The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

Xie Yumin frowned as she looked at Xie Beiling. "Are you going to imprison me here?"

"Imprison?" Xie Beiling stroked Xie Yumin's forehead. "How could I bear to imprison you? Since you say you are my sister, it is only natural for you to live with your brother."

"No need, I have a place to stay, so I won't stay here and bother you." Xie Yumin avoided being touched and continued to declare that she was leaving.

Having finally brought her home, how could he possibly let her leave his sight again?

Xie Beiling stepped aside, watching Xie Yumin insist on leaving.

Why didn't he stop her anymore?

Doubts resurfaced in Xie Yumin's mind, but she dared not stop and continued walking forward.

Upon reaching the door, Xie Beiling still hadn't followed.

For some reason, Xie Yumin felt a sense of loss.

"Is she crazy? Isn't leaving exactly what she wants! Why are you still standing there instead of leaving as soon as possible!" Xie Yumin muttered under her breath, reaching out to turn the doorknob.

drop drop~

The door lock made a sound, but it didn't open.

Xie Yumin paused for a moment, then continued spinning.

"Fingerprint failed!"

An official female voice came from the door.

No wonder he wasn't in a hurry for her to leave!

Xie Yumin turned around and looked at Xie Beiling, who was standing next to the sofa with his arms crossed and a proud expression.

"Open the door!" Xie Yumin shouted angrily. "Xie Beiling, stop making a scene!"

What kind of nonsense is it to lock her up here? Like a canary hidden in a cage?

If the news reaches the Xie family, how will she face them? Xie Beiling certainly hasn't considered these questions for her.

Xie Beiling sat leisurely on the sofa, glanced at the furious Xie Yumin, and beckoned, "Come here!"

"Open the door!" Xie Yumin repeated her words.

She won't stay here.

Seeing that Xie Beiling was sitting on the sofa and showed no intention of getting up, Xie Yumin put both hands on the doorknob and tried to pry it open.

She refused to believe she couldn't open this door today!

After several attempts, the door emitted a sharp, loud bang. The sound was so loud that it echoed throughout the entire villa.

Xie Yumin, like a child who had done something wrong, quickly let go of her hands and covered her ears.

A minute passed, and the sound was still ringing.

"Come here and stop it from making noise!" Xie Yumin felt guilty because of the noise and turned to call out to Xie Beiling, who seemed indifferent.

Isn't he afraid of being complained about by his neighbors?

Xie Yumin glanced at the door, then at Xie Beiling, who remained seated calmly on the sofa. After a moment's internal struggle, she turned and faced the noisy door alone.

She tried various methods, but the sound not only did not lessen, but instead became louder and louder.

Xie Yumin was about to cry. She stared dejectedly at the door, feeling a surge of grievance.

Why did she go out today? And why did she soften her heart and get involved in Mengmeng's affairs? That way, she wouldn't have run into Xie Beiling, wouldn't have been brought here and wouldn't be stuck here with no way out, and wouldn't have to face the endless doors.

Seeing that she had stopped struggling and her stubbornness had disappeared, Xie Beiling got up and walked over from the sofa.

He reached out and touched the doorknob, and the jarring sound instantly disappeared.

Xie Yumin hung her head, knowing that Xie Beiling had appeared behind her, but she didn't look up to acknowledge him.

"Are you angry?" Xie Beiling's fingertips gently touched Xie Yumin's shoulder.

It had barely been put down when it was ruthlessly thrown away.

"Alright, I apologize, I won't tease you anymore." Xie Beiling affectionately put his arm around Xie Yumin's shoulder and forcefully turned her stubborn body around.

"Why are you crying?"

At this moment, Xie Yumin's face was covered with tears, and she had no energy left from arguing with him just now.

Xie Beiling hurriedly tried to wipe his tears, but the more he wiped, the more tears streamed down his face. He pleaded anxiously, "Don't cry, okay? If you're angry, hit me, vent your anger however you want, just please don't cry."

Seeing Xie Yumin still standing quietly and crying silently, Xie Beiling grabbed her wrist and slapped it hard against his chest.

Every time a fist was about to land, Xie Yumin would control it, preventing the force from hitting Xie Beiling's chest.

Several times, Xie Beiling tenderly stroked Xie Yumin's face, saying, "You feel sorry for me!"

With tears in her eyes, Xie Yumin looked up at Xie Beiling, who was beaming with joy, and clenched her fist, punching him hard in the chest.

As soon as the fist landed, Xie Beiling turned pale and squatted down, clutching the spot where he had been hit in extreme pain.

"Stop pretending!" Xie Yumin looked down at Xie Beiling, who was slumped on the ground, with indifference.

She knew how much force she had used in her punch. How could a grown man like him be bent over in pain because of her tiny fist?

"Is it fun to tease me? Xie Beiling, stop acting with such terrible skills!" Xie Yumin angrily rebuked.

Having said all that, Xie Beiling, who was sitting on the ground, did not immediately stand up; instead, he lay down on the ground.

He had been keeping his head down the whole time, so Xie Yumin didn't see his pale face.

Could it be true?

Looking down at her hands, she couldn't immediately recall how much force she had used.

"Xie Beiling, where exactly are you feeling unwell?" Xie Yumin knelt down worriedly. "Is it in your chest?"

Xie Beiling grabbed Xie Yumin's hand and placed it on the spot where she had hit her. "It hurts here...."

He couldn't even speak fluently, and he didn't seem to be faking it.

Xie Yumin hesitated for a few seconds, then worriedly reached out to help Xie Beiling up from the ground and led him to the sofa behind. "Lie down first, I'll get you a glass of water."

Xie Beiling pressed his hand hard against his chest, his face contorted in pain. Only when Xie Yumin, trusting him, worriedly went to pour him some water did his expression soften.

She has feelings for him!

"If the pain is too bad, you should go to the hospital," Xie Yumin said, bringing over a glass of water.

To make it more realistic, Xie Beiling deliberately fell off the sofa.

Bang~

He kicked the coffee table, then slammed his body against the edge, collapsing weakly to the ground.

Seeing this, Xie Yumin hurried to the sofa, placed her water glass on the coffee table, and bent down to ask Xie Beiling how he was doing, "Are you alright?"

"It hurts~" Xie Beiling responded weakly.

"Go to the hospital, your condition looks very serious." Xie Yumin reached for the phone next to her.

Once she got to the hospital, she would have a chance to escape. Xie Beiling would not allow this to happen again.

“No, I won’t go to the hospital!” he said firmly.

"But your chest hurts a lot?" Xie Yumin asked.

"Even if it hurts me to death, I won't let you leave me." Xie Beiling held Xie Yumin's hand tightly.

Xie Yumin looked at Xie Beiling's pale lips and his face contorted with pain, feeling incredibly conflicted.
