Saving Wang - Chapter 148 - Who Beat Chen Derong
When Yi Duanfang told Chen Keren that Wang Weixi resigned, Chen Keren kept silence for a moment and then hung off.
Before he could tell her that he had resigned too, Yi Duanfang had been desolated for a long time.
Alas……
Sitting in his small room, Yi Duanfang was drinking while thumbing through the photo album sadly, which he always carried with him. For three days, he had not found Wang Weixi, who disappeared silently. Yi Duanfang dared not to call Li Chunhua, who had gone back home, for fear that she was concerned. However, he doubted if Wang Weixi had gone back. His mind was so cluttered. He had no choice but called Chen Keren. He hoped that Chen Keren could help him to find Wang Weixi, but her reaction was beyond his expectation…
By chance, he turned to their photos at university. Wang Weixi slept on a desk, having short hair and wearing no glasses. He knitted eyebrows slightly as if he was thinking difficult problems in his sleep. Bathing in the afternoon sun, he looked very kind.
Yi Duanfang’s suddenly turned wet. He doubted if he could let that man go.
Upon hearing that he quit, Yi Duanfang felt an unprecedented emptiness… Instead of panic, he had not known how to face this. He stood there so stupidly.

He raised the corners of his mouth and closed the album.
He slowly closed his eyes and thought Chen Keren’s face without a smile. Then, he thought her tenderness and rare girlish smile. Deeply and shallowly… he remembered very well.
“What am I thinking about?” Yi Duanfang laughed with self-mockery. He had a woman he liked, so how could he always bear Wang Weixi in mind? Now the most important thing was… Let Kexin make peace with Weixi.
At thought of this, he took a drink depressingly. As Lan Xiao pleased Kexin every day, Yi Duanfang doubted if he would take actions. “Alas, what can I do? The opponent is very strong…”
…
As expected, Lan Xiao also went to Chen family’s villa and cheered up Chen Kexin today.
But after laughing, they felt an unspeakable confusion.
“Kexin, what did the doctor say? Is the baby fine?” Lan Xiao and Chen Kexin sat on the sofa in the hall. He looked at Chen Kexin’s belly but he could not see anything. The baby had slowly grown up in his beloved woman’s belly for two months and a day.
Chen Kexin said with a smile, “Fine.”
Then, they suddenly said nothing.
Lan Xiao was overwhelmed by the terrible silence. He knew that lovers would be happy rather than uneasy, even if they did not say a word but sat together to do things. However, there always seemed to be a thick film between him and Chen Kexin. He did not know how to remove that barrier.
Holding a cup, Chen Kexin was sipping tea while looking out of the window, looking absent-minded.
“Kexin … I want to give you something.” Lan Xiao did not think that he could not wait any longer. He took out a delicate box from his pocket.
Chen Kexin glared at him and asked gently, “Xiaoxiao, what have you got for me?”
The heart was suddenly beating so fast.
At this time, Chen Keren drove back. When she got off the car and ascended the steps, he heard Lan Xiao’s soft voice. “You always know my… my heart, right?”
Chen Kexin looked at Lan Xiao in panic. The calm was shattered. She slowly put down the cup and gently nodded. She dared not to raise her head and even not dared to look at Lan Xiao.
Chen Keren stopped there quietly and listened with strain ears.
Lan Xiao seemed to be nervous too. He put a jewel case in front of Chen Kexin and slowly opened it. There was a ring inside the case.
Chen Kexin looked at the ring and bit her lips.
Lan Xiao took a deep breath and said seriously, “In this period, I saw you always force yourself, whether to laugh or to eat. At all times, you pretended to be happy. But… everybody can see that you’re not happy.”
Chen Kexin forced a smile and said, “No, you think too much… I’m really okay. For the baby’s health, I must be happy every day.”
Lan Xiao shook his head, “You know that I can’t believe it.”
Chen Kexin said nothing.
“I worried that I couldn’t make you happy, so I chose to go out to hone myself. But now, I’m so confident and I want to stay with you… I hope that I can take good care of you and the baby…”
Chen Kexin kept silent.
Lan Xiao was watching her anxiously. For lack of love experience, Lan Xiao could not say sweet words. However, he was so sincere.
“Sorry… I can’t accept…” Chen Kexin turned away and said gently.
Lan Xiao was in silence and looked at Chen Kexin. Actually, the answer was as he expected. He knew that Chen Kexin could never give her heart easily. Once she fell in love, she would be willing to spend a lifetime.
Hearing her say no, he felt no less sad.
Seeing Lan Xiao say nothing, Chen Kexin looked up at him and said with anxiety, “Sorry, I know it’s useless to say sorry. In my eyes, only a unique woman in the world can match with Xiaoxiao. But I…” When it came to this, she dropped her eyes and forced a smile. “I’m a woman no longer pure. I even can’t keep my man…”
Lan Xiao shook his head and closed the case. He stood up and touched her hair gently, “Don’t abase yourself.”
Chen Kexin looked up and laughed without words.
“I know that you’re just too stubborn. In fact, I know that you would refuse me. I thought that I never confess to you, so… I feel a little regretful. I don’t want to leave regrets before I leave. Thus, I want to express my love to you.”
Chen Kexin looked at Lan Xiao, “Are you leaving?”
Lan Xiao sat there and smiled faintly, “Yes.”
“Why… didn’t you tell me…” The voice grew weaker.
Lan Xiao lowered his head and said nothing.
Chen Kexin bit her lips, “Is it me?”
Lan Xiao said as he shook his head, “Of course not. I’ve gone so far this time. There’s been some trouble with the company in France, so I need to solve it personally.”
Chen Kexin breathed a sigh of relief, “So, you’ll come back soon?”
Lan Xiao still chuckled with a little sadness in his eyes.
Chen Kexin watched him and asked uneasily, “Won’t you come back?”
Lan Xiao nodded.
Chen Kexin bit her lips and whispered, “But… but… will you feel lonely if you’re aboard alone?”
“Ho-ho… Silly girl, what are you talking about? I’ve been living aboard all the time, all the time… I’m a little uncomfortable at home. Ho-ho… Moreover, I have several head offices aboard, so it’s time to settle down.”
Chen Kexin said nothing with tears dripping from her eyes.
“The ring… You keep it! I hope… even if you don’t accept me, you should accept this present at least.” Lan Xiao said sadly.
Chen Kexin bowed her head like a kid who made a mistake. After a long time, she nodded and tears began to fall.
The heart suddenly became empty again.
Another person was about to leave her.
…
“When are you going to leave?” Chen Keren came in and asked.
Chen Kexin and Lan Xiao looked at her unexpectedly. Chen Keren went over and sat next to Chen Kexin. She watched Lan Xiao and gestured for him to answer.
Lan Xiao forced a smile, “You, how can you be so well-reasoned to eavesdrop on us?”
Chen Keren gave him a contemptuous look, “Do I have to apply for a permit?”
Lan Xiao laughed without words. Only he could treat Chen Keren so calmly.
Chen Kexin was a little angry, “when did you come back?”
“Is it important that when I came back? I just follow your conversation. Lan Xiao, when will you leave?” Chen Keren said indifferently.
“How heartless girl you are!” Lan Xiao pretended to be helpless and complained, and then he stopped smiling, “Two hours later.”
…
Chen Kexin and Chen Keren were surprised.
Lan Xiao saw their look and said with a gentle smile, “All right. I should go to catch the flight. Take good care of yourself.” With this, Lan Xiao got up and left.
Lan Xiao’s car engine sounded before Chen Kexin and Chen Keren reacted.
…
When Chen Kexin got up and prepared to go out, the housekeeper rushed in hurriedly and breathlessly explained, “My ladies, an accident happened. The master, the master was beaten by others!”
Chen Kexin and Chen Keren looked in disbelief and answered in unison, “What?”
“Really, his head is still covered with gauze!”
…
“Who?” Chen Kexin immediately asked.
The housekeeper suddenly stopped talking and looked awkward.
