Chapter 748: Ou Luoxi, Let Go
She froze on the spot.
“Xiaofu…” Chen Jingyu suddenly appeared from behind.
Xia Xiaofu regained her senses. She turned her gaze back to look at Chen Jingyu, and Chen Jingyu glanced at Ou Luoxi in front of him before he looked at her. He worriedly asked, “Xiaofu, are you okay?”
Xia Xiaofu tugged the corners of her lips and said, “I am fine… Sir, let’s go.”
They brought Little Xuyan into the elevator. Chen Jingyu looked at her pale face and said, “Xiaofu, are you still unable to forget…Ou Luoxi?”
Xia Xiaofu held Little Xuyan’s small, soft hand and quietly said, “I have not thought about it. My life is very peaceful; I feel very satisfied now.”
Chen Jingyu did not say anything else.
…
Ou Luoxi let go of the girl. His large hands were pressed down on the girl’s shoulders as he turned her around, and he cupped her face in both hands, “Xiaofu, did you hear what I said?”
The girl looked at Ou Luoxi’s handsome face, and her legs went soft. Although she knew that he was drunk and had mistaken her for another person, she was touched by his loving confession.
“I…” she stuttered out loud.
Ou Luoxi got closer to her and said, “Xiaofu, have you missed me during all of this?”
The girl: “…”
Ou Luoxi closed his eyes and went closer to the girl’s lips to kiss her.
The girl saw him about to kiss her and was also smitten by him. She closed her eyes silently and waited for his kiss to come.
As he was about to kiss her, Ou Luoxi opened his eyes suddenly, and he forcefully pushed the girl away as he said, “You are not Xiaofu! Who are you?”
“I…” The girl was shocked, and she took a step back.
Ou Luoxi glared at the girl fiercely, and he turned around to leave as he murmured, “Xiaofu, Xiaofu, where are you?”
He did not take the lift but ran down the stairs. When he ran out of the main lobby of the hotel, it had already started to drizzle outside. “Xiaofu…” He rushed out into the rain.
…
Xia Xiaofu brought Little Xuyan back to the condominium unit. After playing for the entire day, Little Xu Yan slept early. Xia Xiaofu took a bath and wore her nightgown as she came out.
She took a dry bath towel in her hand as she dried her hair. She walked over to the side of the window. It was raining outside. She took a breath of fresh air before she looked out at the rain falling outside in the night.
It was already 10 o’clock at night now. It was time to sleep, but she could not fall asleep.
Actually, she did not have much trouble. She also did not think of much; she just could not fall asleep.
Ding, dong! The sound of the doorbell suddenly rang out in the air, and there was someone knocking on the door.
Xia Xiaofu found it weird. It was so late now. Who was it?
Did someone have the wrong address?
She walked over to the main door and looked through the peephole, and right away, she saw Ou Luoxi standing outside. He wore a black shirt, and his entire body was entirely soaked. He lowered his gaze as he pressed one hand against the wall. He was still panting, and the fringe on his forehead was all wet as it drooped down, dripping with rain water.
Did he run over in the heavy rain?
Xia Xiaofu’s irises contracted. What did he come here for?
Ding, dong! The sound of him knocking on the door rang out again, and he was pressing the doorbell hurriedly.
Xia Xiaofu took two steps back, and she still did not know how to face him, so she did not want to open the door.
She turned around and walked into the room.
But at this moment, she heard a soft sound before a gust of cold wind came over. The main door of the condominium unit was open.
Xia Xiaofu turned her head back quickly. She was in disbelief as she looked at the man who was standing outside the door. When did he learn how to pick locks? What was the difference between him…and a thief right now?
Xia Xiaofu was in shock, and Ou Luoxi stepped inside.
He had one of his hands in his pocket, and his entire body was wet as he looked at her. When he had a clear look at the spaghetti strap nightgown that she was wearing, his gaze became extremely hot.
Xia Xiaofu was very clear what that expression in his eyes represented. She had her guard up and took a step back as she said, “Ou Luoxi, what are you doing right now… Woo!”
She only saw her vision blur, and her red lips were already blocked.
…
Ou Luoxi ran down the stairs in a hurry, and the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier; he dashed into the rain once again.
There was no one on the roads. Even if there was anyone around, they had umbrellas in their hands as they rushed home. He walked onto the road, and he suddenly did not know where to go.
He stretched his hand into his pocket and felt his cigarettes and lighter. He took a cigarette out and wanted to light it up, but the rain was too heavy. The lighter was unable to work, and his cigarette was also soaked.
He did not give up and kept pressing the cigarette. The tall man bent his waist down as he was greedy for the taste of nicotine, and he wanted to numb his senses at this moment.
She was right. He was no longer drunk.
He had run in the rain for half an hour just now. He had already woken up from his drunken stupor and was now sober.
He’d merely used his drunken courage to knock on her door and acted just like a thief as he went to open her door. He’d even forcefully kissed her…
He’d done something that he dreamt of doing for these few months.
And the result was?
The result was just as he thought. She pushed him away firmly and looked at him with disgust.
Ou Luoxi threw both the cigarettes and lighter into the rubbish bin. He stretched his hand out to touch his lips. His fingers were trembling, but her taste on his lips was long gone.
The taste that made him long for and miss her.
…
Everything that happened that night was just like a dream, because in the following days, Ou Luoxi did not go to disturb her. Xia Xiaofu was living very peacefully, and she accompanied Little Xuyan to grow up quietly.
One day, a person suddenly went over to the school office. It was Ah Li.
Ah Li placed a document on Xia Xiaofu’s desk before he politely said, “Miss Xia, these are the properties, shares, and assets that our Young Master has gifted you together with some other things. Please go through them.”
