My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away!-Chapter 179 - 178: She and Her, A World of Difference
Chapter 179: Chapter 178: She and Her, A World of Difference
"Alright, since you’ve said so, I can’t keep relying on you. Besides, I haven’t lost anything in this matter from start to finish." Because of her pairing with Ouyang Hao, her exposure had increased significantly recently.
Li Yun’er stood up and smiled at Ouyang Hao, "I still have things to do, so I’ll go first. Take good care of yourself; otherwise, your fans might feel heartbroken."
"Alright, safe travels," he replied without further ado.
Li Yun’er glared at him in annoyance, "You’re really heartless. When I heard you were hurt, I rushed here from miles away. And what do I get? Not even a word to make me stay."
Ouyang Hao smirked lazily, "As a ’girlfriend’, it’s only normal to rush over when your boyfriend is injured and on the brink of death."
"Normal, perfectly normal," Li Yun’er conceded, unwilling to stay longer. Before leaving, she blew Ouyang Hao a kiss, "See you in E City, my dear boyfriend."
Lin Yixun returned from the water room and happened to witness this scene. To her, it looked like harmless flirting.
She shifted her gaze nonchalantly. As Li Yun’er stepped out of the ward, Lin Yixun moved slightly to the side to make way for her.
As they brushed past each other, Lin Yixun subconsciously sized her up. Li Yun’er was tall, fair-skinned, and had impeccable features. The confidence and elegance she exuded were unattainable for many female celebrities.
In contrast, Lin Yixun felt a bitter smile form. Compared to Li Yun’er, she felt like a dim star beside a shimmering diamond.
Even before making the comparison, she already felt defeated.
Lin Yixun smiled self-deprecatingly. What was she comparing herself to Li Yun’er for? At this point, did she still not understand her place?
She was no longer the person she used to be.
Seeing Lin Yixun keeping her head down and eyebrows furrowed, lost in thought, Ouyang Hao couldn’t help but ask, "What are you thinking about? Hurry over and pour me some water; I’m dying of thirst!"
Startled back to reality, Lin Yixun quickly stepped forward, clumsily poured a cup of hot water, and handed it to Ouyang Hao.
Ouyang Hao drank some hot water and handed the cup back to her. His gaze unintentionally swept past her face, noticing her pale complexion. His brows furrowed, "What’s wrong with you? You don’t look well."
Lin Yixun’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she replied coolly, "Nothing, maybe I caught a cold."
Hearing her voice, Ouyang Hao’s face tightened even more, "I told you, you don’t have to gulp down your food like that. Look at you, now you can hardly talk properly. It’s just silly!"
Lin Yixun lowered her eyes and remained silent.
"Open your mouth and let me see if it’s serious."
Lin Yixun’s expression changed slightly, and she took a few steps back, "No need, Ouyang Xiaosheng."
Ouyang Hao almost broke character at the mention of "Ouyang Xiaosheng". He found it both amusing and frustrating. He shouted at Lin Yixun, "I told you to come over, so come over! Why are you dawdling? Didn’t you say that if I survived, you’d listen to whatever I say?"
Seeing that Ouyang Hao wouldn’t relent, Lin Yixun felt a bit helpless. Fortunately, at that moment, an unexpected phone call came through.
Ouyang Hao saw the name on the phone screen and was so shocked he almost fell off the bed. After several rings, he finally answered it, changing from his fierce demeanor to that of a docile kitten.
"Hello, brother?"
