Chapter 1636 - Believe Her


Chapter 1636: Believe Her

Ling Hui squatted in front of the paper box and looked at the portrait inside.

Ling Hui had never seen Tang Xi’s mother, but Tang Xi did not look like Father Tang. He probably looked like his mother.

Tang Xi was extremely handsome and his mother was naturally a rare beauty.

Ling Hui was right. Tang Xi really looked like his mother.

When Tang Xi’s mother was young, she must have had many boys wooing her.

Staring at Tang Xi’s mother’s portrait for a while, Ling Hui got up and prepared to look for other clues in the storeroom.

Suddenly, she heard a soft sound.

Ling Hui’s heart tightened in fear.

No matter how bold she was, she was still a woman.

Hearing the sound, she still felt a little scared.

She slowly turned around and looked toward the door.

Seeing a tall black figure standing at the door, Ling Hui almost fell.

Then, the black figure said, “What are you doing here?”

Hearing Tang Xi’s voice, Ling Hui patted her chest.

With a loud noise, Tang Xi turned on the lights in the storeroom.

Ling Hui was not used to the sudden light. She raised her hand and covered her eyes.

Tang Xi strode toward Ling Hui and grabbed her slender wrist.

“Why are you here?” His handsome face was unusually dark.

His father and Auntie Ping had gone on a business trip and Tang Xi had given the maid leave. He was the only one in the villa.

He had not expected Ling Hui to run to the storeroom.

Ling Hui retracted her wrist that was grabbed by the man. He had used too much strength just now and there were faint red marks on her fair skin.

Ling Hui took a deep breath to calm herself down. “I heard a lot about him and your mother from my father.”

At the mention of this, Tang Xi’s expression darkened.

Ling Hui looked at Tang Xi’s red eyes and then at the portrait in the box. “Are you like your father, thinking that your mother had an affair and wanted to elope with my father to betray the Tang family?”

Tang Xi pursed his lips tightly and did not speak, his jaw tense.

Ling Hui almost suspected that he would strangle her to death if she said another word.

But since he had found out that she was here, there were some things she had to say.

“My father didn’t cheat on your mother. There was a misunderstanding in this matter!” Ling Hui pointed at the portrait in the box. “Such an important thing was broken. Did your father explain to you that the servant broke it accidentally?”

Tang Xi looked at Ling Hui and frowned slightly. “How did you know?”

“That day, I came to help your stepmother decide on the style and size of the jewelry and accidentally saw it. She threw your mother’s portrait on the floor and got the maid to take the blame for it. After your father came back, she acted pitiful and made your father hate your mother even more.”p

Tang Xi strode forward and stood in front of Ling Hui.

His slender fingers grabbed Ling Hui’s chin. “Who let you slander Auntie Ping like this?”

Ling Hui’s eyelashes fluttered.

She should have expected that Tang Xi would have some feelings for Madam Liu.

If not, he would not have accepted his father marrying Madam Liu.

Ling Hui took a step back. Suddenly, she picked up a piece of glass and before Tang Xi could react, she slit her wrist.

Blood immediately started to flow out.

Tang Xi’s pupils constricted and the alcohol in his head disappeared immediately, clearing his mind.

He looked at Ling Hui in disbelief. He went forward and snatched the shard from her hand. “What are you doing?”

He turned and was about to go upstairs to get the first-aid kit when Ling Hui grabbed him with her other hand.

“I just wanted to tell you that I didn’t lie at all. Your mother’s portrait was really broken on purpose by Madam Liu.”

Tang Xi froze.

After a while, he pulled Ling Hui’s hand away and left the storeroom.

Ling Hui looked at his back and a sense of helplessness spread in the depths of her heart.

Did he still not believe her?

However, thinking about it, the Auntie Ping he was talking about had lived in the Tang family for many years. She must be very good to him usually.

It was understandable that he did not believe her.

Ling Hui looked down at her bleeding wrist and laughed at herself.

She did not know where she had gotten the courage to do such a daring thing!

Ling Hui took out a handkerchief and pressed the wound.

After a while, the man returned.

A small medicine box appeared in his hand.

He grabbed her injured wrist and took out a cotton swab and disinfectant from the medicine box.

Ling Hui looked at the man who was disinfecting his wound. He had his eyes lowered, had thick and long eyelashes, a straight nose, and thin lips… She did not know why, but when she had looked at him in the past, she had always felt that he was unfaithful and indecent, and was not a reliable man. But looking at him now, she found that he was really handsome, wild, and charming.

Tang Xi found that Ling Hui’s beautiful eyes were staring straight at him. He felt uncomfortable being stared at and his ears started to heat up. “What are you looking at?”

Ling Hui smiled and curved her red lips. “You look handsome.”

The man who was good with words in front of women seemed to be stumped by Ling Hui’s words.

He lowered his eyes and continued to treat her wound.

Ling Hui saw the redness on his ear and smiled charmingly. “Are you embarrassed?”

“Miss Ling, please be decent.”

“How am I indecent?”

After treating her wound, Tang Xi ignored her.

He squatted in front of the box and looked at Mrs Tang’s portrait.

He was looking at her very seriously. The side of his face had a heart-stopping effect.

Ling Hui did not know what he was looking at. She squatted beside him and looked at the portrait with him.

After about ten minutes, he suddenly took out a pair of tweezers from the small medicine box.

Ling Hui saw him holding a pair of forceps and picking out a white piece of fur from the broken glass.

If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to tell that there was a small piece of fur in the glass.

Ling Hui’s mind spun a few times and suddenly remembered that when she came that day, Liu Ping seemed to have been wearing white slippers with fur.

Ling Hui’s eyes moved. She looked at the man’s handsome side profile and asked softly, “Do you believe what I said?”

He must have believed it. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have squatted in front of the portrait for so long just to find a tiny strand of hair.

Tang Xi closed his eyes, his jaw clenched tightly and the expression on his face was unprecedentedly cold.

Ling Hui could understand what he was feeling now. People that he had trusted for a long time were not as they appeared on the surface. No one could take that blow!

After a while, Tang Xi looked at Ling Hui. “What did your father say to you?”

Ling Hui told Tang Xi everything her father said.

“Think about it. Your mom donated a kidney to my mom. If she really wanted to have something with my dad, she could have made a request then, right? Not only did she not make any requests, she even asked my dad not to mention her in front of Mom in order not to disturb my dad and mom’s relationship. Don’t you think your mom is a very kind person?”
