Thinking of being left here alone, Qi Nuan felt a pang of sourness and tightness in his heart, accompanied by a surge of guilt.

She sat up from the bed, but couldn't find her slippers, so she just stood up barefoot.

The suite was very spacious and the floor was icy. The chill seeped down Qi Nuan's bare feet, and soon she felt cold all over.

It wasn't until she reached the bathroom outside and heard the sound of water running inside that she breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Nuan pushed the bathroom door.

The door was not closed tightly and she pushed it open. The wet and dry areas were separated and a familiar man's silhouette was reflected in the frosted shower room.

Relieved, Qi Nuan turned around, leaned against the wall and closed his eyes.

Soon, the sound of the bathroom door opening was heard from inside, and Lu Yin, wrapped in a bathrobe and still tying the belt, strode out.

Seeing that it was Qi Nuan at the door, he paused for a moment, then turned back to the bathroom. When he came out again, he had changed into a sports suit.

The two men didn't speak.

After a moment of silence, Qi Nuan couldn't help but break the silence: "I want to take a bath too."

After saying that, she walked towards the bathroom, but Lu Yin called her.

He picked up a pair of slippers and placed them in front of Qi Nuan: "The ground is cold."

After getting up, he took out a medical waterproof cover from the cabinet next to the bathroom mirror, pulled over Qi Nuan's hand where the infusion was going, and put the cover over her and tied it tightly.

"If you have an injury on your head, don't wash your hair for now."

Qi Nuan thought Lu Yin would help her like he did when she was sick before, but after leaving these words, he turned and walked out of the bathroom, considerately closing the door for her.

That’s right, if it were her, she would still be angry and probably wouldn’t even be able to do these things.

Qi Nuan was a little disappointed. The pain in her head and stomach had eased a lot, and with the soothing effect of the hot water, her brain, which had been in a state of confusion for a long time, finally started to function properly again.

She thought about the incident carefully, and some guesses formed in her mind.

Qi Nuan quickly washed her body, put on the new hospital gown in the closet, and walked out.

This time, all the lights in the house were turned on, with warm colors and very bright.

Lu Yin's hair was not blow-dried, and his naturally dried bangs hung down, covering some of his domineering and sharp features, making him look much younger.

Don't look at his eyes, just look at his casual and comfortable look, just like when Qi Nuan first met him.

Realizing that she had been staring for a little too long, Qi Nuan shifted her gaze and tried to find something comfortable to change into in the closet.

But besides pajamas, there was only Lu Yin's suit and two casual tops hanging in the closet.

Lu Yin stood up and stood behind Qi Nuan, took the smaller T-shirt from the hanger and handed it to her.

"Zhao Yu will bring your clothes over after daybreak. Just put this one on for now."

Qi Nuan changed her clothes, hesitated for a moment, and walked to the sofa opposite Lu Yin and sat down.

The look in Lu Yin's eyes when he looked at her clearly contained a lot of words, but he insisted on keeping his mouth shut and not saying a word.

"...How did I end up in the hospital?"

"You almost died."

Lu Yin's eyes were a little cold, in stark contrast to the warm light reflected from above his head.

The cool feeling is not Qi Nuan's illusion.

"It's not a world you can immerse yourself in, so you shouldn't try to enter it in the first place."

The logic was correct, but to Qi Nuan, it sounded like Lu Yin was blaming her for her selfish desires.

She brought this upon herself?!

"Do you know about the illegal tricks Gu Hui used to control the outside directors?"

Lu Yin just stared into Qi Nuan's eyes without answering.

Qi Nuan's heart sank, and she forced herself to suppress the churning in her stomach.

"The two young masters of the Lu family are involved. You have such wide connections and are so well-informed, so you must have known about it a long time ago, right?"

The dark eyes were still staring at her, and a hint of sneer suddenly appeared on Lu Yin's cold face.

"Are you now blaming me for not warning you earlier and putting all the blame on me for your mistake of underestimating the enemy?"

"I'm just asking you, do you know? Or don't you know?"

Lu Yin was silent for a moment, then asked, "What if I say I know?"

Qi Nuan clenched his hands tightly on his knees.

In the last chaos before she fell into a coma, she seemed to see two familiar faces from Zhao Yu Security Company among the group of people who broke in and beat Old Man Liu.

It seems that it was not her hallucination.

Zhao Yu's people were essentially driven by Lu Yin. In other words, Lu Yin had guessed what would happen to her from the beginning, but he didn't even give her a real warning in a symbolic sense.

"Yes, I underestimated the enemy."

She thought that in the Gu family's famous resort town, at least no one would do anything too bad to her, the new director who had just been publicly reported in the media.

During the time when she was expecting Lu Yin to rescue her, she thought that Lu Yin probably thought the same way, so it was difficult for her to predict that she would encounter great danger.

However, that was based on the premise that he knew nothing.

Qi Nuan's apology probably made Lu Yin think that she had finally recognized the reality of society and given in.

"Our contract is all based on your requirements. Does that mean you'll think the world will go your way and everything will go smoothly? In reality, what can you offer to pique their interest and negotiate terms with them?"

"Your health? Didn't you even go with me to get the marriage certificate for that? Maybe if I try harder to please you, those old men over fifty will be willing to stand by you."

Qi Nuan's tone was very bad, and Lu Yin frowned immediately.

"I've long warned you that those people are all the same. It was you who insisted on infiltrating them in exchange for management rights with me. Are you willing to use yourself as bait? For me? Or for your non-blood-related sister? Or perhaps for your unbridled lust for power?"
