There was a knock on the door, three well-spaced knocks, restrained yet polite.
Lin Yitang looked at Wen Hangxing, "Are Xiaosui and the others here?"
Wen Hangxing stood up and walked towards the door, "I'll go open the door."
As soon as he opened the door, a familiar face appeared, and Wen Hangxing's face instantly darkened.
"What a coincidence, Hangxing."
Ye Shangyu was wearing a white shirt and black suit pants, his hair fell softly on his cheeks, he was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands, looking at Wen Hangxing with a smile on his face.
Wen Hangxing pulled back the door handle and tried to close the door, but was stopped by a strong force.
Ye Shangyu grabbed the door handle with his right hand and said, "Hangxing, I'm here to see Aunt Lin."
Although there was a smile in his eyes, there was also a subtle warning in his eyes.
Will Wen Hangxing be afraid?
Of course not.
He hooked his wrist inward and pressed down hard, and Ye Shangyu's hand was pressed in the middle of the door.
"I told you before not to play tricks, but it seems you didn't listen at all."
Ye Shangyu's fair face turned red because of the pain. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hangxing, is this your idea or Aunt Lin's? You shouldn't be able to make the decision."
Wen Hangxing's expression became even darker.
Seeing him like this, Ye Shangyu laughed secretly in his heart, and became more certain of his initial guess. His expression instantly turned cold when Mrs. Wen was mentioned. It seemed that the two of them really didn't get along.
Thinking of this, Ye Shangyu calmed down and became a little more arrogant when dealing with things. "Can you please move aside?"
Wen Hangxing did not continue to move.
Ye Shangyu knew that he was concerned about the people in the house, so he didn't dare to move. He leaned over and called out, "Aunt Lin, I'm Ye Shangyu. I heard you were sick, so I came to visit you."
Lin Yitang's expression changed slightly, and he shouted, "Please come in."
Ye Shangyu looked at Wen Hangxing who was obviously frozen, reached out to push away his hand that was blocking him, and walked in.
When passing by Wen Hangxing, she curled her lips and smiled.
When Ye Shangyu entered, he first looked at the decoration around the ward. He paused when he glanced at the lunch box on the table that had not been cleared away yet, and finally moved his gaze to Lin Yitong lying on the hospital bed.
Showing just the right smile, Ye Shangyu looked at Lin Yitang neither servile nor arrogant, "I heard that Aunt Lin was injured last night, so I took the liberty to come visit you today. I brought a small gift, I hope Aunt Lin doesn't mind."
After listening to these words, Lin Yitang looked at the young man in front of her who looked very worried, and felt that this man was really thoughtful. If she didn't know his true face, even she would have been deceived into thinking that he was a truly simple and humble boy.
Although you see through people, you still have to give them face. This is what adults call decency.
Lin Yitang replied indifferently: "Thank you for your thought, Xiaoye. I like it very much."
How could Ye Shangyu not hear the alienation in her words, but he didn't care. After all, he came here today to discuss more important things.
Ye Shangyu was not in a hurry and sat down beside Lin Yitang's bed. "Aunt Lin, what happened to you last night? Why did you suddenly go to the hospital?"
Lin Yitang glanced at him, without revealing his thoughts, and simply said, "I was harassed. I thought you knew."
Ye Shangyu's face darkened slightly, but then he smiled softly, not refutating. "I did hear some rumors, but it's hard to tell whether they're true or not. I only know that you were sent to the hospital. I didn't expect it to be for such a reason. Aunt Lin is so beautiful, so naturally there are some people with ill intentions who would try to get close to her. You should bring a few more bodyguards with you when you go out in the future, so that those with ulterior motives won't take advantage of you."
As he said this, Ye Shangyu glanced at Wen Hangxing, but looked away in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yitang: “…”
Nothing was said, but it seemed like everything was said.
How could Wen Hangxing not understand what he meant?
But he had no time to care about him, and just looked at Lin Yitang anxiously again.
Lin Yitang held his forehead helplessly. Well, this kid is starting to make a big deal out of it again. I have to coax him again.
Lin Yitang's tone was gentle and clear, "It's okay, Hangxing will stay by my side and won't let me suffer such a thing again."
"Really?" Ye Shangyu's smile faded slightly, and he pretended to be surprised: "But I heard from other sources that it was because of you, Hangxing, that last night..."
Lin Yitang's face was cold. "You said it was other news. Maybe someone deliberately spread it to alienate us mother and son. Xiaoye, you know that the Wen family is now quite powerful. There are many eyes on us outside. There are many people who want to bring unrest to our family. Hangxing and I should get along harmoniously to avoid being exploited by those with bad intentions. What do you think?"
Ye Shangyu couldn't help laughing. He always felt that this woman was hinting at him. However, facing Lin Yitang's sincere face, Ye Shangyu forced a smile and nodded, "You are right."
Lin Yitang withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, and then said earnestly, "I heard that you have a good relationship with our Hangxing. I think you are also quite appreciated by the old man. I believe you are a smart child, and I know that you are wholeheartedly for the Wen family. But you need to be more discerning in the future. Don't believe anything that is detrimental to the harmony of the Wen family, and don't say it in front of our family. What outsiders say is outsiders' business. Our family just wants to live a peaceful and stable life and doesn't want to get involved in too many things. Some things can be left to Hangxing's father to handle."
Ye Shangyu was shocked and looked at Lin Yitong with scrutiny. Did she mean that she knew what he had done?
Lin Yitang was as steady as a mountain and let him look at her.
Suppressing the dense thoughts in his mind, Ye Shangyu nodded in response, "It's my fault, Aunt Lin. It's mainly because I was too worried about you, and I was also afraid that Hangxing would have a rift with you because of this, so I said that. I understand what you said today, and I will keep it in my heart."
Lin Yitang: "Very good, then I feel relieved."
Ye Shangyu sat in the ward for over twenty minutes, with no other movements except for chatting with Lin Yitang. Wen Hangxing couldn't stand it anymore, and when Ye Shangyu started talking to Lin Yitang again, he said, "Don't you have anything else to do? Why don't you leave?"
Ye Shangyu glanced at the time and said to Wen Hangxing, "I've taken a day off today, so I want to spend more time with Aunt Lin."
After looking at Lin Yitang, he hesitated and said, "But Hangxing, you haven't been to class these few days, and you haven't asked for leave. Everyone is worried about you, especially Teacher Wang."
Wen Hangxing sneered in his heart. He wanted to suppress him through this? It was useless.
The next second, the cell phone rang rapidly. Wen Hangxing took a look and saw that it was a call from his teacher.
Wen Hangxing could feel the lion roar of the middle-aged nun Miejue through the phone screen, and he shrank his shoulders uncontrollably.
Wen Hangxing cursed under his breath, "You crow's mouth."
