C364 A Loyal Dog
Old Nazhi frowned slightly because he could see the difference between Hai Xiaomin and him. Compared to the night they left, her eyes were no longer as firm as before.
What? Could it be that she had already wavered because of Ling Yao's words?
Old Nazhi hoped to get Hai Xiaomin's approval. As long as she was on the same side as him, qiao would have no chance of winning!
On the other side, Ian took in the subtle changes in Old Nazhi's expression without making any sound.
Hai Xiaomin rubbed her sweaty palms against the corner of her clothes and her lips parted slightly. "Grandfather, I want to..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Ian suddenly stood up from the side and supported her shoulder. He leaned over and blocked her line of sight.
The contact between the lips did not require much strength to easily block Hai Xiaomin's mouth. She widened her eyes in shock as she looked at Ian who was very close to her.
What was he doing?!
"You are not in good health. Let's go back." Ian said softly as if there was no one around.
His movement came too suddenly, and everyone was caught off guard. Ling Yao instantly clenched his fist, and without any hesitation, his body sprang up from the sofa like a spring. He stepped over the tea table and punched Ian's back!
"En!" Ian grunted, but he used his fastest speed to support Hai Xiaomin's back on both sides of the sofa. He did not use the force of the punch on her body.
"Ah!" Laecia was so scared that she covered her mouth and cried out involuntarily.
Ling Yao grabbed the back of Ian's collar and pulled him off Hai Xiaomin's body. He waved his arm and threw another punch. However, this punch was caught by Ian's fist, which was wrapped in a palm.
It seemed that the conflict between his body and Hai Xiaomin's body was about to break out and become familiar. That scene, Old Nazhi shouted, "Stop!"
The two of them were about to fight, but Ling Yao refused to stop. Ian dared to do such a thing to Hai Xiaomin again in front of him. Did he really think that he wouldn't dare to kill you with Old Nazhi's support?
The moment Ling Yao saw Ian kiss Hai Xiaomin, he completely lost his mind. No matter how many guesses she and Ian had in advance, no matter how mentally prepared they were, they still couldn't compare to the impact of Ian's action in front of him!
Ian kissed her. This was a very bad sign. Could it be that they had really acted so intimately these past few days?
Ling Yao could not accept that this was true!
"Qiao, let go! Let's see what you look like now! You're the older brother. You're fighting with your younger brother over a woman. This is ridiculous! " Old Nazhi grabbed his crutch and hit Ling Yao's waist with his crutch. From the sound, one could tell that the hit was not light.
However, Ling Yao did not move at all. He stared at Ian fiercely, as if he wanted to tear Ian into his stomach. Seeing this, Old Nazhi stood up and hit him with his staff again. His attack was even heavier.
"Grandpa Nazhi!" Laecia cried out in fear. She could not believe Old Nazhi's current actions.
"I told you to back off. Did you hear me?" Old Nazhi was furious. He held the staff with both hands and was about to hit again for the third time.
"No!" Hai Xiaomin could not stand it anymore. She stood up and went up to Old Nazhi. She stretched out both hands in an attempt to stop Old Nazhi's staff. Ling Yao's eyes turned cold. She could not take this staff!
He pushed Ian away and instantly hugged Hai Xiaomin. He turned around and used his back to block the staff.
The man's muffled groan sounded beside his ear. It was definitely not an illusion.
"Ling Yao!" Hai Xiaomin's voice was trembling. Her eyes were filled with tears. Why was he still protecting her at this time?
Ling Yao let go of her and was very agile. It was as if hugging her for another moment would dirty his clothes. He said coldly and fiercely, "Why did you rush out to cause trouble? Scram to the side!"
He did not spend so much effort to protect the child in his stomach, but he still dared to rush out at such a dangerous moment!
Hai Xiaomin was injured and choked on her words. He felt that it was the truth that she was a hindrance. She wanted to help him receive that staff, but in the end, nothing changed.
"Xiaomin, Ian is injured. Take him back to his room to rest." Old Nazhi said coldly.
Hai Xiaomin could see that Old Nazhi had shown his displeasure very clearly. If no one was willing to step back in this fight, then the situation would definitely become more intense. The most important thing right now was to separate them.2
She walked towards Ian. Ling Yao did not stop her. Old Nazhi had already said that he would not let her go. There would not be any result even if he forced her to stay. Unless he did not hesitate to bring people to rob her, the only thing that mattered was to find a way to deal with the old man.
Ian had been punched in the back by Ling Yao. If one were to really talk about it, it was definitely heavier than Ling Yao's three strikes. It was difficult for him to even stand up straight. Hai Xiaomin pursed her lips and lifted his arm to help him leave. Behind her, there was a light on her back. She did not need to look back to guess that Ling Yao was looking at her as if he wanted to eat her.
When they returned to Ian's room, Hai Xiaomin angrily took off his arm and pushed it away. She questioned, "Why did you do this?"
They had clearly been minding their own business these days, but today he suddenly acted abnormally. He said that he did not do it on purpose, and no one believed him!
Ian's body hit the door frame and he simply leaned on it. His gaze casually landed on the ground. "Grandfather doesn't want to see you and young master leave."
Is that so? So he was just trying his best to help Mr. Nazhi.
"You are really a loyal dog!" Hai Xiaomin sneered coldly. She did not want to waste any more time on him. She had to go back and see Ling Yao and Mr. Nazhi.
She turned around to leave, but Ian pulled her back. "Don't go."
"Let go!" Hai Xiaomin angrily shook him off.
"If you go, it will only make the situation worse." Ian's straightforward words made her freeze.
That's right, what could she help with if she rushed over? Ling Yao just thought she was in the way, and Old Nazhi also blamed it on her. If she went, it would only cause more trouble. If she was not there, Ling Yao would also be more rational.
Hai Xiaomin returned to the room and felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles. She did not know what was going on in the living room. Grandfather did not make things difficult for Ling Yao, right?
Since she could not wait any longer, Hai Xiaomin decided to go to the living room to take a look.
When she reached the place, she found that Ling Yao and Mr. Nazhi were no longer there. She asked the servants who were cleaning inside and found out that they had been gone for a while. It seemed that they had left unhappily. Before they left, she heard their quarrels. In the end, Ling Yao was the first to slam the door and leave.
Ling Yao left.
Hai Xiaomin was swept away by a sense of loss. This was good too. At least he was fine. She turned around and walked back muddleheaded.
As she passed by Ian's room, his door was not tightly shut. Hai Xiaomin heard the sound of voices coming from inside. She subconsciously looked inside and saw Ian's upper body naked. A female doctor was giving him medicine on his back.
The female doctor said, "Mr. Nazhi, thank you for your promotion. You are really young and promising."
Before Ian could respond, Hai Xiaomin pushed the door open and entered. Her eyes stared at the female doctor's stunned face without blinking. "It is you..."
