Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Xu Yixue’s Family_1
As soon as they got home, Xu Yixue had prepared slippers for Chen Shiyu and went to the wardrobe to fetch a women’s trench coat for her to put on.
The two hadn’t seen each other for a long time and naturally couldn’t wait to be together, especially since Chen Shiyu had encountered such an incident tonight.
Xu Yixue gently held her soft hands, letting her head rest on her fragrant shoulder, and comforted her with a gentle murmur.
Chen Shiyu had actually recovered quite a bit, especially since that driver had been castrated by Xu Fan, she wasn’t as scared anymore. Now with the comfort of her close girlfriend, her emotions had basically stabilized, only her beautiful, clear eyes were still a bit red.
It was at this moment, deliberately taking his time, Xu Fan entered, carrying his suitcase, with a calm and composed demeanor.
“Oh right, Xue’er, let me introduce him. He saved me, and he lives in this complex too. His name is...”
Chen Shiyu put on a smile, stood up to take the suitcase, and began to introduce him.
However, before she could say his name, Xu Yixue interrupted her calmly, “Shi Yu, we know each other.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“So you really do know each other.” Chen Shiyu was taken aback, then remembered that she had previously misunderstood Xu Fan; they did indeed know each other and he wasn’t deceiving her.
Ye Xiaoning brought over a plate of freshly washed fruit, smiling, “Sister Shi Yu, actually, I know him too. The gentleman who saved you is none other than my brother-in-law, Tongtong’s biological father.”
Chen Shiyu froze on the spot with her mouth agape, not expecting Xu Fan to have such an identity.
She actually knew quite a bit about Xu Yixue’s situation.
A few years ago, Xu Yixue suddenly flew to America because she wanted to give birth to the life inside her.
At the time, Chen Shiyu was furious, wishing she could hire a bunch of people to beat up that heartless and irresponsible bastard. But no matter how she asked, Xu Yixue refused to reveal his identity.
Now, the man was standing right in front of her, and he was her savior.
This put Chen Shiyu in a bit of an inner struggle, but after seeing Xu Yixue’s indifferent demeanor, her emotions immediately overpowered her reason. She felt that even if he had saved her, she should still side with Xu Yixue, so she turned cold and said sternly, “I was very grateful to you at first, but now to learn that you’re the one who abandoned her after creating chaos, I must have been blind.”
This man had caused Xu Yixue so much suffering, making her raise Tongtong alone. Chen Shiyu became incensed just thinking about it.
“But anyone with a brain can see that this is a very uneven agreement. Xinghai Media is only a second-tier media company, and with the family sabotaging from the shadows, it would be lucky not to lose money, let alone double the profit.”
Only then did Xu Fan realize the immense pressure Xu Yixue was under. He felt a twinge of heartache, and his expression darkened, with anger burning, almost unintentionally dropping the temperature in the room significantly.
The three women couldn’t help but look at Xu Fan in surprise.
“Very good,” he said, with a cold smile, trying to contain his rage. With Tongtong as a bond and spending day and night with Xu Yixue, he had long accepted her as his woman.
Little did he expect that so many people outside were eyeing Xu Yixue; this was like pulling a tooth from a tiger’s mouth, utterly reckless.
“Brother-in-law, if you saw how those people in the family treated Xue’er sister, you absolutely couldn’t stand it. They’re all so arrogant and commanding, not only forcing Xue’er sister into a marriage but even wanting to abandon Tongtong. They say that the marriage between the two families is drawing much attention from the outside world, and if Xue’er sister brings a little girl to the wedding, it might become the world’s biggest joke.”
Upon hearing that Tongtong was to be abandoned, the last bit of reason within Xu Fan vanished. Enraged, he lost control: “Hmph! They’re really thorough. But those who dare to trouble Xu’s wife and daughter must not know how to write the word ‘death’.”
Xu Yixue’s face turned suddenly red. Xu Fan, this thick-skinned man, spoke so naturally without even asking if she agreed.
Hmph! I’m not your woman, you’re just taking advantage of me because of Tongtong. I won’t just agree to you that easily.
Xu Yixue couldn’t help glaring at him fiercely.
Chen Shiyu glanced at Xu Yixue, then at Xu Fan, utterly confused, and quickly beckoned to Ye Xiaoning, whispering, “Xiao Ning, what’s their relationship exactly? I’m a bit lost.”
Ye Xiaoning giggled with a meaningful look, “Alas, the seeds of love have sprouted, but Xue’er sister isn’t ready yet.”
“Xiao Ning, you talk too much,” said Xu Yixue, glaring.
Xu Fan felt a bit hot in the face, but with Ye Xiaoning’s divine assist, he wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity. He promptly seized the moment to declare, “Yixue, with me around, no one can make you do something you don’t want to.”
“Mm,” Xu Yixue blushed and lowered her head, quietly humming in agreement, feeling sweet inside.
It was then that she realized: before, she faced everything alone. But now things were different; apart from the rainbow that was Tongtong in her life, she had Xu Fan, an even more dazzling gold light.
With Xu Fan by her side, she felt that many unpleasant things became unimportant.
Because Xu Fan would surely handle everything well for her.
