This man likes to hurl insults? Then let him. After all, he saved . Letting him vent a bit isn’t a big deal.
"You knew perfectly well that my grandmother wasn’t calling you over for anything good, and yet you still went!" Yan Ting was genuinely furious—furious that this woman didn’t know how to take care of herself, couldn’t distinguish right from wrong, and didn’t grasp the need to be wary of danger.
If she got beaten, she deserved it.
Lin Banxia flinched in fear at his angry words.
"Spit it out. What exactly were you trying to do? You were hoping my grandmother would accept you at such a ti? Were you trying to curry favor with her?" Yan Ting truly wanted to knock open her little head to see what exactly was going on inside.
"You’re right. I was trying to curry favor with her." Lin Banxia didn’t deny it. At first, she thought that since Mrs. Huo was his grandmother, not going would make her seem unfilial.
"And what was the result? You earned yourself a beating?" Yan Ting genuinely wanted to shake this little fool awake to make her understand the importance of protecting herself.
"I didn’t think your grandmother would be that harsh." Lin Banxia’s eyes reddened, and she spoke in a nasal voice, "At first, I just thought that since she’s your grandmother, not going would make unfilial."
Yan Ting had been gearing up to mock her so more, but when he heard her say the word "unfilial," his expression shifted slightly.
All the scolding words he had prepared vanished without a trace.
The tall figure sat down by the hospital bed. Lin Banxia looked nervously at the man in front of her.
Was he scolding her earlier because he really thought she deserved the beating?
"I was too naive. I thought I could build a good relationship with your grandmother... I didn’t expect... she would refuse to tolerate like this." Lin Banxia’s voice grew smaller and smaller, tinged with self-mockery.
Yan Ting gently lifted her small face. Lin Banxia’s beautiful eyes were filled with panic.
In the next mont, the man’s thin lips ca down on hers. Lin Banxia was even more startled.
Yan Ting rely sucked lightly on her lips a few tis before releasing her.
"My grandmother is a stubborn old woman. Gaining her favor won’t be easy. Don’t rush—we have all the ti in the world." Yan Ting’s voice had lost its earlier anger, leaving only a tender coaxing tone.
Lin Banxia was still imrsed in that comforting kiss. When she processed his words, her beautiful eyes fluttered slightly.
"I won’t do it again next ti!" She no longer dared to entertain such naive thoughts. One beating had already been a painful enough lesson.
Yan Ting’s fingers rested gently on the wounds at her neck, his brows furrowing tightly. "Do you rember who hit you?"
Lin Banxia froze at his question.
"I rember!" Having suffered such a painful beating, Lin Banxia would rember those people’s faces even in death.
"Good. Point them out one by one." Yan Ting’s tone seed calm, but the hidden nace in his words made Lin Banxia deeply moved.
"You... you’re going to avenge ?" Lin Banxia asked uncertainly.
She hadn’t dared to hope for revenge in the first place.
"My wife was beaten like this. If I don’t do sothing, I won’t feel right." Yan Ting’s voice was soft, but that one word—wife—made Lin Banxia’s heart ache faintly.
He recognized her as his wife. That feeling was truly wonderful.
"Mm, I’ll identify them for you. Thank you for avenging ." Lin Banxia was so moved that tears began to fall.
The feeling of being cared for... it was so, so good. This was sothing she hadn’t experienced in the three years of her past life.
Yan Ting watched as her tears rolled down and felt his heart tighten slightly. His fingers, almost instinctively, reached out to wipe her tears away.
