All Yuexi wants is to scold him . Such a r.e.t.a.r.ded! She steps back, stares coldly at the direction of the shadow, and says, "You stay away from me!" Her pores are filled with refusal . "What drug did Li Fengjue give you? I’m here to save you, and I can give you as much money as you want! If he really cares about you, he would come here . "
He rushes over here as he speaks, which scares Yuexi . She subconsciously tries to dodge him, but accidentally hits her elbow at the corner of the table . It makes her cry out of pain . At the same time, Xu Linchen rushes towards her again, trying to kiss her neck . With wounds on her hand, she doesn’t have any strength to push him away . But she gropes in the dark, and finds a square object . Then she smashes it hard against his head .
"Ah!" Xu Linchen screams, and lets go of Yuexi . Surrounded by the dark, Yuexi couldn"t see how badly injured he is . Trembling, she runs away . At that time, lightning flashes, and thunder rumbles . In no time, it rains cats and dogs .

Yuexi panics, not knowing what to do next . How is Xu Linchen? Is he dead? When she leaves, she seems to hear the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground . The rain is pouring, and Yuexi"s thin skirt clings to her body . She couldn"t help but shiver when the wind blows .
She is on a small hill . Surrounded by darkness, Yuexi couldn"t see the way out . She falls down heavily several times . After she gets up, she couldn"t figure out the direction . And the plants on the side scratch her legs . She staggers, but accidentally misses her steps . So she slips down the slope . Yuexi feels the tearing pain in her back . It seems that she has sprained her calf . Now, she has no strength to stand up at all .
That night, Yuexi feels helplessness and despair . She couldn"t help but cry, thinking that she is going to die . She doesn’t know how long she has been lying there . Yuexi feels dizzy, as if someone were to pierce her head with a needle . And her consciousness is fading away little by little . When she wakes up again, she squints her eyes slightly and sees that the sun is rising, and the rain stops instantly . She curls up the corners of her pale lips, and slowly closes her eyes .
At that moment, she seems to see a shadow of a man in front of her . The man is tall and thin . Without saying a word, he holds her up from the ground . Feeling warmth and the familiar embrace, Yuexi"s murmurs, with the slightest voice, "Li . . . Is that you?" After saying this, she loses all her strength, and slowly closes her eyes again .

Yuexi feels that she has experienced all four seasons in this drowsy sleep . When she slowly opens her eyes, it takes her a long time to get used to the light . She smells the smell of disinfectant, and subconsciously glances around . Is she in a hospital?
When she is wondering why she is in the hospital, she suddenly hears the quarrel outside . She looks suspiciously at the door, gets out of bed, and comes to the door . Yuexi hears the conversation between the two . "I didn"t do it on purpose . You know everyone in this family has to obey Grandfather"s order . I just followed the rules . " Li Ya seems to be explaining something .
"Order? It would be too late, even if only one thing gets exposed . " Li Fengjue"s deep voice can be heard clearly, even through the door crack . "All the things we do is for your own good . Yuexi is just one ordinary woman . She doesn"t deserve you, and she is not allowed to step foot into Li family . Your only option now is to marry Xu Ziqi!" Li Ya bitterly tries to talk some sense into him .
Li Fengjue sneers, and looks at her with no expression on his face . "That"s your wishful thinking . I just want a wife I love . I don"t need a political marriage . " Li Ya cannot believe the words he says . She rolls her eyes, and asks him with the tone of uncertainty, “Do you really fall in love that woman? I don’t think you are in love with her! You treat her the same way as you treat Xu Ziqi . "

As she speaks, her voice becomes sharp, as if she were afraid of losing something . Li Fengjue sneers again, staring closely at her with his eyes, "It is none of your business as regards who love!" "You know, I always treat you . . . " Li Ya eagerly wants to explain .
"My sister-in-law, please know who you are . " Li Fengjue doesn’t want to continue the topic, but Li Ya pulls him back . "Do you still resent me for this? You also know the situation back then . I have no other choice but to do it this way . Fengjue, I . . . " Li Fengjue expressionlessly swats away her hand, and says, "It doesn’t matter now . Please don’t make any appearance in front of my wife . I"m afraid she will misunderstand!"
They stand facing each other . Yuexi frowns, hurriedly runs to the bed, lays down, and quickly closes her eyes to feign falling asleep . It doesn"t take long before the door is pushed open . She hears the heavy footsteps coming from far to near, and notices that someone sits down by the bed . Smelling the familiar scent, Yuexi knows for sure that it is Li Fengjue .
Yuexi planned to wait for his departure, but he doesn"t show the intention of leaving . After a rather long while, she opens her eyes quietly, and suddenly remembers the things that happened last night . She sits up abruptly, sweating . How is Xu Linchen? Is he really dead .
"What"s wrong?" Li Fengjue notices that there is something strange with her . So he steps forward, takes her into her arms, and comforts her softly, “You’re alright . ” Yuexi trembles, holding tightly to his clothes . "Xu Linchen . . . I seem to have killed him by mistake . . . what should I do . . . " "No, he is still alive . " Li Fengjue’s voice is calm .
Yuexi quickly looks up at him, and asks with uncertainty, "Really? I was too anxious at the time, and didn’t go easy on him . Although I didn"t see it clearly, there was blood on my hand . It was his blood . . . ” Gently touching the woman"s head in his arms, Li Fengjue replies with certainty, “You indeed didn’t go easy on him . He was seriously injured and in a coma, so he needed to stay in the hospital for a period of time . But he has woken up and the doctor says that he just needs to rest . That"s it . "
Glancing at Li Fengjue a few times, Yuexi is relieved, and she soothes her chest . Perhaps it is because that she is completely relaxed now, Yuexi feels severe pain in her body, especially pain in her back, ankle, and on her forehead . Li Fengjue glances at her, and explains, "Yesterday you were badly injured . In addition to the pouring rain, complications may occur . Your calf is fractured, and you need to take a good rest . "
"That’s really fortunate for me . " Yuexi sighs quietly . Li Fengjue looks at her in confusion, as if he were looking at a lunatic . She smiles bitterly, and says, "I thought I was going to die . It turns out I just broke my calf . I can live with that . "
