Chapter 64 - Unwillingness to get entangled

Lin Xia Hua did not know why her attention was focused on Xu Zimo. Watching the two of them disappear into the crowd, she did not know if she felt relieved or disappointed.

Even Xu Lulu had temporarily settled down, having enjoyed a meal with all her guests. Especially her grandfather, who had seen how Lin Xiashua was smiling so much that she couldn't even see her teeth, repeatedly telling her to eat and drink well, and to give birth to a fat grandson for the Xu Family.

In the eyes of the vast majority of the Xu Family, the greatest reason why Lin Xiuhua could still remain in the Xu Family was because of that child in their womb.

After dinner, Macley offered to take his leave. As soon as he left, Lin Xia-hua was once again at the center of the conversation, and this time her words were full of questions about the relationship between Macley and her, which was why she was so protective of him.

Lin Xia Hua refuted that there was no door, so she simply stood up and walked outside. Finding a quiet place to rest was much more comfortable than being seen by them as a monkey here.

Because of his grandfather's birthday, this time, it was the Xu Family's old residence that had come. All the buildings were ancient-styled, complex and gorgeous, but they had been around for a long time.

Lin Xia Hua didn't care about that. She strolled along the courtyard wall, where there were still many people conversing with each other. When she walked past them, all eyes were on her, and they weren't kind either.

It was very uncomfortable.

Lin Xia Hua lowered her head. She just wanted to find a place with no people and temporarily hide. When it was over, she would return and leave this place without even looking back.

The backyard was very quiet, with very few people coming. The large open space was covered in flexible weeds, and it could be seen that it had once been rearranged, but it wasn't very attentive.

Lin Xiashua liked this place very much. It was very quiet, with no one around, and no one searching for him.

She walked slowly forward until she reached a small pavilion in front of her. Although the paint on the pavilion was already peeling off, one could still see how it used to look like.

Lin Xia Hua sat down on a stone bench in the pavilion, curled up her knees, and quietly closed her eyes.

At this time, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Lin Xia Hua lightly sighed. Did they hide here or not?

When she opened her eyes, she found that the person who had arrived was actually Xu Yimo, and had exceeded her expectations.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Xia Hua instantly put up all his defenses.

Xu Yimo stood in the middle of the small pavilion with his head lowered to look at Lin Xia Hua. His handsome and outrageous face was taut and was shrouded in a layer of dark aura.

"I should be the one asking you that, right?" Xu Zimo asked.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't tell me that you've learnt to take care of my emotions?" Lin Xia Hua didn't even move as she sat there steadily.

"Don't you want to give me a reasonable explanation?" Xu Zimo's pitch-black pupils became even darker as a hint of danger flashed through them.

Lin Xia Hua looked at him with a puzzled expression, not knowing what kind of explanation he wanted.

"What are you acting like?" Xu Yimo sneered, "Didn't you call McLean over?"

"Of course not. I even thought you invited me." Lin Xia Hua was baffled. She had come to attend this Xu Family gathering all because of her grandfather. How could she possibly notify Macley?

"Don't slander me! Macley is my master! You can't insult his character like that! " Lin Xia-hua's tone became excited. In both career and life, McLean had helped her a lot, and she could not accept such a slanderous way of slandering McLean.

"You also know that being associated with you is an insult to others? Why wasn't he afraid of being insulted when he did those dirty things behind the scenes? I think you just lack a man, right? You are not satisfied with having my child? " Xu Yimo said with a sneer.

Lin Xia Hua immediately jumped up and stood on the stone bench, her gaze was the same as Xu Ji Mo: "I can accept the fact that you don't like me, but please, give me the most basic of respect, don't use your dark thoughts to guess at me!"

Xu Yimo was stunned by Lin Xiashua's sudden burst of energy, the sharp lines of his face slightly tightening. He saw the purest anger in Lin Xiashua's eyes and couldn't help but feel his heart twitch.

For the first time, Xu Yimo had doubts in his mind and did not know what to say. He had originally come asking with anger, but now he felt slightly guilty.

"I don't know why you keep thinking I'm that kind of casual woman. Haven't you really changed a bit after all this time? Or am I really as low as dust in your heart? I once tolerated and felt wronged just because I liked you back then. When I didn't like you, did you think you could still use these to hurt me?! " Lin Xia Hua's every word was more decisive than his own. She had been holding back these words in her heart for a long time.

Xu Yimo suddenly looked up. Lin Xiashua didn't like the sound of these three words in his ears, which made his heart tremble. He didn't know when, but this woman's smile seemed to be able to influence his mood and actions.

For example, if what happened today was in the past, he wouldn't care if Lin Xia Hua and Macley had a relationship that exceeded that of master and disciple, and he wouldn't even rush over when all the seniors gathered around him asking questions.

He had always been proud and had strong self-control, so he would not easily affect his feelings. But why was it that in front of Lin Xia Hua, all of this was not even worth mentioning?

"Is there nothing more to say? If there's nothing else, why don't you go, or I'll go, and I don't want to get entangled with you like this anymore. It's still the same phrase, when the child is born, we can give each other back our freedom. " Lin Xia Hua did not have the mood to figure out the reason for Xu Zimo's sudden silence. With that said, she turned to leave.

His body was always more honest than his brain. Xu Zimo reached out and grabbed Lin Xiashua's wrist, but Lin Xiashua was caught off guard, and his body that was heading out was forcibly pulled back. His feet were unsteady, and he just happened to jump into Xu Yichan's embrace.

Familiar aura, familiar temperature. Lin Xia Hua closed her eyes, forcing herself to escape from this familiarity that caused her to want to sink into depravity.
