Chapter 1783: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (26)
Xiao Ying knew about Lou Lan.
She deserved it and was not worthy of sympathy.
If she had not done anything illegal, no one would have been able to get evidence to report her.
Liu Yiyi could only stay in jail for the rest of her life, while Lou Lan would probably stay in jail for more than ten years.
The Lou family was no longer part of the four noble families. Even if they wanted to save Lou Lan, they were powerless.
Mother Lou blamed everything on Xiao Ying for the change in the Lou family.
That day, Xiao Ying got off work and headed to the underground parking lot.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out with a white glass bottle in his hand.
“Sister Ying, be careful!” Seeing this, Xiao Mai, who had walked out of the elevator, rushed over quickly.
Xiao Ying reacted quickly as well. The moment the woman opened the lid, she pulled Xiao Mai over to hide behind a car.
“Long Ying, come out!” Mother Lou shouted like a shrew.
“Maimai, don’t move. I’ll go out and distract her!” At work, Xiao Ying did not want to be treated specially, so she did not bring any bodyguards.
Xiao Mai grabbed Xiao Ying’s hand. “Sister Ying, you have to be careful.”
Xiao Ying nodded. She walked around the car and went behind Mrs Lou.
Seizing the opportunity, she kicked Mrs Lou’s wrist that was holding the glass bottle.
The glass bottle fell out of her hands onto the ground. An unpleasant smell hit her nose.
It was sulfuric acid.
Xiao Ying immediately called the police.
After Mother Lou was taken away, Xiao Mai scanned Xiao Ying up and down and held her hand nervously. “Sister Ying, are you okay?”
Xiao Ying shook her head. “I’m fine.” Xiao Ying really liked the quiet and kind Xiao Mai.
“Maimai, it’s been a while since you found out about your identity. Do you want to go back to the Duke’s palace with me tonight? Maybe you’ll remember some things from when you were young?”
After a moment of silence, Xiao Mai nodded.
Xiao Ying brought Xiao Mai to the Duke’s palace.
From the moment she entered, Xiao Mai felt a sense of familiarity.
As she entered the living room, she did not even need Xiao Ying to bring her around. She knew where the back garden and swing were.
“Sister Ying, I think I sat here when I was young. Mommy pushed me and I giggled.”
Xiao Mai went to another place. “Were there flowers here? I think I caught butterflies here.”
When the Duke found out that Xiao Ying had brought Xiao Mai over, he went to the back garden. When he heard Xiao Mai’s words, his eyes filled with tears.
The place that Xiao Mai had mentioned had indeed housed large flowers in the past. Because Xiao Mai had liked flowers and butterflies since she was young, the Duke and his wife had planted them for her.
After Xiao Mai went missing, the Duke was afraid that his wife would be hurt by the scene, so he shoveled the garden away!
When Xiao Mai saw the Duke, she lowered her head and ran away.
The Duke looked sad and disappointed when he saw that Xiao Mai had not taken to him.
Xiao Ying walked over and said, “Maimai still needs time.”
Because he had been too protective of Liu Yiyi and had hurt her, the Duke felt extremely guilty toward Xiao Ying.
At the same time, he was very grateful to her. If not for her, his wife might have become a mental patient and his daughter would have been replaced by an imposter.
The Duke was regretful and hateful.
“Ying’er, I’m sorry. I’ll do my best to make it up to you in the future.”
What Xiao Ying could not accept the most was that the Duke used her identity to threaten Long Ming to let Liu Yiyi go after the latter pushed the old lady into the water!
She did not hate him, but it was impossible for her to not have any grudges against him.
“You don’t have to make it up to me. You just have to be good to Madam and Xiao Mai in the future.”
With that said, Xiao Ying left.
The Duke looked at Xiao Ying’s back and sighed.
…
Back in the palace, Xiao Ying called Long Mei and started to pack her luggage.
Long Ming returned after ten at night. Pushing open the bedroom door, he saw a box inside and glanced at the woman sleeping on the bed.
Xiao Ying was in a daze when she suddenly felt a pain on her cheek. She opened her eyes and looked at the man who was lying beside her and pinching her face. She said sleepily, “What are you doing?”
Long Ming carried the woman and pointed at the suitcase at the end of the bed. “Where are you going after packing your things?”
Xiao Ying hummed hoarsely. “Can I not say it?”
“No.” After Liu Yiyi and Lou Lan had been imprisoned, they should have started a sweet life. However, she had been acting mysteriously for the past two weeks and he could not understand her.
“I’m going to look for Mei’er tomorrow.”
“Why are you looking for her?”
“It’s a secret between women!” Looking at his cold and fierce face, she knew that he was clearly unhappy. In order to coax him, she hugged his neck and kissed his handsome face. “I’m flying tomorrow morning. I’m really sleepy. I’m going to sleep.”
The woman fell asleep immediately. Long Ming looked at her sleeping face and felt angry, but he could not bear to wake her up.
…
The next day.
When Long Ming woke up, the woman had already left.
She had left him a note saying that she had gone to look for Mei’er and would be back in two days.
Long Ming felt that something was wrong.
They had agreed to be honest with each other but this woman had to be hiding something from him.
Long Ming called Xiao Ying but could not get through. She must have gotten on the plane.
Half an hour later, Long Ming arrived at the meeting room for a meeting.
After the meeting, Long Ming returned to his office. Mo Tian knocked and came in, saying to him, “Your Majesty, Lou Lan wants to meet you.”
Long Ming narrowed his hawk-like eyes, his expression cold. “No.”
When Lou Lan found out that Long Ming was unwilling to see her, she almost broke down.
Although no one could confirm that Long Ming had arranged for her mysterious boyfriend, Lou Lan knew that he was definitely involved.
For Xiao Ying, he could be so ruthless to her!
She hated them, but so what? She could no longer get out. Even if she got out in the future, she would have no one to rely on. How could she deal with Long Ming and Xiao Ying with her bare hands?
Lou Lan also completely understood that no one could replace Xiao Ying’s position in Long Ming’s heart.
Liu Yiyi and her were the best examples!
…
After Xiao Ying arrived at the island, Long Mei brought her to meet the famous designer, Devin.
Devin was in his twenties and was a genius in the design industry.
Xiao Ying had asked Devin to design a wedding gown for her. She did not want Long Ming to know about her custom-made wedding gown and style. She wanted to give him a surprise on their wedding day.
Devin showed Xiao Ying the draft he had drawn. Xiao Ying suggested some changes to the details.
After finalizing the design draft, Xiao Ying invited Devin to dinner.
After ordering, Xiao Ying received a call from Long Ming.
“Where are you?”
“I’m having dinner with a friend outside.”
“What friend?”
“A very ordinary friend.”
“Really?” The man smiled darkly.
Noting that something was wrong, Xiao Ying looked up and saw the man walking in from the entrance of the restaurant.
