Xiao Jinhan opened WeChat.
Xu Jiajia sent a message: "Fourth Master, I heard that Miss Tang is sick. She's in the ward next to mine. Is she asleep? Can I come and see her?"
Xiao Jinhan's long, slender eyebrows were somewhat cold as he replied, "She's asleep. I don't think your relationship with her is good enough for you to come and visit."
The satire is palpable in the text, leaving no room for doubt.
As Xu Jiajia looked at the text on her phone, tears welled up in her eyes.
Even though they were only in one room apart, I could still sense his indifference, as if he had no feelings for her whatsoever.
She remembered that when he brought her to the hospital last night, she thought he was very worried and rushed her to the hospital to "make things easy" for the doctors.
However, he never came to see her in the ward again. It was only when Uncle He told her that he had left that she realized he didn't want to see her alone at all.
He took care of everything out of a sense of responsibility, not out of worry, and certainly not out of love.
He just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
Hoping for the best, she called Jiang Ci to ask if Fourth Master had a very important meeting.
But it turned out that Tang Yaoyao was waiting for him at home.
Xiao Jinhan, oh Xiao Jinhan, you truly are a heartless and ruthless person.
Not entirely.
He's different with Tang Yaoyao, isn't he?
Xu Jiajia's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at his sarcastic and indifferent words, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.
What makes Tang Yaoyao worthy of his affection?
She's nothing but a womanizer who steals men.
Her parents entrusted her to Fourth Master, and she was his wife. Even if he didn't want to admit it, it was his duty.
This is what he owes Xu Jiajia.
Thinking about this, the sadness in my heart seemed to lessen a little.
Fourth Master is a man too, so it's normal for him to be interested in other women before getting married.
It's okay, she will make sure that he only has her in his life from now on.
Thinking of this, she smiled faintly, regained her confidence, and sent him a text message: "Fourth Master, next week is the anniversary of my parents' death. Can you come with me to visit them?"
She waited for a very long time, and finally, ten minutes later, Xiao Jinhan replied to her: "Okay."
Xu Jiajia's smile became increasingly pronounced; she wanted to constantly remind him not to forget this responsibility.
He then posted another message: "Fourth Master, my legs hurt so much, can you come and see me?"
This time, Xiao Jinhan didn't reply to her.
She waited for two hours, but her phone remained silent except for the news of Tang Yaoyao's scandal.
Xiao Jinhan seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Xu Jiajia was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone, but she suppressed her anger.
She is Xiao Jinhan's future wife, so she must be magnanimous.
Only in this way can she be worthy of being the wife of the dignified Master Xiao.
Finally, he revealed an extremely twisted smile.
Thinking of Tang Yaoyao's arrogant attitude and alluring smile, she gripped the quilt tightly with both hands.
She would absolutely not let this pain go to waste.
...
the next day.
When Tang Yaoyao woke up, the pain had subsided.
Xiao Jinhan had prepared breakfast for her and placed it on the table, but he had already left.
Tang Yaoyao looked up and saw Jiang Ci standing there. She moved her lips, her voice a little dry: "Where is Fourth Master?"
"The old lady wanted to see him, she just left."
The old lady...
This title sounds unfamiliar.
He asked softly, "Master Xiao's mother?"
"She is Fourth Master's grandmother."
Tang Yaoyao: "..."
Jiang Ci raised the hospital bed and placed the food on the small table: "These were all stewed by Uncle He instructing the kitchen to prepare. Drink them while they're hot."
Tang Yaoyao was indeed hungry. When she saw the black chicken soup, she smiled with extreme hunger and licked her lips: "Uncle He really knows my preferences."
Jiang Ci: "Ahem... Fourth Master said you wanted to drink chicken soup."
"So it sounds like Fourth Master isn't entirely clueless about romance after all," Tang Yaoyao said with a roguish grin, a hint of flirtatious lewdness in her expression.
Jiang Ci: "..."
Look, this is Miss Tang.
Any other woman, like Xu Jiajia next door, would be overjoyed and moved to tears if she received such treatment.
Only Miss Tang seemed to be someone whom the Fourth Prince cared about, as if it were a blessing he had earned through countless lifetimes.
Such a woman may be a bit annoying, but she also makes people unconsciously like her.
It's very unique.
"Miss Tang, what would you like to eat for lunch? I'll have the kitchen prepare it for you."
Tang Yaoyao thought for a moment, then said without any hesitation, "Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised pork, carp soup, and if there's roasted rabbit, that would be even more perfect~"
Jiang Ci: "..."
Roasted rabbit...
Well……
Honestly, he couldn't bear to see the rabbit. This Miss Tang is truly unique.
"Okay, I'll bring it to you at noon."
As she spoke, Jiang Ci picked up the lunchbox.
"I won't say thank you. After all, I treated your Fourth Master's illness but didn't pay me for the medical expenses. It's only right that I accept your Fourth Master's money."
Jiang Ci: "Hmm, that makes sense."
Afterwards, he offered a few more words of concern and advice before leaving.
He had barely left when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened.
Tang Yaoyao looked up and saw Xu Jiajia sitting in a wheelchair, looking very haggard. It seemed that the fall had been quite severe.
"Miss Tang, are you feeling better?"
Tang Yaoyao leaned against the bedside, looking at the bandage wrapped around her leg, and smiled brightly: "Compared to you, I'm much better off."
Xu Jiajia didn't expect her to be so sharp-tongued.
Tang Yaoyao then said, "You're in this hospital too?"
"Yes, Fourth Master sent you here and you're staying next to me, all to take care of me. Speaking of which, I should have come to see you yesterday, but my leg injury was a bit serious, so Fourth Master told me to rest and lie down, and I couldn't come. I hope Miss Tang won't forgive me."
Tang Yaoyao didn't give her any face at all, and burst out laughing.
She considered herself thick-skinned, something most people couldn't imitate, but today, even she couldn't help but step down.
The character of Xu Jiajia, the female lead, failed to work out last time, so this time they're trying again, this time with the added element of being pampered.
“Xu Jiajia, Fourth Master stayed here all night last night, doing everything himself. Should I thank you? I only received Fourth Master’s meticulous care because of you.”
Xu Jiajia's smile froze; she thought that Fourth Master had gone back later.
He actually stayed by Tang Yaoyao's side all night?!
Comparing herself to him, she realized she hadn't seen the Fourth Master since being admitted to the hospital, and immediately felt resentful, but she still had to maintain the demeanor of the lady of the house: "Miss Tang, you're too kind."
Tang Yaoyao's smile was incredibly alluring, and her eyes held a powerful, piercing gaze: "There will be many more times when I need you to do something for me, but I haven't thought of anything right now. Once I do, I certainly won't be so polite."
Xu Jiajia hadn't expected that her actions would only provoke her further, instead causing her some trouble. Fuming with anger, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "Miss Tang, you probably don't know about the news about you in the entertainment industry, do you?"
