Chapter 1775: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (18)
Night had fallen.
After showering, Long Ming came out of the bathroom in his nightgown.
Seeing the woman drinking in front of the French windows, Long Ming walked over and took the wine glass from her hand.
“Something on your mind?”
Xiao Ying did not hide anything from Long Ming. She looked up at Long Ming’s well-defined handsome face and said, “I heard what you and the Duke discussed in the afternoon.”
Long Ming pursed his lips into a tight line.
“Don’t agree to his conditions for my sake. Liu Yiyi should be punished!”
Long Ming looked up and downed the glass of red wine she had drunk.
Without saying anything, he held her slender waist and lowered his head, his handsome face approaching her.
He kissed her.
…
The next day.
Long Ming woke up at dawn.
He had not slept well last night because he had a strange feeling that something would happen.
He reached his arm out to the other side but felt nothing.
He looked beside him, but there was no sign of the woman.
He touched the pillow. It was cold.
She must have left very early.
Long Ming frowned.
He washed up as quickly as he could, changed his clothes, and went downstairs.
After finding the butler, he asked coldly, “Where’s Miss Ying?”
“Miss Ying went out at four. She said she was going to buy something.”
Long Ming’s eyes darkened as he took out his phone and called Xiao Ying.
But it was switched off.
Long Ming thought how she had leaned into his arms and said to him last night, “I don’t want to be a burden to you. If we’re not destined to be together, I’d rather leave!”
He knew that she did not want him to be in a dilemma.
If the murderer who pushed the old lady into the water was brought to justice, her identity would be exposed.
At that time, all kinds of outcries would come from all directions.
If he had to let Liu Yiyi go in order to be with her, he would feel sorry for the old granny.
One was the benefactor who had saved him, while the other was the lover he loved deeply.
It was an extremely difficult decision.
She did not want him to be conflicted and in pain, so she had chosen to leave quietly.
F*ck!
Who had allowed her to leave?
Long Ming asked the butler to check the surveillance cameras. He wanted to know where Xiao Ying had gone as soon as possible.
But who was Xiao Ying? She had been trained since she was young. If she wanted to avoid someone, she could easily avoid them.
Xiao Ying had disappeared and no one knew where she had gone.
Long Ming once again experienced what heartache felt like.
Three days passed just like that.
Long Ming’s mood darkened.
He headed to the clubhouse alone.
He drunk a lot of wine.
He never thought that there would be a day when he would drown his sorrows in alcohol.
He drank two bottles of wine and by the time he came out of the clubhouse, his eagle-like eyes were filled with drunkenness.
He was wearing a mask and a black shirt and pants as he walked on the streets. There were no bodyguards behind him.
His steps were a little unsteady.
Suddenly, he saw a woman’s figure in front that looked like Xiao Ying.
He strode over and grabbed the woman’s arm.
The woman turned around in panic.
It was not her!
Long Ming immediately let go of the woman and was about to walk forward when an SUV drove over and stopped by the road.
Several young men got out of the car.
The woman was the girlfriend of one of the young men. The young man thought that Long Ming had molested his girlfriend and went forward to punch Long Ming.
Although Long Ming had drunk, his reaction was faster than an average person.
He stopped the young man’s hand that was waving at his face and shoved him. The young man took a few steps back.
The young man had not expected Long Ming to be so strong. He knew that he could not beat him, but he did not want to be humiliated in front of his girlfriend. He waved his hand. “If you’re my brother, go for him!”
Seven to eight young men rushed toward Long Ming.
Several of them were trained in Taekwondo.
If he was sober, these people would have been no match for him. However, he was drunk now and his reaction was not that agile.
Although he had beaten seven to eight young men to the ground in the end, his face had been punched and he was lying on the ground while panting heavily.
Seeing that Long Ming could deal with so many of them with his bare hands, the young men did not dare to provoke him anymore. They got into the car and left quickly.
Long Ming lay on the ground, staring at the dark night sky.
The skin at the corner of his mouth was injured, but he did not take off his mask, letting blood trickle down.
After a while, he stood up with a dark expression.
He took a few steps forward when he suddenly felt a dull pain in his mind, as if someone was digging at it with an awl.
“It’s my fault… If I didn’t use you and lie to you back then, you wouldn’t be living in pain and hatred…”
“I don’t know how to make it up to you… You won’t believe me no matter what I say…”
“Can you stop hating me? I don’t want to see you live in pain and hatred…”
“Long Ming, I don’t want to be an outlet for your anger. I don’t want to live without dignity…”
“Can we forget about each other?”
“If you forget me, you won’t live in hatred.”
“I will register your household register under my name. In the future, Wan Bao’s surname will be Long and you will take my surname too!”
Long Ying!
Scenes appeared in Long Ming’s mind.
Slowly, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes so red it seemed like blood was about to flow out.
It turned out that he had forgotten such important memories!
It was not that she had seduced him again, but she had used her life to gain his trust and help him become a noble king.
She had even given birth to a cute daughter for him. She had not tried to get pregnant via some underhanded methods.
Thinking of how he had ignored and humiliated her after forgetting those memories, Long Ming’s heart felt like it was about to split open.
He really deserved to die!
Long Ming pressed his swollen and aching temples, a layer of moisture appearing in his red eyes.
Where had she gone?
Where had she gone?
An idea suddenly flashed in Long Ming’s mind.
It was impossible for her to disappear without a trace in such a short period of time. He had gotten someone to investigate it, but there was no record of her leaving the country.
If she was still here, there seemed to be only one place that his men could not monitor.
The secluded forest!
Long Ming called Mo Tian and asked him to drive him to the secluded forest.
…
After Xiao Ying left the palace, she had indeed headed to the secluded forest.
The temporary shelter from when they were investigating the natural gas was still there and she lived there.
She did not know where she was going in the future. She just did not want to become Long Ming’s burden and dilemma.
Liu Yiyi, who had pushed the old lady into the water, had to be punished severely!
At night, when Xiao Ying was in a daze, she suddenly heard the sound of a car engine.
She immediately woke up.
She put on her coat, walked to the window, and looked out.
A black sedan stopped in the yard. The door opened and a tall black figure got out of the car.
Under the dim yellow car lights, Xiao Ying saw the man’s face clearly.
Who else could it be but Long Ming?
