Chapter 121 Disgust
She also helped Chen Yan complete the wheelchair rental procedures at the hospital and found a reliable caregiver to take care of her daily life.
At night, the room was silent, with only the occasional sound of the night wind coming from outside the window. Chen Yan lay on the bed, drowsy.
Her head felt groggy and she felt like she was floating on the water. Just as she was about to fall into a deep sleep, she suddenly felt her feet move.
The feeling at that moment was extremely clear and abrupt, causing her heart to tighten suddenly.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a blurry black shadow standing beside her bed.
At that moment, she was so frightened that her heart almost skipped a beat, and her whole body seemed to be instantly enveloped by fear.
"ah--!"
She couldn't help but scream in fear, and instinctively tried to sit up, kicking her legs forward subconsciously.
The kick was so strong that it hit the wound, and she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her foot.
She couldn't help but gasp in pain.
At this moment, the figure beside the bed quickly leaned over, covered her mouth with one hand, and signaled her not to make a sound.
At that moment, the hand was smooth, warm, delicate and soft, with the texture of a woman's skin.
Shen Yan's whole body was trembling slightly, and cold sweat instantly seeped out of her forehead. It was not just fear, but also pain. The piercing pain was almost unbearable for her.
"Where are you hurt?"
The other person was standing in the dim ward, his voice so soft as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone. He looked down at the person curled up on the hospital bed, his eyes revealing a hint of inquiry.
Chen Yan raised her head, her face pale. When she saw it was him, her emotions immediately flared up, and she cursed, "Third Master, you are trying to scare people to death! You're standing at the door in the dark, and anyone would be frightened by you."
In fact, just a few minutes ago, Zhu Zeyu was about to board the private plane parked at the airport.
The plane had already started warming up, and the propeller was roaring.
His destination is the remote and cold New Zealand, where an exciting skiing trip is waiting for him.
But before leaving, his subordinates suddenly brought him an unusual piece of news - saying that an acquaintance was admitted to the hospital, and the situation sounded quite wrong.
He has always been a person who acts casually but values friendship very much. He frowned when he heard about his friend's situation.
After thinking for a moment, he made a decision, temporarily changed his itinerary, had the plane return, and turned the car around and drove straight to an inconspicuous hospital in the direction of the city.
That friend's status was special; he should normally have sought medical treatment at a private medical center with comprehensive facilities and top-notch service, not in a small ward at an ordinary public hospital. Even more bizarre, this person, usually rational and decisive, had, as if lost in thought, chosen this ordinary hospital to complete his hospitalization procedures.
According to people familiar with the matter, this person has been having a tough time with his relationship recently. He was exhausted and hot-headed, so he chose an unusual way to relieve his distress.
So, with a bit of curiosity and a hint of concern, he hurried to visit, but unexpectedly, he ran into another unexpected person in this small ward - Chen Yan.
He originally just wanted to come in and take a look at his friend, but he didn't expect that the first scene that caught his eye was Chen Yan biting her lips, struggling in pain, hunched over and curled up on the bed, her eyebrows twisted into a ball, and she looked so fragile that it was pitiful.
He paused, then looked away and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, how did you fall?"
When Shen Yan came to her senses, she realized that the person in front of her was not a doctor or a nurse, but the "Third Master" whom she had not seen for many years.
Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the scene she had experienced not long ago emerged in her mind. Her hands couldn't help but clench the sheets, "Just now..."
She paused, her voice trembling slightly, "I just accidentally missed a step on the stairs, it's no big deal."
Zhu Zeyu stared at her trembling eyes quietly, sneered in his heart, and his tone became colder. "Don't worry, I'm not short of women to the extent of attacking an injured girl."
"After all, this kind of thing."
He continued ambiguously, his tone laced with a hint of sarcasm, "It's only interesting if both sides are interested."
"What things?"
She pretended to be dumb, but some unspeakable scenes had already emerged in her mind: the image of the two people entangled, the suppressed breathing, the lingering movements...
When these thoughts came to her mind, her heart trembled violently.
The expression on her face couldn't help but become complicated. She frowned and stared into Zhu Zeyu's eyes, "Third Master, please respect yourself! My leg is fine now."
But when Zhu Zeyu heard these words, they illogically aroused his disgust.
His expression was icy, and his tone became increasingly serious: "Tell me, how did you hurt your leg? Don't beat around the bush."
"fine."
She lowered her eyes, trying to hide the thoughts that had just come to her mind. "I was just walking carelessly and slipped and twisted it. It's really simple. Thank you—thank you for your concern."
As soon as she said this, she realized that her wording was a bit stiff, so she quickly added, trying to keep her tone calm to maintain her decency.
But to the other party, these seemed like hypocrisy.
Zhu Zeyu twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered: "I don't like to hear this kind of polite words."
"Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'll give you a few more wounds and make you stay in bed for a while longer."
The man threatened coldly, without a trace of warmth in his tone, his eyes fixed on her.
"I know what to do. I'll arrange for someone to take good care of you. I won't be vague about my responsibilities."
He spoke slowly, his voice low but with unquestionable power.
When he reached out to check her leg injury, she quickly retracted her foot and said hurriedly, "Don't touch it! Isn't it okay if I say so?!"
Zhu Zeyu withdrew his hand, his eyes extremely cold, and his thin lips slightly opened: "Speak."
She took a deep breath, suppressed the complex emotions in her heart, and began to tell the story, carefully recounting the various disputes between herself and Cheng Yingzi, as well as the process of being ambushed and pushed down the stairs that night, without missing any details.
After listening to her, his tone was filled with undisguised sarcasm, "Aren't you usually quite capable of holding your own outside? How come you've fallen into the hands of a woman now?"
"I really can't understand how you could have suffered at the hands of someone like that. This outcome makes me feel ashamed for you."
She did not lose to him, but was defeated by a man named Cheng Yingzi.
Shen Yan felt a little unhappy and couldn't help rolling her eyes, but she finally resisted the urge to choke back.
She knew very well that this guy's speaking style always carried an unbearable arrogance.
It's simply the style of a "flower on the high mountain"!
