"How about we make a bet?"
Li Susu said she didn't want to bet with him: "Just tell me the result."
Fu Xingzhou said, "Chen Ke will appear at the banquet in a little while."
“Because I came, he was worried that if I got close to you, I would persuade you.”
Li Susu frowned in confusion, clearly not understanding the cause and effect.
Fu Xingzhou took two steps back and told Li Susu, "If Chen Ke asks me what I told you, just tell the truth."
"He will definitely put all the blame on me."
"If you have any questions after the dinner, you can come find me at the coffee shop next door."
After saying that, Fu Xingzhou left.
Li Susu pondered in her heart, what did Fu Xingzhou mean by that?
Sure enough, Chen Ke appeared a dozen minutes later.
He sat in a wheelchair, being pushed by his assistant.
Seeing that Li Susu was still in the lounge, he couldn't help but ask, "What did Fu Xingzhou say?"
Li Susu was startled.
Fu Xingzhou actually guessed that Chen Ke would come.
"He asked me about the car accident, saying he had found some clues and wanted to share them with me."
Chen Ke abruptly interrupted Li Susu.
"Provocation! He's clearly deliberately finding someone to take the blame in order to sow discord between us!"
Chen Ke's tone was filled with anger and resentment.
He pushed his wheelchair forcefully, moving closer to Li Susu.
"Arno, why are you still entangled with him?"
"Is he really more important than me, the one who saved your life?"
Li Susu pursed her lips, avoiding the question.
"Your injuries haven't healed yet, why are you out of the hospital?"
Chen Ke gave a wry smile and took out an exquisite box from his pocket.
"He threw away the gift I prepared."
"I had no choice but to come in person."
His gaze fell on Li Susu's neck, where the dazzling ruby necklace shone brightly under the light.
"It seems you prefer his gift?"
Li Susu felt a little uncomfortable.
She had been so preoccupied with the car accident that she completely forgot to take it off.
Reminded by Chen Keyi, she quickly took off the ruby necklace and put it back in the velvet box.
Chen Ke smiled with satisfaction and handed the exquisite box in his hand to Li Susu.
"Arno, this is what I prepared for you. Open it and take a look."
Li Susu pushed the box back.
"Chen Ke, I can't accept such a valuable gift."
"I will also return the necklace that Fu Xingzhou gave me."
Chen Ke's smile froze. He gasped and clutched his chest.
The assistant standing to the side immediately understood.
"Mr. Chen! Are you alright? Did your wound reopen?"
"I was in such a rush when I came out that I forgot to change your dressing!"
Li Susu's heart tightened, and she quickly said, "Then you should take him back to the hospital right away!"
She reached out to help Chen Ke, but Chen Ke grabbed her arm.
Chen Ke's face grew paler and paler, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He breathed heavily in pain, tightly gripping Li Susu's hand.
"Arno... come with me... back to the hospital..."
Li Susu hesitated. The banquet was specially organized for her by her brother, and it seemed inappropriate for her to leave early like this.
"But...the banquet..."
Chen Ke suddenly fainted and his body slumped towards Li Susu.
Li Susu was startled and quickly supported him, exclaiming in surprise.
"Chen Ke! Chen Ke!"
At this moment, Li Yulin rushed over and frowned upon seeing the scene.
"Susu, what happened?"
Li Susu didn't have time to explain much; she looked anxiously at Li Yulin.
"Sorry, brother, I have to take Chen Ke to the hospital first."
"I'll leave the banquet arrangements to you two to handle."
Li Yulin wanted to ask something more, but seeing Li Susu's anxious expression and Chen Ke's unconscious state, he ultimately said nothing.
With Chen Ke's help, Li Susu quickly left the banquet hall with the assistance of her assistant.
A black sedan was already waiting at the door, and Li Susu and her assistant carefully helped Chen Ke into the car.
She glanced back at the brightly lit banquet hall, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
As the taillights of the black sedan faded into the distance, Li Yulin let out a heavy sigh.
He took out his phone and dialed Fu Xingzhou's number.
