Chapter 823: Please Don’t Push Me Away
Because Ming Ye did not say a word, Diya was extremely afraid. She even vaguely felt that there was only one person in this s.p.a.ce.
Fear swept through Diya’s entire body.
Since this man did not even speak, Diya could only stretch out her hand. She just wanted to test if there was anyone else beside her.
In the darkness, there was still one person here. It was better than her being alone.
Diya’s hand trembled as she searched forward. Soon, she touched a man’s hand.
Compared to Diya’s pet.i.te and small palm, Ming Ye’s palm seemed so wide. There were also thin calluses on his fingertips.
…
Because of some bad memories in the past, Ming Ye never liked to be touched by others.
At this moment, Diya’s action of grabbing his hand directly made Ming Ye subconsciously feel disgusted.
“What are you doing?!”
Ming Ye’s thin lips pursed into a straight line. He violently shook off Diya’s hand and even sternly scolded Diya.
If the lights were still on at this moment, Diya could see that Ming Ye’s gaze was as cold as a knife. It was so cold that it was as if he wanted to kill someone.
Fortunately, there was no light.
Diya was heavily shaken off by Ming Ye. Ming Ye did not have that kind of tender heart. His attack was extremely heavy and Diya was not prepared at all. She almost fell to the ground immediately.
This waiter was actually so fierce to her!
Hearing Ming Ye gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth and berating her, Diya felt extremely wronged in her heart!
She was bullied by the dogs when she was down. It was one thing for her brother and the emperor to be fierce to her, but why would an ordinary waiter dare to look down on her!
It was dark all around. Because no one was talking, it became silent again.
Diya’s vision started to turn black. Her heart was pounding non-stop. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.
In fact, Diya was also a very arrogant person. If it was not for the special situation, would she want to touch that man?!
However, it was too dark and cramped here.
She wanted to find a sense of security.
Tears started to fall from Diya’s eyes. She staggered to her feet and suddenly hugged Ming Ye tightly.
She was really scared.
At this moment, Diya had completely lost her usual arrogance as a young lady. All that was left was helplessness and panic.
Because a long time ago, Diya’s mother had locked Fiennes in a small dark room because Fiennes was disobedient and refused to call her mother.
When Diya was young, she had always been a fan of looks. She liked this brother who was five years older than her and had already begun to look handsome.
Even though those people said that Fiennes was the child of a lowly servant girl and was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, that he was not worthy of her liking and she should not interact with him, Diya still ran to find him and cried in front of her mother to save Fiennes. However, at that time, Fiennes had become a stoic person who could neither cry nor laugh.
When Diya saw that her brother was suffering, she cried for a long time. She was angry and told Fiennes that her mother had locked him up. She also hid in the small dark room to repay him and get him to not ignore her.
Then, Diya locked herself in the dark room. However, within an hour, Diya was so scared that her whole body was trembling.
After that, Fiennes came over personally and carried her back.
From then on, Fiennes, who was a loner, became gentle and polite. He became good at socializing and started to call her mother “Mother” with Diya.
Later on, Fiennes became such an outstanding person and even became the next head of the Siswell family.
Diya had almost forgotten her cold and extremely lonely brother. However, what happened today was just like what happened in her childhood.
Diya hugged Ming Ye tightly.
Like a traveler drowning in the sea, she hugged a piece of driftwood in vain.
“Please… can you not push me away? I’m scared…”
Diya’s nose was sore, and the tears on her face blurred her eyes. Her voice was hoa.r.s.e beyond recognition.
Ming Ye felt something hot flowing down her cheeks and seeping into her clothes.
That was tears —
Ming Ye had never experienced what it felt like to cry.
In fact, he had never cried since he was young.
However, this did not mean that Ming Ye would sympathize with Diya.
“Let go!”
Ming Ye was frustrated by Diya’s crying. He coldly scolded Diya.
Diya choked. Her voice was hoa.r.s.e and soft, like an injured cat. She had lost her usual arrogance, but she could not help but look pitiful.
“I won’t let go… I’m so scared…”
Diya seemed to be extremely scared. She kept repeating how scared she was.
Ming Ye’s long eyebrows were tightly furrowed. A crease appeared between his eyebrows.
This woman was really!
Ming Ye reached out his hand to push Diya away.
However, Diya hugged Ming Ye even tighter. Her whole body rubbed against Ming Ye’s body. She wiped her snot and tears on Ming Ye’s clothes.
Ming Ye was extremely annoyed.
He lowered his hands slightly and even his knuckles were a little pale.
In fact, with Ming Ye’s strength, if Ming Ye really wanted to, he could have pushed Diya away.
However, for some reason today, this woman hugged him like a koala and even wiped her snot and tears on Ming Ye’s clothes.
Ming Ye was extremely frustrated. He felt that he could not even use his strength.
“Are you going to let go or not?”
Ming Ye gritted his teeth.
This man was so fierce…
Diya sniffled. Because she had shed too many tears today, her eyes were extremely painful.
Her throat was very uncomfortable. Diya grabbed Ming Ye’s hand and tears fell on the back of Ming Ye’s hand.
“If you push me away, do you believe that I will continue to hug you up later?”
Diya shouted at Ming Ye, but her voice was indescribably hoa.r.s.e. She sounded extremely pitiful.
As Diya spoke, the tears meandered down drop by drop. They were so hot that it seemed like they would leave a scar on Ming Ye’s hand.
Why was this woman crying non-stop?!
If it weren’t for the fact that he never liked to hit women, Diya would have been thrown out long ago!
Ming Ye was extremely troubled. He glanced at the dim distress device and realized that the distress device had yet to light up. His heart was even more depressed.
The moment the elevator failed, he sent out a distress message.
However, a few minutes had already pa.s.sed, and there was still no reply. This was really…
With Ming Ye’s ability to survive, even if the elevator fell again, his life would not be in danger. However, it was hard to say for the daughter of a rich family like Diya.
…
Seeing that Ming Ye did not move, Diya did not scold herself anymore. She simply rubbed herself against his chest even more shamelessly.
This man did not smell of cigarettes or alcohol. He smelled quite clean and fresh.
The thought suddenly came to her mind. When she came back to her senses, her face suddenly turned red.
“Aren’t you afraid?”
