My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away!-Chapter 177 - 176: How Is That Possible?
Chapter 177: Chapter 176: How Is That Possible?
Cheng Ying stepped forward, wrapped her arm around the man’s neck, and looked up with a smile, "Why do you have such a stern face, who were you just talking to on the phone?"
"Assistant Chen."
"Assistant Chen? Is there a problem with the project’s progress here?"
The man did not deny nor confirm, he simply responded coolly, "I can handle things here, don’t worry."
"Why would I ever worry about your work? You are, after all, the head of Leng’s. When you took over Leng’s, it was falling apart. Everyone thought it would collapse like other companies, but within just a year of taking over, not only did you revive Leng’s, but you also..."
But at this point, Cheng Ying abruptly paused. How could she forget that the year he took over Leng’s was also the year he married Lin Yixun?
That year has always been a taboo for this man, something that couldn’t be brought up.
Cheng Ying cautiously watched Leng Yixiu’s expression, and as expected, his face turned icy cold.
She could only change the subject, covering her stomach and acting coy, "Xiū, I’m hungry."
Hearing this, the man’s expression softened slightly, and he lowered his eyes, speaking in a deep voice, "Let’s go."
Cheng Ying reached out to grab the man’s right hand, but whether intentionally or not, his steps suddenly sped up a few paces, leaving her grasp empty.
Cheng Ying’s hand stiffened in mid-air, feeling a sense of loss. For some reason, she felt like something was slipping away from her life bit by bit.
She gritted her teeth and quickly followed. She believed that effort would pay off. Four years ago, she managed to get back together with Leng Yixiu, and now would be no exception. No one could take Leng Yixiu away from her!
Lin Yixun had just stepped out of the ward when Ouyang Hao’s call came through.
On the other end of the line, Ouyang Hao’s anxious voice rang out, "You wooden blockhead, where did you go? Why haven’t you shown up for so long?"
"Mr. Ouyang, I just went back to the hotel for a bit." Although the injury on Lin Yixun’s tongue wasn’t severe, it made her speech less clear.
Ouyang Hao noticed the odd tone in her voice and frowned, "What’s wrong with you, why are you speaking so unclearly, did you hurt your tongue?"
"I accidentally bit my tongue while eating just now."
"Are you an idiot? How can you bite your tongue while eating? Next time when you drink water, are you going to choke to death?" Lin Yixun’s unclear speech made Ouyang Hao uncomfortable. Annoyed, he said, "Hurry up and get over here, I’m hungry!"
"Mr. Ouyang, I might not be able to make it in time to cook for you right now." Besides, isn’t Li Yun’er there? She wouldn’t let him starve, would she?
"No time? Can’t you buy something and bring it over?"
"Oh, okay."
Bali Island is not too big nor too small. Lin Yixun only realized belatedly that the hospital she was in was the same one as Ouyang Hao’s. She bought some snacks at the hospital entrance.
When she reached the floor where Ouyang Hao’s ward was located, from a distance, Lin Yixun could hear laughter coming from Ouyang Hao’s ward. The laughter was mixed with a man’s hearty laugh and Li Yun’er’s bell-like giggle.
Through the ajar door, Lin Yixun could vaguely see the scene inside. Li Yun’er was feeding Ouyang Hao, just like she did this morning.
Lin Yixun lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly. So, she wasn’t the only one who fed Ouyang Hao.
Compared to the morning, the atmosphere between the two seemed even more harmonious, so harmonious that the entire air felt sweet. During their conversation, Li Yun’er said something that made Ouyang Hao laugh heartily.
This scene made Lin Yixun’s heart ache inexplicably, and before she knew it, her heart was in turmoil.
How could it be? How could she...
How could she possibly!
