Duan Weilin looked at Lin Xiyan quietly as if time had stopped. Lin Xiyan didn't understand what he was thinking at the moment.
Soon, Duan Weilin let go of Lin Xiyan and got up from the bed to walk to the balcony. Lin Xiyan asked tentatively,""Duan Weilin, where are you going?"
"You told me to be serious. Alright, I'm serious. I'll go find Li Yizhuo now."
He had never used such a cold tone to her. Lin Xiyan realized that she was really stupid. How could she lay her cards on the table with a cold-blooded animal, a murderer?
"No, I was joking just now. Don't be serious.”Lin Xiyan hugged Duan Weilin tightly from behind, afraid that he would disappear if she let go.
Duan Weilin turned around and the coldness on his face faded, replaced by a gentle smile.""My Yan 'er is so cute. It's okay, I'm tired."
The speed at which his expression changed was really fast. Now, it was completely impossible to see the murderous coldness from before. Oscar owed him an Oscar.
As the end of term approached, everyone was preparing for the exam. The exams weren't a problem for him. What was difficult was that after the final exams, it would be his wedding with Li Yizhuo. Duan Weilin had no intention of letting her go. He would really do it. Even if she married Li Yizhuo, he would still have ways to pester her. Naturally, he would not make Li Yizhuo a cuckold. How should he deal with this shameless bastard Duan Weilin?
" Xiyan, come back to your senses." Li Xinyou pulled back the dazed Lin Xiyan.
"Youyou, what's the matter?"
"School is over. Xiyan, you've been acting strange recently."
Lin Xiyan packed her bag." I've been busy with revision recently, so I'm a little tired." Where's Xiao Ya? Isn't she going to watch the show with us?”
"Xiao Ya is going to tutor tonight, so she won't be going. Xiyan, hurry up. Brother should be at the school gate by now.”
Lin Xiyan and Li Xinyou walked out of the school gate and Li Yizhuo was already waiting for them. Li Yizhuo drove straight to the theater, which belonged to the Vermilion Bird Sect.
Long Qian had reserved the best private room for them. Liu Xianglan and Qin Shuhua had already arrived. Because they were now on the same side as Second Aunt, Lin Xiyan had also given Liang Yan the tickets.
"I heard that Bai Xiaosheng, who sings the song Qingyi, is very famous in the capital. He's even more charming when he dresses up as a woman.”Liang Yan told him the news she had heard.
"I didn't hear it, it's the truth. I've heard him sing in the capital before. His singing of Qing Yi is really very good.”Qin Shuhua added.
"Mom, tell me, is that Bai Xiaosheng really beautiful?”Li Xinyou became interested.
Lin Xiyan wasn't interested. In fact, there was no doubt that this was a classic show. However, in modern times, only a few old people or opera lovers would listen to it. Boys and girls of 17 or 18 years old or younger could line up all night to buy tickets to a celebrity's concert, but they would not spend an hour or two watching opera. He was no exception.
As the filming began, there were no longer any seats left in the audience. It seemed like Bai Xiaosheng had a lot of fans.
Lin Xiyan wasn't interested in acting and looked around. It turned out that Long Qian was sitting in the private room next to her. Lin Xiyan greeted Long Qian with a smile.
Xi 'er, the show is starting." Li Yizhuo said. He saw Lin Xiyan smiling at Long Qian, and a sour feeling welled up in his heart.
Men were sometimes more jealous than women. Lin Xiyan turned her eyes to the stage with an " oh ".
Lin Xiyan did not understand a single word of the singing on the stage. Everyone around her listened with great interest, and there was a prelude to dozing off.
" Bang!" The sound of a gunshot woke up the onlookers. A few people with guns rushed in. Cries and shouts filled the theater, and chaos began to ensue. Then, some people in military uniforms rushed in.
"Miss Lin, Chief Long asked us to escort you out.”Luo Er brought seven or eight men to Lin Xiyan's private room.
" Mother, don't be afraid. Xi 'er is here." Lin Xiyan held Liu Xianglan in her arms and followed Luo Er, while Li Yizhuo brought Qin Shuhua and Li Xinyou.
The scene was very chaotic. The crowd was ramming into each other. The people who rushed in and the soldiers were shooting at each other. Some innocent people had already fallen in a pool of blood.
" Mother!" The crowd pushed Lin Xiyan and Liu Xianglan away.
" Xi 'er!" Li Yizhuo shouted.
"Yi Zhuo, don't worry about me, take mother and YiNiang out first.”Lin Xiyan shouted at Li Yizhuo. At this time, Lin Xiyan saw Duan Weilin's figure in the crowd.
" Xiyan, are you alright?" Long Qian came to Lin Xiyan's side worriedly,"" Follow me." Long Qian pulled Lin Xiyan.
Lin Xiyan didn't think much about it and held Long Qian's hand as she followed closely behind her. Suddenly, Lin Xiyan saw someone pointing a gun at Long Qian,""Brother Long, be careful." Lin Xiyan pushed Long Qian away. The bullet missed her arm and left a bloody mark.
" Xiyan!" Long Qian looked at the bloody scar with heartache and picked Lin Xiyan up,""Luo Er, you clean up the mess. I'll take Xiyan to the hospital.”
The theater had been surrounded by Duan Weilin's army. Long Qian took Lin Xiyan and left in a car.
"Xiyan, bear with it. We'll be at the hospital soon.”Long Qian tore off his long robe and bandaged Lin Xiyan.
The bullet only grazed past him, and it didn't hurt that much. He could still bear it. She had just seen Li Yizhuo in the crowd. He had seen Long Qian carrying her into the car. She didn't know how he should view her.
"Brother Long, send me home." Li Yizhuo should bring his mother home, and she should explain to him.
"Your wound is still bleeding." Long Qian was distressed and worried.
"It's just a scratch. I can handle this small injury myself. Brother Long, can you send me home?"
Long Qian asked the driver to stop at a pharmacy and got out of the car. Soon, he took some medicine and said,""Even if you can handle it yourself, you still need medicine.”
"Thank you, Brother Long."
"I'm the one thanking you. You saved me. I'll apply some painkillers for you first. You can take care of it when you get home.”
Lin Xiyan smiled and stopped talking. She was very tired. Perhaps the painkillers contained some anesthetic, Lin Xiyan felt her eyelids were heavy and gradually fell asleep while leaning against the car door.
Long Qian looked at Lin Xiyan. Her palm-sized face, long eyelashes, high nose bridge, soft skin, and slightly open red lips were all attractive to him. Long Qian turned his head and dared not look at Lin Xiyan again, afraid that he would not be able to resist kissing her red lips.
He might not be able to call the wind and summon the rain in the city, but he still had a place. As long as he waved his hand and nodded, there would be plenty of noble ladies. However, Lin Xiyan was the only one who could make him want to start a family, and she was also the one who could arouse the love that he had long forgotten.
The car stopped at the Lin family's house. There was anesthetic in the painkillers, so she was still asleep. The driver opened the door and Long Qian carried Lin Xiyan into the Lin family home.
Li Yizhuo had already brought Liu Xianglan and Liang Yan back to the Lin Family home. He saw Long Qian carrying Lin Xiyan away, but he didn't know where Long Qian was taking her, so he could only wait at the Lin Family home.
Long Qian walked into the living room of the Lin family. Li Yizhuo hurriedly took the sleeping Lin Xiyan from his arms. Although Long Qian was extremely reluctant, he still let go.
"Chief Long, Xi 'er is my unmarried wife. I hope Chief Long won't take Xi' er away again. Chief Long was a well-educated person. He knew that it was best not to think about things that shouldn't be yours. Also, my wedding with Xi 'er will be held in a month. I hope Chief Long can give me the honor of drinking with us.”Li Yizhuo made it clear.
"First, Xiyan is my sister. Second, although I am not a gentleman, I will not steal someone else's favor.”Long Qian said,
"I hope Chief Long will remember what he said.”
Looking at the undercurrent between the two, Lin Sihan suddenly understood that Long Qian also liked Lin Xiyan.
"Thank you for sending Xi 'er back, Chief Long. Please take a seat and serve some tea.”Lin Sihan said fawningly,
"There's no need. I still have things to deal with. Xiyan was injured, so Young Master Li took good care of her.”
"I will. Take care, Chief Long." After saying that, Li Yizhuo carried Lin Xiyan upstairs.
After Long Qian left, Liu Junru, who was standing beside Lin Sihan, said mockingly,""I didn't know Xi 'er was so capable. He could also rely on a famous figure like Chief Long.”
"What do you mean by Xi 'er going to depend on Chief Long? Can't you tell? It's Chief Long who likes my Xi 'er. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have agreed to the Li family's marriage. Chief Long is more capable than the Li family. It was said that Chief Long had more backing in the capital than the White Tiger Hall, so even Du Tianbo was afraid of Chief Long. "If our Lin family can rely on Master Long, we won't dare to say that we can be unscrupulous, but we can still get whatever we want.”Lin Sihan somewhat regretted the marriage with the Li family. If Lin Xiyan married Long Qian, even the Du family would not take her seriously.
"Master, do you want to break off the engagement?" Liu Junru probed.
"I want to, but now the entire city knows about the marriage between the Lin and Li families. The Li family was not to be trifled with.”
"Master, there's still a month before the wedding. Perhaps there's a way.”Liu Junru incited Lin Sihan.
Was there any other way? Lin Sihan walked upstairs with a heart full of thoughts.
