Chapter 99 - Hong Fei Tried To Commit Sucide

Afternoon, inside the master bedroom.

"Crunch, Crunch"​​

Xiao li listened to the sound of chewing through the phone, feeling extremely helpless, yet amused.

"Lili, you didn't even tell me that that b*tch hit you yesterday. I would have taught her a lesson. You even begged Young master Wang to reduce the months she would spend there, what on Earth is going on with you? Did you suddenly lose your mind?"

Zhi Ruo who was eating, asked in a confusion.

"No, I just thought that it's useless to waste my precious time on irrelevant people"

"Cough, Cough..." Zhi Ruo spat out the water in her mouth and coughed furiously upon hearing Xiao li's words. After a while, she calmed herself down before saying, "Aiya, Lili, I never knew you have such a bad mouth. I wonder how Jingyi Wang is coping with you"

Xiao li heard this and smiled, but her smile didn't reach her eyes, "I don't also know how I did it; Magic you can say"

Xiao like was the woman who caused Jingyi Wang's heart not to be at peace after he met her. Even in his dream, she would still show up. She was like a chewing gum, very difficult to remove after being stuck to one's shoe sole. Ever since he met her, he never wanted to be away from her.

Zhi Ruo finished her lunch and wiped her mouth. She turned to the television in her office, "Just now, the news boardcast was very interesting"

"What happened?"

"Hong fei tried to commit sucide. It was as if she had taken too many drugs and gotten too high. Her parents tried to stop her and because of that, Xei Meng fainted. The mother-daughter pair were immediately taken to the hospital after Hong fei was stopped. Also, the news that she was featured in wasn't some simple media entertainment gossip outlet, but the official government business news. Ha, it's such a pity"

Xiao li was shocked to death. She rushed to turn on her computer and watched the news.

The story about Hong fei wanting to commit sucide had ended. Now, they were showing the scene of the Hong family being surrounded by the media.

Considering Hong Zhan's health, he wouldn't be able to take it and might even pass out. Given that they are one of the top families in G.City, their influence was not small at all.

However, after such an incident, the Hong family company stocks would most likely fall. Such a butterfly effect, Xiao li herslf could never have seen it coming.

"Lili, her family issue is related to you, right?" Zhi Ruo suddenly asked.

Xiao li heard this and didn't say anything.

She felt sad for what was happening to their family.

Upon realising that Xiao like was thinking, Zhi Ruo spoke up, "I heard that the Hong family has people behind them and they won't dare to touch you. Even if they do that, not only do they have to consider the Xiao family's reputation, they also have to consider that the Wang family is not easy to deal with"

Xiao li sighed deeply, "I know"

"Your biggest support now is Jingyi Wang" Zhi Ruo suddenly remembered something and clicked her tongue as she said, "Tsk, tsk, Lili, when are you going to give young master Wang your positive answer? If you still don't want to give him a reply yet, one day, if he were to be stolen by someone else, you would definitely cry"

Xiao li thought about it for a moment before she smiled, "Don't worry, I will hold onto his thigh tightly as his thigh will only have me. There is no space for anyone who wishes to hold onto it"

Zhi Ruo suddenly laughed, "I never knew Mrs Wang can be this possessive, ah. You make me feel like I don't know how to handle men"

Xiao li stood in the balcony, her lips twisted as she brought our her phone to dial a number. Her innocent, round eyes stared into space as she spoke, "Help me with something"

After saying some words, she ended the call and a text message was sent to her phone. She tapped on the screen and looked at the words.

---

Xiao li had planned to let Yang Lingsi know where she was going, but she kept it as she knows that Yang Lingsi would report to Jingyi Wang.

With a driver with her, she drove hurriedly to the G. city central hospital, rushing to a single ward. The moment the door opened, a doctor wearing a white robe walked out. He wore a mask, revealing only his eyebrows and eyes. His gaze carelessly landed on Xiao li for a moment before sweeping away.

Xiao li didn't say a single word as she nodded at the doctor as a sign of greeting. Then, she entered the ward. In the ward, there was a man sitting on the chair, his back facing her. He held the hands of the unconscious woman lying on the bed in a hospital dress.

Xiao li felt her heart ached barely watching the scene.

Hong fei was the second missy of the Hong family and being the second missy, she was pampered and taken care of. She was taken to the best private college in G. City and was looked up to by both teachers and students.

In the school, hardly can you find someone who is from an average family studying there. Also, even to get an admission into the school, you need to have influence or better say, connection. Hong fei was given the best in her life and it would be downgrading and embarrassing if she went to Huo Lai.

Huo Lai was known as a barren land as it was the poorest city. For a princess who had never tasted what it's called "Poverty" was now asked to stay in Huo Lai for four months, isn't that making a rich person sit under the eaves and place oneself in danger?

Slowly, she walked towards him and placed her hand in his shoulder gently. "Uncle Zhan" she called softly, her voice trembling, yet calm and slow

Upon hearing the female's voice, Hong Zhan jolted awake as if he was in a dream. He turned around and his eyes widened once he set his eyes on Xiao li. "Miss Xiao, what are you doing here?"

Xiao li looked over at Hong fei who was on the bed for a moment before averting her eyes to look at Hong Zhan, "Uncle Zhan, there is something I really need to discuss with you"

---

The sun set and the sky darkened slowly. Xiao li was on a phone call when Jingyi Wang entered the room. He walked over and wrapped his arms around her waist.

At that moment, Xiao li was stunned. She hurriedly said some words and ended the call.

"Let me hug you for a moment" he quickly said when he realized that she was resisting.

Xiao li heard this and stopped moving.

"Lili" he called her name softly, as his lips landed on her neck. "I missed you" his hot breath spilled on her and the smell of his cologne hit her nostrils.

After a while, he turned her around, with his large, warm and tender hands, he cupped her face and tilted it up. "You are so beautiful"

Her face looked peaceful, lit by ethereal moonlight filtering through the ghostly branches of the fairly tree. Her face shone with a glowing smile like a summer sunrise.

He leaned down and kissed her cheeks softly, finally touching her lips briefly with his.

Xiao li pulled away from him and said, "Ah Jin, I want to tell you something"

"Shhh... I know what you want to say. You don't have to say it" before she could say another word, he pulled her closer, kissing her passionately.
