The corridor was empty. Ye Xinning bit her lip, lowered her head and avoided looking at Shen Lin. She needed to leave immediately, before she could control her emotions.
But as soon as she walked to Shen Lin's side, Shen Lin grabbed her hand. Shen Lin originally intended to make her stop, but as soon as he held her hand, the burning heat in his palm made Shen Lin frown.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Ye Xinning pushed Shen Lin's hand away, "It has nothing to do with you, let go of me."
Originally, she was angry and displeased when she said this, but because she had been drugged, she sounded weak and listless.
Shen Lin wasn't stupid; he quickly realized what was wrong with her from her unusual complexion and temperature.
He held her hand tightly and scooped her up in his arms.
Ye Xinning was startled by Shen Lin's action of carrying her. She tried to push him away, but he ignored her resistance and carried her directly to the hospital.
...
Upon arriving at the hospital, the doctors had many options, but the effects of Ye Xinning's medication were quickly reduced.
But thinking about how Shen Lin had carried her all the way here, she lost consciousness later and didn't know if she had done anything to Shen Lin.
Thinking this, Ye Xinning turned her head to look at Shen Lishi, who was standing in front of the French window, her eyes filled with embarrassment.
Perhaps her gaze was too intense, for Shen Lin turned around. At that moment, their eyes met, and Ye Xinning quickly looked away.
Ye Xinning lowered her head awkwardly. Just thinking about being drugged and brought to the hospital by her ex-husband made her feel suffocated with embarrassment.
She didn't know how to say it, but Shen Lin had done her a great favor this time. She could foresee how much trouble she would have encountered tonight if Shen Lin hadn't appeared in time.
"Shen Lin, thank you."
When she spoke softly, her smile was gentle and faint. Shen Lin didn't say anything and walked over.
He first touched her face, then her hands, and only after confirming that everything was normal did he speak, "How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"
"Mm." She nodded.
"Tell me if you feel unwell."
Ye Xinning remained silent for a few seconds before whispering, "I want to leave."
"Um."
Ye Xinning exclaimed "Ah!", not understanding what he meant.
After all this commotion, Ye Xinning got back into Shen Lin's car in the early hours of the morning.
"Actually, you didn't have to give me this."
"Now you know to keep your distance from me?"
Ye Xinning exclaimed "Ah!" without understanding what those words meant.
"On the way here, you kept clinging to my clothes, wanting to press your whole body against mine. Did you forget that?"
Ye Xinning, "..."
Her face instantly turned bright red. Had she really done so many shameful things?
Did I really do it?
"Um."
"..."
"I'm sorry."
"No need to apologize, I don't like that kind of verbal expression."
"Huh? What did you say?"
"It's nothing," Shen Lin replied.
It took Ye Xinning a while to realize what Shen Lin had just said.
Does he mean he hopes she can make some concrete gesture? But in the past, Shen Lin would never have said something like that.
She was somewhat surprised by her own perception. As the car drove along, Ye Xinning didn't know what she was thinking, but she suddenly asked that question.
"Shen Lin, have you ever regretted divorcing me, even for a moment?"
"Regret? Heh."
Shen Lin sneered, his tone full of contempt.
Ye Xinning lowered her head and remained silent for a while before speaking again, her tone somewhat nonchalant, "Yeah, that's true. I know you've never cared."
Shen Lin's hand, which was on the steering wheel, froze for a moment. Half a second later, he suddenly accelerated. Ye Xinning looked over there and could clearly see that Shen Lin's gaze was filled with coldness.
She gripped the car handle tightly, wondering what she had said wrong to make Shen Lin so angry.
Shen Lin's speed increased, and Ye Xinning's heart clenched tightly. At an intersection, Shen Lin still did not slow down. Ye Xinning said, "Shen Lin, stop."
"What, scared?"
Shen Lin turned to look at her. Just as Ye Xinning was about to speak, a thud was heard, and Ye Xinning's body slammed forward. She got a bump on her head and winced in pain. She turned her head to look at Shen Lin.
As Shen Lin leaned against the steering wheel, Ye Xinning felt an overwhelming sense of worry. "Shen Lin."
Ye Xinning called Shen Lin several times but he didn't respond. She reached out to support him, "Shen Lin, how are you?"
Shen Lin raised his head and looked in her direction. Blood was flowing from his forehead, and the figure in front of him became blurry. Shen Lin shook his head, trying to see clearly.
But before anything substantial had changed, a deluge of images began to flood his mind, a deluge of things rushing into his head in an instant.
“Chen Lin, you don’t need to work so hard. I can have the bracelet or I can not. As long as I’m with you, I’m happy.”
"Chen Lin, do you think this place will be where we stay for the rest of our lives? Before I met you, I couldn't feel any warmth. After I met you, I feel that even breathing is sweet."
"Chen Lin, how could you be so foolish? You risked your own safety to save me. What would I do if something happened to you?"
"Chen Lin, do you think we'll get married someday?"
"Ningning, you are the only person I want to marry. I will only marry you in this lifetime."
"Your safety is the most important thing to me. Without you, my life would have no meaning."
"Chen Lin, what if one day you stop loving me?"
"impossible."
"Really?"
"If I treat you badly, don't be soft-hearted, and never forgive me for the rest of your life."
Ye Xinning kept trying to wake Shen Lin, but no matter how she called him, he didn't respond. Shen Lin was holding his head, and she thought he had a headache. "I'll take you back to the hospital."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Lin let out a painful roar and fainted the next second.
...
Shen Lin fainted and returned to the hospital. He was immediately taken to the emergency room, where Shen Nanxing was on duty.
"What happened?"
"I was in a car accident, and then I fainted."
"Don't worry, I'll go get checked out first."
"good."
Shen Nanxing then instructed the nurse to treat the bump on Ye Xinning's head.
Ye Xinning wanted to say no, and wanted to wait at the door, but she was angry when she thought about Shen Lin's behavior tonight. If he hadn't suddenly accelerated for no reason, how could this minor car accident have happened?
