Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“No…” Gu Mian wanted to turn him down.
“Stop pus.h.i.+ng yourself. You’re too frail. Mian Mian, I’m your Lu Ming even though we have been separated for more than four years. Have our feelings for each other faded?” There was a look of anguish in Tang Ming’s eyes.
When Gu Mian heard that she almost burst into tears. She was very upset and all she wanted was a shoulder to lean on for a while—even just for a moment, because she was already on the verge of complete meltdown.
Eventually, Gu Mian told him her ward number and let Tang Ming walk her back to the room.
Tang Zui was standing at the elevator waiting area as he watched them. He furiously tossed the bag of food he bought for Gu Mian into the trashcan and strode towards Gu Mian’s ward.
There was a loud thud as he kicked open the door.
Gu Mian was startled. Displeased, Tang Ming turned to look at the doorway. When he saw that the person who entered the ward was Tang Zui, his gaze froze.
The moment Gu Mian saw Tang Zui, her legs went limp. Tang Zui fixed his gaze on Tang Ming’s arms around her. Gu Mian snapped out of her reverie and immediately shoved Tang Ming away.
“Why are you here?” Tang Ming furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Tang Zui.
“Why am I here? Why don’t you introduce me to him, my dear wife?” Tang Zui glared at Gu Mian.
When Tang Ming heard what he said, he felt as though a sword was being mercilessly pierced through his heart. ‘Gu Mian is already married, and her husband is Tang Zui!’
He felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation in his chest. ‘So, I was still too late.’
He thought that since Gu Mian had yet to turn twenty this year, she could not possibly be married. He a.s.sumed that he had plenty of time to get her back. ‘How did things turn out this way?’
Agony and regret flashed past Gu Mian’s eyes as well, for she truly adored Lu Ming. When they were together for half a year before she left to study overseas, it was the best time of her life…
Tang Zui noticed the doting look on Gu Mian’s face. His facial expression became increasingly grim.
‘She’s in love with this man! She’s seriously in love with Tang Ming— the person I hate the most in the world!’
Gu Mian did not have time for reminiscence now, for no one knew better than her how horrifying Tang Zui could become.
At that moment, when Gu Mian saw the look on Tang Zui’s face, she knew that he was very angry right now. She feared that Tang Zui would attack Tang Ming as well, so she looked up at Tang Ming and said, “Thank you for walking me back to my ward. You may leave now.”
“Mian Mian…” Tang Ming gazed at her worriedly. There was pity and fondness in his eyes.
“I’m really grateful for your help. Please go home now.” Gu Mian sensed that Tang Zui had become increasingly angry. All she could do was to shove the man beside her away. She stared at him pleadingly.
Tang Ming furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at her. ‘She’s afraid of Tang Zui, and she doesn’t seem to have a happy marriage with him!’
“Take good care of yourself. I’ll visit you again whenever I’m free.” Tang Ming took a deep breath. Reluctant to leave, he glanced at her and left.
When Tang Ming walked past Tang Zui, he paused for a moment. Eventually, he left anyway.
After Tang Ming left, Tang Zui suddenly stomped on the door. He walked towards the girl by the bed slowly.
The moment he approached her, Gu Mian smelled a strong whiff of alcohol. She furrowed her eyebrows. Tang Zui reached out and held her chin between his fingers, forcing her to raise her head. He suddenly started laughing. “What? Are you afraid that I’ll hurt your lover?”
“I don’t know what you’re saying. You’re drunk.” Gu Mian tried to shake off his hand. There was no expression on her face.
Tang Zui gazed at the expressionless small face before him. He recalled the way she appeared so submissive in another man’s arms and even allowed him to hold her. The two of them seemed incredibly close and were staring at each other with adoring gazes. When he thought of that, he became awfully furious!
