Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi

As soon as Xu Qingyan heard this, she froze in confusion. What did he mean?

Didnʼt Tang Jingxuan get hurt because of Song Yanshu?

Song Yanshu lowered her head as her shoulders shook in laughter. She then looked at Tang Jingxuan and said, ”I was only joking. I didnʼt think someone would actually believe me. Did Miss Xu actually think it was true? According to Miss Xuʼs intelligence, she doesnʼt seem like someone who would believe everything that others say.”

”How could you stay by Jingxuanʼs side if you are like this?”

”Thatʼs our business,” Tang Jingxuan replied coldly.

”Donʼt tell me you still havenʼt told her the real reason yet,” Song Yanshu looked at Xu Qingyan in mockery, ”Do you want me to tell her for you?”

”What do you mean?” Xu Qingyan stood up at the mention of her name and looked at Song Yanshu in seriousness.

”What do I mean? What I mean is, the person that actually hurt Tang Jingxuan was your jerk of a father,” Song Yanshu replied. ”Your father stabbed him and injured him, yet Tang Jingxuan still went out to buy you food...What a joke! Tang Jingxuan, it seems you are destined to not be understood by women. Everything you do is pointless.”

Xu Qingyan was dumbfounded by Song Yanshuʼs words.

As she remembered what Tang Jingxuan had said earlier, she suddenly realized what was going on. The person that Tang Jingxuan had said was worth it along - was her!

It was her and not Song Yanshu!

”What? Are you shocked?” Song Yanshu sneered as her voice got colder. ”Xu Qingyan, if you truly cared about Jingxuan, I wouldnʼt have appeared here today. Too bad you donʼt.”

”After the way that youʼve treated your abusive father, donʼt you have any awareness of your own security? If Jingxuan wasnʼt following you and trying to protect you, you would probably be a corpse right now. So, how intimate could your relationship be? To be honest, Iʼm not convinced at all by the two of you. You are simply the same as me in the past. You donʼt care about him at all...” Song Yanshu said to Xu Qingyan as she pointed at Tang Jingxuan. She then turned to look at Tang Jingxuan and said, ”I canʼt see how she is worth anything...”

Xu Qingyan didnʼt know what to say. Although Song Yanshu was cruel, her every word drew blood.

”Are you admitting to it? You and I are the same, neither of us have treated this man well.”

”Thatʼs enough...” Tang Jingxuan yelled in seriousness.

”I know you donʼt want to see me,” Song Yanshu suddenly became emotional, ”But, Tang Jingxuan, you need to be fair. If my competition is an ungrateful brat, then why wonʼt you choose to be with me instead? At least, I now understand you...”

At this moment, Tang Jingxuan decided to maintain his silence. After quite some time, he finally mumbled, ”Everything Iʼve done is of my own freewill.”

”Sometimes, I feel you are quite pitiful. Tang Jingxuan, you really have no luck at finding someone that loves you the way that you love them.” After speaking, Song Yanshu glared at Xu Qingyan, ”I truly hope that you become the next me.” She then turned and left, leaving Tang Jingxuan and Xu Qingyan all alone in an awkward silence.

Xu Qingyan twisted her body towards Tang Jingxuan and asked, ”Why didnʼt you tell me earlier?”

”There wasnʼt much to tell you,” Tang Jingxuan replied with a smile. ”I just so happened to see your father following you that day and I knew you wouldnʼt have the strength to go against him.”

”Then why did you force yourself to go buy me food when you were injured?” Xu Qingyan continued to ask. ”Was it just because I said that I wanted to eat it? Tang Jingxuan, are you crazy?”

”Itʼs not as serious as you think,” Tang Jingxuan replied in seriousness. ”I canʼt change this compassionate habit of mine.”

Xu Qingyan stared at Tang Jingxuan without saying another word. After staring at each other for a while, Xu Qingyan ran out of the room. When she returned, her eyes were red. It was obvious she had been crying.

Tang Jingxuan smiled helplessly, ”Under those circumstances, anyone would have helped out their friend. Itʼs really not much...”

Before Tang Jingxuan finished speaking, Xu Qingyan suddenly pounced forward, wrapped her arm around his waist and placed her head against his chest, ”I donʼt care anymore. Iʼve decided to repay you by giving myself to you.”

After hearing these words, Tang Jingxuan let out a laugh, ”Even if you are willing to give yourself to me, it still depends if I want you or not. I am, after all, a highly eligible bachelor. Plus, Qingyan, I honestly did this out of my own freewill. You donʼt need to do this.”

Xu Qingyan seemed to have predicted this result as she hugged him tighter, ”You are the first and only person that has ever been willing to get hurt for me.”

”Itʼs nothing!”

Nothing!

Xu Qingyan suddenly remembered, ”Show me your wound.”

”When you heard that I got hurt because of Song Yanshu, you never asked to see my wound. What a big difference!” Tang Jingxuan reached out his hands to stop Xu Qingyan.

Xu Qingyan insisted on seeing it, so there was nothing that Tang Jingxuan could do. In the end, he removed his shirt to reveal his bandaged stomach.

As Xu Qingyan looked at the wound, it practically felt like she had been wounded instead as her heart ached.

Tang Jingxuan had got hurt because of her!

It was only right for her to take responsibility for the scar that would be left on his body. It was like a logo or stamp on his body that belonged to her.

So, Xu Qingyan promised to herself that she would never let Tang Jingxuan get hurt because of her ever again.

”Whatʼs with the expression on your face? I donʼt need you to repay me with an extreme sacrifice.”

Xu Qingyan quietly helped Tang Jingxuan put his clothes back on before she stood up straight and asked, ”Whereʼs Xu Zhenqing?”

”He escaped!” Tang Jingxuan replied.

”Iʼm going to kill him if I find him!” Xu Qingyan said as she gritted her teeth. ”Get some rest.”

”Where are you going?” Tang Jingxuan asked as he held her back.

”Iʼm going to go catch the culprit,” Xu Qingyan said before she left the room.

Tang Jingxuan took a deep breath and shook his head helplessly as he pushed himself out of bed. He was injured. Couldnʼt she just let him recover in peace?

When Xu Qingyan said she was going to catch the culprit, she was relying on the fact that she was the chairwoman of Xu Corps and that Xu Zhenqing had a lot minions remaining in the company. Perhaps, through them, she would be able to find some clues.

Of course, she wasnʼt stupid. She couldnʼt directly ask if anyone had seen him. So, she instructed her secretary to install a camera in the meeting room and call the higher-ups and shareholders in for an urgent meeting.

It was simple, she was going to tell the shareholders that the Xu Household hadnʼt actually been changed to her name and she had merely said it out of anger and that she wanted to find her father and reconcile with him by handing the house back to him. She was going to sit back and observe their reactions.

Xu Qingyan may not be able to control her emotions sometimes. But, it didnʼt mean that there was a problem with her intelligence!

Now that she had staked claim on Tang Jingxuan, she was going to find the jerk and seek revenge on him.
