Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 985 - 986: Never Again

When he saw her calling just now, he wasted no time answering the phone, not knowing what she would say.

He couldn’t help but worry, wondering if she was going to say she wasn’t coming back tonight!

Once connected, she said she was in the hotel lobby and asked him to come down to meet her. At that moment, he was thrilled!

Very thrilled!

She’s finally back!

Ziyang felt a bit speechless about his earlier thoughts, realizing how poorly he had assumed of Tianxin...

She’s not the kind of girl who would stay out all night!

Tianxin stood at the bathroom door, looking at him fearfully, blinking with grievance and saying, "I thought... you left me again!"

"It won’t happen again!" Ziyang promised her, ensuring that no matter what happens in the future, he won’t leave her alone in the room like today.

He recalled seeing her crouched in the parking lot crying earlier, and his heart ached...

It was his fault; he shouldn’t have left her alone in the room.

He promised it would never happen again.

"Okay!" Tianxin smiled happily, extending her hand in front of him, "I collected these shells by the seaside, and saved the prettiest ones for Brother Ziyang!"

"For me?" Ziyang glanced at her somewhat dirty face, then looked at the shells in her palm.

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Tianxin..." Ziyang smiled, feeling moved, and reached out to brush away the strands of hair from her forehead.

"Aren’t they beautiful? I spent a long time picking them out!" Tianxin looked at the shells happily.

"They’re beautiful; keep them safe, and take a bath and change clothes first."

"Alright." Tianxin turned towards the coffee table, carefully placing the shells on it.

She then turned towards the bathroom, with the salty smell of sea water lingering on her.

The wound on her face was also a bit itchy and painful; she’ll take the gauze off and check it later.

As she entered the bathroom, Ziyang stepped out and closed the door.

He went to the coffee table and picked up the shells Tianxin had collected for him, feeling a warmth in his heart as he held them...

"Ah~ Brother Ziyang!" Tianxin suddenly called from the bathroom.

Ziyang immediately dropped the shells and rushed to the bathroom, pushing open the door without thinking!

In the bathroom, he saw Tianxin with a distressed face, looking at him with a quivering lip on the verge of tears.

"What happened?" Ziyang approached her and carefully examined her.

"Brother Ziyang, my face..." Tianxin cried in distress, turning to let Ziyang see her face.

The wound on her face had turned pale and swollen, with some blood and fluid oozing out.

"Don’t scratch it, do you hear me!" Ziyang urgently warned her.

Tianxin immediately buried herself in his arms, hugging him and crying, "Am I going to become ugly..."

If she becomes ugly, what would she do if Brother Ziyang doesn’t like her anymore!

If she becomes ugly, she can’t become Brother Ziyang’s beautiful bride...

"You won’t, don’t say such things!" Ziyang stood stiffly, his hand hesitating for a long while before landing on her shoulder.

"If I become ugly, will Brother Ziyang dislike me?" Tianxin raised her head and asked, looking at him with hopeful big eyes.

"No!" Ziyang reassured her, gently touching her head.

Tianxin lowered her head, burying her face in his chest, smiling quietly with tears in her eyes.

As long as Brother Ziyang doesn’t despise her, she doesn’t care about anything else!

Ziyang comforted her for a while and repeatedly reminded her not to let the wound get wet while bathing.

Ziyang left the bathroom, closed the door, and called a service staff to help buy some items.

He couldn’t leave the room, and he couldn’t leave her alone in the room again!

The service staff followed Ziyang’s instructions and went to the pharmacy to buy what he needed.

Tianxin came out of her bath wearing a bathrobe, as she hadn’t brought a change of clothes.

She only planned to play for a day, so she didn’t bring any clothes with her.

"Brother Ziyang, what are you doing?" She asked, her hair messy and wet as she walked to the bed and saw some medicines laid out.
