The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 462: Chapter 462 How Can I Love This Much_1

Before he left, Hai Xiaotang was a freshly blossomed flower, vibrant and dripping with life.

But now, she seemed to him as wilted.

He didn’t need to ask to know how much painful ordeal she had gone through during his absence.

Dongfang Yu couldn’t even imagine how she survived those days…

Thinking of this, Dongfang Yu’s heartache for her only deepened.

Gently touching her face, he apologised, “My dear, I’m sorry, you had to suffer in my absence.”

Hai Xiaotang shook her head with a smile, “I didn’t suffer. As long as you returned, nothing else mattered!”

Dongfang Yu’s eyes trembled, he was so deeply moved that he was at a loss for words.

“Xiaotang, I will never leave you again, never again!” He could only make a solemn promise, “I will always be by your side, never again to cause you sadness or pain.”

Hai Xiaotang’s eyes were immediately moistened by tears.

“You said it, don’t forget!”

Dongfang Yu’s eyes held sadness, he smiled and nodded, “I won’t forget. As long as I am alive, I will be by your side, never leaving you.”

Hai Xiaotang gripped his hand tightly, promising in return, “Same here. As long as I am alive, I will never leave you alone!”

“Hai Xiaotang, you really are…” Dongfang Yu suddenly took a deep breath, moved beyond words, “Why do I love you the way I do!”

Holding her tight, Dongfang Yu confessed, “What would I do, I cannot leave you now! If you dare leave me, I will surely die!”

“Don’t you dare say that word!” Hai Xiaotang refuted excitedly, “Dongfang Yu, I don’t want to hear that word now!”

She was referring to the word ‘death’.

Dongfang Yu was taken aback, and immediately softened his gaze, nodding, “Okay, I won’t say it.”

Only then did Hai Xiaotang smile satisfactorily. Then she wrapped her arms around him asking, “Did you just return today?”

Dongfang Yu gently stroked her body and nodded, “Yes.”

“So Dongfang Hen’s plan did not succeed, the company is still yours?” Hai Xiaotang asked exuberantly.

Dongfang Yu smiled and nodded again, “Yes, it is still mine.”

“That’s so great!” Hai Xiaotang happily kissed his face, “Dongfang Yu, you came back just in time! But where had you been? During this time, were you okay, did you suffer a lot?”

Dongfang Yu didn’t answer, only gently watched her.

Hai Xiaotang was bewildered by his gaze, “I’m asking you.”

Gently caressing her cheek, Dongfang Yu sighed, “Hai Xiaotang, it’s so good to see you again.”

Hai Xiaotang was puzzled, not understanding what he meant by that.

A hint of melancholy passed Dongfang Yu’s eyes.

“I thought, I’d never see you again, I’d lost you forever…”

Hai Xiaotang didn’t understand the deeper meaning of his words, taking it to mean that he almost died, hence his words.

Instantly, she anxiously asked, “Did you almost die? Are you hurt somewhere, let me take a look!”

As she talked, she was about to examine his body.

Dongfang Yu caught her hand and smiled, “I’m fine now, it’s all in the past.”

“Which part of you was hurt?” Hai Xiaotang persisted.

Reluctantly, Dongfang Yu unbuttoned his shirt with one hand. With that, Hai Xiaotang saw a scar on his chest!

It was a scar left by a bullet…

The wound was dangerously close to his heart, had the bullet deviated just a bit, it would have pierced his heart!
