Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Searching for Her Among Thousands
This was the first ti in so long that he couldn’t see through her. Or perhaps, he never saw through her from the beginning.
As for this woman, he didn’t even know what kind of feelings he harbored for her. In these few months since her appearance, Beichen Rui had gone from initial disdain to not wanting to lose her.
At so point, he seed to have gotten used to the days with this little woman by his side, harboring a selfish desire to keep her by his side forever.
Maybe it was the brief interaction that changed his mind, or maybe it started from that night four years ago... or even longer, perhaps that afternoon ten years ago. Maybe she had already occupied a place in his heart back then.
But... he had always been disdainful. Four years ago, he took her virginity, forced her away from her hotown, letting her go to Arica alone to give birth to Jingxi, and he was disdainful.
Four years later, she returned with their child, but his grandfather took Jingxi away without considering her wishes, and he even claid that once he found the child’s mother, he would send her back to where she ca from.
He persistently believed that Jingxi’s mother was soone who was calculating and manipulative, ignoring the fact that she was right there by his side as his assistant at the ti.
However, when he sent soone to the database for verification, he realized the problem wasn’t there. He rembered the little guy giving him a hint, saying his mommy’s last na was Ye.
Not until then did he belatedly realize that the mother of the little guy he had been looking for was right by his side all along.
As the saying goes, "I searched for her thousands of tis. Suddenly looking back, that person was in the dim light."
He could only bla his paranoia for overlooking the simplest fact... He never considered that no mother would use her son as a pawn to get what she wanted.
Of course, those deeply scheming ones being an exception.
...When he discovered that Ye Xinluo was Jingxi’s mother, for a mont, he didn’t want this little woman to leave his side.
Thus, he used sending Jingxi abroad as an excuse, wanting to keep her by his side forever.
Ye Xinluo also agreed, saying it was for the child’s sake they stayed together.
During this ti, the relationship between the two was still fine, but at so point, Beichen Rui felt that Ye Xinluo was deliberately keeping her distance from him.
Maybe, it started when he accidentally broke the watch she bought for him! Since then, Ye Xinluo seed like a different person.
From that mont on, Beichen Rui gradually realized he seed to be increasingly unable to be apart from this little woman. When she smiled, he would smile along; when she was unhappy, his mood would turn sour too!
Returning to his senses... his gentle gaze fixed on Ye Xinluo, never leaving for a mont. He didn’t know how long this lasted until he finally couldn’t hold out any longer, then gently lay down beside her.
His right hand reached over her neck, pulling her into his arms entirely, and he slept dreamlessly all night...
...
The next morning, Ye Xinluo woke up naturally, finding that Beichen Rui was no longer by her side. The spot on the bed was already cold, indicating he had been gone for a while.
She pulled the covers aside and got out of bed, suddenly realizing the room didn’t feel cold anymore. She turned to check the air conditioner, and the temperature was normal.
Probably Beichen Rui called soone to repair it! Not thinking too much, she turned around and went into the bathroom to freshen up.
After washing up, she walked out of the room. In the living room downstairs, Dr. Shen was changing Beichen Rui’s dressing.
She walked down the stairs to the first floor and headed towards them.
Beside the sofa, Shen Tianyu was carefully removing the gauze, took out so cotton balls soaked in dical alcohol, and started disinfecting the wound bit by bit.
