Chapter 222 Why is Zhizhi so fierce to me?
"Hmm." She responded softly, opened the door and went into her own home. After closing the door, she immediately peered through the peephole and waited for a while before she heard the door close.
She went inside, called the chief prosecutor on her own phone, and a few minutes later, she put the ledger into her older sister's black handbag. She had just walked to the elevator when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
She turned around in alarm, her brows furrowed, like a frightened bird... Why did he come out too?
"Didn't you just come back from outside? Where are you going again?" Shen Yan asked, one hand in his pocket, glancing at her.
Weiwei took a deep breath silently. "Going to...the hospital to remove the cast? Where are you going?"
"Going out to eat, are you going to the hospital alone? Where's your aunt?" he asked curiously.
"Uh... Mom's out shopping and hasn't come back yet. I'm not a child, why can't I go to the hospital by myself?" She tried to appear calm and continued to lie, but inside she was panicking, afraid he would suspect her.
Shen Yan didn't say anything more. After the elevator came up, she deliberately didn't get in: "You can leave. I don't want to be alone with you."
He pressed the open button. "We'll be spending a lot of time together from now on, so you should get used to it. Come in quickly."
Seeing that he was standing inside waiting and wouldn't leave, Nan Weiwei had no choice but to get into the elevator. After going downstairs, she was about to leave the complex to take a taxi when the man suddenly pulled up beside her in his car.
"Get in the car, I'll take you to the hospital."
“No need, I’ll take a taxi myself.” She said, and started walking forward. Chen Yan got out of the car, pulled her back, opened the passenger door, and pushed her inside.
“We’ll be family from now on, you don’t need to be so formal with me.”
Nan Wei looked at him with a mixture of annoyance and helplessness. Fine, let him take her to the hospital to avoid arousing his suspicion. But she was too naive. After taking her to the hospital, the man insisted on going with her to see the doctor!
Are we going to have to send her back in a car later?
"Go eat your food. Who asked you to come with me to the doctor? Aren't you afraid my sister will misunderstand?" she asked angrily, her tone not very friendly.
Shen Yan didn't argue with her because of her tone. She was still young, and he was a mature man, and her soon-to-be brother-in-law. There was no need to hold a grudge against her.
"Your sister would be angry if she knew I abandoned you, right? I'm your soon-to-be brother-in-law now, and since I brought you to the hospital, I have to be responsible for your safety."
"Hurry up and stop talking nonsense." He said, grabbing her arm and pulling her into the hospital.
Nan Weiwei was secretly annoyed—
After going to her attending physician's office, the doctor said it wasn't time to remove the cast yet. However, at her insistence, the doctor removed it anyway.
They examined her fractured bone again and said the recovery was going well. They also advised her to minimize movement of her right arm and absolutely not to lift heavy objects, as the injury was not fully healed yet.
Nan Weiwei also felt a slight pain; even making a simple fist hurt.
"Why did you have to tear it down so early? We could have let it heal a little longer," Chen Yan asked, looking at her.
"It's inconvenient." She thought that since she was already here, she might as well tear it down; it would make things easier afterward. Suddenly, her phone rang. Could it be the chief prosecutor?
"Why aren't you answering your phone?" he asked curiously when she didn't take out her phone for a while.
Weiwei glanced at him, took out her phone and checked the caller ID. Sure enough, it was the prosecutor. She couldn't answer here, so she hung up immediately. She looked at him and said…
"I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, he walked out.
Shen Yan could only wait for her here. Who had called her just now? Could it have been those gangsters again? Now that her cast was off, was she planning to go out and fool around with them again?
After he realized what was happening, he quickly chased after her, but after searching around, he couldn't find her anywhere. He called out a few times near the restroom, but no one answered.
He must have been hanging out with those gangsters. What if something happens to him?
He was surprised that this girl was so insensible—he took out his phone again and dialed Nan Xia's number, only to hear that the phone was switched off.
Did she go home or not?
Shen Yan decided not to have dinner with her friends and drove straight back to her apartment to see if Weiwei had returned and to tell her about Weiwei sneaking out.
-
Inside Song Yanzhi's villa.
Gu Xiaoxing prepared a large table of dishes in the kitchen, went upstairs, and knocked on the study door: "Knock knock—Yanzhi, dinner is ready."
Sitting at his desk, numbing himself with a heavy workload, Song Yanzhi glanced at the door, then got up and opened it.
She looked up at the tall, handsome, and aloof man in front of her, her heart pounding, her eyes practically glued to him. One day she would have him!
The people who kidnapped Nanxia last time failed, so they'll definitely try to kidnap her again, right?
And Zhou Yuanming's son has openly said he wants to kill her. Even without him lifting a finger, she won't have a good ending.
"I cooked dinner tonight, so please try my cooking," Gu Xiaoxing said gently, closing the study door behind her.
“You don’t need to do anything for me, there are servants at home,” Song Yanzhi said in a cold tone.
"I'm your fiancée, so it's only right that I do these things for you. Besides, I... hope you can develop some feelings for me as soon as possible, after all, we're going to spend our lives together."
"I'm not greedy, I just want you to be a little nicer to me." She said, boldly taking his hand.
Song Yanzhi looked at her, feeling somewhat dazed. Was he really going to spend his whole life with her?
But he didn't want Nanxia to see his unhappiness. He wanted her to know that he was happy even if he wasn't with her!
He tried to accept the woman, but didn't let go of her hand. He pulled her downstairs and said, "Let's go."
"..." Gu Xiaoxing was flattered and widened her eyes as he took her hand. Her heart was beating even faster. He actually took my hand?
Does this mean they're accepting me?
She was so excited!
Once downstairs, Song Yanzhi let go of her hand and was about to sit down in the restaurant when Zhizhi suddenly ran over and started barking wildly at the woman beside her:
"Woof woof woof...!"
"Ah!" Gu Xiaoxing exclaimed, taking the opportunity to throw herself into his arms and hug his waist tightly.
"Why is Zhizhi so mean to me? I didn't do anything to it. I even brought it a chicken leg to appease it today."
Song Yanzhi glanced down at her, his brows furrowing slightly. He was still very uncomfortable being hugged by a strange woman, so he pushed her away. "It doesn't like strange women."
"Stop calling out, Zhizhi, go back to your room!" he commanded in a deep, forceful voice.
Zhizhi ignored him and became even angrier when she saw the strange woman standing next to the male owner. Her eyes were full of disgust, she bared her teeth, and lowered her body slightly, as if she was about to attack and bite him.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the stinky dog and gritted her teeth. Why not first frame it and make Song Yanzhi hate the dog, and then get rid of it?
"Zhizhi, be good."
Song Yanzhi's tone grew even more somber. Seeing that it was still disobedient and kept barking at the woman, he had no choice but to go over, pick up its collar, and take it back to the room.
