The Cold Wife's Domineering Marriage

As for Ling Xi, being the only girl among several generations of the Leng Family, everyone treated her with extreme care, cradling her in their hands; perhaps it was because she had been so well protected that when she was hurt, she chose to attempt suicide.

Oh!

Without realizing it, Ling Xi let out a soft sigh.

"Xixi, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and come down for breakfast. You should go to school with your second brother soon."

Seeing Ling Xi standing by the staircase on the second floor, lost in thought and not coming downstairs, Qin Shiran smiled and urged her.

What in the world is that girl thinking!

"Coming right away."

Ling Xi said this as she ran quickly down the stairs.

"Slow down, be careful you don't fall." That girl, running so fast, what would we do if she fell.

With a mischievous grin, Ling Xi stuck out her little tongue and quickly sat down beside Leng Jianjun, "Grandpa, grandma, have your meal, mom and dad, eat well, brother, enjoy your food."

Her expression, as if she were starving, amused everyone with laughter.

The dining table exuded a heartwarming atmosphere.

This is what home feels like!

...

She rode in Leng Yichen's car into the campus.

Getting out of the car, Ling Xi casually hooked her arm around Leng Yichen's, looking adorable as she headed towards the lecture buildings.

"Xixi, have you really decided not to keep your distance from me at school anymore?" Leng Yichen asked again, looking at his sister's completely at-ease demeanor.

He remembered that in the past, she would always make him drop her off in a deserted corner near the school, claiming she didn't want others to befriend her only because they knew their relationship; but this time, Xixi had actually requested to go to school with him, no longer keeping their distance.

However, this was fine by him; he wanted to see who would dare to bully the beloved treasure of the Leng Family with him there to protect her!

"Hey, look, Ling Xi is actually back at school!"

"She's got the nerve to come back? After being humiliated and rejected by Young Master Qi and Lin Qi, If it were me, I would have been too embarrassed to show my face and would have hidden far away," one student said.

"But how is she walking with Young Master Leng, and they look so close?" Jealousy laced the voice of the speaking girl.

"Yeah, seriously, Ling Xi wouldn't have been rejected by Young Master Qi, only to turn around and set her sights on Young Master Leng... Shameless," another student said with a tone that reeked of sour grapes.

Hearing the whispers around her and sensing the envious dagger-like stares from nearby, the playful smile on Ling Xi's face slowly morphed into a cold sneer; Leng Yichen's sharp, knife-like eyes casually swept over the crowd, silencing them instantly.

As the foremost among the four young masters of Beijing University, Leng Yichen's authority was not to be challenged.

Besides his own aloofness and excellence, behind him stood the Leng Family, with Leng Yilei known for his ruthless methods in the business world; they were definitely not people these folks could afford to offend.

Despite the affectionate way Leng Yilei and Leng Yichen treated Ling Xi at home, to outsiders, they were utterly indifferent, merciless, and cold to the core.

"Yo, is that not Ling Xi? You came to school! But I thought you had attempted suicide? Turns out it was just an unsuccessful attempt," an annoying female voice came from the side.

Ling Xi turned her head to see Lin Qi, hand in hand with Qi Yuanfeng, slowly approaching her, a slight smirk forming on her lips though her eyes were filled with icy coldness.

There's a saying that effort pays off when you least expect it, and she had never before seen someone so quickly offer themselves up for a beating!
