Chapter 48 xc, sunshine

The assistant immediately said, "This is a case that the Second Wife was involved in investigating. A suspect, seeking revenge, had a lot of evidence in his possession that hindered his plans. So he maliciously harmed the forensic doctor and chemist involved in the investigation, namely the Second Wife."

He paused for a few seconds, "If the Second Young Master hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid the Second Madam... would have fallen off the rooftop long ago."

Shen Yankai’s expression was extremely ugly.

He had previously investigated Xu Jialan's information and knew that her laboratory was cooperating with the police and would help them test the environmental evidence at the scene and provide evidence for the investigation.

I just didn't expect it to be so dangerous.

Thinking of Shen Xichuan’s expression just now, he pinched his eyebrows and said, “You arrange some bodyguards to protect the safety of the second wife in secret. You don’t need to report your whereabouts, just protect her, that’s all.”

This is the apple of his brother's eye, he must protect her well.

The assistant nodded, "Yes, but what if the Second Young Master finds out..."

Shen Yankai was silent for a few seconds, “As long as they don’t interfere with my brother-in-law’s whereabouts and life, he won’t stop them.”

Shen Xichuan's job is also special, and it is impossible for him to be with Xu Jialan at all times.

This time it was a coincidence, I happened to be next to her.

What about next time?

Shen Xichuan had a mission, but something happened to Xu Jialan. If there was no one guarding her...

Shen Yankai didn’t dare to imagine what Shen Xichuan’s reaction would be.

He sighed and waved his hand, "Let someone arrange it. I'll go over and see him."

"Yes, President."

…

In the ward.

Xu Jialan lay on the hospital bed with a pale face.

A white gauze was placed on her neck, the dust on her face was wiped clean, and she changed into a clean hospital gown.

Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes and landed on her left hand.

On their ring fingers they wore their wedding rings.

He reached out and held her fingertips.

A little cold.

There were also many scratches on the back of her fair hand, and there were bruises on her wrist where he had grabbed her.

Shen Xichuan subconsciously covered her hand.

The scene just now appeared in his mind again.

This seemed to be the first time he felt so panicked and frightened.

He had never been so afraid of losing someone.

Shen Xichuan held Xu Jialan’s hand tightly.

He looked at her pale face, his eyes filled with incomprehensible emotions.

Shen Xichuan suddenly thought of something.

He lowered his head and looked at the bag in his hand.

I remembered the word "gift" that Xu Jialan said before he fainted.

He was silent for a few seconds, his eyes dark, and no one knew what he was thinking.

He carefully let go of Xu Jialan's hand.

Then he opened the bag and found a rectangular dark blue velvet box inside.

He took out the box and opened it slowly.

The true face of the gift was revealed.

There was a hint of surprise and astonishment in Shen Xichuan’s eyes.

It’s actually a pen?

He took out the pen carefully.

The pen body is black, with a small diamond inlaid on the top of the pen cap, and words are engraved on the surface of the pen clip.

Shen Xichuan turned his pen and looked down.

It's a string of letters.

xc, sunshine.

"Sunshine?" Shen Xichuan murmured in a low voice.

He gently stroked the letters with his thumb, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He looked at Xu Jialan on the bed and asked softly, "Why sunshine?"

Xu Jialan closed his eyes tightly and breathed slowly.

No answer to his question.

Shen Xichuan didn’t care either, put the pen back into the box, and then carefully placed it on the bedside table.

Shen Yankai just arrived outside the ward.

He glanced at Xu Jialan on the bed, then looked at Shen Xichuan, “Xiaochuan.”

Shen Xichuan glanced at him, stood up, tucked the quilt for Xu Jialan, paused, and said in a low voice, "I'll go out for a while, I'll be at the door."

Don't be afraid, Xu Jialan.

He will always be there.

Shen Xichuan looked at her deeply before walking out of the ward and carefully closing the door.

Outside the ward.

The two brothers stood face to face.

Shen Yankai looked at Shen Xichuan, who was still in a mess, and frowned, "Go back and take a shower before coming over. I'll have someone watch over me here."

Shen Xichuan refused directly, “No need.”

Shen Yankai didn't expect that he would refuse so bluntly, and choked.

He had no choice but to compromise, "Then I'll have someone bring your change of clothes, and you can go to the bathroom in the ward to get rid of it."

Shen Xichuan's brows were slightly knitted.

"Don't forget, my sister-in-law is a laboratory technician. People who work in the laboratory must have mysophobia. If she wakes up and sees you like this..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Xichuan interrupted directly, “Ask your assistant to bring my clothes.”

Shen Yankai: “…”

He tutted his words, not knowing whether it was because he knew Shen Xichuan’s weakness or because of something else.

"By the way, this matter has become quite a big deal. I've tried my best to suppress the news, but, as you know, my parents have quite a few connections. The scene of you walking out of the mall holding someone was seen by quite a few people."

Even though Shen Xichuan is not in the Shen Group now, many people are still paying attention to his situation.

Over the past few years, no one of the opposite sex has ever come close to Shen Xichuan.

Now he suddenly rushed into the ambulance holding a woman in his arms, looking panicked.

How can I not be curious?

If Shen Yankai hadn’t interfered, I’m afraid that Madam Shen would have received the photo long ago.

Now it’s time to come to the hospital to find Shen Xichuan and ask him for an explanation.

When Shen Xichuan heard this, he felt a slight headache.

He really didn’t want Madam Shen to bother Xu Jialan so soon.

"Brother, is there any other way to keep it from them?"

Chen Yankai tutted again, with an expression that said, "What are you imagining?" "No."

Shen Xichuan: “…”

He pinched his brows and said, "Try your best. You know how annoying Mom is. Lanlan needs to rest."

Shen Yankai looked at him helplessly, "That's your mother, what do you mean by annoying? Is caring about you annoying?"

Shen Xichuan looked at him expressionlessly.

An expression that said, "Say this again with your conscience."

Shen Yankai coughed lightly, "Alright, brother knows, I'll try my best to help you delay it, but it won't last long. If mom finds out in advance, there's nothing I can do."

Shen Xichuan waved his hand, “I know.”

He turned around and was about to go back to the ward when he suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, remember to send the clothes over."

The corner of Shen Yankai's mouth twitched slightly, "I know."

Shen Xichuan hummed, “Thank you.”

After saying that, he went into the ward.

Shen Yankai stood there, watched for a while, and then left.
