Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 566 - 547: Willing to Die for You

Seeing the worry in his friend’s eyes, Yan Ting couldn’t help but feel concerned for him as well, his brows furrowing tightly: "I’ll do my best to help you maneuver through this!"

Gu Qianxi looked at him with gratitude: "Yan Ting, thank you!"

"Your father saved me from the edge of death. I don’t even know how to thank him. Now that I’ve finally caught a chance to repay him, there’s no way I’m going to let it slip." Yan Ting’s thin lips curved into a gentle smile.

Gu Qianxi chuckled lightly: "How are you still holding onto that? Saving lives is just the duty of us doctors!"

"Maybe it’s just a duty for you, but for me, it means so much more. I know my uncle tried to interfere back then, but your father went ahead despite the risks and saved me. That alone proves the significance of this debt." Yan Ting reminisced about the past, a hint of sadness still lingering.

Unfortunately, thinking about the horrifying thing his uncle planned to do to him in the past couple of days sent chills through Yan Ting’s heart.

If he could make it through this crisis safely, he vowed to wrest control of the company’s management. If he won, he’d be able to protect the ones he loved from harm. He had to win; losing was not an option!

Gu Qianxi took a sip of his drink and turned back, catching the spaced-out expression on Yan Ting’s face. He couldn’t help but express concern: "Yan Ting, do you have something weighing on your mind as well?"

Yan Ting snapped out of his daze and chuckled self-mockingly: "Yeah, I’ve got plenty of troubling things going on right now. But my issues need time to sort out, so it’s best not to talk about them now."

The two men sipped their drinks, savoring the bittersweet taste in their glasses—a feeling only they could understand.

Gu Qianxi stayed for another half hour before getting up to leave.

Yan Ting went upstairs, opened the bedroom door, and saw Lin Banxia lying on the bed, scrolling through news on her phone. His expression was suffused with affection.

"Still looking at your phone?" He walked over and directly snatched her phone, tossing it aside.

"I’m bored!" Lin Banxia stuck out her tongue, looking sheepish like a guilty child. After all, given her pregnancy, Yan Ting and the old lady intensely monitored her and wouldn’t let her recklessly use her phone.

"Really that bored?" Yan Ting sat on the bed, pulling her directly into his arms. "Then let’s do something fun!"

Lin Banxia’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise. The next moment, her delicate hand was guided by the man to a certain place.

And his thin lips pressed down right after.

Lin Banxia’s boredom was forcefully swept away by the man’s domineering presence. All that remained was a blank mind.

After Yan Ting was satisfied, Lin Banxia leaned speechlessly against his chest.

"Tell me about things from your past life," Yan Ting said, clearly curious about her.

"What do you want to know?" Lin Banxia asked softly.

"How... did you die?" Yan Ting hesitated, having avoided this topic, but he couldn’t contain his curiosity any longer. Lin Banxia had also refrained from elaborating before. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"I drowned in cold water." Lin Banxia let out a self-deprecating laugh.

Yan Ting’s body stiffened. He lowered his gaze, looking at the trembling Lin Banxia in his arms: "I’m sorry. It’s all my fault!"

"If I hadn’t died, I don’t know if I would have continued living trapped in that cage." Lin Banxia smiled bitterly.

"No, if I said I would marry you, then I absolutely would have married you!" Yan Ting stroked her silky hair, his voice filled with unwavering certainty.

"I know. But even if I married you and we were together, we would undoubtedly face criticism, and it would tarnish your reputation. I don’t want you to deal with those troubles because of me. So, it’s better that I died." Lin Banxia said optimistically with a soft smile.
