Brother Hu looked at Xia Yu, then at the crying child, with a hint of hesitation between his brows, "Let them be in the same room."
Then the two of them were taken to the room on the second floor, and the door was slammed shut, making Xia Yu's heart tremble. The entire brain stopped thinking and went blank.
"Auntie, aren't we going home? I want to go home." Cheng Xi said while crying, her black and white eyes full of tears.
"We can't go back, we can't go back." Xia Yu said absentmindedly.
The night passed very long, but Xia Yu hoped that it would pass more slowly and that the dawn would not come. The child had already fallen asleep, lying in her arms, with tears on his little face. Xia Yu lowered her head and kissed his forehead, murmuring: "Cheng Xi, Auntie will not let him hurt you even if she fights to her death. "
The sky outside gradually became brighter, and the sunlight poured into the room, but it could not illuminate Xia Yu's heart that had sunk to the bottom of the valley.
The door opened with a click, and the person outside the door came in, looked at the man opposite, met his eyes, and his body trembled.
"Good morning, Xia Yu!" The corners of his mouth slowly raised into a smile that sent chills down the spine.
Xia Yu reached out and touched the child's face, then got out of bed, walked to Chen Wenxuan, knelt down, hugged his legs, and begged with tears: "Wenxuan, I know I was wrong. I will never do it again." I won’t run away. I swear to God. If you run away again, you can beat me or scold me. I just ask you not to hurt the child.”
As Xia Yu stretched out her hand and swore a poisonous oath, Chen Wenxuan didn't say a word during the entire process. He looked at Xia Yu expressionlessly, without even changing his eyes, which were cold and gloomy.
"Xia Yu, I am devoted to you, but I didn't expect you to drug me," Chen Wenxuan sneered.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Xia Yu said in a trembling voice, and the fingers holding his pants turned white.
He stretched out his hand and pinched Xia Yu's chin hard. His pale face was twisted ferociously, like a man-eating demon, "Xia Yu, don't even think about escaping, otherwise, you will suffer the consequences."
Xia Yu's body was shaking like chaff. This man was so terrifying!
At this time, Cheng Xi's voice called me from the bed, and Xia Yu shouted anxiously: "Stay in bed, don't come down."
"Haha!" Chen Wenxuan suddenly chuckled twice, moved his eyes from Xia Yu's face to the bed, and said extremely coldly: "Xia Yu, do you really think I told you before to throw this little bastard into the sea? Just to scare you?"
"No, don't hurt the child. I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Just give me another chance. Just once. I will listen to you and never run away or disobey you." Xia Yu She begged him desperately, her voice shaking and losing tone.
"Auntie, don't cry, don't cry." Cheng Xi got off the bed and came to Xia Yu's side. He wiped the tears from her corners with his little hands. His eyes slowly turned red, and he looked at her with a worried look.
"Xia Yu, I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. I'm really disappointed in you. Take this little bastard out and throw him into the sea." Extremely cruel words came out of Chen Wenxuan's mouth.
Hearing that last sentence, Xia Yu almost fainted, hugged Cheng Xi, and shouted in a broken voice: "No, absolutely not."
Two people came in with hesitation on their faces. They looked at Xia Yu and then at Chen Wenxuan.
"Take them out." Chen Wenxuan yelled at the two of them.
After this roar, the two of them moved. Xia Yu hugged the child tightly and looked at them hatefully. The child also hugged Xia Yu's neck tightly, crying and screaming, with a look of fear in his eyes.
No matter how tight Xia Yu hugged her, she was still no stronger than two grown men, and her fingers felt like they were about to break. When one of them took Cheng Xi away, he felt a fishy-sweet taste in his mouth and his tongue was bitten.
As soon as he opened his mouth, blood flowed out of his mouth. Xia Yu's eyes were red, and he looked at Chen Wenxuan in front of him and said word by word: "Chen Wenxuan, if you dare to touch Cheng Xi, I will die for you. You will have to do anything." Not even ”
Cheng Xi's cries hit Xia Yu's heart like a heavy hammer, causing heart-breaking pain and heart-breaking pain. Xia Yu didn't know if Chen Wenxuan would compromise, but at this point, she could only take a gamble.
Time passed by, and Cheng Xi's crying could not be heard very clearly. She should have been taken out of the villa. Her heart felt like it had stopped beating. The tip of her tongue was bitten by Xia Yu again. Xia Yu looked in front of her stubbornly. man.
"Go and bring that little bastard back." Chen Wenxuan said to the two at the door, then looked at Xia Yu and said, "Xia Yu, remember, there will be no next time."
"I know, it will never happen again." Feeling like she was alive again, Xia Yu responded repeatedly.
Cheng Xi was brought back, Xia Yu held him in her arms, gently stroked his head with her hand, and said softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid, Auntie is by your side."
The child was so frightened that he kept crying no matter how much he was coaxed. His face was pale and his eyes were swollen from crying.
Brother Hu had been watching with cold eyes. After Chen Wenxuan left, he came to Xia Yu specifically and stared at her for a while before saying, "Miss Xia, how did you do that?"
"What?" Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant.
"I mean, how did you poison Chen Wenxuan alone, and all of us were fine." Brother Hu thought about it all night and couldn't figure it out. This is so amazing.
The eyes that looked at Xia Yu were full of admiration.
Xia Yu smiled bitterly. She had done a good job, but she still couldn't escape Chen Wenxuan's clutches, right? At this time, Cheng Xi cried even harder.
Brother Hu was so noisy by the child's cries that he had a headache. He didn't continue to ask questions and turned around to go out. When I left, I asked the two people guarding the door to withdraw.
On this isolated island, where can a woman go with a child? Are you using it so strictly
But since that morning when Chen Wenxuan said he would throw Cheng Xi into the sea, the child became ill and had an intermittent fever. He was frightened.
"Cheng Xi, be good and take the medicine."
When the little guy saw the medicine in Xia Yu's hand, his little face wrinkled up and he said, "Auntie, it's so painful." His voice was weak.
"You can get better after taking medicine, be good." Looking at the child who had lost weight in front of him, Xia Yu's eyes turned sour. If Wanru saw this, he wouldn't know how distressed he would be.
After taking the medicine, the little guy fell asleep soon. Xia Yu would take his temperature every hour to see if the fever had gone down. He did not sleep peacefully and always woke up. Every time he woke up, he would look for Xia Yu anxiously. Only when he saw her there would he continue to sleep peacefully.
Xia Yu knew that he was upset, but he didn't cry. Sometimes when she saw Xia Yu crying out of worry, she told her not to cry. During this time, Chen Wenxuan came over once, and Cheng Xi burst into tears and screamed when she saw him.
Chen Wenxuan was angry and wanted to teach the child a lesson, but Brother Hu pulled him out, "The child is sick. You don't want to be like a child, right?"
"Is this a child? This is a living ancestor." Xia Yu accompanied this kid every day, and Chen Wenxuan was annoyed to death.
"That's true. Now you will raise him as your ancestor. Don't forget what Xia Yu said. If something happens to the child, she will not be alive." Brother Hu patted Chen Wenxuan on the shoulder and told him to take care of the money. In terms of scoring, there is a fire left.
Another day passed, and the child's fever had not gone away and he started coughing again.
"Wenxuan, can you please call a doctor? The child's condition has worsened, and medicine is no longer useful." Xia Yu knocked on the door of Chen Wenxuan's room and said to the people inside, with caution and pleading in her tone.
Chen Wenxuan glanced at Xia Yu lightly and said, "A fishing boat with supplies will arrive in two days, and I will ask them to bring a doctor.
My heart sank. In two days, the child's condition might become more serious. Xia Yu opened her mouth, and after catching a glimpse of the coldness in Chen Wenxuan's eyes, she finally swallowed the words in her mouth.
When he was about to leave the room, Chen Wenxuan called Xia Yu, "Come here."
Xia Yu immediately walked over without showing any reluctance on her face. Chen Wenxuan pulled Xia Yu into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, looking at her deeply.
After the kiss ended, Chen Wenxuan touched Xia Yu's face with his hand, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "So good."
Xia Yu turned around and planned to leave.
"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you." Chen Wenxuan's voice sounded from behind Xia Yu.
"What?" Xia Yu looked back at Chen Wenxuan.
Chen Wenxuan pondered for a while and said, "You know the expenses here are high. The money I have may only be enough for two months..."
Having said this, Chen Wenxuan paused for a while and looked at Xia Yu.
Xia Yu hurriedly said, "I can write a check and you can have someone cash it."
"Then let's do this for now." Chen Wenxuan was quite satisfied with Xia Yu's answer and found no fault with it.
Seeing that Chen Wenxuan had nothing to say, Xia Yu came out of his room and immediately walked quickly to the bathroom.
"Vomit!" He vomited out all the porridge he had eaten in the morning. He stopped vomiting after there was nothing in his stomach. Xia Yu sat on the ground for a long time. She vaguely heard Cheng Xi calling her, then she stood up, rinsed her mouth in a hurry, and left the bathroom.
When I walked in, I saw that he had already sat up from the bed. After seeing Xia Yu, the fear in his eyes disappeared. His mouth flattened with a look of grievance, and he stretched out his two small arms for Xia Yu to hug him.
"Auntie, I want to go to the beach to pick up shells." He leaned his head on Xia Yu's shoulder, his voice was hoarse, and he coughed a few times.
Putting her hand on his back and stroking it, Xia Yu coaxed him softly and said, "Wait until you recover, can you go pick up shells again?"
After a while, he hummed, and Xia Yu carried him to the balcony to breathe some fresh air. He kept looking in the direction of the beach, his eyes full of longing.
Xia Yu anxiously waited for the arrival of the fishing supply boat, but a typhoon came that night. Listening to the sound of waves and wind outside, her heart was on fire and she couldn't sleep all night. When it was almost dawn, Xia Yu came to the balcony. The wind was much lighter than before, but the waves looked still big, and she didn't know if the supply fishing boat would come.
Cheng Xi has become more and more serious in the past two days. He coughs in the morning and evening, and has recurring fever. Xia Yu has hardly closed his eyes in the past two days.
