“Then what?” Yu Xiaoxuan spoke, her voice hoarse.
Han Yi’s eyes were filled with joy, “Then I gave my so-called fiancée a good show, letting her see me kissing other women on the spot. It even made the entertainment headlines of newspapers and magazines, and slapped her in the face on the spot. Her family naturally came into contact, and my nickname came from that time.”
“Do you know what happened to my father later? I designed his true love to become addicted to gambling and she lost all his money and the property left to him, which means that they can only live by my face.”
“Yu Xiaoxuan, I am a cold-blooded person. Since the death of my grandfather and mother, there is no so-called family affection in my heart. I hated this world and thought about ruining it all every moment, until you appeared.”
“I don’t know when I fell in love with you. When we first met, you and sister-in-law went on a blind date. Hengyi and I were sitting not far from you. At that time, our attention was on my sister-in-law, and we didn’t pay much attention to your existence. I didn’t even remember what you looked like later. She just called me and ask me to reserve a spot for the audition. That’s when I paid attention to you.”
“To be honest, you are not my type. Your face is not pretty enough, your body is not hot enough, and you even have a temper. It’s not bad. You’re just a little wild cat with claws. You’re a little stupid and don’t even know when you’re being tricked.”
“I paid attention to you from time to time. And I didn’t even know when I lost my own heart. Wait, you were already living here when I found out.” Han Yi said this, taking Yu Xiaoxuan’s hand and placing it against his chest, letting Yu Xiaoxuan feel the beating of his heart.
“Yu Xiaoxuan, I have no relatives in this world, so do you want to be my relative? I know that my past is not clean enough. If I had known that one day I would fall in love with you, then I would definitely have kept myself as clean as jade. I can’t change the past. In the future, I will only have you as my woman. I will not let my mother’s tragedy happen to you. I will pray for your parents and cry with you, laugh with you, and give you everything you want. Happiness until the last moment of life, so, Yu Xiaoxuan, are you willing to let me be your relative and stay with you for the rest of your life?”
Han Yi’s voice was gentle and low, but serious.
“Will you really stay with me forever?” After a long time, Yu Xiaoxuan said.
“Yes.” Han Yi said with certainty.
“Han Yi, my parents are gone, and I have nothing now.” Yu Xiaoxuan cried. This was the first time in so many days. After returning from the hospital, she didn’t even have the strength to cry.
Han Yi held Yu Xiaoxuan in his arms and patted her back gently, “No, you still have me. I will stay with you from now on and will never leave you. I will give you a home. We will have a child, and we will make his/her life perfect.”
Yu Xiaoxuan grabbed the clothes on Han Yi’s chest and cried loudly. Shen Qinglan stood at the door, looking at the two people hugging each other for warmth, and turned to leave.
The funeral of Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents was scheduled for three days later. During these three days, Han Yi had been staying with Yu Xiaoxuan. Yu Xiaoxuan still seldom talked and often sat alone in the room in a daze, but at least she ate a little.
The funeral was organized by Shen Qinglan, Fang Tong and Han Yi. Not many people came on the day of the funeral. Except for Shen Qinglan, there were only the relatives of the Yu family. Han Yi stayed with Yu Xiaoxuan throughout the whole process, and even treated himself as the son-in-law of the Yu family.
After the funeral got over, it was already evening. Han Yi had just gone to send a group of relatives of the Yu family to the hotel. When he came back, he saw a few familiar people sitting in the living room of the Yu family. Han Yi remembered that they seemed to have appeared at the funeral today.
A woman in her forties sat next to Yu Xiaoxuan, with a sad look on her face, “Xiaoxuan, we didn’t expect that something like this would happen. You are the only bloodline of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, so you must take good care of yourself.”
Yu Xiaoxuan’s face was expressionless. Her mood had been at a low point in the past few days. With the sudden death of her parents, Yu Xiaoxuan was able to cheer up and attend their funeral.
The woman was Yu Xiaoxuan’s second aunt. Seeing that Yu Xiaoxuan had no reaction, she looked at Yu Xiaoxuan’s second uncle and said, “Xiaoxuan, I know that the death of my eldest brother and sister-in-law has hit you hard, but you are still young. The road ahead is still long. Even if it’s not for yourself, you have to cheer up for your parents.”
Yu Xiaoxuan finally raised her eyes and glanced at the woman, “Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”
The aunt winked, and the second aunt said, “Xiaoxuan, from now on you will be the child of me and your second uncle. We will treat you as our own biological child. From now on, you will move in with us, and I will prepare a room for you. Well, it’s right next door to your cousin. You two sisters can keep each othercompany.”
After hearing this, Yu Xiaoxuan’s eyes didn’t even waver. She just looked at the second aunt and said nothing and stared at her second uncle. her uncle glanced at her and said, “Xiaoxuan, your second aunt is right. From now on, you will be my and your second aunt’s child. Come home with us tomorrow. Your second uncle will take good care of your father’s company and keep it for you in the future. Until you have found your husband’s family, then this company will serve as your dowry.”
Yu Xiaoxuan finally responded. She looked up at her second uncle, “Second uncle, my dad just died, and you can’t wait to get his company. Isn’t your appearance too ugly?”
The second uncle’s face turned green. “What do you mean I want your father’s company? I want to take care of it for you. Now that you are a big star, how can you have time to take care of the company? You can’t just watch your father’s hard work be destroyed.”
The second aunt nodded with deep understanding, “Xiaoxuan, you misunderstood, we don’t want your company, this company was left to you by your father, we won’t take it. Your second uncle also said just now that he will manage it for you for a few years. After a few years, when you find your husband’s family, this will be your dowry. When we women get married, if we don’t have a dowry, we will be bullied in the husband’s family in the future. You are the only blood of the eldest brother and sister-in-law. How can we bear to let you be bullied by others?”
“Hehe, help with management?” Yu Xiaoxuan sneered, looking at her second uncle and second aunt. “Can I get it back after I hand over the company to you?”
Yu Xiaoxuan knew very well the character of her second uncle and second aunt. When her father was still alive, he had always been thinking about their family company, he would come home from time to time and ask her father to let her second uncle come into the company to help. If her mother hadn’t insisted, she was afraid her second uncle would have joined the company by now.
It was also because of this that the second uncle’s family hated her mother and thought that if her mother hadn’t blocked them, they would have gotten the company long ago.
“Xiaoxuan, what are you talking about? We are your second uncle and second aunt, your only relatives in this world. Isn’t you saying this hurting your second uncle’s heart?” The second uncle said sadly.
The second aunt’s face was also very ugly, as if she had been hurt by Yu Xiaoxuan.
“Who said Xiaoxuan has no relatives in this world? Am I not a human being?” Han Yi’s cold voice came from the door. The second uncle and the second aunt looked over and saw the young man they saw at the funeral today.
Han Yi had been by Yu Xiaoxuan’s side today, so the two of them naturally knew each other.
“Who are you?” The second uncle looked at Han Yi and asked.
Han Yi sat down next to Yu Xiaoxuan, “I am Yu Xiaoxuan’s boyfriend, and I will be Yu Xiaoxuan’s husband in the future. She still has me as her family.”
“Xiaoxuan doesn’t have a boyfriend at all, young man, you must be honest,” the second uncle said seriously, rolling his eyes.
Han Yi had seen a lot of people like this second uncle. He smiled, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes. “Second uncle, right? Xiaoxuan is currently on the rise in her career, so she has not announced her relationship to the public. I am Xiaoxuan’s boyfriend. Xiaoxuan’s parents also knew about this matter. If you don’t know, it only means that your relationship with Xiaoxuan’s family is not good.”
The second uncle’s face was ashen, but before he could speak, Han Yi continued, “You just said that you would take Xiaoxuan to live at home. I don’t think it’s necessary. I am Xiaoxuan’s boyfriend and I will take care of her in the future. If Xiaoxuan doesn’t have time to manage the company, we will find professional managers to manage it. They are professionals. It’s better than you, a layman.”
These words were not polite at all. The faces of the second uncle and the second aunt were ugly, but when they met Han Yi’s cold eyes, they could not say anything else and could only look at Yu Xiaoxuan, “Xiaoxuan, look at the man you are looking for. Is this human language? I’m afraid that your second uncle is kind-hearted, but what will happen if the word gets out?”
“Since second uncle and second aunt are not that kind of people, then naturally they will not worry about our family’s company when my father died. In this case, second uncle and second aunt should go back. Well, I won’t bother you with the company’s affairs. I will find a professional manager to take care of it. I won’t let my father’s hard work be wasted.”
The second aunt’s face stiffened and she smiled dryly, “Xiaoxuan, professional managers are outsiders after all. They don’t care about the company as well as the family can. Your second uncle has nothing to do on weekdays. He can help you manage the company without asking for your money. This way you can save money and feel at ease.”
Yu Xiaoxuan raised her eyes and looked directly at the second aunt, “After all, second uncle and second aunt still want my company, right? I might as well tell you directly, even if I have to sell the company. I won’t hand over the company to you, so just give up. By the way, I forgot to tell you that my father made a will two years ago. After their death, all the property belongs to me. Even if you want to litigate with me, there is no chance of winning.”
The second uncle’s face darkened, looking with anger at Yu Xiaoxuan’s face, “Yu Xiaoxuan, I am your second uncle after all, this is how you behave with your elders.”
Yu Xiaoxuan refused to be outdone, “You also know that you are the elder. Do you still remember that my father has just passed away, and you are so eager to take away my father’s company? Don’t forget, my father founded this company. You didn’t contribute a penny. Now you just want to eat what’s ready. Do you think I’m a fool?”
“Okay, okay, Yu Xiaoxuan, since you are so shameless, let’s wait and see.” The second uncle walked away, and the second aunt glared at Han Yi. She quickly chased after him.
Yu Xiaoxuan lost all her strength in an instant and slumped down on the sofa, her eyes vacant and lifeless.
Han Yi looked at her worriedly, “Xiaoxuan, are you okay?”
Yu Xiaoxuan focused on Han Yi’s face and said softly, “Han Yi, hug me. I’m cold.”
Han Yi’s heart twitched fiercely, and he hugged her tightly, feeling her gentle trembling, “Yu Xiaoxuan, don’t be afraid, you were brave just now, you must be so brave and strong in the future, it doesn’t matter if you’re not brave. You still have me. You don’t need anything. Remember, no matter what you lose in the end, you still have me. I will protect your father’s hard work.”
Yu Xiaoxuan nodded fiercely. She buried her head in Han Yi’s arms and said nothing. She was so tired, really tired.
“Han Yi, I only have you now, you must not betray me.” Yu Xiaoxuan spoke softly, her voice trembling.
Han Yi chuckled, “Fool, I will never betray you.”
