My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

She’d just asked why he must be like this.

He actually did not want to be like that at all.

UUpon seeing Little Xuyan fall, his heart ached so much. It seemed he had an instinctive impulse to protect her, and making these people apologize was already letting them off too easily.

But she had really enraged him. Chen Jingyu had wiped her tears, and she was even in his embrace. This image deeply pricked his eyes.

He was suddenly furious upon thinking back to how she had lied to him about how Little Xuyan was his daughter, yet he did not have the heart to treat Ou Ze’s daughter unkindly. This sort of weakness made him even angrier.

Ou Luoxi stared Xia Xiaofu directly in the eye. “That is exactly what I will do. Why?”

Xia Xiaofu pursed her lips and did not reply.

Just then, Chen Jingyu spoke. “Young Master, it is connivance to shield your subordinates indiscriminately. Besides, you took Little Xuyan away on your own accord without Xiaofu’s knowledge. If we were to pursue this matter, how would you explain your actions?”

Ah Li stepped up and smiled politely. “Chief Chen, you must speak with proof. Did we actually take her away, or was it Little Xuyan who kept running after our car? If Chief Chen plans to ruin our Young Master’s reputation like this, may I suggest that you speak to our lawyer first?”

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

At that moment, Little Xuyan hugged Xia Xiaofu’s neck and whimpered, “Mummy, I want to…go home…”

“Alright.” Xia Xiaofu nodded vigorously. “We will go home right away. Little Xuyan, don’t roam about next time. Mummy was going crazy with worry when I could not find you.”

Chen Jingyu looked down at the mother and daughter and said, “Xiaofu, let’s go.”

“Ok.”

The three of them started to walk away, only to be blocked by Ah Li. “Miss Xia, please stay.”

Xia Xiaofu paused, and Chen Jingyu raised a sharp eyebrow, “What is this? does Young Master Gong Ming wish for us to stay?”

Ou Luoxi let out a bitter laugh. “If you leave now, you will still be back again very soon.”

This was a threat.

Chen Jingyu turned around and was about to speak but was interrupted by Xia Xiaofu. “Sir.” she handed Little Xuyan over to Chen Jingyu and smiled, “Help me carry Little Xuyan while I speak to him. Give me a moment.”

“Alright.” Chen Jingyu nodded.

…

Ah Li brought that parent and the two girls away while Xia Xiaofu followed Ou Luoxi into the President’s office.

“Ou Luoxi, what exactly do you want? Why did you take Little Xuyan away? Don’t you know that she is my life? Nobody is allowed to hurt her,” Xia Xiaofu said agitatedly. Her hands were balled into fists by her side, and her eyes were red.

Ou Luoxi pulled on his lip, his exquisite features as cold as ice. “If she weren’t your life, would I be so idle to bring your daughter all the way here.”

“You! Ou Luoxi, do you…dislike Little Xuyan so much?”

“Hah! The child was created by Ou Ze. Why should I like her? She is a total disgrace to me!”

Xia Xiaofu’s entire body was trembling. It was not his fault that he and Little Xuyan had ended up like this. He had his own grievances, but Little Xuyan was innocent.

“Ou Luoxi.” Xia Xiaofu softened her voice in an extremely humble manner. “Can you not touch Little Xuyan anymore. Don’t you just want revenge on me? What do you want me to do? You will be getting married to Gong Ling soon, and the entire Green Door will then belong to you. Everything will be yours soon. Why can’t you just let me go?”

Ou Luoxi strode to her side, wiping the tears on her cheeks lightly with a curled finger. “I will still say the same thing. As long as you do what you are told, I will not touch your daughter or anyone around you.”

“Do what I am told?” Xia Xiaofu laughed emptily. “Don’t you just want to sleep with me? With your current status, there are plenty of women who would want to get in bed with you, but I…used to be with Ou Ze and have even betrayed you. Why must you…”

Ou Luoxi’s finger was gentle, but his reply was extremely cruel. “It’s simple: compared to you, other women are not as…coquettish.”

Xia Xiaofu forcefully turned her head away in embarrassment.

Ou Luoxi ruthlessly pulled her closer with two fingers under her jaw and lowered his voice, saying into her ear, “Do you really think that you can be with Chen Jingyu? It may be impossible to destroy him, but it will be so easy to create some trouble for him or to cause an accident…”

“Ou Luoxi!” Xia Xiaofu lost control and screamed at him. She could barely recognize the man before her anymore. The old Ou Luoxi would never involve the innocent.

“Why, can’t bear to see that happen? If so, you’d better know your place. Do not force me to make a move on him directly.”

Xia Xiaofu’s hands and feet were ice cold, and she did not dare to move. She stared at the man before her whose face was still as exquisite and perfect as before.

Suddenly, something cold was stuffed into her soft palm. “What?” she asked.

“The key to my villa. You will move there tonight. I happen to be lacking a personal…maid.”

Xia Xiaofu’s heart was numb with pain. “Can I refuse?”

“What do you think?”

…

Xia Xiaofu walked out of the office, and Chen Jingyu approached her with Little Xuyan in his arms. “Xiaofu, are you alright?”

Xia Xiaofu shook her head, her face pale. “I’m alright.”

The pair walked away. Just then, Chen Jingyu’s mobile phone rang. “Hello, Dad,” he said as he picked up the call.

The person on the other end said something which made Chen Jingyu look at Xia Xiaofu. He then softly replied, “Dad, I am busy now. I’m going to hang up.”

Xia Xiaofu took Little Xuyan from him and asked, “Mr. Chen, what did Uncle call you for?”

Chen Jingyu smiled helplessly. “My grandfather has officially retired, so he often goes to find my parents to discuss my marriage. The past two years have been slightly better, but my dad just called me to hurry me home, saying that there is a huge pile of photos for me to choose from for blind dates or whatever.”

Xia Xiaofu had managed to hear some of the contents of the phone call. There cannot be such a coincidence that Ou Luoxi had just threatened her, and now, Chen Jingyu was already forced to go on blinddates.

It seems like Ou Luoxi had influenced the Chen family in some way. She did not think that Ou Luoxi’s power had reached that far. “Sir, you are also not young anymore. Indeed you should find a nice girl, get married, and have children.”

Since they were on this topic, Chen Jingyu decided to come clean. “Xiaofu, I have something to tell you. Although it may seem like I am taking advantage of you in this current situation…”

“Mr. Chen,” Xia Xiaofu interrupted him. “Thank you for your help during this period of time, including today when Little Xuyan went missing. I was scared out of my wits, but thank goodness you appeared in time, I really thank you so much. But it would be better for us to keep our distance in the future. I do not wish for you to have a direct confrontation with Ou Luoxi.”

“Xiaofu, you do not need to fear Ou Luoxi. There is no need for us to be afraid of him…”
