Chapter 465: Shuiling, Say Something
In the Yin family villa, Yin Shuiling lay down on the big bed in the room.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing asked, “Doctor, how is my daughter? When she fell down the stairs, she injured both her forehead and legs. Would that leave a scar behind in the future? Our Shuiling can never have a scar on her body.”
“Madam Yin, Miss Yin’s injury on her forehead is not too serious, but the wound on her right foot is actually quite deep, and it might leave a scar behind.”
“What?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing’s face turned pale. This daughter of hers was the most perfect work that G.o.d had given her, and now, there was going to be a scar left on this piece of art?
“Forget it. Shuiling is already so badly injured, who cares about scars? Who would be able to see the scar left on her feet. Even if it is obvious, we can send her to Korea in the future to take care of it. Technology is so advanced nowadays.” Yin De felt extremely bad as he looked at Yin Shuiling, who was lying down on the bed, and he chided s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing.
Nothing could be done at the current stage. s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing forced a smile on her face as she said, “Doctor, thank you. Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.”
…
After the doctor left, Yin De and s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing sat at the side of the bed as they looked at the girl. The girl’s small face was exquisite and pale. Her forehead was wrapped up with gauze, and she buried herself in the blankets into a tiny bundle, and she looked frail and gentle.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing sighed and said, “What is going on exactly? I actually hoped that Yin Muchen would be able to comprehend all of this, and our Shuiling… Things are good right now. He is free and happy outside, but our Shuiling is in pain…”
“Mum,” Yin Shuiling said. She covered her entire body with the blanket. She just exposed her small head. She buried her small head into the soft pillow as she cried out softly. “Can you not…say bad things about Older Brother?”
“Shuiling, it is not Mum who is saying bad things about Older Brother, but your Older Brother is really heartless. These seven years, he has already completed all of his education in America, but he just doesn’t want to come back to the country. There are many beautiful older sisters surrounding your older brother right now. Does he still remember that he has you as his younger sister?”
Yin Shuiling opened her eyes. Her attractive eyes were full of glistening tears. Her cherry-like lips were pursed, and her frail and weak behaviour made her look pitiful and wronged,.”No, Older Brother would not have forgotten about me, woo woo… It is all your fault. Both of you wouldn’t allow me to contact my older brother…”
Looking at their precious daughter cry like this, s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing felt very bad. It was not that she did not allow her daughter to contact Yin Muchen, but the one that initiated the contact would be the one who would drop in value.
She thought that hiding Shuiling in the villa would be a form of torture towards Yin Muchen, and he could return back to the country more quickly.
But Yin Muchen did not do so. He did not care about any provocation. Shuiling did not contact him, and during this span of six years, he also did not contact Shuilling or ask about her even once.
This Yin Muchen… It was not that he was too cruel, but he was too good at self-control.
Yin De took out his phone from his pocket. He found Yin Muchen’s phone number and placed it on the bed. “Shuiling, this is your older brother’s number. If you want to call him, call him then. Don’t cry anymore. It is not beautiful for a girl to cry. Your older brother also would not like you when you cry. We will be going. Call us if there’s anything you want.”
Yin De and s.h.i.+ Xiaoqing walked out of the room.
…
After the door closed, Yin Shuiling climbed out of the blankets quickly. She used both of her small hands to cup the phone. She cried and laughed as she looked at the string of numbers. Older Brother..
…
She sat on the bed and used her small hand to messily wipe away her tears. She did not want to cry anymore. Daddy just said that Older Brother would not like to see her crying.
She wiped her tears away, and entered in the numbers.
The melodious ringtone rang out, and she had yet to get connected.
The girl sat quietly at the head of the bed. The soft, light-pink blanket covered her abdomen. Her dark and luscious hair covered her small shoulders, and the amber light illuminated her small, attractive face that was merely the size of a palm. Her tiny sharp jaw was covered up with gauze, and it was like a rose that was about to bloom.
Her heart was jumping quickly, just as if it were about to leap out of her chest. She was expectant yet…shy inside her heart, and also…a little afraid. She was at such a young age that she did not know what this feeling meant.
As if her heartbeat did not belong to her anymore.
Older Brother…
Her Older Brother…
At this moment, the call was picked up. Her entire face was bright like the sun on a winter day. She wanted to say, “Older Brother,” but…
“h.e.l.lo, how are you? May I know who is on the line?” A gentle, feminine voice rang out.
Yin Shuiling fell into a daze entirely. She used her small hand to firmly grip her phone. She was in a complete blur as she did not know how to react.
Older Brother’s phone was answered by an older sister…
Daddy and Mummy had said that there were many beautiful older sisters surrounding her older brother, and her older brother had forgotten her.
She did not believe it.
She did not believe it at first.
…
At this moment, in America that was a few thousand miles away, in a luxurious room, there was a sparkling and exquisite crystal chandelier, and a soft, thick, light-grey carpet. The purple agar wood engraved large bed… This was the Presidential Suite in a five star hotel in America. The sparkling French windows had stars sparkling outside it, and standing at this spot was a vantage spot that could see the entire night scenery in America.
An Meng Wen wore a s.e.xy purple spaghetti strap nightgown. She was barefooted as she stepped onto the carpet. Her hair was all let down, and her small beautiful face was crimson red. She was attractive with a touch of laziness.
There was the sound of water running in the washroom. She used one hand to hold the phone, and used another hand to hold a man’s pyjamas as she walked to the washroom. She looked at the phone, feeling puzzled. Why was the person on the other end not saying anything?
“h.e.l.lo, how are you? Can you hear me? Please say something…”
Slap! The door of the shower was pulled open, and a man walked out.
Six years was a long amount of time. Six years’ time had already turned a skinny youth into a man. He had clear, dark, sparkling eyes. He had handsome eyebrows that reached his hair. His tall nose was like the peak of a mountain. There was a s.e.xy arc on his thin, maroon lips, together with his fair and handsome face…
His upper torso was bare. He had water droplets on him as he’d just come out of the shower. Those beads of water rolled down his firm and toned muscles. There was a bath towel wrapped around his waist, and it slid into his perfect Adonis’ belt.
He walked out, and his dark eyes casually scanned the phone in An Meng Wen’s hands. With his deep and mesmerizing voice, it was a little hoa.r.s.e as he asked, “Who called?”
An Meng Wen came forward quickly. “I do not know. After I answered, there was no one saying anything…” She handed the phone over to Yin Muchen before she undid the silk pyjamas in her hands and she placed them on him personally.
Yin Muchen stood there lazily and allowed An Meng Wen to use both of her small hands to help him put on his clothes. He was tall — 6 feett 2 inches. An Meng Wen had to go on her tiptoes to help him dry his hair.
“h.e.l.lo.” He answered the call.
But, there was no sound from the other end. He did not know how much time pa.s.sed, and there was only the sound of breathing. It was very light, and so hurried…
An Meng Wen was helping him dry his hair and suddenly felt that the man’s handsome figure freeze up. She had yet to have any time to ask him. The man’s left hand came over and pushed her far away.
He took two steps forward. Actually, his voice did not change too much, but An Meng Wen felt that he had relaxed his voice. “h.e.l.lo, Shuiling, say something…”
On the other end, the person started to sob loudly. “Wa wa.” He did not know how long she held her tears for. It was just like a river stream in the mountains. The moment she opened her mouth, she was s.h.i.+vering non stop. She sobbed with her small lips as she could not catch her breath. She felt as if she were going to suffocate anytime now.
Yin Muchen closed his dark eyes. He had yet to tighten the belt on his dark blue silk pyjamas. It exposed his sculpted chest. His defined features did not have any changes, but his six pack abs on his chest were moving about as he panted.
“Shuiling, what’s wrong? Be good. Don’t cry. If there is anything wrong, tell Older Brother…”
An Meng Wen stood at a side to look at the man. She had accompanied him for six years now, and it was still her first time seeing him behave like this, coaxing a girl, and being at a complete loss…
“Shuiling, it is Older Brother here. Why did you call me and not say anything… Shuiling, don’t cry. Look at how you are panting because you are sobbing so hard. You will not be able to breathe after a while. Don’t you feel uncomfortable?
“Okay, it is all Older Brother’s fault. Shuiling, say something to Older Brother. It is also okay if Shuiling scolds Older Brother. Older Brother is bad. It is all Older Brother’s fault…”
An Meng Wen heard what he was saying and wanted to laugh. The girl probably did not say anything to him, and he was in a hurry. He was so rough when he coaxed a girl, but it was so…
Gentle.
When he said, “Older Brother is bad”, maybe he did not notice, but when an outsider like her heard it, it was even more cloying compared to the words of romance between lovers.
Yin Muchen coaxed her and used all of his life to coax her. They hadn’t contacted each other for such a long time, and the moment they did, she cried, and the way she cried made his entire heart messed up.
He did not know what to do at all.
Ding, ding. The sound of the busy tone rang out. The girl did not say anything at all, and she hung up.
“Oi, Shuiingl!” He called that number immediately, but there was no answer. That girl was unwilling to pick up his call.
He lifted his hand up and only wanted to throw the phone onto the floor, but after thinking for a moment, he put it away. He used one long leg to kick a chair upside down, and he had a dark expression. His sharp dark eyes went in the direction of An Meng Wen. Slowly, he said, “Why did you have to answer my phone?”
An Meng Wen was extremely shocked. She had never seen him so angry before. “Mu…chen, what’s wrong? I’ve answered your calls in the past. Is that Younger Sister Shuiling? Why can’t I pick up Younger Sister Shuiling’s phone call? Why did Younger Sister Shuiling cry? Could it be because she heard my voice?”
Yin Muchen lifted his handsome eyebrows up. These few years, he thought that self control was the trait that he was most proud of, and losing his control just now was a mistake.
He walked to the side of the bed as he sat down. He stretched his hand out to take the cigarette placed on the bed stand before using the lighter to light it up. He used two fingers on his right hand to hold the fiery spark, and he took two deep puffs and spat them out slowly.
An Meng Wen slowly walked over. She looked at the man’s features. They were just like flowing water. Every stroke was like the most perfect and exquisite drawing inside a comic book.
He was lifting his head up to exhale the smoke at that moment. His undone dark-blue pyjamas made him even more handsome, like a piece of jade. Even though she was together with him for six years, she was still mesmerized with this man’s handsome exterior.
She walked over and bent down. She kneeled down on the soft carpet with both her legs as she rested her head on his thighs.
This man — how could she not love him?
When he came to America for just one or two years, she was attracted to the intelligent aura that he had on him. She recommended him to her father. Her father was a professor in a university, and he was extremely impressed with Yin Muchen.
After that, there was a chance coincidence. Her father was corresponding with an emeritus professor. He was a powerful and mighty professor in the finance world. After he met Yin Muchen, the professor was deeply impressed by him.
The emeritus professor started to bring him into the world of finance. He was just like a dragon. At that time, it was a coincidence that America was in the middle of a financial crisis. He traded in futures and started his career officially.
In five to six years, he was doing better and better in the world of finance. At the same time, more and more wealthy daughters from powerful families gathered around him.
