The stalemate lasted for half an hour.
Rong Shang said nothing and turned to leave.
A deep, unwavering gaze followed closely behind.
Until her figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Xia Mu then looked away.
His narrow eyes were slightly lowered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Before long, a transparent screen appeared in front of me.
The display above shows: Fifty wounded.
Xia Mu finally couldn't hold back any longer and winced in pain.
A few seconds later, it closed its eyes.
On the screen, the red circle keeps spinning.
The above shows: During wound cleaning, 10%, 20%, 30%...
100%!
Just then, a woman's voice came from the front.
"Natsuki."
In that instant, a hint of panic flashed across his eyes.
The moment Xia Mu looked up, the transparent screen in front of her disappeared.
Rong Shang narrowed her eyes, her gaze dangerous. "What have you done this time without letting me know?"
"No," it stubbornly insisted once again.
Rong Shang went up and grabbed its hand.
Click, a sound.
A cool temperature was felt.
It looked down and panicked.
They are handcuffs.
One handcuffed to its wrist, the other... to her.
"What are you doing?" Xia Mu asked with a serious face.
Rong Chang wasn't going to play along either.
She smiled, raised her head slightly, and gave it a raised eyebrow, saying, "Let's handcuff ourselves together, and see how you run away next."
"Going to the toilet?"
She needs to go to the toilet, right?
"Together."
"Taking a bath?"
"Together."
"...And what about sleeping?"
Rong Shang smiled, "Let's go together."
Xia Mu almost fainted.
"That won't do," it said. "It wouldn't be good for you if word got out. It's already bad enough that a man and a woman are alone together in a room, but now if I'm watching you every time you go to the toilet, take a shower, or sleep, then..."
"I don't mind."
“I mind!” Xia Mu frowned.
I was thinking to myself, "You may not care about your reputation, but I do."
With a blank expression, Xia Mu turned to leave.
But no sooner had the long legs taken a step than...
Clang, clang.
The sound of handcuffs came from inside.
It was then pulled back by the woman behind it.
"..."
I have no will to live.

A few days later, An Tong was discharged from the hospital.
That day, her best friend was wronged by Rong Shang and called her to tell her about it.
What puzzled An Tong was that Qiao Xi seemed to have changed.
She used to have no temper at all.
They wouldn't run away halfway, much less tattle on him to Master Qiao.
What exactly went wrong?
When An Tong was discharged from the hospital, she called Rong Shang.
Ask her if she's free to come pick her up.
To her surprise, she coldly replied, "I have to go to work. You'll have to take a taxi home yourself," and hung up the phone.
An Tong looked completely bewildered.
Luo Fan eagerly followed after them.
She turned around without saying a word, and with a slap, raised her hand and slapped him across the face.
"..."
"It's all your fault."
Thinking about that incident, An Tong still felt wronged.
"If it weren't for you, we would have been together openly and honestly by now."
Why should I need to avoid her?
And it was indeed his oversight that caused this.
Luo Fan admitted his mistake.
"It's cold, let's hurry back to the Qiao family's place."
...
Now the An family has kicked her out.
An Tong can't go anywhere.
They could only return to the Qiao family home for a while.
But to everyone's surprise, Qiao Xi wasn't there when they arrived.
Her stepmother would try to drive her away as soon as she saw her.
At that moment, Luo Fan blocked her way and kept explaining to Madam Qiao.
It's useless, it's all useless.
Mrs. Qiao said, "That brat Qiao Xi bullied our Qiao Li a few days ago. I will never take in her friends."
"Aunt."
"Auntie, I don't know you, get out of here."
