Chapter 167 – Clearing the air
After the two had fought for a while, peace finally returned to the ward and Mia nestled quietly into Asher’s arms, a happy smile finally spreading across her stunningly beautiful face.
“Mia , you don’t know, when I heard what you said just now, I couldn’t help but hold you in my arms for a long time …,” gently stroking the little woman’s hair in his arms, Asher’s voice carried a faint smile. Knowing Mia’s heart, he was now in a great mood.
Pouting in discontent, Mia questioned Asher, “If you’ve woken up long ago, why are you still pretending? Also, all those doctors and nurses were bought off by you too, right? To have so many people working together to lie to me is outrageous!”
“Ugh, if I had come to my senses earlier, how would I have heard your heartfelt words?” Building the small woman in his arms tighter, Asher smiled with a faint tease, “Besides, you’re still a famous doctor, haven’t you noticed that my face is pale, because of the makeup?”
Mia opened her mouth, finally not retorting, and yes, she admitted that in seeing the doctors and nurses straining to get in and out of Asher’s hospital room, in seeing his scowl, she hadn’t even thought hard enough to judge.
Her feelings, when it came to Asher, were always one step ahead of her sanity.
This, this is love, right?
Five years ago, she’d left regardless, but five years later, she’d returned to him just the same. The hatred she thought was so deeply rooted soon dissipated and never existed again.
She realized that whatever hatred existed, as long as they were well with each other, that was God’s greatest favor, wasn’t it?
Just as Mia was musing, Asher’s warm lips, had covered her soft lips and were soon driving in long enough to tangle with her little tongue with abandon.
The kiss, long gone because of the feud between them, seemed unusually sweet and lingering, both abandoning all distractions and sinking everything into the one kiss, Asher having long ago placed his large hand against the back of Mia’s head, deepening the kiss and claiming her sweetness even deeper.
“Asher, haven’t you noticed that this car accident we had, went a little strange?” After the two got mushy for a while longer, Asher finally let go of the small woman in his arms and Mia panted and spoke.
Asher’s face, which was full of smiles a moment ago, quickly flashed a hint of gloom, and his voice immediately turned icy, “I’ve sensed something was wrong for a while now. But let’s not startle the snake, let’s pretend we don’t know anything first and see what happens.”
“Asher, that’s what I was thinking, if the other side is harming us, they won’t stop, so if she shows her hand, we can catch her.” Nodding her head, Mia quickly agreed to Asher’s suggestion.
In fact, she had a candidate in mind for a long time, she just didn’t say it for the time being. Asher, before he knew who this person was, he was just waiting for the right time too.
Regaining her grip on Mia’s shoulders, the tenderness on Asher’s face almost drowned her, “It seems that after spending time with me, even your thinking has changed. Isn’t that right, my little woman?”
“Bad egg, who’s your little woman, let go of me.” While her mouth resisted, Mia’s stunningly beautiful little face revealed a sweet, happy smile.
Just as they continued to get mushy, a taunting voice came from behind them, “Ouch, in broad daylight, will you guys stop being so mushy, how is this going to make me, a single man, live with myself? Please, both of you.”
With a helpless sigh, it went without saying that the big grinning voice must be Claude, whom he hadn’t seen for a few days.
Mia’s beautiful face turned red with shame at the thought of being touched by Claude, who had just walked in, and her cheeks rolled, so she didn’t dare to look at Claude, who had walked in, and buried her face in Asher’s embrace.
“Claude, I’ve been in the hospital for a while now and I’m having a hard time clearing my head, and you won’t leave me alone? It seems that I still set you up too lightly, I need to do some soul-searching.” Being held around the waist by the small woman, Asher’s mood was even better, and even his words turned more.
Grumpily finding a seat, Claude looked at the current scene and tsked, “Gee, it’s really hard to see how fast you two can change colors, it takes my breath away.”
“Claude…” trailing off helplessly, Asher gave the small woman in his arms a quick glance and hurriedly warned Claude. he knew Mia was rather thin-skinned, and if he was annoyed by Claude’s comment, there was no telling if he would ever to pay attention to himself!
They’d only just made up, and he didn’t want the little woman to mess with him again!
Seeing his best friend’s look, Claude shook his head helplessly, “Well, Asher, I came here to see you and to tell you about the company, which is in trouble because of the previous …”
“Well, Claude, I’m just getting a little better and don’t want to think about such tedious things. Let’s talk about the company after we get there, it’s going to be hard on you for a while.” Feeling the small woman’s body stir in his arms, Asher immediately shook his head at Claude, signaling him to stop talking.
He knew Mia’s temper, and she would be worried if she knew the current state of the company.
Mia got out of his arms and blushed and said to Asher and Claude, “Well, it occurred to me that I have a lot to do, so I’m going to go out for a bit while you guys talk!”
Claude was talking about the company in front of her, so she thought that there must be a lot of problems with the company. She could also think that it must have had a lot to do with her, and Asher wouldn’t let it be said because he was just afraid that she wouldn’t feel comfortable hearing it in her mind.
When Mia walked out, Claude nodded thoughtfully and smiled ambiguously at Asher, “It seems that men who have love are really different, and there really is no way for us single young men to compare.”
Knowing that Claude was teasing himself, Asher was in a surprisingly good mood and said with a light smile, “Claude, who doesn’t know that you’re chasing a whole bunch of women behind you, you don’t know how many women’s hearts you’ve broken, so don’t come pretending to be pure with me!”
The corners of his mouth were raised high, and the smile on his face was hard to conceal, further setting off an unusually handsome face, and his pair of black eyes were like stars in the night, bright and unusual.
“Alas, it seems that a man with love is in a good mood. Then, the matter of the company, I guess it won’t be a big deal. It’s been a while since you’ve done anything out of line because of what happened with Mia.” Claude laughed, “Seeing you now, I’m starting to worry for those people.”
Asher also said lightly, “Don’t worry, when the time comes, I will be merciful. Also, you should pay more attention to Lina, I underestimated her before, but I didn’t expect her to do anything! I will definitely allow her to hurt Mia again!”
No matter what she’d done before, if she ever hurt the woman he cared about most again, he wouldn’t let her off so easily!
“Well, I’m relieved to see you now. Well, there’s nothing wrong with me, but, just before I came, I saw your old man’s car, I guess, you will have to suffer later, haha …” At the end of the sentence, Claude laughed without any sympathy.
Then, it was a quick dodge. Though it was a reminder to Asher that he didn’t want to get hurt by anyone physically.
Sure enough, shortly after Claude left, Grandpa Jun arrived at Asher’s hospital room, assisted by a maid. Asher frowned helplessly, all these people came to visit him as if they had agreed to do so.
Still, it was better for him to be alerted to Grandpa Jun’s visit.
“Grandpa, I have nothing to do, you can just stay at home, why are you still coming over?” Seeing Grandpa Jun trembling and sitting down in front of himself, seemingly a dozen years older than before, a faint pain welled up in Asher in addition to helplessness.
Even if Grandpa Jun is strong, he’s too old to take any more huge hits, after all!
Grandpa Jun sat down as if he had used his best strength and his wrinkled face was full of concern, “Asher, how have you been, are you feeling better? Be well, how did this happen, what are those drivers doing for food?”
Even though he spoke with some breathlessness, the residual power of his body still existed, and these almost words still made the servant around him shudder and hastily hang down his head.
“Grandpa, it’s fine, it’s just that something happened to the car, it might have been tampered with, so it’s like this.” Asher’s voice was light but with a hidden sulk at what had happened earlier.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Grandpa Jun stood up abruptly and repeated with a grim face, “Tampered with? What kind of person is it that has the audacity to tamper with your car?”
“Grandpa, I’m sure you know that in our Jun family, there are a few people who dare to move the car’s hands and feet, right? I just got in the way of a certain amount of favors and didn’t have her to settle the score.” Speaking lightly, Asher watched Grandpa Jun’s reaction closely.
Sure enough, Grandpa Jun’s cheeks trembled slightly and his mouth opened wide in disbelief, trembling for half a day before he finally said in a fierce voice, “Asher, you are my grandson, and even if others are closer, they are not as close as my grandson. If anyone dares to hurt you, grandpa will be the first one to let her go!”
He was worried about Grandpa Jun’s attitude when he found out about it, but now that he saw Grandpa Jun’s attitude, Asher’s heart finally dropped.
He knew that this matter, even if he found out the truth, would not be difficult for him.
