"Chu'er is pregnant, I finally had a son, I didn't expect to have such a vicious daughter like you, even my own brother would be killed!"

He ruthlessly kicked out with his foot, precisely landing on Jiang Shuxia's stomach. In an instant, she was reduced to a small shrimp in pain.

This kick from Jiang Yu was very heavy, and he was also in a trance, not being able to defend at all. The pain made her unable to speak, and she said while trembling, "Father, it wasn't me …"

The angry Jiang Yu could not listen to her explanation anymore, he once again dragged her from the ground out of the room.

In a corner of the second floor, Jiang Shuxia was thrown into a small, dusty room. Jiang Yu walked out and told the servant to take the lock, "Without my permission, no one is allowed to let her out!"

The kick on her stomach caused her to be unable to recover for a long time. Adding to the fact that she had been dragged along the entire way, there was not a single part of Jiang Shuxia's body that did not feel pain.

This small room was not unfamiliar to her. It was the place where her mother kept her personal belongings. However, it had been many years since someone had entered.

Jiang Shuxia was thrown onto the ground, as she blurrily fainted.

When she woke up in the middle of the night, she felt a chill down her spine and a burning sensation in her body. She felt extremely uncomfortable.

She had a fever.

Her surroundings were pitch black, and she was completely silent. Her body was in so much pain that she couldn't move, and even if she wanted to call for help, she couldn't make a sound.

Tears streamed down his face, and he felt pain all over his body. Even more so, he felt pain in his heart.

Why did Father never listen to her explanation ever since Lin Chu and her daughter entered the house? She had clearly grown up in her own home, but in this familiar environment, she had become an outsider.

Jiang Shuxia curled up as she mumbled in a daze, "Mom, where are you? Take me with you! "

Lingxuyao called Jiang Shuxia early in the morning, but she did not pick up the call. He called the main force in with a gloomy face, telling them to go and find out what happened.

Ten-odd minutes later, the assistant reported in a serious tone. Lingxuyao's face was already as black as ink.

After listening to the assistant's words, the pen in his hand "Ka —" was broken into two halves. The assistant felt a chill run down his spine as a vicious aura emanated from his body.

Lingxuyao threw the force in his hand onto the ground and suddenly stood up and walked out.

The assistant mustered up the courage to remind him, "Boss, the emergency meeting is about to begin. There are still five minutes left …"

Before she finished speaking, Lingxuyao had already disappeared.

In the hospital, Jiang Shuxia was curled up on her sickbed, her entire body occasionally trembling.

There was no one in the ward, not even a paramedic.

Walking into the sickroom, seeing her undead appearance, Lingxuyao felt an urge to kill even more.

He placed his hand on her forehead and could still feel the residual heat. Her high fever had yet to subside.

Looking at the half unconscious woman's face, which still had traces of tears on it, and the occasional mumble coming from her throat, she seemed so weak.

After a while, he finally heard the words coming out of her mouth. "Mom — take me away —"

A complicated expression flashed across Lingxuyao's eyes, his big hands brushed across her face, and his current state made him so distressed that he wanted to kill his.

The woman he doted on in his hands was actually being bullied like this!

Jiang Shuxia bewilderedly grabbed onto Lingxuyao's arm, shook her head somewhat fearfully, and muttered, "It really wasn't me who was pushing her, but she himself was letting go …"

A hint of coldness flashed through Lingxuyao's eyes once again. Exactly how frightened was she? That was why he was still sweating when he was unconscious, "Good girl, I believe you. Sleep, with me here, no one can hurt you!"

The door to the ward was pushed open, and a servant from the Jiang family walked in with a washbasin and towel in her hands. When she saw Lingxuyao sitting on the side of the bed, she was startled, "Sir, you are …"

Lingxuyao put his finger to his mouth and made a "shh" gesture.

The servant nodded and walked over quietly. He placed the washbasin on the shelf beside the bed, dipped the towel in water, and took it with his hand.

Lingxuyao raised his head, glanced at them, and extended his hand.

The servant, seeing how kind the man was to his young lady, must not have been a bad man, so he handed him the towel. He thought, this person might be the lady's boyfriend!

After taking the towel, Lingxuyao lowered his head and earnestly helped her wipe her face.

After wiping his face, Lingxuyao passed the towel to Xiao Ling and asked her, "Are there any other injuries on her body?"

"..." "Hm!" Little Ling bit her lips and spoke the truth, "There are also some injuries on her abdomen. The doctor has treated them and there are no longer any big problems, now she's just waiting for the fever to subside!"

The servant still remembered that when he wiped Miss's body, he found that not only was the palm imprint on her face shocking, but there were also bruises on her stomach. That kind of look made her feel like she couldn't watch any longer.

Lingxuyao stared at the spot where her face was swollen, and asked coldly: "Has Jiang Yu been to the ward before?"

The servant shook his head. "No!"

"Very good!" Lingxuyao nodded his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Jiang Shuxia had not let go of Lingxuyao's arm the entire time, so Lingxuyao had stayed in the ward to accompany her and did not leave.

Only after the bottle was completely filled did Jiang Shuxia feel better, and the temperature on her forehead slowly dropped.

Lingxuyao gently lifted the hem of her clothes. His abdomen was smeared with a layer of medicine, mixed with the bruises on his snow-white skin, making his look somewhat eye piercing.

The uncomfortable feeling on her body lessened a little, and Jiang Shuxia also slowly became more clear-headed. Feeling that someone was by her side, she slowly opened her eyes.

What entered his sight was a man's handsome side face. He frowned deeply as he lifted the hem of her clothes and stared at her stomach without moving.

She raised her hand to take off her clothes that had been lifted off, and with a weak and hoarse voice, she said, "Lingxuyao — —"

He raised his head to look at her face. Her lips were somewhat dry and rough, and her voice had become hoarse. However, her eyes had regained some of their spirit.

He naturally helped her to tidy up her clothes and covered her with the blanket again. He lowered his head and gently asked, "Are you thirsty?"

Jiang Shuxia nodded. Seeing Lingxuyao standing up and pouring water, she asked him with some hesitation, "How did you know I was here?"

"Yes!" Lingxuyao took a cotton swab and dipped it in water, wetting her dry lips.

Jiang Shuxia was so thirsty that she couldn't help but lick her lips.

After making such an action in front of Lingxuyao, she instantly blushed, and pouted, "I … "I want to drink some water!"

Seeing her shy appearance, there was a hint of unease in her. Her eyes sparkled like the eyes of a mischievous child.

He gently lifted her shoulder. "Can you sit up?"

Jiang Shuxia nodded, there were many places on her body that would be in pain if she moved, but she was fine with it.

After all, he had endured the painful experience from last night. Now, the pain was nothing.

Lingxuyao saw through all the things that had happened to her face. He released her shoulders, took a sip of water, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

The water slowly flowed into her mouth. Jiang Shuxia's arm wrapped around his neck, and slowly sucked the water that he sent over.

When she was done, she still felt that it was not enough and turned her head to look at him with wide innocent eyes. "Is there anything else?"

The corner of Lingxuyao's mouth slanted into a curve, and his eyes revealed a smile, "Good girl, you can have as many as you want!"

Only then did Jiang Shuxia remember that he had used her mouth to give her water. Her face was slightly red as she pushed his arm away, turning her head to the side.

Lingxuyao drank another mouthful of water and turned his head to cover his back once more. Jiang Shuxia did not dodge. She grabbed his neck and drank the water obediently.

"Lingxuyao..." Lingxuyao was still bent over her body, looking at her.

Jiang Shuxia's hands loosened their grip on his neck, and slowly caressed his handsome face, "What if there comes a day when you don't even want me anymore …"

Lingxuyao's expression tensed, and immediately thought of what she had said when he was unconscious.

She said she wanted her mother to take her away.

He knew how fragile her heart was.

In the next second, he replied with a very serious expression, "Don't worry, I won't!"

The corner of Jiang Shuxia's mouth curved, and the two of them looked at each other. She seemed to be very happy, "Thank you, even if you were lying to me, I am also very happy!"

At least for now, she wasn't completely ignored.

When she woke up on the cold floor last night, she'd been desperate, she thought, maybe she really was going to find her mother.

Only her mother would be able to calm her down.

She didn't want to do anything to the mother and daughter. She just wanted to protect herself. She didn't want everything to be taken away from her.

However, her father simply did not listen to her explanation. He directly and violently attacked her. Right now, she did not even have the right to protect herself.

Lingxuyao lowered his head, and leaned close to her ear, "I'm very serious." He was not deceiving or comforting her.

Jiang Shuxia regained her senses, and looked at the man's eyes with a slightly moved look, "Are you not afraid that I would get entangled with you?

Lingxuyao's thin lips slightly parted, and a smile spread in the depths of his eyes.

Ever since she appeared by his side, he had never intended to shake her off. He was very willing to be pestered by her for the rest of his life. "I'm really not afraid of that!"

Jiang Shuxia nodded, "That's true, you are Lingxuyao, what are you afraid of!"

Time passed bit by bit, and Lingxuyao's gaze was always fixed on her face, causing her to feel a little unnatural. He used his hand to block it, "I must be very ugly now, you better not be staring at me!"

Last night, Jiang Yu's slap was really ruthless. After finishing that slap, she was completely dumbstruck, his ears buzzing, his mind a mess, his whole person in a bad mood.

Perhaps this was her status in the family, a superfluous person. Even her father, who had been shouting 'big' since she was young, was so annoyed with her that he didn't hold back in his attacks.
