Chapter 9 - Nobody hurts my wife and go unscathed

Immediately they entered the car, Zhang Linfen looked at her cheek and raised his hands to careless it trying to ease the pain a little.

Li Xie blushed, she wasn't the same fearless girl who just bullied two girls.

"Zhang Linfen, it's ok,an ointment will do just fine"she said but he didn't answer.

He careless it a little harder as she winced in pain,his face turned deadly cold as he saw her movements.

He released her and hugged her.

"Sorry i didn't save you in time"Zhang Linfen said.

Li Xie was stunned as she forcefully released herself from his grip.

"It's not your fault,you didn't know that she would attack again. Let's go home"she said making his heart warm when he heard 'home'.

He started the engine and drove towards the mansion, Li Xie opened the door and got out.

"Do you need me to apply ointment for you?"he asked with a concerned face as she shook her head.

"No need, where's the first aid kit?".

"On the left side of the drawer".

"Okay"she followed him inside and left for her room,her cheek was really hurting right now.

She has been slapped two times today at the same cheek.

She entered her room and checked by the left side of the drawer and saw the first aid kit, she carried an ointment and applied it on her cheek as she winced in pain.

'KNOCK' 'KNOCK'.

She heard a knock on her door and stood up to answer, thinking it was Zhang Linfen,her heart started papillating inside her chest.

She opened the door only to see a maid standing outside the door, she didn't know why she felt a bit disappointed when she didn't see him.

She can't be falling for him,of course not. She's only married for half a day to a stranger she had a one night stand with because of her terrible background.

Her life is truly complicated.

"Young madam, the boss said that i should inform you that he won't be home today and you should have lunch and dinner without him"Li Xie felt distraught, she was kind of already missing him.

"Thank you,you can go"the maid bowed and walked away, leaving Li Xie alone with her thoughts.

If only she had accepted his proposal in helping her rub the ointment, he would have stayed a little bit, she closed the door and lied on the bed thinking of Fu Yohan and Zhang Linfen together, wondering how her life would be like if she had married Fu Yohan and what will happen now that she had married Zhang Linfen.

The door was knocked upon again as she stood up and answered it,this time it was the butler,he bowed respectfully.

"Young madam,lunch is ready and Young master personally asked me to call you down for lunch and dinner"he said with uptmost respect,one could see that he had worked for the Zhang's for almost a decade.

She didn't feel like going to the lonely place alone,it was too large.

The last time she was with grandfather and Zhang Linfen which was fun than her dinner with the wen's.

She was better off sitting alone.

"Am not hungry"she said but the butler was persistent.

"Young master said it's either you eat or have him come over and force you"he said as she thought the second option wasn't that bad but she couldn't have him leave whatever he's doing to come to him.

Either way, she's really not hungry.

"How will Zhang Linfen react when he hears that you're trying to threaten me to eat"the butler was surprised by her change of words,his Lady boss is really clever and him as a average man wouldn't want to witness his boss wrath after enjoying his boss happiness.

"Am sorry, young madam, I'll take my leave"he bowed again and left as she closed the door.

6:00pm.

It was dinner time and somebody came to knock again as she opened the door to see the butler again.

"Young madam, it's already dinner time. I came to call you".

"It's still the same as lunch and am really busy"the butler didn't challenge her and left.

She closed the door and carried her new phone, logging into weibo, she checked for the trending news as her eyes almost bulged out of their sockets.

'THE SHEN AT THE VERGE OF BANKRUPTCY'.

The Shen's are the owners of the Shen's oil and gas industry, their only daughter is sunami, the girl who slapped Li Xie.

Finding out that their company are almost bankrupted is a shock to her, their company is successful, no flaws but what happened?.

Li Xie logged out and thought of the person that might have done that but the only person that came to her mind was Zhang Linfen.

She fell asleep while smiling.

The next day when she woke up, she was in a somebody strong embrace and the person was unwilling to let go.

She looked up only to see Zhang Linfen smiling at her.

"Good morning"he greeted her, she looked up and rubbed her eyes.

"When did you get home?"she mumbled out as he released her from his hug.

"Just not,how is your cheek?"she had totally forgotten about it but he still remembered which melted her heart.

"It's fine".

"I heard that you didn't eat yesterday,were you missing me that much?"he teased her as she blushed.

"Of course not,i wasn't that hungry"she said.

"Okay,get ready for breakfast. I'll be waiting for you downstairs"he stood up and walked downstairs.

She hurriedly got dressed and went downstairs and sat down on the dinning table as the maid served the food when Li Xie decided to ask the question.

"Were you the one who did it?"she asked him as he already knew he would ask that and she already knew so there's no need to hide it.

"Yes".

"Why,i mean you've only knew me for a day. Why are you helping me?"she asked curiously.

"Nobody hurts my wife and go unscathed.
