An Exclusive Love Chapter 434 - We Were Just Hurt Inside

In the next few days, Jiang Rui forbade those guys from coming. Bear and Ah Zi went out to enjoy the time just the two of them while Xiao Si was asked to stay in the villa by Scar. Scar said that he did it to protect his own virginity.

Han Xueying suggested several times that Xiao Si should move out, but he wouldn’t go. Scar pretended that he couldn’t do anything about it. Han Xueying almost felt that there was something abnormal between them.

On the thirteenth of the New Year, everyone finished their vacation. So Jiang Rui took Chen Chen to an island of the Wan family by boat, while others took the plane to go back to the capital.

Han Xueying pulled the suitcase and said goodbye to Scar unwillingly.

“Where will you go?” Scar smiled and said, “You told me that you don’t have any relatives, didn’t you? Then you can stay with us.”

“Is that okay?” Han Xueying’s smile was too much to hide. She looked in Jiang Rui’s direction.

Scar saw him too, “Our master won’t mind our personal affairs.”

“Those words were meaningful”, Han Xueying thought in mind. Those days, Xiao Si stayed between them every day, which made her less confident towards Scar. At the moment, it seemed that Scar still had a feeling for her.

“Then… I will have to trouble you.” She gave Scar an attractive smile.

Jiang Rui saw that Chen Chen kept talking to Ah Zi without an end, so he stared at Bear.

Bear understood and took Ah Zi away. Chen Chen followed Jiang Rui onto the boat and saw the island of the Wan family at dusk.

“This year, Tuan Zi is here. So they decorated the island like that.”

The whole island was bright and shining. It was all full of colorful lanterns. They observed it from the boat and felt it was as if they were entering a fairy tale.

Getting close to the sh.o.r.e, they heard Tuan Zi’s voice far away.

“Dad! Mum!” The little figure ran to the dock and there was another small figure following her, “Sis, wait for Junjun! Wait for me!”

Chen Chen ran out rapidly and held Tuan Zi up, “Happy New Year!”

“Happy New Year, Mum! Where’s my present?” Tuan Zi looked at her smilingly. Chen Chen pouted, “You must have gotten a lot of red packets from your grandpa and grandma. And you still want a gift?”

Jiang Rui extended his hands and said, “Come here.”

“Dad!” Tuan Zi rushed over and said, “I missed you so much.”

“Um, I missed Tuan Zi too.” Jiang Rui held his daughter with one arm, while pulling Chen Chen with the other hand. The little woman was still jealous because her daughter obviously showed more pa.s.sion to her dad.

Wan Junmin cutely looked at Chen Chen. Chen Chen was about to hold him up when Jiang Rui said, “Don’t hold him. Too heavy.

“Then we can hold hands!” Chen Chen quickly gave her hand to Wan Junmin.

Arriving in a path, Chen Huan and Xin Qing stood there and looked at them smilingly.

“Mum!” Chen Chen walked faster and amended, “Aunt Qing.”

“What did you call me?” Xin Qing glared.

Chen Chen smiled foolishly. “Mum!”

Jiang Rui walked to them too and said, “Mum.”

Chen Huan smiled widely without knowing and laughed while looking at Chen Chen.

“Let’s go back first!” Xin Qing held Chen Chen’s hand and said, “Liuliu, you should come to my room after dinner. I have something for you.”

Wan Qingsi was playing with the little baby with Ah Sha and greeted them the moment he saw them. Especially Ah Sha who strangely shouted to Chen Chen, “Fighting!”

“Follow me.” Wan Qingsi said to Jiang Rui with a dark face.

Chen Chen felt the atmosphere was strange. When they were about to have dinner, Boss Wan and Wan Qingsi held Jiang Rui back.

“Your face!” Chen Chen asked, astonished, “Did… did they hit you?”

Wan Qingsi’s face turned completely dark, “What do you mean by they? I’m your elder brother by the way.”

“Brother!” Chen Chen smiled to please him. Then she pulled Boss Wan to sit and asked, “Dad, why did you beat Brother Xiao Rui?”

Boss Wan rolled his eyes at his daughter helplessly and said, “From now on, if he dares to be mean to you, I’ll beat him to death.”

“No!” Chen Chen spoke for Jiang Rui, “Brother Xiao Rui is nice to me. He won’t be mean to me.”

Wan Qingsi stared at her angrily and said, “You don’t help your own family.”

She stuck out her tongue at her brother. Then Chen Chen advised after she saw the bruises on Jiang Rui’s face, “Brother Xiao Rui, I can rub some medical oil on you.”

“You can go now!” Xin Qing hurried to drive them away. Then Chen Chen noticed that Ying Qingcang was not there.

Before she could ask, she was pushed away by Jiang Rui.

“Brother Xiao Rui, do you know where Uncle Ying is?” Chen Chen asked when she opened the medical case.

Jiang Rui touched the bruises on his face and said carelessly, “His father pa.s.sed away.”

As for Ying Hao, n.o.body felt emotionally connected to him except for Ying Qingcang. The hardship Xin Qing had been through was mostly indirectly caused by him. Although he didn’t end up well and had to live unconsciously in the secret base with the old village head, it might be a relief for him that he had died.

“Ah, that’s all right for him. He won’t have to be in pain anymore.” Chen Chen felt a little sad. She went to the base once when she was young to let the village head check her body. There she saw Ying Hao who was sitting, blank faced.

None of them knew that the old man was conscious inside, but he just couldn’t express himself.

Jiang Rui saw her speechless, so he pointed at the bruises on his face. “I was beaten because of you.”

“Why?” Chen Chen was confused.

“Your father knows that we had s.e.x and asked me if it was me who forced you. I admitted it.” Jiang Rui made up a lie calmly.

Chen Chen felt guilty foolishly. “But… but it was me…”

“Yes. But I can’t tell your father and brother that you raped me!” Jiang Rui sighed and added, “Or you’ll be disgraced.”

“Brother… Xiao Rui.” Chen Chen’s tears poured out. “I’m sorry…”

Jiang Rui felt guilty and hurriedly held her in his arms, “Come here! Don’t cry. It’s okay for me to be beaten a bit. It doesn’t hurt.”

“It’s swollen. How can it be not painful!” Chen Chen carefully rubbed the ointment on him.

“I will be all right if you give me a kiss,” The man said shamelessly.

Chen Chen glared at him with a red face.

In the restaurant.

“You two overdid it. Why did you beat him so hard?” Chen Huan punched Boss Wan. If she knew the men would be as mean, she wouldn’t have told them about their daughter and Jiang Rui.

It was heard from Jiang Rui in Xin Qing’s call. If he hadn’t said it, the two of them wouldn’t know of it.

“You thought he would be so obedient? He did it on purpose.” Boss Wan’s face turned dark. “He let us beat him on purpose.”

Wan Qingsi lifted his clothes. “My father and I are hurt inside.”

There were big bruises on his chest, which looked to be extremely painful.

“No wonder that boy didn’t hide and allowed for us to beat his face. He must be fooling that stupid girl now,” Boss Wan clenched his fists and said, “I’ll beat him hard someday.”

After a while, Jiang Rui and Chen Chen went out. Chen Chen’s mouth was red and swollen, which was a clear sign that told what they just did.

“Let’s eat! Let’s eat!” Xin Qing said smilingly. She was happy that her son finally got what he wanted. She might be able to have a grandson in the near future.

They were very happy there while it was heavy and sad on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

Long Zhen’ao was eating glutinous dumplings when he listened to the old man across to him absent-mindedly.

“You went back and sabotaged my plan the last time. Now you don’t want to be in this experiment. What do you want?” The old man was a foreigner who looked older than the one who had gone to the capital.

Seeing Long Zhen’ao who kept eating and ignoring him, the old man got angrier and pushed the table, “I didn’t bring you up to let you be who you want to be. You must go back to the capital in three days. No matter what you do, you have to bring Jiang Rui’s daughter back.”

“You said she might not be that baby, right?” Long Zhen’ao wiped off the hot water on his body and added, “You know who Jiang Rui is. Now that you dare to kidnap his daughter, you really don’t want your base, right?”

“So I’m asking you to do it.” The old man smiled, “It’s okay if you can’t bring her here. But you have to figure out the genes of Jiang Rui and his daughter.”

Long Zhen’ao stood up and said, “We had a deal. You wouldn’t force me to do anything.”

The man’s eyes turned cold, “Don’t forget how your father died! If it hadn’t been the Wan family, your father wouldn’t have died. Even if Jiang Rui is not my target, his woman Chen Chen is Boss Wan’s daughter. You don’t want to be avenged?”

“I got it.” After quite a while, Long Zhen’ao nodded and said, “I will set out on time.”

In the capital, there were lanterns hung all over the streets, which was very festive.

The family of three went back home. But it was different that time.

Chen Chen became more and more dependent on Jiang Rui, although she strangely felt worried and fearful sometimes. When they lived in the Wan family estate, they spent a whole night by the sea being together. That was the first time that Chen Chen had accepted a man while conscious.

As for Jiang Rui, Chen Chen had changed her att.i.tude towards him since that night. She was like a child with him and kept staring at him. She was not afraid of him anymore and punched him every once in a while.

Tuan Zi and Xin Qing shared the hope that there would soon be a younger brother with them.

Ah, there was another one.

Hei Zi: “Woof!”

…Couldn’t read it. So let’s just ignore it.

After the weekend, Jiang Rui went to the troops to report and delivered Tuan Zi to school on the way. Then he dropped Chen Chen at the store.

“You’re so slow!” Ah Zi stood at the gate of the store and Bear was feeding her with hot soy milk.

Chen Chen always thought Bear treated Ah Zi like his daughter. But she didn’t know that Jiang Rui was the same way to her in other people’s eyes.

“There’s nothing today, so I can take you to eat at noon.” Jiang Rui touched Chen Chen’s head but didn’t leave until he saw she walked in with Ah Zi. Bear jumped into his car and said, “Master, I’ll leave the car here. If they have something to do, it will be more convenient with a car.”

Jiang Rui got the car started, frowned and then he said, “Liuliu doesn’t have a driver’s license.”

“My Ah Zi has one!”

Jiang Rui was more worried after his words. Ah Zi was crazy all the time. She couldn’t be a reliable person.

Chen Chen and Ah Zi cleaned the store and placed the lucky Totem they bought at the Great Barrier Reef.

“Bear said that Scar let Han Xueying move in the house I used to stay.” Ah Zi felt uncomfortable, “If I knew it would be like that, I would have dirtied all the wall paper and carpet.”

“Does that house belong to the Wen family?” Chen Chen asked curiously.

Ah Zi rolled eyes at her. “Your G.o.d of War doesn’t like to owe anyone anything, so he asked Bear to buy the house when I lived there.”

“Don’t be so angry. Where she lives has nothing to do with us. We can’t even see it.” Chen Chen just finished the words when the bell which was used to welcome the guests rang.
