Chapter 177: It Was I Who Killed Him

ands, his face pressed against his mommy's chest, and soon fell asleep.An Xiaotu wanted to tell Tang Yucheng about what Xiao Annian had said, but she was afraid of waking him up. She could only hold i...Chapter 177: It Was I Who Killed Him.

An Xiaotu saw that Tang Yucheng's face turned pale after the phone call, his complexion drained of all color. Her heart sank with him.

After a long silence, she asked cautiously, "Yu Cheng, what happened"

"The police from Fukuoka called, Shuxiu..." Tang Yucheng endured the heart-wrenching pain in his chest. "Little Rabbit, stay here, I'll be right back."

Before An Xiaotu could say anything, he had already vanished into the room.

Tang Xiu had been missing for so many days, it wasn't a call from the hospital, but Fukuoka police... An Xiaotu felt a chill run up her spine and couldn't help shivering. The scene of the yacht explosion that day kept flashing in her mind. She held back, trying not to let herself overthink.

No…

Before, Yu Cheng and Xiao Shu still said that Tang Xiuxiu would be fine.

In the vast presidential suite, the silence was almost frightening. Even with the heating on, An Xiaotu still felt a chill run through her entire body.

Halfway through, she tried calling Tang Yucheng, but he didn't answer.

Curled up on the sofa, watching the European-style clock on the wall tick by every second until past midnight, he had been waiting for over four hours since Tang Yucheng left. He still hadn't returned, nor had he made any phone calls.

An Xiaotu's heart sank to the bottom as she waited for news. She wanted to rush out and find him, but she knew she wasn't familiar with Japan and didn't speak Japanese. If she got lost, it would only cause him more trouble.

I don't know how long it took.

A feeling of movement woke An Xiaotu abruptly. She saw Tang Yucheng looking haggard and windswept, with a few unmelted snowflakes still on his shoulders. His handsome face was expressionless, but the profound sadness in his eyes could not be concealed.

"YuCheng..." she cried out with heartache.

Tang Yucheng's voice was hoarse, his tone carrying a barely perceptible tremor, "I don't believe that person is Si Xiu. I'm waiting for the DNA test results."

He was saying that the Fukuoka police had contacted him because the person's clothing matched the description, but they couldn't make out their original appearance, so they were waiting for the DNA test results

An Xiaotu's thoughts were in disarray, and her heart was racing along with them.

Although she was initially angry with Tang Si for stealing her, she couldn't accept the outcome.

"I had breakfast brought over. You eat breakfast and then take a nap, I'll be out in a while."

An Xiaotu only then discovered that she had been sitting on the couch all night. She clutched at his clothes, her voice firm as she said, "I'm going out with you."

"No." Tang Yucheng refused without hesitation.

"I'm going with you." She said stubbornly, "We are husband and wife. No matter what happens, I want to stand by your side, not let you bear it alone."

But he didn't back down because of her words, “It’s enough that you have this heart. Just stay well at the hotel. Ling Frost is outside, if anything happens, call her.”

An Xiaotu finally gave in, and didn't want to bother him at this time, so she could only stay silent.

Tang Yucheng watched her take a bath and wash up, stared at her after she finished breakfast, then called in Ling Shuang to give her some instructions before hurriedly leaving again.

"Ling Shuang, you must know where Yu Cheng went. Please take me there, can you" An Xiao Tu pleaded.

"I'm sorry, Second Miss. I only take orders from the Second Master." Ling Shuang said emotionlessly, her refusal cold as ice.

"Your master usually listens to me at home, I order you to take me there." An Xiaotu said arrogantly. If the DNA test results came out and confirmed it was Tang Si Xiu, then he would be dealt a huge blow, he would be in so much pain.

She wanted to get to his side and be with him.

Ling Shuang stood straight behind the door, facing An Xiaotu silently.

Then tell me, where is he I'll go find him myself.

"Second Master won't allow you to leave this room half a step, please don't make things difficult for me, Second Madam."

“...”

An Xiaotu was both angry and anxious. Knowing that with Ling Shuang's ability, it would be impossible for her to break in by force, she could only pace back and forth in the room.

At noon, the hotel waiter delivered lunch to the room. Although Xiao Tu was hungry, she didn't have much appetite.

Under the gaze of Ling Frost's piercing cold, she managed to eat a few bites, only to vomit them all up.

Soon, Ling Shuang had the attendant bring over a lighter lunch. "Second Young Mistress, please eat some, don't worry Second Master," she said.

"Ling霜, I want to see him."

An Xiaotu's eyes were inexplicably moist. Thinking that the man was enduring torment, perhaps even pain, in a place she couldn't see, her heart ached terribly. She desperately wished to fly to his side and share some of his burden.

"The Second Master will be back tonight." Ling Shuang said coldly.

"I want to see him now, LingShuang, take me there."

"Second Young Madam, please have your lunch first."

Her answer was ambiguous. An Xiaotu's dim eyes flashed a glimmer, and she hurriedly walked to the table, picking up her chopsticks and starting to eat.

To get to Tang Yucheng's side, she forced herself to eat her lunch despite feeling nauseous. As a result, she threw it all up.

Ling Shuang watched from the side, her face slightly grave. She pursed her lips and pondered for a long while before saying, "Second Mistress, I'll have some porridge sent over."

"No, I can't eat." An Xiaotu rinsed her mouth, trying to get rid of the strange taste. Her eyes were red as she climbed onto the bed.

"Second Madam, for the sake of...for the Second Master, even if you can't stomach it, please eat a little; at this time, please don't burden the Second Master any more." Ling Shuang finished speaking and called to have some things sent up.

Little An slept soundly after drinking half a bowl of porridge, and burrowed back into her blankets.

Ling Shuang waited until she fell asleep before turning to leave the room.

……

She felt her body being hugged tightly, so much that she struggled to breathe. Familiar scent filled her nostrils, and she blinked open her eyes in a daze.

"Yu Cheng" she called out softly, motionless.

Tang Yucheng buried his face in her neck and murmured, "Mom and Dad, and the third brother will arrive in Fukuoka in two hours."

'With a thud, An Xiaotu stiffened all over at his words, her mind going blank.'

Is the DNA out

Are you sure that person is Tang Xiu

Tang Yucheng didn't speak again, he just held her tightly. He was trembling all over from grief so intense that he couldn't control it, even his breathing came out in choked sobs.

A warm liquid flowed down her neck, burning her skin. An Xiaotu's heart clenched painfully, she hugged him back, tears welling up in her eyes, but no comforting words could come out.

After a long time, Tang Yucheng said in a trembling voice, "Little Rabbit, it was I who killed Si Xiu."

"No." Little Bunny shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes.

"If I hadn't followed Xiu to Japan, he wouldn't be in this situation." His voice was heavy with regret.

But if he could do it all over again, what would he choose

If he doesn't come, with Isis's abilities, it would be easy for her to hide in a world this big.

So just the thought of her being with Xiu made his heart feel hollowed out. Just imagining it, he was in pain that made him struggle to breathe.

But he came after her, and it cost Sxiu..., kindergarten was over.The little one, still waiting for their parents to finish work and pick them up, stayed in the teacher's office with their eyes constantly fixed on the phone on the desk.After...
