In the restaurant, Bai Weiwei sat opposite Su Ning, chattering away as if she had a lot to say to Su Ning.

Su Ning occasionally chimed in with a word or two, but Bai Weiwei did most of the talking while Su Ning listened.

"Ning'er, do you know that this time when I went to Beijing with my mother, I ran into a nasty person who was even more annoying than your family's scoundrel?"

"That guy is so arrogant, acting like he owns the place. Compared to him, I think that scoundrel is much more pleasing to the eye."

Su Ning noticed that Bai Weiwei seemed to have picked up on something else, and she teased her with a smile.

"Hmm... I have a feeling that someone's spring is coming!"

Bai Weiwei slammed her chopsticks on the table. "Fine! You brat, how dare you laugh at me!"

The meal ended amidst the two's playful banter. As they left the restaurant, Bai Weiwei put her arm around Su Ning's shoulder and launched into a carefree rant.

"Ning'er, how far have things progressed between you and that scoundrel? Have you considered meeting his parents?"

Su Ning didn't know how far she and He Ci could go, but she cherished every day they spent together.

“Ci Ge’s parents probably won’t approve of us being together, but it doesn’t matter, as long as I have Ci Ge, that’s enough.”

Su Ning seemed to be speaking to Bai Weiwei, but also to herself. She really liked He Ci, but she didn't know if she could accept it when the day came for them to break up.

"Ning'er, are you stupid? Do you really want to follow him like this without any clear understanding? A woman's best years are only a few. He saved you, but it's not like you only have the option of repaying him with your body."

Su Ning's smile was a little bitter. He Ci was never short of women around him. She didn't know when He Ci would get tired of her. She could only blame herself for being too greedy and losing herself in He Ci's gentleness.

“Weiwei, you don’t understand. Cige is my light, my salvation. Maybe at first I wanted to repay him, but now… I can’t tell whether I want to repay him or I’m just longing for his embrace.”

It is said that it is better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. When Bai Weiwei saw Su Ning's appearance, she knew that it would be superfluous to say anything more. She could only pray that He Ci could continue to take care of Su Ning like this.

“Ning’er, you are a good girl. He Ci is lucky to have met you. If he ever betrays you, remember to call me and I will beat him up for you.”

Before they knew it, the two had arrived at the flower shop. Bai Weiwei did not go in with them. After saying goodbye, they parted ways at the entrance.

In the hospital, He Zhan looked at the person lying on the sofa, his eyes and nose looking completely different.

"Ha, you've really outmaneuvered me, Young Master He."

He Ci lay on the sofa, carelessly playing with the lighter in his hand.

"Just say what you want to say, stop being sarcastic. I'll let you off the hook because you're a patient."

Sitting next to her, Zhu Xia slapped him across the face. This son was good in every way, except for his rebellious nature.

"You brat, how dare you talk to your dad like that? Do you want to drive him to his death?"

"Fine, fine, I can't argue with you two. I earned the money to buy the villa myself, not a single penny from you. If I don't pamper my woman, am I supposed to let someone else do it?"

He Zhan was about to lose his temper again. This morning someone told him that He Ci had actually bribed a prostitute and was very generous in order to help that vixen's friend.

Just think about his son, who always argues with everyone and everything and never respects his father, yet he's willing to stoop so low for that little vixen. It's so upsetting to think about.

"Break up with that vixen immediately. She can't be your wife. Even if I don't take action, those three families won't let her go."

The nonchalant look on He Ci's face vanished instantly. He pulled his long legs back from the coffee table, and his words were chilling.

"Try touching my woman if you dare. It's my business who I marry. If you want to form an alliance with those three families, then marry her yourself."

The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became tense, and He Ci stopped at the door.

"Also, tell those three families not to try to cause trouble for Su Ning, or you know my temper."

After He Ci finished speaking, he ignored He Zhan, who was throwing a tantrum behind him. Anyone who dared to touch his little darling would make their whole family unhappy, not even his own father.
