So when he looked at the incomprehensible book again, he immediately understood it upon seeing the annotations.
So that's how this condition works.
Oh, so that's how it has to be done!
Even though Dr. Ouyang was much older than Zhou Yi, this time, Dr. Ouyang admired Zhou Yi to the point of prostration.
Dr. Ouyang and Zhou Yi hit it off immediately, and the two began discussing current medical advancements.
Just as the two were discussing their views on a certain disease, there was another knock on the door, followed by the voice of the bodyguard captain.
"Zhou Yi, Miss wants to see you."
When Dr. Ouyang saw Zhou Yi, a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes when he heard that Shen Bingyan wanted to see him.
Dr. Ouyang quickly stood up and tactfully said:
"Let's exchange phone numbers."
"We can continue this discussion when you have more time later."
After exchanging phone numbers, Zhou Yi followed the bodyguard captain to Shen Bingyan's room.
At this moment, only Shen Bingyan and Old Master Shen were in Shen Bingyan's room.
Upon seeing Zhou Yi, Shen Bingyan's lips naturally curved into a smile.
Turning his head to Grandpa Shen, he said:
"Grandpa, I want to speak with Zhou Yi alone."
Grandpa Shen looked at his granddaughter, seeing her calm expression, and then looked at Zhou Yi.
alone?
Do the two know each other?
That shouldn't be happening!
"good."
"Call me anytime if you need anything."
As Old Master Shen walked out, his gaze inadvertently swept over the bodyguard captain.
That one glance was enough to make the bodyguard captain tense up immediately.
The bodyguard captain stood guard at the door dutifully, while the two people inside the room watched silently for a few seconds.
"Zhou Yi, how have you been lately?"
I'm sorry to have worried you.
Shen Bingyan broke the silence first, thus bridging the invisible distance between the two.
Hearing Shen Bingyan's question, Zhou Yi walked over.
"I am fine."
“Your bodyguard has already told me about the things you did for me.”
"Bingyan, how could you be so foolish?"
“Your condition prevents you from engaging in strenuous activity, yet you’re willing to risk your life just for a USB drive.”
Shen Bingyan got out of bed and walked to the balcony outside.
The two sat facing each other on the balcony. Shen Bingyan pursed her lips, her face somewhat pale, and answered Zhou Yi's question very seriously.
"But that's evidence that you were rescued."
"I do all this willingly, and I don't expect anything in return from you."
"I just wanted to get you out of there; I didn't think about anything else at the time."
Seeing how much Shen Bingyan had done for him, Zhou Yi felt both moved and sorry for her.
The heart that had been terribly betrayed by Su Qingjiao and had lost all trust in people suddenly began to pound violently the moment it met Shen Bingyan's gaze.
"Thump thump".
The sound of my heart pounding was so loud it felt like it was about to jump out of my chest.
At first, Zhou Yi only had one thought about Shen Bingyan: to get close to her so that he could save his grandmother.
However, as the two got to know each other better, Zhou Yi found that his heart was gradually drawn to Shen Bingyan, and it wasn't just about winning her favor anymore!
As the two talked on the phone, the closer Zhou Yi got to understanding Shen Bingyan, the more attracted he became to her.
It wasn't until this moment, when their eyes met, that Zhou Yi suddenly realized that he genuinely felt a fondness and attraction towards Shen Bingyan!
Whether it was what she did for him or the soul connection he shared with Shen Bingyan, Zhou Yi was deeply moved by her.
Seeing that Zhou Yi didn't speak and just stared at her quietly, Shen Bingyan shyly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Zhou Yi, tell me what happens next."
Zhou Yi withdrew his gaze and told Shen Bingyan everything that had happened after she left, down to the smallest detail.
As for the Qi family's affairs, Zhou Yi did not hide them from Shen Bingyan.
"Bingyan, the reason I kept my identity a secret while I was in school, even when Su Qingjiao took my place, was that I didn't say a word."
"It's not because I love Su Qingjiao, but because I can't reveal my true identity."
“My mother was murdered when I was just born. The person who murdered her was very clever and deliberately staged it as a suicide.”
"Through my father's tireless efforts, we finally found evidence that my mother was murdered, but before he could find the killer, my father was also murdered."
"So my grandmother hid my identity from a young age. She was afraid that if the mastermind knew I was still alive, he would wipe out the Zhou family."
"........"
After listening to Zhou Yi's words, Shen Bingyan looked at Zhou Yi.
"Zhou Yi, I know why!"
"I originally wanted to tell you about this when I returned to Kyoto this time."
Suddenly, Zhou Yi's grip on the chair tightened abruptly, his knuckles bulging from the force. Just as Zhou Yi was tense, waiting for Shen Bingyan to reveal the truth.
"Knock knock".
"Miss, the old master sent some fruit and snacks through the servants."
The bodyguard captain forced himself to speak to the two people in the room.
He was forced into it!
Seeing that the two had been in the room for a long time, Old Master Shen began to have wild thoughts, fearing that his granddaughter would be taken advantage of. That's why he asked the maid to take advantage of the time when she came to deliver fruit to check what the two were doing.
The tense atmosphere was suddenly disrupted. Shen Bingyan took a deep breath and asked Zhou Yi for his opinion.
"This matter involves many people, and we may need the Shen family's help."
"I want to tell the truth in front of everyone in the Shen family. Are you willing?"
