Chapter 272 Don’t leave me
Sitting in the car, Madam Ni sighed, “Chen, it was all my bad. I got you into trouble.”
Noticing that Madam Ni felt guilty, Ye Sichen comforted her gently, “It’s not. It has nothing to do with you. I’m the one should be blamed. I was so careless to that people from Yuezhao Organization find your hiding place.”
Hearing this, Madam Ni frowned deeper, “So, what are you going to do? Will Mrs. Baili reveal your ident.i.ty to the Allies?”
Ye Sichen shook his head, “No, I’m working with Yuezhao Organization now. She won’t reveal my ident.i.ty. It wouldn’t do her any good.”
Ge Li was indignant, “It was not Mr. Ye’s fault, nor the Madam’s. Xia Nuan is the one to be blamed. It was she who disclosed the address to Yuezhao Organization.”
Then she glanced at Ye Sichen. But seeing the serious expression on his face, she shut up.
Madam Ni nodded firmly as she heard that, “You are right. She did it. No one but she can do it. She had been stayed close to Chen, and she knew our hiding place. Judged through what had just happened, she must have been working for Mrs. Baili for a long time.”
Speaking of this, the anger in her eyes lit up.
Ye Sichen looked even colder than before.
But he didn’t say a word.
After Ye Sichen settled them down, he began to fulfill the agreement, preparing for the concert. As a result, he met Xia Nuan less than before.
Xia Nuan went to see him several times, but was turned away every time. Even though she used the children as an excuse, he still did not let her in. Ever since Ye Sichen signed the agreement, she had never seen the children again. Obviously, Ye Sichen had begun to distance himself from her, because he believed that Xia Nuan and Mrs. Baili were working together to plot him all this time.
Xia Nuan was unhappy every day. But she was still concerned about Ye Sichen all the time. She knew he was busy promoting the concert and rehearsals around the clock.
He also needed to accept interviews from reporters every day, introducing the progress of the concert rehearsal. Knowing that his costumes were not prepared yet, Xia Nuan went to Aoshi City to prepare costumes for him silently. Soon after, she and Lan rushed out the costumes and sent them to Ye Sichen. However, at this moment, Ye Sichen had already got his own costumes, which meant he didn’t need the costumes made by her.
Xia Nuan’s well-designed costumes were returned.
Looking at her hand-made costumes, Xia Nuan felt extremely depressed. She wanted to mend fences with him, but he didn’t give her a chance.
“Don’t be sad, Ms. Xia, Mr. Ye already has his own costumes. He didn’t mean to return yours.”
Lan comforted her.
Xia Nuan collected herself, then sighed with a bitter smile, “I know.”
“Good, then. Let’s get in the car.” Lan sighed with relief.
Xia Nuan folded her arms. Looking at the bright lights outside the window, she said, “I want to walk alone.”
“Do you want me to walk with you?” Lan suggested kindly.
“No, thanks. You should go home. You must be exhausted after these days working. Go home and take a good rest.” Xia Nuan held Lan’s hand for a second.
Lan nodded, “Alright, if there is anything I can do, please let me know.”
“I got it. Now go back and rest.”
Lan got in the car.
Xia Nuan walked toward the road silently, thinking about Ye Sichen. At this time, there was a person in front of her, so she stopped.
A man staggered toward her.
Xia Nuan frowned.
The man was not anyone else, but Ye Enchen. Since Xia Nuan had been worried about Ye Sichen, she had ignored Ye Enchen’s whereabouts recently. Now he suddenly appeared in Aoshi city, Xia Nuan felt a bit surprised.
Ye Enchen approached Xia Nuan with a worrying face. She wanted to turn around and pretended that she didn’t know him.
“Xia Nuan.” Ye Enchen stopped her.
She stopped.
“Don’t be afraid. I won’t hara.s.s you again. I just need your help now.” There was an unprecedented sense of sincerity in his tone.
Xia Nuan looked at him coldly and asked, “What can I do?”
“I want to know where Xia Yan is now.” After a long time of silence, Ye Enchen asked Xia Nuan slowly.
Xia Nuan shook her head, “I don’t know. I’ve been busy working in the company since I came back.”
Ye Enchen, however, did not believe it, “Xia Nuan, I just feel guilty for her and want to make up for my past mistake to her. Please tell me her current address.”
Xia Nuan was touched by his seriousness, “If I know where Xia Yan is, I might tell you. But I really don’t know where she is. She could be in Zhongshan City, or somewhere else.”
After hearing Xia Nuan’s words, Ye Enchen stood there for a long time, then he thanked Xia Nuan, got on the car and left.
Xia Nuan stunned for a moment, then kept going. At this moment, Shen An caught up with her, “Ms. Xia, did Ye Enchen hara.s.s you?”
He looked worried.
Xia Nuan smiled gently, shook her head and said, “No, he didn’t.”
Shen An relaxed a little bit, “That’s good to hear.”
Xia Nuan didn’t speak again, keeping walking alongside the road aimlessly. Shen An followed her without saying a word.
Unwittingly, Xia Nuan walked into a bar. It was the same bar she had entered with Lan Qing. Just like last time, there were Ye Sichen’s songs playing in the bar. The songs seemed to have magic power that drove her into it. Shen An followed her in.
She entered the bar and ordered a drink, enjoying it in silence. Shen An followed her in case she would drink too much.
Xia Nuan drowned her sorrows in wine, thinking that if she got drunk, she would forget all her troubles. However, the more she drank, the more clearly Ye Sichen’s face emerged in front of her.
Given her sadness didn’t fade away, she stopped drinking, pushed the gla.s.s to the bartender’s side, and tottered away.
“Ms. Xia, please slow down.” Noticing that she was about to fall, Shen An came up and held her in time.
With a click sound, Shen An’s eyes blinkered for a second. At first, he thought it was the flash light inside the bar. So, he did not care about it. But when he held Xia Nuan in the car, he heard the click sound again. This time he followed the light, then spotted a man in a cap. However, the man got in a car with his camera and drove away hastily.
Shen An felt something was wrong. He wanted to go after him, but considering Xia Nuan was drunk, he gave up chasing but to hold her into the car.
Xia Nuan got drunk, clutching her chest and mumbling Ye Sichen’s name. Shen An sped up and sent her back to her apartment in Aoshi City.
When they got home, Shen An boiled a bottle of ginger soup for her. She took sips of it and fell asleep on the sofa. Shen An stared at her face. Suddenly he approached, reached out his hands and touched her cheek. When he finally touched her lips, he couldn’t help but bow his head and kiss her cheek.
“Ye, Are you still angry with me?” Xia Nuan’s eyes looked blank. She hugged Shen An so tightly that she lit his desire.
Shen An’s Adam’s apple couldn’t help rolling up and down. It was hard for him to repress the desire, but Xia Nuan kept squirming. He looked at her delicate face and held her closer. When he was going to take a further action, he heard a door open outside.
Shen An was startled, released her reluctantly and held her into the bedroom immediately.
“Xia Yan will come back. Mr. Ye, you can rest in the room while you wait for her. She will straightly walk into the bedroom as soon as she comes back.”
Shen An circled Xia Nuan in his arms and held his breath.
After helped Xia Nuan to the bed, he was about to leave. But somehow, he felt a little bit guilty, and he didn’t have the courage to move.
“Well, I don’t want to bother you anymore, I’ll go to the bedroom waiting for Xia Yan.” It was Ye Enchen’s voice.
“OK. She’ll be back tonight.” Zeng Guihua’s voice was getting closer. Soon, she and Ye Enchen came to the bedroom where Shen An was…
Shen An supported Xia Nuan, standing behind the door and listening carefully.
Soon, Zeng Guihua left, leaving Ye Enchen in here. Shen An thought he could not stay here all night. So, when Ye Enchen went to the bathroom, he held Xia Nuan out from the door behind.
Shen An supported her to the next bedroom.
Since Ye Enchen stayed in that bedroom waiting for Xia Yan, that bedroom must belonged to Xia Yan, then this one should be Xia Nuan’s.
After Shen An got Xia Nuan into the room, he kissed her cheek, stood up, then left the apartment secretly and reluctantly.
At this time, Ye Enchen was waiting anxiously for Xia Yan in the room, checking his watch frequently.
Then, the door opened. Ye Enchen thought Xia Yan had returned, so he stood up and looked outside instantly. But it was Zeng Guihua who opened the door.
He felt a sense of loss.
“Mr. Ye, I’m sorry. This is not Xia Yan’s bedroom. It’s my second daughter Xia Nuan’s. Let me take you to her room.”
Led by Zeng Guihua, Ye Enchen went to another bedroom. Zeng Guihua had brought Ye Enchen into the wrong room before.
Ye Enchen stayed in the bedroom. The room was in complete darkness. So, he went to the bedside and turned on the light.
But there was a woman on the bed.
“Xia Nuan?” Ye Enchen was confused.
Xia Nuan was unconscious. She muttered as sadness appeared on her face, “Ye… Don’t leave me…”
