A familiar female voice came from the side.
Li Tangyan turned her head slightly and met Cen Ruan's gaze: "Awake?"
Meeting Li Tangyan's scrutinizing gaze, Cen Ruan raised an eyebrow, then got up and walked to the bedside.
As he tucked the blanket in, as if guessing what she wanted to ask, he said, "Stop looking. If I hadn't happened to run into you, do you think you would have survived long enough for someone to come and rescue you?"
"..."
"Oh, by the way. This thing is yours, isn't it, lithromantic?"
In the instant she bent down, Cen Ruan placed the report she had picked up earlier in front of Li Tangyan.
She didn't directly state the words above, but instead parted her red lips and uttered another word.
With a slight smile, she looked at Li Tangyan's pale face.
His smile deepened: "That's quite novel. Do you think Wen Zhaonian would feel like he'd been tricked and played if he found out?"
Cen Ruan's teasing gaze made people feel uncomfortable.
Li Tangyan immediately frowned.
He then spoke, his voice still a little hoarse from not speaking for a long time: "Why don't you go ask and find out?"
Cen Ruan was surprised by her words, and the smile on her face froze for a moment.
Then he clicked his tongue and stood up straight.
As she left, she slightly pursed her red lips: "Boring."
*
Not long after Cen Ruan left, the door to the ward was opened again.
Wen Zhaonian was carrying some food in his hand, and his dark eyes flickered for a moment after he saw that she had woken up.
"woke up?"
Wen Zhaonian put the things in his hand aside, and before his gaze could fall on the sheets by the bed, he saw a hint of nervousness flash across the man's face.
The next second, he had already reached out and hidden the sheets under the covers.
She nodded, her gaze shifting slightly as she met his.
After putting the form away, Li Tangyan realized that her reaction had been a bit too obvious.
Just when everyone thought Wen Zhaonian would delve deeper into the matter, he abruptly withdrew his gaze.
As he pulled up a chair and sat down, he lowered his eyes and focused his gaze on the contents of the bag.
He took out the porridge from inside, his expression focused as if he hadn't noticed anything unusual just now.
The porridge that Wen Zhaonian brought, I don't know where he bought it from, quickly released a fragrant aroma when it was served.
He scooped the soup into the bowl a few times with a spoon, and only after the steam had dissipated a bit did he scoop the soup and bring it to her lips.
The sudden closeness made Li Tangyan instinctively back away, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face when she realized what had happened.
"I'll do it myself."
As she spoke, she reached out to take the spoon from Wen Zhaonian's hand.
However, the man lifted his eyelids slightly, his eyes clear and sharp: "Behave yourself."
His voice was calm, carrying an undeniable sense of pressure.
Upon hearing this, Li Tangyan did not refuse again.
Her outstretched hand rested lightly on the blanket, and she opened her lips in response to the other person's movement.
As they spoke, their eyes, which had only recently woken up, were still a little wet.
Where is Lü Hua'er?
"He's already been taken to the police station."
Upon hearing this, Li Tangyan simply responded with an "oh".
"and you..."
Before Li Tangyan could finish speaking, the person deliberately fed her another spoonful.
Watching her cheeks puff out slightly with each chew, he said with a righteous air, "One should not speak while eating or sleeping."
"..."
You don't have to treat yourself like a pig.
Did I step on your fox tail?
*
Li Tangyan's head injury wasn't too serious, so she was discharged from the hospital after only a few days.
On the day I returned to the newspaper office, a cold front arrived, and the temperature in Z city dropped significantly.
Walking on the street, even a gust of cold wind can make you shiver.
When they arrived at the newspaper office, Li Tangyan was about to turn on her computer when Ge Qingqing nudged her.
She turned her head and saw Ge Qingqing pointing outside, as if she had something to say.
"What's wrong?"
After following Ge Qingqing out, Li Tangyan realized that her expression wasn't too good.
Ge Qingqing hesitated for a moment before slowly uttering what she was about to say.
Upon hearing this, Li Tangyan's expression also froze.
"...So you were the one who released all those videos before, including the one about Hao Fu's wife having a miscarriage?"
"When I told his wife, I really didn't expect her to have a miscarriage."
"For your own selfish reasons, you even got yourself kidnapped by Lü Hua'er a few days ago."
"I've already told Editor Xiao that I'm resigning. I feel really bad about it, so I thought I'd apologize to you one last time."
"I'm sorry for dragging you into this."
"..."
When Li Tangyan came out after talking to Ge Qingqing, she felt that her mind was in a mess.
She had indeed been curious about who was behind these things.
After all, in a sense, this approach is using oneself as a shield to achieve one's own goals.
She guessed many people, but she never expected that this person would be Ge Qingqing.
However, before she could sort out her chaotic thoughts, Xiao Yi called her to her office again.
As soon as Li Tangyan came in, she didn't bother with beating around the bush and directly showed her the new notice.
"The time for going to headquarters has been set. I will have people follow up on your tasks during this period. Once the New Year is over, you can go directly to S City to report for duty."
She held the notice tightly in her palm. Listening to Xiao Yi's words, Li Tangyan did not feel the joy she had expected.
