My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady-Chapter 394: I Just, Somewhat, Can’t Believe It

Xia Chui’s eyes suddenly sharpened as he stared intently at Xia Ruyan, whose face was purplish-green, his gaze deep and furious.

He said, "Xiaxia, being such a young girl, even if she’s ignorant, wouldn’t make such a resolute decision. I never knew there was such an incident back then."

Xia Ruyan shook her head, her eyes fixed tightly on Xia Chui’s face, pointing at Xia Ji, "She’s spouting nonsense. You all dote on her so much that whatever she says goes."

The cold and merciless demeanor of Xia Chui made Xia Ruyan somewhat afraid. In her panic and without a way out, she could only talk nonsense, reminding Xia Chui in another way about the great difference in how he treated her compared to Xia Ji.

Trying to evoke the little sympathy that Xia Chui had for her.

But she misjudged one thing, and that was between Xia Ji and someone else, Xia Chui would always consider Xia Ji first.

This was an accumulation of yearlong, immeasurable compassion.

Therefore, Xia Ruyan’s words not only failed to elicit a shred of sympathy from Xia Chui, but they even made him loathe her a bit more.

"Back then, my second brother hated you to the bone, and it was I who let him spare you, and Grandfather didn’t bother with it;

Now looking back, wasn’t I just an accomplice? In helping you, I let my sister leave this family."

Wasn’t it true? Because of Xia Chui’s years of forbearance, he gave Xia Ji a misconception that the Xia Family had accepted Xia Ruyan.

So when Xia Ji returned to the country, they’ve only found out after such a long time.

Xia Chui turned his head to look at Xia Ji, about to speak but stopped. Xia Ji smiled faintly, "Big brother, I trust you."

If he truly took Xia Ruyan seriously, then Xia Chui wouldn’t be putting her down like this now.

She watched with schadenfreude as Xia Ruyan collapsed in defeat and didn’t think there was anything wrong with her attitude, snorting with laughter, "So, you should think carefully about the words I just said."

With that, she grabbed Xia Chui’s arm, walking towards the house, and spoke as they walked, "Big brother, from now on, you have to listen to me well."

Xia Chui was caught between laughter and tears, "On matters of principle, we can’t be sloppy."

Xia Ji: "..."

Xia Ruyan watched the siblings leave with a distraught and reluctant heart, clenching her fists tightly, following them into the house to look for their grandfather.

As she reached the villa’s gate, she was stopped by Xia Yu who was waiting at the entrance. Xia Ruyan looked at Xia Yu’s cool expression with her reddened eyes full of grievance. Before Xia Yu could speak, she took the initiative, "You are my brother, we have the same father, why do you always help her?"

Why always help Xia Ji?

Why?

The person standing in front of her, he also had the audacity to ask him why?

Suppressing the urge to throttle her, a sinister smile played on Xia Yu’s lips, "Why? Just think about the time when you and your mother went to find my mother, did you consider then that you and I shared the same father? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

Exposing the dark history of the celebrated movie star Xia Ruyan, I have a pile of that here. Do you want me to expose some for you?

Had it not been for my brother letting you off back then, do you think you would have achieved what you have today? True, you couldn’t choose your birth.

But you’ve had a choice in what you’ve done, so, how did you choose to act?"

Xia Ruyan looked at Xia Yu, who seemed like a demon, with a face full of panic, "You want to destroy me?"

Xia Yu scoffed, "Destroy you? What a fresh word. Didn’t you not care for everything about the Xia Family? You’re just back now, so why does this count as wanting to destroy you?

Let’s put it another way, this is called fulfilling your wishes."

"You can’t do this," Xia Ruyan roared out, her heart rising to her throat, thinking about how hard-won her current success was, she didn’t want to lose it all.

All her previous claims of not caring about the Xia Family, her lack of choice, now seemed like a joke.

She couldn’t bear to leave the support of the Xia Family behind and had enjoyed all the glory because of it.

When she had it, she felt indifferent, but when it was taken away from her, she realized how much she cared.

Xia Yu was not like Xia Chui, burdened with many concerns. He loathed Xia Ruyan and her mother to the bone.

Every time he thought of his mother’s death, his hatred would deepen, and he sneered as he listened to Xia Ruyan’s roar behind him.

"How I act, what I do, you are the last person who has the right to speak."

Xia Ruyan bit her lip, staring at the grand yet understated villa in front of her before turning to leave.

Nobody cared what her last look meant or what she was scheming; even if they knew, the Xia Family members wouldn’t take it to heart.

...

Elsewhere, Xie Cheng had arranged a private hospital for Bo Yan and Yuran under the Si Family’s umbrella.

Bo Yan, familiar with the person in charge, took Yuran to the hospital first thing the next morning.

As the hospital’s general specialist, Si Huang was already waiting. Seeing Bo Yan carefully leading Yuran in, his eyebrows raised slightly with an amused scrutiny.

When Xie Cheng contacted him last night to make a reservation for the obstetrics and gynecology department, he couldn’t help but ask, "Whose belly did you knock up?"

Xie Cheng, incredibly calm, told him, "Bo Yan knocked someone up."

Shocked all night, he wanted to see for himself who had the capability to bear the child of Bo Yan, the feared "Demon."

Although Bo Yan was now a highly respected leading actor, the dream lover of millions of women, well.

Everyone who grew up with Bo Yan knows that he is absolutely a "Demon."

It’s just that the entertainment industry’s filters are too thick, concealing his true face.

A person’s nature is hard to change, and though he wears a coffin-face that keeps people miles away, it doesn’t erase the fact that he’s a "Demon."

At most, he’s just wearing a mask.

So today, early in the morning, he was ready at the hospital to witness the charm, but when he saw Yuran, he wasn’t sure, thinking maybe his eyes were deceiving him.

By the time the two walked up to him, Si Huang couldn’t blame his eyes anymore.

The young lady in front of him had changed a lot in appearance, but she was indeed the infamous Yuran.

Si Huang was so stunned that he couldn’t recover. Although there were some little gossips in the circle saying that Bo Yan and Yuran were inseparable and seemed to be married, after all, rumors are just rumors.

They can’t all be believed.

Yuran also knew Si Huang, from childhood days spent in the big courtyard, familiar with Si Huang, but because of those past events, she had distanced herself from these children of prestigious families.

So seeing Si Huang’s undisguised shock, she felt a bit awkward and half hid her face behind Bo Yan’s arm.

Bo Yan looked at Si Huang with displeasure, his face darkening, "What are you looking at?"

Si Huang snapped out of it, smiling and greeting Yuran, "Little Yuran, although it’s been many years, surely you haven’t forgotten me."

"Si second brother, long time no see."

Bo Yan pursed his lips, his arm encircling Yuran’s waist, and bypassed Si Huang, heading towards the obstetrics and gynecology department. Si Huang followed behind them, "Little Yuran is pregnant?"

Bo Yan, "Didn’t Xie Cheng explain everything when he made the reservation?"

Si Huang touched his nose, "He did make it clear. I just am, somewhat, in disbelief."
