"Well, go ahead."
"Xiao Zhao said you have a friend you've known for a long time, and you call him teacher. I want to know who this person is."
Recently, Shang Jingchi has been focusing on checking everyone around Wen Ran, after all, people's hearts are hidden.
No matter how close his relationship with Wen Ran was, Shang Jingchi never let his guard down.
Wen Ran's eyes widened as she looked at Shang Jingchi in surprise. She knew as soon as she heard it that Shang Jingchi was going to ask about Shi Yang.
Thinking of Shi Yang helping him escape by jumping into the sea, Wen Ran could only say, "He's my teacher. You don't suspect him of being the murderer, do you? Don't worry, it's not him."
"Why are you so sure?"
Wen Ran smiled faintly, "I knew him long before I knew you. He helped me a lot and is a very kind and considerate person.
And he never asked for anything in return. I always felt like I owed him something."
Shang Jingchi's face was calm, but his hands beside his legs were clenched into fists.
For some reason, when he heard Wen Ran praising other men, he felt uncomfortable all over, as if something was pressing on his heart and couldn't get out.
He suppressed his displeasure and insisted, "Okay, I don't doubt him. First, tell me who that person is. I want to know."
Wen Ran pursed her lips and said nothing.
If she told Shang Jingchi, Shang Jingchi would definitely investigate, and then her original purpose of deliberately approaching Shang Jingchi would be exposed.
After jumping into the sea, in order to avoid being discovered by Shang Jingchi, she received treatment in Shi Yang's hospital and hid in Shi Yang's family villa.
Given Shang Jingchi's personality, he will definitely not let Shi Yang go easily after finding out all this.
Shang Jingchi's expression was a little ugly, "Of course, why don't you want to tell me?"
"You don't know him, so there's no point in telling you." Wen Ran said calmly.
"I just want to know who this person is? Why are you so protective of him? What is your relationship with him?"
Shang Jingchi grabbed Wen Ran's shoulders with an urgent tone, but immediately let go when he realized his own loss of composure.
After a few seconds, he said, "I'm sorry."
Shang Jingchi lowered his head and turned to leave.
Looking at his lonely back, Wen Ran felt a bitter feeling in his heart.
She knew that Shang Jingchi was angry, or maybe he had misunderstood something.
But Shi Yang had helped her, and she really couldn't say it.
"I'm sorry." Wen Ran sighed and closed his eyes.
Shang Jingchi walked out of the ward and went to the end of the corridor, which was the hospital's smoking area.
He stood by the window, took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket, took out a cigarette from it, lit it and put it in his mouth.
He didn't like smoking before. Ever since Wen Ran jumped into the sea, he wanted to follow Wen Ran many times, but he knew that he had the responsibility of the Shang Group and couldn't just leave.
There was no one around to help him relieve his emotions, and gradually, he developed the habit of smoking.
Whenever he is in a bad mood, he will take out a cigarette and smoke it.
Shang Jingchi looked out the window. The view here was wide and the location was high. He could see most of the capital city at a glance.
Even the towering Shang Group in the distance can be seen.
That was the place where he had worked for nearly ten years and it held too many of his memories.
Shang Jingchi took one puff after another, his thoughts gradually drifting away.
"Jingchi..."
Shang Jingchi vaguely heard Wen Ran's voice and his heart skipped a beat.
He shook his head helplessly, thinking that he was really crazy and was still hallucinating at this time.
"Jingchi, you...smoking is bad for your health."
This time, Shang Jingchi heard it clearly. He turned around quickly, but unexpectedly, Wen Ran was standing two meters behind him.
She was wearing a hospital gown. Because she had been trying to lose weight recently, she looked just like before, thin and small.
It makes people want to hold it in their arms and protect it.
"What are you doing out here?" As he spoke, Shang Jingchi had already put out the cigarette between his fingers and thrown it into the cigarette butt trash can beside him.
He strode over, picked up Wen Ran in a princess hug, and walked towards the ward.
There is no expression on his face, and it is impossible to tell whether he is happy or angry.
Wen Ran hugged Shang Jingchi's neck and said, "Are you angry with me? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you."
Wen Ran felt more and more uncomfortable in the ward. After putting herself in Shang Jingchi's shoes, she felt it necessary to come out and explain things to him.
After all, seeing Shang Jingchi unhappy, she seemed even more unhappy.
Shang Jingchi sighed secretly and spoke after a long while.
"You don't have to say sorry to me. What I did wasn't good enough for you to trust me."
After returning to the ward, Shang Jingchi placed Wen Ran on the bed and began to check her wounds.
Fortunately, the wound is not serious.
"I..." The more Shang Jingchi said this, the more Wen Ran felt that she owed him. After thinking for a moment, she said, "I promise you, if anything happens in the future, or if I meet someone, I will tell you the first time, okay?"
When Shang Jingchi heard this, the dark clouds in his heart instantly dissipated, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
He rubbed Wen Ran's head and said, "You must keep your promise."
"Of course."
Shang Jingchi's eyes were filled with satisfaction. He looked at Wen Ran for a few seconds and asked softly, "Ran Ran, are we considered boyfriend and girlfriend now?"
Wen Ran avoided Shang Jingchi's gaze and looked elsewhere, pretending to be casual and replied, "I guess so!"
"Really, Ranran? That's great!" Shang Jingchi grabbed Wen Ran's shoulders, his fingertips trembling with excitement.
Later, he was so happy that he walked back and forth in the ward despite his 1.85-meter tall figure.
Wen Ran held his forehead with his hand and smiled faintly. He looked at Shang Jingchi helplessly and asked, "Are you really that excited? If Xu Yuan saw you like this, he would probably be scared to death."
