Chapter 682 - 688: The Eve of the Wedding 4
Where could she have gone in such a short time?
Could it be that she went into the bathroom?
Even as Xing Chen pondered, he didn’t forget to answer Xingtian’s question.
"Yes, I am a bit tired."
Xingtian wasn’t a fool; he clearly heard noise coming from inside the room when he was outside the door.
If he hadn’t misheard, he also heard a woman’s voice in the room.
Nodding, he headed towards another door inside the bedroom.
When he walked into the bathroom, it was still empty, not a single person inside.
Xing Chen quickly followed in, but he also didn’t see Xiangsi’s figure.
Now not only Xingtian, but even Xing Chen found it strange...
Where on earth did this woman go?
Xingtian squinted his old eyes, walked out of the bathroom, circled around the room, glanced thoughtfully at the full-height window, and then spoke, "The elders in the family have been notified. As for the wedding, you need to put more thought into it. Xiangsi cannot be wronged in any way. Since her parents are no longer here, invite her master instead!"
"Yes, I’ll arrange it," Xing Chen nodded. His father’s approval of Xiangsi brought him great joy.
"Rest now." Leaving these words behind, Xingtian headed towards the door.
Xing Chen followed, seeing Xingtian out and closed the door behind him.
This time, he didn’t forget to lock it.
After a click sound, he locked the door and quickly walked back inside.
Without any hesitation, Xing Chen walked to the window and pulled open the floor-to-ceiling curtains.
He saw Ran Xiangsi stiffly stuck to the wall, her wide eyes blinking hazily, clearly having been quite frightened.
Without saying a word, Xing Chen extended his long arms and pulled her entirely into his embrace.
"Has he gone?" Ran Xiangsi gasped, her body somewhat soft, leaning into his arms.
My goodness, her legs were practically scared limp!
"Yes, he has left," Xing Chen nodded, his voice somewhat heavy, "I’m sorry..."
He originally shouldn’t have let her fall into such a situation.
"You should feel sorry," Ran Xiangsi suddenly became serious, pushing Xing Chen away and glaring at him angrily, "Why didn’t you come to find me? Have you... have you fallen for someone else?"
Ever since she got pregnant, Xiangsi felt her emotions were more volatile.
This question had been on her mind for a long time, and she really wanted to ask him.
Xing Chen wasn’t angered by her rather unreasonable question; instead, he smiled.
"Missed me?" His voice was low, incredibly alluring.
"I... I did not!" Ran Xiangsi pouted, angrily denying it.
Was she the only one missing him this much?
Despite her words of denial, Ran Xiangsi’s expression was the best answer.
Xing Chen didn’t mock her further; instead, he gently pulled her into his arms, lightly patting her back, "I missed you, missed you a lot. Not coming to find you was because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to control myself and would harm you and the child..."
Leaning into his embrace, listening to his gentle words, the little bit of bitterness in Ran Xiangsi’s heart dissipated instantly.
Her gaze became somewhat vacant. She lifted her hand to wrap around his waist, sighing softly, "Really...?"
"Yes, really," Xing Chen nodded, his voice filled with countless emotions, "I’m very happy you came."
Without any hesitation, he expressed the words he wanted to say most from his heart.
Yes.
You came to see me.
I’m very happy.
Listening to his words, the happiness in Ran Xiangsi’s eyes grew even stronger.
"I missed you too... missed you so much..."
