Chapter 125: The Familiar Feeling of Powerlessness

After Wei Zexuan went back, he wanted to go to Xia Yuxi's house to see her quietly. But she was locked, so he could only stop.

In fact, Xia Yuxi had never been asleep in her room. When she heard Wei Zexuan coming back, she quickly locked the door. It was only a long time before she heard the doorknob turning slightly, and then there was no sound.

It was obvious that someone wanted to see her, but finally gave up.

Although Xia Yuxi could not see who was outside the door, she intuitively told her that it must be Wei Zexuan. She was lying on the bed, her heart seemed to be clogged, and her tears came out again.

The next day, Xia Yuxi deliberately got up very late. She does not want to see Wei Zexuan now, afraid she would want to ask him.

But when she went downstairs, she saw the familiar figure sitting at the dining table.

"Auntie is a big lazy worm and wake up late." She wanted to turn around and go back to her room, but she was seen by the sharp little eyes. The child was sitting on a high stool, shaking his legs while eating, smiling and pointing at her.

Wei Zexuan looked at NianNian's fingers and saw Xia Yuxi standing at the corner of the stairs. Her eyes were blue and purple. At first glance, she didn't sleep well.

"Wake up? Come over and eat." Wei Zexuan's eyebrows flicked and he greeted casually.

Now that she had been seen, is not good for Xia Yuri to hide again. She took a deep breath and walked down, sitting next to NianNian.

"Little villain, dare to say that auntie is a big lazy worm." In order to cover up her nervousness, she deliberately teased and grabbed the sandwich in his hand. "Quick, auntie will eat it."

NianNian smiled, kissed Xia Yuxi obediently, and after getting his sandwich back again, he began to eat with joy.

"Have you not slept well last night?" Wei Zexuan handed her a glass of milk and asked with concern.

Xia Yuxi took it, but didn't want to drink at all, she put it on the table and found a reason to perfunctoryly, "Well, I have been dreaming."

"I'll call the private doctor to check on you?"

"No, no.. I'm fine." Xia Yuxi quickly waved her hand. She had her own concerns and it was useless to call the doctor.

Wei Zexuan nodded recklessly and asked again, "Sister Joe said that your knee was swollen yesterday, how is it now?"

"It's okay, just a slightly swollen."

"Show me." Wei Zexuan said as he walked around the table and squatted directly beside Xia Yuxi, rolling up her pajamas.

Xia Yuxi was taken aback and quickly tried to retract her leg.

"Don't move!" Wei Zexuan sneered, scaring her to sit down quickly and not to move again.

Looking at Xia Yuxi's red and swollen knees, the fire in Wei Zexuan's heart could not be suppressed, and the two slaps for Liu Zhiyan were easy last night.

"It's all swollen like this, and it's okay. After a while, I called the doctor, you can sit or lie down well today, no more movements."

Seeing Wei Zexuan's complexion, Xia Yuxi did not dare to say anything, and nodded honestly.

She thought that after he left, she could do what she wanted. She don't want Wei Zexuan to instruct Sister Joe because as long as Xia Yuxi touches the ground, Sister Joe will be nervous.

Honestly no way, she had to lie down on the sofa whole day.

Liu Zhiyan's words that day still frightened the child, and his rest habits. Xia Yuxi felt distressed when watching NianNian struggling to read a book larger than his face.

But she couldn't think of the best solution for both at all. She must think fast. For several days, she put all her mind and body on how to make NianNian happy to learn something.

This caused her to ignored the others. Especially Fang Jinghua, seeing that her daughter's attention is all on the child, she goes out more and more frequently. She, who had recently gone out to gambles had won a lot of monies.

She thought she had to take advantage of her luck and make more money. Although Wei Zexuan is very good to the two of them, his current identity is Xiaoxi's cousin, so she has no idea about herself and Xiaoxi's future.

Even if something happens in the future, at least the two of them will have some monies.

Xia Yuxi lost her memory and didn't know that her mother was addicted to gambling, but Sister Joe knew it.

Although she wanted to stop her, she couldn't stop her at all. After all, Fang Jinghua is an old woman, and she is embarrassed to say anything unpleasant.

Fortunately, the old woman can come back safely before dinner every day, so Sister Joe will not take this matter to heart.

Till this day, Xia Yuxi was still teaching NianNian. Sister Joe cleaned such a big house by herself, and it's a busy day. By dinner time, the two lady found that Fang Jinghua had not returned.

Xia Yuxi quickly took out her mobile phone and called her, and when the call was connected, Fang Jinghua told her that she met an old friend. She will eat outside for dinner.

Xia Yuxi was relieved and waited for her to return while accompanying NianNian. Later, after Wei Zexuan came back, she didn't tell him about it, thinking that Fang Jinghua might be happy with friends, and she would come back later.

But until NianNian fell asleep, Fang Jinghua still did not return.

Although Xia Yuxi was worried, she did not dare to say anything. After all, it was so late, and everyone almost fell asleep. So she went back to the room by herself and waited.

At first, she called Fang Jinghua, it got through, and she kept talking with her for a while. After that, her phone had turned off directly. It was already so late at night, and Xia Yuxi was embarrassed to bother others.

She waited all night.

The next morning, when Xia Yuxi, who had never slept in the night, was sitting in the living room, her face was terrible. Thinking of Liu Zhiyan's previous statement that she always involved Wei Zexuan, swallowed her words several times.

"Xiaoxi, are you uncomfortable, why is your face so bad?" Her strangeness still attracted Wei Zexuan's attention.

Xia Yuxi has been thinking about Fang Jinghua's things, so she never heard what he said.

Wei Zexuan frowned, then stood up, walked to her, reached out to touch her forehead, and to see if she had a fever.

"Ah, brother, what are you doing?" Xia Yuxi didn't recover until Wei Zexuan's hand touched her forehead. Subconsciously, she moved backwards and, because he was too strong, she was about to fall over from her chair.

Just when Xia Yuxi was about to fall to the ground, the fast-eyed Wei Zexuan quickly helped her sit on the chair, which prevented her from falling on the marble floor again.

Wei Zexuan thought about it carefully, she always seemed to fall to the ground, maybe it was time for someone to put a carpet on all the parts of the house.

"Um, scared me, thank you brother." Xia Yuxi patted her chest in shock, whispered.

"What the hell is wrong with you? You don't have a fever, but you have such a bad complexion.

"I... my mother didn't come back last night." She was so worried about her mother, and after repeated inquiries by Wei Zexuan, she said what happened yesterday.

As soon as Xia Yuxi finished, Wei Zexuan basically knew.

Looking at her in a state of anxiety, he patted her on the shoulder lightly, "It's okay, I know where my aunt is. You have a good sleep now after you have eaten, and when you wake up, she will be back."

"Brother, do you really know what happened to my mother?" Xia Yuxi became more and more frightened, she took Wei Zexuan's hand and looked up at him.

Seeing her eyes soaked with tears, Wei Zexuan's heart hurt.

He suppressed the desire to hold her in his arms, and rubbed her hair. "Relax, it will be fine." To make her feel at ease, Wei Zexuan grinned.

Xia Yuxi rarely saw him laughing, let alone grinning. So when she saw his bright smile, she was stunned for a while, and then her heart dropped a little.

After comforting Xia Yuxi, Wei Zexuan put on his coat and went to find Fang Jinghua. At this time they suddenly heard a noise at the gate. After looking at each other, they hurried out.

When they opened the door, they were seeing the security guard at the door arguing with several people who look like gangsters. Fang Jinghua was being pushed by a person like the gang leader.

"Mom!" After seeing Fang Jinghua, Xia Yuxi shouted anxiously, trying to find her through the chaotic crowd.

Wei Zexuan quickly grabbed her, shook her head, and then stood in front of her, shouting coldly: "Who are you?"

The gang leader narrowed his eyes when he saw the two of them, and he laughed. It seems that the old woman did not lied, and her family members did look very rich.

Thinking of getting a lot of monies this time, he was in a good mood. "Stop it! Didn't you see the Lord coming out? What are you guys tearing up!"

"Yes, Brother Black!" Hearing the orders of his boss, these few ground gangsters let go and stood behind him one after another.

The man named Hei Ge gave Fang Jinghua a hand and whispered, "Look at Lao Tzu, this is our cash cow."

After he was instructed, he walked to Wei Zexuan with his steps, "This gentleman, we are Fang Jinghua's creditors. She owes us some money, saying that if we come here, someone will pay for her."

"How much is it?" Wei Zexuan looked at him coldly and asked directly.

"What?" Hei Ge rarely sees such a generous gambler's family, and does not respond for a while.

"I said how much does she owes you in total? I will pay it back for her." Wei Zexuan repeated it patiently. He didn't bother to talk nonsense with them. He let his men deal with them.

But now he is not afraid of these people, but he is worried that they will scare Xia Yuxi. So he thought about giving them money directly, and settle this matter as soon as possible.

Hearing Wei Zexuan's words, Hei Ge's eyes narrowed. Today is really right. This situation is not just about making a fortune, it is simply about making a fortune.

His eyes rolled around and hey, "Not much, not much, just three million."

"You bullshit, how could my mother owed you so much money." Before Wei Zexuan spoke, Xia Yuxi stood up behind him and spoke angrily.

In her view, her mother is an ordinary housewife who lives on her daughter and nephew. She may not have seen three million in her life. How could she owe these gangsters so much money?

"We bullshit? Believe it or not, I'll call your mother over to you, and you personally ask."

Hei Ge said and give his men a look, Fang Jinghua was escorted to Xia Yuxi. "You tell your daughter if you owe us three million."

"Yes, yes, I owed HeI Ge's money". Fang Jinghua nodded again, and after seeing Hei smiled with satisfaction, he continued timidly, "But not as much as 3 million."

"Why didn't you lost so much? Last night you lost to gambling, its nearly two million? There is also the 400,000 you owed before. Is there no interest for such a long time? And the lost work costs of my brothers."

Black Brother stared at Fang Jinghua fiercely, and took a dagger from her hand and put it on her face. "All together, do you say it is enough for three million?"

Seeing that he was holding a dagger on her face, Fang Jinghua was scared and nodded, "Yes, yes, it's three million, yes."

"You are intimidating. I advise you to leave as soon as possible, or I will call the police!" Xia Yuxi listened to the conversation between the two of them with her arms folded. Although she was scared in her heart, she forced her to stare at them directly.

Not to mention that she doesn't have three million now, even if she have, she can't give them to them casually.

"Yes, you call the police. Your mother put the signature on the black and white paper. We didn't break the law." Hei Ge took out the loan in his pocket and shook it in front of Xia Yuxi.

Xia Yuxi took it to see that there was indeed Fang Jinghua's signature and handprint on it, but the amount was only 1.8 million. But no matter how much money it was, she would not be able to afford it at the moment.

She didn't have so much money left last time. This amount is not a small amount. Looking at the invoice in her hand and her mother in the gangster's hand, a feeling of powerlessness appeared in her heart, which was still familiar, just like she had experienced more than once.

But now she is not in a mood to examine why she feels this way. It is the most important thing to get rid of the predicament in front of her and rescue her mother.

But what can she do? Is it really like Liu Zhiyan said, she still depends on Wei Zexuan? Thinking of this, Xia Yuxi felt a dizzy head, and she couldn't help but stepped back.
