Chapter 18 Long Chen's Mad
Chapter 18 Long Chen's Mad
"Honey, please don't blame me for going there. You're too desirable, and I can't help it." Long Chen stared at Li Yuechan and gave her a strong hint. He wouldn't have dared to do this if it were the old him. But now, everything was different. His powerful strength gave him great confidence.
It was how men were. Most of the time, strength and confidence were directly proportional.
"You bad, bad boy. Even if I promise to give you that now, you won't be able to move. So, stop boasting." Li Yuechan rolled her eyes.
Hearing this, Long Chen boldly reached out and pulled her into his arms. She yelped in surprise, falling straight into his arms.
"D-don't mess around. You'll make me touch your wound," Li Yuechan said hurriedly.
"It doesn't matter. No matter how painful it is, your sweetness is undeniable." Long Chen chuckled.
"You're so cheesy." Li Yuechan was embarrassed to death.
It was the first time Long Chen had discovered how shy she was. He held her face, drawing his head to her as if he was closing onto a treasure he had found.
Li Yuechan felt warm in her core. She closed her eyes as she waited for the first intimate experience she had had in her life.
Bang, bang, bang.
Just at this critical moment, someone knocked at the door.
"Long Chen, open the door." Li Yuexin's angry voice came.
Both Long Chen and Li Yuechan froze. Then, Li Yuechan got up and reached the door. However, as soon as the door opened, Li Yuexin rushed in with a kitchen knife, aiming at Long Chen.
"Yuexin, what are you doing? Calm your horses." Li Yuechan quickly stopped Li Yuexin.
"Sis, it's him. I called to check. Haoran's in the hospital now. He's still unconscious, and one of his legs' functions is gone. It was Long Chen who did that to him. Today, I..."
"Don't be unreasonable," Li Yuechan said solemnly. "It was Ning Haoran who kidnapped me first. And he used me to threaten Long Chen. He wanted to beat Long Chen up, no, kill. He had gone overboard and even tried to assault me sexually. Long Chen was kind enough not to kill him."
"So you're going to abandon your brother-in-law for a good-for-nothing like him?" Li Yuexin stared at her sister angrily.
Li Yuechan was stunned when she heard that. Why did these words sound so strange? "Yuexin, did you not listen to my words carefully? I said Ning Haoran was the one who went too far," Li Yuechan said in a deep voice.
"I don't care," Li Yuexin shouted. "How can Long Chen's cheap existence compare to my boyfriend's life? You watched my boyfriend get beaten up like that doing nothing. Are you still my sister?"
"Scram," Li Yuechan said, being furious. "Long Chen's my husband. Have you ever thought about my feelings when you're accusing my husband? Get out! With me here, no one can lay a finger on Long Chen."
"You..." It took Li Yuexin aback. She had never seen her sister lose her temper before, and it was the first time.
Li Yuechan was indeed infuriated at that moment. She sensed that Li Yuexin was unreasonable, and Long Chen had encountered too many similar situations over the past year. "Get out." She pushed Li Yuexin.
Li Yuexin didn't dare to argue with Li Yuechan. She glared at Long Chen and said, "Just you wait. You'd better pray that Haoran is fine. Otherwise, you're going to pay a terrible price."
After that, Li Yuexin left the room.
Bang.
Li Yuechan slammed the door shut, her eyes red with anger.
"Honey, it's fine, and you should rest too," Long Chen soothed.
"Aren't you mad at her for being so unreasonable?" Li Yuechan shifted her glare to Long Chen.
Long Chen shrugged and smiled. "What's the point of being angry? Should I fight her? Or yell at her? I'd love to, but she's still your sister."
"You've suffered so much in the past year. I'm sorry." Li Yuechan could deeply understand Long Chen's helplessness.
"Honestly, as long as you don't give me the cold treatment, I'll be fine even if the whole world sneers at me. That's because you're the apple of my eye." Long Chen smiled in relief.
"Long Chen, I didn't expect you to care about me so much. I'm so glad I didn't lose you." Li Yuechan was so touched that tears fell from her eyes. She buried herself in his arms.
Outside, Li Yuexin was bad-mouthing Li Yuechan and Long Chen in front of Li Shiqi and his wife. Both Li Shiqi and his wife were furious.
"Yuechan has gone crazy. It's ridiculous that she's doing this for a piece of trash." Han Min clenched her fists.
"Mom, what should we do now? I don't know how to face Haoran anymore. Do I have to break up with him?" Li Yuexin asked in tears and snot.
"Don't worry." Li Shiqi suggested in a deep voice, "How about this? I'll ask your sister to bring Long Chen to Haoran's ward and apologize to him in person."
"Dad, they won't listen to you." Li Yuexin was probably trying to provoke Li Shiqi.
Li Shiqi immediately stood up and said sternly, "If my words wouldn't work on them, then they can give up their rights to stay under my roof." He immediately dashed to the second floor and knocked on the couple's door.
When Li Yuechan opened the door and saw Li Shiqi, she was a little nervous. "What's wrong, Dad?"
"You. Take Long Chen to the hospital and apologize to Ning Haoran in person," Li Shiqi said sternly.
"Dad, it was Ning Haoran who had bad intentions. He kidnapped me, so why should we apologize to him? He should be apologizing to us," Li Yuechan said with her teeth gritted.
"What do you know?" Li Shiqi angrily asked. "You're a capitalist. How could you make such a low-level mistake? Ning Haoran is a high-profile figure from Jiuyu Real Estate. I even suspect that the owner of Jiuyu Real Estate is his father. He will be of great use to us in the future. It's not good for the Li family to offend such a person. Hurry up and apologize."
"I'm not going to. We're not in the wrong," Li Yuechan said stubbornly.
Slap!
Li Shiqi raised his hand and hit Li Yuechan in the face. A five-fingered red mark instantly appeared on her face. Li Yuechan gritted her teeth with tears in her eyes, but she still stubbornly refused to comply.
"Li Yuechan, you won't even listen to me anymore. Are you trying to rebel?" Li Shiqi's eyes were cold.
Inside the room, Long Chen saw how Li Yuechan got slapped and rushed to the door, shielding her behind him.
"Father, you're forcing Yuechan to apologize to that *sshole just for the sake of your gain in the future. If a gentleman loves money, he gets it the right way. Will you feel comfortable using the money you earn this way?"
"What do you know? You have no right to speak," Li Shiqi shouted.
"You slapped Yuechan just now. I promise you that we will go to the hospital for this." Long Chen's voice was low.
Li Yuechan tilted her head, looking at Long Chen in confusion. Long Chen shot her a look, indicating that she shouldn't worry.
"Then hurry up and go. If you don't make up to Ning Haoran, don't ever come home," Li Shiqi said.
"Yuechan, let's head to the hospital," Long Chen said softly.
"Okay, I'll follow your decisions." Li Yuechan nodded.
"I'll go with you just in case you try to fool our father," Li Yuexin interjected.
"Alright, lead the way," Long Chen said coldly. Li Shiqi slapped Li Yuechan just because of this, making him enraged. Since Li Shiqi and his wife were so protective of Ning Haoran, he didn't mind making Ning Haoran disappear from the world forever.
