Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

Chapter 1622: Can We Start Again?

Ling Hui’s heart ached when she heard Tang Xi’s words.

She knew that her sadness was nothing compared to what he had experienced with her.

Ling Hui still had many things to say to him, but Father Tang was here. She could tell that Father Tang did not like her, so she could not remain there. “I’ll leave first.” Then, she looked at Father Tang. “Goodbye, Uncle.”

After Ling Hui left, Tang Xi looked at Father Tang, who was still staring at the door of the ward after Ling Hui had left. He frowned. “Dad, do you know Ling Hui?”

Father Tang sat by the bed, a complicated expression appearing on his face that Tang Xi could not understand. “You’re already the person in charge of the Tang family. There are some things I don’t want to keep from you. About your mother…”

Father Tang spoke for a long time. When Tang Xi finished listening, he frowned and remained silent for a long time.

“This is probably the so-called ill-fated relationship. You’ve fallen for Dai Lang’s daughter again! I’ve already told you the truth. You can decide what to do!”

Father Tang looked at Tang Xi with a tired expression. “I brought your Auntie Ping over. She will take care of you during this period.”

Auntie Ping was Mother Tang’s best friend when she had still been alive. After her husband passed away in an accident, she had started working for the Tang’s family because of Mother Tang’s introduction.

She was now Father Tang’s right-hand man.

Tang Xi had interacted more with Auntie Ping than his mother since he was young, and his feelings for her were no less than those toward his mother.

“Dad, you have to worry about the company while I’m hospitalized. Let Auntie Ping work in the company. I only need Fang Ye here.”

Seeing that Tang Xi was insistent, Father Tang could not force him anymore.

After hesitating for a moment, Mr Tang asked, “Ah Xi, I think the Tenth Princess is loyal to you. You’re not young anymore. It’s time to consider marriage!”

Tang Xi did not reject him as he did before and nodded. “I’ll consider it.”

…

Ling Hui found a hotel and rested for the night.

The next day, she went to the hospital again.

When she arrived, Luo Di was already there. Luo Di was talking and laughing with Tang Xi, who was lying on the bed.

From that day onwards, Ling Hui realized that Tang Xi had become a stranger to her.

He seemed to have become the playboy from before. Apart from ignoring her, he would joke around with the opposite sex when he was awake, sometimes with Luo Di, and sometimes with the young and beautiful nurse.

The nurses all liked Tang Xi very much. He was handsome, flirtatious, wild, uninhibited, and charming. Every time a nurse came out of his ward, her face would turn red.

Ling Hui felt that he was deliberately making her hate him. He clearly knew that she did not like his actions, but that made him even more unbridled.

He ignored her every day when she came to look for him. She did not even have the chance to talk to him and could only stand at the door and watch him joke with other women.

After some time, he was able to walk and was ready to be discharged.

Ling Hui still came. She did not believe that he would keep rejecting her.

The day before he was discharged, he asked Fang Ye to call her into the ward.

Ling Hui walked into the ward and looked at the man who was walking out of the washroom. He had tidied his hair, shaved, and changed his clothes. He was wearing a fitting black shirt and perfectly ironed pants of the same color.

“Miss Ling, do you know what day it is today?” Tang Xi sat on the sofa, crossing his long legs and placing them on the coffee table. He looked up at Ling Hui lazily and devilishly.

Ling Hui pursed her red lips. “What day?”

“The day our one-month agreement expires.” Tang Xi raised his eyebrows and stared at Ling Hui. “Your predictions were really accurate. After a month, we are still strangers.”

Ling Hui pursed her red lips tightly, her beautiful eyes staring at Tang Xi’s handsome and flamboyant face. “Because of Ling Motian? I have nothing to do with him anymore. Tang Xi, I didn’t understand you in the past and didn’t know what you did for me. I always thought that Ling Motian was my savior. If I knew it was you, I wouldn’t have been so cold to you in the past…”

Hearing Ling Hui’s words, Tang Xi frowned slightly.

Had she agreed to marry him because she had thought that Ling Motian had saved her before?

Seeing Tang Xi fall into silence, Ling Hui walked to his side and sat down. “Tang Xi, although the agreement is over, we can start to understand each other again, right?”

Tang Xi looked at the beautiful and cold side profile of the woman beside him and his expression was dazed for a moment. The corners of his lips lifted up. “Miss Ling, just because you’re repaying someone’s kindness, you can marry any man you want? Isn’t such a relationship too cheap?”

Ling Hui’s heart sank.

She thought that he understood her. If she had not been saved during the kidnapping, she might not have been able to live.

The person who saved her had an extraordinary meaning to her. She did not think that her act of repaying her kindness was cheap!

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the bitterness in her nose and said to him as calmly as she could, “At that time, I didn’t think that Ling Motian would be despicable enough to pretend to be you. I didn’t investigate clearly and believed him. It was my fault. Tang Xi, there are many things that I didn’t do well, but I’m not a saint. How can I not make mistakes? Can you give me another chance?”

Tang Xi raised his hand and held Ling Hui’s slender shoulders. He pulled her into his arms with a little strength.

Ling Hui’s nose bumped into his chest and her heart tightened when she smelled the strong masculine scent on him.

A devilish smile appeared on his face as he looked down at her. “Miss Ling, what should I do? I don’t have much interest in you anymore. It’s probably because I’ve liked you for too long and found out that you’re nothing much. I’m tired of you.”

His handsome face leaned toward her and the breath from his nose landed on her fair skin. Ling Hui froze and looked up into his devilish eyes. Her red lips lifted slightly. “Really?”

Faced with his playful eyes and hurtful words, she did not avoid or struggle at all. Her fair fingers caressed his scarlet lips. “I want to see how you hate it.”

Before he could say anything, she suddenly got up and sat on his lap.

Seeing her actions, a trace of surprise flashed past Tang Xi’s eyes.

She rarely took the initiative in front of men, but when she did, she was naturally charming.

Tang Xi’s lips moved and was about to say something when she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.

Tang Xi froze when he was suddenly kissed by her soft red lips.

She imitated how he kissed her in the past, sucking his lips. At first, it was just a small taste, but slowly, she became bold.

The fragrance, soft red lips, and the teasing made Tang Xi lose himself in an instant, almost falling into her gentleness.

Just as Ling Hui’s hands were about to unbutton his shirt, he pushed her away. “Enough!”
