Ming Xi raised her head and looked at Xue Qi in shock. Seeing that his brows were tightly knitted, and thinking back to what Li Xue had just said, she shook her head and took a step back, "I don't know! "I don't want to know either. I want to be alone and go home quietly!" After saying this, Ming Xi ran away as if she was running for her life.
Seeing Ming Xi's fleeing back, Xue Qi's eyebrows creased even more deeply in shock. If he didn't erase the shadow in her heart, perhaps there would be a gap between them that they would never be able to cross!
Having made up his mind, Xue Qi turned back in shock and walked towards Li Xue. Five years ago, he'd run into her in the hospital. Would she have known something?
The night was getting darker. Ming Xi walked alone on the mountain path leading to the Xue family. Watching the winding mountain road become extremely hazy under the dim light of the street lamps, her heart also began to feel depressed. She walked slowly until she was sitting on the asphalt by the side of the road, looking at the dark shadows of the trees at the foot of the mountain.
It was unknown how long she sat there before Ming Xi heard footsteps approaching her from behind. She turned her head abruptly, and saw Xue Zhiwei standing less than a meter away from her, looking at her.
"Ivy? "You …" Ming Xi stood up from the ground in surprise and looked at him with some concern. That day, after the fight with Xue Qi, he left together with his mother. After that, they disappeared into thin air, as if they had never existed.
Xue Zhiwei raised his eyebrows and walked over to a tree. He lazily leaned against the tree, his devilishly deep eyes locked tightly onto Liu Xi.
"What are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that?" Ming Xi smiled, but it was an extremely weird smile.
Xue Zhiwei did not speak. Instead, he stuffed his hands into the pockets of his pants and shook them.
"It has only been a few months since we last met, have you become a mute?" Ming Xi grinned.
Xue Zhiwei only lowered his head slightly, not saying a word. Seeing that he had remained silent, Ming Xi suddenly felt that the atmosphere had become very strange. She coughed twice and changed the topic, "That's right, where have you been these past two months?"
Xue Zhiwei was silent for a long time before he finally opened his mouth and said, "I'm going to the Paradise!"
Ming Xi was amused by his words. She pursed her lips into a faint smile, walked to Xue Zhiwei's side and asked, "I'm telling you, where have you been these past two months? "Today, why did you suddenly come out again?"
Xue Zhiwei raised his eyebrows and remained silent. He left the tree and said to Tantai Xi, "Mother Yaksha, I …" Xue Zhiwei saw Ming Xi's large round eyes and did not know how to respond to her sudden words.
"What's the matter?" Ming Xi was curious to see how much Xue Zhiwei wanted to say but hesitated. At the same time, she also felt uneasy. Xue Zhiwei had always said whatever he wanted to say, always boasting shamelessly. Now, however, he was actually hesitating and stuttering. This time, he seemed to have returned with a completely different person!
"Do you have something to tell me?" Seeing that Xue Zhiwei had no intention to answer, Ming Xi continued to ask.
"No!" After a fierce struggle within his heart, Xue Zhiwei finally could not tell him what had happened. "Yaksha, the night is very cold. I'll send you back!"
Having said so, Xue Zhiwei took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders. Seeing more or less astonishment in her eyes, Xue Zhiwei suddenly grinned. No matter what, she was still his favorite woman. No matter what happened, he would always stay by her side.
Ming Xi smiled and then slowly walked toward the Xue Clan on the mountaintop, following Xue Zhiwei's footsteps.
Xue Qi stood in front of the gate in shock, pacing back and forth anxiously. From time to time, he would lift his hand and observe the time. Even if the second hand moved a little, he would still feel that it was very long.
"Where did this woman go?" Surprised, Xue Qi scratched his head with a great headache. Didn't she say during the day that she was tired and wanted to go home? Why is he still not back yet? During the day, he shouldn't have let her go home alone. He should have accompanied her back. Could something have happened to her?
Thinking up to this point, Xue Qi felt a sense of fear and trepidation. He had told her during the day that he would be worried if he couldn't find her, but she had ignored his words.
After waiting for three minutes in shock, Xue Qi finally couldn't control his urge to drive down the mountain and find her. However, Ming Xi laughed happily right after he had walked a few steps away. Xue Qi paused for a second in shock, and his tense nerves started to calm down as well. When he heard the voice, he looked over, and the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
"Pig, do you mean to say that you've been in the countryside these past few months? No wonder I couldn't find you! " Ming Xi couldn't help but smile as she listened to Xue Zhiwei talk about some of the foolish things he had done.
"Yes, I've been in the country for months. It's very quiet there, and the air is very fresh. The villagers are all very simple and honest, and this is a very good place! " Xue Zhiwei continued, "Oh right, mother Yaksha, you don't know, the most embarrassing thing I met in the countryside was …"
"Wife …" Why did you come back so late? I'm worried to death! " Before Xue Zhiwei could finish his sentence, Xue Qi purposely called out the word "wife" loudly and affectionately. He walked up to Tantai and pulled her into his arms. Then, he glared at Xue Zhiwei fiercely!
