8 Misunderstanding?

<p>Lijuan wanted to stay and poke Xiao Hui more however she do not have the courage to stand before her aunt. She is really very scared of her aunt Nuwa. So she gave a polite bow to both her uncle and aunt and left with her Jingge with a smile.<br/>.....<br/><br/>Xuan Juan Yu greeted the couple with his usual straight face. The couple didn't get angry at his lukewarm behavior as they know that nothing can cause a ripple of wave in Juan Yu except Xiao Hui. And this fact is very much pleasing to them. But, in this moment, they are feeling extremely guilty towards him and blaming themselves for not raising their daughter well. Xiao Hui is really raised so pampered since young that she can't even differentiate between the good and bad. And its high time that she learns this basic difference and have little self awareness or else she'll be eaten alive at Xuan's house.<br/><br/>Hua Nuwa didn't bother to look at her daughter and went to sit on the couch. Her husband silently followed and took a deep sigh before sitting beside her. Chen Chao knows that her wife is extremely disappointed and angry with their daughter and its better for him to be on the sidelines so as not to be grinded in the middle.<br/><br/>Although he wants to help his daughter from his wife's wrath but this time his daughter really went too far. 'Its good to have a wife who can single-handedly tackle this spoiled brat. Huh, saves my breath.', snorted Chen Chao at his daughter. <br/>...<br/><br/>Juan Yu turned around to go to the couch but stopped as he realized that Xiao Hui didn't move. He looked at Xiao Hui just as she clutched her chest and was about to fall down. He moved quickly to catch her and helped her to the bed instinctively. Xiao Hui's parents also got concerned and came to check on her.<br/><br/>"Just why the hell did you try to pull off that stunt? Look at you! Is this how a bride on her wedding looks like?", scolded Nuwa. Chen Chao patted her shoulder to calm her down a little.<br/><br/>Xiao Hui heard every word of her mother and wanted to explain herself, not only to her mother but to Xuan Juan Yu as well. But the pain in her heart kept on increasing and a layer of cold sweat formed on her forehead. <br/><br/>Juan Yu took out his cellphone and dialed a number and ordered with a solemn face, "I will give you 5 minutes to come back here." and disconnected the call.<br/><br/>....<br/>The person on the other side ran as fast as he could because he knew better than to take Juan Yu's orders lightly. He just came out after checking up on Xiao Hui and was about to return to the hospital for his scheduled surgery but looks like 'I won't be doing today's surgery'.<br/>....<br/><br/>Xiao Hui can feel Juan Yu's distress and worry and she took hold of the corner of his sleeves and weakly said "I am fine". Juan Yu looked at his sleeve and doesn't want Xiao Hui to ever let go of her hold. But looking at her face that has turned white, his heart aches for her.<br/><br/>He went to pour her a glass of warm water and gave her, "The doctor will be here in a minute, drink some water". No one can see a single emotion from his face but the mess in his mind and the turbulence in his eyes can be felt each second as the other three could hardly breathe under his presence.<br/><br/>As the warm water entered her tummy, she felt a little sober from the pain and had an inkling on what's going on. She's yet not sure why Juan Yu's feelings are causing such strong reactions in her, but she knows it has something to do with her rebirth. <br/><br/>After drinking the water, she got hold of Juan Yu's hand and tried to sat up. Juan Yu tried to lie her down again but she looked at him and shook her head pitifully with misty eyes. So he helped her sit up in a comfortable position and put a pillow behind her back.<br/><br/>Looking at their interaction, Nuwa and Chen Chao both felt really confused. 'Nothing seems to be wrong between them. In fact, the progress is looking good. But then, why did Xiao Hui tried to ran away?', both thought. They soon got their answers as Xiao Hui looked at her parents and said to her dad, "Dad, go and close the door." She doesn't have the time to be reminiscent about meeting her parents again. Once everything is settled today, she'll find them to spend more time as they'll be there. She will make sure that they'll be there with her for a long long time and live a happy and healthy life. <br/><br/>Chen Chao turned around and went to close the door. No one in the world should ever think of ordering Li Chen Chao like this but it can't be more normal for Xiao Hui, his most beloved daughter, oh and only daughter. Xiao Hui needs to say a word and it will be done, personally by him, no matter what it was and how busy he was. It was the first and only time Chen Chao disagreed with his daughter when she wanted to marry Bo Jing and forced her to marry Xuan Juan Yu.<br/><br/>"Whatever excuse you give now, do you think it will justify your actions? Did we raise you for nothing? Do we have no say to whom you marry?", exploded Nuwa. Although she is worried sick about her daughter's health and knew that this is not the right time for this. But when she sees Juan Yu's empty eyes, she's ashamed of her daughter. This man has always behaved so docilely before her daughter as if he's committed some crime towards her and he's being punished. <br/><br/>He just fell in love with this idiotic daughter and is wanting to do everything for her, patiently waiting for her to see him by her side. So, at this moment, Nuwa felt that her daughter is like a wicked daughter in law who will never let her son be happy.<br/>.....<br/><br/>Xiao Hui is feeling better now and she started to brainstorm for a very plausible excuse that can salvage her current situation. She remembers this day vividly. She remembers that at this time the crowd was gathered in her bedroom and sneering and pointing at her, but this time only her parents are here and Bo Jing and Lijuan are gone as well. It looks like when I went on a rampant and threw everything on Juan Yu, was what gathered the crowd in her last life.<br/>'Good thing, none of that happened. I am off to a good start.', murmurs Xiao Hui under her breath.<br/><br/>"What are you murmuring in your mouth? Say it out loud now that the door is closed.", said Nuwa angrily.<br/><br/>Xiao Hui looked at Juan Yu and clearly felt that he's scared of listening to her answer. She took a deep sigh and thought 'I need a perfect foolproof excuse that will set aside any possible misunderstanding.'<br/><br/>Juan Yu looked at the undecided face of Xiao Hui and as she looked at him, he felt that Xiao Hui is reluctant to say it infront of him and he should give them privacy to discuss. He turned around to leave but his hand was held tightly from the back by a soft hand and he heard Xiao Hui say, "I tried to ran away because of Juan Yu".<br/><br/>Juan Yu was most afraid of hearing this type of sentence from Xiao Hui and wanted to leave but she still said it. He stopped in his track and didn't turn around. He felt cold all over his body.<br/><br/>Xiao Hui again felt that heart wrenching pain and instantly corrected her sentence, "I tried to run away because I wanted to meet Juan Yu to tell him something before the marriage."</p>
