Chapter 1623: He Doesn’t Like Her Anymore
Ling Hui’s fair hand was still on Tang Xi’s firm and muscular chest.
Through the fabric of the shirt, she could clearly feel the firm muscles and scorching temperature underneath.
Tang Xi looked down at Ling Hui, and Ling Hui boldly responded to his gaze.
Her palm-sized face was exceptionally exquisite and charming. At such a close distance, he could clearly see his face reflected in her beautiful eyes.
That gaze was extremely clear and pure, not as cold and indifferent as before. Now, she only had him in her eyes.
Tang Xi frowned slightly.
Because she knew that he was the person who had saved her before, she wanted to repay him?
Tang Xi raised his finger and touched the corner of Ling Hui’s beautiful eyes. A trace of mockery flashed past his bright eyes. “Miss Ling, what do you want to prove?”
His fingers lifted her chin.
Their faces were very close to each other and the man’s breath lingered in front of her. Ling Hui’s heart rate immediately became abnormal.
Ever since she was young, she had seen many young masters from prestigious families. She did not have much concept of a man’s appearance.
After all, she was used to seeing too many good-looking men.
She had seen Tang Xi’s wild and unruly side before. She used to think that he was too fickle and dangerous and was afraid that she would be hurt if she fell for him.
She had never dared to try dating such a man.
However, the Tang Xi in front of her gave her a sense of security.
Perhaps it was because she had read his diary that she always felt that he was only a playboy on the surface, but deep down, he was very loyal and devoted.
Ling Hui raised her red lips. “What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I want to get to know you again because I’m grateful? Don’t worry. If we find that we’re not compatible when we get to know each other again, we can end it anytime!”
Ling Hui’s personality had always been like this. She would try if she had a good impression of him and end it if she did not. She never dragged her feet.
“Miss Ling, I said that I don’t want to be entangled with you anymore. The liking I had for you has disappeared with this car accident.”
A playful smile appeared on Tang Xi’s lips. “Or do you think you wouldn’t mind being a plaything? If that’s the case, I don’t mind!”
Ling Hui looked into Tang Xi’s eyes. “You’re not telling the truth.”
Tang Xi scoffed from the depths of his throat. He suddenly grabbed Ling Hui’s wrist and pressed her against the sofa.
He placed a hand on the top of Ling Hui’s head and looked at her with his charming eyes. “Miss Ling, do you want to prove it like this?” With that said, he lowered his head.
He pressed down on her with a little too much force, not caring at all.
His eyes stared at her indifferently, as if he was really treating a plaything with no dignity.
Ling Hui was pricked by his gaze.
She put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him away.
She stood up from the sofa.
Her mind was in a mess and she did not know how to face Tang Xi who was behaving in this manner.
He did not want to talk to her properly at all.
“I’ll come and fetch you from the hospital tomorrow!” Ling Hui frowned and walked out of the ward.
However, she had just reached the door when Tang Xi grabbed her slender wrist and threw her against the nearest wall.
His tall body leaned toward her.
He raised his eyebrows, a faint smile appearing on his wild and unruly face. “You’re still coming tomorrow? Miss Ling, if you still dare to appear in front of me, I’ll take it that you’re willing to be my toy!”
When he spoke, his handsome face leaned toward her, his strong masculine breath spraying on her skin.
It was very dangerous.
Ling Hui felt a lump in her throat.
Her voice lowered slightly. “Tang Xi, what did I do wrong? Tell me. Please don’t be like this…”
Tang Xi had never seen Ling Hui, who was still willing to talk to him nicely even after her dignity had been hurt.
His heart tightened and his large hand grabbed her shoulders, unconsciously tightening his grip. “If you don’t want to see me like this, don’t appear in front of me in the future!”
Ling Hui opened her mouth, wanting to say something when Luo Di’s voice suddenly came from the door. “Brother Tang Xi.”
Tang Xi let go of Ling Hui and walked over when he saw Luo Di. He pulled her into the ward and brought her to Ling Hui. “Miss Ling, I never lack women around me. If I want, even a girl with a noble status like Luo Di can become my woman.”
The expressions of the two women in the ward changed at the same time.
At this moment, another nurse came over to check Tang Xi’s temperature. Tang Xi smiled at the nurse, who immediately blushed. “Young Master Tang, your smile is poisonous.”
Tang Xi leaned against the door frame, raising his eyebrows devilishly. “What poison?”
“The poppy-like poison.”
“Sister really knows how to talk!”
The nurse’s face turned even redder.
With Luo Di here, the nurse did not dare to say anything. After taking Tang Xi’s temperature, she left hurriedly.
Luo Di found a chance to speak and said with a slightly stiff expression, “Brother Tang Xi, I booked a restaurant. Are you free tonight? Let’s go out for a meal.”
“Sure, but I’ll treat you.”
As the two of them spoke, they completely ignored Ling Hui who was beside them.
Ling Hui lowered her eyes and left first.
…
After Ling Hui exited the hospital, she did not leave.
She sat in front of the hospital for a long time until she saw Luo Di’s car drive out of the parking lot.
Ling Hui hailed a taxi and asked the driver to follow the car in front.
She had never thought that she would one day do something like this.
Ling Hui bit her red lips and felt a lump in her throat.
…
Luo Di’s driver soon found the taxi following them.
Luo Di also noticed it. She looked at the man beside her. “Brother Tang Xi, Ling Hui seems to be following us.”
“Let her be!” Tang Xi’s tall body leaned back against the chair, his handsome face exuding a distance that made people unable to approach him.
Ever since Ling Hui left the ward, Tang Xi retracted the devilish smile on his lips and became deep and silent.
Luo Di could see that he was only putting on an act for Ling Hui but she did not know why he was doing so.
Luo Di did not want to see him unhappy. After reading his diary, she was deeply moved by his deep affection.
Although she liked him a lot, the education she had received since she was young made it impossible for her to be a bad woman who stole someone else’s love.
During this period, she had been observing the progress between him and Ling Hui.
However, to her surprise, he had rejected Ling Hui even after she had come to find him after reading the diary.
“Brother Tang Xi, actually, there’s something I’ve been hiding from you.” Luo Di lowered her long eyelashes and said softly, “After your accident, Fang Ye and I worked together to lie to Ling Hui. We made her think that you died in the accident. I heard from Fang Ye that she was very worried about you before she saw the diary.”
