Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1976: Chapter 1976: Get Out of My Life

Jian Yufei laughed, ”That’s because cousin’s medical skills are unique. Do conventional doctors necessarily heal me?”

Ruan Tianling thought so, too.

”Then have her join the research team. Having one more person is having one more hope.”

”Yes.” Jian Yufei nodded.

Ruan Tianling suddenly asked, ”What did you and her talk about today?”

”Nothing at all. She drank alone in silence, and when I asked her, she wouldn’t say.” Jian Yufei responded naturally.

Ruan Tianling said, ”It must be a relationship issue.”

But he wasn’t in the frame of mind to worry about others’ relationships. He was already consumed by concern for Jian Yufei, leaving no room to worry about anyone else.

After sending Li Mingxi home, Xiao Lang watched as Li Mingxi immediately went to sleep.

The whole way back, Li Mingxi didn’t say a word, clearly in a poor mood.

Having known her for so many years, she seldom was in a bad mood. Even when she was, she would shrug it off effortlessly.

But recently, Li Mingxi had changed, becoming more sentimental.

Her carefree demeanor was gone, and her radiant smile had vanished.

Seeing this side of Li Mingxi made Xiao Lang uncomfortable.

He hoped she would always smile brightly like sunshine, not sulk sadly.

Sitting by the bed and watching Li Mingxi pretend to sleep, he asked in a low voice, ”What’s going on with you lately? Why are you in a bad mood?”

Li Mingxi abruptly opened her eyes, smiling alluringly, ”Which eye of yours saw that I was in a bad mood?”

”Would you drink in silence if you were in a good mood?”

”I was drinking because I was happy.” Li Mingxi propped herself up, smiling brightly, no different from before.

But Xiao Lang could sense the sadness in her eyes.

Her smile was a facade, and she was not happy at all.

Xiao Lang stared at her and asked, ”What made you so happy that you drank?”

”That’s my business, none of yours! Thank you for bringing me back. You can go now!” Li Mingxi waved her hand and was about to lie back down.

Xiao Lang suddenly grabbed her arm, pulling her towards him.

Their faces almost collided, and Li Mingxi stared at him, startled, their breaths close.

”What are you doing?!” she asked faintly.

With a deep gaze, Xiao Lang said, ”Can we talk openly today? I don’t want you to be down because of me.”

Li Mingxi’s heart fluttered for a moment.

Did he need to ’leave no room for escape’?

She was trying her best to forget him. Give her some time, don’t resolve it so quickly, okay?

Li Mingxi suddenly smiled charmingly, ”Xiao Lang, aren’t you a bit full of yourself? Who is down because of you? I’ve never known what being down means. I’m happy, don’t you know!”

”Then what are you happy about?” Xiao Lang pressed.

”...”

”Mingxi, be honest, have a good talk with me. If you want to hit me to vent, that’s fine too, just don’t feel sad because of someone like me,” Xiao Lang said earnestly.

He doesn’t deserve her; he’s not worth her sadness.

As long as it makes her happy, he can disappear forever, never appearing before her again...

Li Mingxi could no longer maintain her fake smile.

She slightly clenched her fists, suddenly pushing his hand away with force.

”You asked what made me happy, fine, I’ll tell you! I’m happy because I’ve finally forgotten you! I’m happy because I can go find someone else to date, marry, and have children with, live the life I want! You, from now on, get out of my life, I can take it or leave it, rest assured, I swear, I will never think of you again... huh...”
