At this point…

Yuan Luochen still wanted to pretend to be innocent and said, “Mr. Lu, is there some misunderstanding between us? We don’t have any grudges, so why do you have to make such a big fuss to deal with me?”

“Pretend, continue pretending. Yan Ruo, all your bodyguards told the truth. Yuan Luochen, I don’t even believe a single word you say,” Lu Zhi coldly exposed his lie.

“I’m really not pretending. 1 came here because 1 heard that something happened to Yan Ruo. She’s the Top manga author that my company just signed. I can’t just leave her alone.” Yuan Luochen said, “Did Yan Ruo do something bad to your wife again? This bastard… Later, I will definitely teach her a good lesson and give you and Young Madam Lu a satisfactory explanation!”

“Mr. Lu, we shouldn’t ruin the relationship between our two families because of Yan Ruo. Please give me a hand.”

The last sentence was to remind Lu Zhi to consider the Yuan family.

But Lu Zhi wasn’t afraid at all!

He even dared to fight with his family friend, the Tao family, so how could he take the Yuan family seriously?

Lu Zhi’s pitch-black eyes were fixed on Yuan Luochen without saying a word.

Yuan Luochen thought that he had listened to his advice.

He was about to crawl back.

However, Lu Zhi took out a knife and ruthlessly stabbed the back of his hand.

Yuan Luochen’s expression changed in pain, but he still held it in and didn’t make a sound.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

“Mr. Lu, what do you mean? Are you going to declare war on me and the Yuan family?”

“You are not worthy of being my opponent. You don’t even have the right to make me declare war.” Lu Zhi’s tone was filled with contempt. “Yuan Luochen, 1 will tell your father everything you’ve done. If your father finds out the truth and still insists on being enemies with my Lu family, then 1 can only accompany him to the end.”

Yuan Luochen’s facial muscles twitched abnormally. “Lu Zhi, you’re too arrogant.”

It was fine if he didn’t put him in his eyes, but he actually didn’t put the entire Yuan family in his eyes?

Who did he think he was?

“That’s right, I’m that arrogant. But I have the right to be arrogant.” After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he reached out and pulled out the knife expressionlessly.

Blood instantly gushed out of Yuan Luochen’s hands.

He couldn’t hold on any longer and fell off the wall.

He landed right in the net.

The people below quickly retracted the net and trapped him.

Lu Zhi calmly ordered, “Ah Man, send him to Yan Ruo’s room and let them enjoy the consequences of their actions.”

“Yes, sir.”

Ah Man nodded.

Lu Zhi came out of the hotel and instructed Qi Feng to gather all the media in A-City early tomorrow morning to expose Yuan Luochen and Yan Ruo.

Qi Feng complied.

Lu Zhi got into the car and headed home.

In the hospital.

Ye Xiaoxi poured a glass of water and sat in front of the bed. She then placed it by Yuan Xudong’s mouth and said, “Drink it.”

Yuan Xudong in his sleep seemed to understand her words and took a few sips.

She waited for him to finish the glass of water.

Ye Xiaoxi put the cup back and leaned against his bed to play with her phone.

Unknowingly, it was already late at night.

Ye Xiaoxi felt a little cold, so she crawled onto the sofa and covered herself with a blanket.

She yawned and prepared to rest.

However, she heard Yuan Xudong mumbling something.

Ye Xiaoxi dragged her exhausted body up and walked up to him again.

She leaned over and listened to him seriously.

“Mother… Don’t… Don’t hit me…”

“Go away, you dirty woman… You’re not my mother…”

“Father…”

The words he said were intermittent, making it difficult for others to understand what he meant.

Ye Xiaoxi touched his forehead. It was so hot that it could fry an egg.

As expected, he was muddled from the fever.

Ye Xiaoxi pressed the emergency bell.

Not long after, the doctor and nurse came in and carefully diagnosed him. “He has a high fever, but he just had a gastric lavage, so it’s not suitable to give him medication. Let’s try physical cooling first, and if he doesn’t improve by tomorrow morning, we’ll consider intravenous therapy.”

“Okay, thank you, doctor.”

The doctor prescribed a fever patch for him.

Then, he left.

Ye Xiaoxi applied one to Yuan Xudong and sighed, “Uncle, you’ll have to thank me for taking such good care of you in the future.”

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Ye Xiaoxi dared not sleep for too long and estimated the time.

When the fever relief paste lost its coolness, she seized the opportunity to replace it for him.

Gradually…

The dense darkness of the night faded, and the sun gradually rose from the horizon.

The faint golden sunlight shone on the ground.

Yuan Xudong’s body temperature finally returned to normal.

Ye Xiaoxi, who hadn’t slept the whole night, felt foggy in her mind, and her eyes were dark circles.

She nodded her head bit by bit and didn’t hold on for long.

With a soft thud.

She lay on the side of the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Yuan Xudong felt the pain. He slowly opened his eyes and saw where he was.

He subconsciously struggled to sit up. However, the slightest movement pulled at his wound.

He lay back down.

He turned his head and noticed that someone was sleeping beside him.

He was stunned.

Then, he looked over.

He could tell that it was Ye Xiaoxi.

Yuan Xudong was smart enough to know that it was Jiang Yining who had informed Ye Xiaoxi to take care of him.

He felt a sense of relaxation.

He wanted to wake her up and let her sleep on the bed.

However, when his gaze fell on her tired expression, he endured it.

The ward was exceptionally quiet.

He could only hear the rustling of the wind and her light breathing.

Yuan Xudong stared at Ye Xiaoxi’s calm face for a long time, his gaze complex.

In the end, he pursed his lips.

He gently raised his hand and caressed her round cheeks.

“Fool.”

He had clearly warned her not to get too close to him.

Why did she still take the initiative to approach him every time?

Sooner or later, she would get hurt because of this.

Yuan Xudong’s heart, which had been frozen for many years, trembled slightly as his fingertips brushed past her lips.

After pausing for a full two seconds, he suddenly withdrew his hand..
