Chapter 1758: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (1)
“Ximen Chang went to look for Tang En. I heard that the villa was already on fire when he found Tang En.”
“Ximen Chang rushed into the fire, but Tang En refused to come out, so he stayed there with him.”
Long Ming pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Even if Tang En was still alive, he would have to spend the rest of his life in jail after what he had done.
However, he had gotten off too easily by dying like that!
Long Ming looked at Mo Tian and said with a cold expression, “Where’s my daughter?”
“The Princess has already gone to school for lessons. Recently, she has been staying at the Duke’s palace and Miss Ying has been sending her to school and picking her up everyday.”
Long Ming’s expression darkened even more.
Seeing this, Mo Tian thought that Long Ming still did not like them mentioning Xiao Ying, so he added, “The little Princess came to see the Your Majesty yesterday and even called Your Majesty ‘Daddy’.”
Mo Tian thought that Long Ming would be happy to hear this news. In the end, his expression only improved slightly, but it was still terrible.
“Your Majesty, have a good rest. I’ll go and settle some matters.”
Long Ming wanted to ask about that woman, but it seemed like she was doing well in the Duke’s palace.
After Ximen Jin settled Ximen Chang and Tang En’s funeral, he quickly dealt with the traitors of the Ximen family.
He released all of the elders’ relatives and also passed the antidote from the Ximen family’s secret room.
Before Ximen Chang went to find Tang En, he had left a letter for Ximen Jin.
The letter instructed him to take good care of the Ximen family and not to go astray.
Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Ximen Jin went to Burma after settling their funeral.
After arriving in Burma, Ximen Jin called Xiao Ying.
They arranged to meet at a cafe.
When Xiao Ying received Ximen Jin’s call, she was shopping at the mall with Long Mei and Wan Bao.
The cafe was not far from the mall. After Xiao Ying entered the cafe, Long Mei continued to shop with Wan Bao. Now, she did not want to look at that person anymore.
When Xiao Ying arrived at the cafe, Ximen Jin had not arrived yet.
But before long, Ximen Jin came.
Ximen Jin was wearing a black knee-length coat. His hair was neat and stylish, and his arrogant face had the steadiness of the head of a family.
Seeing Xiao Ying, Ximen Jin strode over.
Xiao Ying had already received news of Tang En and Ximen Chang being burned to death by the fire a few days ago.
She sighed in her heart.
Ximen Jin did not beat around the bush and took out a silver key from his pocket.
“My brother’s bodyguard found this on the tree at the entrance of the burning villa. Perhaps, this is the key to opening your bracelet. Take it and have a go.”
Xiao Ying took the keys.
A moment later, the bracelet around her wrist opened with a soft sound.
Xiao Ying raised her hand and held her forehead, her heart feeling heavy and miserable.
“Actually… I know that he never wanted me to die… He felt that I was his only warmth and wanted to keep me… But he was too stubborn.”
Ximen Jin looked at the depressed Xiao Ying. “I’m relieved that the key could open the bracelet. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
Xiao Ying nodded, not saying anything.
Ximen Jin walked out of the cafe and after a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the mall.
Long Mei was coming out of the mall with Wan Bao. She had just received Xiao Ying’s message that Ximen Jin had left.
Wan Bao was running in front, a bright smile on her pretty face. She was not looking at the path in front and suddenly bumped into Ximen Jin’s long legs.
“Ah…”
Wan Bao covered her forehead and looked up at the person she had bumped into.
“Handsome Uncle, I’m sorry for accidentally bumping into you.”
Ximen Jin looked at the fair and tender little girl by his legs, a smile appearing on his arrogant face.
He squatted down and caressed the girl’s head. “Uncle is fine, but did you hurt yourself?”
“No!” The little girl said and turned to look at Long Mei who was not too far away. “Auntie, Auntie, there’s a handsome uncle here!”
Wan Bao seemed to have thought of something and blinked her big eyes. “Handsome Uncle, do you have a girlfriend? My aunt doesn’t have a boyfriend. What do you think of her?”
Looking at the mischievous little girl, Ximen Jin’s lips curled up in a smile. He was about to say something when Long Mei walked over. “Wan Bao, you’re trying to matchmake Auntie again. Auntie doesn’t like this type of men now. If you meet someone more handsome in the future, introduce him to me!”
Wan Bao did not know about the grudges between Long Mei and Ximen Jin. She blinked her big eyes and looked curious. “But I think this uncle is very handsome. If Auntie doesn’t like him, then wait for me to grow up!”
Long Mei pinched the little girl’s soft face lovingly. “There are many bad people in this world. You can’t talk to people just because they’re handsome. You might be deceived.”
When Ximen Jin heard Long Mei’s words, he felt his throat turn hoarse and his heart burn.
Recently, the Ximen family had been very busy and he had not had much time to think about anything else. However, even if he only had one or two hours of rest, he would still think of her when he closed his eyes.
“Mei’er…” He called her hoarsely.
Long Ying interrupted him coldly, “Young Master Ximen, we’re not close. Please call me Miss Long.”
Really?
Were they not close?
They had clearly once been intimate lovers. She would smile sweetly at him, blush at him, and speak softly to him… But because of his mistake, they became the most familiar strangers.
He had chosen this path.
He had made a mistake and had to bear the consequences.
Long Mei did not want to say anything more to Ximen Jin. She pulled Wan Bao into her arms and said softly, “Let’s go find your mommy!”
Wan Bao nodded.
Long Mei carried Wan Bao into the cafe and Wan Bao leaned on Long Mei’s shoulder.
She blinked her large eyes at Ximen Jin, who was standing on the spot. She pouted. “Auntie, don’t you like Handsome Uncle? He looks a little sad!”
Long Mei did not turn back to look at Ximen Jin. “Auntie doesn’t like him. Wan Bao, don’t mention him in the future.”
Wan Bao nodded. “Alright!”
That afternoon.
Xiao Ying and Long Mei brought Wan Bao to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Xiao Ying passed Wan Bao to Long Mei. “Mei’er, I won’t go up.”
“Ah?” Long Mei blinked and said softly, “Sister-in-law, Mo Tian called and said that my brother is awake. Aren’t you going to see him?”
Xiao Ying lowered her long eyelashes and said softly, “No, he doesn’t want to see me.”
“Sister-in-law, I heard from Mo Tian that the blood clot in my brother’s brain should dissipate very soon. When he recovers, you should ignore him too.”
Xiao Ying looked at Long Mei, who was completely on her side now, and felt a warm feeling in her heart. “Take Wan Bao up quickly!”
Long Mei brought Wan Bao to the ward.
Seeing that Long Ming was awake, Wan Bao ran over excitedly. “Daddy!”
