Chapter Sixty-Two
ng or Hong Kong I want to take Yán Luòxī on a honeymoon trip to Nàodǎo Island. Don't know if Dad would allow it; if he doesn’t, then I’ll ask Mom, she’s so kind…"Liyi, who was brandishing stern words...Chapter 62
Ni Xuanyi walked slowly and lightly. When she entered Li Yi's room, he was still on the phone, speaking lowly yet fiercely: "Remember, beat that scoundrel to death; make sure he never comes back this lifetime!"
Despite knowing that Li Yi wasn't talking about her tonight, Ni Xuanyi was still somewhat afraid and couldn't help but widen her eyes. She subconsciously wanted to wrap her arms around herself tightly, only to feel a faint pain when she touched her arm, causing her to softly emit an "Ah" sound.
Upon hearing the sound from behind him, Li Yi quickly turned around. He saw that she had wrapped a piece of bandage around her forehead, making her small face look even smaller and paler than before. Her eyes were wide open with tears glistening inside them.
He smiled at Ni Xuanyi and beckoned to her. This pitiful child had just moments ago bravely faced the enemy but was now trembling in fear!
She really is a little girl after all!
Li Yi couldn't help but soften his voice: "Xuanxuan, come here and let me take a look at you."
Ni Xuanyi stared blankly at Li Yi's kind and handsome face for a moment. Suddenly feeling as if she had the weight of the world on her shoulders, she rushed over to him in two steps and buried her head in his embrace while crying.
Li Yi quickly looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to them before carefully half-lifting Ni Xuanyi into an empty ward. He let her cry and sob freely.
Ni Xuanyi didn't know what had come over her. When everything happened just now, her mind seemed to have been numbed by fear. Only now had she snapped out of the shock; leaning against the one she loved most, she couldn't hold back any longer and let tears fall in a steady stream.
Liyi felt a warm and damp sensation in his chest, and a long-forgotten tenderness rose from the depths of his heart. He tightened his arm around her waist, holding her tightly in his embrace. He gently patted Ni Xuanyi's back as if she were a child. Ever since he saw Ni Xuanyi being grabbed by the drunkard, Liyi had felt an inexplicable panic. He knew that he could save Ni Xuanyi and ensure her safety, but he couldn't figure out what exactly he was afraid of. Now that he finally held Ni Xuanyi in his arms, his heart settled down.
Ni Xuanyi cried for a long time until she had no more tears left, then she leaned against Liyi's chest and sobbed softly.
Liyi sighed gently and said with some lingering fear, "Xuanxuan, you were really reckless today. That person was completely out of his mind after drinking alcohol. Why didn't you call the police first Why did you just rush in alone Do you know how dangerous that is"
From Liyi's tone, Ni Xuanyi could tell he was worried and anxious; actually, she had noticed his concern and fear even earlier.
She always thought that a person like Liyi—someone who appeared impervious to everything—shouldn't show any weakness towards anything. A perfect and invulnerable individual like him shouldn’t have any vulnerabilities at all.
But just now, she saw his fear and worry.
In this moment, Ni Xuanyi's despondent and hopeless heart began to heal gradually. She was happy as she leaned against Liyi’s chest with a congested nose and said, "At that time, I was very anxious and feared he would kill Lin Yino."
"Didn’t you fear that he might kill you" Liyi's voice carried obvious anger.
Ni Xuanyi chuckled, "There’s you, isn't there You came to save me in time!"
"Foolish child!" Liyi gently patted Ni Xuanyi’s head carefully. "What if I hadn’t come looking for you tonight What if I had important matters elsewhere tonight"
"Oh right, Brother Li Yi, how did you end up coming upstairs" Ni Xuanyi suddenly became curious. Li Yi always kept a distance from her to avoid any appearance of impropriety, and he had never come to her dormitory for fear that company employees might see him.
"I... I saw your friend on the street. He was eating street food with a girl. He told me you weren't feeling well and went back to your dorm. So I came up to check on you. I called you several times but you didn’t answer, so I assumed something might have happened to you and came up here..."
Li Yi's words were vague, but Ni Xuanyi did not pry further. In any case, she knew that Li Yi still cared about her, which was enough.
The same night, Li Yi didn’t keep Ni Xuanyi at the hospital; instead, he brought her straight to his home. And Ni Xuanyi made no objections, as if this place were where she belonged by right.
Red decorative lights still hung in the grand entrance hall of the Li residence, with a strong festive atmosphere remaining.
Li Yi smiled and explained to Ni Xuanyi, "My parents came back for the New Year. Yesterday they left with Aunt Xiaoshu and Mei Zhuo to visit friends on an island."
Ni Xuanyi nodded and sat down on the sofa.
Now that she had woken up from her nightmare, her mind was functioning normally again. She couldn’t help but recall what happened last night. Was their parting unsatisfactory Would they never meet again
Li Yi, with his extensive experience and better emotional control compared to Ni Xuanyi, acted as if he had completely forgotten about the events of the previous night. He looked at Ni Xuanyi with a warm smile.
He instructed the butler that since Ni Xuanyi had sustained serious head and arm injuries, they should invite their private doctor and nurse to take care of her for several days.
The entire Li family started bustling around just from this one sentence.
The butler hurriedly made phone calls, inviting doctors and nurses to come as soon as possible. The kitchen began preparing stewed tonics and porridge, while someone went to prepare a bath for Ni Xuanyi and make up her bed.
Ni Xuanyi watched everyone running around忙碌不堪，有些不好意思。她隻是受了些小傷，有必要這麼大陣仗嗎？
But since Li Yi said he wanted it, naturally they had to do so.
Literally, Li Yi personally escorted Ni Xuanyi into her old bedroom, closing the window and drawing the curtains for her. He adjusted the air conditioner to a suitable temperature and even carefully found a nightgown that she could wear while hanging her arm. Finally, he even squeezed toothpaste for her.
Sitting on the bed, Ni Xuanyi watched Li Yi doing all these things for her, feeling as though countless emotions filled her heart again, making her brim with joy once more.
At this moment, a servant brought over the stewed tonics. These tonics were specially prepared to treat Ni Xuanyi's external injuries. Upon smelling their strong medicinal scent, she frowned and leaned back slightly, adopting an almost resistant stance.
Li Yi walked over with a smile, coaxing her gently as if dealing with a child: "Xuanyan, drink it quickly. This way, your bone injury will heal faster; you don't want to keep your arm hanging like that forever, do you"
The servant next to them couldn’t help but chuckle softly at the sight of Li Yi being so tender with Ni Xuanyi.
Ni Xuanyi felt a bit embarrassed and frowned tightly, still obediently drinking all the medicinal tonic in one bowl.htly surprised and turned her head a little bit to see Li An sleeping with his head buried in her shoulder.Li An was also sound asleep, breathing evenly, long eyelashes resting on an exquisite and bea...
