Chapter 576 "I Also Need You, Ying"
As soon as Li Rui heard her father\'s words, she got up from the sofa she was sitting on and walked toward him.
"Father, what happened?"
General Li wanted to tell her everything when he suddenly realized that he didn\'t know whether she knows or not that it had always been Zhao Wang Lei who attacked her in the past.
In Li Rui\'s eyes, it had always been Princess Wenling who sent those shadow guards to kill her. Though Xi Ying told him that it was Zhao Wang Lei who sent those shadow guards yesterday, he still had his doubts as he couldn\'t really think of any reason behind Zhao Wang Lei\'s desire to kill his daughter.
But for now, General Li really felt guilty that in a rare moment of kindness and pity, he told Zhao Wang Lei\'s shadow guard that Yi Jie was now alright so he should go back to the Imperial Palace and inform his master about this.
Xi Ying would not come to such a conclusion if he was not so sure.
General Li thought inside his heart. So he should have never felt pity for the man who had deathly intentions toward his daughter and not so good intentions towards his wife.
Looking at his daughter who was waiting for him to answer her question, General Li lowered his head in guilt and said in a low voice.
"You first go and stop him from leaving the Xi Manor."
After that, he seemed to be afraid that Li Rui will ask him more questions so he said in an annoyed voice.
"This General also has a wife to take care of. You are his wife. Go and manage that crazy man."
After finishing his words, General Li left there hurriedly.
Li Rui could only sigh helplessly and hurriedly leave the Plum Courtyard to find Xi Ying.
Sure enough, she found Xi Ying near the entrance of Xi Manor.
Except for An Ju, now all the shadow guards she had seen in the past few days around him were there. Even An Si and An Su.
"We will go to the Imperial Palace and kill Zhao Wang Lei."
She stopped amidst her steps when she heard him saying these words to his shadow guard coldly.
The shadow guard surely looked startled on hearing his words but didn\'t dare to argue. They obediently nodded their heads and said in a chorus.
"Yes, Master."
So her father has been right.
Li Rui sighed as she stepped forward. She was about to call him when she was near Xi Ying. But suddenly, Xi Ying turned around as if he already knew that she was there.
His cold eyes immediately softened at her sigh and he walked forward to hold her in his arms before she could reach him.
"You are awake."
He stroked her cheek softly feeling her temperature.
"Why did you come out?"
As he said this, Xi Ying looked at Li Hua who was standing a few steps away from Li Rui with her head lowered.
"You should rest inside your room, Rui. I will be back soon."
He so wished to be there with his wife at such a time but Xi Ying had this strong urge to kill Zhao Wang Lei today.
More than that, he was angry with himself.
He should not have called An Shing to the Imperial Palace. An Shing should have been here to protect Li Rui. He could imagine Li Rui fighting with those shadow guards and it scared him very much.
She was pregnant. Fighting like that could have harmed her as well as his child.
As he thought this, Xi Ying\'s arms tightened around Li Rui\'s waist as if he was scared that she would vanish in thin air.
He only came out of his trance when he heard Li Rui asking him.
"Ying, where are you going?"
Li Rui asked him calmly. Usually, she would be very shy when Xi Ying would embrace her like this in front of servants or shadow guards but today she let him do so.
She silently waited for him to answer his question.
Xi Ying looked at his wife\'s calm face and he knew that she had already heard him so he said honestly
"I am going to the Imperial Palace."
Li Rui looked at him silently for a few moments. His deep black eyes were again filled with coldness and ruthlessness.
She smiled the next moment and said softly.
"But I don\'t want you to leave."
Xi Ying\'s cold eyes were suddenly filled with surprise when he heard Li Rui\'s words. But he soon understood that she was trying to stop him from leaving Xi Manor.
Though he really wished to stop after hearing her sweet words, he couldn\'t.
He removed his hands from Li Rui\'s waist and said firmly.
"Rui, I really need to go. I will kill that man today."
How dare he even think of such a vicious plan of killing his wife in his absence! Xi Ying could feel the rage inside his heart that urged him to destroy everything in this Empire.
Breathing heavily, he turned around and said to his shadow guards
"We shall leave now."
"Yes, Master."
The shadow guards said in a chorus.
However, before Xi Ying could use qingqong and jump in the sky, Li Rui suddenly ran towards him and hugged his waist from behind.
"Ying, don\'t go please…"
Xi Ying\'s heart felt itchy when he heard his wife\'s soft voice and the words she said to him. If it had been any other day, he would have thrown away everything and just done whatever she wanted.
But today it seemed difficult.
It was regarding her life. He couldn\'t bear to think that her life was in constant danger.
He steeled his heart and put his hands on her hands around his waist …trying to remove them as he said
"I need to go, Rui."
However, the next words really broke the string with which his firm resistance towards his wife was hanging.
"But I also need you here, Ying... with me."
