Chapter 1690 - His Choice
Chapter 1690: His Choice
Xiao Ying then called Mo Tian.
The call went through and rang for a long time. Just as Xiao Ying thought that no one would answer, Mo Tian’s voice trailed over. “Miss Ying?”
“It’s me.” Xiao Ying rarely took the initiative to contact Long Ming and now she was contacting him through his confidant. She felt a little unnatural. “Mo Tian, what has your King been doing recently?”
“The King…”
Xiao Ying could hear that something was wrong and her nerves tensed immediately. “What’s wrong with him?”
“There was a malfunction on the way back from the plane that day. His Majesty was injured and has been hospitalized recently.”
A plane malfunction?
Xiao Ying was shocked. “Is he alright?”
“It’s not very serious. He’ll be discharged in two days.”
After ending the call with Mo Tian, Xiao Ying walked around the living room twice.
The nanny led Wan Bao into the living room. Seeing Xiao Ying walking around with a dark expression, the nanny asked, “Miss Ying, did something happen?”
“Nanny, I have to go to Burma.” Then, she looked at Wan Bao. “Baby, listen to Nanny at home. Mommy will be back soon.”
Wan Bao tilted her head and blinked her big eyes. “Is Mommy going to see Cool Uncle?”
“Yes, he’s sick. Mommy wants to go and take a look.”
“Mommy, take good care of him for me after you see him!”
Xiao Ying nodded. “Okay, Mommy will tell him that our Wan Bao misses him a lot.”
“Yes, yes. I really miss Cool Uncle, but Mommy, I only want him to be my cool uncle. I don’t want him to be a papa. Mommy won’t find me a new papa, right?”
Xiao Ying had told Wan Bao two nights ago that Tang En was not her biological father. Wan Bao had cried when she heard that. She was not curious who her biological father was and only wanted Tang En as her father.
Her feelings for Tang En were very deep and she was very reliant on him. It was impossible for her to call Long Ming ‘Dad’ within a short period of time.
Xiao Ying bought tickets for the earliest flight to Burma.
After a long flight, she arrived at her destination at four in the morning.
She went to the hotel first, put down her luggage, washed up, and changed her clothes before taking a taxi to the hospital where Long Ming was hospitalized.
After calling Mo Tian and finding out the ward Long Ming was in, Xiao Ying went there with a bouquet of flowers.
Long Ming stayed in the VIP ward on the top floor and there were bodyguards guarding the door.
After Mo Tian greeted her, the bodyguards did not stop Xiao Ying.
There was a living room, kitchen, and balcony in the ward. Xiao Ying entered the living room and walked to the door.
The door was not closed and Xiao Ying glanced inside.
Long Ming was leaning against the head of the bed, a bandage wrapped around his forehead. He was not the only one in the room. Lou Lan was also there.
Lou Lan had brought a nutritious breakfast over and was scooping porridge for him.
Perhaps it was because she had heard footsteps that Lou Lan turned to look at the door.
Seeing Xiao Ying carrying a bouquet of flowers, Lou Lan frowned.
Long Ming, who was lying on the bed, also saw Xiao Ying. There was no expression on his cold and dark face and his eyes were cold. He exuded a dark and wild aura from head to toe, like a demon from hell.
Xiao Ying tightened her hold on the bouquet of flowers.
She did not know if she was hallucinating, but the way he looked at her now was completely different from the night before he left.
At this moment, she could not see any warmth in his eyes.
Xiao Ying walked into the room, ignoring Lou Lan’s unhappy gaze. Once she made a decision, she would be fearless.
She had agreed to Lou Lan’s request because she did not want to have anything to do with Long Ming.
But it was different now. She had changed her mind.
“I heard from Mo Tian that you’re injured. Is it serious?” Xiao Ying walked over and placed the flowers on the cabinet.
Seeing that Lou Lan had scooped the porridge, she smiled and took the bowl. “Miss Lou, let me feed him!”
Lou Lan’s expression changed when he saw Xiao Ying treating herself as his wife.
Wasn’t this vixen being too shameless?
She had promised her that she would not come here or meet Long Ming, but now he had come in so blatantly and had even taken the bowl of porridge away!
Xiao Ying sat by the bed, staring at Long Ming’s cold expression. “Can you eat it yourself, or should I feed you?”
Long Ming glanced at the Lou Lan. “Come here.”
Xiao Ying was stunned for a moment before she passed the bowl to Lou Lan.
Seeing that Xiao Ying was not the least bit uncomfortable, Lou Lan could not help but scoff in his heart. This woman’s skin was really as thick as a city wall!
After Lou Lan finished feeding Long Ming breakfast, she glanced at Xiao Ying, who was sitting on the sofa and looking at her phone. She walked over and said to her, “Miss Tang, let’s go out and talk!”
Xiao Ying looked at Long Ming, who was on the bed. Long Ming had started to look down at his documents after eating. His face was expressionless, exuding a coldness that kept people away.
Xiao Ying felt that something was wrong with him.
But she did not ask him anything.
She followed Lou Lan to a deserted place in the corridor.
Lou Lan turned around, raised her hand, and swung it at Xiao Ying’s face.
Xiao Ying grabbed Lou Lan’s wrist quickly, her pretty face slowly turning cold. “Miss Lou, you know that Long Ming likes my face and yet, you still dare to try your luck. Aren’t you afraid that he will create trouble for you?”
Hearing Xiao Ying’s words, Lou Lan was even angrier.
“Why are you so cheap? Don’t you know that I’m Long Ming’s fiancée?” Lou Lan retracted her hand from Xiao Ying’s. Through the short confrontation just now, she realized that Xiao Ying was not a weak woman. If there was a conflict, she would not be able to gain any advantage.
Xiao Ying’s expression did not change. “I’ll leave if Long Ming tells me to.”
Lou Lan gritted her teeth and nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell him now.”
After Lou Lan left, Xiao Ying leaned against the wall, frowning slightly.
Long Ming was strangely cold. The glaring diamond ring between Lou Lan’s fingers… What did this mean?
After Long Ming returned, he had not cancelled the engagement with Lou Lan.
However, with her understanding of Long Ming, he would not be entangled with Lou Lan after making a promise to her.
There must be something she did not know about!
Xiao Ying went to the washroom to touch up her makeup. Even if Long Ming was cold to her for no reason, she could not let herself be like an abandoned woman. No matter what, she had to be pretty.
Xiao Ying returned to the ward.
Lou Lan was sitting by the bed, talking to Long Ming. When he saw Xiao Ying coming over, a victorious smile appeared on her face.
“Miss Tang, you’re not welcome here. Please leave.”
Xiao Ying ignored Lou Lan’s words and looked at Long Ming. Long Ming glanced at Xiao Ying, his lips moving slightly. “Why are you here? I didn’t call you because I thought you knew your place.”
Xiao Ying stared at Long Ming for a few seconds. “Did you choose Lou Lan?”
Lou Lan glanced at Xiao Ying unhappily. What was she saying? Long Ming’s fiancée was her, alright?
A mistress was being so arrogant.
Long Ming pursed his lips. “It’s obvious whom I chose, isn’t it?”
