Chapter 109: You Can ‘t Escape

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When they reached the bedroom, Lin Wanli asked Huo Jiuxiao to sit down on the sofa before reaching out to take off his suit jacket. Lin Wanli blamed herself when she saw that his gray shirt was bloodstained. [I shouldn’t have told you that.]

Master Xiao was nonchalant, “How was my act?”

[You still dare to say that.]

“Isn’t it very cost-effective to get a mother-in-law just by bleeding a little?”

Huo Jiuxiao chuckled. His exquisite eyes looked charming because of his smile.

Lin Wanli tugged at his shirt heavily, causing Huo Jiuxiao to grunt and frown. He seemed to have forgotten that his wife was trained and strong.

Lin Wanli saw his expression and lightened her strength. She unbuttoned his shirt and revealed his torn wound. Seeing that the newly grown tender flesh was bleeding again, she could not help but lean over and blow at it gently, but that made the man’s eyes instantly darken.

“Do you want to tear my wound even more?” Huo Jiuxiao turned his head and asked Lin Wanli.

Lin Wanli met his eyes. It was a very familiar expression. Every time the two of them got intimate, he would look at her as if he wanted to eat her up.

[I’ll go get the first aid kit.]

However, Huo Jiuxiao didn’t give her a chance to escape. He pulled her onto his lap and kissed her deeply.

Lin Wanli struggled to grab onto something, but because she knew his shoulder was injured, she could only give up resisting and obediently let him kiss her.

“You’re the best painkiller.”

After the kiss, Huo Jiuxiao held Lin Wanli with one arm and let her sit in his arms.

Lin Wanli didn’t move either. That was the first time they had an official hug since they had shared their feelings for each other. She had never listened to Huo Jiuxiao’s heartbeat seriously in his arms. His heartbeat was slow but powerful. That was a very normal thing, but she felt like crying for some reason because she almost couldn’t hear it anymore.

After she finished speaking, Lin Wanli put away the first aid box and left the bedroom in one swift step.

Huo Jiuxiao curled his lips and looked at Lin Wanli’s back. He thought to himself, “You can’t escape.”

After Lin Wanli left the bedroom, she went to the garden to look at Lin Xueyi. When she realized she was still drinking tea, she sat beside her and said, “I didn’t know he would come back so suddenly.”

“He called me mother quite smoothly.” Lin Xueyi smiled and said, “Wanli, you didn’t pick the wrong person. No matter what he did to the outside world, he still came back to see me with injuries because he cared about your feelings. I can sense that he values you. I can rest assured now.”

“He’s putting up an act.” Lin Wanli grabbed Lin Xueyi’s hand and said.

“Who is he? You should be content that he put up an act for you. In another two days, I should be reporting to the Yue Group. For convenience, I will move to Old Madam Yue’s place. I won’t ask too much about your matters. I know you know your limits. You are no longer the Lin Wanli from before.” Lin Xueyi was very relieved now, not only because of Lin Wanli’s strength but also because Huo Jiuxiao was behind her.

Although danger and opportunity coexisted, with their abilities, they would definitely be able to overcome everything.

Lin Wanli reached out to hug Lin Xueyi, feeling a little reluctant, “Mom, you must cherish and love yourself.”

“Don’t worry, I’m not the Lin Xueyi from back then!”

Especially since she was in the same position as Ye Weiyin, she would let Ye Weiyin know what it meant to be capable and what it meant to be wasting her efforts.

It was almost evening, and the cicadas were chirping non-stop because of the hot weather.

In frustration, Nan Xing sat in the dormitory and looked at the text message she sent to Lin Wanli. She wished she could delete it and pretend that nothing had happened.

Because Lin Wanli’s action was too humiliating.

How could a good -for-nothing daughter expelled from a wealthy family be even more arrogant than she was two years ago? Why did she always look so high and mighty? Why couldn’t she be stepped into the mud?

A few minutes later, Rui Jing returned to the dormitory from the cafeteria.

Seeing Nan Xing’s expression, she deliberately asked, “Didn’t you say that you were going to introduce Tong La to a job? Nan Xing, you still haven’t settled it yet? Isn’t this just a matter of a word from your boyfriend?”

“Aren’t you annoying? You only know how to ask about work all day. It’s not like you lack it. Aren’t you happy just working for an internet celebrity?” Nan Xing said angrily to Rui Jing, “In our dormitory, you’re the least capable. If you had focused on your major, you would have found a proper design institute long ago.”

“I’m not the one with the most crooked thoughts in this dormitory, am I?” Rui Jing snorted, “Nan Xing, I’ve wanted to ask this for a long time. Wanli has been back for so long. Have you looked for her? If it weren’t for her, you would still be selling sweet potatoes in some corner.. Do you know how to write the word ‘ungrateful’?”142.93.60.102
