angry.
Looking at his handsome face that was still enduring, Ye Xi actually didn't feel too good about it. He suppressed the obscure feeling that shouldn't have bubbled up in his heart and opened his eyes.
However, in the next moment, his waist abruptly tightened as his legs kicked into the air. She had already been slapped into the air by him.
Ye Xi exclaimed softly, his eyes opened wide in fear as he stared at the cold face that was just inches away from him.
