After Xia Lin returned to the dormitory, he took a shower and was about to go to bed to rest.

Suddenly he received a call from Zhou Shuo: "Brother Lin, Song Yan was beaten by the young master."

Xia Lin was startled: "What's the situation?"

"Ten minutes ago, Song Yan suddenly ran to the house and said that he wanted to talk to the young master alone. The young master took him into the study and made me leave them alone."

Zhou Shuo paused, "I didn't know what Song Yan said but after a few minutes, the young master was angry, looking for a baseball bat. "

"..."

Xia Lin recalled the phone call he had with Song Yan before. There was a sudden thud in his heart, it was broken.

Half an hour later, Xia Lin took a taxi, hurried home, and found that the house was quiet.

The lights in the rooms of Father Xia and Mrs. Xia had been turned off and there was no movement at all.

But the light on Xia Liang's study is still on.

Zhou Shuo led Xia Lin to the door of the study, knocked gently on the door, and said: "Young Master, Brother Lin is here."

There was a moment of silence inside the study and then Xia Liang's tired and helpless voice came out: "Let him come in."

Xia Lin pushed the door in and saw Xia Liang sitting on the sofa, his face sinking like water and a baseball bat in his right hand.

Not far in front of him, Song Yan knelt on his knees with his head down. Song Yan heard Xia Lin's voice.

Xia Lin secretly turned his head and gave him a pitiful look.

Xia Liang took the baseball bat and thumped on the floor. He could only obediently turn his head back.

Xia Lin didn't know what was going on right now and while looking at Xia Liang's face, he asked cautiously, "Brother, what's the matter?"

Xia Liang picked up the bat and pointed at Song Yan, then said to Xia Lin: "You rushed back so fast. Are you afraid that I will kill him?"

Xia Lin had nothing to say for a while. He didn't expect that Song Yan would actually run to Xia Liang to confess.

Xia Liang looked at Xia Lin with a look of hatred that could not be made into steel: "This kid treats you this way and you don't even say a word to your family. Doesn't matter what he does to you, you are so reluctant to accept it?"

"No, no," Xia Lin hurriedly waved, "I didn't feel sorry for him. I came to see what happened."

He looked back at the closed door and then said in a low voice: "You guys. Dad and grandma don't know what's happening here, right?"

Xia Liang snorted, "If Dad found out, would he still be kneeling here?"

Seeing Song Yan turning his head again to look at Xia Lin, he said coldly: "Kneel and behave properly. You don't even look like you are self-reflecting."

Song Yan immediately turned around and dared not move.

Xia Liang said to Xia Lin again: "Xiao Lin, what are your thoughts in your heart? If you really like him, even if I break his leg, I have to let the Song family recognize you. If you don't like him, we don't have to talk about the cooperation project with the Song family anymore. It would be closed and the liquidation would be settled. In short, there is no need for our juniors to come and go."

When Song Yan heard this, he became anxious: "Brother Liang, I really like Xia Lin. Please don't separate us. I am very sorry for Xia Lin and I will try my best to make up for it in the future. Please give me a chance. . ."

He must have said this to Xia Liang several times before.

Xia Liang didn't raise his eyebrows but looked at Xia Lin: "About giving him a chance, it all depends on your attitude, Xiao Lin. You can give a definite answer tonight. "

Xia Lin was silent for a moment and said, "Brother, can you let me talk to him alone?"

Xia Liang didn't speak but gave Song Yan a warning look, then stood up and left the study without saying a word.

Song Yan watched Xia Liang disappear outside the door. He was relieved.

Song Yan was just about to say something when he saw Xia Lin pointing at his head, so angry: "You! Why are you so muddle-headed!"

Song Yan looked innocent: "Didn't you say that your brother knows all about it? I thought that instead of being called by him, I should be more conscious and take the initiative to go to the house and plead guilty. Anyway, sooner or later I will propose to your family.

Xia Lin was choked by the word "propose".

Song Yan had never thought of it in his previous life. That is to say, he only talked about marrying him when he was dying, he was just coaxing him indiscriminately.

He just listened to Song Yan continue: "It was really wrong of me to use force on you before. At that time, my mind was not clear and I was excited for a while. But now, I have thought very clearly. As long as you are willing to accept me, I will do my best for you. What I owed you before, I will try my best to make up for what you want me to do..."

Xia Lin saw him talking endlessly so he hurriedly raised his hand to interrupt him and squatted down.

Looking at him, he lowered his voice and asked, "I'll only ask one question, what did you say to my brother?"

"I spoke of the incident that I used to force you before. He ran away as soon as he heard it. I haven't had time to say anything else."

Xia Lin immediately fell to the ground with a stone in his heart and exhorted: "Don't say anything that hasn't been said yet, especially the things in the previous life. Don't say it. Do you understand?"

"Oh."

Song Yan nodded, wondering if he really understood.

"That's it, you continue to kneel." Xia Lin patted him on the shoulder, got up, and left.

"Xia Lin," Song Yan hugged his leg and begged, "My knees are numb and your brother said he wants me to kneel here all night. Can you help me beg for mercy?"

"My brother didn't blast you out with a bat because he was afraid of waking up the elders in the family," Xia Lin looked at him condescendingly, "It's already a shame for you to kneel here and reflect on it so please be content!"

Original Author's Note in the Chinese Raws:

Regarding Zhou Shuo and Xia Liang, a lot have rebelled against this couple...

In order to not cause discomfort to your reading, let's talk about it in advance.

Zhou Shuo is an inferior loyal dog in the early stage, then domineering and affectionate.

Xia Liang is an enchanting queen who is cold and domineering in the early stage.

As for why the two have such a change, I won't spoil it for now 😘
