In this world, the debts of human relationships are the hardest to repay. Although she was pleased with Xing Yi, she didn’t want Lin Yixun to be with him because she owed him a favor.
Back then, Lin Yixun and Leng Yixiu’s marriage failed miserably because it was entangled with other interests. She didn’t want her daughter to be hurt again.
When Lin Yixun came out of the bathroom, her phone vibrated.
She opened her phone and saw a line of cold characters: "Come down."
She sneered; it was indeed Leng Yixiu’s style. In front of her, he was always stingy, not giving her a good face, and he was even too lazy to say more than a sentence to her.
Lin Yixun couldn’t be bothered with him. She threw her phone aside, lay on the hospital companion bed, and closed her eyes to rest.
Before long, her phone vibrated again. This time, the text had a few more words: "I’m downstairs at the inpatient department. If you don’t come down in ten minutes, I’ll come up."
Lin Yixun jerked up from the companion bed and walked to the window. Sure enough, she saw a black car downstairs at the inpatient department. A man, seemingly Old He, was standing by the car.
Lin Yixun wanted to smash her phone into pieces. What was wrong with this man lately? Was he so free? Could Leng’s be going bankrupt?
What exactly did he want to do?
She sneered again, knowing full well that Leng Yixiu wasn’t here to catch up, yet she had no choice but to go downstairs.
The one thing about him was that he always meant what he said. He could shamelessly come upstairs, but she couldn’t do that.
What he did to her father back then, her mother had never forgotten. Out of consideration for her, her mother hadn’t shown much hatred towards Leng Yixiu.
But Lin Yixun knew very well that even after all these years, her mother still hated Leng Yixiu. If her mother saw Leng Yixiu, Lin Yixun couldn’t be sure it wouldn’t upset her.
She couldn’t take that risk.
Lin Yixun lied that she was going downstairs to buy something and walked to the man’s car. The car windows were tinted. She could only see his outline and couldn’t make out his expression.
Old He saw Lin Yixun hesitating to get into the car. He gentlemanly opened the rear car door for her and said in a deep voice, "Miss Lin, please get in."
Lin Yixun hesitated for a moment, bypassed him, and then opened the front car door. Old He’s face stiffened slightly. He looked at Lin Yixun, then at his own boss’s face, and helplessly shook his head.
Who would have thought that the Lin Yixun who once clung to Leng Yixiu like a lifeline would now avoid him like the plague? Indeed, time can erase everything, even one person’s infatuation with another.
Lin Yixun chose to sit in the front passenger seat to keep a distance from Leng Yixiu. However, some people aren’t easy to avoid. As soon as she sat down, she heard the rear door slam shut, and in an instant, the man was beside her.
Lin Yixun angrily glared at him. She reached out to push the door, but just then, she heard a "click" as the door locked. Before she could react, the car sped off like an arrow released from the bow.
The neon lights outside the car swiftly receded. Without looking at the dashboard, Lin Yixun could guess that the speed was at least one hundred and fifty kilometers per hour.
The man didn’t even slow down to turn. If it weren’t for the seatbelt, Lin Yixun had no doubt she would have been thrown out.
Was Leng Yixiu courting death?
If he didn’t want to live, he shouldn’t drag her down with him. She had no interest in dying together with him!
