He quietly observed Shen Ye's cautious gaze and knew that he had misunderstood again.
Shen Ye quickly shook his head and whispered, "I'm so thirsty, I want to drink water."
Upon hearing this, Yan Bai turned around, took the water cup from the tray beside him, and fed him the water.
After drinking water, the dryness in my throat was finally relieved, but the room became quiet again.
Shen Ye didn't lie back down. Instead, she sat on the bed, looking at Yan Bai without saying a word.
"Yan Bai." After a long while, Shen Ye couldn't help but speak, breaking the silence.
"Um."
"Why did you marry Li Xintong? I've been missing for so long, didn't you even look for me?"
The atmosphere turned cold again, the silence was unbearable, and the man's eyes were sharp as arrows.
Even though he didn't speak and his expression was calm, he couldn't hide the anger in his eyes.
Shen Ye couldn't understand what Yan Bai was angry about.
He was the one who was kidnapped and suffering, but why did the atmosphere seem to be as if Yan Bai, the one who was kidnapped, was the one being held hostage?
"If I hadn't come today, would you have married Li Xintong, abandoned me, and forgotten your promise to me?"
"I don't."
He finally spoke.
"Then why didn't you come to me? Do you know what I've been through this past month?" Shen Ye could no longer control his emotions; he roared hysterically.
When Shen Ye asked him that question, Yan Bai felt as if his heart was on fire, and he was in great pain.
What should he say? That he's been looking for him every day, but he's useless, can't find him, and naively thinks Shen Ye is just hiding, so he resorted to this method?
Forget it!
Yan Bai saw it when he was changing his clothes, so of course he knew what he had been through, but he dared not think about it, nor would he.
Shen Ye thought things would be like in romance novels, where someone would come to rescue him immediately after he was kidnapped.
But he was wrong. He waited foolishly, clinging to hope, waiting for his prince to come and save him.
In the end, he didn't see the prince, but instead his kidnappers appeared.
Those people beat him, beat him with sticks, beat him with belts, burned him with cigarette butts, and pinned him to the ground, burning him severely...
When Shen Ye resisted, they beat him even more fiercely until he could no longer resist.
The system had offered to help Shen Ye, but Shen Ye, as if he had lost his mind, refused the system's help because he believed that Yan Bai would definitely come to save him, so he had to wait.
On the night of the 27th day of his wait, Shen Ye overheard the kidnappers saying that Yan Bai was getting married.
At that moment, it felt as if something was falling rapidly.
He suffered all night, but finally, on the morning of the next day, the day Yan Bai married Li Xintong, he successfully escaped with the help of the system.
The first thing they did after escaping was to find Yan Bai.
"I......"
He mumbled something for a long time, trying to find an answer to Shen Ye, but his mind was a complete blank and he couldn't think of anything.
Shen Ye looked at Yan Bai in disbelief, as if she had been hurt: "You've never liked me at all? Not even a little bit!"
Yan Bai instinctively retorted, "No, that's not it, I like you."
How could he not like Shen Ye? For the past six months, even though they lived together, even though they saw each other every day, even though their offices were only separated by a wall, he thought about seeing Shen Ye all the time.
Later, when Shen Ye was transferred to a branch hospital, he even thought about going to the branch hospital with him, so that at least he would feel more at ease.
