Ouchen... Ouchen... Her fingers clenched tight, a violent, twisting pain suffocating her breath in her chest! That very night, the night she lost control and hurt him—did something happen to Ouchen...? She was the curse upon the Young Master's fate... Watching Yin Xia Mo’s face frozen in shocked vacancy, Butler Shen was filled with a helpless sense of sorrow.
At first, he thought this girl was the Young Master’s sunlight; because of her, the Young Master gradually began to smile, to look forward to things, to become distracted, and to spend late nights intently crafting various objects for her with his own hands.
Yet that night, she was so cruel and cold! Outside the courtyard gate, though he couldn't hear what she said to the Young Master, he saw everything through the open door! In the pouring rain, the Young Master was kneeling beneath a tree, a dark silhouette; several times he could barely stop himself from rushing over to help the Young Master up, but surely the noble and proud Young Master could not tolerate such a humiliating sight... When the Young Master finally emerged slowly from the courtyard, it was four hours later.
The rain had soaked the Young Master entirely, his dark hair plastered to his pale face, dripping water drop by drop. The Young Master walked very slowly, yet his spine was held perfectly straight.
Refusing his assistance, the Young Master slowly turned back in the rain to gaze once more at the courtyard; the despair in his eyes was something he could never forget.
The Young Master ordered the chauffeur out of the car, taking the driver’s seat alone. The door slammed shut, and to his and the driver’s sheer panic, the Young Master sped away into the rainy night at a terrifying velocity! He had a bad feeling then... And then... came the disaster... When he received the call from the police station and rushed over, the Young Master was already being rushed into the emergency room, covered in blood; the police said it was a car accident.
The surgery lasted nearly an entire day. The Master also rushed back specially from France, yet the Young Master remained unconscious. The doctor said that aside from external injuries and damage to internal organs, there was a hematoma pressing on his brain nerves, making the situation extremely perilous.
A car accident... Another car accident... Was the Young Master's accident truly an accident, or... He dared not think further. How could his noble Young Master... for the sake of a single girl...? But the harm that girl had inflicted upon the Young Master was unforgivable! So when the Oushi Group submitted the request for approval regarding whether to pursue the debt owed by Yin Xia Mo’s adoptive father, Butler Shen told the Master that the girl should pay the price for what she had done to the Young Master.
“It is only that I did not foresee that the people hired to collect the assets would be so brutal, even attempting to molest you and your brother, and causing you to injure someone, resulting in imprisonment.”
Butler Shen said solemnly, bowing deeply to Yin Xia Mo and Yin Cheng at the same time, “Apologies may be too late, but I still wish to express my regret to both of you.”
Yin Xia Mo looked at him, astonishment, confusion, and pain mixing in her eyes.
“Everything... was your doing?” “Yes.”
“Including Xiao Cheng collapsing outside the Oushi villa, being soaked by the rain all night, yet no one checked on him or even called an ambulance,” her breathing grew ragged as she stared fixedly at Butler Shen, “Was that—also you?” “Sister, it wasn't Butler Shen at the time...” Lying on the hospital bed, Yin Cheng sat up with difficulty, explaining to his sister.
After his sister was arrested by the police for striking that dark-skinned youth, he was terrified and frantic, fearing his sister would suffer in that terrible place, fearing what would happen if she were actually sentenced.
In his panic, he could only think of one person who could save his sister, and so he came to the main gate of the Oushi villa.
