Shen Lin asked the question in a low voice, then stared intently at Ye Xinning.
Ye Xinning did not respond to Shen Lin's words.
Ji Jianshen strode away, but Shen Lin couldn't bear to let them go like that. She wanted to chase after him, but Su Wan blocked her way.
"Shen Lin, you want to chase after her, you want her to stay, and then what? Can you explain your relationship with Jiang An clearly?"
Shen Lin pursed his thin lips into a line and remained silent for a long time.
Su Wan spoke again, "Right? You can't give her any explanation. Chasing after her will only make her more upset. She's pregnant now. Have you thought about what the consequences would be if she got so angry that she had a stroke?"
Chen Lin, overwhelmed by Su Wan's words, finally relented, "Take good care of her for me."
"Of course, you don't need to tell me that, Shen Lin. Although I don't know why you suddenly appeared with Jiang An, or why you can't give a reasonable explanation, I still want to give you some advice. Ningning's personality is one of clear likes and dislikes. The reason she chose you a second time is because she loves you. When you exhaust her love time and time again, that's when you will have completely lost her."
After saying this, Su Wan ignored Shen Lin's expression and strode forward to catch up with Ji Jianshen and Ye Xinning.
...
Ye Xinning was taken to the hospital by Ji Jianshen and Su Wan.
After examination, the doctor determined that there was nothing seriously wrong. It was just that she was so emotionally agitated that she couldn't calm down in time, which led to the near fainting incident.
"It's good that you're alright." Su Wan listened to the doctor's words and finally felt relieved.
"You scared me to death," Su Wan said, holding Ye Xinning's hand.
Ye Xinning knew she was worried, so she touched her hand reassuringly, "It's okay, I'm sitting right next to you."
"Okay, it's good that everything is alright." Su Wan asked the doctor some more questions before leaving the hospital with Ye Xinning. Throughout the process, Ji Jianshen stayed by their side.
After leaving the hospital, Su Wan noticed that Ye Xinning didn't mention Shen Lin at all, and she knew what Ye Xinning's plan was.
"I'll take Ningning to my hotel," Su Wan said to Ji Jianshen.
Ji Jianshen said, "I'll take you to my place here."
"No." This refusal wasn't from Su Wan.
Su Wan turned her head to look at Ye Xinning, and she understood to some extent why Ye Xinning had rejected Ji Jianshen.
“You’re pregnant. Although the doctor said there’s nothing serious, I’m still a little worried about you and Su Wan staying at a hotel alone.”
Ye Xinning wanted to say there was nothing to worry about, but Su Wan spoke first.
“Ji Jianshen’s consideration makes sense. It’s really not appropriate for me to take you to the hotel alone. If you feel unwell at night, I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it by myself. Anyway, he has a house in Nancheng, and we’ve known each other for a while. It won’t be a problem for you to stay there.”
Since Su Wan has already said that, it would be somewhat pretentious for Ye Xinning to refuse again.
So the three of them went together to Ji Jianshen's villa in the suburbs.
In the car, Su Wan asked Ji Jianshen why he had appeared.
"We have a partnership with the He Group."
Su Wan was surprised. Why hadn't Ji Jianshen mentioned before that he also had a business relationship with the He family?
"That's quite a coincidence," Su Wan said casually.
While the two were talking, Ye Xinning kept looking out the car window. Her face looked terrible, with a hint of paleness. She sat there without saying a word, looking very lonely.
Su Wan secretly grasped her hand, hoping to give her some strength in this way.
Upon arriving at their destination, Su Wan helped Ye Xinning out of the car. Just as they sat down in the living room, Li Zeyao called.
Su Wan wanted to hang up the phone, but Ye Xinning held her hand. "I'm fine. Go answer the phone. Li Zeyao is calling at this time because he probably has something to tell you."
"It's the same as calling him back later."
Ye Xinning smiled and shook her head, "Really, there's no need. You go pick it up. I'll talk to Ji Jianshen for a bit."
Su Wan's gaze fell on Ji Jianshen. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally nodded, took the phone, and went outside.
Only Ye Xinning and Ji Jianshen remained in the living room. The person who had said she wanted to talk to Ji Jianshen was now just staring blankly at the bracelet on her wrist.
Ji Jianshen knew perfectly well that Ye Xinning's words were just to reassure Su Wan.
"Are you alright?"
Without saying much, Ji Jianshen spoke, his tone still gentle.
Ye Xinning licked her dry lips and smiled somewhat palely, "It's really funny, you've seen me at my most pathetic."
"Between you and me, there is no such thing as being in a sorry state or not."
Ye Xinning sighed, "That may be true, but the way I acted in the He family was quite unsightly, wasn't it?"
Are other people's opinions that important to you?
Ye Xinning tugged at the corner of her lips and smiled, "That makes sense, I do care too much about the outside world."
After talking for so long, constantly circling around the outside of the main topic, Ye Xinning looked up at Ji Jianshen and asked.
"Don't you want to ask what happened before you arrived?"
What happened is not important.
"So what is important to you?"
"It's something I care about."
What do you care about?
"nothing."
Ye Xinning looked at Ji Jianshen and suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Ji Jianshen's eyes also held amusement.
"I was just thinking, if I had your calm mindset, I probably wouldn't be acting so badly right now."
Ji Jianshen stared intently, remaining silent.
Ye Xinning looked out the window, and the two of them fell into silence.
Finally, Ji Jianshen broke the silence, "He... wasn't good to you?"
"Before today, I felt that he was very attentive and doting on me, which even gave me the illusion that I was the love of his life. But tonight I realized that sometimes, being infatuated can make you see things through a veil."
"Have these changes altered your beliefs?"
Ji Jianshen's tone remained gentle, but the meaning behind his words made Ye Xinning chuckle softly, "You want to ask me what my plans are next? To be honest, Ji Jianshen, I don't know."
I don't know what to do next, and I don't know how to face Chen Lin.
Everything happened so suddenly tonight that her mind is still a complete blank.
She couldn't understand why Shen Lin would appear with Jiang An.
