Adopting/Raising The Male Lead and The Villain

123

Zhong Chi was still in ICU when Xu Yunhui and Xu Yushan rushed there, disheveled.

"Where's Mister? Where's Mister?" Xu Yunhui was pale and she was too weak to stand on her own two feet. Xu Yushan was the one who caught her fall. Even her voice was distorted slightly.

That was pretty good acting.

"You should just wait here..." She was stopped by the bodyguard.

Xu Yushan was infuriated by the action of the bodyguard. None of the Zhong's bodyguards treated her like she was the Miss of the family!

"What's the matter? Why are you trying to stop us? My dad is inside and we are worried!"

The bodyguard was unmoved by her words. "Madam and Miss Yushan, please join Miss and wait over there."

Xu Yushan was a little stunned when she heard that. She couldn't comprehend his words right away. "What did you just say?"

Xu Yunhui's reaction was much faster than her daughter's. Her face changed colors immediately, and she wasn't able to hide that. She turned and looked immediately and saw Zhong Yuhuan who was standing in the hallway.

Slender and tall, she had already grown into an attractive young woman.

Xu Yunhui felt as though a bucket of cold water had been dumped on her.

Xu Yushan blurted out, "Why are you here?"

At the same time, she was suddenly washed over by a pang of envy. Even though she already had a good marriage lined up; even though Zhong Chi was about to die and she would have everything she had ever wanted and Zhong Yuhuan would lose her backing... but Xu Yushan still couldn't help but felt envy toward her.

Zhong Yuhuan looked like a shining pearl by just standing there wordlessly and motionlessly.

She drew both attention and envy.

Zhong Yuhuan gave her she-was-being-ridiculous look and asked, "I shouldn't be here?"

Xu Yunhui pinched Xu Yushan on the back of her hand, which prompted Xu Yushan to control her emotions a little. "No, I was just curious. Aren't you overseas? Why did you come back all of a sudden?"

"Dad asked me to come back."

"That's not possible!" Xu Yushan blurted out.

Xu Yunhui pinched Xu Yushan again angrily.

Xu Yunhui's face changed colors, and she was barely able to contain herself, "Oh, I don't mean much by that. I just felt that your timing was very peculiar..."

Zhong Yuhuan gave her a cold sideways glance, "Oh."

Xu Yushan gritted her teeth. She felt looked down upon. Suddenly, she fell silent. She worried that she would blurt out something that would cause her problems.

As the time Zhong Chi spent in ICU increased, Xu Yushan became more and more manic gradually.

Especially when she could see Zhong Yuhuan's image every time she turned her head. That made her even more manic.

Xu Yunhui was able to contain herself originally, but she had just done some insane things. What if something went wrong now... she wouldn't be able to handle the consequences! So she, too, started to become worried.

Zhong Yuhuan became the calmest of all of them.

***

At a hotel 50 km out.

Inside a black sedan.

Young Master Nan was trapped in between Li Jinyuan and Huo Chengming and wasn't able to go anywhere.

Young Master Nan gritted his teeth in anger.

The two had grown even taller and could easily restrain him.

"We've heard that you are about to get married?" asked Li Jinyuan as he patted Young Master Nan lightly on his shoulder.

Young Master Nan gritted his teeth and refused to talk.

He shall not give in!

Huo Chengming also patted him on his shoulder, "Are you not going to talk?"

Young Master Nan suddenly remembered how he'd looked back in the free combat studio... Young Master Nan shuddered instinctively and said, "No, I am not getting married. Who said I am getting married?"

He was still waiting for Zhong Yuhuan. Thought Young Master Nan to himself as he grinded his teeth.

Especially when these two came specifically to instigate.

He wanted Zhong Yuhuan even more so than before!

Such is love!

Love was not meant to be easy!

He was determined to see it through to the end!

"Is that so? So why did we hear that your family is already preparing for your wedding," said Li Jinyuan as he smiled and patted Young Master Nan on his neck. Young Master Nan felt a prickly feeling on his neck and his entire body froze. He felt difficulty breathing all of a sudden.

Did everyone here practice free combat?

Holy sh*t!

Young Master Nan couldn't help but cuss to himself before he started, "I am not aware of that. It's the truth. I would have resisted!"

Li Jinyuan squinted at him. "Good then."

They were well aware of the type of person Young Master Nan was. He has had a string of girlfriends all this time so it wasn't surprising that he'd turn down his marriage to be able to goof around for longer.
