Guide to Raising a Supporting Male Lead - Chapter 157

Chapter 157: No Escape

Xiao Tian hung up the phone and put it away, not giving Lin Xin any more chance to talk.

Having no choice but to acknowledge her current situation, Lin Xin thought: Everything I do now is useless. The most important thing is to recover.

She looked at Xiao Tian and said, “I’m hungry, I want to eat porridge.”

Xiao Tian immediately ordered and the servants quickly brought over a bowl of white porridge. He handed the porridge over to Lin Xin and she ate two spoonfuls. He took the porridge from Lin Xin’s hands and fed her. He thought if he treated her well, with time, she would certainly fall in love with him.

Lin Xin was originally hungry, but with Xiao Tian feeding her, she lost her appetite. Even so, she forced herself to swallow the bowl of porridge.

Xiao Tian put down the bowl and said, “Rest well for the next few days. Our wedding will be in two days. Don’t even think about escaping, or about Lin Xinyu coming to save you.

Last time he had fallen into Lin Xinyu’s trap because of a moment of carelessness. This time, he was determined to marry her so that everything would be arranged accordingly. He was a brilliant person, and he had power. It wasn’t clear where this was. It was impossible for her to escape with the current state of her body.

Lin Xin ordered another bowl of congee and endured the discomfort she felt. Under Xiao Tian’s affectionate feeding, she finished another bowl of congee. Then she fell asleep. When she woke up again, it was already the morning of the second day.

Xiao Tian had brought a few staff members with him. After setting up photography equipment in the room, Xiao Tian hugged Lin Xin and took a photo.

Not long after, he handed a red book to Lin Xin and said with a smile: “We are now husband and wife, regardless of death, illness and old age, we will never abandon each other.”

Lin Xin looked at the two red books in front of her. After staring blankly for three minutes, she finally realized something serious: the marriage certificate wasn’t a piece of paper. It represented that your expromissor was the other person in the picture. Half of what you owned belonged to him, not your parents.

The wedding was just to tell everyone that they were married, the real marriage was this piece of paper. She certainly did not agree with being tied to him forever. She hadn’t thought Xiao Tian would be this despicable. She threw the marriage certificate and lay down on the bed.

“When is the wedding ceremony?”

Xiao Tian said, “There’s no rush.”

Now that the marriage certificate was issued, what else was there to worry about?

Lin Xin covered her head with the blanket and curled into a ball, not wanting to say another word. Xiao Tian lifted up the blanket. Suddenly, she sprang and stretched out her right hand, scratching five bloody lines on his face.

Xiao Tian touched the scratches and said, “Scratch me as much as you want. In this life, you can only be with me.”

This was the first time Lin Xin felt powerless. She couldn’t change the situation, so she could only accept it. She was unwilling and helpless. The only thing she could do was to wait for Lin Xinyu to find her.

After that, she ate with all her might and then walked around the room. When she was tired, she would lie down and rest. Get up, eat again, walk again. Whenever she was too tired to walk, she would say to herself: Just hold on a little more.

No matter what happened, she couldn’t give up.

Xiao Tian watched her diligently exercise every day but didn’t stop her from doing so. He wasn’t afraid of her getting better. He was only afraid of her seeking death. Everything was under his control, there was no way she could escape.

After a few days, Xiao Tian saw that Lin Xin’s body had recovered a lot, and coincidentally, his father and mother came to visit. Xiao Tian introduced her to his family. The villa faced the sea, and Lin Xin remembered that there was no other villa in S City that faced the wide sea. What had happened in the past few days, she was certain it was within the country. However, she didn’t know exactly which city it was.

Xiao Tian was the only son of the family and his parents were still alive and well. His parents were sitting in the living room downstairs. Lin Xin recognized Mrs. Xiao. After more than ten years, she hadn’t changed much. On the other hand, the housekeeper behind her had aged quite a bit. Xiaoyu’s father, she had only seen through the media before. He had a square face and much kinder eyes than Xiao Tian. Behind him stood a man in his fifties. He wore gold-rimmed glasses that made him look like a refined university professor. He looked somewhat familiar, but Lin Xin couldn’t immediately recall where and if she had seen him. It must be his secretary, she thought.

Ever since he was young, his father had raised him, and at the age of twenty, he took over the company. He was much stronger than his father. When he saw that the person his son brought was a beautiful woman, he felt quite satisfied with Lin Xin.

Mrs. Xiao sized up Lin Xin, smiled benevolently, and asked a few questions about Lin Xin’s family background. Xiao Tian responded for Lin Xin. Mrs. Xiao gleaned that she was the little princess of the Lins and that her family was smaller than theirs. However, Lin Xin was much better than the small celebrities who appeared with her son in gossip magazines.

He was in his thirties, it was time to settle down and get married. She then asked them about when they were going to get married and set up the banquet. Xiao Tian only told them not to worry about it and that he had his own way of doing things. Mr. and Mrs. Xiao didn’t ask any more questions.

This was the first time Lin Xin had gone downstairs. She didn’t say anything and quietly observed her surroundings. Outside the large window were grass plains and beyond it was a dense forest and a blue sky. This villa had an area of at least a thousand square meters. There was also grass covering two to three acres of land on the outside. Where could this be?

Xiao Tian saw that she was sizing up the environment and said, “I’ll take you out for a walk.” He nodded to his parents and led Lin Xin out of the hall. He followed the cobblestone path all the way through the grass and through a forest. At the end of the trail was a vast sea.

Lin Xin was in a trance as the sun shone brightly in the sky.

Xiao Tian pointed at the helicopter parked in the distance and said, “See that? That’s the only way to leave the island.”

His words undoubtedly sentenced Lin Xin to death. This was a private island, the possibility of her escaping was zero.

How was she to leave this place!
