The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

Chapter 145 Who is she?

Feng Ning knew that he won’t be able to change her mind that’s why he pulled away and covered his face with his hand. "You’re not safe with him."

Xia Meilin furrowed her brows when she noticed the change in his voice.

He sat beside her and let out a heavy sigh as he leans and stared down the ground. He clasps his hands together and rested it on his forehead in a praying position. "He won’t be able to protect you when she comes..."

"What do you mean, Ning-ge? Who’s she?" Xia Meilin asked as she looked at him in confusion. What was he saying? Why did it sound like something big will happen if she comes?

"I’m trying to protect you, Xiao Mei..." He turned to her and held her hands together. "So come with me. Let’s get out of this country. I promise to hide you well and-"

"Wait, wait, wait." Xia Meilin tried pulling her hands away from his hold but she failed when he tightened his hold.

"She will kill you and your son, Xiao Mei. If you won’t leave this place then you’ll put Lu Yifeng in danger too." Feng Ning said seriously. "The person who killed your parents."

"I think you got it all wrong, Ning-ge. My parents died in an accident." Xia Meilin could help but feel nervous, her hands started sweating and the way Feng Ning looked at her made her feel that what he was saying was the truth.

"Was it really an accident? It may look like one but they were both killed by her." He lowered his head, his lips stretched into a thin line. He wasn’t supposed to tell her this but he couldn’t tolerate it anymore when he learned that she was targeting Xia Meilin too.

Her parents were killed? They did not died in a car crash? "How... how can you say that?"

Feng Ning looked at her and stared into her eyes. His eyes filled with fear and sadness at the same time. He looked like he was having a hard time telling her but he has no choice, he needs to let her know if he wanted to keep her safe. "She’s coming with my parents."

In other words, the woman who killed Xia Meilin’s parents were friends with Feng Ning’s parents.

He stared at her tummy. "Think about your children."

"Tell me who is she, Ning-ge? Who’s coming after me?"

"She visited this country a few months ago to check on you..." He heaved out a sigh. "And then, she returned to Paris."

Feng Ning gave her hands a squeeze. "Someone tried to kill you back then, right? That was the time where she visited you..."

Someone tried to kill her? Xia Meilin couldn’t think of a time where someone tried to kill her except for Lu Yifeng’s ex-fiance. It couldn’t be her right?

"Is it Bai Xiu Ying?" Xia Meilin furrowed her brows when she thought of that woman.

"No. It’s not her. Was she the only one who tried to kill you?"

Xia Meilin suddenly remembered something. It was during her first date with her husband, where someone tried to harm him. Wait... could it be that man was really aiming at her?

Feng Ning saw the look on Xia Meilin’s eyes and understood that someone else tried to kill her. "Xiao Mei, I don’t want you to get killed by her."

"Why does she wants to kill me? What wrong did I do?" Xia Meilin couldn’t help but ask.

"You did nothing wrong... it’s because you’re a member of Xia, that’s why."

"If it’s because I’m a Xia, does that means that she’s after everyone in the Xia family?" Xia Meilin asked as she narrowed her eyes.

Feng Ning’s lips were stretched into a thin line as he nodded. The woman was simply after the Xia family.

"No. I will not leave my grandma and grandpa here if she’s also after them." Xia Meilin said firmly. "If she’s coming here to fight with us then we will prepare for that! Does she think she can destroy the Xia family so easily?!"

"Think of your children! Do you want them to be a part of this?! She’ll show no mercy even to your children!"

She pursed her lips as she instinctively placed her arms around her tummy in a protective manner. "You need to leave before she comes."

"But... my grandparents..." Xia Meilin was not going to leave her grandparents.

"Your grandparents can handle themselves. Your grandparents are not ordinary old people, Xiao Mei. It’s you who should be careful. I know that Lu Yifeng will do his best to protect you but if he do that then he won’t be able to protect himself. Do you want to put him in danger? Right now, you’re the most vulnerable of them all, especially because of your situation."

Xia Meilin shook her head as her tears started forming on the side of her eyes. It almost gave her a heart attack when she saw Lu Yifeng bleed in front of her. He got hurt because he protected her and she doesn’t want that to happen again.

"Who’s she? What wrong did the Xia family did to her?"

"She’s a psychopath, Xiao Mei, she will do everything to have her revenge."

Xia Meilin turned to him, "Ning-gege, tell me... who is she?"

Feng Ning lowered his head and clenched his fists tight. He was hesitant if he should tell her or not. But if he did, she will ask for the truth.

"Feng Ning... please tell me."

"It’s your mother, Yong Biqi."

"Wha... What? That... that can’t be... because my mother is Yong Sining..."
