Secret Marriage: Reborn as A Beautiful Model Student

“Alright.”

Ye Linlang sounded rather chipper.

Her mood had changed so quickly that Jessica did not know what to think of it.

“Then let me go and ask him to come in!”

Jessica opened the door and beckoned Xie Xuning to come in.

Wariness and terror filled Ye Linlang’s eyes upon seeing Xie Xuning standing at the entrance.

Jessica was shocked by how defensive Ye Linlang looked against Xie Xuning. She did not understand why Ye Linlang was acting like this.

“Linlang, this is Xie Xuning.”

Ye Linlang shook her head, “No, he is not! Xuning is younger than him… stop lying to me! Don’t you try to lie to me… I will not be fooled. Just get out of here!”

Ye Linlang grabbed a pillow and threw it at Xie Xuning.

“Get out! You’re not Xie Xuning. You’re a cheat! A rogue! A pervert!”

Jessica did not expect Ye Linlang to react so violently to Xie Xuning’s presence. This shouldn’t have been the case.

However, Xie Xuning understood why Ye Linlang reacted that way. He stood at the door and did not move toward Ye Linlang. He was afraid that she would be further provoked if he walked any closer to her.

“I am Xie Xuning.”

Ye Linlang retorted, “You’re not him, he’s much younger than you.”

Based on what Ye Linlang remembered, Xie Xuning looked nothing like the man in front of her.

She remembered how youthful, gentle, sophisticated, and composed Xie Xuning was.

It wasn’t supposed to turn out like this…

“This is because I am not in my twenties anymore. I’m now in my forties. Linlang, I have aged!”

Xie Xuning’s words were filled with sorrow. He also wished that he was as youthful and full of vigor as he was before. Most importantly, there would’ve been no distance between them back then.

Ye Linlang stood far away from Xie Xuning and did not move. The blood on her neck looked conspicuous.

“Does your neck still hurt? Shall I get a doctor to bandage the wound?”

Xie Xuning’s voice was soft and mellow, like snowflakes floating lightly to the ground.

Ye Linlang slowly walked toward Jessica, who then motioned for Xie Xuning not to move.

“Jessica, he, he is a cheat. He wants to trick me. I will not fall for it.”

Jessica let out a laugh and said, “Linlang, he is not lying to you. This really is Xie Xuning…”

When Ye Linlang heard that, she immediately came to the conclusion that both of them were in cahoots. Upon hearing that, Ye Linlang believed that they were both messing with up.

“You’re all horrible. I know you want to trick me into leaving with you. I will never believe what you say.”

Ye Linlang pushed Jessica aside and rush to open the door. She fell straight into Shi Han’s arms. She ran and hid behind him.

“Shi Han, the bad people want to take me away.”

Shi Han patted Ye Linlang’s hand and said, “I will protect you.”

The sight of Ye Linlang grabbing his arm tightly and looking very frightened made Shi Han frown.

“Shi Han, I’m neither crazy nor ill!”

Ye Linlang’s pleading look inevitably reminded Shi Han of those times when she was still recovering.

During that time, Xie Yi had the same look of fear and bewilderment. Other than Shi Han himself and Zues, she did not allow anyone else to go near her.

“Xie Yi, are you hungry?”

Ye Linlang touched her stomach and nodded, looking distressed.

“Yes, Shi Han…”

At that moment, Grandmother and Ye Tianxin came into the room with a bowl of soup.

“Come, come, the soup is here.”

Shi Han helped Ye Linlang to the chair at the corridor. Grandmother placed the bowl of soup in front of her as she sat at the table.

“Come on, Linlang. Drink the soup.”
