Ou Chuxiong looked at Ling Qianqian's calm eyes. After all these years, what hadn't he seen in this battle formation before? There was not a shred of guilt in Ling Qianqian's clear eyes. Otherwise, she would not dare to look straight at him. In Ou Chuxiong's heart, although Ling Qianqian was only a girl from an ordinary family, she could still be considered as someone who understood the general situation. He believed that she wouldn't do such a thing.
Ou Chuxiong nodded, "Alright, Daddy believes in you."
Facing Ou Chuxiong's new name, Ling Qianqian was actually a little surprised, and a burst of gratitude rose in his heart. At this time, everyone believed that she was the one who pushed Angel into the water. In the eyes of others, she had such a motive, even Ou Yufan would believe it, right? But this father-in-law's new name undoubtedly made Ling Qianqian's heart warm up, and she said softly: "Thank you, Father."
"Why are you being so courteous?" Ou Chuxiong's extremely simple sentence, however, filled his heart with gratitude. Ou Chuxiong turned and looked at Ling Qianqian. On the surface, it looked like he was talking to her, but in reality, he was talking to someone else.
An unpopular celebrity is just a third-rate means. Father naturally believes that our Ou Family's daughter-in-law wouldn't do such a thing." Ou Chuxiong's words made the surrounding discussion instantly disappear. He was the old president of the Ou Clan. Although the company had already been handed over to Ou Yufan, his status was still there. His words had a certain level of authority, no one would be willing to go against the Euro Group for a mere star.
"Yeah, it was just a misunderstanding. Of course, we wouldn't take it seriously."
"Hur Hur Hur Hur, actors are all good at acting, how can Boss Ou's wife possibly lower himself to such a little star?"
In a split second, everyone around Ling Qianqian had their eyes opened wide, the speed at which they turned their faces was even faster than flipping a book.
In the guest room, Ou Yufan changed into a new set of clothes after taking a hot shower. The guest room attendant told him that Angel had been placed in a room, while Ou Yufan stood at the door and knocked lightly.
The one who opened the door was a waiter, "Boss Ou, Miss Anqier has already showered and changed his clothes, he is currently resting inside. Would you like to go in and take a look? "
Angel's weak voice came out from inside the room, "Is that Yu Fan?"
"I'll go in and see her." Ou Yufan said as he went around the waiter and went straight to the bedroom inside.
The waiter tactfully left and even closed the door for them.
When Ou Yufan entered the inner room, he found Angel lying on the bed with a pale face and a snow-white blanket covering her body. Seeing Ou Yufan coming in, Angel lifted one of her arms, "Yu Fan, I'm sorry. I've caused you trouble again."
Seeing her like this, Ou Yufan felt a bit of pity. He came to the bed and sat down. "Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah, much better. Thank you Yu Fan, if not for you just now … "Cough, cough." Angel began to cough violently.
"Slow down and have some water." Ou Yufan thoughtfully poured a cup of water and passed it to her.
Angel just lied there and covered her mouth with her blanket, letting out a dry cough. Ou Yufan had no choice but to help her up. He let her lean into his embrace and put the cup to her lips, "Drink slowly."
"Thank you." Angel drank two mouthfuls weakly, then shook his head: "Alright, thank you Yu Fan."
"You've said this two times already. How did you fall into the water? "I remember you can swim. How did you get choked by the water?" Ou Yufan tightly stared at Angel, not letting go of even the slightest of emotion on her face.
Angel raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead and bitterly smiled, "I used to be able to swim, but then something happened …" After that, I got scared when I saw the water. "
Ou Yufan frowned slightly as he saw an obvious scar on Angel's wrist. When did this appear? Why hadn't he noticed it before? He grabbed Angel's hand and asked, "What happened to this scar?"
Angel shrank back into Ou Yufan's embrace, her eyes dodging and not daring to look at him. He lowered his eyelids, "It's fine, I just accidentally scraped it. Don't ask anymore."
Ou Yufan didn't believe her words at all, he grabbed her wrist tightly and turned. There was a nearly half-centimeter-wide wound in the artery of his wrist, which could not have been a scratch at all. Instinct told him that it should be a cut.
"Angel, tell me the truth, how did this happen?" Ou Yufan's tone became stern, as if he would not rest until he heard the truth.
Angel sighed with a sorrowful expression on her face, "Ai, it's already been over seven years. What's the point of mentioning it now?"
More than seven years ago? Wasn't that the period when they had just separated from university? Ou Yufan quickly recalled the events that had transpired in that period of time. In his impression, Angel had firmly decided to break up with him without any hesitation.
"What happened seven years ago?" Ou Yufan stared closely at Angel, his heart filled with a feeling that something had happened.
Angel suddenly looked pained. She covered her face with her hands and began to cry. "Wuwuwu …" Yufan, I beg of you to stop asking. That was a nightmare for me. At that time, I wanted to wait until we found a job, then we would get married and form our little family. Who knew that it would be … wuu …
Ou Yufan saw that Angel started to cry again halfway through her words. Although she was anxious, she did not have the heart to urge her. Seeing her crying so sorrowfully, something terrible must have happened at that time. Ou Yufan quietly accompanied her, waiting for her emotions to calm down.
I was going to see you that day when a man stopped me on the way and told me I had a star look and wanted me to work as a model at the acting company," she said. We were both about to graduate and hadn't gotten a job yet, so I thought it would be nice to have a job, and I heard the model's salary was pretty high. Who knew that after arriving there, the photographer would ask me to change my clothes. However, when I was changing my clothes, he would suddenly rush in to give me a change of clothes … "Wu, wu, wu.
Ou Yufan quietly listened to Angel's narration as he clenched both his hands into fists by his side. It turned out that Angel had left him because of this. It was all his fault for being so upset and angry at the time, for not trying to find out the reason.
"I know you are a person with an emotional obsession for cleanliness. I am already dirty, so I can't be worthy of you anymore. I thought of death, and for the first time I chose to jump into the river. Water poured into my chest in large quantities. It was a very painful feeling. That was when I started to fear water. Afterwards, when my consciousness completely disappeared and I thought that I had died just like that, I was saved. Then I cut my wrist again, but I still didn't die. Yu Fan, do you know that I was really in pain at that time, and I couldn't think of a solution other than death … " Angel said in a tearful voice, her face full of tears.
Seeing her like this, Ou Yufan's heart was filled with guilt. It was all his fault for not caring for her at the time, otherwise she wouldn't have been under so much pressure. It was fortunate that she didn't die, otherwise he would never have been able to make up for his sins.
"Angel, stop talking, it's my fault." Ou Yufan's voice also became a little hoarse. Remembering how beautiful she was at that time, and how no other girl could withstand such a blow when he encountered such a thing, right?
"Yu Fan, at that time, I was really in pain. I really love you, and the thought of losing you makes my heart ache to the point of dying. But I know I'm no longer worthy to be you, and even if I force myself to stay together, it will still bring you a lot of pain. I'm afraid to tell you the truth, or you won't agree to break up with me. Therefore, I can only choose to let you hate me. At least that way, you won't suffer too much, moreover … You remember me, too. " Angel raised his head and looked at Ou Yufan with grief and grief.
"Angel, you're so stupid. You should have told me about what happened. We should have taken responsibility. It's those people who are dirty, you're just being forced, you've always been a pure and good girl in my heart. " Ou Yufan held Angel tightly in his embrace, feeling her trembling body, as if he could feel the harm she had suffered at that time.
"No, I won't tell you. With how impulsive you were back then, once I told you, something would definitely have happened. You are the person I love the most, so even if I die, nothing will happen to you. Two times I didn't kill myself. I think it's because God forbid me to die, right? After a period of psychotherapy, my hopes of living were rekindled. I joined an acting company, and after so many years of hard work, I have gained a bit of fame. I went back to school to look for you, but I didn't manage to find out anything about you. " Angel curled into Ou Yufan's embrace, her tears wetting his clothes.
"I had imagined countless times that we would meet again after many years, but I didn't expect we would meet in that way. After I knew you were married, I couldn't tell you what it was like. I know I shouldn't disturb your quiet life any longer, but I can't help thinking about you. I've been dreaming about you every night for years. Sorry Yu Fan, I won't disturb your life ever again. And just now, I accidentally fell into the swimming pool, so don't blame your wife, okay? " Angel raised her head and struggled out of Ou Yufan's embrace, about to leave.
"Angel, I forbid you to leave." Ou Yufan grabbed Angel's wrist, pulling her into his embrace again. Feeling her trembling crying, a certain place in Ou Yufan's heart instantly collapsed …
"No, Yu Fan, I have to go. Your wife really loves you, or she wouldn't have said something like that. She is the daughter-in-law that both your parents have set their eyes on. I believe that without me, you will have a blissful life. And I... "In the future, I will also live well and not disturb you. I will quietly disappear from your life." Angel's eyes shone with tears as she looked at Ou Yufan with sorrow …
