"Isn't Yu Shao a notorious playboy in the capital?"
"Why did you call him?" Qin Wan asked Lu Shaohan, puzzled.
Lu Shaohan stared intently at her with his deep gaze, his thin lips pressed tightly together, "...He's a seasoned player in love."
"A seasoned player in love?" Qin Wan was taken aback.
"You..." Qin Wan snapped back to reality, her eyes flashing, "You're asking about relationships?"
Lu Shaohan neither admitted nor denied it, but the answer was already clear.
...
...
...
An eerie silence fell over the large ward for a moment.
Qin Wan looked at him with complicated emotions, a hint of sadness and loneliness in her eyes.
"You...you have someone you like?" Qin Wan asked with difficulty, her voice sounding somewhat lonely, and even slightly low and hoarse.
“…I’m not entirely sure.” Lu Shaohan pursed his thin lips and remained silent for a moment before speaking.
Upon hearing his reply, Qin Wan's expression did not improve; instead, it became even more grave, and the sadness in her eyes was now clearly visible and could not be concealed.
"What did Yu Shao say?" Qin Wan stared at him blankly, asking in a low voice.
"He said... if nothing unexpected happens, there's a 99% chance he's fallen for her."
“Ninety-nine percent…” Qin Wan’s face turned pale instantly.
...
...
...
After another eerie silence, Qin Wan stared blankly at Lu Shaohan for a long while.
"I wonder which girl is so lucky?" Her voice and tone sounded obviously off.
...
Lu Shaohan did not answer her question immediately.
He looked at her with a complicated expression, remaining silent for a long time.
"Is it inconvenient to say?" Qin Wan's face seemed to turn even paler.
“No…” Lu Shaohan pursed his thin lips, his gaze towards her becoming increasingly complicated.
"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you," Qin Wan said, taking a deep breath and trying to sound calm.
"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
After saying that, she turned to leave, but a familiar, deep, magnetic male voice reached her ears.
Not only that, a warm, slender hand also grabbed her wrist.
"you."
Qin Wan was stunned.
Her slender body froze on the spot.
Her delicate face was blank, and she let Lu Shaohan grab her shoulders and turn her around.
You heard me right.
"I'm not wrong either."
"You are the one who makes me uneasy."
Lu Shaohan's simple words left Qin Wan staring at him in a daze, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
"...Me?" After a long while, she tentatively spoke, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Lu Shaohan didn't rush to answer her. He pulled her out of the messy ward, and the two walked side by side in the hospital's tranquil garden with its excellent environment and fresh air.
"I have been immersed in my studies and career since I was a child, and I have never dated anyone, let alone been attracted to any girl."
"You... are an exception, and the first of your kind."
"So I can't be sure whether I like you or just admire and feel a connection with you."
Just as Qin Wan was lost in thought, Lu Shaohan's voice broke the silence and reached her ears.
She paused in her steps, turned her head, and looked at him with a complicated expression.
"So... how did you ask Yu Shao?"
"How did he determine that you...?"
Qin Wan didn't continue speaking, seemingly out of shyness or perhaps unsure of what to say.
"..."
Lu Shaohan paused slightly, his tall figure turning around to face Qin Wan.
Their eyes met...
The complex emotions surging in Lu Shaohan's dark eyes were clearly visible, and the unease, tension, and anxiety in Qin Wan's eyes were also blatantly exposed to Lu Shaohan without any concealment.
Originally, Lu Shaohan was still organizing his thoughts in his mind, thinking about how to start the conversation.
Seeing Qin Wan's appearance, he calmed down instead.
“In a crowd, my eyes will always follow you, chasing after you…” Lu Shaohan said slowly.
"I find it cute when I see you bullying Lu Shaojin..."
"When I learned about the incident in the ward, my first reaction was to worry about whether you were alright, and whether Lu Shaojin had hurt you..."
"besides……"
"At the engagement party, seeing the intimate photos and videos of Lu Shaojin and Yin Jiajia, I would subconsciously look at you, worrying whether you would be sad..."
At this point, Lu Shaohan paused. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but then stopped himself from speaking.
He looked at Qin Wan, his deep eyes churning with turbulent emotions.
"What's wrong?" Qin Wan felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, a faint look of unease appearing on her delicate face.
Lu Shaohan pursed his thin lips and pondered for a moment before saying, "Those photos and videos were given to you by me. This isn't the first time I've seen them."
"When I first saw those photos and videos, I was indifferent. I was even full of thoughts about how to scheme against Lu Shaojin and make sure he would never be able to turn things around."
"Can……"
At this point, Lu Shaohan paused again. This time, he seemed to have confirmed something, his burning gaze fixed on Qin Wan without blinking an eye.
"But when I saw those photos for the second time at the engagement party last night, my feelings were very complicated."
"I feel... nervous and worried."
"All these emotions are because of you."
“I was afraid you would be sad, afraid you couldn’t handle it, afraid your emotions would be affected, so at the engagement party last night, my eyes never left you.”
Lu Shaohan didn't utter a single sweet word, but his words, when they reached Qin Wan's ears, were more powerful than any love confession in the world.
Her gaze was fixed on him, her red lips slightly curved, her eyebrows arched, and her beautiful crescent-shaped eyes seemed to smile, making one's mood and the corners of one's mouth involuntarily turn up.
Under her influence, Lu Shaohan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and the solemn look on his face gradually faded.
[Lu Shaohan's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 83.]
Even though she hadn't said anything yet, his mood unconsciously relaxed.
In that instant, he didn't worry about whether she would agree, whether she would dislike him, whether she would harbor resentment or dislike him, or whether she would distance herself from him because of it.
At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was...
She has a beautiful smile.
"Does Big Brother want to know what I'm thinking?" Qin Wan asked with a smile.
Lu Shaohan's thin lips were pursed, forming a tight line. He did not answer Qin Wan's question of whether she wanted to or not, but his deep and piercing gaze never left her.
Seeing this, Qin Wan's smile deepened.
She tentatively touched Lu Shaohan's hand...
Seeing that he didn't dodge, she suddenly became much bolder and gently hooked her little finger around his.
Lu Shaohan's fingertips twitched slightly, and his tall body stiffened for a moment, but he still did not dodge or shake off the attack.
The smile in Qin Wan's eyes deepened...
At the same time, she became even bolder.
This time, she wasn't content with just hooking one finger around his; she launched a full-scale attack, forcefully inserting all five fingers between his fingers...
