"Chu Heng, I heard that Jinxiu lives next door. As her godfather, even if she is disobedient and has offended you, you should still go and see her."

"Why should I go see him? I've severed ties with him. He's no longer the young master of the Bai family. Whether he lives or dies, I won't care anymore."

Bai Chuheng's tone was so cold and chilling that it sent shivers down one's spine.

Liu Junyao lowered her head, a sinister smile curling at the corner of her lips.

Bai Chuheng stayed by Liu Junyao's side all night, and left in the early morning under the pretext that there were still things to do at the military base.

As he passed by that ward, he couldn't help but turn his head to look. Through the small glass window in the door, he saw Shang Linjun gently kissing the person sleeping on the bed.

Jealousy nearly consumed his reason, and if his adjutant hadn't reminded him, Bai Chuheng probably would have already rushed in and dragged that kid Shang Linjun away.

All day long, Bai Chuheng was absent-minded, his mind filled with the scene from that morning.

Taking advantage of the quiet of the night, Bai Chuheng sneaked into the dark hospital room.

Shen Ye was buttoning his shirt, but before he could finish, a figure pinned him down.

Just as he was about to cry out in surprise, his mouth was covered. By the moonlight, Shen Ye could see who it was.

"Bai Jinxiu, how shameless of you! You slept with your own godfather, and now you're sleeping with someone else. Aren't you disgusting?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the messy hospital bed, and Bai Chuheng's eyes suddenly darkened. This person who had once displayed seductive charm beneath him had also entangled Shang Linjun in the same way last night.

"You really are shameless. How could I, Bai Chuheng, have ever fallen for you?"

Shen Ye shook his head; he hadn't done anything with Shang Linjun.

"No? Then what's that on your neck? Don't tell me you fell and hurt yourself!"

He ripped off his pants and thrust in hard, causing Shen Ye to let out a painful howl.

"I haven't done this with anyone else but you," he explained softly. "Please, get out of here. This is a hospital."

The mark on her neck was from that night when Bai Chuheng got drunk and acted recklessly. Shen Ye didn't know why it hadn't faded yet.

Bai Chuheng didn't believe a word of it and fiercely criticized him, saying, "So what if it's a hospital? It's not like I haven't worked in a hospital before."

He gripped Bai Chuheng's back tightly, the pain was excruciating, and his legs started to ache again from the violent movements.

"My leg hurts..." The leg in the cast was dangling, and although it hadn't moved much, it started hurting again because of the shaking.

At this moment, Bai Chuheng no longer believed anything Shen Ye said. It wasn't until dawn that he finally released the person who was already in excruciating pain.

"Bai Jinxiu, I regret meeting you, I regret bringing you home, I regret raising you."

Shen Ye lay on the bed, breathing heavily. Regret? What did he have to regret? He had repaid ten years of kindness in raising him with his body, hadn't he?

Bai Chuheng pulled up his pants and turned around. Shen Ye suddenly asked in a low voice, "Bai Chuheng, have you ever loved Bai Jinxiu? In your heart, what do you really see him as? A tool for venting your frustrations? Or someone you genuinely want to spend the rest of your life with?"

Bai Chuheng glanced sideways at the dying man and said coldly, "You are not worthy to spend the rest of your life with him."

Shen Ye lay motionless on the bed, as if his soul had been emptied out.

He remained motionless and dazed until dawn!

The ward door opened, and someone came in to help him put on his clothes, saying, "You'll catch a cold."

He looked up at Shang Linjun and asked, "Are all people like him heartless?"

Shang Linjun remained silent. "Perhaps."

Shen Ye smiled and said, "Love is such a luxury."
