Huo Zhiyan looked Ye Chen up and down, and seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, she stepped forward and asked, "Attorney Ye, won't you reconsider?"
"My affairs are none of your concern." Ye Chen glanced at him coldly. "I think Young Master Huo should take better care of his own affairs when he has time! Heh, you don't look too well. Is your health getting worse?"
"Who the hell are you talking about?!"
"A little restraint will do you good!" Ye Chen gave a complicated smile and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't let yourself become bald and suffer from kidney deficiency at such a young age. You'll really disgrace the Huo family!"
"you……"
Huo Zhiyan tried to make a move, but Ye Chen grabbed his wrist and flung him away, sending him flying eight feet away.
Although he was drunk, he still had a lot of energy.
Ye Chen smiled and strode towards the parking lot exit.
Huo Zhiyan knew that Huo Zhixing's friends were all quite capable, but she never expected that a mere lawyer would dare to oppose him!
Jiang Can dismissed all of his private bodyguards, and now he doesn't have a single bit of his own power!
Enraged, Huo Zhiyan took his anger out on the car next to him, kicking it hard.
The car immediately emitted a wailing alarm.
Huo Zhiyan wanted to leave, but it was too late. Several burly men walked out of the bar, all drunk, with fleshy faces and fierce eyes glaring at him.
"Who the hell kicked my car?!"
Huo Zhiyan was stunned, and before she could react, the leader grabbed her by the collar and lifted her up.
"What are you doing? Are you...are you blind? Don't you recognize me?"
The big man squinted and looked carefully for a while, then shook his head.
Where did this chick come from?
"you……"
"You little bastard, you dare kick my car? We'll see how the brothers deal with you!"
"I am Huo Zhiyan, the eldest son of the Huo family!"
Several burly men burst into laughter, "I'm still Huo Zhixing, you son of a bitch! Hahaha..."
"Come here and kowtow to my car!"
The entire parking lot was instantly filled with the muffled sounds of fighting and Huo Zhiyan's screams.
...
Yin Ruohong's allergy symptoms gradually subsided.
Although Yoon Moon-hee has been taking care of him these past few days, she hasn't said a single word to him.
Several times, Yin Ruohong tried to secretly hold her hand, but Yin Wenxi skillfully dodged him, never even making eye contact with him.
The man was anxious but at a loss. After racking his brains for a long time, he finally came up with a solution.
He had just finished his IV drip that day. Yin Wenxi was peeling an apple when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Yin Ruohong lying on the bed, his body stiff as if he were frozen.
Yin Wenxi went over and took a look; the man's face had turned purple from holding his breath!
She was startled, thinking it was another allergic reaction, but upon closer inspection, she realized something was wrong. Just as she was about to press the call button for the nurse, she pulled her hand back, steadied herself, and swiftly pulled two silver needles from Yin Ruohong's bag, inserting them into the veins on his arm…
"Aww!"
Caught off guard, Yin Ruohong cried out and almost jumped out of bed.
"No, no, no...you can't stab me here!" he screamed. "This...this will block my meridians!"
As he spoke, he went to remove the needle.
When she looked up, she was met with Yin Wenxi's cold smile.
"Ha, so it was all an act after all?"
Yin Ruohong then realized his carelessness, his hands trembling as he held the two silver needles. He looked at his wrist, found a safe spot to insert the needles, and while doing so, pretended to be dazed, muttering to himself, "Ouch, it really hurt just now. Actually, my allergy hasn't gotten better yet..."
"Stop acting!" Yin Wenxi was furious. "Yin Ruohong, do you think you're the only one who's knowledgeable in medicine? If you're going to lie, at least find someone with a limited IQ!"
She pointed at his arm, both amused and exasperated, "Look for yourself! The spot you stuck in is not the same acupoint I just used!"
“Wenxi…”
Yin Ruohong called her name weakly, then laughed foolishly.
She's still the same as when she was a child!
I remember when she was angry, she would prick him with a needle. Sometimes, if he talked to other women for a few extra words, he would inexplicably have several needle marks on his body, and half of his body would be numb.
He wondered how a girl of about ten years old could prick so accurately.
Thinking about it later, it makes sense. She was a legitimate princess of the Yin family, and her ancestors for generations had been royal physicians. Her medical talent was truly exceptional.
Unlike him, who relies on hard work and perseverance to achieve everything, taking things one step at a time without any shortcuts, he only knows how to persevere.
Just like that revenge incident back then, the moment Yoon Moon-hee broke ties with him, his heart was already riddled with holes, but he still stubbornly held on.
He's held on until now, but he can't hold on any longer.
"Wenxi, can you let me say a few words..."
"Don't say anything more." Yin Wenxi's voice trembled slightly. "After you've fully recovered and are discharged from the hospital, let's pretend we don't know each other."
"Wenxi!"
“Yin Ruohong,” she looked directly into his eyes, “don’t forget your promise!”
Yin Ruohong was stunned. If time could be reversed, he would want to go back and strangle the version of himself that made the promise.
What kind of lunatic is he? What kind of promises are he making? Never bothering you again, never seeing you again for the rest of our lives?
I must have had my brain damaged by someone stabbing me back then!
Yin Ruohong took a deep breath. He saw her turn her back, and her back showed signs of aging, no longer as slender and charming as she had been in her youth.
But to him, she was still the only one of her kind in the world.
