Li Xi suddenly did not know how to organize her thoughts. That's right, in her heart, Lan Yetian had always been protecting and taking care of her. But that was only in her heart, in her memory. It had already been so many years, but she had no idea what kind of life Lan Yetian was currently leading abroad, nor did she know anything about it. Furthermore, she could not confirm that the current Lan Yetian was similar to the Brother Lan that he knew in the past. Thus, she could not answer Xia Nuan's question.
"You are silent! Which also means, you don't know what the current Lan Yetian is like. You only know that he used to be a gentle and kind man, willing to protect you and take care of you. But I don't know what exactly happened to Lan Yetian, or what exactly was going through his mind, right? " Xia Nuan's words struck beside Li Xi's ears like a violent strike, causing him to be unable to recover from her shock for a long time.
After a long while, only Li Xi said weakly, "No matter how much the Brother Lan changes, I still believe that he will not be vicious to the extent that what you said!"
"I don't know whose side you're on. When I ask you to think carefully about it, since you are Lingyuxiao's wife now, and you are even carrying his child, if you choose to stand by Lan Yetian's side, how can the relationship between you and Lingyuxiao be clearly defined? " Xia Nuan sometimes thought that Li Xi was a hateful woman. She would not help when it was her turn to fight, and she would always cause trouble when she came out. If not for her, Lingyuxiao wouldn't have their relationship reduced to such a state.
"I didn't say I would stand by Brother Lan's side. However, based on what you said, how can I possibly believe you? " Li Xi began to become uncertain. Her relationship with Lingyuxiao had already become very bad. If Lan Yetian still wanted to mix in and cause trouble from this, then her relationship with Lingyuxiao would definitely break down. But she already had Lingyuxiao in her heart, how could she bear to separate from him? But on the other side, there was Brother Lan who was extremely protective of her. Although her feelings for him weren't love, she was like an older brother and similarly didn't want anything to happen to him.
"Do you know? The situation now is very tense. If you don't persuade Lan Yetian, the two of them would really fight. Would you like to see them both hurt? " Xia Nuan lobbied Li Xi further. She knew that Li Xi had wavered a little.
"But …" Before Li Xi could finish her words, she was interrupted by someone entering the room.
The one who entered was none other than Lingyuxiao. Why would he be at home at this time? In this period of time, Lingyuxiao seemed to have fallen in love with work, he only stayed in the company twice as long as he did not see Lingyuxiao for a week. If he told Xia Nuan these words, she definitely wouldn't believe it. The people who lived together everyday actually had the luxury of not seeing each other for as long as a week. These two people had clearly built a wall in front of them to live on!
Lingyuxiao did not intentionally come back at this time. He knew that at this time, Li Xi would definitely be downstairs. The servant would sometimes tell him a few more things that Li Xi had done regularly, so he had expected to see Li Xi again. However, he had a very important document in his study. If he hadn't been a workaholic lately, never able to sleep at all even when he got home, he would have gone to his study to study the company's future development plans, fell asleep on his desk when he was tired, woke up and hurried back to the company, then left the important documents at home, and never come back.
He just did not expect that Li Xi was not the only one that he saw.
"What are you doing here? Didn't I already say that you shouldn't look for me in the future! " Lingyuxiao saw that Xia Nuan was sitting not far from him. It was as if he was talking to Li Xi and started to doubt him.
"It's no big deal. I'm just here to take a look at Li Xi. Now that her stomach is getting bigger day by day, I need to pay more attention to it. " Seeing Lingyuxiao's serious expression, Xia Nuan knew that if she told that she came to find him to persuade him not to act against Lingyuxiao, he would definitely be angry at herself for making such a decision, so she casually came up with an excuse.
"Don't think I don't know you're not here to care about her. If the reason why you came to her is because of Lan Yetian, I advise you not to waste your efforts. " Lingyuxiao faintly found out about Lan Yetian's identity when he was overseas, and also knew that Xia Nuan was already connected to him, so he understood that if Xia Nuan showed herself here, it would definitely be related to the company Lan Yetian had recently come to deal with herself.
"I think you're being paranoid. I really just came to see her. Li Xi, do you think so? " Xia Nuan smiled as she spoke with Lingyuxiao. Then, he gave Li Xi a meaningful glance so that she could do as she said and testify for him.
Lingyuxiao looked at Li Xi's expression, then looked at Xia Nuan, and knew that she was lying. She definitely would not come over to see Li Xi so simply. Besides, he had said it himself. He didn't want her to appear in front of him again, and it had been a long time since he had last seen her. How could he suddenly ask about Li Xi? Furthermore, although Xia Nuan would lie, Li Xi did not. He could tell from Li Xi's expression that Xia Nuan was deceiving him, even though Li Xi did not say anything.
"Do you think I'll believe you if you drag her along to lie with you? Let me tell you, no matter if you came here today to persuade her to stand with you at Lan Yetian's side to deal with me, or just like you said, to come and see her, your intentions are definitely not that simple. "So, please get out now." What Lingyuxiao hated the most was having others lie in front of him. That was why he was so angry at Li Xi for tricking him, saying that she had to send her good friend out of the country before going to the airport.
"You misunderstood me! If so, let me tell you the real purpose of my visit. I heard from Lan Yetian his plans for the future, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to take on his attack, and I didn't want to see you injured, so I came to Li Xi to help, after all, she has a good relationship with Lan Yetian, maybe when she speaks up, Lan Yetian would stop. " Xia Nuan knew that once she told the truth, Lingyuxiao would definitely be angry. This was because she was worried that he would not be happy about her, and would instead be looked down upon for his ability. Lingyuxiao had always been a relatively self-centered person. He would not allow others to say that other men were strong in front of him, especially those that he hated or even hated.
As expected, after hearing Xia Nuan's words, Lingyuxiao's anger immediately rose. In Xia Nuan's eyes, he was such a useless man. She couldn't even deal with a single Lan Yetian, and she even needed a woman to deal with him. Did he really think that he was a vegetarian? She would obediently allow others to ride him. After all, he had come here for so many years. When had she ever accepted a loss, and since when had she truly acknowledged it?
"Get the hell out of here right now! Don't take my words for granted. I told you not to appear in front of me and her again. If you don't understand what I'm saying, I'll think of a way to make you understand. " Lingyuxiao practically roared these words out loud. It could be seen that he was very angry right now. A mad lion is not to be trifled with!
"Don't worry!" I'll go. However, I must tell you that I am not looking down on you. Rather, I am truly concerned for your safety. I'll tell you what you don't want, I won't do it. "But I won't just silently look at you. Please remember, I have always been right behind you." Xia Nuan knew that staying here would only make her more embarrassed. Why would she want to embarrass herself?
After she finished speaking, Xia Nuan stood up from the sofa and glanced at Li Xi. During the time that Xia Nuan and Lingyuxiao were talking, Li Xi had maintained her silence, as if this had nothing to do with her. She acted as if she did not hear anything, and stared dumbly at her own tea table.
"Pay attention to your body!" Really. It was definitely from my heart. I hope that you will be able to give birth safely. " Seeing that Li Xi did not notice her concern for him, Xia Nuan walked in front of Li Xi, made her raise her head and look at him, and then said what she felt to be the truth, more than gold. She did not know why, that although she clearly loved Lingyuxiao ruthlessly, she always hoped that everything that happened by Lingyuxiao's side would be fine, especially the things that Lingyuxiao cared about.
"Wait! Go back and tell Lan Yetian that I will definitely be defeated by his little blow. I also told him not to think about my wife anymore. He definitely wouldn't succeed. If he insists on going against me, I'll let him know what an unwise choice it is to touch my woman. " Even though his tone was overbearing, it was not difficult to tell that Lingyuxiao was truly concerned about Li Xi.
Hearing Lingyuxiao's words, Xia Nuan's heart instantly felt as if it had been frozen. She deeply felt Lingyuxiao's love for her, and she knew that she would never be able to change Lingyuxiao's mind again. Right now, in his heart, his brain was completely filled with Li Xi. Although he was always unwilling to express it in front of Li Xi, and always refuted the thought that she really loved Li Xi, it made Xia Nuan think that she still had a chance. But after today, Xia Nuan finally understood that she had lost to Li Xi. Lingyuxiao's words and her expression were all affected by Li Xi, which was something that she had always wanted yet had not been able to obtain.
Xia Nuan dragged her heavy body and left the Ling Family. She drove aimlessly along the road, not knowing where her next destination was. She just felt very tired, as if she couldn't use any strength at all.
After Xia Nuan left, the living room became silent once again.
"I will not meet the Brother Lan again!" It was only a simple sentence, as if he was vowing something to Lingyuxiao, but at the same time, it was also like admitting defeat.
"You can pretend you didn't hear her. As for the company, I'll take care of it. You just need to take care of your body. " Although Lingyuxiao's words were stiff, his concern for Li Xi was obvious from his words.
"I'm fine! Company... Is there a problem? " Li Xi knew that Lingyuxiao had been busy with matters of the company the past few days, and did not have much time to spare. He recalled the servant telling him that Lingyuxiao was asking him about his situation when he got home. Unconsciously, he started to care about Lingyuxiao as well.
"Not a very serious problem. However, in order to win, I need some special measures that I can take care of. "During this period of time, you will be very busy. If there is anything you want to eat or need, just tell the servants and let them buy it for you." Lingyuxiao actually wanted to take care of Li Xi, but he couldn't bear to take that step. He cared a lot about her, but he always pretended not to care.
"En!" Li Xi nodded in agreement. Then she remained silent.
Lingyuxiao hurriedly rushed back to the company, and didn't say anything more to Li Xi. However, after this incident, the tense atmosphere between the two of them eased up quite a bit.
