Chapter 1703: To Be Each Other's Only

~7 min read 1,213 words

The Xiaoshi in the audio was arrogant and vicious.

This made Jiang Motian feel he was so like a stranger...

She slowly turned her head, looking at the pale-faced man, feeling... as if she were meeting him for the first time.

Xiaoshi truly had the heart to kill Xie Wanyi at this moment!

His mind raced with a hundred thoughts, wondering what means he could use to protect himself and then counterattack Xie Wanyi.

But before he could think of one, Xie Wanyi put away his phone and warned coldly: "Next time, don't play such low-class tricks in front of me, like a clown!"

"You..."

Xiaoshi wanted to lash out.

But Jiang Motian gave him a deep look first.

With just this one glance, Xiaoshi was silenced.

Afterward, Jiang Motian said to Xie Wanyi: "The doctor wanted to ask about your recovery, but couldn't reach you, so they called me."

Facing Jiang Motian, Xie Wanyi's gaze became soft: "Mm, I understand."

"Then, please answer these few questions."

Jiang Motian repeated the questions given by the Hospital staff in a mechanical voice.

Xie Wanyi answered in great detail.

Having obtained the answers she wanted, Jiang Motian said very politely: "Many thanks."

"It is I who should thank you for coming here in person for my sake."

After saying this, Xie Wanyi unsurprisingly received a cold glare from Xiaoshi.

Jiang Motian had no heart for small talk at the moment, so she replied indifferently: "Then I won't disturb you any further."

"Mm, be careful on the way back."

Jiang Motian nodded and turned to leave.

Xiaoshi naturally had to follow.

However, before leaving, he still glared viciously at Xie Wanyi.

Today, he had underestimated Xie Wanyi!

He never expected that the dignified Youming would actually be capable of playing

schemes just like him!

Facing Xiaoshi's sinister gaze, Xie Wanyi had no reaction.

He only slowly raised the phone that held the recording...

He... is truly a bastard!!

Xiaoshi was so angry his face twisted.

But all he could do was clench his fists and quickly follow Jiang Motian.

Not long after the two left, Xiaolin poked his head in and walked inside.

He rubbed his hands together, then said with a look of guilt: "Sorry Boss, just now Miss Jiang insisted on barging in, I couldn't stop her, so..."

"It's fine, you did well."

Eh?

He was praised?!

Xiaolin found it incredible.

But who cares, as long as he wasn't punished!

Xiaolin secretly rejoiced.

But thinking back to the scene just now...

Xiaolin said with slight worry: "Miss Jiang didn't seem very happy."

"Discovering the true face of a green tea, one naturally wouldn't be happy."

"Then... after Xiaoshi goes back, will he continue to bewitch Miss Jiang?"

"He definitely will, but Jiang Motian has already begun to harbor doubts and won't trust him like before."

Xie Wanyi paused in his tone, then ordered Xiaolin: "Bring me the information on Xiaoshi that was investigated before to look at."

"Still looking? Haven't you already looked at it?"

"I have indeed looked at it, but I feel this person has problems; if his investigation file cannot answer this question, then... it must be investigated again."

Xie Wanyi's expression turned serious, his brows lightly furrowed.

Seeing this, Xiaolin dared not take it lightly and responded: "Then I will go get it for you right now."

After saying this, Xiaolin hurried off to find the files.

And Xie Wanyi walked to the window, his eyes deep.

On the other side—

Having walked out of the company, Jiang Motian's pace grew faster and faster.

Xiaoshi called out to her, but

it didn't make her stop.

Finally, Xiaoshi had no other choice, so he had to quicken his pace to run over and grab Jiang Motian's wrist.

Jiang Motian had no choice but to stop.

But she didn't speak either, just stared straight at Xiaoshi, as if the two were just meeting for the first time.

Such scrutiny made Xiaoshi feel very uneasy; he said in a pleading voice: "Tiantian, I was wrong, don't be like this."

"You were wrong?"

"Yes, I shouldn't have deliberately said those bastard things just because I was jealous!"

"Who are you jealous of? Xie Wanyi?"

"Yes, it's him!"

"But why are you jealous of him?"

Xiaoshi ground his teeth, then said with resentment and unwillingness: "He can receive your care and concern, shouldn't I be jealous of that?"

Jiang Motian frowned and asked in disbelief: "I didn't just take care of him, I took care of you too!"

"We have a past friendship, so it's reasonable for you to take care of me! But that Xie Wanyi, what right does he have!?"

"He... can also be considered my friend!"

Jiang Motian's words made Xiaoshi sway.

The way his eyes were wide open made it seem as if he had suffered an unacceptable blow.

"Xiaoshi, you..."

Before Jiang Motian could finish her sentence, her arm was suddenly grabbed by Xiaoshi.

He even shouted excitedly: "No!"

This agitated appearance startled Jiang Motian a little.

She blinked her eyes and asked: "What is not allowed?"

"You cannot treat him as a friend! My world only has you, so your world can only have me. We must be each other's only!!"

The expression on Xiaoshi's face gradually became ferocious.

Jiang Motian frowned tightly, her heart beating like a drum!

His state was very wrong!

Right now,

in this situation, Jiang Motian needed to get Xiaoshi to calm down first.

But just using verbal persuasion would certainly have no effect.

Then...

Jiang Motian suddenly let out an "ouch," then said uncomfortably: "You're hurting me!"

These words were very effective.

Xiaoshi seemed to wake up, and immediately let go of her hand.

Then he said with great annoyance: "I'm sorry Tiantian, I... I don't know what came over me..."

Jiang Motian rubbed her arm and looked at Xiaoshi quietly.

Xiaoshi's annoyance was real.

But his mania was also real.

At this moment, she must absolutely not provoke him again.

But Jiang Motian wanted to use this opportunity to do something.

Her eyes turned slightly, and Jiang Motian spoke gently: "You were wrong about what you just said."

"What?"

"We are not each other's only. I have my family, other friends, my career, and things I like to do. And you should have these things too."

"No, having you is enough for me!"

"It's far from enough. Only by seeing the outside world will you discover the splendor of life, which is not something a small person like me can give you!"

Jiang Motian's tone was sincere, and her gaze was open and honest.

Xiaoshi, however, was not affected.

He only turned pale, then asked with a trembling voice: "Tiantian, do you... not want me anymore?"

Jiang Motian immediately said: "I don't, I just hope you can be more mature."

"Am I not mature enough?"

Jiang Motian shook her head and evaluated him truthfully: "Like a little child."

This evaluation made Xiaoshi slowly lower his head, his expression dejected.

The next second, he felt his shoulder sink.

Jiang Motian raised her hand to pat his shoulder, then encouraged him: "Go out and venture, see the vast world outside, and only then

will you be able to mature and become someone I admire."
