Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 688 - 666: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age (Part 3)

Chapter 688: Chapter 666: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age (Part 3)

The old doctor in the clinic took one look and made a judgment.

Upon hearing it was just unconsciousness, Zhan Yunxiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he didn’t ask for the old doctor’s ointment; he just paid and left.

Who would have more complete ointments for bruises and pain relief than his own family?

He had many bottles on hand, made by his mother for emergencies.

Xia Luo woke up to find herself lying in a bed.

She thought it was Mu Chen who took her away, quickly got up, and went to leave.

But just as she reached the door and opened it, she bumped into Zhan Yunxiao who was coming in with milk from outside.

"Zhan Yunxiao?" Xia Luo exclaimed in surprise.

Why wasn’t it Mu Chen, but Zhan Yunxiao?

"So surprised to see me?" Zhan Yunxiao walked past her and came in.

"I thought it was Mu Chen." Xia Luo turned around to explain to him.

"So, it was indeed Mu Chen who took you?"

Xia Luo nodded, "Qingqing is also in his hands. As expected, our initial suspicions were right. Yang’s death was related to him, he was forced. Actually, Yang’s stab wasn’t deliberately off-target, he never intended to kill you."

"You’re still willing to speak for him; he was someone Mu Chen used to lure you, wasn’t he!" Zhan Yunxiao speculated.

Xia Luo nodded again, "Yes, Mu Chen’s goal was for you and me to hurt each other. But obviously, he overestimated us."

As she spoke, Xia Luo revealed a bitter smile.

Since she stabbed Ye Ningwan, Zhan Yunxiao hasn’t liked her.

So, no matter whom she liked, was with, or was deceived by, what did it matter to Zhan Yunxiao?

Zhan Yunxiao wouldn’t be moved, nor would he have any emotional fluctuations because of her.

Mu Chen’s calculations were entirely mistaken.

"Why do you say he overestimated us?" Zhan Yunxiao asked.

Xia Luo snorted, "Because he thought you still had feelings for me and would act out of character because of me, which is utterly ridiculous."

"I took a stab without telling the reason, rather be misunderstood by you than hurt you, isn’t that out of character?" Zhan Yunxiao questioned.

Xia Luo was stunned, looking at him in shock, her eyes filled with doubt.

Zhan Yunxiao closed his eyes.

He realized, she had already let go.

From the moment she accepted someone else, she had already let go.

He was the only one still holding on.

"What did Mu Chen say to you? What does he want you to do to release that girl? You must want to save that girl, right? Did he threaten you again, perhaps to harm my mother, or... to harm me?" Zhan Yunxiao diverted the topic, asking in a low voice.

Thinking of Mu Chen’s demands, Xia Luo blushed and said in a low voice, "No, this time he didn’t ask me to harm you or Auntie."

"No? How is that possible? He went through so much trouble, it can’t be without demands." Zhan Yunxiao didn’t believe it.

Xia Luo bit her lip.

Should she tell Zhan Yunxiao about Mu Chen’s demand?

Such an unreasonable demand, saying it would only be a burden to Zhan Yunxiao!

It might even make him laugh at her, thinking she’s delusional.

"What did he ask you to do exactly?" Seeing her silence, Zhan Yunxiao couldn’t help but anxiously question.

"It’s nothing; it’s my own business, I’ll handle it myself." Xia Luo thought about it and decided not to tell him.

Zhan Yunxiao took a deep breath and said coldly, "I know you don’t trust me and don’t want to tell me your problems. Originally, I didn’t want to interfere either, but since Fang Qingyang’s death, one way or another I bear some responsibility, and his sister is innocent. I don’t want an innocent little girl to be dragged into this, that’s why I want to know what he’s asking you so that I can face it with you. But since you don’t want to do it together, then forget it. Here’s a bottle of medicine for you, apply it on the back of your neck, it won’t hurt after the swelling goes down. You can stay here for a night, or leave immediately, whatever you choose."

With that, Zhan Yunxiao placed the milk down and left.

Xia Luo watched his retreating figure and bit her lip again.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell him, she just didn’t want to trouble him.

"I’m sorry."

Xia Luo apologized silently.

Even though she didn’t know how to solve this issue either, she understood Mu Chen.

If she remained inactive for too long, Mu Chen would surely contact her again.

As for how to solve this issue, she’d think about it when he contacted her again.

She knew Mu Chen’s personality well, he wouldn’t give up until he achieved his goal, he wouldn’t let go easily.

It was just a matter of who’s more patient, maybe then there would be an opportunity to fight back.

But who would’ve thought, after Zhan Yunxiao left, he suddenly returned not long after.

He pushed open the door and barged in.

Urgently, he asked Xia Luo, "Did Mu Chen ask you to marry me in order to let that little girl go?"
