Chapter 424 - Both Of You Must’ve Skied Together Before. I Feel Very Uncomfortable.

Xin Ziao ignored him directly. He cast his gaze on Ruan Yang, who was behind Li Shaobin, with a faint sense of pain shining in his eyes. “Ruan Yang, I clearly understand what kind of person you are and what kind of man you like. He isn’t someone you would like at all. Stop using him to spite me.”

Ruan Yang frowned. When Li Shaobin saw how Xin Ziao had just ignored him, he was so angry that he wanted to use his fists again. However, a soft and gentle hand held him back.

He was stunned. Ruan Yang shook her head at him and she seemed a little helpless and tired. “Let’s go back. I haven’t had breakfast. Let’s not waste our time here.”

Li Shaobin thought she made sense. Why must he quarrel with Xin Ziao here?

Xin Ziao was an egotistical person. The more he quarreled with Xin Ziao, the more annoying he’d get. Besides, he didn’t want Ruan Yang to stay with him for too long. What if she regained her memory?

He turned around and held Ruan Yang’s hand as they walked away.

They had barely taken a few steps when Xin Ziao grabbed his arm. His eyes were filled with gloom. “Do you know what place this is? This is where Ruan Yang and I professed our love. Li Shaobin, do you find this fun?”

Li Shaobin glared and bared his teeth at him. Ruan Yang was afraid he would get violent, so she pulled his arm with all her might to pull him forward.

He allowed her to pull him far away stiffly. When they finally walked a distance away and he had finally calmed down a little, he turned back to realize that Xin Ziao was following them with a cigarette in his mouth.

He turned back to shout. “Xin Ziao, stop following us. Otherwise, I’ll call your mom and your wife.”

Xin Ziao stopped in his tracks.

Li Shaobin returned to the villa quickly while pulling Ruan Yang along.



When they entered the courtyard, he locked the door from inside. Ruan Yang turned to walk towards the house. After she changed into her slippers, she went in to look for food to make breakfast.

Li Shaobin walked to her with a glum face. “Ruan Yang, don’t you have anything to say to me?”

Ruan Yang felt a little frustrated. There was too much information that she had received that morning. She needed to cool down for a while, but when she saw the hurt in Li Shaobin’s eyes, she knew this wasn’t the time to cool down. It was time to extinguish the flame in this man standing in front of her. “Before you came, I already made things clear with Xin Ziao. Things are impossible between us. Whether it’s before I lost my memory or after I lost my memory.”

Her reply didn’t make Li Shaobin feel better. He still felt aggrieved. “Then why did you suddenly go out and see Xin Ziao? Why did Xin Ziao come all the way here instead of going to work?”

Ruan Yang was stunned. “Do you think I asked Xin Ziao over here to meet up?”

“No.” Li Shaobin hesitated to speak. “Xin Ziao also said this was where you two professed your love. Did you recall something, which is why you met him coincidentally?”

Ruan Yang was silent for a while. “When I went out in the morning, I did seem to recall some scenes but I really didn’t expect that I would see Xin Ziao there. I did follow the path that I found familiar but I didn’t have any other intentions. I would never reconcile with a married man. Besides… my current boyfriend seems way better than him.”

She looked at him with a grin. This made Li Shaobin feel much better and his face even flushed shyly. However, his uplifted mood was quickly suppressed by gloom. “It seems like you had a very deep impression of this place in the past. You really liked him a lot in the past. You might recall your love towards him when you regain your memory then you won’t like me anymore. Look at how he kept pestering you today and came all the way to the place where you professed your love. He must’ve not been able to let you go.”

“I might’ve really liked him a lot in the past,” Ruan Yang mumbled and said with a smile. “But it might’ve been before I met you, right? After I met you, I don’t think he’s anything special. Just like you said—look at what a good man you are. You don’t get involved with women and you don’t have any scandals. Sometimes, I feel like I don’t deserve to be loved by you.”

“Ruan Yang, don’t ever say that.” Li Shaobin quickly waved his hands and said stiffly, “I might seem very proud and boastful but I’m not someone who knows how to make a woman happy. Otherwise, Xin Ziao wouldn’t have said that about me just now. Xin Ziao has been popular with girls ever since a long time ago, while everyone just seems to be afraid of me.”

“Your tastes and hobbies seem to be a little weird sometimes.” Ruan Yang found him a little pitiful too. After spending some time with him, she could basically understand what kind of person he was. Li Shaobin might be good-looking, but his tastes in clothes would turn a lot of women off at first sight, especially since he didn’t like to do anything quiet during dates and only wanted to go boxing or watch Judo. It was a little hard for a normal woman to accept. However, she was friends with him first and had experienced how nice he was before her feelings towards him changed. “Don’t be so loud and fierce, and no one will be afraid of you. But all this doesn’t matter anymore. You’re mine already, so you don’t have to worry about what others think about you as long as I like you.”

Li Shaobin’s heart was bursting. After everything she said, Ruan Yang was trying to say that he belonged to her.

He was afraid she wouldn’t want him anymore and was more than just a little worried and down. Now that he heard her say that, he felt much better. “So, Ruan Yang, will you really not abandon me?”

“If you’re going to go on about it again, I won’t make breakfast for you anymore.” Seeing how he started on that again after she had said so much, she pinched his ear angrily. “Go somewhere else. I’m going to start making sandwiches. I’m famished.”

Li Shaobin stood aside obediently and watched her. After a while, he went out to take a look and when he didn’t see Xin Ziao, he heaved a sigh of relief. However, he definitely wouldn’t allow Xin Ziao to pester Ruan Yang again—not when he had finally come out with Ruan Yang to ski.

He searched on his phone for a long time before finally finding the phone number of Xin Ziao’s father, Xin Zhanheng. He dialed over. Although he didn’t know Xin Zhanheng very well, they had met and chatted several times in public before. However, it was still his first time calling Xin Zhanheng, so when Xin Zhanheng picked up his phone, he got a shock. After all, the Xin and Li families weren’t on good terms. When Xin Zhanheng spoke, he sounded apathetic. “Why, didn’t the Li family fall out with the Xin family recently? Why did you call me?”

The old fellow didn’t sound very nice, so Li Shaobin was also cold. “Uncle Xin, do you think I wanted to call you? It’s because of your beloved son. He keeps pestering my girlfriend. Why is he doing that? Is he trying to snatch my girlfriend away from me? Isn’t he already married?”

Xin Zhanheng almost vomited blood. His son had been hung up on Ruan Yang all day long in the past. Now that he had finally gotten married, did he provoke another woman?

“Who is your girlfriend? Is there a misunderstanding? Our Ziao isn’t like that.” Xin Zhanheng thought that with Li Shaobin’s standards, he wouldn’t be able to find anyone good.

“Ruan Yang. Ruan Yang is my girlfriend now. My family knows about it too and they’re supportive of us,” Li Shaobin said impolitely. “I ran into your son trying to pester my girlfriend this morning. He’s also been standing guard by my girlfriend’s apartment recently too. How annoying. Don’t think that the Li family is to be trifled with just because you have a marriage alliance with the Zhao Family.”

When Xin Zhanheng listened to the end, he stood up as he banged the table. No one knew if it was because of Li Shaobin or because of Xin Ziao.

“I’ve said everything I wanted to. I think you wouldn’t want news of your son not getting along with his wife after marriage to leak out. Act as you deem fit.” Li Shaobin hung up and felt way better. Xin Ziao was the most afraid of his father ever since he was young. Needless to say, he would definitely get a lashing out later.



It was around 10 am when Ruan Yang brought out the sandwiches she made. There was one for each of them and even milk and eggs.

Li Shaobin peeled the eggshell unhappily. “Ruan Yang, let’s not ski anymore and go back to Northern City.”

Ruan Yang looked at him. “You’re the one who said you wanted to come, but now you say you want to go. What do you want?”

“Nothing.” Li Shaobin pouted. “You swore your love with Xin Ziao here. Both of you must’ve skied together before. I feel very uncomfortable.”

“Then I probably would’ve also watched a movie and done other things with him too. Are you not going to do all that too?” Ruan Yang said. “We finally came here. Let’s ski for a while in the afternoon before going back. You still have to teach me.”

“You really don’t know how to ski?” Li Shaobin was in disbelief. “It might just be like playing pool. You might suddenly find that feeling and actually ski better than me.”

“If you’re not going, I’ll go on my own.” Ruan Yang ignored him and began to eat her egg.

“No, I should go in case you run into Xin Ziao again.” Li Shaobin decided he should keep a close watch on her.

Ruan Yang found it funny. This man wasn’t your usual type of petty.

——————-

When they arrived at the ski resort, Ruan Yang came out of the changing room, wrapped up tightly in a thick skiing outfit, but Li Shaobin was still nagging as he pulled her, saying, “Don’t be impatient. You haven’t gotten your wrist guard on properly yet. Although there’s a lot of snow, it’d still hurt if you fall accidentally.”

Ruan Yang lowered her head and watched the man squatting in front of her, helping her with her knee guard and wrist guard. He looked very serious and she felt moved by his actions.
