Gu Baiwei felt a chill run down her spine when she saw him staring dangerously at Ye Sinian.
Could it be that he knows Ye Sinian is Xia Shihhan's fiancé and wants to kill him to silence him?
After all, in the original story, anyone who even glanced at Xia Shih-Han twice would be severely punished by her subordinates.
She immediately became alert.
Shen Yanqing inadvertently met her gaze, her eyebrows furrowing tightly. Was her guarded expression because of the man in front of her?
"Miss Gu, and who is this?"
The question had barely left his mouth when the ward door was slammed open again.
Shen Yanqing frowned unhappily, his cold gaze falling on the newcomer, but he was taken aback.
It turned out to be Xia Shihhan, with Ye Chuyue looking anxious beside her.
Seeing Xia Shih-han, he suddenly realized that he should be trying to win her favor.
While she was still in a daze, Ye Chuyue had already squeezed next to Gu Baiwei: "How are you? Are you alright?"
When Gu Baiwei saw Ye Chuyue and Xia Shihhan enter together intimately, she suddenly thought of Ye Chuyue's unrequited love for Xia Shihhan in the novel, and her expression instantly became complicated.
Although she considered herself a fairly open-minded parent who could accept that her daughter's crush was of the same sex, if Ye Chuyue dared to use any means necessary to get Xia Shihan like in the original novel, she would definitely break her legs.
"Could it be that it damaged his brain?"
Seeing that she didn't react, Ye Chuyue tentatively placed her hand on her forehead.
Xia Shihhan, who was behind her, saw that Shen Yanqing was also in the room, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Mr. Shen, are you alright?"
Shen Yanqing smiled at her and said, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Xia. I'm fine."
Hearing the two talking so familiarly, Ye Sinian felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
This man just barged into the room out of nowhere, and now he acts like he knows Xia Shihhan very well. Who exactly is he?
He couldn't help but ask, "Shihan, who is this?"
Xia Shih-Han then remembered to introduce Shen Yan-Qing: "Mr. Shen, this is Ye Sinian... my fiancé."
When she said this, her gaze was only on Shen Yanqing, as if she didn't see Ye Sinian at all.
Upon learning that Ye Sinian was Xia Shih-han's fiancé, Shen Yanqing inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out she was Ye Sinian's aunt.
He wore his usual gentle smile: "Miss Xia, how are you feeling?"
One sentence immediately put the alarm bells in the ears of the two people present.
Xia Shih-Han was still angry about Ye Sinian abandoning her last time, and as if deliberately trying to provoke Ye Sinian, she replied softly, "Thanks to Mr. Shen, I am fine now."
Xia Shih-Han was unaware that Shen Yan-Qing had abandoned Gu Bai-Wei to save her.
One sentence made Shen Yanqing's face turn ugly.
Yes, he regretted it; he regretted leaving Gu Baiwei there alone.
But it's too late to say anything now.
He subconsciously looked at Gu Baiwei, who noticed his gaze and gave him a polite smile.
While Shen Yanqing felt a sense of relief, she also felt a vague unease.
Because he doesn't care, does that mean it doesn't matter if he abandons her?
His hands, which were at his sides, slowly tightened. At that moment, the bodyguard who had been guarding outside the door cautiously poked his head out: "Sir, your wound needs a dressing change."
Shen Yanqing's cold gaze swept over the bodyguards in black.
The burly man, over six feet tall, was so intimidated by that gaze that he dared not even breathe.
Gu Baiwei had a sudden inspiration; now was the perfect time to get Shen Yanqing out of the way.
She said with concern, "Mr. Shen, your wound is bleeding. You should get it treated."
Meeting her concerned gaze, Shen Yanqing's heart stirred slightly. She cared about him; otherwise, why would she have noticed his injury?
The coldness in his eyes vanished instantly, replaced by his usual gentle expression.
Seeing his boss change his mood in a second, the bodyguard in black finally relaxed, almost thinking he was about to be killed.
The unlucky guy who knocked the boss unconscious yesterday has just been sent to Africa to experience life there.
Shen Yanqing waved goodbye in high spirits: "Miss Gu, Miss Xia, I'm leaving now. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything."
After speaking, he glanced meaningfully at Ye Sinian with his narrow eyes, then turned and left.
Ye Sinian, Ye Chuyue?
Are we invisible to each other?
Only after Shen Yanqing left did Gu Baiwei's tense heart finally relax; this man's oppressive aura was simply too strong.
"Auntie, if there's nothing else, I'll head back to school now."
Because of what happened yesterday, Xia Shihhan didn't want to spend another second with Ye Sinian.
He received a phone call yesterday, but without even explaining, he simply left her there and walked away. Now that I think about it, he probably just didn't care about her.
She was as excited as she was when they first got engaged, and now she's just as heartbroken.
Gu Baiwei quickly winked at Ye Sinian: "Niannian, go and deliver Shihan quickly."
"Auntie, no need. Si Nian is busy with work. I can take a taxi myself."
As Xia Shihhan was speaking, she turned to leave, when Ye Sinian's deep voice suddenly came from behind her: "I'm not in a hurry, I'll take you home."
The pleasant voice stirred Xia Shihhan's heart, and the words of refusal stuck in her throat, unable to be uttered.
It's not so easy to let go of someone you've liked for many years.
She remained silent for a moment, then walked out without saying a word, and Ye Sinian immediately followed behind her with long strides.
Ye Chuyue turned her head curiously to look over, and only looked away when the two figures disappeared through the doorway.
Turning around, she met Gu Baiwei's bright eyes.
"W-what's wrong?"
What do you think of Shih-Han?
