Chapter 901: Enter Officially
High heels were nice to see, but if one had to walk in them, it was possible for a few steps. Other than that, it was pure torture. Besides, she was walking on this uneven ground.
Xia Yixuan’s heels had actually turned a few times, and she was wearing those that were very thin as if she was walking on her toes. One could just imagine how painful her feet were.
Chu Lui placed his phone by his ear.
“Jingtang, go fetch Xia Yixuan. She said her private hire car broke down on the road. Go fetch her.”
“It’s too far, and I didn’t drive.”
Du Jingtang grumbled, but his eyes were delighted. He could finally have a break so he would naturally go as far as he could. Of course, it was also to avoid scenarios like now where his cousin sent him to fetch those women he did not want to fetch.
Yes, it was a woman. He really hated Xia Yixuan and would rather fetch a pig than fetch her.
Chu Lui ended the call and threw his phone aside. He stood up himself and was prepared to go out, but he had a stack of documents that needed to be handled.
No matter what. He could not let Xia Yixuan go back by herself. If something happened to her on the way back, he could not explain to Xia Mingzheng. After all, she left his house; and he would have to take a certain amount of responsibility.
He took his suit jacket, opened the door, and went out. Outside, the thunder sounded; and it seemed like it was about to rain.
The sky was very dark, and the gray clouds loomed over ominously as if they were pressing onto people’s chests, causing them to be unable to breathe.
Xia Yixuan had never been so unlucky in her life. Previously, the car was gone; and her phone was stolen by some thief that popped out of nowhere. Now, even if she wanted to call a car, it was impossible. She could only rely on her legs to walk.
Her ankle bent again, but the heel was still stable and did not break. Bang! She fell straight onto the floor, and there was a hole in her stockings. Even her hand used to support her fall had an abrasion and was bleeding.
Si… She raised her hands, and they hurt so much until she started crying. She could only crawl up and continue to limp forward. Her knees had abrasions, and her socks were torn and tattered. She cried while she scolded and walked, but she did not know that someone was following her from behind.
When she looked down at her knees and wanted to curse again, a hand was extended forward and directly covered her mouth while pulling her to the side.
That hand reached into her clothes and violently rubbed her skin. She widened her eyes and could only cry without a sound. She could not even see the person’s face clearly, and a slap landed on her face, which almost caused her to faint.
Si! The man tore her clothes, and she was hopeless. Even though she had quite a few men, she had never been r*ped like this before. It was even a dirty, smelly, and disgusting man. She was disgusted and wanted to vomit as the man’s hands reached in and grabbed the two balls in front of her chest, soon rubbing them with all his might. Xia Yixuan could even hear his heavy breathing and could smell the stink coming out from his mouth as though he had not brushed his teeth in a few years.
That man’s hands continued to rip her shirt apart, and they moved down from her chest. She kept kicking from time to time and wanted to escape. Piak! The man slapped her again and caused her face and mouth to become numb.
She could even hear the sound of the man taking it out of his pants. Xia Yixuan was really hopeless. Even though she was not a virgin, she was afraid that the man would kill her after r*ping her.
Suddenly, a bitter cry came from somewhere; and Xia Yixuan’s felt light. The man pressing on her previously had already rolled to the side, and a piece of cloth was put on her shoulders.
“Lui… Brother Lui…”
This clothing… this smell… It was Chu Lui’s. It was Brother Lui’s. It was him. Did he come to save her?
Xia Yixuan’s tears and mucus started flowing at the same time. The makeup on her face was long ruined, her hair could raise a nest of birds, and her shirt was ripped apart, exposing the glory inside.
That man that was beaten up on the floor realized that something was off, and he ran as fast as he could. Chu Lui could not chase after him as Xia Yixuan was still here.
“Are you okay?” Chu Lui squatted down and said nonchalantly and helplessly. Right now, his brows were tightly knitted together.
“Brother Lui…” Xia Yixuan hugged Chu Lui’s neck and refused to let go no matter what.
Chu Lui could only put his hand on her back and pat it gently. His actions were stiff and kind of unnatural. He had a certain responsibility to bear towards Xia Yixuan meeting this kind of incident today so no matter what, he had to be more patient and comforting towards Xia Yixuan who was frightened silly. Then, he helped her up. At this point, the sky started to rain heavily; and the rain landed on them mercilessly.
The loss or touching feeling after a crime had nothing to do with the weather.
The rain seemed to be heavier, and not long after they left, a woman came out from the side. The cold rain landed on her hair and her shoulders. In no time, her straight hair was drenched; and her face very pale. Only her eyes were dark, and it was hard to brighten them up.
She extended her hands and caught the rainwater.
“Xia Yixuan, someone saved you when you were in danger, but what about me? Why am I only left alone to save myself? Why didn’t anyone come save me? When you were young, there was a father who loved you and a mother who did not treat me as her daughter. When you’re older, you have Chu Lui, but I only have hatred for him. You caused me to become like this, but he still saved you. Hah…”
She smiled, and her strands of hair stuck onto her face as rain droplets dripped down from them.
“The man who claimed he loved me was just like that…”
She turned around and left the place. Without holding an umbrella, she disappeared into the rain curtain, step by step. Her entire body was even thinner and weaker than before, but her back was straighter and stiffer than ever.
Just like that, Xia Yixuan managed to stick around in the Chu family and could be considered to have truly entered their family.
Chu Jiang went over to talk to Song Wan, and Chu Lui sat on the couch while flipping a business magazine.
Not long later, Chu Jiang came down and sat in front of Chu Lui; but he did not look too good.
“Ah Lui, have you decided on her?”
Chu Jiang rubbed his forehead, and his entire person looked as if he had aged by ten years. “Forget it, you decide on your own matters yourself. I can’t care so much anymore.”
Chu Lui put down the magazines in his hands. Actually, he knew what Chu Jiang was asking; but he refused to answer this question.
Not long later, Xia Mingzheng came over and wanted to talk about the two children. The person had already stayed there, and the Xia household was a prominent family so they could not let her carry on without a status. This would not be good either to the Chu family or the Xia household.
