Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband! Chapter 1152 - 1154: Do You Regret Being with Me?

"Alright, I won't dare anymore. From now on, even if I go out, I’ll bring you along, okay?" Ziyang affectionately ruffled her hair before moving to sit on the sofa.

"That’s more like it!" Tianxin said with a pleased smile.

"Does your hand still hurt?" Ziyang’s gaze was filled with concern as he looked at her bandaged arm.

She had been insistent on tending to him these past few days, a situation he couldn't very well object to.

Her duties were limited to feeding him meals and water, with all other tasks handled by the servants.

Moreover, she was well aware of her own physical condition and refrained from any reckless actions.

"It doesn’t hurt anymore," Tianxin replied, shaking her head.

"You can’t be so reckless next time, understand? How could you threaten the master and madam by attempting to jump off the building!" Ziyang’s reprimand was stern.

He had been led to believe by his brother that she had broken her foot trying to see him, assuming she had merely tripped.

The revelation that she had actually climbed down from the balcony and fallen was unexpected.

It had sent him into a panic, but thankfully, she hadn't been in any life-threatening danger.

Otherwise, he…

"I didn’t jump off the building; that was just the maid’s misunderstanding!" Tianxin clarified with a blink, surprised by the maid’s embellishment of the event.

On that day, she had only managed to climb over the balcony railing. While descending, her grip on the bedsheet slipped, causing her to fall.

Then, the maid had spun it into a narrative of a suicide attempt…

Which had even led to her mother fainting…

This outcome had both its advantages and disadvantages; at least she finally got to see Brother Ziyang, which was a positive development!

Had it not been for the misunderstanding about jumping off the building, she wouldn't have seen Brother Ziyang, nor would she have known about his severe injuries.

She wouldn’t have been able to stay by his side to care for him either.

"Climbing over the balcony was wrong; what if something had happened to you!"

"I wouldn’t rest until I saw you! Even if I had to truly jump, I wouldn’t have been afraid!"

"Preposterous!" Ziyang exclaimed loudly.

"But I wanted to see you too. Don’t you want to see me…" Tianxin pouted, her grievance evident as she looked at him with teary eyes.

If Ziyang continued to scold her, she felt tears would be imminent…

"Of course, I want to see you, but you shouldn’t be so reckless," Ziyang’s tone softened considerably upon seeing her tear-filled eyes, hesitant to be harsh.

"I wasn’t being reckless; I had a plan, but there was a small, unforeseen issue." Tianxin blinked awkwardly, asserting that her plan had been foolproof.

Indeed, her plan was flawless, with the only snag being her own limited stamina, which led to its eventual failure.

This, in turn, resulted in the so-called misunderstanding about jumping off the building.

"You call that a plan? It's pure nonsense!"

"Ah, my knee hurts…" Tianxin frowned in discomfort, glancing down at her knee.

"Let me see!" Ziyang’s panic was immediate as he hurried over, knelt down, lifted her skirt, and examined her knee.

She was wearing a long skirt, which conveniently concealed her injury and made bandaging the wound easier.

Her knee was wrapped in thick white gauze, a sight that filled Ziyang with distress.

He looked up at her, his voice laced with pain, asking,
