The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

Chapter 184 Fate Has Its Own Will

Yan Lin is not dead?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao sneered: "If I can kill him once, I can kill him a second time."

Bai Zhi subconsciously shrank her neck.

I felt that Brother Chen looked extremely fierce at that moment.

"Brother Chen, have some tea." Bai Zhi quickly poured tea and handed it to him.

After taking the water and drinking some warm water, Chen Xiao asked, "You mean I fainted at the Yan family's place that time?"

Bai Zhi nodded: "Yes, you were unconscious for several days and only woke up after returning to Jingzhou."

Jingzhou?

Chen Xiao slightly raised his eyelashes, "Have we returned to Jingzhou during this time?"

"Correct."

Bai Zhi told Chen Xiao about the situation after he woke up.

When Chen Xiao learned that his IQ had regressed to that of a four-year-old, he fell silent.

Suddenly, he asked, "Didn't your sister-in-law come back to Jingzhou with us?"

Bai Zhi choked up.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao raised an eyebrow and smiled wickedly: "You've got some nerve, haven't you?"

Bai Zhi was immediately terrified, his legs trembling. He hurriedly tried to explain, "How could I possibly abandon my sister-in-law? Even if you gave me ten lives, I wouldn't dare!"

"So you just left her alone in Hong Kong like that?"

The man had an extremely aggressive and striking appearance. He was alright when he smiled, but when he had a cold expression, it was enough to terrify anyone.

Especially now.

Just seeing his cold face terrified Bai Zhi.

He quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "I was wrong, Brother Chen. I shouldn't have abandoned my sister-in-law and left her alone in Hong Kong."

Chen Xiao remained silent.

Bai Zhi subconsciously looked up, and when he met the man's sharp and cold eyes, he realized that Chen Xiao had seen through some of his little thoughts at a glance.

Bai Zhi pursed his lips, suppressing the carefree and irresponsible image he usually projected to outsiders.

"Chen Meng." He didn't call him Brother Chen.

"Your safety is the most important thing to me. As for my sister-in-law, I can only do my best, so—" Before she could finish speaking, Bai Zhi was kicked to her knees and fell to the ground.

Bai Zhi let out a muffled groan.

Then he heard Chen Xiao's voice coming down from above: "What did I tell you? No matter what happens, the safety of Yan Ting is the top priority. Don't you understand the meaning of 'top priority'? Do I need to point a gun at your head for you to remember these three words?"

Sweat beaded on Bai Zhi's forehead.

His face was ashen, but his tone was stubborn: "But I can't do it."

His life was saved by Chen Xiao.

He couldn't put anyone before Chen Xiao, not even Yan Ting.

Chen Xiao's eyes were covered with a thick layer of ice: "If you can't do it, then get lost."

"I don't need subordinates who don't obey my orders."

Bai Zhi did not move; he remained kneeling on the ground, motionless.

Chen Xiao's anger was something he had expected.

Bai Zhi could have easily brought Yan Ting back to Jingzhou, but he didn't.

He felt that Yanting was a ticking time bomb at that time, and bringing it along would only increase the risk.

Moreover, he could tell that Yanting wanted to stay in Gangcheng.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Bai Zhi decided to bring Chen Xiao back to Jingzhou first.

For him, Chen Xiao's life was more important than anyone else's, including his own.

Jingzhou cannot do without Chen Xiao.

He can't leave either.

However, when Bai Zhi heard Chen Xiao tell him to get lost, he still felt fear and apprehension.

Just then, a woman's voice came.

That voice sounded familiar.

"Ah Xiao, it's me!"

The ward door opened, and standing in the doorway was Yanting.

Bai Zhi's originally dim eyes lit up when he saw Yan Ting.

"sister in law."

Yan Ting ignored him and kept looking at Chen Xiao.

To be honest, when Chen Xiao saw Yanting, he didn't feel the joy he had imagined; instead, he felt a strange unease.

He frowned slightly.

When Yan Ting saw that Chen Xiao was just staring at her without saying a word, a hint of impatience flashed in her eyes.

However, Chen Xiao keenly caught this fleeting expression.

Bai Zhi didn't see this scene. He pleaded with Yan Ting, "Sister-in-law, please beg for me, don't let Brother Chen kick me out."

Yan Ting was slightly taken aback.

She immediately raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong?"

At this moment, Chen Xiao said casually, "He didn't take good care of you, so I'm planning to get rid of him."

"Of course, if you want him to stay, I'll let him stay."

This clearly demonstrates how important Yanting's voice was to Chen Xiao.

Yan Ting looked as if she had just realized something and said, "So that's how it is."

Then she looked at Bai Zhi, who was kneeling on the ground with a hopeful expression, and smiled, "In that case, there's no need to keep her."

"??" Bai Zhi looked completely bewildered.

Chen Xiao didn't look at Bai Zhi's heartbroken eyes, but instead let out a short laugh.

at the same time.

Yan Ting was unaware of what was happening in the other ward; she was attempting to establish a mental link with the unconscious Yan Ting.

The link was intermittent and somewhat disjointed.

But it's not completely useless.

At the very least, she could enter Yanting's dream and try to communicate with him.

After dozens of attempts, on the 25th try, Yan Ting successfully entered Yan Ting's dream.

The moment she entered a dream, Yan Ting, lying on the hospital bed, slightly twitched her eyelids.

After Yan Ting entered the dream, she discovered that the world in the dream was not the real world.

It's not like another world.

She immediately guessed that the scenes inside were from the world of Yan Ting and Chen Xiao.

Yan Ting did not see Yan Ting appear; she only saw a couple.

What shocked her was that the couple looked almost exactly like Yan Xu and Yu Xin'er.

The only difference is that this couple looks younger and more elegant than Yanxu and Yu Xiner.

Unable to find Yanting, Yanting thought for a moment and decided to follow the couple to see what was going on.

So she followed behind the couple.

The couple looked very much in love.

Seeing the woman's protruding belly, Yan Ting knew that she was pregnant.

The man would occasionally stroke the woman's round belly and whisper, "My little girl, it's your daddy!"

The woman asked helplessly, "How can you be so sure it's a girl?"

The man replied firmly, "It must be my precious daughter. Honey, you don't know, I dreamt about our daughter the other day. She looks like a porcelain doll and she was smiling sweetly at me."

The woman paused, then glanced thoughtfully at her stomach: "Now that you mention it, I dreamt about it too."

Upon hearing this, the man exclaimed excitedly, "I told you it was my daughter!"

As Yan Ting listened to the couple's words, which were full of love and care for the baby in her belly, she couldn't help but feel envious and happy.

I feel happy for this child.

Later, she learned that the man's name was Yan Shi and the woman's name was Yu Xing.

Yu Xing looks just like Yu Xin'er, but she is actually more gentle and ethereal than Yu Xin'er. She is a well-known painter in the art world and has also founded many of her own art exhibitions.

As for Yan Shi, he has a more gentle and scholarly air than the hot-tempered Yan Xu. If you didn't know he was an entrepreneur, you might think he was a learned university professor.

quickly.

Yu Xing is about to give birth.

She was wheeled into the operating room.

Yan Ting tried to go in, and to her surprise, she actually got in.

Looking at Yu Xing, whose hair was disheveled and whose head was covered in sweat, she couldn't help but want to wipe her sweat for her.

Yu Xing vaguely felt someone wiping her sweat. Because the touch was very light, she didn't pay attention and thought it was a nurse wiping her sweat.

"Wow wow wow..."

The moment the baby cried, Yan Ting suddenly felt an inexplicable urge to cry.

Later, when Yan Ting saw Yu Xing holding the baby in her arms and calling her Zhizhi, she finally realized what was going on.

Yan Shi excitedly teased his daughter, "Daughter, I'm your dad. Look at me! I'm your dad! Your dad who loves you the most."

Yu Xing was both amused and exasperated: "Has Dad decided on a name yet?"

"It's settled. They said it will be a single name, just 'Ting'."

Yu Xing asked curiously, "Which ting?"

"A graceful pavilion."

At this point, Yan Shi complained, "Dad is really something, he insisted on competing with me for the name, even though the one I married sounds better."

Yu Xing fell silent as she thought about the names her husband had chosen.

Yan Shi was still talking to herself, saying, "Yan Ai Xing is such a nice song! Yan Xi Yu is good too!"

"..."

Yu Xing's lips twitched slightly: "If you really give Zhizhi a name like that, you might as well just sleep in the study from now on!"

Yan Shi was struck dumb, as if by a bolt from the blue: "No! Wife!"

When Yan Ting heard the baby's name, she had an indescribable feeling.

Unexpectedly, she saw Tingting at birth.

While everyone was resting, Yan Ting came to the baby and couldn't help but reach out to gently touch her.

To everyone's surprise, the baby opened its eyes.

Her eyes were big and watery.

Yan Ting was startled.

The baby seemed to see her and kept staring at her.

When the goose moves to the left, the baby's eyes turn to the left; when she moves to the right, the baby's eyes turn to the right.

Yan Ting couldn't help but whisper, "Little guy, you can see me, can't you?"

The baby is very well-behaved; he doesn't cry or fuss when he wakes up.

She couldn't hear Yan Ting's words, but that didn't stop her from smiling at Yan Ting.

That smile was so innocent that it melted Yan Ting's heart.

Yan Ting didn't know why she had returned to the time when Yan Ting was born, but she thought that perhaps it was fate.

She watched the baby babbling and toddling.

The little guy is growing up little by little.

In the whole family, the little guy is the little devil. No matter if he gets into trouble or is bullied, he has two older brothers and sisters who protect and pamper him.

Sometimes Yanting will play with the little one, building blocks together and playing on the slide together.

The little one can't really hide her existence; sometimes she'll secretly tell her mother that there's an angel sister who's always playing with her and telling her stories.

Yu Xing initially didn't take her daughter's words seriously, but some things that happened later forced her to admit that there was someone they couldn't see following her daughter.

That is, if it weren't for Yan Ting's reminder, the little guy would likely have been hurt when he encountered danger.

Because of this, the Yan family all knew of Yan Ting's existence.

Yan Ting was actually a little worried, afraid that the Yan family would be afraid of her presence, but to her surprise, everyone accepted her presence well.

Yu Xing would even ask the little one from time to time if she had anything she liked.

As if possessed, Yan Ting whispered, "Can I hug you?"

Yu Xing was slightly taken aback when she heard her daughter say that the other person wanted to hug her.

Seeing this, Yan Ting quickly said, "If you don't want to, then forget it."

To everyone's surprise, Yu Xing laughed and said, "Sure, you can hug me as many times as you want."

Then, the next second, she felt as if someone was gently lying in her arms, a feeling very similar to what she felt in the operating room.

Yu Xing gently raised her hand to stroke the person in her arms. Even though she couldn't see the other person, she still whispered gently, "Thank you for coming."

At that moment, Yan Ting was in tears.

So this is what a mother's love is like.

It's so warm and gentle.

Yu Xing's eyelashes trembled slightly as she felt something damp seeping into her knees.

Those were... tears.

For a moment, Yu Xing felt extremely sorry for the child.

When Yan Shi found out, she felt sorry for her: "Good child, you actually came to our Yan family, which means we are destined to be together. From now on, you are a member of our Yan family."

At this moment, the little one's older brothers and sisters also said, "Who bullied you? Tell us, and we'll protect you."

"I'll protect you too," Xiao Yanting said, patting her chest in a sweet, childlike voice.

Yan Ting was almost moved to tears by how adorable it was.

"Do you have a name?" asked Yan Shiqing, the eldest brother.

Yan paused for a moment, then said, "My name is Yan Ting."

The Yan family was stunned when they heard those two words.

"It only shares the same name as our family."

Yan Ting lowered her eyes: "It's different. My 'Ting' is the 'stop' in 'stop'."

"..."

half an hour.

Yan Shi said, "If you don't mind, I'll give you a name."

"I'll call you Yanxi."

Yanxi?

Yan Ting murmured to herself, "Yan Xi... Yan Xi..." The more she said the name, the brighter her eyes became.

"Thank you, I really like the character '曦' (Xi)."

From then on, she was called Yanxi.

Yanxi also saw Xiao Chenxiao behind her.

As a child, Chen Xiao had a penchant for pranks and would often play tricks on the adults.

But sometimes he acts like a little adult and likes to pretend to be mature, especially in front of Xiao Yanting, where he likes to show off things that the other person doesn't know.

At times like this, Yanxi couldn't help but pout and say, "Just keep pretending!"

Even so, she still hoped that Chen Xiao and Yan Ting could be happy and stay together for a long, long time.

However, this wish was thwarted.

Yanxi had thought she could stay with the two little ones as they grew up.

But as time went by, Yan Ting gradually forgot about her existence, as did the Yan family.

No matter how hard Yanxi tried to communicate with Yanting, it was to no avail.

Most importantly, she had to stop Yanting from boarding that plane.

"Yanting—"

"you come back."

Yanxi shouted desperately.

However, Yanting couldn't hear it at all.

Left with no other choice, she boarded that flight with Yanting.

On the plane, Yanting dozed off.

But she always felt like someone was calling her.

Then, for some reason, she was plunged into darkness.

……

When Yanxi regained consciousness, she saw her past self.

And the Goose Pavilion, which no one can see.

Yan Ting said to the past Yan Ting, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Yanxi was somewhat dazed.

She remembered Xiao Yanting's words, "I will protect you..."

It turns out she was telling the truth.

Yan Ting really came into this world to protect her.
