"This... honey, I didn’t do it on purpose. I was planning to tell you this afternoon, but then that incident happened, and I got so excited I forgot to ntion it. It’s my fault, I should reflect on this."
Ye Xuan looked embarrassed, scratched his head, and said apologetically.
Hearing this, Lin Tong felt slightly relieved, and the gloom between her brows dissipated a lot.
Regarding the matter itself, she cared more about Ye Xuan’s attitude, worried that he didn’t care about her or didn’t take her seriously, hence his previous behavior, and also as a way to test Ye Xuan.
But now, seeing Ye Xuan still valued her as much as before—caring and considerate of her! This matter wasn’t a mistake of his subjective will, just caused by objective reasons, which could be understood and forgiven!
So at this mont, she finally let go of the stone in her heart and felt at ease.
Though she could understand, forgiving him so easily was too easy of a way out!
He must learn a profound lesson to prevent him from making the sa mistake again without rembering.
"Hmph, you forgot such an important thing; I think to you, I don’t matter at all! Have you already forgotten about ?"
Lin Tong huffed, displaying displeasure on her face.
"No, no, honey, you’re misunderstanding ! In my heart, I’ve always put you first, how could I forget you? This ti, I really just forgot. If I’m lying, I’m not human..."
Ye Xuan put on a serious face, shalessly pleaded, "Honey, seeing how sincerely I’m admitting my mistake, could you forgive just this once? I promise, I’ll never make this kind of mistake again."
"You make mistakes and always want to forgive you, why should I?"
Lin Tong’s face turned serious and she said angrily, "I won’t forgive!"
"Uh... honey, what would it take for you to forgive ?"
"You first handle the Natasha situation!"
"Okay, honey, I’ll do my best to handle this matter."
"Not just do your best! You must handle it, and in the fastest way possible, solve it in the shortest ti! Otherwise, don’t think about forgiving you."
Lin Tong asserted without leave for discussion.
Pausing, she continued, "And another question, answer truthfully, who exactly is this Natasha?"
"This... honey, I can’t tell you yet! It’s not that I don’t want to, but her identity is very sensitive, and it’s inconvenient to disclose. I can only say she’s a very dangerous woman," said Ye Xuan.
Natasha’s identity was like his, surviving in darkness, and revealing it would absolutely be terrifying.
By not saying it, he was also thinking about Lin Tong’s well-being.
"A dangerous woman? You know she’s dangerous, and you still bring her ho, are you intentionally against us? You claim to consider us, is this what you call considering us?" Lin Tong said angrily.
"Honey, don’t worry, although she’s dangerous, it’s only to those who pose a threat! By nature, she’s not violent; if you didn’t provoke her, there wouldn’t be any danger. Besides, I am here, she wouldn’t dare harm you because she can’t bear my wrath." Ye Xuan seriously said.
"Easy for you to say, what if we provoke her? Or she loses control and attacks us, who will take responsibility if that happens? Having her in our ho is like harboring a ti bomb, if it explodes, our safety is at risk! How can you not think things through?" Lin Tong’s tone grew intense as she spoke.
From the incident at the hospital before, she saw Natasha as soone not bound by rules, acting recklessly just based on personal preference; once interacted with, a single misstep might trigger unforeseen consequences!
Ye Xuan was not worried about Natasha; at their level of strength, their mindsets were strong, at least Natasha wouldn’t be controlled by her emotions to harm ordinary people like Lin Tong.
However, Ye Xuan could understand Lin Tong’s perspective too; they saw the issue from different angles, naturally causing discrepancy!
What seed like a non-issue to him, appeared serious in their eyes.
Hence, he had to reconsider arrangents regarding Natasha, also for the sake of his won to prevent clashes.
"Alright, honey, give so ti, I will handle this matter and have her leave, okay?" Ye Xuan spoke softer.
"It seems you still have an apologetic attitude!"
Lin Tong shot Ye Xuan a sidelong glance, her expression slightly softened, and continued, "I don’t care how you interact with each other, but I am firmly against her staying here! That’s my bottom line. I can give you ti, find a way to have her move out. However, as long as she’s still here, I’ll stay at Yumo’s place! Once she leaves, I’ll co back!"
This matter isn’t a joke to , you’d better put in effort. If you can’t handle this satisfactorily, then don’t expect to see again!"
Pausing, she added very seriously.
"Alright, alright, honey, I’ll listen to you and do everything you demand! Is that okay?"
"Don’t be so angry, here, let your husband give you a kiss!"
Ye Xuan moved closer, trying to hold her and kiss her cheek.
"Get away from ! Until things are resolved, don’t you dare touch . Otherwise, I’ll cut you with a knife!"
Lin Tong vehently pushed Ye Xuan away, suddenly standing up from the sofa, glaring at him threateningly.
Ring ring!
Just as Ye Xuan was about to say sothing, a phone rang in the room, it was Lin Tong’s cellphone.
"You stay put!"
Warning him, Lin Tong picked up her phone, seeing an unfamiliar incoming number, originating from the Hong Kong-Macau area.
Frowning slightly, she couldn’t recall knowing anyone from Hong Kong-Macau, could it be dialed by mistake? Or a scam call?
After hesitating for a bit, Lin Tong answered the call, intending to discern who it was!
"Hello, who is this?"
"Hello, is this Miss Lin Tong?"
The person on the other end spoke fluent, thickly accented Cantonese-accented Mandarin, sounded like a middle-aged man.
"Yes, I am Lin Tong! Who are you? What do you want with ?"
Lin Tong subtly eyebrows furrowed, asked.
"Hello, Miss Lin! I’m the manager of xx Loan Company in Haogang, calling to discuss sothing with you." The man on the phone said.
Haogang? Loan company?
Lin Tong grew more puzzled, asking, "What do you need to discuss with ?"
The man chuckled, saying, "It’s like this, Miss Lin, your brother, Lin Zifeng, Mr. Lin has taken out a total loan of thirty million from our company within a week! Now with principal and interest, it has beco thirty-five million. I’m calling to inform you, you should quickly help your brother to repay the company’s loan amount, to secure Mr. Lin’s freedom. Otherwise, we’ll have to keep holding him."
