Yun Nan turned their hospital ward into an office. Since Fang Xi got hit by a car and was still unconscious, everything she’d been in charge of got urgently sent to Yun Nan, and Mika hadn’t slept or rested for several days.

Negative news about Fang Xi had also occupied the headlines and top of the trending searches; they couldn’t remove them even if they spent money. Those in Fang Xi’s public relations team were all pale from exhaustion and looked grim.

In tis like this, Yun Nan was very calm and steady. She’d encountered and dealt with countless crises ever since she was young. From the ti they’d cooperated as a school club in university until now, their group had risen to fa, not by the power of Yun Nan or Fang Xi alone, but by the joint efforts of their entire team.

Therefore, in the face of their greatest crisis to date, everyone went all out to et the challenge. They didn’t complain because Fang Xi was their family, and they didn’t grieve because tears wouldn’t solve anything.

Shi Nian witnessed the orderly manner in which Yun Nan was handling the problems, and his love and respect for her increased. ‘With a wife like this, what more can a man ask for? he thought admiringly.

Shi Nian beca a supernurary mber of Yun Innovations. Because they didn’t keep him from their etings—he and Yun Nan shared the sa ward, so they couldn’t—he would give them advice and counsel. After all, he was the chairman of more than a dozen listed companies. His perspective on problems and the way he handled them were on a higher level.

Yun Innovations’ staff soon discovered their “brother-in-law’s” superpower, so they shifted the more essential reports from Yun Nan to Shi Nian. Shi Nian was very pleased with himself, whereas Yun Nan found it funny and could only remind the others—and Shi Nian himself—from ti to ti that Shi Nian was a patient and needed to rest.

Thanks to everyone’s efforts, the administrative matters quickly got settled. However, negative news about Fang Xi was running rampant.

Mika’s expression was grave as he comnted, “I don’t know what’s wrong with that madam from the Xi family. She actually had an interview with a dia reporter and said that her son only has a fiancée. To quote her, ‘All the other won arejust flings that he doesn’t need to take any responsibility for. God knows how many won would fling themselves at her son all year round in the hopes ofmarrying into the Xi family! She just went and stabbed Fang Xi in the back once again with those words.”

Annie’s and ida’s eyes reddened. “The Xl family is kicking Fang Xi when she’s down. They know Fang Xi can’t defend herself now in her current state, so they’re throwing sh*t at her. This is plain bullying! They’re trying to crucify Fang Xi on the wall of sha.”

Yun Nan’s face darkened. “What about Xi Cheng? Did he say anything?”

ida shook her head. “Fang Xi might as well have fed her heart to the dogs,” she remarked darkly.

Yun Nan frowned and contemplated. “Even if Fang Xi is awake, it’s still useless for her to defend herself. Anything we do or say will be in vain if Xi Cheng won’t speak up for Fang Xi. The more we try to explain, the worse it’ll be instead.”

Annie looked at Shi Nian. “Mr. Shi, you and Xi Cheng are close friends. Can you… persuade him to speak up for Fang Xi?”

Shi Nian glanced at them and said nothing. ida pouted and grumbled, “It takes two to tango, so why is he making Fang Xi bear the reputation of a hussy alone? Is he a man or not?”

Shi Nian smiled wryly and tactfully replied after so thought, “Xi Cheng is… very filial. He won’t refute his mother.”

“He goes along with his mother even if she’s in the wrong?” ida angrily demanded. Shi Nian could only smile bitterly; there were so things that he was indeed powerless to do.

Yun Nan saw his helplessness and said, “Alright, let’s not dwell on this issue anymore. I don’t think Fang Xi will ask the Xi family for help if she’s awake, so why don’t we leave this matter be and let them say whatever they want?”

‘ We don’t know when FangXi will wake up. Perhaps these rumors would no longer need explanations when she wakes up,’ Yun Nan thought.

Although everyone at Yun Innovations felt indignant, they had no choice but to let the issue go. After everyone dispersed and left, Yun Nan didn’t speak for a long ti.

“Yun Nan, are you mad at ?” Shi Nian nervously asked. “I wasn’t able to help with Xi Cheng’s matter.”

Yun Nan sighed after a long while. “I am quite mad, but there’s no reason to be mad at you. You’re just a bystander who got involved in this ss. But I’m really quite angry.”

Shi Nian chuckled and stretched his hand out to Yun from his hospital bed. Yun Nan montarily hesitated before holding it. Shi Nian tried to cheer her up by joking, “I feel so aggrieved, Yun Nan. As an innocent and unlucky bystander, I very much want to call Xi Cheng over and beat him up!”

Yun Nan rolled his eyes at him. “What good would beating him up do? It’ll just be a waste of stamina! He is your buddy, and Fang Xi is my bestie. In the future, we should stand on our respective sides on Xi Cheng’s matter so that we won’t be in a difficult position with our friends!”

Shi Nian hurriedly said, “It’s no trouble at all! Of course, I’ll stand on your side!”
