This face, Xiao Qian would never mistake it.
Healthy wheat-colored skin, high nose bridge, slender single eyelids, tightly pursed lips, just a side face, already showing a clear and handsome appearance, the cold temperament comes from the rarely expressive face, at first glance, it looks a bit like the innocent character from “The Grave Robbers’ Chronicles,” but more powerful.
If the wheat-colored skin were replaced with fair skin, and the face shape were changed to a melon-shaped face like her own, making the contour slightly softer, this man would look like her daughter Xiao Wei; he super resembles her daughter.
To be precise, her daughter looks like him because he is her daughter’s biological father, Yu Minglang!
Yu Minglang was originally on a mission in this area according to the plan, but seeing the danger he rushed out directly.
A madman was no match for Yu Minglang; he was directly subdued and his hands were tied behind his back.
The madman was unwilling to accept defeat, mumbling in his mouth, “You invading bandits, I’ll never submit!”
Yu Minglang took out a rope from his pocket and tied him up tightly, even playing along with a sentence.
“Though I die, my spirit lives on. Success comes from sacrifice and achieving great unity!”
The madman was stunned, admiringly saying, “Sir, are you a fellow believer as well?”
Although the madman didn’t understand, but he seemed to feel how amazing it was.
Yu Minglang had already tied the man up, “Remember, don’t take the common people’s needle and thread.”
“Yes!” The madman was convinced by him.
“Pfft!” Xiao Qian was amused by Yu Minglang.
In fact, she had always suspected that Yu Minglang, with his poker-faced and icy demeanour, had the heart of a young literary artist, but he would never admit it.
Watching his conversation with the madman just now, Xiao Qian was sure that her judgment in her past life was correct.
As she smiled, Yu Minglang’s gaze was drawn to her, and he finally noticed – wasn’t this the same beauty mark as Zhou Zhiruo?
Just now when he looked through the scope, he only felt that the girl looked very delicate, but at a closer distance, Yu Minglang felt as if a summer breeze blew across his heart, warm and fresh.
Her skin was exceptionally fair, like tender silky tofu that would break if you poke it with your finger. Underneath her silver-rimmed glasses, her eyes looked cunning and spirited, unable to control himself, he looked at her Zhou Zhiruo-like beauty mark again. The combination of her facial features made her a girl you can’t help but feel comfortable looking at.
“Oh my god, I’m so scared.” Jia Xiufang was still unsettled, patting her chest, tossing the brick in her hand, and thanking Yu Minglang.
“Thank you so much, uh, do you want to come into our house and have some water?”
Up to now, Jia Xiufang hadn’t figured out where this domineering man had come from – did he jump down from the sky? Anyway, no matter how, he saved her and her daughter.
“Thank you, no need. Do you know this person?” Yu Minglang shifted his gaze from Xiao Qian back onto the conversation.
“He’s Aunt Qi’s son from the front yard of our house; he went crazy and ran out every now and then, and then…”
Jia Xiufang is a typical chatterbox, no matter whether others want to listen or not, once she starts talking, she can go on endlessly.
On this first day of Xiao Qian’s new life, he saved her again.
This was a few years earlier than when he saved her in her past life.
Befriending Yu Minglang in her past life was one of the few things she regretted. At that time, she went to a bar to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
Unexpectedly, she encountered a robber, and the knife was held against her neck, which scared her terribly.
After several unsuccessful negotiations, Yu Minglang, who happened to pass by, stepped in. Chen Xiaoqian clearly saw how this man saved her, his actions, his gaze, were simply amazing.
After being saved, she slumped on the ground, and Yu Minglang covered her with his coat. The first words he said to her were: “Don’t wear skirts when it’s cold out, avoid places like bars.”
Afterward, she used various methods to obtain his contact information. As a highly educated and beautiful female doctor, pursuing him was like having no competition, and conquering him was easy.
Later, when he had already bought a wedding ring, she ran away due to some reasons, and she was pregnant with a daughter when she left…
Unexpectedly, he had been searching for her for so many years, and even shed tears for her before she died.
Now that they meet again, both are young, but their already old hearts uncontrollably beat at the sight of a young Yu Minglang.
Seeing him reminds her of her daughter – perhaps there are other reasons as well. Regardless of what it is, Yu Minglang’s early appearance causes Xiao Qian to lose her usual composure and elegance, only able to stand blankly on the spot, staring at him.
Her mother’s endless chatter could hardly stop, but he didn’t get annoyed. He just stood upright, and his eyes seemed to be looking at her, he was looking at her, right?
Xiao Qian’s face warmed, and she scolded herself inside, having lived such a long time, why was she still being so abnormal in front of a young lad like this?
He wasn’t just an ordinary boy; he was a boy who looked extremely similar to her daughter…
“Young Boss!” The secretary came running, interrupting Jia Xiufang’s endless chatter.
“Ah, you guys actually jumped down from the 3rd floor! Hey, young lad, are you hurt?”
Xiao Qian looked at the three-story building not far behind her, so just now, they were lurking up there.
“I’m alright, auntie…” The young man scratched his head, and then turned to Yu Minglang with a troubled face.
“The boss knows about your unauthorized action, he’s so angry, he’s cursing on the radio…” The company’s annual fire drill was disrupted by Yu Minglang.
“The lives and property of the people are above all else, let’s retreat!”
Although the drill was fake, real danger still came from the people; even if he had to be scolded by the old man, Yu Minglang didn’t regret it. In that critical moment, he rushed out to save Zhou Zhiruo – no, to save the people!
The madman who was tied up, hearing Yu Minglang’s bold and domineering words, shouted admiringly, “Hero, I am proud of you!”
“Remember not to hurt the people in the future.” Yu Minglang retreated quickly with his observers, brushing past Xiao Qian.
In that moment, all of Xiao Qian’s memories of him surged to her heart.
Once upon a time, this man had walked her through wind and rain, autumn, winter, spring, and summer.
Once, he held her dying body, in pain, his tears also fell on her.
After all, he was the only man with whom she had intimate contact in her previous life, and her daughter’s father; how could she forget?
However, at this moment, as her hair brushed against his cheeks, he remained motionless, leaving only a cold profile and a back that did not turn back.
Xiao Qian suddenly felt her Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder flare up, her heart becoming very irritable.
Suddenly, that domineering figure stopped, turned around, and ran back towards Xiao Qian.
