Chapter 97

Chapters 97 - 97: His decision

"I've found the person I should be looking for. Put on your clothes and take your people away. " The cold words, neither salt nor water, were spoken out of the corner of his eye as he glanced at Hong Lian who was lying on the bed.

Her body was like a tornado that swept through her heart. A woman, whether she was poor or lowly, shouldn't be sullied. That was an insult to her character.

However...

Just like that …

Her mind kept thinking about the scene from just now, as well as Hong Lian's soulless expression, which became more and more ferocious.

The carving knife in his hand trembled continuously …

"Su Xiao Wu, you killed my sister first, and then dare to point your blade at me like that. Do you know how disrespectful this is? I can punish you at any time! " Pei Mo bellowed.

"Shut up!" Long Ye Tian coldly looked at Pei Mo, "Pei Mo, remember, first, Su Xiao Wu did not kill your sister. Secondly, you kidnapped a good citizen.

With these words, Pei Mo was berated to the point of being rendered speechless.

Long Ye Tian glanced at Hong Lian who was on the bed: "Wear your clothes properly."

Ever since so many people had come in, Hong Lian had been using a blanket to cover herself. She was curled up on the bed, looking extremely pitiful.

He was enough to intimidate everyone here. Even Pei Mo didn't dare to say anything, let alone a servant. Therefore, all of them had their heads lowered, not daring to make a sound.

In that abnormal silence …

Xiao Wu supported Hong Lian and left the Pei household.

"This place is so beautiful, is this Mr. Long's home?" Entering the Long family's villa, Hong Lian smiled and turned to look at Xiao Wu. Although her face was pale, she did not reveal any unusual expression.

Looking at the smiling Hong Lian, she felt even more pity: "Mhm." Because it was Long Ye Tian who drove the car, she did not notice it on the way. When she stopped the car, she realized that it was actually his house.

That's good too, the apartment she was currently living in did not even have a reserve medicine box, which was not something that Long Ye Tian lacked.

After bringing Hong Lian to the guest room, the servant brought back a new set of clean clothes.

"Hong Lian, go and change your clothes. I'll go and get a medicine box to help you clean up." After passing the clean clothes to Hong Lian, she didn't even dare to look at the bruises and purple marks on Hong Lian's body.

"Sister Xiao Wu, don't worry about me. Go and apply some medicine, your head … …" Hong Lian worriedly looked at Su Xiao Wu's forehead, and there was even more guilt in his eyes. If not for her accidentally being caught by a bad person, Sister Xiao Wu would not have been injured …

"It's nothing, just a little wound. Change your clothes first. " Su Xiao Wu quickly shook his head and turned to leave the guest room.

When she left the room and closed the door, she saw from the corner of her eyes that Hong Lian's body was covered in even more scars than she had imagined when he had taken off his clothes.

She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. Ye Zichen quickly walked out and closed the door.

As he stuck to the door, Xiao Wu felt that his body no longer had any strength, and only pursed his lips.

Because Hong Lian was here, she had to hold back her tears.

She had thought about many bad things along the way, thought that Hong Lian would probably be beaten up or injured, but she never thought that it would be such a punishment.

Tears filled her eyes, but she trembled and did not cry.

In the house, Hong Lian hugged the clothes Xiao Wu gave her and squatted on the ground. She covered his face with both hands as she sobbed. She didn't dare to cry out because she was afraid that people outside would hear it …

Tears moistened her face and hands. The moment she closed her eyes, it was all the scene of that man pressing her down on the bed. She wanted to forget, she tried her best to forget, but she couldn't!

He didn't know what to do to forget.

An unknown amount of time passed.

Su Xiao Wu had only dared to come in to find Hong Lian after calming himself down, and gently helped her to wipe the injuries on her body. Hong Lian had also been very quiet this entire time.

It was as if nothing had happened.

After wiping the medicine off, he said, "You're tired, just rest here. We don't need to rush back." It was rare to see that she was not in a hurry to leave Long Ye Tian's home.

Hong Lian nodded her head obediently.

Xiao Wu smiled slightly: "Hong Lian, do you have a place to go?"

Hong Lian shook her head.

She continued to ask, "Do you want to return to your hometown?"

"Sister Xiao Wu, don't abandon Hong Lian …" Hong Lian excitedly grabbed Su Xiao Wu's hand.

Originally, she had wanted to buy Hong Lian a place to stay from him. However, she hadn't thought that what she would bring him was a nightmare: "You staying by my side might not be appropriate, and will bring you disaster."

She was indeed lacking in thought. She only wanted to have one more person to eat and one more pair of chopsticks to eat. She never thought that it was not a safe place to be in, and instead caused an irreparable mistake.

"Hong Lian is not afraid. Sister Xiao Wu said before that if I follow you, I will be your man in the future. Even if there is a disaster, I am not afraid." Hong Lian shook her head in panic. Ever since she was sold to the auction, she had been living a life of her own, being bullied everyday. Although they did not spend much time together, she could tell that Sister Xiao Wu truly treated her well. For her, the only thing she was afraid of was being alone again.

Su Xiao Wu was a little stunned. She did not expect that even after experiencing such a terrifying thing, Hong Lian would still be willing to stay by her side …

There was a long silence.

Xiao Wu finally nodded.

Hong Lian heaved a sigh of relief...

Seeing that she was resting, Su Xiao Wu carefully left her room.

"Mummy... "Yes …" Just as she walked out of the room, a small fellow jumped in front of her and handed her a bottle of medicine.

"Xuan Xuan, didn't I already say that when you are at Long Ye Tian's house, be careful when you call out to your mother." Xiao Wu squatted down and reminded her. He took a bottle of medicine from his son's hand, which was used to clean the wound on her forehead: "Who gave it to you?"

"papa told me to give it to you. Mummy... Did you walk and wrestle? "To bump into such a big hole." Xiao Xuan Xuan blinked his eyes, and curiously stared at Su Xiao Wu's forehead.

"It's fine. It'll be fine very soon."

"Mummy... You have to be careful, what if your face is disfigured, and the papa does not want you anymore? " Xiao Xuan Xuan reminded her in an exceptionally serious tone.
