Chapter 32 Interlude



On the phone, Lin Yuebai was still anxiously continuing, afraid that the person on the other end would hang up, leaving her with no hope.

How could she not know what day it was? Because as a member of the Su Chu family, she also needed to attend, but there were too many people surrounding the main character.

Not only because of security concerns, but also to facilitate handling unnecessary troubles.

Therefore, it's impossible to get close to someone like her who's on the fringes.

"Don't hang up, don't hang up the phone. It's a matter of life and death, it's about Ruan Xi. Ruan Xi committed suicide, she wants to see her older brother,"

While they were talking on the phone, Chu Wuyang, nestled in the man's arms, overheard the gist of the conversation. She jolted awake, looking up but hadn't heard clearly. She tried to lean closer to Jing Min's ear to listen more carefully.

Unfortunately, she wasn't tall enough, so she clung to Jing Min's arm and stumbled while trying to stand on tiptoe. Jing Min quickly caught her and said in a slightly reproachful tone...

Be careful.

"What?" came the reply from the phone.

"It's okay, please continue." There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Lin Yuebai heard it; it must be Chu Wuyang on the other end of the phone. She was in a real hurry, but the man's attention was still on the woman beside him. She felt somewhat frustrated.

She wanted to hang up, but she couldn't be so impulsive as to give up a chance to save Ruanxi, her best friend.

She choked back tears as she spoke, "Ruan Xi is in the hospital. She wants to see her older brother one last time; otherwise, she refuses to go into the operating room."

Chu Wuyang heard clearly now, and glared at Jing Min with displeasure. It was obvious that Ruan Xi was doing this on purpose.

Chu Yao isn't a doctor.

Jingmin looked at her reassuringly and told her not to be anxious.

Considering it involved a life, he instructed his men to do Lin Yuebai a favor and take her to meet the people to discuss the matter.

Chu Wuyang was worried about Ye Yuhe, so she struggled to leave, but the man held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go.

"Why are you so eager to be a third wheel?" The man casually brushed a stray hair behind her ear.

Chu Wuyang felt a little displeased upon hearing this teasing. What kind of time is this?

She glared at the man and tried to break free from his grasp, but he only tightened his grip.

Chu Wuyang said, "It's all your fault for helping your ex-lover."

Jing Min squeezed her hand harder, and Chu Wuyang cried out in pain.

"If you said something wrong, say it again."

Chu Wuyang ignored his rudeness and glared at him with her beautiful eyes.

The man looked at Chu Wuyang, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes. He sighed and said, "Have some faith in Chu Yao. I'm sure he won't abandon Ye Yuhe now. Don't worry."

Chu Wuyang wanted to retort, but her lips moved slightly and she didn't speak.

But his eyes were clearly filled with worry.

Jing Min gazed at her, a slight, indulgent smile playing on his lips. His fingers gently traced her lips, sending a tingling, ticklish sensation through him.

He stared intently at her, as if trying to pierce her soul, his eyes carrying a hint of seduction, and asked, "Do you believe me?"

As if possessed, she nodded slightly. Jing Min was overjoyed, stepped forward, hugged her tightly, and kissed her.

As if anticipating her attempt to dodge, he held her tightly, preventing her from moving.

On the other side of the champagne tower, the shadows of the two people embracing, neck and neck, were reflected.

A person dressed in a traditional Chinese black suit raises a glass of champagne to the two shadows.

In the celebration, bathed in moonlight, the man stood in the half-light, half-shadow, a cold smile playing on his lips.
