Chapter 229 - She Is Fine Now.
Liwei sat beside Xie Ming's side and kept looking at her pale and sickly face. His gaze was gentle and warm. He was holding her hand in his and kept rubbing it lightly.
At that time, the Butler lightly knocked on the door. Hearing the sound Liwei looked towards the door and glared at him for making noise.
Xie Ming was resting and he does not want to disturb her.
Butler was scared of seeing the cold gaze from Liwei and hesitated to speak.
Liwei looked at the wall clock and realized that it's 7 pm already and went out of the room to talk to him.
" What's wrong?"
" Old Mr. and Mrs. Jin came to see Young Mistress with Grandfather Jin and Master Liang."
( The butler was referring to Jin Liwei's father and mother as Old Mr. and Mrs. Jin.)
Liwei raised his brows and sighed and carefully shut the door and went downstairs followed by the butler.
In the living room, Mother Jin was sitting on the sofa and was sobbing while Father Jin was trying to soothe her.
Whereas Grandfather Jin was also sitting at the couch with the glum expression on his face and was silently listening to the conversation between Jin Liang.
When Liwei brought Xie Ming to the Jin Villa he has asked Gu Shao to inform the Jin Mansion and ask them to not worry.
But he was prepared to witness this scene because the incident was no small and it could not be kept hidden either.
He has to tell his family about this sooner or later so he chooses to tell the truth so that it won't hurt them more because they did not get to know from some outsider.
When Mother Jin saw Liwei coming down from the stairs she suddenly got up from the sofa and walked to him with her unstable steps, " How is she now? Did she get hurt anywhere?"
Mother Jin was so worried when Jin Liang told her that Xie Ming got kidnapped and Liwei rescued her.
She left the house only for some hours and got into such big trouble. She started to treat Xie Ming as her real daughter.
She couldn't imagine the trauma that she has suffered and Liwie didn't bring her to the Jin Mansion either so she was worried if she was fine or not.
Gu Shao called Jin Liang when they arrived at the villa and told him what happened. He didn't go into many details because the doctor has come at that time and he has so much work to do.
Jin Liang was stunned to hear this news. At that time, he felt guilty because he didn't go to pick Xie Ming just because he went to join the producer for lunch and asked her to go alone.
If he had not gone there and picked her up himself than this wouldn't have happened. He was blaming himself for all this and he was afraid that Liwei will also blame him.
But he couldn't hide away from him and shrugs his responsibilities off. So he told his family members and came to visit Xie Ming and Liwei.
When he saw Mother Jin crying like this, his mood worsened making him feel more guilty.
Liwei who just came downstairs stared at his mother whose eyes were swollen and face was pale and worried. He sighed heavily and said in a low voice, " She is fine now. Don't worry too much. I am here to take care of her."
Father Jin walked up to him and asked, " Why did you bring her here? You should have taken her to the Jin Maison directly. There are so many people there and we could also take care of her." he said in domineering voice.
It's very rare for Father Jin to get mad. He knows that Jin Liwie must be flustered with all this happening but he could've brought her to the Jin Mansion and there are so many people. They would have to take care of her.
Liwie didn't say anything and kept quiet. He has his reasons why he didn't take her to Jin Mansion.
At that time, Xie Ming's clothes were torn and were wrapped only in his coat. It would not be a good choice for him to take Xie Ming to the Jin Mansion in that condition because everyone was there including Father and grandfather and she will feel uncomfortable and embarrassed later.
Though it does not matter to him because it was an emergency but it might be different from the woman's perspective, so he decided to take her to Jin Villa.
Moreover, her mother would have been extremely worried about her seeing in that condition.
Liwei looked at his father with a blank expression and did not say anything. Father Jin was getting agitated at his behavior.
" You. Why are…" before Father Jin could complete his words and scold him, Grandfather Jin came to him and hit him on the shoulder with his stick lightly.
" Ouch. Father, what are you doing?" Father Jin looked at Grandfather Jin with wronged expression.
Even Mother Jin at the side was also frightened to see her father in law getting angry.
"How dare you yell at Liwei? Is this the time to make a ruckus about why he didn't bring Xie Ming to Jin Mansion? We are here to see the child and you're shouting like a mad man. Is that how I raised you?" Grandfather Jin didn't leave any room for Father Jin to refute.
Liwei and Liang were stunned to see the strong demeanor of their grandfather. Only Old man can shut father Jin's mouth.
Father Jin looked at Liwei and glared at him. Liwei didn't say anything and glanced at Jin Liang who was standing in the corner.
When Jin Liang met with Liwei's eyes, he immediately hung his head down. He was too ashamed to meet with his brother's gaze now.
Grandfather Jin looked at Liwei and asked, " Is it fine for us to meet her now? We all came to see her and was worried about her."
Liwei looked at him and said, " Grandfather, it's not convenient to see her now. She is sleeping and the doctor has given her medicine and she needs rest. You can meet her some other day."
" But I can assure you that she is fine," Liwei said in a calm voice. Because he knows that his family was equally worried about Xie Ming.
Mother Jin was hesitant to leave without meeting Xie Ming but Grandfather Jin spoke, " It's alright. Then we won't disturb you further. We will go back and you also take good care of her and yours as well."
Mother Jin hesitantly agreed and said, " Yes. You need to take care of yourself for Xie Ming to get well. Otherwise, if you don't take care of yourself than how could you take care of her?"
Liwei didn't say anything and maintained his indifferent expressions.
Father Jin looked at Liwei and said in a low voice, " Take care of yourself too. I know you were also shocked as well. But that little girl must be more scared and shocked by this incident. So take care of her well.
Liwei raised his brows in surprise when he heard his father's words. He nodded at his father's words.
They all turned to leave but Jin Liang still stood in the corner.
Mother Jin looked at him and said, " Aren't you coming with us?"
Jin Liang who was standing there in a daze looked over and saw Liwei's face which was looking at him with intent.
" Brother, I am sorry. It's my fault that Xie Ming got into trouble. If you want you can punish me. I won't run from my responsibility." he said with his trembling voice with his head hung down.
Mother Jin and Father Jin looked at each other. They all forget about him because he was hiding in the corner.
They know that Liwei asked him to take care of Xie Ming and told him to drop and pick her off. They were both worried about him because Jin Liang was very scared and feeling guilty that he didn't take care of us.
They all looked at Liwei who was indifferently looking at him.
