Chapter 157 - I'm Just A Nobody To Him Right Now

----Inside that car-------

Yue Xiang's eyes were fixed on the road ahead as he pressed his foot down harder on the gas pedal and increase the acceleration with a dark expression on his face.

The car speedily drove into a villa which was very familiar and stopped before the entrance. Yue Xiang unbuckled his seatbelt and rushed inside with an anxious face.

Housekeeper Huang, who welcomed Yue Xiang into the home, was breaking out into a cold sweat. His dark, narrow eyes were full of horror. "Young Master Yue, you came just in time. The Young Master is very adamant that you see him as soon as you arrive."

Yue Xiang patted his shoulder gently and said, "Leave him to me! Has doctor Bai arrived?"

"Yes. He is treating the Young Master in his room." Housheepker Huang escorted Yue Xiang inside.

Entering the room, the pungent, metallic odor of blood infiltrated his nostrils along with a hoarse voice of Xiao Hua(in Ye Xian's disguise) groaning in pain.

Yue Xiang's heavy footsteps broke the silence as he walked towards Xiao Hua: "Doctor Bai?"

Doctor Bai interjected. "The wound is about three inches long and just missed his heart. He will live."

Xiao Hua's face twitched, "Shut up! I am fine." He hollered at the doctor.

Yue Xiang felt an urge to slap him. How could he still say that he was alright? This idiot!

Doctor Bai carefully cleaned off the traces of blood around Xiao Hua's chest and then began to wipe the surrounding area of the wound. He then looked up at Xiao Hua, who was still conscious and calmly requested: "Please bear with the pain, for the time being, I need to stitch it."

Looking back down at the wound, Doctor Bai could clearly see the black handle, the length of his palm, sticking straight up from Xiao Hua's chest. Yes, there was a knife stabbed into his chest!!! Just missed his heart.

Suddenly...

"Ahhh!!" Xiao Hua(In Ye Xian's disguise) gave an agonized roar.

Doctor Bai pulled the blade out and started his treatment.

In front of them, the blood gushed out from Xiao Hua's chest like a river flow. Housekeeper Huang was about faint seeing the bloody scene before him.

Yue Xiang was perplexed at the bloody view before him. When he received the message from Xiao Hua, he didn't think the matter would be this serious.

Knitting the brows, Yue Xiang grimaced with a solemn expression: 'I told him to keep a low profile. Why won't he listen to my advice just one time?!?'

Housekeeper Huang was sweating profoundly. He was at his wit's end when his Young Master came home covered in blood. In a brittle voice, he asked Yue Xiang with a shiver: "Will our Young Master be alright?"

"Trust me. Doctor Bai knows what he is doing."

Twenty minutes later, the stitches were finally completed. The doctor looked up and heaved a sigh of relief as the sweat droplets on his forehead trickled down his face.

"Doctor Bai! Is he alright?" Yue Xiang asked in a hoarse voice as his gaze landed on Xiao Hua's chest that had been covered in a white bandage. When he entered the room, he saw Xiao Hua's entire chest was stained red and the wound was rather severe and deep. Any deeper, he would have lost his life.

Doctor Bai took a deep breath and answered, "There are no major issues with him now, but aftercare is very important. Although it's only a surface wound, the area is not small. He mustn't let his wound get infected and it is not to touch any water." He used his gaze to indicate the wounded area.

The housekeeper paid attention to the doctor's words and noted down all his instructions.

Doctor Bai then said, "It'd be best if he is hospitalized. It'd help his wound recover better and sooner."

Xiao Hua objected immediately in a cold voice: "Not needed."

Yue Xiang stared at Xiao Hua with a frown. He had an urge to knock his pals head into a coma and strap his body to the hospital bed, but thinking about his identity, it would be more appropriate for Xiao Hua to rest and recuperate while remaining hidden.

"Thanks for your help, Doctor Bai. If there is some emergency, we will notify you."

Doctor Bai nodded in agreement. After giving the necessary instruction to Housekeeper Huang, he turned and walked out the door.

Housekeeper Huang followed him out in order to prepare a light dinner for his Young Master.

------With Yue Wan-----

Believing that it was her big brother's car, Yue Wan followed it without a second thought. However, as soon the car entered Ye Xian's villa, she thought it might be related to his project so she stopped following it and prepared to turn back to her home.

Just as she started to turn the car around, she saw a very familiar face welcoming her brother from the rearview mirror.

In her heart, an enormous black hole had been forcefully ripped open looking at the scene. After taking a clear look at that person's face, Yue Wan's eyes widened and her face froze as she muttered each syllable of the words in dread: "Un.cle Hu.ang!"

Her bright golden eyes were fixed on the entrance where her brother being escorted inside. In her past life, she knew just how important that old man was to HIM, so she could definitely say that Xiao Hua was inside that villa.

But why...? Why is HE here? In Ye Xian's villa!

Recalling her big brother's anxiety to rush inside, Yue Wan's face filled with fright and helplessness. Xiao Hua had the habit of preying on the weak.

Images flashed by as she recalled her past and how Xiao Hua tortured Li Rong brutally for trying to contact her. Frightened out of her wits, she had been through all sorts of bloodshed and scuffles after marrying HIM.

What if he hurt her Ye Xian like that?!

I'm just a nobody to him right now, so why messing with my life? What right does he have to touch my man?

She gulped down her fear along with her anger and questions. She wanted to rush inside the house and confront that maniac, but... she was held down by an unknown fear.

As the minutes passed, the car stood outside the villa's entrance. Yue Wan didn't alight from the car, yet she furtively peeked at the entrance from time to time.

Suddenly two shadows emerged outside...

Yue Wan started panicking inside thinking that might be Xiao Hua, she shuddered, her teeth chattering in fear. 

No! No--o! I shouldn't let him see me...

She started the engine in order to quickly disappear from this place because of the fear of getting caught by Xiao Hua. 

R.U.M.B.L.E!!!

A clap of thunder rumbled violently in her ears, synchronizing with the sound of her engine as she started it.
