Chapter 19
Tang Yu’s sudden warm embrace stunned Miles.
He quickly reacted, hugging Tang Yu tightly and asking gently, “Xiao Yu, what’s wrong? Did something happen to your father again?”
Tang Yu nodded.
Miles looked around. He embraced her before inviting her into his car. “Let’s get in the car first.”
Her mood got a lot better as she calmed down in the car.
She raised her head,looking at her husband. Even after school, he was still dressed in the same way as he did this morning. His hair was separated and pulled back into a small ponytail.
By just changing his hairstyle, Miles had seemed to have transformed into a completely different person.
His clothes, although not as nice as his homewear, still made him look like a fellow scholar or even a professor regardless. He seemed to have a different kind of handsomeness.
Tang Yu did not know that a man with a ponytail could be so good-looking.
Was it because he looked so good that her mood had improved?
She did not know.
Miles handed her a glass of water. “Would you like to tell me about your troubles?”
Tang Yu sighed. “I was panicking! Tang Yun found me today. Not only today, my uncle also called me yesterday . Judging from their attitude, it seems that they will definitely force me to marry Davis.”
Tang Yu frowned.
When her father had just fallen ill, she had indeed looked for her uncle, asking him for ways to pay the medical bill. She wanted to save her father’s life no matter what.
However, her uncle had unexpectedly sold her away to a fifty-year old man!
Her uncle’s assets had already been no less than ten million.
However, if he still did not want to help, then so be it. Yet, he had wanted to sell Tang Yu for his own benefits. Of course, she would not stand for this!
That was why she had gone to look for Huo Jun instead.
The frowning husband asked, “Davis? Which Davis?”
Tang Yu thought for a moment. “I think his name was Davis Carr.”
“Didn’t you tell them that you don’t need their help anymore? Haven’t you already settled this matter yourself?”
Tang Yu shook her head. “Of course I told them, but they didn’t believe me.”
The memories of her uncle scolding her furiously still remained.
Continuing her sentence, she said, “Today, Tang Yun threatened me to stop my father’s treatment if I didn’t comply. I panicked, afraid that something would happen to my father. That was the reason why I came rushing here. How did you know that I was here?”
Miles reached out and pinched Tang Yu’s face. “I asked everyone at school if they had seen you. Now that you’re such a big celebrity, someone immediately pointed me in the direction where you had taken a taxi and left. I naturally figured that based on where you were heading, you would be going to see your father.”
Sticking out her tongue, she pouted, “You say that as if you weren’t one of the main characters in the scandal that tarnished my reputation this morning! Yet they only bombarded me, since they didn’t even notice you! Fortunately for you, I was able to defuse the situation.”
Miles nodded lightly. “Yes. I’ve already hired a lawyer to file a lawsuit against Ms. Li Hui.”
Her eyes widened. “Are you serious?”
He smiled. “Of course. It’s her fault for ruining our reputation as husband and wife. Don’t you think so?”
His smile sent chills down Tang Yu’s spine. Was it an evil smile? Tang Yu swiped the thought away, thinking that it was just her imagination.
Miles was a very gentle and kind person. How could he have an evil side?
Li Hui should indeed be taught a lesson anyway. That way, no one would attack her randomly in the future.
Seeing that Tang Yu did not object to his actions, Miles’ favorable impression of her had unknowingly increased.
“You handled the scandal this morning very well. But what are you going to do about Davis? Do you need my help?”
Denying the offer by waving her hand, Tang Yu replied. “No. I can handle it myself. Perhaps, an advice would be nice the next time I complain to you. If I really can’t handle it, you will help me, right?”
Miles had done so much for Tang Yu, and she did not want to owe him anymore. Furthermore, she did not want to be a woman who would only rely on her husband.
Miles smiled. “Of course. Just tell me what you’re planning first?”
Tang Yu’s body moved closer to Miles. Her face was right next to his ears as she whispered softly…
