Chapter 1743: Chapter 1744: Lin Tong Coughs Blood
Saying that, Lin Tong got out of the car and quickly ran to the passenger seat, taking the little cloud out of the car.
Little Cloud pouted slightly, her eyes clear like jewels, staring at Lin Tong without moving, finally whispering comfortingly: "Mama, don’t worry, Baba will definitely come back!"
"Yes! Baba will definitely come back!"
Lin Tong nodded emphatically, her face full of conviction, but her chaotic heart didn’t believe it at all.
Will he come back?
He didn’t even give her a chance to explain, which is enough to show his decisiveness and resolution, so how could he come back?
He’s just as stubborn as a bull, once he’s set his mind to something, who can make him turn back?
Lin Tong closed her eyes, took a deep breath, then maintained a smile as she took Little Cloud back to her room.
Click—
Lin Tong gently closed the room door, then stood alone, dazed at the doorway, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
Looking at Ye Xuan’s room, the door was still ajar.
The tea turns cold when the people leave!
The villa that should have been lively and extremely warm, just within a few hours now gives a feeling of extreme sorrow and desolation!
Reflecting back not long ago, she and Ye Xuan were still "honest with each other" on the bed.
Today, she finally gathered the courage, swearing to give him everything, if Ye Xuan hadn’t misunderstood her, perhaps, they might have already succeeded and consummated their relationship.
But heaven is ruthless, fate toys with people!!
No matter how determined Lin Tong is now, even if Ye Xuan is right in front of her, she fearlessly rushes forward, she’s afraid she’d be heartlessly pushed away by Ye Xuan.
Paradise and Hell switch places so quickly.
She had almost thought, once taking this step, what a wonderful and happy life she and Ye Xuan would lead going forward.
But in the blink of an eye, all the longings seem to have become illusions!
The future...
Is there still a future?
He’s gone, what’s left for her to look forward to?
Lin Tong closed her eyes, a bitter smile appeared on her face.
Her heart and mind exhausted, she seemed to have forgotten the pain, felt like her body couldn’t stand, she could only lean against the wall, slowly sitting down on the cold hallway floor.
Then hugging her knees, she cried till she couldn’t form words.
Tears kept falling onto the floor, creating gentle yet piercing sounds.
As if the tears weren’t tears, but crystallized pain.
Thinking that Ye Xuan might never come back, Lin Tong felt agony that’s indescribable, as if her heart was brutally pierced, one stab after another.
Finally.
"Ugh!"
Lin Tong’s delicate body trembled, and a mouthful of blood burst from her mouth.
Then she fell to the ground, no more movement.
...
If everyone has their own safe haven, then Ye Xuan’s safe haven, without doubt, is Su Yumo.
Whenever feeling troubled, the first person Ye Xuan thought of was Su Yumo.
Whenever feeling hopeless and helpless, the first person Ye Xuan thought of was also Su Yumo.
As long as his mood wasn’t great, Ye Xuan almost always thought of Su Yumo.
Because this woman, from beginning to end never brought him any trouble, when with her, Ye Xuan seemed to only feel relaxed and happy, with not a bit of negative emotion.
Tonight.
Ye Xuan wandered aimlessly, like a walking corpse, on the street for several hours, eventually finding himself unknowingly beneath Su Yumo’s apartment.
Looking up, he saw the room had long since turned off its lights, curtains tightly shut allowing no gap, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile.
"The person most owed is her, most silent and humble is also her, suffers grievances without speaking, thinks of me daily, yet seldom actively seeks me."
Ye Xuan murmured to himself, and couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh: "Actually, the wife’s role seems always to have been portrayed by her."
Ye Xuan couldn’t help but let out a self-mocking smile.
Ultimately, he’s still just a mere human.
He’s like countless other men in this world, making the same mistakes.
Silently guarding him, cherishing him as one’s own life, always unintentionally forgets, yet the one who never puts him in their heart, never plans to spend a lifetime with him, he constantly thinks about.
The only thing gained at the end is merely covered with wounds.
Serves him right!!
"Let everything start anew."
After smoking an entire pack of poor-quality cigarettes, Ye Xuan let out a heavy breath, then went upstairs, took out the key to Su Yumo’s apartment, and quietly entered.
Inside the apartment, everything was fine, silent, and pitch-black.
The familiar fragrance wafted in, the mere smell seemed to calm his mood.
This must be Su Yumo.
She doesn’t have an outstanding background, nor remarkable intelligence, if excluding her innate extraordinary beauty, she might be one of the most ordinary women of this era.
But she possesses this kind of magic power.
No need to speak, no need to show, even while asleep, a weak breath can immediately calm Ye Xuan.
Because of her, even Ye Xuan’s post-war syndrome has improved effectively!
"Yumo is the destination of my life..."
Ye Xuan smiled bitterly in his heart, not knowing whether this realization is a good or bad thing.
You say it’s too late, but it’s not too late.
You say it’s not late, yet many moments have been missed.
Ye Xuan didn’t want to dwell on these things, so he shook his head, closed the door softly, and silently came to Su Yumo’s side, lying down in her bed.
Warmth...
The taste of home.
But Ye Xuan still disturbed Su Yumo.
Even though he was very careful, practically silent throughout, women seem to have a natural skill, and Su Yumo eventually woke up.
Su Yumo slowly opened her beautiful eyes, gazing at the man’s face in the darkness, somewhat startled, as if doubting she’s dreaming: "Ye Xuan, is that you?"
"Yes, it’s me." Ye Xuan smiled softly: "I was very careful, didn’t expect to still wake you."
"No problem!" Su Yumo responded with delight: "For me, this is actually a surprise, if possible, I hope you’d wake me up every day!"
"I won’t." Ye Xuan smiled and shook his head: "From now on, I’ll just hold you every night until the morning."
Upon hearing this, Su Yumo was stunned, the sweet and happy smile on her face also immediately froze.
Though she isn’t greatly intelligent, her mind is incredibly meticulous and sharp.
Su Yumo’s eyes flickered as she looked at Ye Xuan, pondering: "Ye Xuan, did you... did you encounter something?"
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, decided not to say: "No, I’m good."
"Don’t lie to me, you must have fallen out with the CEO again!" Su Yumo pouted: "Why do you always act so immature? The CEO treats you so well, you can’t just start fighting with her over little things, you should go home, otherwise she will surely wait for you till dawn!"
Ye Xuan was stunned, and his heart inadvertently ached.
Aching because of Su Yumo!
This woman, is always putting his needs first!
Clearly, she desires his company more than anyone, yet she’ll still prioritize him going back to what is termed home, because she hopes Ye Xuan can have a happy life with Lin Tong. Her only pursuit now seems to be making Ye Xuan’s life better.
Only she doesn’t know, Ye Xuan and Lin Tong are no longer as they once were...
