Ouyang Hao didn’t move his gaze, his lips curled into a faint smile. In his eyes, there was indifference and calm, mixed with disdain and sarcasm.
Lin Yixun couldn’t help but feel a wave of sadness. Why was she here? Why did she, like a fool, let Leng Yixiu do such things to her in front of so many people?
But this wasn’t what Lin Yixun cared about the most. What she cared about the most was that Ouyang Hao was also here. Over the years, she had faced too many cold stares, it seed she had already grown used to it. Yet she realized that in this world, there was one person’s cold stare she couldn’t bear, and that was Ouyang Hao’s.
Anyone in the world could look down on her, could belittle her, anyone but Ouyang Hao. Even if Ouyang Hao treated her with icy indifference, like a stranger, it was better than him looking down on her.
Summoning unknown strength, Lin Yixun pushed Leng Yixiu away and fled the villa hall rapidly. Her steps were swift, even though she was still in her maid uniform and barefoot.
But when she walked out the villa gate, her eyes were filled with confusion. It was only then that she belatedly realized that this was the outskirts of the city. The roads were barren, with not a single passing vehicle, only dim street lights standing lonely by the roadside, just like her current state.
Though she knew it was impossible to hail a cab here, Lin Yixun still didn’t turn back. She walked step by step barefoot along the main road outside the villa, her mind involuntarily recalling the previous scenes, causing her heart to feel desolate.
Just now, she had indeed pushed Leng Yixiu away in front of so many people, embarrassing him. She could easily imagine that Leng Yixiu must be very angry right now. But she had no ti to think about all that. She didn’t know where she was going; she just wanted to escape from there, far away from Leng Yixiu, and far away from Ouyang Hao...
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine roared from behind, and the road in front of her was illuminated by two headlights. Lin Yixun didn’t look back, she continued to move forward slowly, like an old woman.
The car slowed down and followed behind Lin Yixun. Seeing that Lin Yixun had no intention of stopping, it finally braked sharply and stopped in front of her.
With a loud slam of the door, a man got out of the car, grabbed Lin Yixun by the shoulders, and pulled her closer, furiously shouting, "Lin Yixun, where do you think you’re going?"
Her shoulders hurt from Leng Yixiu’s grip. Lin Yixun frowned slightly, slowly lifted her eyes, and gave a bitter smile, "I don’t know either."
"If you don’t know, then stop causing trouble. Co on, let’s go back!"
At the words "go back," a look of agitation suddenly crossed Lin Yixun’s otherwise gentle face. She struggled to break free from him and shook her head vigorously, "No, I’m not going back! I’m not going back!"
"If you don’t go back, do you plan to sleep by the roadside? Lin Yixun, don’t test my patience. Either you get in the car by yourself, or I’ll carry you in."
Lin Yixun knew Leng Yixiu was serious, and she couldn’t help but plead, "Leng Yixiu, please let go, won’t you?"
"Let you go?" The man sneered, "Lin Yixun, have you forgotten about our deal?"
"I regret it, can’t I regret it?"
"Heh, regret? Your mother’s illness was cured, and now you regret it? Lin Yixun, do you plan to break the bridge after crossing it? But Lin Yixun, don’t forget, I’m a businessman. Businessn don’t make losing deals."
"Leng Yixiu, why are you doing this? You clearly have Cheng Ying. The person you love is obviously Cheng Ying. What sense does it make to force to stay by your side?"
