Chapter 116 Li Family's Infatuated Lover

to open the door for her. While knocking on the door, she called out: "Luoxi, I know you're inside, could you please open the door There are a few things I'd like to talk to you about... Please, could...Chapter 116: Li Family's Love-struck Member

The woman who entered was very beautiful, but her expression was cold and indifferent, which would make people think that she is an arrogant woman. Because of her beauty, there was a kind of arrogance that ignored everyone else, and because of her beauty, there was a kind of aloofness that did not want to chat with others.

But Li An knew that she wasn't arrogant or aloof; she simply didn't like talking.

The little nurse nodded and said "Hello, Madam" when the woman came in before leaving.

"I was the one who saved you," The woman gave Li An a faint smile. Her eyes swept across his face as if she had been startled and quickly lowered her long lashes; pain and sorrow flashed in her eyes for an instant.

Li An's feelings towards this woman before him were rather peculiar—neither good nor bad. When they first met, it was during the years when Yan Luoxi first ran away, a time when Li An’s pride had been severely injured. Whenever he faced this woman, his attitude would either be sarcastic or mocking; at that time, no matter who it was, they couldn't expect to see him in good spirits.

"Thank you for saving me and my bodyguards."

Perhaps because Li An's apology sounded too sincere, the woman raised her head in surprise. She looked at Li An thoughtfully as if she wanted to find something on his face.

"What are you looking at They say I don't look like my brother," It was the first time after all these years that Li An had spoken seriously to this woman, apologizing to her. Seeing her staring at him so intently now made him feel somewhat awkward. He cleared his throat and forced a casual smile.

"How can you still be so insufferable You should have starved to death in the forest," the woman glanced at Li An with a sidelong glance. Though her words were harsh, there was a hint of tenderness in her expression.

At this moment, Li An's face was pale and lackluster, his cheeks hollow, and his lips devoid of any color. He appeared to be so weak that he could fall at any moment, yet his narrow eyes remained sharp and piercing, radiating an indescribable keenness.

"Heh heh, I’m the kind who lives to cause trouble for a thousand years! You want me dead Not soon enough!" Li An’s laugh was mocking.

"Of course you can't die. If you did, someone would surely be heartbroken," said the woman as she let out an almost imperceptible sigh, her gaze lost outside the window.

Li An was moved by the woman's sadness and wiped off his playful expression, asking in bewilderment: "Did you get married"

The woman visibly recoiled, a faint blush creeping onto her cheeks. After a moment of silence, she softly replied: "Who told you I got married"

“Just now, that nurse called you madam. Why Why are both of you so heartless, changing your minds and marrying others the way you do!” Li An’s hoarse voice suddenly rose in pitch; he looked at the woman with eyes full of rage and sorrow.

The woman stared at Li An's sudden agitation, paused for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Li An, so it turns out that someone broke up with you, leading you to give up hope and come to the Golden Triangle to throw your life away. Ha ha! Li An, Li An, I never thought the demon of this world would meet such an end..."

Upon being hit at her weak point by the woman's words, Li An gave a short, resentful snort and had to admit that despite her constant opposition from the start and continued hostility towards him later on, she understood him very well. She could easily see through his current situation — he was trapped in love and seeking death.

Ni Xuanyi laughed for a while, then slowly stopped laughing. Her face gradually showed sadness, and her tone returned to its indifferent state. "I am now engaged to him, but we will soon have our wedding ceremony. After the engagement, he instructed everyone to call me 'Madam.' Li An, your family is looking for you. I've already informed them that you are safe, and they will come to pick you up very soon."

"Who is he What does he do Is he powerful Better than my big brother Where am I" Li An narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This is an inn." Ni Xuanyi automatically ignored Li An's previous questions, her voice indifferent and somewhat vague, making it seem as if she could vanish at any moment.

"Are you planning to leave me here for my brother to pick up but won't see him yourself" Li An asked hoarsely without waiting for an answer from Ni Xuanyi. Suddenly, he felt a wave of sorrow in his heart.

He himself didn’t understand feelings, and neither did his brother.

He had once been the most against Ni Xuanyi becoming his sister-in-law, but now he suddenly realized that perhaps no one loved his brother more deeply than Ni Xuanyi.

The primeval forest where he got lost was very hidden; even his own subordinates couldn’t find him, yet Ni Xuanyi did. She must have heard about his disappearance and feared his big brother would be worried and upset, so she disregarded the dangers of the Golden Triangle and ventured into the perilous jungle to search for him.

To love someone means to love all that pertains to them!

"Since you still love my big brother, why do you want to get engaged to another person Why do you want to marry another person!" Li An looked at Ni Xuanyi with a heart filled with pain.

Liyi is Ni Xuanyi's weak spot; just mentioning these things turns Ni Xuanyi's face completely pale. She takes a deep breath and smiles faintly at Li An, her sad smile making Li An feel like crying.

"I am from a different world than him. No matter how hard I try, I cannot enter his life. I'm just a village girl who will never fit into high society. I think this place suits me better."

"Ni Xuanyi..."

Ni Xuanyi shakes her head and interrupts Li An, saying, "It's getting late. Your brother and the others should be arriving soon. I need to leave now. There are people nearby who will ensure your safety until they arrive."

Li An feels heartache hearing this, "Can't you wait for him"

"What’s the point of waiting for him when I'm like this now" Ni Xuanyi smiles bitterly. "Lian, I have to go. Take care of yourself." After gazing deeply at Li An for a long time, she takes a deep breath and turns to leave.

Li An knows clearly that Ni Xuanyi is distressed about her brother. At this moment, even his own bewitching appearance means nothing to her.

The sorrow in a woman's eyes shakes Li An’s heart, making him feel that her ethereal beauty is more beautiful than ever before.

"Ni Xuanyi, stop!" Li An shouts loudly.
