Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 764: Chapter 781 Past (1)

Xi Xiaoyi snapped out of her daze, and if Lin Xi hadn’t rubbed her head, she would still be in a daze.

After all, that scene just now was completely unexpected for her.

Although she knew that Lin Xi could fight, her mind still couldn’t process such a decisive action.

At this moment, watching Lin Xi hold the sleeping baby, she said to him, "Sister Xi, let’s go inside!"

Xi Xiaoyi quickly nodded; even though she had a lot to say to Lin Xi right now, the hallway wasn’t very convenient, so it wasn’t too late to talk inside.

Besides, the baby was still here.

Even if she was sound asleep and couldn’t hear their conversation, she didn’t want to discuss certain matters in front of the baby.

After taking the key out of her bag and unlocking the door, the three of them walked into the room.

Xi Xiaoyi took the baby from Lin Xi’s hands and carried her into her own little room.

At the same time, she went to the bathroom to wet a towel with hot water, wrung it dry, and wiped the dirt off the baby.

During this process, Lin Xi just watched, not saying anything, only silently standing behind Xi Xiaoyi.

At this moment, he also felt how difficult being a mother was, especially being a single mother, not only having to care for the child but also being the breadwinner.

It could be said, acting as both mom and dad!

After cleaning the baby thoroughly, she tucked her in.

After turning off the light and walking out of the room, she realized that Lin Xi had been standing at the door all along and had forgotten he was there.

But it was just as well he hadn’t left, as she had some things she wanted to clarify with Lin Xi!

The two of them went to the living room and sat down.

Xi Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment before finding her resolve and began, "The man just now is Shui Qianze, my ex-boyfriend, and the only ex-boyfriend I’ve ever had."

"He’s also the father of the baby!"

"But since we broke up in college, we haven’t been in contact, do you believe me?"

Lin Xi’s expression didn’t change, and he nodded.

There was no reason to doubt what she said, and more importantly, he had heard everything clearly at the stairway just now.

Seeing that Lin Xi neither rejected nor showed other expressions, Xi Xiaoyi felt much better, her mind easing considerably.

She continued, "Since breaking up after college, there’s no chance we would ever get back together!"

"He’s my past, just a piece of my experience, but the past is the past, it can never change!"

"I only have one question for you now, do you despise me, or look down on me?"

This was what she cared about the most, because if there was always a barrier in her heart, even if they were together in the future, they wouldn’t be truly happy and joyful.

Lin Xi didn’t directly answer whether he did but instead first reached out a hand, placing it on Xi Xiaoyi’s face.

After a moment, he finally said, "Everyone has a past, but as you said just now, the past is the past, and we can’t deny a person’s current life because of it!"

"So, I’ve never despised you nor looked down on you from the beginning, if I did, I wouldn’t have engaged with you, let alone want to make you mine!"

"Sister Xi, from the day we met, you were destined to be mine for life!"

Listening to Lin Xi’s words, Xi Xiaoyi was first moved, her whole heart nearly melted, but when she heard the last sentence, she was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask,

"Since the day we met, I was destined to be yours?"

"How can you be so thick-skinned?"

"Where does your confidence come from?"

The heart that was about to melt suddenly froze up again, and she playfully said angrily, "You little rascal, you aren’t mine yet!"

"As for the future, that’s still uncertain!"

"Don’t be overly confident, after all, those chasing after me, are counted in hundreds!"

She slapped away Lin Xi’s hand, this rascal kept taking advantage of her daze moments ago, either touching her head or face, taking full advantage!

If she hadn’t just come to her senses now, who knows, he might have taken it further.

Lin Xi laughed, "Sister Xi, let’s just watch and see!"

In reality, by any standard, Xi Xiaoyi had already developed feelings for Lin Xi, she just didn’t want to admit it so quickly, and certainly didn’t want to give in to this rascal so soon!

Besides, they had only met three times in total, and she was several years older than Lin Xi and even had a child!

So she wanted to take it slow, feeling it was too fast and she couldn’t fully adapt at heart.

But right now there was one thing she had to worry about, and that was just in the hallway, Lin Xi had kicked Shui Qianze into the elevator, and Shui Qianze had also said earlier that he would take the baby away from her side tomorrow morning.

This was something she absolutely could not allow!

However, she also knew the kind of person Shui Qianze was and that he surely had some back up for making such a statement!

Additionally, the old man of the family Shui Qianze married into had considerable influence in Chuzhou City, and several of the people indebted to him were bigwigs.

Some of these bigwigs’ current statuses and positions were even more formidable than the old man’s.

These kinds of people were simply beyond her reach, and she also believed were beyond Lin Xi’s reach too.

No matter how well you could fight or make waves, could you surpass guns, could you surpass greater power?

In this day and age, no matter how wealthy you are, it only takes a few words for those with power to make you submit.

After all, the principle that civilians couldn’t fight with officials had been an immutable rule through the ages!

"What are you worried about?" Lin Xi asked upon seeing Xi Xiaoyi’s face suddenly change.

Xi Xiaoyi let out a deep sigh, "Tomorrow morning, the baby and I, before Shui Qianze gets here, have to leave here first."

"It’s best to leave Chuzhou City!"

"Also, you must not come back again, and keep a low profile as well, don’t let Shui Qianze discover you, or it’ll be terrible!"

Seeing that this was Xi Xiaoyi’s worry, Lin Xi couldn’t help but chuckle, shaking his head, saying, "Sister Xi, there’s no need for you to worry, just leave this matter to me!"

"Also, I’ve already told him, I’ll be waiting here for him tomorrow!"

Seeing Lin Xi’s determined expression, Xi Xiaoyi became even more anxious and went on to tell Lin Xi everything about Shui Qianze and the stakes involved!

"No wonder he dared to be so arrogant, turns out he has backing!" Lin Xi said.

But so what!

He asked, "Sister Xi, do you trust me?"

Xi Xiaoyi looked at Lin Xi’s earnest expression, nodded, and said, "Of course I trust you!"

Lin Xi smiled, "Then it’s settled, just leave tomorrow’s matters to me!"

"I’ll handle it well, and you needn’t worry about the baby, she’s yours, no one can take her away!"

Seeing Lin Xi like this, Xi Xiaoyi felt a sliver of hope in her heart, after all, every time Lin Xi appeared, he always performed extraordinarily!

Maybe, he truly had a way?

Just then, the lights in the hall flickered, followed by a ’zzzzzz’ sound, and the brightly lit hall suddenly plunged into darkness!

No doubt, the light bulb had blown!

Xi Xiaoyi’s voice carried a hint of anxiety and fear as she asked, "Lin Xi, where are you?"

"Here!" Lin Xi stepped forward to hold Xi Xiaoyi’s hand, unable to resist teasing, "So Sister Xi is afraid of the dark?"

"Who’s afraid? How could I be scared?" she said loudly, puffing out her chest.

But holding her hand, Lin Xi could clearly feel her trembling, though he didn’t expose her, instead he asked, "Sister Yi, do you have any spare light bulbs in your home?"
