"Aunt, you... calm down... don't worry, I won't tell anyone... let go first, I... it hurts..."
Tang Xinluo thought Song Xiulan was crazy. Although she had heard that there were many sinister things happening between big families, she had never thought that she would encounter them so soon.
"Calm down, okay... I'll calm down a bit then. But remember, don't say anything nonsense. If you dare to say a single word, I'll punish you again!"
Seeing Tang Xinluo's face turned pale with fear, Song Xiulan knew that her threat had worked, so she let go triumphantly.
She muttered disdainfully, "Humph, she's just like that woman before, a useless woman who can't stand being scared at all."
Tang Xinluo didn't notice what she was saying. Once Song Xiulan let her go, she only wanted to go to a crowded place and didn't dare to stay here any longer.
She forced herself to stand up, and immediately felt a tearing pain in her lower abdomen.
Tang Xinluo didn't know why her stomach felt this way. Her legs were barely stable enough to stand, and she could only hold onto the handrail on the outside of the aisle.
She endured the pain and slowly walked to the stairs.
"Xinluo—"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from downstairs.
Tang Xinluo looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lu Yuchen's tall and straight figure appearing down the corridor.
“Yuchen…” The moment he saw Lu Yuchen, his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
Tang Xinluo felt a lump in her throat and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Just when she relaxed, a strong force suddenly hit her back and pushed her down the stairs.
It was Song Xiulan. She actually...
"Xinluo—"
Lu Yuchen watched Tang Xinluo tumbling down the stairs, her thin and petite body bumping against the hard and heavy wooden stairs.
His breathing suddenly stagnated, and Lu Yuchen instinctively stepped forward to stop Tang Xinluo's body from rolling down, but even if he reacted in time, he could only stop her halfway.
"Lu Yuchen..."
At that moment, she thought she was dead.
"Be good, it's okay, I caught you."
Holding the wounded little woman in his arms, even though the rage in his heart had already raged, he still carefully comforted and consoled her.
She had a scratch on her forehead from the stairs, and blood was oozing out from the wound. There were also blood marks on her arms and elbows.
The shocking sight of blood made his heart beat wildly. Lu Yuchen hugged the woman in his arms tightly, watching her originally beautiful face gradually lose its color.
Tang Xinluo's emotions, which had long been extremely tense due to fear and pain, finally erupted at this moment.
"Lu Yuchen, it hurts so much..."
Tears kept flowing down like pearls from a broken string, but even with tears in her eyes and the pain that made her almost speechless, Tang Xinluo's pair of expressive peach blossom eyes still stared at Lu Yuchen without blinking.
There was full of trust in him.
Lu Yuchen gently stroked her face, lowered his head to avoid the wound, and kissed her forehead.
"Don't be afraid, your husband is here, and he won't let anything happen to you."
"..." Unexpectedly, at this time, he still wanted to play such a joke on her.
But what to do
Because of these words, she suddenly felt that the pain in her heart wasn't as severe anymore.
"Hubby..." She shouted as he said this, and stretched out her hand, grabbing the collar of his suit with her last bit of strength, "My stomach... seems to have lost a lot of blood..." (To be continued)
