As a victim, Qiao Lina developed a deep-seated fear of Shen Zhiwei.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid when the other person appeared here.
"Stop right there!"
Seeing her best friend so frightened, Lin Ruoxi immediately stood in front of Shen Zhiwei, her eyes filled with vigilance.
Shen Zhiwei immediately stopped in his tracks after being warned by Lin Ruoxi.
"I don't care who you are, leave immediately," Lin Ruoxi said warily.
Shen Zhiwei was very anxious when he heard this, as the situation was not quite what he had expected.
"Miss Qiao, please don't misunderstand, please let me explain."
"I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, you just need to leave." Qiao Lina was very uneasy.
Seeing this, Shen Zhiwei was also furious.
In the past, he would have taken direct action.
If you make me unhappy, I'll make you suffer terribly—that's Shen Zhiwei's arrogant style.
But now he dared not, because his life was in Jolina's hands.
If Qiao Lina doesn't forgive him, his life will be in danger.
Thinking of the pain caused by the poison taking effect, Shen Zhiwei felt a wave of fear.
With a thud, Shen Zhiwei suddenly knelt down.
Qiao Lina and Lin Ruoxi were both taken aback by Shen Zhiwei's sudden action.
Especially for Jolina, she never expected things to turn out this way.
In Qiao Lina's mind, Shen Zhiwei was arrogant and domineering, and bullied others by abusing his power.
This time, Qiao Lina thought the other party was coming for revenge.
She never expected that Shen Zhiwei would kneel in front of her; this was something she had never anticipated.
After a brief moment of surprise, Jolina became wary again.
"Shen Zhiwei, what... what do you want to do!" Qiao Lina looked wary.
"Miss Qiao, I'm here to apologize to you."
"What happened last time was indeed my fault; I was just confused for a moment."
Shen Zhiwei quickly said, even though he was very unhappy.
Qiao Lina was taken aback, and her heart was filled with a surge of emotions.
If she hadn't seen and heard it with her own eyes and ears, she would have thought she was dreaming.
After all, Shen Zhiwei has the powerful background of the Shen family of Jingzhou behind him, so there's no reason for him to be involved.
Qiao Lina remained highly vigilant.
She was also worried that Shen Zhiwei was up to something.
"Don't pretend. I don't believe you. Please leave immediately."
Shen Zhiwei was both angry and anxious when he heard this.
Even after all that, Jolina still harbored doubts and remained unfriendly towards him.
If he hadn't been afraid of the poison Ye Chen had given him, he would have dealt with the other party long ago.
This is an utter disgrace for Shen Zhiwei.
Despite his anger, Shen Zhiwei had to suppress it.
His immediate priority is to gain Qiao Lina's forgiveness, otherwise his life will be in danger.
“Miss Qiao, as long as you are willing to forgive me, I will agree to any request you make.”
Shen Zhiwei said, looking at the other person.
Qiao Lina was very surprised.
She felt that something must have happened, otherwise Shen Zhiwei wouldn't have been so humble.
"Shen Zhiwei, I want to know the truth." Qiao Lina stared at him warily.
"Sure, but I'd like to talk to you alone."
Shen Zhiwei thought for a moment, then looked at Qiao Lina and said.
"No, just say what you have to say." Lin Ruoxi immediately objected.
Lin Ruoxi could tell that there was a grudge between Qiao Lina and Shen Zhiwei.
Lin Ruoxi was worried that Shen Zhiwei would take the opportunity to harm Qiao Lina.
“Miss Qiao, these are the only things I can say to you,” Shen Zhiwei said again.
"Lina, don't believe him," Lin Ruoxi said urgently.
Qiao Lina thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Ruoxi.
"It's alright, Ruoxi. This is a hospital; he won't dare to do anything reckless. You can go out now."
Although Qiao Lina still didn't trust Shen Zhiwei, she decided to do this for the sake of the truth.
"Don't worry, Ruoxi, nothing will happen."
Seeing that Qiao Lina said this, Lin Ruoxi could no longer object.
"Okay, Lina, but if you need anything, just call me."
“Okay, Ruoxi, I will.” Qiao Lina nodded and said.
After Lin Ruoxi left the ward, Qiao Lina looked at Shen Zhiwei.
"It's just you and me here now, why are you doing this?"
"Because of Ye Chen," Shen Zhiwei said with a hint of resentment.
"Ye Chen?!" Qiao Lina was taken aback, staring at him in disbelief.
"You just mentioned Ye Chen. Did Ye Chen come to see you?"
"Yes," Shen Zhiwei replied truthfully.
Qiao Lina was shocked again; she never expected that Ye Chen would secretly contact Shen Zhiwei.
“Miss Qiao, I was wrong about what happened last time, and I apologize to you.”
"I will cover all the expenses, and I will also compensate you."
"I only ask that you forgive me, and I will grant all your requests."
To save his life, Shen Zhiwei said anything and everything.
Of course, Shen Zhiwei's actions were merely a delaying tactic.
Once he gets the antidote, he will definitely gather people to take revenge on Ye Chen.
As for Qiao Lina, Shen Zhiwei will not let her go either.
He would torment Qiao Lina mercilessly in front of Ye Chen, showing absolutely no mercy.
Qiao Lina was both shocked and confused.
She didn't know what methods Ye Chen had used to make Shen Zhiwei submit, and she felt worried.
"Miss Qiao, Ye Chen said he must get your forgiveness. Please forgive me this time."
Shen Zhiwei said, quite unwillingly.
Seeing Shen Zhiwei humbly begging for her forgiveness, Qiao Lina felt a complex mix of emotions.
Her heart remained unsettled for a long time.
Qiao Lina's feelings for Ye Chen changed once again.
Ye Chen had promised her he wouldn't get involved, but he still stood up for her.
Qiao Lina was deeply moved, and her feelings for Ye Chen grew even stronger.
