Chapter 59 - I Won't Let You Leave

Ming Liuyi had said so much, but she could not say the word “goodbye.” She could only stand up and get ready to leave. But just as she was about to leave, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm and Yao Zizhou said domineeringly,”Ming Liuyi, I won’t let you leave. Don’t you dare run from me.”

Although these words were very fierce, they broke Ming Liuyi’s last line of defense. Ming Liuyi turned around and hugged Yao Zizhou. Yao Zizhou struggled a little, but Ming Liuyi hugged him even tighter. When Yao Zizhou heard Ming Liuyi’s soft cry, his body suddenly stopped moving. However, Yao Zizhou could not fully accept the Ming Liuyi at that moment, so he could only pretend to be cold.

“Don’t cry. If you keep crying, I’ll throw you out.”

Hearing this, Ming Liuyi was stunned for a moment, but then she remembered that Yao Zizhou had just woken up, so he should not have that much strength. This might be the last time she could be so presumptuous, so Ming Liuyi continued to cry. However, she had experienced too much today, and she cried herself to sleep in the end.

Yao Zizhou was helpless. He could only use all his strength to shimmy to the side, leaving a space on the bed. Then he counted to three in his heart. Just like before, even in her sleep, his wife would automatically crawl into his arms. A smile appeared on his face.

But when he thought of his wife, Yao Zizhou’s smile disappeared. This woman who wanted him to die had suddenly become so quiet and gentle. Her angry voice had also become soft and gentle. Even if there was no one around, she still took care of him sincerely.

Yao Zizhou could not accept it, and he could not believe that someone who hated him so much would suddenly become so good. There must be something wrong. Before things were made clear, Ming Liuyi could only be Ming Liuyi.

…

The sky was dusky, and Ming Liuyi slept uncomfortably. She tried to stretch, but when she raised her hand, she almost tumbled down the bed. Ming Liuyi was puzzled, why did the bed suddenly become so small? She opened her eyes, and let out a shriek in her mind.

‘God, oh god, what’s going on?!’

Why was she lying in Yao Zizhou’s bed, with her head on his arm, and sharing a blanket with him? Ming Liuyi was fully awake for a moment, and then the memories of last night flooded into her mind.

Faced with such a situation, Ming Liuyi bitterly smiled and could only admit at once that her plans had failed completely. Whether it was to test the spiritual spring, or to leave the Yao family, Ming Liuyi raised her hands to her face as she panicked.

She did not know if she should continue with this fidgeting, and she did not dare to look up at Yao Zizhou. After all, she had come to say goodbye last night, but she ended up falling asleep next to Yao Zizhou.

A deep and magnetic voice said,”Since you’re awake, hurry up and get down.”

Yao Zizhou’s voice rang in her ears, and his breath hit Ming Liuyi’s neck without warning, causing her to shiver unconsciously. Yao Zizhou had actually woken up at this time, and she immediately got off the bed.

Yao Zizhou saw Ming Liuyi get off the bed and thought of what she said last night. He knew that she was probably trying to run away. Although he did not know what was going on, he could not let her run away like that.

“If you try to run, I’ll have your legs broken. Feed me breakfast later.”

Ming Liuyi immediately stood rooted to the spot. She thought to herself in dissatisfaction, ‘He had just woken up, and already wants to break my legs!’ But whether it was a real punishment waiting for her, Ming Liuyi did not dare to even ask about it. Instead, she opened her mouth and stuttered, “A-alright.”

Yao Zizhou seemed satisfied with Ming Liuyi’s obedience, and a smile appeared on his face. Ming Liuyi quickly ran to the bathroom in the ward. The first thing she saw was the handprint on her face. The red and swollen patch had disappeared, but there was still a trace.

Ming Liuyi knew that she could not run anymore, so she sighed and composed herself. She washed up and walked out of the bathroom. Just then, she saw a nurse bring in some food. The nurse was startled. She did not see Ming Liuyi come inside yesterday.

The nurse saw the marks on Ming Liuyi’s face, and suddenly felt a sense of justice. She thought of some articles she had read, then she looked at Yao Zizhou on the bed, and then at Ming Liuyi.

She deliberately lowered her voice and said to Ming Liuyi,”Madam, your face… Are you being bullied? If you need any help, just tell me. I’ll take you to a safe place and help you call the police. Don’t be afraid.”
