No wonder at the Liu He Villa, Gong Chen had interrupted her questioning and advised her not to say too much to Liu He for the ti being.
Gong Chen explained, "What you care about most is your mom, sa as my second brother. Your mom’s health is not suitable for being too involved. Let her focus on getting better."
It’s not easy for Gong Shiyan and Liu He to be together for so long.
Li Huan squeezed the examination report in her hand and punched Gong Chen on the shoulder.
"Wow, even Third Young Master is showing so compassion."
If it were the past, with Liu He as the source, Gong Chen would definitely use Liu He to find the answers he wanted.
Gong Chen lowered his head, patted his shoulder, and said seemingly casually, "No."
Lin Zhiyi knew he was embarrassed.
Chu Yin, sitting by the hospital bed, worriedly said, "So now there’s no solution at all?"
"The whole matter was triggered by the Bai Family. We still have to start with them, it’s not entirely hopeless."
After Gong Chen finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yin.
Chu Yin shuddered involuntarily upon sensing Gong Chen’s cold gaze.
Her neck stiffened as she turned, even gulping beca difficult.
"Third Young Master, why are you looking at like that?"
"You should have guessed."
"You want to seduce Bai Zhengxian!" Chu Yin scread, "I perform for a living, not sell myself! I might be a bit clever, but not enough to interest Bai Zhengxian!"
"I’ll help you..."
"No way!"
Before Chu Yin could refuse, Lin Zhiyi was the first to stand up and refuse.
"Chu Yin is already implicated because of , I can’t let her take any more risks. We don’t even understand the Bai Family’s intentions, sending her into the lion’s den—what if sothing happens, how could I repay her? Why should she sacrifice so much?"
Gong Chen wanted to say sothing but stopped.
Lin Zhiyi knew what he wanted to say and spoke first, "When both parties agree, it’s business; when one party doesn’t, it’s forced selling. I absolutely disagree!"
"Okay. I’ll listen to you."
Gong Chen nodded, no longer weighing the pros and cons of the matter as a businessman.
Lin Zhiyi felt relieved and turned to look at Chu Yin.
"Chu Yin, sorry, it’s all because of ."
"You’re not to bla, bla my greed and lust three years ago at the airport," Chu Yin joked.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the ward relaxed a lot.
After chatting a while, the sky outside gradually darkened.
Chu Yin kept glancing towards the door.
Lin Zhiyi understood her intent and directly pulled Gong Chen to get up.
"Chu Yin, rest well. We’re leaving now. If there’s anything, make sure to contact . Don’t shoulder it alone."
Chu Yin used to speak half-truths, but this ti she looked sincerely at Lin Zhiyi.
"Got it, thank you."
Walking out of the ward, Lin Zhiyi asked Li Huan to take care of Chu Yin more.
"I’m worried Chu Yin’s family will co looking."
"Rest assured, I’ll have the nurse keep a close eye," Li Huan said.
"Is Miss Ren doing well?" Lin Zhiyi asked.
"The lady is doing great, with a Green Dragon on the left and a White Tiger on the right."
Li Huan grumbled through clenched teeth before turning away.
Lin Zhiyi was confused.
"What Green Dragon, what White Tiger?"
"Ren Xiya’s two assistants, male. Most likely, they’re her people," Gong Chen replied.
"..."
The sister is truly not ordinary.
Subconsciously, Lin Zhiyi said, "That formidable?"
"Formidable? Lin Zhiyi, are you envious?" Gong Chen’s voice was cold and dangerous.
"Ah? No, I just..." Lin Zhiyi hastily explained.
"Am I not trying hard enough?"
"..."
Lin Zhiyi covered her face and walked away, followed by a towering man.
...
In the ward, late at night.
Chu Yin was asleep when the door quietly opened.
A man’s silhouette slowly approached the person on the bed.
Under the dim light, half of Chu Yin’s face was buried in the white pillow.
Black hair spread across the back of her head, highlighting her fair and beautiful half-face.
The man reached out towards her and whispered, "Ah Yin."
Sensing the call in her sleep, Chu Yin furrowed her brows.
"Ah Yin, it’s ."
The man’s voice sounded again, and Chu Yin abruptly opened her eyes.
Recognizing the person, she jumped off the bed, ignoring her leg injury.
Across the bed, she stared wide-eyed at the intruder.
"Is it you? What are you doing here?"
"Ah Yin, I missed you. I heard you got hurt, and I’m worried about you."
"You really have a big heart, worrying about my sister and ," Chu Yin said disdainfully, "I don’t need it. Please leave imdiately."
Despite her words, the man ignored her, swiftly stepping in front of Chu Yin on the other side.
He cornered Chu Yin at the headboard and grabbed her shoulder.
"Ah Yin, I know you’re mad at , but your sister got injured and lost her future because of you. I’m just taking care of her for you, I’m doing it for you."
"Ah Yin, you’re still in my heart. I can’t forget you. Let’s be like we used to be, okay?"
Hearing this, Chu Yin was dumbfounded.
This man in front of her was her ex-boyfriend, her sister’s current boyfriend.
The story was so lodramatic that every ti she recalled it, it felt like reliving a stain on her life.
Four years of university, two years of dating.
Just a al at her ho, and within a month, her sister beckoned, and they ended up in bed together.
Her boyfriend beca her brother-in-law.
Now the brother-in-law claims he can’t forget her.
Chu Yin’s temple veins throbbed.
But she was injured and was no match for the man.
She could only take a deep breath, maneuvering while looking for an opportunity.
"You want things to be like before? What about my sister?"
The man looked at her with feigned affection, shalessly saying, "Just don’t tell her. Lately, she’s been getting more temperantal seeing you gain attention."
"..."
A naless rage flared in Chu Yin’s heart.
What did these people take her for?
Seeing Chu Yin not resisting, the man leaned in to kiss her.
Angrily, Chu Yin raised her hand and slapped him hard.
"Get lost! We broke up long ago!"
The man’s head turned, anger flaring as he grabbed her arms and shook them.
"Don’t be so ungrateful, alright? Don’t think I don’t know; you beca famous because you agreed to be President Bai’s lover."
"What harm is there in keeping company before the old man?"
"The reason I’m with your sister is because you wouldn’t give in!"
Chu Yin laughed out of rage at his shalessness.
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell my sister and parents?"
"Even if you say it, they won’t believe you. They’ll just think you’re cheap and trying to hang onto ! Didn’t you chase around back then? You can do it now, too."
After speaking, he gave Chu Yin no chance to resist, directly throwing her onto the bed.
Chu Yin was about to scream but was imdiately silenced.
All the self-defense skills she learned required her feet, yet now her foot was injured as well.
"Mmph mmph..."
Her loose hospital gown offered little protection.
With a slight effort, he had already torn it, and just as he was about to press down.
Suddenly, he let out a muffled grunt, hesitating before falling toward Chu Yin.
Before he could touch her, soone behind him grabbed his neck and tossed him onto the floor.
Chu Yin looked at the newcor in panic.
Sang Li.
He looked her over from above, then turned and tossed his coat at her.
"Put it on."
"Okay."
Chu Yin wrapped herself in his coat.
The soft cashre coat had a bit of coldness, but quickly ward and reassured her upon touch.
She inhaled its scent, clutching the coat tightly.
Sang Li signaled the bodyguards at the door to co in and take the man out.
Finally, he glanced at the man on the floor.
"Your taste has always been this poor."
