Chapter 273: Villainous Bestie (33)
Author:妹纸爱吃肉
“Eat?”
Upon hearing the word “eat,” Xia Beibei’s eyes instinctively lit up. Then she thought of something, pouting pitifully, she raised her muddy little foot and showed it to Yan Yicheng. “I got too immersed in the act just now and forgot to wear my shoes!”
Yan Yicheng: …
“I’ll carry you!”
Yan Yicheng’s eyes flashed, and then he bent down and held Xia Beibei horizontally in his arms.
Everything around them was still frozen. Yan Yicheng carried Xia Beibei through this suspended world.
For some reason, Xia Beibei suddenly thought of a name—My Boyfriend Is a Superhero.
Um…
In any case, she felt very proud and happy.
This baby was so happy that she wanted to cry…
They arrived at an elegant restaurant. Yan Yicheng put Xia Beibei in her seat, then naturally held her foot, gently placing it on his knees. He took out his handkerchief and gently and carefully wiped it for her.
Seeing Yan Yichen’s careful movements and serious and gentle look on his face, Xia Beibei couldn’t bear it anymore and whispered in a low voice: “That… I still keep that handkerchief.”
Upon hearing Xia Beibei’s voice, Yan Yicheng’s movements paused momentarily. Then he raised his gaze and looked at her tenderly. “If you like it, I’ll buy you another one when we return.”
“Um.”
Xia Beibei nodded vigorously, then immediately lowered her face to conceal her flushed cheeks and teary eyes…
She wanted to pretend she didn’t know it was him, but now, she couldn’t hold back anymore.
Boss Yan, you’re so gentle, it’s practically breaking the rules! It’s breaking the rules!
After Yan Yicheng helped Xia Beibei clean both feet, he snapped his fingers, and time slowly began to flow again.
The waiter in the restaurant didn’t seem too surprised by the sudden appearance of a couple. Instead, he smiled and came forward to take their order. Xia Beibei ordered a table full of dishes. At this time, Yan Yicheng took out his phone and called his subordinates. Before long, someone rushed in, put down a brand-new shoebox, and tactfully left.
The box contained a pair of brand-new and very beautiful women’s shoes.
Xia Beibei suddenly remembered her favorite fairy tale from her childhood.
Every girl has fantasized about being a princess, a magical princess, or a princess who was loved by thousand people.
But as time passes and we grow older, we gradually realize that there is no magic in this world, let alone fairy tales.
Fairy tales are all lies.
Even so.
How many people still refuse to give up?
How many people still long for a miracle?
Will I, at the next corner, meet my prince?
Will he hand me a unique pair of crystal shoes belonging to me?
That vague expectation.
Xia Beibei also has the kind of little secrets that are kept deep in her heart that she never tells anyone about.
And at this moment, she felt as if she had encountered it.
That miracle that belonged only to her.
Seeing Xia Beibei staring at the pair of shoes in a daze, Yan Yicheng frowned slightly and couldn’t help but ask, “Do you not like them?”
“No, I really like them.”
Xia Beibei glanced at Yan Yicheng and beamed at him, then quickly put on the shoes on her feet.
They fit her perfectly.
***
It had been a long time since the two had eaten together, so Xia Beibei kept on serving food for Yan Yicheng, who naturally accepted everything.
“That car just now…”
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Xia Beibei remembered the main issue.
“It was Madam An who hired the killer.”
Yan Yicheng glanced at Xia Beibei. “In the original plot, Madam An didn’t like Wu Yan, and when she was in the hospital, she hired a private detective to investigate Wu Yan’s background. Now the An family knows everything about Wu Yan, and so does An Yichen. But he feels responsible for Wu Yan because he thinks that if he likes her, he should accept everything about her, but…”
“But, An Yichen will eventually realize that all he has left for Wu Yan is responsibility.”
Xia Beibei took over Yan Yicheng’s words. “He started noticing Wu Yan because of her kindness and their understanding, but later he realized that Wu Yan wasn’t as kind as he had imagined, and also… quite malicious.”
Sometimes, the disparity between imagination and reality can be too significant to accept.
An Yichen was like that, what about Wu Yan?
From the start, what Wu Yan pursued was a life of material abundance.
In the end, she received nothing—betrayed by her friends, and losing her innocence.
The person she liked fell for someone else who, in her eyes, was worthless, like Bai Tingting.
This kind of blow was also the most fatal to Wu Yan.
“So, as a naturally malicious woman, it’s time for me to be despicable and harm others, right?”
Xia Beibei looked at Yan Yicheng with a smiling face.
Yan Yicheng didn’t say anything, just nodded at Xia Beibei…
**
Two hours later, Xia Beibei was found by Butler Hua’s men on the street. At the time, her appearance was indeed very forlorn.
Butler Hua was very nervous and immediately sent someone to take Xia Beibei back. Two days later, An Yichen finally returned safely. He came back with the unconscious Bai Tingting.
It turned out that the two were trapped in one place during the earthquake. When a piece of concrete fell, Bai Tingting pushed An Yichen away at all costs.
An Yichen was saved, but Bai Tingting remained unconscious, and her face was cut by a steel bar during the accident, leaving a deep wound that would probably leave a long scar in the future.

In the hospital.
An Yichen, looking haggard, watched the unconscious girl in the ward. What kept replaying in his mind was what Bai Tingting had said that day—
“An Yichen, I… I like you.”
“I I know you won’t like someone like me, but it’s my own business that I like you.”
“Don’t be sad, live well… Wu Yan, she… still needs you.”
In the moment before she fell unconscious, she told him to live well and to treat Wu Yan well.
An Yichen realized for the first time that there were still such kind girls in this world, and that he had misunderstood her before…
****
Late at night.
An Yichen came out of the hospital, the expression on his face very complex. When facing the fear of death, a person would be more rational and clear-headed than usual.
That day, when he saw Bai Tingting close her eyes in front of him, thinking she would silently die for him, An Yichen’s heart was indeed deeply moved—
How many people are willing to die for you without asking for anything in return, disregarding everything?
