Ming Liuyi was extremely aggrieved at this time. She was like a child who was bullied by outsiders and would come home full of tears. She cried loudly and completely forgot the situation she was in.
When Yao Zizhou woke up, he would torture Ming Liuyi like mad. Ming Liuyi had been working hard on her English to try and build her own career, all so she could stay away from Yao Zizhou. But now, she could not control herself. She just wanted to rely on Yao Zizhou and trust him, as though thinking that as long as Yao Zizhou was there, she would not be afraid of anything.
At this moment, Yao Ziyang was in a state of euphoria. Finally, this day had come. From now on, the Yao family and the company would belong to him alone. Hearing Ming Liuyi’s crying, Yao Ziyang could not help but roar, “Shut up! Yao Zizhou is already—”
Before he could finish, a hoarse and rough voice interrupted Yao Ziyang’s words. This voice made Yao Ziyang freeze on the spot, not daring to move at all. Perhaps it was because he had not spoken for too long, his voice sounded quite heavy.
“Shut your mouth.”
Yao Ziyang was rooted to the spot, thinking that he must have been too excited and was hallucinating. He quickly walked to the bed and saw that Yao Zizhou did not open his eyes. His nervous mood immediately relaxed, but before he could say anything, Yao Zizhou’s mouth moved again, and he said coldly, “Yao Ziyang, who do you think you are? You think you’re worthy of even saying my name?”
Yao Ziyang’s body started to tremble uncontrollably, as if his soul was being held in someone’s grasp, he did not dare to speak at all, and just stood there trembling. Yao Zizhou lost his patience, and said, “How should you address me?”
Yao Ziyang stared at Yao Zizhou in disbelief. Just now, Miao Ruiming said that he was about to die, and he had also tested his breathing. How? How did he suddenly survive, and even wake up?
Yao Ziyang said in a trembling voice, “B-big brother.”
Yao Zizhou was not very satisfied. His wife was right beside him, was Yao Ziyang also blind? He did not even greet the madam, or was Yao Ziyang trying to do something?
Yao Zizhou said coldly, “And?”
When Yao Ziyang heard this, he looked at Ming Liuyi suspiciously. Could it be that Yao Zizhou did not want him to just call her Ming Liuyi? In this room, there were only three people. Other than himself, there were Yao Zizhou and Ming Liuyi. Yao Ziyang called out tentatively, “Sister-in-law?”
Yao Zizhou was finally satisfied. He could not ignore his wife. As an underling, Yao Ziyang should have the awareness of an underling. As for the other things, they would talk about them later.
“Get lost,” he said.
Although Yao Zizhou was only lying on the bed, surrounded by the foul liquid, the oppressive aura from him had already made Yao Ziyang’s liver and guts want to shrivel up. Hearing the order to get lost, Yao Ziyang immediately scrambled out of the room.
Only Yao Zizhou and Ming Liuyi were left in the room. The moment Ming Liuyi heard Yao Zizhou’s words, she was so shocked that she remained unmoving on the ground. The room was silent, and the two of them did not say a word. Finally, it was Yao Zizhou who coughed a few times to break the silence.
Ming Liuyi finally came back to her senses. She immediately got up, poured a cup of warm water, and naturally fed Yao Zizhou some water like how she did it every day. However, Yao Zizhou was already awake, and no longer in a vegetative state.
Ming Liuyi’s approach and the action of feeding him water made Yao Zizhou’s ears turn red. Ming Liuyi saw this and touched his forehead worriedly as she muttered to herself, “You don’t have a fever, but why are your ears red?”
Ming Liuyi’s voice was soft and charming, the power of her voice made Yao Zizhou’s face flush red. But he was already forcing himself to speak, and he really did need water. So, he obediently opened his mouth and let Ming Liuyi feed him.
After drinking the water, Yao Zizhou felt that he was able to bear the embarrassment and was aware that he would soon fall into unconsciousness again, so he had to communicate with his wife before he fell unconscious. There was a question that Yao Zizhou had always wanted to ask, and he softly said, “Dear…”
The hand Ming Liuyi was holding the cup with trembled. She did not expect Yao Zizhou to call her like this. But before she could say anything, Yao Zizhou forced himself to calm down and asked a question that made her feel like she was dropped into an ice cellar.
Yao Zizhou felt better after drinking some water. His lips were moist and looked very soft, which could make one’s imaginations run wild. Yao Zizhou opened his mouth and sensed her presence beside him, so he coldly asked Ming Liuyi, “Who are you?”
