Chapter 166
Behind him was a row of bodyguards in black suits who outnumbered Sheng Yize’s bodyguards severalfold .

All the bodyguards eyed one another in embarrassment .
Qi Yanxi kicked the door open and was struck dumb by what he saw .
Sheng Yize was holding An Xiaxia’s hand, while An Xiaxia seemed to be dreaming, since she kept moaning in a tiny voice .
He could faintly make out her words: “Sheng Yize, don’t go . Don’t leave me behind…”
Qi Yanxi stood frozen on the spot and was greatly hurt .
Hearing the noise, Sheng Yize looked back and gave him an icy stare . “What?”
Qi Yanxi clenched his fists . “Did she wake up?”
“Yes, but she’s sleeping now . I don’t mind a fight, but let’s not wake her . ” Sheng Yize tucked An Xiaxia’s hand into the duvet and rose to his feet .

Qi Yanxi chuckled in a self-mocking tone . “What’s the point?”
It was indeed exactly like two years ago . All the girls he liked would eventually fall for Sheng Yize .
He looked at An Xiaxia lying there and raised one dark eyebrow . A look that was hard to describe flickered in his eyes .
Shortly afterward, he turned around and left .
If she couldn’t like him, then let her hate him .
The Qi family .
Father Qi sat at the head on one end of the long dining table and looked at the empty seat . His face twitched with anger .

Qi Yanxi was brought back by the people whom Father Qi had sent out .
“You’re a big man now, are you? How dare you ignore my order and make a scene out there with those bodyguards! You worthless piece of shit!” A golf club in hand, he beat Qi Yanxi with it .
Qi Yanxi kept dodging it . However, his old man was fit and quick, so a hit or two inevitably landed on his body . He drew in a painful breath .
Mu Li stood in a corner and felt her heart almost stop beating .
“Oh my, Master, Yanxi is still a kid and kids are naughty like that . Don’t get angry and don’t hit him anymore…” Lu He, Qi Yanxi’s stepmother, went up to Father Qi, acting as if she was going to stop him . However, her words said otherwise . “I heard he only hit Young Master Sheng because of a girl…”
Qi Yanxi was struck by those words and glared at Lu He .
Damn . He knew it! The woman had investigated him privately!
Father Qi was all the more infuriated at those words and began to hit Qi Yanxi mercilessly . “Wasting your life on useless pleasures and chasing after woman! What have I done to deserve a son like you?!”

“It’s better than that boy-chasing older brother of mine . Why aren’t you hitting him?” Qi Yanxi sneered .
Father Qi almost gnashed his own teeth into dust and swung the club down again .
Qi Yanxi stood ramrod straight and wouldn’t dodge .
Crack —
The club was broken in half and Qi Yanxi knelt down on the floor with a grunt .
All hell broke loose . While the butler hurried to call their family doctor, Lu He went to fetch the blood pressure pills for Father Qi; a gloating smile flashed across her face .
Mu Li went over to help Qi Yanxi up and heard the teenager’s lonely voice . “Why don’t you just beat me to death? You all find me annoying, but I find you all f**king disgusting!”
At that moment, Mu Li had never felt so sad in her life .
She felt so sorry for him, but there was nothing she could do .
When An Xiaxia woke up again, it was dark outside .
Her IV was finished and Sheng Yize was sitting beside her reading a newspaper . His dark pupils went to her when he sensed that she had woken up . He looked right into her clear and innocent eyes .
Their eyes met and an awkwardness filled the air .
After much hesitation, An Xiaxia finally said gingerly, “Um… I want to go home…”
At this, Sheng Yize went up to her right away and picked her up with both arms .
An Xiaxia was dumbfounded . Holy crap! Was Sheng Yize carrying her now?
And in a princess carry?!
