Chapter 98 - He Shouldn't Take Their Actions To Heart
As she walked down the stairs, she had yet to see the guests and could only hear a woman's voice. "Young master Jingyi, you know that FeiFei can be so unreasonable and childish at time. We have spoiled her too much for her to do that. We are truly sorry. Please don't-"
That voice suddenly stopped because of Xiao li. The woman who was crying and begging in front of Jingyi Wang stopped when she saw Xiao li coming down the stairs. She quickly grabbed Xiao li's hands and pleaded.
"Miss Xiao, please forgive FeiFei. Beg Young Master Jingyi to let FeiFei go. My daughter is still so young and can't live alone in that dessert. I know that she offended you and I know that you are nice enough to forgive and forget. I'm begging you, please talk to young master"
At first, Xiao li didn't recognize the person, but due to the woman's words, she knew that this woman must be Hong fei's mother. When she looked over, she saw a man sitting on the couch whose face was paled and beads of sweat dripping from his hair. His eyes held a pleading look as he gazed at Jingyi Wang who didn't seemed to be affected by their words or plea.
His face was sterned and cold.
She knew in an instant that he must be Hong fei's father.
Jingyi Wang's expression became distant, "Auntie meng, don't drag her into this, Lili is also a victim here. Your daughter actually raised her hand and hit my woman"
Xiao li heard this, removed her hand from Xei Meng's and slowly walked towards Jingyi Wang. "FeiFei really has been spoiled from a very young age. It's bad enough that she is always trying to steal another woman's property. She is a spoiled princess and she really doesn't know what it is like to suffer at all. I think if she spend at least not less than one year there, she would change" Xiao li sat down beside Jingyi Wang as she spoke.
Xei Meng heard this and almost fainted. She rushed over to Xiao li and knelt down in front of her. Tears fell fast from her eyes, "Please Young Miss, my daughter is truly sorry for what she did, but she can't live alone for one year. She would... Die"
She held Xiao li's hands as she spoke, "Punish me instead. Give me any punishment you want, but don't do this to my only daughter"
As she said this, she bowed down and started kowtowing on the floor. A red mark soon started to appear on her forehead, but still she didn't care. She kept on kowtowing heavily.
At that moment, Xiao like was totally shocked.
It was said that Xei Meng came from a very rich family and she had never bowed for anyone before in her over forty years of living. Even when she talked with Jingyi Wang, she treated him like her son.
However, today, she had to bow before a small lady like Xiao li.
Xiao li immediately stood up, reached out her hands to pull her up, "Auntie, please don't... Don't do this. I'm begging you"
She tried pulling her up several times, but she didn't budge. Xiao then got frustrated and sad at the same time. She turned her head to look at Jingyi Wang, then she hurriedly said, "Ah Jin, that's enough, okay? Just make it four months... please"
Jingyi Wang was surprised to hear her words. His sterned expression changed to a soft one as he looked at her. "Baby, are you sure? You really want it to be four months? That woman hit you and you want to let the matter go just like that?" his voice turned ice- cold like winter wind hitting their body ruthlessly.
His entire body exuded a dangerous aura towards his enemy who tries to hurt his woman.
Xiao li was shocked at how his expression turned out to be after making a small request. Although, she had also seen this side of him, she still felt scared.
She mustered up her courage and slowly nodded her head with a small pout. She blinked her eyes seductively. When she saw that Jingyi Wang's face remained expressionless, she wrapped her arms around his and pleaded with him, "Ah Jin, I'm making just a small request, just this once please..."
At that moment, Yang Lingsi bringing over some of the excellent tea previously bought by Jingyi Wang for Xiao li. Under Jingyi Wang's signal, Yang Lingsi left the hot water on the tea table and left.
Then, Jingyi Wang poured a cup of tea for Xiao li. "You should drink this tea"
Who would be so blind not to notice the chemistry between the both of them?
Of course, Jingyi Wang so much care about Xiao li. He did not only have good looks, but also he was so sweet to only Xiao li.
Seeing this, Xei Meng now know the reason why her daughter wanted to be with Jingyi Wang. In the past, she had always wanted the two families to come together as one. Xei Meng and Wang shu grew up together and they were considered good sisters.
When they give birth to their children, Xei Meng has always wanted Hong fei to marry her best friend's son.
Xei Meng who was watching them looked away, her expression was unhappy.
"Thank you" Xiao li took a sip from the tea and placed it down. She turned to look at Hong Zhan, "Uncle, you don't have to worry.I promise that Hong fei would come back after four months. Ah Jin knows what he is doing as an elder brother. He is doing this to teach her a lesson"
Hong Zhan heard this and looked at Jingyi Wang in surprise. Jingyi Wang nodded his head and pulled Xiao li into his arms. He, then said, his voice calm and soft, "Uncle Zhan, just as she said, you don't have to worry about anything. All you need to do is to look after yourself. Afterall, your health is more important"
Xiao li heaved a sigh of relief after she heard this reassuring words. Slowly, her lips stretched into a smile knowing fully well that Jingyi Wang wouldn't refuse her.
There is a saying that, Men can't resist women's charm, especially the woman they love.
"Yang Lingsi, send off the guests" Jingyi Wang called on Yang Lingsi to escort the guests out.
With a heavy heart, Xei Meng could only leave the house after Jingyi Wang had said that.

In the Master bedroom.
Jingyi Wang placed his laptop down and raised his head to look at Xiao li. She was playing with her phone and did not notice that this man has been staring at her.
"Little Lili, Come here"
It was after his words came out of his mouth that Xiao li raise her head in surprise.
"I said come here" Jingyi Wang waved his hand as a signal, telling her to come closer when he saw that she refused to move.
Slowly, Xiao li put down her phone and walked over to him. At that moment, Xiao li suddenly gasped in shock as her butt landed on his laps. She looked at him, frightened and stunned.
"Why didn't you allow me to punish Hong Fei?" he slowly tucked her loosed hair behind her ear as he whispered into her ears, "You know, you don't have to be so friendly and nice to everyone"
After living with her for so long, he noticed that Xiao li isn't as strict and harsh as he thought. She still had a soft side that makes people love her. When he looked into her info, he watched videos of her playing the piano by the roadside for people to watch.
Xiao li did not seem affected as she lifted her beautiful brows. Her voice was slow and calm as she said, "Normally, it isn't good to keep grudges. Forgiving those who offend you sometimes is for the sake of having peaceful and quiet times"
After she said that, she placed her hand in his, gently pressing against his palm. The meaning was that he shouldn't take their actions to heart. They are all irrelevant so if they take their words and action to heart, they won't be able to forgive and forget.
Jingyi Wang was stunned for a moment, then the next moment, he placed his hand behind her neck and pulled her in for a passionate kiss.
"Mm" Xiao li's eyes widened in surprise at the sudden movement as her brain refused to react. By the time she reacted, Jingyi Wang had pulled away from her. He cupped the sides of her face and planted wet kisses on her crown, nose bridge and lips.
"Little Lili, I promise to protect you no matter what. I won't let anyone hit you or say bad things about you" As those words came out of his mouth, his eyes lit up. Then he sealed her lips with a kiss again.
