Chapter 384 You two tricked me into a mess
He Tingchen was just about to ask about Cheng Yian's injuries when Cheng Yian walked straight past her and towards Lin Rushuang.
He Tingchen subconsciously reached out to grab Cheng Yian's wrist, his brows furrowed.
"what you do?"
Cheng Yian saw the tension and worry on He Tingchen's face, which was something she had never seen in all the years she had been with him.
Suddenly, she seemed to understand how important Lin Rushuang was in He Tingchen's eyes.
A hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of her lips.
"He Tingchen, don't worry. I'm not going to find Lin Rushuang to accuse her. There's no need for you to be so nervous."
Lin Rushuang also realized that He Tingchen was a little too nervous, and she said to He Tingchen.
"Mr. Cheng just wants to talk to me. You and A Yao should go out and have a cigarette."
He Tingchen stared at Lin Rushuang, then nodded, and he and A Yao walked out of the ward.
In the ward, only Cheng Yian and Lin Rushuang were left.
Lin Rushuang has always been calm.
"Are you okay?"
Cheng Yian shook his head: "It's just a minor scratch, no problem."
"That's good, otherwise I would have wasted so much effort."
Lin Rushang let out a long sigh.
Cheng Yian kept looking at her, observing every expression on her face, not missing even the smallest detail.
"Thank you, Miss Lin. I'm really grateful to you this time. I can't even imagine what would have happened to me tonight without you."
When this was mentioned, Cheng Yian choked up again.
The scenes tonight were nothing short of devastating to her.
Lin Rushang saw Cheng Yian's shoulders begin to tremble and tears welled up in his eyes. Lin Rushang could tell at a glance that what happened today was very serious for Cheng Yian.
She cautiously reached out to Cheng Yian and asked her.
"Mr. Cheng, can I ask you a more private question?"
Cheng Yian raised his head and took a deep breath.
"Ask."
"Have you ever experienced something similar before? I'm not referring to actual violations, such as molestation or intimidation."
When Cheng Yian heard this, he fell silent.
Looking at her reaction, Lin Rushang could almost guess that Cheng Yian must have encountered a similar problem before.
She didn't ask in a hurry, but just patted her shoulder silently, which was also a comfort.
After a moment, Cheng Yian slowly spoke.
"Actually, when I was little, my parents sent me to live with my uncle. But I was too young to understand these things, so for a long time, my uncle molested me."
"Luckily, I heard about this from a neighbor's friend, and that's when I learned it was called molestation. I later told my parents about it, and luckily, they believed me and took me away quickly."
"Fortunately, my uncle was quite timid at the time and didn't do anything substantial to me. That's probably the only thing I can be thankful for."
Lin Rushuang didn't want to provoke Cheng Yian, she was just standing from the perspective of fairness and justice.
"But your uncle's behavior is already excessive, even disgusting, worse than an animal."
Cheng Yian sobbed, tears falling to the ground like beads from a broken string.
"I know, but I can only think positively. Honestly, I've never been in a relationship since I became an adult, and the only person I've ever liked is probably Tingchen."
"He is the only one who makes me feel safe and whom I am willing to entrust my life to."
Lin Rushang narrowed her eyes when she heard this.
Cheng Yian raised his head and took a long breath.
"But now I don't think so, because I see his love for you. You know a person, when he looks at you, his heart and eyes are filled with you."
She couldn't help but add one more sentence at the end.
"I've never seen him like this before. When we worked together before, many people pursued him, but he just didn't like anyone."
"I later asked him why he didn't like any of the many talented and beautiful girls pursuing him. Did you know? We even suspected he had a problem with his sexual orientation."
"The people he usually comes into contact with most at work are boys."
When Lin Rushang heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She shook her head at Cheng Yian: "You can't be blamed for this. I was like this before. He was surrounded by a lot of women, but he didn't like any of them. It's hard not to be suspicious."
There are so many people in same-sex relationships nowadays.
Cheng Yian's expression suddenly became serious.
"Someone asked him out of curiosity, but do you know what he said? He said he had someone he liked, a girl he had a crush on for a long time."
"He emphasized these two words for a long time. The female colleagues who liked him at the time never pursued him again. I guess everyone knows that with someone like him, it's unlikely he would like someone else."
Lin Rushuang always felt confused.
"You mean... He Tingchen has always liked that girl since then."
"Well, it's been many years, even earlier than we know. I don't know who it was, but based on my observations over the past few days, I think it's most likely you."
When Lin Rushang heard this, the expression on her face changed slightly.
"I?"
Cheng Yian's negative emotions had almost subsided by now, and she began to analyze the situation rationally and seriously with Lin Rushang.
"You can think about Tingchen's family background yourself. You should know it better than I do. Also, didn't you say before that Tingchen knew your mother and had a connection with her?"
"That is to say, Tingchen came into contact with you very early, so I think it is most likely you."
Although Lin Rushuang knew that He Tingchen did have feelings for her, and he had also shown that he was serious about her, when she really thought about it, she still felt that it was a bit too outrageous.
He Tingchen has a crush on her?
Lin Rushuang shook her head. It was obvious that she couldn't accept such a possibility. It was too exaggerated and made her feel a little dreamy.
"Mr. Cheng, you really sound like you're kidding me. Maybe this is some little girl next door that He Tingchen has known since childhood. All of these are possible."
Cheng Yian has now let go of her obsession with He Tingchen, and she no longer wants to pursue the question of who He Tingchen likes.
"Whatever. It doesn't matter to me who he likes."
Lin Rushuang did not continue discussing this matter, but turned the topic directly to other issues.
"Mr. Cheng, I know this incident may make you unhappy. This is our problem, but I still want to fight for cooperation."
Cheng Yian couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.
"You two have coaxed me around like crazy, and now you want me to sign a contract with you. Do you think that's appropriate?"
