Chapter 1288: I’m Begging You, Please Marry Her

General s.h.i.+ was calling him.

Xuan Ying’s frantic heart finally calmed down. Mu Mu was safe.

As long as he was still here, Mu Mu was safe.

Xuan Ying picked up the call. “h.e.l.lo, General s.h.i.+.”

“Silver Mask King,” General s.h.i.+’s voice floated over from the other end of the call. “Let me apologize first. Yes, I took your daughter Mu Mu away, but let me promise you, I will never harm her. I’ll bring her up like she was my own.”

Xuan Ying’s thin lips slowly curved upwards and said, “General s.h.i.+, I’m sorry to have caused you trouble. What can I do to make it up to you?”

“Silver Mask King, I heard that my daughter Xiaoxiao is in your hands. Ask your men to send Xiaoxiao back to me first. I’ll have a Master look at her. There’s an auspicious date in five days and you can get married to Xiaoxiao then.”

Xuan Ying was expressionless but his aura was dark and dangerous.

“General s.h.i.+, you’re the first person who has dared to threaten my people like that.”

“Hahaha, Silver Mask King, please don’t scare me like that. My hand might slip and accidentally harm your daughter, and then there’ll be trouble.”

A frown was on his face as Xuan Ying said, “I’ll get someone to send s.h.i.+ Xiaoxiao back first. As for the wedding, I need a day to think about it.”

“Alright,” General s.h.i.+ said as he hung up.

Red-hot anger washed over him as he tightened the grip around his phone. At this moment, a pair of hurried footsteps came from behind him. “Mu Mu, where’s my Mu Mu?”

Xia Ling had rushed over.

She had just reached the gates of A University when the kindergarten teacher had called to inform her that Mu Mu was missing. It was as though someone had reached out from the darkness and pushed her off the cliff and into the abyss.

Mu Mu was her everything.

Xuan Ying quickly turned around and saw Feng Lingxue running over, her small face pale and streaked with tears.

“Mu Mu… Mu Mu…”

Her eyes were frantic and darting around as she looked for even a trace of Mu Mu.

Her hands were freezing and she was s.h.i.+vering with cold.

“Lingling.” Xuan Ying walked up to her and pulled her s.h.i.+vering body into his embrace. He pressed his soft lips against her cold face and kissed her. He wondered how she had survived these three years.

How much hards.h.i.+p must she have gone through? She must have struggled so much and been in so much pain. She looked so weak now.

“Let go of me, I want to go look for Mu Mu! My Mu Mu! Why can’t you just let her go? Why can’t you just let us go? What did we ever do wrong?”

Xia Ling struggled violently in his arms as warm tears started streaming down her cheeks. She wanted Mu Mu. She wanted to go find Mu Mu.

“Lingling, don’t be scared. I will save Mu Mu. I will protect the two of you!”

At this moment, Xia Ling’s legs weakened and she fainted.

Xia Ling opened her eyes slowly and she stared in confusion at the chandelier above her. This room felt vaguely familiar. It was Xuan Ying’s room.

Xuan Ying had brought her back to the Snow Mountain Residence.

So it hadn’t been a dream.

It was real.

Mu Mu was missing again.

Xia Ling stayed like that, staring at the ceiling for a long time as hot tears rolled down her cheek. She despaired silently.

After her life of hards.h.i.+ps and suffering, all she wanted was a simple life. But all the heavens did was laugh at her day after day.

How many times did she have to go through such painful separation and heartbreak?

Xia Ling slowly sat up and got off the bed.

She walked out of the door and over to the study room. The door was ajar and Ah Zhou was speaking inside.

“Master, Little Miss is in General s.h.i.+’s hands and he wants to use that to force you to marry s.h.i.+ Xiaoxiao. What do you plan to do? Poor Miss Mu Mu. She hasn’t had a good life ever since she came into this world. And Master, since she is your biological daughterー”

Before Ah Zhou could even finish his sentence, the door burst open.

Xuan Ying lifted his eyes to look. Xia Ling was standing at the side of the door, her bright, watery eyes looking in horror at him.

F*ck, she heard him!

Xuan Ying’s heart was pounding. He quickly walked over to her and said, “Lingling, let me explain…”

Xia Ling took a step back for every single one he took towards her.

She continued looking at him in horror, as though she was looking at a devil.

This man was worse than any devil. He was terrifying. She hated him, detested him. All she wanted to do was to run away.

Mu Mu was his daughter.

So he was the man from three years ago.

“Lingling, I…” Xuan Ying reached out, wanting to embrace her.

She had a loose white dress on and looked really simple. All he wanted was to hug her.

But Xia Ling continued backing away instinctively and shrieked, “Don’t touch me!”

Xuan Ying froze.

His legs felt as though they weighed tons and he couldn’t take a single step forward.

As Xia Ling looked at him with her eyes wide, her face was streaked with tears as she shook her head in disbelief. “I forgot to mention this but I’ve already regained my memories.”

I’ve already regained my memories…

This sentence stirred up various emotions in him as his pupils contracted.

Xia Ling reached out shakily and cradled the mask on his face before taking it off slowly.

Although he could have stopped her, he didn’t. He let her remove her mask, revealing his scarred face.

With a loud thud, the mask dropped onto the floor.

Xia Ling looked at him, laughing and crying like a madwoman.

She covered her face with both her hands and let her tears leak out from between her fingers.

Looking at her pained expression, Xuan Ying’s eyes reddened as well. He had no idea what to say, and could only repeat, “Lingling, I’m so sorry, I’m really so sorry..”

‘Sorry’ really was about the most useless word in the world.

As Xia Ling sniffed through her small red nose, she looked at him with watery eyes. A sob escaped her lips. “It’s fine, I’ve forgiven you.”

She had forgiven him?

Xuan Ying didn’t feel happy at all. Instead, he felt his heart sink lower and lower.

And he was right. She was not done. “Whatever happened in the past… I don’t want to talk about it anymore. It doesn’t matter who was right and who was wrong. I don’t even want to recall the past. I’m sure that you were suffering as well when you were tormenting me.

“You were the man from three years ago and Mu Mu is your daughter. You’re the only person I’ve slept with my entire life.

“But we’re done. From this moment on, we’re over. I hope I’ll be able to find a man I love, who loves me back in the future. He doesn’t need to be amazing. As long as he’s warm and stays by my side, I’ll be able to …slowly heal these wounds from the past…

“You don’t have to talk about the kind of life Mu Mu and I led this past three years, because I know that better than anyone else. We’ve finally settled down, but all this was destroyed… because of you, Xuan Ying. How could I possibly not hate you?

“I’m begging you, please… Please marry s.h.i.+ Xiaoxiao.”
