Chapter 1738: His Change

Xiao Ying sat up from the bed.

She seemed to have hooked on something and she felt a sting on the back of her hand.

She looked sideways and saw that the needle on the back of her hand had fallen off and blood was flowing out.

Xiao Ying did not care, merely staring at the ceiling above her.

She did not know how long she had been asleep for, but the heart-wrenching pain in her dream was so clear.

Cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

It had just been a nightmare.

But the scene in her dream had been so real and cruel.

He had held her hand, and she had stabbed in his heart. Then, he had been surrounded by the bodyguards arranged by Tang En.

Something must have happened.

How was he?

Was he dead or alive?

Xiao Ying lifted the blanket and was about to get off the bed when the door was pushed open.

The servant walked in and was surprised to see Xiao Ying awake. “Miss, you’re awake? You’ve been unconscious for nearly half a month. You had a high fever at first, but you didn’t wake up even after your fever subsided. Even the doctor didn’t know what happened to you. Young Master has been so anxious recently…”

She had been unconscious for half a month?

No wonder she felt weak all over. She felt weak after taking a few steps.

“Where is he?” Xiao Ying asked hoarsely.

“Young Master? He went out to do something and might only be back at night.”

Xiao Ying still wanted to ask something, but her body felt weak and she could only lie back on the bed.

After eating some food, she stared out of the window blankly. It seemed like Tang En had brought her back to the castle from the island.

Xiao Ying rested for the entire afternoon. At night, Tang En came to visit Xiao Ying.

During the time Xiao Ying was unconscious, Tang En was worried and had lost some weight. His slender eyes were filled with joy when he saw Xiao Ying awake.

“Junior, you’re finally awake.”

Xiao Ying sat up on the bed, looking at Tang En coldly. “What did you do to him?”

Seeing Xiao Ying ask about Long Ming the moment she woke up, a trace of darkness flashed past Tang En’s eyes. “Do you think I’ll tell you?”

Originally, Tang En wanted Long Ming to be buried in the desert. The people he sent had a big fight with Long Ming, who had stabbed his own heart. Long Ming was indeed someone who had experienced everything, and many people were unable to subdue him. Later, Long Ming’s reinforcements arrived and although Long Ming was injured, he had still been saved.

However…

Thinking of Long Ming’s current situation, a cold smile appeared on Tang En’s lips.

Even the heavens were helping him.

Xiao Ying looked at Tang En’s unpredictable expression and suddenly leaned forward, grabbing his collar with both hands like an angry beast. “What happened to him?”

Tang En slowly pulled Xiao Ying’s hands away and stood up from the bed. “If you want to know how he is, come with me.”

Xiao Ying pushed herself up and got off the bed.

Tang En brought Xiao Ying to the study. He turned on the projection and played a video.

The video should have been taken recently. Long Ming still had bandages wrapped around his forehead and he was dressed in black as he came out of the hospital, making him look even colder.

Especially that pair of eyes. They were dark, ruthless, and sharp, making people not dare to look at them directly.

Seeing that he was still alive, Xiao Ying’s tightened heart relaxed slightly. However, the next second, Tang En’s words made her heart tighten again.

“Don’t you realize that Long Ming is different from before?”

The video was very short, only about ten seconds, but Long Ming gave off an even wilder and colder feeling.

Tang En looked at Xiao Ying, who furrowed her eyebrows tightly. He pursed his lips and said calmly, “Apart from being stabbed in the Sahara Desert, he was also injured in his head when he fought with my bodyguards. He lost a portion of his memories. Now, his memories are from the battle in the forest.”

Tang En looked at Xiao Ying’s pale face and said word by word ruthlessly, “I’m sure you know better than me about that battle. He found out about your identity and escaped death. He hates you to the core.”

Xiao Ying’s body swayed unsteadily.

“He doesn’t remember the warm times he had with you, nor does he remember you having a daughter with him. Now, he only has a bone-deep hatred for you!”

“Now, whenever someone mentions Xiao Ying in front of him, he flies into a rage.”

Xiao Ying covered her mouth, the blood draining from her face. She shook her head. “No, that’s impossible.”

Tang En looked at Xiao Ying, who looked like she had suffered a huge blow. He walked in front of her, his fingers pinching her chin. “Junior, as long as you say the word, I can go to the hospital to fetch Wan Bao. After you register our marriage, I’ll feed Wan Bao the last antidote. Then, our family of three can live happily together like before.”

Before Tang En could finish speaking, Xiao Ying slapped him hard.

Tang En could not dodge in time and was slapped.

However, he was not angry. On the contrary, the angrier Xiao Ying was, the more panicked and sad she was inwardly.

“Junior, just this once.”

Xiao Ying ignored Tang En’s words and stared at the video on the screen with red eyes.

From Long Ming’s gaze and aura, he did seem to have returned to the time when he was full of hatred.

The last thing she wanted was to see him like this!

She had spent so much effort to get his forgiveness. But now, all of her efforts had gone to waste!

…

Xiao Ying lay in bed for three days.

She did not eat nor drink. She did not touch any of the food the servants gave her.

The maid was worried that Xiao Ying’s body would not be able to take it, so she reported it to Tang En. Tang En simply said to let her be.

Xiao Ying was depressed for three days. She really wanted to give up on life like this. However, if she died, what would happen to Wan Bao? What would happen to Long Ming, who was living in hatred? And Tang En seemed like he had a bigger plan. He had planted spies around Long Ming. He might take advantage of Long Ming’s hatred and try to swallow Burma…

Thinking of the responsibility on her shoulders, Xiao Ying had no choice but to pull herself together.

When the servant brought food over again, Xiao Ying did not ignore it.

After eating, she went to the bathroom to take a shower. She changed into clean clothes, put on some light makeup, and went downstairs.

The maid was surprised to see Xiao Ying coming out. “Miss, you’ve finally thought it through?”

Xiao Ying hummed faintly. “Where’s your Young Master?”

“Young Master went out to do something. If Miss wants to see him, you should be able to see him at dinner time.”

Xiao Ying hummed and under the bodyguards’ surveillance, she went to the garden to bask in the sun.

In the evening, the maid came to call Xiao Ying for dinner. Xiao Ying looked up. “Is your Young Master back?”

“Yes.”

When Xiao Ying walked to the dining room, Tang En had indeed returned. He was sitting at the dining table and when he saw Xiao Ying coming over, he glanced at her face.
