Chapter 231 Don’t Leave Me if You Love Me
Closing the door of the study, Ling Desheng asked Xia Xiaoluo to sit on the sofa politely. Xia Xiaoluo was trembling with fear. She didn’t know how severe Ling Desheng would scold her. She lowered her head and bit her lips. She was anxious.
“Why are you so nervous?” Ling Desheng asked with a smile.
“I…I’m not nervous!” Xia Xiaoluo was still nervous. Even if Ling Desheng asked her with a smile, she was still afraid.
“Oh! Forget it!” Ling Desheng shook his head. He sat on the single sofa in his study. He took a sip of tea and said, “I know you are obedient. You’ve tried to leave my son. Well done. You failed because your plan was not detailed enough, but I’m satisfied with your att.i.tude. Next time, you’d better leave him decidedly and leave a divorce agreement. If you need money or help, you can contact me directly.”
Xia Xiaoluo looked at Ling Desheng suspiciously. She didn’t know what Ling Desheng would do on earth.
“Since you had a miscarriage, you can have a rest for a period of time! Let’s say half a year! Don’t leave until your summer vacation. Prior to that, you have to stay with my son. You need to find a chance to leave in July or August. If I know that you are still staying with him in September, I will take you away in my own way. Your family and friends will also be affected. Do you understand what I mean?” Ling Desheng said casually, as if it was a trip or an outing, not breaking up a marriage.
“Half a year? Either let me leave at once or let me stay with my husband. I can’t bear a miserable life.” Xia Xiaoluo stood up. She could leave obeying Ling Desheng’s orders, but she couldn’t do whatever Ling Desheng asked her to do.
“You have no choice. Maybe you don’t care about your family because they treated you badly. But if you don’t obey my orders, your friends will be in big trouble. I think you will care about your friends such as Dou Ya and Ouyang Ziqian, who helped you when you ran away from home this time. The Ouyang’s family is powerful. I don’t want to make troubles. But if I want to punish Ouyang Ziqian, I will not leave anything behind.” Ling Desheng threatened Xia Xiaoluo.
Xia Xiaoluo frowned. Why did he threaten her again? She hated being threatened.
“How about that? If you obey my orders, I will not let you suffer from poverty after you leaving. The Ling’s family has a lot of money. But if you don’t obey my orders, you can’t afford the consequences.” Ling Desheng continued to threaten Xia Xiaoluo. His tone seemed to be the same as Ling Tianyi when he was overbearing.
“Bang!” The door of the study was pushed open.
“Xiaoluo will never agree with you about that!” Ling Tianyi stood beside Xia Xiaoluo angrily, holding Xia Xiaoluo in his arms.
Ling Tianyi was waiting for his father’s words. Xia Xiaoluo ran away from home not only because of his bad temper and the misunderstandings that were maliciously made, but also his father’s interference and threat.
Seeing Ling Tianyi’s expression, Ling Desheng knew that things could not be covered up. He said simply, “Tianyi, I’ve already told you that you two were not suitable together. You were not happy due to my words. You didn’t believe me at that time.”
“I’m not happy now. I’m very unhappy. You are threatening Xiaoluo to leave me secretly. If I’m happy at this time, I’m not a normal person.” Ling Tianyi clenched his fists. If Ling Desheng was not his father, he might have beaten him up.
“What’s the matter? What’s the matter?” He Meishu and Ling Tianxue came together.
Ling Tianyi was really angry. He couldn’t fight with his father, but he was depressed. He couldn’t control his mood. He overturned the tea table in Ling Desheng’s study suddenly. “I am the master of my own marriage, and no one has the right to interfere with my marriage.”
“Let’s go!” Ling Tianyi pulled Xia Xiaoluo to leave.
Xia Xiaoluo was scared to death. When she followed Ling Tianyi to the door of the living room, she regained her consciousness and said, “Darling, don’t do that. It is the New Year’s Eve, we shouldn’t leave like this. We have to eat New Year’s Eve dinner here. We can’t leave like this!”
“If I don’t take you to leave here, you will leave me.” Ling Tianyi still insisted on pulling Xia Xiaoluo away from the villa. He drove away quickly.
“But if we leave like this, your parents will be sad.” Xia Xiaoluo was anxious.
“If you are forced to leave me, I will be sad too, very sad!” Ling Tianyi stopped his car. He stared at Xia Xiaoluo with his sad eyes.
“Tell me, did you leave me because of my father?” Ling Tianyi stared at Xia Xiaoluo’s eyes. He was waiting for her reply.
“I… I don’t want to break up your relationship. Please don’t ask me again.” Xia Xiaoluo frowned. She was very tangled.
Ling Tianyi sighed deeply, and then he said seriously, “Xiaoluo, you are wrong. It’s not you who instigates the relationship between my father and me. It’s my father. He instigates our relationship. What’s more, Tianxue likes Chu Wei. But Chu Wei likes Cheng Yalin. So Tianxue has a bad idea. She wants to break up our marriage. Then she could push Cheng Yalin to me, so she has the chance to be with Chu Wei.”
“Cheng Yalin has been asking me out naturally or half unconsciously, but I refused her.”
“Chu Tong got along well with Tianxue. I think he fancied you. He wanted to break up our marriage too.”
“Xiaoluo, promise me. Don’t leave me.” Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo’s hands. There were too many people who wanted to break them up now. Ling Tianyi felt that his mother was not as enthusiastic about Xia Xiaoluo as before.
“I…I…” Xia Xiaoluo was too stammering to say a word.
“Do you love me?” Ling Tianyi asked.
Xia Xiaoluo nodded. She loved her husband but she didn’t dare to love him. She could not afford it.
“If you love me, please don’t leave me!” Ling Tianyi held Xia Xiaoluo’s hands, he kissed her lips.
“I don’t want to leave you, darling. But I can’t promise you that I will stay with you forever!” Xia Xiaoluo cried.
Ling Tianyi turned to Xia Xiaoluo’s co-pilot seat. He held her in his arms. “Darling, I know you are worried about my father. Don’t worry. If he asks you to leave again, I will go with you. I have devoted many efforts to Huasheng Group, but I can give up everything for you. I have a lot of skills. I can start a business from scratch. I can provide you the wealthiest life.”
“Believe me, Xiaoluo. I love you. I will give you happiness!” Ling Tianyi kissed the tears on Xia Xiaoluo’s cheek. He was very distressed.
“Darling, I’m not as beautiful as Cheng Yalin. And I’m not as elegant as she is. Besides, I’m not good at study. I failed all the exams. Are you sure you love me? You seem to match with Cheng Yalin. Cheng Yalin is a fairy but I’m a fool and I’m a glutton. I always make trouble. I can’t help you with your business. I don’t think I deserve you.” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly. This was also the true thought in her heart.
“You don’t deserve me? I’m ten years older than you. People always say that I robbed the cradle. I feel inferior, too!” Ling Tianyi said immediately. He was reluctant to admit that he was much older than Xia Xiaoluo. In order to make Xia Xiaoluo feel at ease, he even spoke it out.
“What’s more, the relationship between Cheng Yalin and I was in the past. I have nothing to do with her now. I keep avoiding to meet her for fear that you would be unhappy. I didn’t go out with her alone. The photo Tianxue showed you was fake. She photoshopped it. Even if Cheng Yalin is a fairy, she betrayed me. I can’t be with her anymore. You are really a fool. You often make a lot of troubles. I have made many exceptions to abolish public affairs because of you. But I am willing to do that. I am willing to deal with the troubles for you. You are also a glutton. But I will be happy and I have a good appet.i.te because of you. I’m not your teacher. I’m your husband. It doesn’t matter that you aren’t good at study. I like you. I love you. That’s enough.”
“Xiaoluo, I’m telling you my thoughts so clearly now. I love you. I will not be with Cheng Yalin or any other woman. Even if my father disagrees about it, wanting you to leave me. Then wherever you go, I will go with you. I will not let you leave me and I will not leave you. Trust me, will you?”
Ling Tianyi was very sincere, and nervous. He didn’t know if Xia Xiaoluo could really feel at ease and believe that he could protect her. He didn’t want her to do anything stupid anymore.
“Darling, will you leave me? Will you be tired of me?” Xia Xiaoluo added. “Not only now, but also in the future, will you be tired of me?”
“Never. I am reluctant to leave you! I will love you forever. No matter now or in the future, you are my favorite baby. You are the only one in my heart.” Ling Tianyi showed his loyalty immediately.
Xia Xiaoluo bit her lips, she didn’t say anything. Ling Tianyi said, “Well, I don’t know how to express my feelings to you so that you can trust me?”
Xia Xiaoluo kissed Ling Tianyi’s lips. “Darling, I believe you. I love you, too. I really love you. As long as you still love me and believe me, I will not leave you. No matter who drives me away, I will not leave. Of course, if you don’t love me, I will leave you and let you go.”
“Don’t worry, darling. I love you, I believe you. I won’t make you sad. If you are sad, I will be sadder.” Ling Tianyi held Xia Xiaoluo in his arms. He was worried about Xia Xiaoluo’s health, or he really wanted to make love with her at this moment.
“Darling, if you believe me, can you promise me one thing?” Xia Xiaoluo asked.
“Of course.” Ling Tianyi agreed immediately. No matter what Xia Xiaoluo asked, he would not refuse her, she dared not to refuse her.
“Don’t hurt my friends and cla.s.smates. Dou Ya is a girl. She told me that she hit you on the head with a rolling pin. Don’t revenge on her. She is my best friend and she has always been good to me. Ouyang Senior is a good person. I have nothing to do with him. Fang Ruichen and I are enemies. Although sometimes he helps me, I don’t like him. As for Chu Tong, I promised your father to leave you so I asked him to pretend to be my boyfriend. So that you will think that it’s my fault, you will feel at ease. But I didn’t expect things happened like this. I will make it clear to him as soon as possible, and I don’t want to carry out the plan of pretending to be fake couples anymore. Don’t beat him up again. OK?” Xia Xiaoluo said, looking at Ling Tianyi and waiting for his reply.
“I promise you!” Ling Tianyi nodded at once. “You and Chu Tong pretended to be lovers? You can’t pretend to be lovers with anyone else in the future. I will be angry then. However, you should make it clear to Chu Tong. Chu Tong wants to make it real.”
“I see. I can deal with it.” Xia Xiaoluo leaned on Ling Tianyi’s chest. They squeezed into the position of the co-pilot seat. “Darling, let’s go. I’m hungry!”
“OK! Let’s have a New Year’s Eve dinner only for two of us today. Let’s set off the fireworks in the evening!” Ling Tianyi returned to the driver’s seat. He drove home happily.
