"Ah?!" Qiao Lina was startled, and her heart immediately tightened.
Her expression changed slightly, becoming somewhat unnatural.
Her hands unconsciously gripped the sheets, her heart pounding like a deer.
She didn't expect Lin Ruoxi to suddenly bring up this issue with her.
This incident made her feel guilty and ashamed when facing Lin Ruoxi.
This caused her to feel guilty.
All these factors combined made Qiao Lina anxious and panicked.
"What should we do? Has Ruoxi really discovered something?"
"Could it be that Ruoxi really found Ye Chen and me in the bathroom?"
Qiao Lina dared not meet Lin Ruoxi's gaze, fearing she would give herself away.
"Or is Ruoxi testing me?"
For a moment, Qiao Lina was unsure whether it was true or false; Lin Ruoxi's words had caught her completely off guard.
Ye Chen, who was standing to the side, did not expect Lin Ruoxi to say such a thing.
This made him feel somewhat guilty and nervous, fearing that Lin Ruoxi might discover something.
Lin Ruoxi noticed that Qiao Lina remained silent, and her expression changed.
Lin Ruoxi was puzzled and also quite worried that something had gone wrong.
"Lina, what's wrong? You seem very nervous," Lin Ruoxi asked.
"Really?" Jolina asked nervously.
"Your face, expression, and tone of voice all reflect this."
At this point, Lin Ruoxi looked at Qiao Lina with a serious expression.
"Lina, are you hiding something from me?"
Lin Ruoxi's words were like a sharp arrow piercing directly into Qiao Lina's heart.
Qiao Lina was nervous and uneasy, her mind went blank, and her heart was in complete turmoil.
She didn't know how to answer Lin Ruoxi's question.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Qiao Lina was extremely anxious.
Seeing this, Lin Ruoxi became even more worried, fearing that something had happened to the other person.
However, that's not what Qiao Lina really thought.
She wondered if Lin Ruoxi knew something, which was why she asked that question.
If Lin Ruoxi finds out about her and Ye Chen's affair, then she's really doomed.
Thinking about this, Qiao Lina became even more nervous and uneasy.
Qiao Lina couldn't help but look at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with pleading.
Ye Chen, of course, understood the meaning in Qiao Lina's eyes.
"Ruoxi, is there even a need to ask? Of course there's someone." Ye Chen chuckled.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Lina's expression changed once again.
Surprise, disbelief, tension, and trepidation were among the complex emotions that frequently overwhelmed her.
Ye Chen's answer made her extremely nervous.
Qiao Lina originally thought Ye Chen would help her out of the predicament, but unexpectedly he admitted it to Lin Ruoxi.
Qiao Lina's heart was in her throat.
"Ye Chen, what are you doing? Isn't this just admitting your guilt?"
Qiao Lina was extremely anxious and gave Ye Chen a look.
Ye Chen seemed not to have noticed Qiao Lina's signal.
"Lina has difficulty moving around now, so someone must help her when she goes to the toilet."
"It's over, it's all over now," Qiao Lina thought to herself, feeling utterly hopeless.
"If you weren't there, then it must have been a nurse or caregiver who helped."
Just when Qiao Lina thought things were about to be exposed, Ye Chen's words took an unexpected turn.
Qiao Lina's eyes widened in surprise and delight.
“Ye Chen is right, I was inside with the nurse at the time,” Qiao Lina quickly said.
"Ruoxi, is something the matter?"
"No, I was just asking casually," Lin Ruoxi said softly.
"Are you really alright?" Jolina asked again.
After all, Qiao Lina was also worried that this might be a test from Lin Ruoxi.
"It's nothing, I just asked because I was worried something might be wrong."
"Now that I know it was a nurse who helped you, I feel relieved."
Lin Ruoxi looked at Qiao Lina and a smile appeared on her face.
Qiao Lina heard Lin Ruoxi say this, but then didn't notice anything amiss.
As a result, her anxiety was relieved.
"Oh, I see."
"Ruoxi, thank you for your concern," Qiao Lina said.
"No need, we're best friends."
"It's only right that I care about you. As long as you're alright, I'm relieved."
Qiao Lina said with a smile, looking at Qiao Lina.
"Let's not talk about that now. Didn't you say you were hungry? Let's eat something first."
Lin Ruoxi sat down on the edge of the hospital bed with the food in her hands.
"Do you want me to feed you?" Lin Ruoxi asked Qiao Lina.
"Okay, thank you for your help," Qiao Lina said quickly.
Then Lin Ruoxi took a spoon and fed Qiao Lina little by little.
Seeing that there was nothing else, Ye Chen went outside and sat down.
"Phew—" Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped outside.
The experience just now was truly dramatic and a bit thrilling.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, otherwise the matter would have been exposed.
If Lin Ruoxi finds out, it will cause trouble.
"It seems I'll have to be more careful in the future to avoid causing any trouble."
Ye Chen thought to himself, a complex expression appearing on his face.
Time passed slowly as Lin Ruoxi looked at Qiao Lina.
"Lina, you must be careful in the future and pay attention to safety."
“You have no idea how worried I was when I received the call from the hospital saying that you were seriously injured.”
"Fortunately, you're alright now."
"Thank you, Ruoxi, you're so kind to me," Qiao Lina said gratefully.
"You're welcome, we're best friends."
Lin Ruoxi smiled and said, her words radiating sincerity.
Qiao Lina felt very guilty when she heard Lin Ruoxi say that.
She was overwhelmed by guilt and remorse once again for having seduced Ye Chen behind her best friend's back.
