Chapter 1765: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (8)
Xiao Ying did not know what Long Ming had said to Mrs Li. When she returned to the banquet hall, Long Ming was already gone.
On the way back to the Duke’s palace, the Duchess received a call from her husband.
After the call, the Duchess’ expression changed.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
“Your father called and said that Yiyi was hospitalized.”
“Then, let’s go and take a look.”
Xiao Ying and the Duke’s wife rushed to the hospital.
Liu Yiyi had just come out of the operating room and her face looked pale.
“Doctor, what happened to my daughter?” The Duke’s wife asked.
The doctor shook his head. “We haven’t found anything yet.”
Liu Yiyi slowly opened her eyes and called out weakly, “Mom.”
Although the Duke’s wife did not like Liu Yiyi’s personality, she was still her daughter. Her heart ached when she saw her daughter’s pale face.
“Yiyi, how are you feeling? Where are you feeling unwell?”
Liu Yiyi’s lips quivered and she looked at Xiao Ying. Suddenly, she vomited a mouthful of blood.
Her face turned even paler. She grabbed the Duchess’ hand as if she had seen a ghost. “Mom, she can’t be here. Ask her to leave. Ask her to leave…”
The Duke’s wife frowned and wanted to say something, but Liu Yiyi spat out another mouthful of blood.
“Doctor, quickly check her.”
Liu Yiyi’s body twitched and she looked terrified. “Ask her to leave. She can’t be here. Ah… It’s so uncomfortable!”
The Duke, who was standing by the side, saw that something was wrong with Liu Yiyi. He frowned and walked to Xiao Ying’s side. “Ying’er, why don’t you leave first?”
When the Duke’s wife heard that the Duke wanted Xiao Ying to leave, her expression fell. “What does Yiyi’s condition have to do with Ying’er? You have to be rational.”
Xiao Ying saw that Liu Yiyi was vomiting blood and trembling, so she stood up and said, “Dad, Mom, I’ll leave first. Take good care of Yiyi.”
Liu Yiyi’s condition only improved after Xiao Ying left.
The doctor could not find anything wrong with Liu Yiyi’s body. She had not been poisoned, nor were there any other abnormalities.
Two days later, the doctor said that she could be discharged. In the end, Liu Yiyi vomited blood again when she saw Xiao Ying at the Duke’s palace.
Liu Yiyi only felt better after Xiao Ying avoided Liu Yiyi.
The Duke asked his friend about this situation and a friend suggested that she might have been cursed.
The Duke did not believe in the supernatural realm, but with Liu Yiyi’s current situation, he could only go against his own rationality.
He found a monk from a temple.
After the accomplished monk read Liu Yiyi’s birth characters, he said that someone in the Duke’s palace was incompatible with her and that she had to stay away from that person to survive.
That night.
The Duke looked at the Duke’s wife, who had been suffering from more sever insomnia recently, and sighed. “Dear, the monk said that someone in the family is incompatible with Yiyi. He even said that the person’s birth date and time matches Ying’er’s.”
The Duke’s wife was about to take sleeping pills when she heard the Duke’s words. She glared at him. “What do you mean? Do you mean that Ying’er is jinxing Yiyi?”
“Look, when these two children are together, the house is always in chaos. Yiyi is vomiting blood at the sight of Ying’er now. If this continues, she really won’t be able to live for long.”
The Duke also liked Xiao Ying a lot, but people were selfish and he was more biased toward his biological daughter.
Since it concerned his daughter’s life, he had to make some decisions.
The Duke’s wife did not agree with her husband’s words. “I don’t believe in those things. When my famous doctor friend from overseas comes back in a few days, I’ll ask him to take a look at Yiyi again.”
The Duke frowned and said, “My suggestion is to let Ying’er move out for the time being and let her come back when the cause of Yiyi’s illness is found.”
The Duke’s wife had caught a cold recently and was coughing a little. Xiao Ying had cooked some sugared pear water and had brought it up. She was just about to knock on the door of the master bedroom.
The master bedroom door was not closed tightly and a faint yellow light could be seen through the gap. She raised her hand and suddenly heard the conversation between the Duke and the Duke’s wife.
The bowl in her hand almost fell over.
The monk said that she was jinxing Liu Yiyi?
Liu Yiyi had vomited blood for no reason because of her?
Before Xiao Ying could think any further, she heard the Duke asking her to move out temporarily.
Xiao Ying’s heart tightened slightly.
Actually, she could understand the Duke’s feelings. How could a father not be anxious when his daughter was sick?
Xiao Ying looked down and went downstairs.
She handed the bowl to the butler and asked him to bring it to the Duke’s wife.
The next day.
Before dawn, Xiao Ying left with her luggage.
She had left a letter on the bedside table.
Liu Yiyi and Xiao Ying both stayed on the third floor. When she heard sounds coming from outside, she went to Xiao Ying’s room after the latter left.
Seeing the letter Xiao Ying left behind, she took it to her room.
After reading it, she burned the letter.
During breakfast, the Duke’s wife did not see Xiao Ying coming down and asked the butler to call her.
The butler told the Duke’s wife, “Elder Miss left very early this morning.”
The Duke’s wife was surprised. “What?”
The Duke’s wife hurriedly went upstairs. Pushing open Xiao Ying’s bedroom door, the Duke’s wife’s eyes immediately turned red when she saw that the clothes she had bought for Xiao Ying were all there. She had only taken away a few of her own things.
Ying’er had left?
She had not believed or agreed to whatever the Duke had told her last night.
But Ying’er had left.
The Duke walked in and looked at the Duke’s wife, whose eyes were red, with a heavy expression.
Had he been too concerned about Yiyi recently that made Ying’er suffer?
“Dear, call Ying’er!”
The Duke’s wife took the phone from the Duke and called Xiao Ying.
But it was turned off.
When the Duke and his wife arrived at the dining room downstairs, Liu Yiyi was extremely unhappy when she saw their sad faces.
Xiao Ying had simply left.
Was this necessary?
“Dad, Mom, you doted on her to the core, but she left without a word. This kind of daughter doesn’t care about you at all. Why are you sad?”
The moment she finished speaking, she saw the Duke’s wife glaring at her with red eyes. “She’s your sister!”
Liu Yiyi wanted to say that she did not have such a sister, but after seeing the Duke’s wife’s expression, she shut her mouth.
After breakfast, the Duke’s wife wanted to find Xiao Ying, but Liu Yiyi fainted again.
When the Duke saw this, he sighed. “Let Yiyi’s condition get better before you find Ying’er!” The Duke was more or less unhappy with Xiao Ying leaving without a word.
This child clearly knew that Madam doted on her. Why had she left without saying anything?
Xiao Ying found a small district and rented an apartment there.
She locked herself in the apartment for the entire day before turning on her phone.
The moment she turned on her phone, Long Mei called her.
“Sister-in-law, I just went to the Duke’s palace to look for you. They said that you moved out. Where did you go?”
“Mei’er, come have a drink with me!”
