Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xi Cheng’s face was livid as he asked, “How did my mother fall down the stairs?”

“My young master!” Mr. Zhou exclaimed with a pained expression. “Why are you still asking such questions? Are you trying to kill Young Madam? The most important thing for us now is to pray to the heavens for Madam to wake up soon. You can’t betray Young Madam’s hopes!”

Xi Cheng ignored him and looked at Lily, who involuntarily trembled and replied, “I don’t know, Young Master! I was busy with something else when Madam fell down the stairs. Madam had already fallen down when I rushed over.”

“Why didn’t you guys fix the surveillance cameras at home when they broke?” Xi Cheng asked coldly.

“We called someone to come fix them, but… the incident happened before the repairman could arrive,” Mr. Zhou hurriedly answered, looking plaintive.ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

Lin Yu suddenly appeared at the door and said coldly, “Why don’t you just ask me directly what you want to know?”

Lily stared at Lin Yu uneasily. “Young Madam—”

“Mr. Zhou, Lily, please step outside for a moment,” Lin Yu softly instructed, cutting her off. Mr. Zhou looked at Xi Cheng, wanting to say something but hesitating before he finally sighed and walked out with Lily.

“I was right by Mom’s side when she fell, so why don’t you ask me? Xi Cheng, you believe what that b*tch said, don’t you?” Lin Yu demanded, gaze burning.

Xi Cheng wasn’t used to Lin Yu being like this. He avoided her gaze and murmured, “I just want to hear their version of the story. I don’t want anyone to slander you.”

“Slander me?” Lin Yu laughed self-deprecatingly. ‘You actually care about others slandering me? Then why didn’t you speak up for me when Fang Xi openly accused me?”

Xi Cheng frowned. “Lin Yu, you were the one who started it. Fang Xi wouldn’t say such things about you if you didn’t put her on the spot. I’ve never seen her like that before; she’s usually very nice. You must have backed her into a corner!”

Tears flowed from Lin Yu’s eyes as she retorted, “Shes backed into a corner?

What about me?! Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill her if I get backed into a corner?”

Xi Cheng stared dumbfoundedly at Lin Yu. He then took a deep breath, suppressed the shock and anger in his heart, and softened his voice to say, “Lin Yu, we’re married now—we’re husband and wife. You’re the Xi family’s young madam! What more do you want?”

Lin Yu wiped her tears and mournfully replied, “Yeah, that’s right! I’m the Xi family’s young madam now. I’ve known that’s what’s in store for me since I was a kid, but I’ve spent so many years trying my best to get to where I am today! I’m finally the Xi family’s young madam, but so what? So WHAT?! Does anyone care about me?”

Xi Cheng walked to Lin Yu’s side and said softly, “Come on, Lin Yu. Don’t do this. We’re already married, so let’s live a good life together.”

Lin Yu looked at Xi Cheng through her tears. “Can we? Can we still live a good life together?”

Xi Cheng looked at Lin Yu, whose eyes were filled with despair, and his heart couldn’t help but soften. He gently hugged her thin, waifish body and whispered, “Let’s live a good life together.”

Lin Yu burst into tears, and after Xi Cheng calmed her down, he inquired solemnly, “Tell me, how did Mom get injured?”

Lin Yu knew she couldn’t avoid this no matter what and answered, “That day, after you sent that envelope to Fang Xi, she called me and asked me to meet with her. I saw your car outside Ling Yun Borough, and then I saw Fang Xi arrive there. I knew she was telling the truth; you really were seeing her in private.”

Lin Yu continued, “I cried all the way home. Mom asked me what was wrong when she saw me crying. I told her that you had rekindled things with Fang Xi. Mom was furious and rushed out, intending to look for you guys. I stood up to stop her but knocked my leg against the corner of the coffee table and fell. By the time I got up to chase after her, Mom had already fallen down the stairs.” Lin Yu lifted the hem of her dress as she finished to show Xi Cheng the large bruise on her leg.

Xi Cheng patted Lin Yu’s back and gently apologized, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you.”

Lin Yu looked extremely aggrieved as tears streamed down her face. Xi Cheng stood up and told her, “It’s been a long day, so get some sleep. I’m going to the hospital to visit Mom.”

Lin Yu immediately got up. “I’ll go with you.”

Xi Cheng was slightly hesitant, and Lin Yu said, “I’ll go get changed. You should get changed, too. Let’s tell Mom the good news of our marriage.”

Xi Cheng nodded slowly, thinking, ‘I should live my days properly with Lin Yu. I shouldn’t disturb Fang Xi anymore. I can’t let Lin Yu down again..’
