Xia Ling couldn't open her eyes, her insides were burning with pain.
She could still hear the whistles of those men. A sense of grievance and bitterness suddenly filled her heart, causing her delicate little nose to turn red.
At this moment, Xia Ling felt aggrieved.
At this moment, a large hand reached over and cupped her pretty little face. "Let me take a look at your eyes."
Xia Ling's lashes were wet with water droplets, just like the wings of a butterfly. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
Her heart leapt. Was it … Xuan Ying?
"Angel, it's alright. Relax, I'll wipe your eyes with a towel."
It was Young Master Hua!
It wasn't Xuan Ying!
Xia Ling's hopes were shattered. It wasn't him, it wasn't him!
Xuan Ying watched the scene from afar. Young Master Hua was holding Xia Ling's pretty face, gently wiping away the water droplets from her eyes and face. At this moment, the sun was setting and the handsome young man and beautiful lady attracted two whistles.
Xuan Ying froze.
"Silver Mask King, what's wrong?" Lan Lan walked over, looking at Xuan Ying curiously.
Xuan Ying had already stepped into the sea and his trousers were half wet. He had wanted to rush over to Xia Ling, but Young Master Hua beat him to it.
Xuan Ying's heart ached. When she needed help and support the most, he wasn't by her side.
Be it three years ago or three years later, he had never done anything for her …
"Silver Mask King, let's play in the water too," Lan Lan suggested.
…
Xia Ling could open her eyes again. After a while, the pain in her eyes disappeared and her vision became clear again.
She looked at Young Master Hua, thanking him sincerely. "Young Master Hua, thank you."
"You're welcome, Angel. Sit on the swimming ring, I'll push you to play." Young Master Hua smiled.
Xia Ling thought for a moment, then smiled. "I'm not going to sit on it, I'm afraid I'll fall down again."
She rejected him politely.
Young Master Hua knew that Xia Ling was a very good girl. She knew that she didn't have any romantic feelings for him, so she wouldn't accept his flirtatious actions. She wouldn't give him any hope at all. That way, there wouldn't be any harm.
Young Master Hua had dated many girls, but Xia Ling was the first one who had such pride and self-respect.
Such a girl deserved the best care and love from a man.
At this moment, he heard a voice. Young Master Hua glanced over, "Uncle Ying, you're here to play too?"
Xia Ling looked up and saw Xuan Ying with Lan Lan by his side.
Both of them had changed their clothes. Xuan Ying's torso was bare and he was wearing a pair of black swimming trunks. His skin had turned bronze in the past three years and he had hair on his chest. He wasn't a dignified man like Lu Yeming. On the contrary, he was tall and masculine.
Lan Lan had changed into a small floral bikini. She had a voluptuous figure and looked very attractive in a bikini. Although her face was not considered pretty, she was still a lady from a wealthy family with fair skin.
His eyes landed on Xia Ling's delicate face and he asked in a low voice, "Are your eyes alright?" Xia Ling nodded. "Are they alright now?" Xia Ling nodded.
It would have been better if he hadn't asked, Xia Ling would have given up on him. But now that he had suddenly asked, the bitterness and aggrievement she had felt just now overwhelmed her and her eyes reddened. "I'm going to play in front."
Xia Ling turned around and left. The water by the beach was very shallow. She took her swimming ring and walked to the front, going behind a reef.
When they arrived at this place where no one could see them, Xia Ling's beautiful eyes were quickly covered with a layer of sparkling and translucent mist.
She didn't want to cry.
She had been alone for the past three years. Now that her life was getting better, there was no need for her to cry.
Xia Ling quickly raised her eyes and looked at the sunset on the horizon. The beautiful sun was setting in the west, sprinkling a layer of gorgeous and warm splendor on the azure blue sea.
Xia Ling's heart slowly calmed down.
At this moment, Lan Lan walked over. "Hello, Angel. I didn't expect you to be the Godmother of Fashion, Angel. I queued up for the new season items that you released some time ago but I couldn't get them. I didn't expect Angel to not only design well, you're also so beautiful. This is the first time I've seen you."
Lan Lan looked at Xia Ling with admiration and was very friendly.
Xia Ling curved her lips lightly. "Hello, Miss Lan Lan."
…
The two women were chatting in front while Xuan Ying and Young Master Hua stood together. Xuan Ying's gaze lingered behind the reef. He couldn't see the beautiful figure, but he could occasionally hear her and Lan Lan chatting. Their voices were soft and pleasant to the ears.
Just now, he had seen her eyes turn red.
The moment she turned around, he had accurately captured the redness in her eyes. She seemed to be about to cry.
Xuan Ying's heart ached. He lifted his hand and forcefully dug into his heart.
"Uncle Ying, is Miss Lan Lan your blind date? Are you going on a blind date?" Young Master Hua asked curiously.
Xuan Ying pursed his thin lips. "Mm."
Young Master Hua lowered his voice. "Uncle Ying, do you like Miss Lan Lan?"
Xuan Ying didn't reply.
Young Master Hua continued, "Uncle Ying, Miss Lan Lan looks like a good person, but … I think Uncle Ying should find someone with a beautiful face and a good figure."
A beautiful face and a good figure …
Xia Ling's beautiful face appeared in Xuan Ying's mind. She wasn't just beautiful, her figure could be described with just a few words. She was the cream of the crop among all the women in the world.
She was a stunner and all men liked her. He liked her too.
His mother, Concubine Yu, had introduced Lan Lan to him. It had been three years. Coincidentally, Lan Lan was here and he had just met her on the beach. This was his first time meeting her.
In his mother's words, Xuan Ying, you're already a cripple. Are you still thinking about Lingling? Look at what you've done to Lingling in the past. I feel ashamed for you. Don't go and harm Lingling. I've told Lan Lan about your situation. Lan Lan was sick when she was young and her uterus had problems. She couldn't have children. Lan Lan is willing to accept you, so don't be picky. Marry Lan Lan and live together. At least she'll have a companion when you're old.
Xuan Ying's thin lips curved into a bitter smile. He didn't have the right to be picky anymore.
"Uncle Ying, Uncle Ying …" Young Master Hua nudged Xuan Ying. "Are you really going to marry Lan Lan?"
Xuan Ying looked at Young Master Hua and shook his head. "No."
"Why? I saw you just now … "
Xuan Ying's gaze landed on the rock again. Xia Ling had come out and was playing in the water. From his angle, he could see Xia Ling's alluring side profile. Tiny droplets of water rolled down her fair skin, making his mouth go dry just by looking at it.
Xuan Ying laughed. "Of course. Which man doesn't want something better?"
He had already told Lan Lan that he wasn't interested in her and he wouldn't marry her.
