Chapter 690: Rumours

Xia Xiaofu did not return home for the entire week, and she gave Ou Luoxi a call to explain the situation to him.

That afternoon, Ou Luoxi went upstairs to go to Xia Bo’s room. He took out a sharp knife before he rolled up his sleeves. There were five scars on his wrist, and his arm was badly injured, looking gory and bloody.

He did not have much of an expression on his face, and he used the sharp knife to slit his wrist. He dripped the blood into a small bowl before transferring it into a large bowl.

Xia Xiaofu’s mother’s expression was stiff, and she felt even more awkward. She took the small bowl up and softly said, “Luoxi, go and bandage your wound. I will feed this to your Uncle.”

“Okay.” Ou Luoxi stood up and left.

He returned back to his room and took out medication from the drawer. He applied some medication on his wound before he used white gauze to bandage it tightly, then he rolled his sleeves down.

It was autumn now, and he wore many layers. When he put down his sleeves on purpose to cover the wound up, no one could tell from the outside.

“Woof woof!” Little Fourth dashed into the room.

He sniffed that familiar smell of blood and immediately ran over to Ou Luoxi’s side. “Woof woof!” The fur on has body was all raised. He was barking loudly at Ou Luoxi.

Ou Luoxi stretched his hand out to touch his head. He smiled and gently said “Little Fourth, I am fine.”

“Woof woof!” Little Fourth did not care about him and continued to bark loudly.

Suddenly, the sound of someone knocking on the door rang out. Xia Xiaofu’s mother appeared by the side of the door and said, “Luoxi, let’s eat dinner...”

She had yet to finish her words. “Woof woof!” Little Fourth flew over to come to Xia Xiaofu’s mother’s side. It showed off its sharp teeth and barked loudly at her, and it had a hateful expression on its face as if it were about to pounce on Xia Xiaofu’s mother on the next second.

“Ah!” Xia Xiaofu’s mother was shocked and took a few steps backwards.

“Little Fourth!” Ou Luoxi growled out softly.

Little Fourth was held back, but he still stared at Xia Xiaofu’s mother with an angry gaze. He did not allow Xia Xiaofu’s mother to go inside the room, and he also did not allow Xia Xiaofu’s mother to get near Ou Luoxi at all.

Animals knew how to read humans the best, and Xia Xiaofu’s mother felt embarrassed and awkward as Little Fourth looked at her.

“Aunty, you can go downstairs to eat first. I have already prepared the dishes. I will go down later to eat.” Ou Luoxi spoke.

“Okay, okay. I’m going then.” Xia Xiaofu’s mother turned around and left.

Upon seeing Xia Xiaofu’s mother leave, it was only then that Little Fourth turned around and went into the room. When he was inside the room, he still did not forget to use one leg to close the room door behind him.

“Little Fourth,” Ou Luoxi touched its head and said, “Next time, you are not allowed to growl out like this. She is Xiaofu’s mother; we should respect her.”

“Woof woof!” Little Fourth rolled its eyes, meaning — You deserve to be bullied if you behave just like this!

Ou Luoxi allowed him to sit down by his side and said, “Little Fourth, the Xia family is in a mess right now. We have to allow special treatment for special times. We should be bonded together with them and get through these obstacles, and everything will get better.”

Little Fourth cast his head down and obediently curled up by Ou Luoxi’s legs. He sniffed Ou Luoxi’s injured arm and howled out sadly, “Woo woo.” His heart felt pain.

Ou Luoxi’s exquisite features had a warm satisfaction to them, and he lowered his gaze towards Little Fourth and said, “We will give your Mama a call, okay?”

“Woo woof.” Little Fourth meant — Okay then.

Ou Luoxi took his phone out, and he dialled Xia Xiaofu’s number.

The call was connected very quickly, “Hello, Luoxi...” Xia Xiaofu’s sweet voice rang out from the other end.

Ou Luoxi’s voice became gentle, and the corners of his lips had a gentle arc as he said, “Xiaofu, have you eaten already?”

“Oh, I havent. I’ve been so busy for the past few days. I have just learnt about the company’s projects, and there are so many things that I do not know about. My subordinates are all not helping me, and they are probably waiting to laugh at me. Ay, I am so troubled.”

Ou Luoxi did not know how to comfort her. He was also unable to help with the matters in the company, and he said, “Then you have to take good care of yourself.”

“Yeah, I got it. Luoxi, did you eat already? How is my dad’s health? I have been gone. I would hand my parents over to you then.”

“Okay, you don’t have to worry. I will take good care of them.”

“Luoxi, you really treat me so well.”

Ou Luoxi’s clear dark eyes were sparkling brightly, and the girl’s sweet and coy voice rang out in his ears. As he listened on, his heart became soft.

“Xiaofu...”

I missed you.

I missed you so so much.

He has not seen her for an entire week already.

It was a pity that he could not say these words, and Xia Xiaofu hurriedly said, “Luoxi, someone came over to my office. We will just end it here, and we will chat when I have time.”

Ou Luoxi wanted to continue speaking, but he heard ding. Xia Xiaofu hung up already.

Ou Luoxi looked at the phone in his hand, and he smiled both frustratedly and lovingly.

Little Fourth rolled its eyes at him again — Silly.

Ou Luoxi stood up slowly and said, “Little Fourth, let’s go. Let’s go to the market to buy groceries. Your Mama is very busy. Let’s make some soup and send it over to her so she can nourish her body.”

...

Ou Luoxi brought Little Fourth along with him to the Xia Corporation at night. He did not dare to come over during daytime and was afraid that he would disturb her, so he had no other choice but to come over at night.

He went over to the office, and the security officers in the company stopped him and said, “Ay, who are you? This is Xia Corporation. This is a place to work, and you cannot go in as you please.”

Ou Luoxi was polite as he said, “How are you? I am here to look for Xia Xiaofu. I would need to trouble you to inform her.”

“You are looking for our Director Xia? Do you have an appointment?”

Ou Luoxi shook his head and said, “No.”

“Then you cannot go inside, our Director Xia is not someone whom anyone can meet when they want to.”

Ou Luoxi noticed that his attitude was firm, and he had no other choice but to take his phone out of his pocket, he originally wanted to give her a surprise, and now he had no other choice but to give her a call.

He lowered his gaze to dial her number, and at this moment, “Woof woof!” His trousers were bitten by Little Fourth.

Ou Luoxi followed the direction that Little Fourth was looking in. He saw a luxury vehicle driving outside the main doors of Xia Corporation. Someone opened the back door, and Xia Xiaofu was sitting inside the car.

The car started the engine, and Ou Luoxi looked into the half open window. Other than Xia Xiaofu, who was in the backseat, there was another person there. It was Ou Ze.

Ou Luoxi froze.

“Woof woof!” Little Fourth was already chasing after the car.

“Little Fourth!” Ou Luoxi quickly chased after him.

The luxury vehicle stopped in front of the Xia Corporation Hotel. Ou Ze came out of the car, and he was extremely gentlemanly as he opened the car door for Xia Xiaofu. Because Xia Xiaofu’s back was facing him, Ou Luoxi could not see the expression on her face, but he saw her going into the main lobby of the hotel after Ou Ze.

Ou Luoxi stood on the spot, and he took a thermos container in his hand. He was in a blur.

He did not think that Xia Xiaofu would be together with Ou Ze...

She had not brought it up with him.

But he trusted her. She did not like Ou Ze, and she only liked him.

Ou Luoxi walked into the main lobby of the hotel.

...

He went over to the reception desk, and there were two beautiful and young ladies behind the reception. Ou Luoxi said, “How are you? Can I know which room Xia Xiaofu is in? I am looking for her.”

A young lady looked at Ou Luoxi for a moment. She smiled and said, “How are you? Sir, are you looking for our Director Xia? I am so sorry, this is the private resting area of our Director Xia. She cannot be disturbed. If you are our Director Xia’s friend, then you can give her a call.”

Ou Luoxi lowered his gaze before handing the thermos container over and said, “I will not disturb her. Can I trouble you all to give this to her?”

The young lady hesitated for a moment and stretched her hand out to take the thermos as she said, “Okay.”

“Thank you.” Ou Luoxi turned around and left.

Ou Luoxi brought Little Fourth as he left the hotel lobby, but he did not leave immediately. He stood outside the main doors, and his listening abilities were very good. He could hear the two young ladies speaking behind the reception desk —

“Ay, Xiao Mei, that person just now seemed to be Ou Luoxi, but he’s changed so much. I do not dare to recognize him anymore.”

“That’s right, he is Ou Luoxi, but he has already been away from the entertainment industry for three years. He has long lost his popularity. Thinking about those days when he was in the prime of his popularity, no matter where he went, he had the glow of the main lead, and had charmed so many young girls, but look at him right now. His right leg is disabled now, and it is really such a pity.”

“Then are we going to hand this thermos container over to Director Xia?”

“Throw it away.”

“Ah?”

“What are you exclaiming for? Just now, Director Xia went inside with President Ou and ordered a candlelight dinner. It is obvious that she wants to enjoy it together with President Ou. Would Director Xia care about this thermos container?”

“That makes sense. Xiao Mei, do you think our Director Xia and President Ou...”

“They probably are. This time, Director Xia met with so many troubles and obstacles in the company, and it is due to President Ou supporting her from behind. I heard that for two weeks, both of them were stuck on one another in the office. Diretor Xia just took over the matters in the company, so President Ou is coaching her step by step.” As she spoke, that person lowered her volume and said, “Our Director Xia is sharing a room with President Ou.”

“Oh my gosh. What is Ou Luoxi going to do then? Didn’t they say that Director Xia likes Ou Luoxi?”

“Ay, couples are together in good times but separate during bad times. Ou Luoxi looks so handsome and attractive, and of course our Director Xia would like him, but it is just that the Xia family has gotten into too much trouble. Ou Luoxi is unable to help out at all, and President Ou is the one who is so busy helping out. Women all have pride and also want to find someone that they can rely on. Our Director Xia would obviously lean towards President Ou.”...

Ou Luoxi did not hear what they said after that, and he lifted his heels to leave.

Little Fourth looked at his Daddy’s back profile. “Woo woo” He was listless as he wagged his tail and trailed behind Ou Luoxi.

...

Ou Luoxi was behaving just like normal. He stayed inside the villa to use his best efforts to take care of Xia Bo and Xia Xiaofu’s mother. Every afternoon, he would release his blood to save Xia Bo. Xia Bo’s drug addiction did not come again, but it also did not become like what Xia Xiaofu’s mother said. His blood was just medicine, and Xia Bo would get better after taking it for a few days. On the contrary, after one and a half months went by, Xia Bo was strongly reliant on his blood. He changed from taking half a large bowl to one and half bowls of blood.

Ou Luoxi started to lose weight, and his face was extremely deathly pale. He also felt the changes in his body, and his abnormal listening and running skills were all deteriorating quickly.

But he was still as beautiful as before. He was the youth who seemed to walk out of a painting, and now, he looked even more pure and weak.

In this half month, Xia Xiaofu did not come back home. Both of them would call one another, on the phone Xia XIaofu would still complain about work matters to Ou Luoxi, and Ou Luoxi was quiet and patient as he listened to her and comforted her occasionally.

Ou Luoxi stood on the balcony inside the room, and he suddenly heard melodious music. There was merry chatter in the distance.

Ou Luoxi went downstairs and opened the main door of the villa, and he followed the source of the music as he went over.

There was a church in front of him. Ou Luoxi stood outside the fence as he looked inside. There were pure white and blurry lights that were placed in the corridor of the church, and there was a wedding going on.

A bride wearing a wedding dress held onto the groom’s elbow as they stood before the pastor. The pastor asked them some questions, and the bride and groom were sweet as they looked at one another before saying, “Yes, I do.”

After that, with all their friends and relatives looking on as they cheered. The groom slowly lifted the veil that the bride was wearing up before kissing her.

Ou Luoxi stood outside as he looked at them quietly. His irises were all full of this romantic wedding that was filled with fresh flowers and also those sincere well wishes and cheers.

He suddenly became jealous.

He was almost crazy with jealousy.

He also wanted to have a wedding, and he also wanted a woman to tell him, “Yes, I do.”

At this moment, a large gust of wind blew over. He did not know where a pure white veil that flew over and floated to come before his eyes.

Ou Luoxi stretched his hand out, and grabbed the veil in front of him.

His eyes became excited. If...if Xia Xiaofu was willing to put on this white veil, she would be very very beautiful.

She would be the most beautiful bride on earth.

Ou Luoxi flew towards the Xia Corporation.

...

Ou Luoxi was among the crowd as they went into the main lobby of the hotel. All of the Presidential Suites in this hotel were on the 24th floor, and he went over to the 24th floor.

He walked along the corridor, and Ou Luoxi searched for Xia Xiaofu’s room. He was considering whether or not to give her a call.

At this moment, a door opened up in the distance. A familiar figure came out of the room; it was Ou Ze.

Ou Ze wore a black sweater, and he took his suit jacket in his hand. There was a satisfied smile on his face as he left.

Ou Luoxi froze for a moment, before he lifted his heels and went into the room.

There was the sound of water flowing down in the room, and Xia Xiaofu was probably taking a shower.

Ou Luoxi headed towards the bed, and there was a rubbish bin placed by the side of the bed. The black rubbish bin had a few bundles of paper together...with a used condom.

Ou Luoxi lowered his gaze to look at the condom, and he felt like there was a sharp knife stabbing his heart. It made his entire heart hurt.

His heart never hurt like this before.

Click. Suddenly, the door of the bathroom opened. Xia Xiaofu wore a silk nightgown as she walked out.

Xia Xiaofu saw Ou Luoxi, and she froze before running forward quickly. She was surprised as she said, “Luoxi, why are you here? Why didn’t you give me a call before you came? You gave me a shock.”

Ou Luoxi slowly turned his gaze over to look at her. His eyes were a little red, and he curled the corners of his lips up into a small smile as he softly asked her, “Why, is this not convenient right now?”

“No, I just came back from the office. I am preparing to go to bed after showering.”

“Are you alone in this room?”

“Yeah...” It was only then that Xia Xiaofu realized that Ou Luoxi’s tone was weird, and she glanced at him from head to toe twice before she said, “Luoxi, what’s wrong? Your question is so weird. If I were not alone, would I be staying together with another person?”

Ou Luoxi looked at her and did not say anything.

Xia Xiaofu stepped forward, and she stretched her hand out to hold Ou Luoxi’s hand as she said, “Luoxi, why is your hand so cold? Your face looks so pale. Have you been tired recently?”

Xia Xiaofu felt bad as she raised her eyebrows and used her small hands to cup his handsome face.

Ou Luoxi looked at the small egg-shaped face in front of him and closed his beautiful eyes. He stretched his arms out to hug her soft waist before pulling her into his embrace.
