After coming out of the manor, it was almost time. Han Yi returned Yu Xiaoxuan directly to the set. Seeing that Yu Xiaoxuan had started filming, Han Yi did not leave, but found a place to sit down.
Yu Xiaoxuan’s scene was a fight scene, and her partner was a male actor. One of the scenes was that Yu Xiaoxuan bent her leg and hit the actor’s lower body.
Although it was just a performance, looking at Yu Xiaoxuan’s expression, Han Yi felt a pain between his legs, and secretly decided in his heart that he must be careful about this girl’s legs in the future.
“Han Yi, help me rehearse the lines.” Just after finishing a scene, Yu Xiaoxuan ran over, still holding the script in her hand.
Han Yi came back to his senses and said, “Okay.”
Just as he was facing the lines, he suddenly heard someone shouting to be careful. Han Yi looked up and saw one of the several boxes used for props piled up next to them, suddenly falling down.
Han Yi only had time to hold Yu Xiaoxuan in his arms, and then he was pressed to the ground by the box. Yu Xiaoxuan hid in Han Yi’s arms and clearly heard a muffled sound.
There was a rush at the scene. By the time the staff moved the box, Han Yi was already sweating profusely in pain. Yu Xiaoxuan had not yet recovered from the shock. When she saw Han Yi like this, she immediately panicked: “Han Yi, are you okay?”
Han Yi didn’t answer her. He was gasping for breath in pain. Yu Xiaoxuan was about to cry: “Han Yi, what’s wrong with you? You should say something.”
Han Yi opened his eyes and glanced at the tearful Yu Xiaoxuan. He wanted to give Yu Xiaoxuan a smile, but he couldn’t. He tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, “I’m fine, don’t cry.”
Yu Xiaoxuan didn’t want to cry at first, but a stream of warm blood slowly fell from Han Yi’s hair and dripped on his face. Yu Xiaoxuan reached out and wiped it. Looking at the bright red injured face, tears fell from her eyes without warning.
“Han Yi, don’t die.”
The medical staff arrived soon, and Yu Xiaoxuan followed him into the ambulance. Han Yi was lucky, the box hit his back, but because it was a prop box, it was empty, so his internal organs were not injured at all. He was hit on the head by the box and had a wound. The examination results showed that he had a slight concussion.
When Han Yi woke up, Yu Xiaoxuan was lying on Han Yi’s bedside, holding his hand, her eyes swollen like walnuts.
Han Yi smiled helplessly and wanted to withdraw his hand, but was afraid of waking her up, so he didn’t move and looked at Yu Xiaoxuan’s side face quietly. Han Yi’s eyes were full of tenderness.
“Han Yi, you’re awake.” Yu Xiaoxuan opened her eyes, met Han Yi’s gaze, and said in surprise.
Han Yi nodded, but felt dizzy and couldn’t help but close his eyes. Yu Xiaoxuan panicked, “Han Yi, what’s wrong with you? What’s wrong with you?”
Han Yi closed his eyes and waited for the dizziness to go away. After it passed, he opened his eyes and said, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”
“Who is worried about you?” Yu Xiaoxuan said hard.
Han Yi smiled and said, “Don’t worry, your eyes are swollen like walnuts.”
“My eyes were swollen because I didn’t sleep well. After all, you went to the hospital to save me. I can’t ignore you.” Yu Xiaoxuan explained.
Han Yi woke up. The doctor came over to check and found that there was no more problems with him. He could be discharged from the hospital in a few days. Yu Xiaoxuan wanted to buy Han Yi a bowl of porridge, but this was country F and there was no porridge nearby. For this reason Yu Xiaoxuan specially took a taxi to Chinatown for a bowl of porridge.
It was already an hour after Xiaoxuan came back, “Where have you been? Didn’t you say you went to buy food?”
When Han Yi saw Yu Xiaoxuan, he couldn’t help but ask, this was a foreign country, and Yu Xiaoxuan lived here. If she was not familiar with the local area, what should he do if he lost her?
There was a thin layer of sweat on Yu Xiaoxuan’s forehead, and she raised the porridge in her hand, “It was just to buy you something to eat.”
Han Yi had already smelled the familiar smell of porridge, and closed his mouth, but his eyes were filled with emotion and soft warmth.
“I have no strength now, you feed me.” Han Yi looked at the porridge in front of him without moving.
Yu Xiaoxuan glanced at Han Yi’s intact arm, “You hurt your head, not your hand.”
Han Yi didn’t care, watching Yu Xiaoxuan motionless. Yu Xiaoxuan looked at the bandage on Han Yi’s head, and finally she sat down by Han Yi’s bed and started feeding him resignedly, “Now, let’s eat.”
Han Yi took a sip of the porridge, “It tastes good.”
“Of course, I went to several stores to buy this.” Yu Xiaoxuan was a little proud.
Han Yi ate the bowl of porridge cleanly. Yu Xiaoxuan did not leave, sitting aside and looking at her phone. On her phone were the photos of when Han Yi took her to the manor today. Many of them were of her alone. One of them was a photo of Han Yi and her.
Han Yi held her shoulders, and she leaned in Han Yi’s arms, smiling sweetly at the camera. Suddenly, the scene of Han Yi holding her in his arms and blocking the box for her flashed in front of Yu Xiaoxuan’s eyes.
“Han Yi, why did you save me then?” Yu Xiaoxuan suddenly looked at Han Yi and asked seriously.
Han Yi smiled slightly, a small light flashed in his peach blossom eyes, and he smiled in self-mockery, “Rather than seeing you hurt and feeling sorry for you, it would be better for me to get hurt myself. At least my heart is still intact.”
Yu Xiaoxuan was suddenly speechless, looking at the self-deprecating smile on Han Yi’s lips, for some reason, her heart suddenly beat quickly, “Han Yi, do you like me?”
The words were blurted out, but as soon as the words fell, Yu Xiaoxuan realized what she had said, her face suddenly turning red.
“I just talked nonsense, don’t take it seriously.” Yu Xiaoxuan stood up hastily and wanted to run away.
Han Yi got up from the hospital bed, held her hand and refused to let her go, “Yu Xiaoxuan, I like you. Even I don’t know when I fell in love with you. Looking at your smile makes me happy. I will feel sad when I see you sad, and angry when I see you talking and laughing with other men, Yu Xiaoxuan, I just like you, do you like me?”
“Yu Xiaoxuan, do you like me?”
Only this sentence echoed in Yu Xiaoxuan’s ears. She turned her back to Han Yi, and Han Yi couldn’t see her expression clearly. Han Yi turned Yu Xiaoxuan’s body over, while Yu Xiaoxuan lowered her head.
“Yu Xiaoxuan, look up at me.” Han Yi coaxed gently.
Yu Xiaoxuan didn’t look up. Her face was burning and even the tips of her ears were red. She never thought that Han Yi would say that he liked her.
Seeing that Yu Xiaoxuan had no reaction, Han Yi’s heart cooled down little by little, and gradually became completely cold. He loosened his grip on Yu Xiaoxuan’s hand, and finally let it fall down, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t like me, just treat what I said just now as a joke.”
Yu Xiaoxuan kept her head down. After hearing this, she turned around and left. Han Yi’s eyes were cold, and he was really being sentimental.
“Han Yi, I don’t know if I like you now. Give me some time to think about it clearly.” When she walked to the door of the ward, Yu Xiaoxuan suddenly said something. When it reached Han Yi’s ears, he looked in the direction of the door of the ward, and all he saw was a corner of Yu Xiaoxuan’s clothes.
Han Yi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled like a child.
In the next few days, until Han Yi was discharged from the hospital, Yu Xiaoxuan did not appear in the ward. Han Yi couldn’t help but wonder if the girl had thought it over and found that she didn’t like him, so she ran away?
Thinking of this, Han Yi became more and more anxious. He was discharged from the hospital a day early and rushed directly to the set, but did not see Yu Xiaoxuan. After asking, he found out that something happened at Yu Xiaoxuan’s home two days ago and she had already rushed back to China.
Han Yi called Yu Xiaoxuan, but the phone was always turned off. He called Shen Qinglan again, “Sister-in-law, do you know where Xiaoxuan is?”
Shen Qinglan over there didn’t know what she said, Han Yi’s expression changed instantly, he hung up the phone, drove directly to the airport, and bought the earliest flight ticket back home.
When Han Yi hurried to Yu Xiaoxuan’s house, Shen Qinglan opened the door. “Sister-in-law, where is Xiaoxuan?”
Shen Qinglan pointed to Yu Xiaoxuan’s room. Han Yi walked over and knocked on the door, “Yu Xiaoxuan, it’s me, Han Yi, open the door.”
There was no movement inside.
“She locked herself in after coming back from the hospital yesterday.” Shen Qinglan stood behind him, looking at Yu Xiaoxuan’s closed door with a sad expression.
Han Yi only felt that his throat was very dry, “How could Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents suddenly…” He had just received the news that Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents passed away two days ago in a traffic accident. Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents died in a traffic accident. Xiaoxuan didn’t even get to see her parents for the last time.
“Car accident, truck driver was drunk driving.”
Two days ago, Yu Xiaoxuan’s father, Yu Wei, took his wife to the airport, intending to go to country F to see his daughter. As a result, the car was halfway through a traffic light, and suddenly a large truck came forward and hit Yu Wei’s car. The car was crushed by the large truck. Yu Wei and his wife died on the spot.
It was later discovered that the driver of the truck was drunk.
Han Yi had always known that Yu Xiaoxuan had a very happy family. Her parents were a loving couple and they loved their only daughter. The sudden death of her parents was an unbearable blow to Xiaoxuan.
Shen Qinglan handed a key to Han Yi, “Go in and see her.”
Han Yi took the key, opened the door and walked in.
During the ceremony in the room, Yu Xiaoxuan sat on the floor with an expressionless face, holding photos of her parents in her arms.
“Xiaoxuan.” Han Yi squatted down and called softly. Yu Xiaoxuan didn’t respond. Han Yi sat down next to her and leaned his back against the wall.
“Xiaoxuan, I understand how you feel. I have also lost the person I love most. You probably don’t know, but my mother left when I was twenty. She was angered to death because of my father’s mistress. I was studying abroad at the time. When I came back from abroad, I didn’t even see my mother for the last time. I asked my father, who was mad at my mother, and less than three months after her death, he registered his marriage with that mistress and even brought that woman into the house. In order to appease my grandfather and the others, my grandfather kicked my father out of the company and gave the company to me before he died. My father wanted to get the company, so he united the shareholders and senior management of the company. They wanted to drive me out of the company when I was only twenty-five years old.”
Han Yi told his story in a low voice, and he didn’t know how much Yu Xiaoxuan could listen.
“Actually, the relationship between my parents was very good at first. However, after I was born, I was born with deficiencies and was in poor health. In order to take care of me, my mother transferred most of her energy to me and ignored my father. Even I don’t even know when my father started cheating on her. I have lived in an unfortunate family since I was a child, and you are much luckier than me. At least your parents had a good relationship and loved you very much. But for me, those who loved me are gone, and only one is left. He is staring at me eagerly, ready to kick me out of the company and replace me for the sake of money, my biological father.”
Yu Xiaoxuan’s eyes moved.
“When I was twenty-five years old, because my father and the company’s top management wanted to remove me, I directly fired many people who were dissatisfied with me. At that time, the Han Group’s vitality was severely damaged and it almost couldn’t survive. I often stayed up all night for several consecutive nights, just to come up with a good way to save the company, but my father wanted to use my marriage. He secretly arranged a marriage for me behind my back, and the condition was that the other company’s 10% of the shares, haha, in the eyes of my father, my role is only as an exchange of money, and at that time, my father was not short of money. My grandfather gave the company to me but left him a large sum of money. The money was enough for him to spend the rest of his life comfortably, but even so, he still felt that it was not enough.”
Han Yi paused and said nothing. Thinking of this past event, even though he no longer had any feelings for his father, he still felt hurt in his heart.
