C565 Cold Current
However, Yang Chen was just having fun. He carried Anxin's limp body to the French doors.
As a result, Anxin, who was originally lying on the bed, now stood with her back to Yang Chen and her body pressed against the tempered glass door.
In front of her was a cold touch, and behind her was the man's fiery breath and powerful impact. It made her suddenly turn into a lonely boat in the ocean, unemotionally feeling the surging waves while floating.
Anxin could no longer control her voice and began to cry out for mercy. This kind of excitement was not something that she could bear.
How could Yang Chen stop his attack when he heard begging? Waves after waves of sprinting came from the back, making the little demon Anxin cry like she was complaining. She even made the tempered glass door continuously shake, afraid that it would be pushed down!
The sounds of a man and a woman shouting upstairs reached the three people's ears from the balcony. It was like a thunderbolt out of the blue!
Lin Ruoxi's body froze for a moment as she stood still. Her eyes fixed on Yang Chen's room. Gradually, her body started to shiver. Her legs went soft and she kept taking a step back before she could steady herself.
Her heart, which had just softened a moment ago, felt as if she had taken off her jacket, but was immediately attacked by a cold current. After it was frozen, it was ruthlessly broken!
Lin Ruoxi lost track of where she was as she fell into a trance. She could only hear the sound of something shattering in her ears, shattering her into dust.
So this was how he had "dealt" with Anxin's matter when he had returned home in a hurry. If that was the case, she had made the right choice to not ask him about it.
Lin Ruoxi suddenly felt that it was laughable that she was standing downstairs. She had rushed home more than a day earlier, so she appeared to be so bored.
The sorrow is greater than the death of the heart... It was actually this kind of feeling, or could it be that she simply didn't have anything to mourn, and had always been looking for trouble?
Lin Ruoxi thought numbly as she struggled to stay conscious after a burst of unbearable, temporary tearing pain.
Guo Xuehua, who had been nervous all this time, now turned her head away. She felt even more ashamed to face her daughter-in-law. She was the one who left Anxin behind! Furthermore, she left Anxin in Yang Chen's room!
This kid, how come he doesn't know how to pick the time!? Was it really that hard to endure!?
Nanny Wang's face was also unsightly. When she saw Lin Ruoxi's expression, which seemed as if her soul had left her body, it pierced her heart even more. She wished that she could help Lin Ruoxi bear all the negative emotions!
For the first time, Nanny Wang hated Yang Chen's flowery heart so much. This young master, who had always seemed pretty good to her, had made her strongly dislike him.
For a long time, the sounds from upstairs did not stop.
Guo Xuehua felt that if this went on, the situation would be beyond redemption. Taking a deep breath, she opened her mouth with great difficulty. "Ruoxi, I think …"
"Mom," Lin Ruoxi interrupted Guo Xuehua with a deadpan expression. She said in a calm tone, "I suddenly remember that there's something urgent at work. I'm going to the office. I won't be eating breakfast."
With that, Lin Ruoxi took back her bag from Nanny Wang and turned around to walk towards the parking garage. There was no room for negotiation.
Guo Xuehua didn't have the strength to continue her sentence. In fact, she also knew that it was all in vain.
Lin Ruoxi acted as if nothing had happened. She quietly drove the red Bentley by herself, waved goodbye to Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang, and left the courtyard.
Guo Xuehua raised her head and looked at the clear sky after the rain. Her heart was covered by dark clouds, and she could not help but sigh deeply.
"..."
Yanjing were located in an area near a small hill in the old city region. There was a rather large, plain and unadorned courtyard, as though it had existed for more than a hundred years, but due to the meticulous and ordinary maintenance, the elegant aura it exuded, didn't decrease in the slightest.
In a study in the center of the house, rows and rows of dazzling bookshelves were lit up by lights, illuminating a small area.
An elderly man with dyed black hair and an old military coat was sitting at his desk, holding a photo in his hand. He was staring at the photo with a dazed expression on his face.
The light shone on the old man's gaunt face, illuminating the same old photo.
In the photo, a relatively younger old man was hugging a young boy who had gone to kindergarten. Beside him was a young woman who was laughing happily.
The door to the study was knocked.
"Come in." The old man said and silently placed the photo in a drawer of his desk. His expression also became a bit obscure and hard to describe.
A middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and pants came into the study room with an ugly expression. He respectfully said to the old man, "Father, I have already spoken to my sister and her husband about this matter."
"How is your sister?" the old man asked steadily.
The middle-aged man clenched his fist and said, "The pain of my son's death caused me to faint. When I woke up, I was crying and making a ruckus, begging to see my father. I told my brother-in-law to calm down. Things weren't as simple as they sounded. Whether it's for the investigation and revenge, none of them should interfere. Otherwise, the danger will be even greater. "
The old man nodded, "Yunpeng, what do you think of this matter?"
"Father, I don't know. If we were to look at it from the surface, the one who secretly killed him would be Yang Family, Yang Chen. But if we carefully think about it, what he did wasn't very rational, and the people of Yang Family would not allow Yang Chen to do such a thing. However … There is no evidence that someone else did it. "
The old man squinted his eyes and sighed: "Yang Gongming is an open and upright person. I, Lee Moshen, have worked with him for more than ten years and I have never seen him do anything that he doesn't dare to do.
No matter whether or not his grandson killed my grandson this time, as long as the people from Yang Family don't step out and admit it, I will believe that it wasn't done by that brat from Yang Family. "
Lee Yunpeng's face was full of seriousness, "If it really wasn't Yang Family that did it, then who was the one who insisted on fighting Lu Min? Could it be that he has enmity with our Lee Family? Or do you want to frame Yang Family so that we can misunderstand? "
Lee Moshen snorted, his old eyes were full of light, and said: "No matter the reason, it is all wolf ambition. In the Yanjing, not many families would have the ability to know that kid's true identity and background. Amongst the Four Major Clans, aside from us, the Lee Family s are responsible for both internal and external information, and only our Yang Family s are relatively clear about this due to our special background. Even if he was at the peak of Ning Family, he only knew a little, and Tang Family only did business these few years, so he had no way of knowing.
Some people probably know that our Lee Family is the most capable of doing some things, and want us to use our Lee Family to do them. "
Lee Yunpeng thought about it carefully and speculated, "Could it be Cai Family? Now that Cai Yuncheng had become the general of Chinese Iron Brigade, he knew everything that he should know. But that's not right, Cai Yuncheng seems to have a good relationship with that Yang Chen, and does not have any motives, furthermore, the most important thing for a general of Chinese Iron Brigade is to keep a low profile, don't tell me that he is not afraid of being secretly taken away by Primordial Messenger like when he was the former Lin Zhiguo? "
Hearing the name "Lin Zhiguo", the corner of Lee Moshen's eyes twitched, and said: "Cai Yuncheng is not likely, but Hong Meng, who can take away General Chinese Iron Brigade, is very likely to become a target for some people. Other than us, your father, and me, there are only a handful of people in the entire Yanjing who know this secret. "Who exactly is this resourceful person? He knows that we have a primordial in China and he is also very clear that a primordial will be binding on Yang Chen."
Lee Yunpeng frowned, but he couldn't figure out who did it, so he could only stand there in silence.
Under the light, Lee Moshen closed his eyes and thought for a while. Then, he asked, "Where have Lee Dun been these days?"
After hearing about his son, Lee Yunpeng quickly said, "That brat is on a mission in Vietnam. After killing a few fugitives, he should be able to return to Yanjing in a few days."
"Tell him about his cousin's death when he comes back, in case he feels uneasy," Lee Moshen said, then said: "Prepare the carriage, I'll go to Yang Family."
"Yang Family?" Lee Yunpeng was stunned, he didn't understand what his father meant.
Lee Moshen said, "If you want to go, then go. I want to have a cup of tea with your Uncle Yang."
Only then did Lee Yunpeng quickly turn around and leave the room, but he still felt baffled. His grandson might have been harmed by the people from Yang Family, why was his father still in the mood to go to the Yang Family to drink morning tea?
Yang Chen, who was in Zhong Hai, did not notice the commotion over at Yanjing realm. He was basically too lazy to think about who had caused Lu Min's death.
After staying with Anxin in her own room for more than an hour, thinking that there was someone downstairs waiting for her to eat breakfast, she decided to accept Yun Yu.
After dressing, he walked downstairs with Anxin to the dining room table. Only then did Yang Chen realize that Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang, the two elders, were sitting beside the sofa with unsightly expressions on their faces.
Yang Chen was puzzled, he was still fine just now, but why did it feel like someone stole his house? Even when he and Anxin came downstairs, there was no reaction.
"Mom, what's wrong with you guys?" Yang Chen walked up to them and asked curiously, while Anxin, who was behind him, was also quite confused.
Guo Xuehua turned her head expressionlessly and whispered, "Just now, Ruoxi came back."
"Ruoxi? Isn't she still in Europe? " Yang Chen thought about it carefully as if he did hear the sound of a car leaving his house. It was just that he was having a good time and didn't pay much attention to it.
Anxin, on the other hand, suddenly thought of something. Her charming face paled as a thousand thoughts flashed through her eyes. She clutched the corner of her clothes with her hands, feeling uneasy.
"She said that things in Europe had ended early, so she changed her plane ticket and returned to Zhong Hai. She originally wanted to finish breakfast before going back to work, but she left very quickly when she got home," Guo Xuehua said flatly.
Looking at the expressions of Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang, it was the first time Yang Chen felt so depressed in front of him, as if he was trying his best not to burst it out.
No matter how hard he tried to figure it out, he finally understood what had just happened!
Yang Chen touched his face in annoyance. He really wanted to smash his head against the wall. He had previously told Lin Ruoxi in Paris that he had to go back to Zhong Hai to help Anxin deal with some trouble. But now, when Lin Ruoxi returned to Zhong Hai, she instead found out that Anxin and him had done that thing in her home in the early morning!
Yang Chen felt that if he didn't know what had happened, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself! Moreover, it didn't matter what had caused Anxin to sleep in her own room. In the end, it was not a complete misunderstanding that he had done such a hurtful thing in this house. To Lin Ruoxi, it was indeed a little too cruel.
He had originally been a little irritable towards Lin Ruoxi's icy attitude, but now, it was completely gone. It had turned into an apologetic feeling. He had a headache. How was he going to explain it? Or, was it useless to explain it?
At this moment, Anxin, who was behind them, said softly, "I'm going home. Auntie, Nanny Wang, I'm sorry!"
Anxin's heart skipped a beat. After understanding everything, she was at a loss for words. She wished she could dig a hole and hide in it, especially when she saw Guo Xuehua's cold expression.
Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang didn't keep her here either. To be honest, they were already very forgiving even though they didn't want to say anything unpleasant.
"You can let your family pick you up or take a taxi. Be careful." Yang Chen originally wanted to send Anxin off, but he felt that the situation wasn't too good. He couldn't let Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang be provoked, so he let Anxin go back by herself.
Anxin nodded anxiously and trotted out the door, not daring to stay for even a moment longer.
After Anxin left, Yang Chen stood still for a while before he turned around and returned to the dining table. Without saying anything, he just sat down and started gulping down the porridge and eating the dishes.
Nanny Wang finally couldn't hold it in anymore. Looking at Yang Chen's calm expression, she frowned and said, "Young Master, are you not worried at all?"
Yang Chen swallowed the food in his mouth, sighed, and said with a wry smile, "Anxious, but it's useless. I'll go to the company after eating, and find Ruoxi to explain everything that happened at the beginning. Otherwise, I don't know what to do."
Guo Xuehua shook her head and lamented, "At this point, what can we say? There is nothing to explain anymore."
"At least I can be honest with myself." Yang Chen laughed self-deprecatingly. Although he told Lin Ruoxi a long time ago that he wouldn't give up on another woman, their ambiguous feelings continued to persist.
He didn't know when Lin Ruoxi would completely accept him, but Yang Chen knew that other than confessing everything to Lin Ruoxi, there was no other way to resolve this conflict.
Even if he wasn't seen by Lin Ruoxi today, sooner or later, Lin Ruoxi would see him having sex with other women.
The principle in his bones made Yang Chen not tolerate his woman becoming an underground lover. This was unfair for those women who deeply loved him.
Therefore, it was only Lin Ruoxi who would decide the outcome of the two, and he could only hope to have a clear conscience.
He ate almost all the breakfast on the table like a hungry ghost. It was hard to tell what burden this fellow had.
After eating, Yang Chen wiped his mouth, stood up, waved to Guo Xuehua and her brother and walked out of the house.
