Chapter 381: Chapter 381: The Warmth He Radiates_1

She felt a painful urgency, as though something vital had been hollowed from her, causing tremendous torment.

Hai Rong, too, regretted selling it, though his regret was that he had sold it too early!

But, it was already sold…

Thinking about the loss of 10 million, he was irritated and remarked, “It’s already sold, there’s no way to get it back! You’ll have to figure out your own solution”

Having finished speaking, he took Zhang Yu’s hand and left.

Hai Xiaotang was also led back into the room by Dongfang Yu.

“Miss, are you okay?” Mother Zhang, troubled, made an enquiry. The fact that the old family home was sold also saddened her deeply.

Too heartbroken to respond, Hai Xiaotang could only stay silent. Dongfang Yu asked nonchalantly, “Mother Zhang, do you have any bruise medicine?”

“Yes, I’ll fetch it now!”

Dongfang Yu pulled Hai Xiaotang to sit on the couch, taking the bruise medicine from Zhang’s mother, and taking her bruised arm in his hand.

It was summer, and Hai Xiaotang was only wearing a white short sleeve T-shirt.

The blow Hai Rong had landed on her arm was solid, the spot was now swollen and turning purple.

Dongfang Yu somberly applied the medicine to her arm.

Perhaps the pressure was too much; Hai Xiaotang started shedding tears.

A teardrop fell onto the back of Dongfang Yu’s hand…

He paused slightly, lifted his eyes to look at her, and asked in a deep voice, “Does it hurt much?”

Hai Xiaotang quickly wiped her tears while saying, “Hmm, a little.”

It was mostly because it was heartbreaking, that it was hard to hold back the tears.

Dongfang Yu was aware of what the old house meant to Hai Xiaotang. This place was her home, where she had grown up, and, in a way, her refuge.

But now that it had been sold in such a way, it was all too hard for her to bear.

Besides, the behaviour of Hai Rong and his spouse was indeed outrageous and chilly…

Dongfang Yu continued to massage her arm, stating flatly, “I will find a way to buy the house back, trust me. We will keep the house.”

Hai Xiaotang looked at him, stunned.

Dongfang Yu lowered his gaze and continued to apply the medicine with care, his expression inscrutable.

And yet, Hai Xiaotang could feel the warmth he was emitting…

Yes, at that moment, she could feel the warmth Dongfang Yu was sending distinctly.

“What are you looking at?” Dongfang Yu suddenly looked up at her and asked directly.

Coming back to her senses, Hai Xiaotang said uncomfortably, “Never mind, the house has been sold already. There’s no need to spend money buying it again, and Uncle and the rest of them aren’t going to fork out the money they’ve gotten.”

Her words suggested that she didn’t want him to go to such expense.

Of course, Dongfang Yu understood her concerns, he replied lightly, “I owe my grandfather a lot, don’t misunderstand. What I do is all to compensate my grandfather!”

Hai Xiaotang’s eyes flickered, “Grandfather wouldn’t want you to do this. He wouldn’t need you to do these things to make up to him.”

“You are not him, how could you know? Moreover, it wouldn’t cost much to buy it back.”

Hai Xiaotang was shocked, “Why?”

Dongfang Yu’s black pupils were dark and woeful, “To make your uncle and the rest spew out the money.”

“But, they won’t!”

“I have my ways, you just wait for the good news.” After saying this, he continued massaging her arm. The medicinal liquor could only permeate when it was vigorously rubbed.

Perhaps due to his skill, slowly, Hai Xiaotang really didn’t feel any more pain.

After applying the medicine, Dongfang Yu left, naturally intending to find a way to buy back the house.

Hai Xiaotang was left with Zhang’s mother to tidy up the room and put everything back in its place.

It took both of them a long time to get everything sorted out.
