Hong Kong is in full swing

Although only two days had passed, his once handsome face had lost its former luster and became extremely haggard, pale and weak.

After secretly glancing outside the door and finding that no one was paying attention to what was happening here, Shangguan Lan, feeling a little calmer, mustered up the courage to gently grasp Wei Size's exposed, slightly cold fingertips.

Suddenly, she felt the strength in her hand seemed to change, which scared her so much that she quickly let go of her hand.

"what happened?"

Wei Jingqing's concerned and inquiring voice could be faintly heard from outside through the crack in the door.

"nothing."

Shangguan Lan tried to keep her tone steady as she replied, "I just felt my arm was a little stiff and wanted to move it a little bit."

After getting the explanation, Wei Jingqing did not pursue the matter any further and continued to concentrate on talking with Meng Mingfei.

After returning to her seat, Shangguan Lan stared at Wei Size's exposed fingers and hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to hold that still extremely cold hand again. Deep in her palm, she silently prayed that she wanted to convey warm strength and support to him.

"Wei Size..."

She whispered, "I really like you."

Every word seemed to come from the heart, gentle and sincere.

As if hearing her voice, Wei Size opened his mouth slightly and made a slight sound.

His lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

She hurried closer to listen, her heart filled with anticipation and nervousness.

She hoped to hear his response, even just a few simple words.

But I only heard him shouting.

"Yu Wan..."

The voice seemed to come from far away, calling the name over and over again.

At this moment, the blood in her body instantly turned cold, and her heart seemed to be frozen by a chill.

Shangguan Lan bit her lips tightly with her teeth, and her nails almost dug into her palms.

Her heart was filled with pain and anger, and she could not accept this fact.

She felt her heart breaking, crying with every cell in her body.

"What kind of magic potion did she give you? You're talking about her even in your dreams!"

There was a strong hint of jealousy in her words, as if a sharp knife was slashing across her chest.

"Just a little illegitimate daughter!"

She spoke through gritted teeth, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, full of hatred.

"Did she seduce you?!"

Her tone became more intense, and her eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger.

The only response she got was Wei Size's frowning call.

"Yu Wan..."

The name echoed in his mouth repeatedly, like an invisible sword piercing her heart.

Shangguan Lan's hands were shaking, and her whole body was as stiff as a piece of iron.

Her fingers unconsciously clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into the flesh, blood seeping out but she was unaware.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of her for you!"

She said this through gritted teeth, the cold light in her eyes making people's heart palpitate.

At this moment, she had made up her mind that no matter what the cost, she would make that woman pay the price she deserved.

At this moment, the door opened. Wei Jingqing and Meng Mingfei looked at her in surprise, "So soon..."

They didn't expect things to develop to this point and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"boom!"

She threw the protective suit heavily into the trash can, not hiding her anger.

The atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became solemn.

The two men immediately shut up and just stared at her silently, with an indescribable sympathy and confusion in their eyes.

Shangguan Lan fought back tears and said in a firm voice, "Something urgent has happened. I'll be leaving first."

She forced herself to remain calm, not wanting anyone to see her vulnerable side.

"Oh……"

Wei Jingqing and Meng Mingfei responded but didn't know how to comfort her.

Her figure quickly disappeared, leaving only an empty room and silence.

The footsteps outside the door gradually faded away and finally dissipated into the air.

Meng Mingfei frowned.

What's going on again?

She was full of questions and didn't understand why things turned out like this.

When Huo Shuyan came back in the evening, he exuded the scent of cypress.

When he got closer, the fresh fragrance hit his face, making him feel soothed.

Yu Wan smelled it, sniffing around with her little nose.

Her curiosity was satisfied and she couldn't help but want to ask more questions.

Huo Shuyan gently teased her chin and said with a smile, "Turn into a puppy?"

His smile was gentle and warm, and it made her feel at ease.

Yu Wan simply rested her chin on his hand, and Huo Shuyan opened his palm to support her.

This close contact made the relationship between the two people closer.

"Mr. Huo went to pay his respects, right?"

She asked softly, her words full of care and understanding.

Huo Shuyan nodded, "Your nose is really sensitive."

He looked at her with admiration and thought that the little girl was really smart.

Yu Wan explained, "Wei Size usually burns incense in the gallery. I'm familiar with this scent."

Smell it often and remember it naturally, she added in her heart.

Mentioning Wei Size, Huo Shuyan slowly said, "He's fine now. The doctor estimates he'll wake up in the next two days. Have you visited him recently?"

"Ah."

Yu Wan nodded, rubbing her chin gently against his palm, and replied, "I went there once yesterday afternoon."

Thinking of how weak he looked that day, Yu Wan always felt a little distressed.

She couldn't help but hugged Huo Shuyan's waist and said softly, "Brother Huo, you must take good care of yourself."

"Don't let yourself get hurt."

These words seemed to be spoken to herself, but were also instructions to Huo Shuyan.

Huo Shuyan gently stroked her hair with one hand and said softly but firmly, "You should also pay more attention to your own safety."

In fact, he wanted to tell Yu Wan so much that the moment he learned that she was in trouble, the anxiety and fear in his heart almost swallowed him up.

The unprecedented fear and worry were even more suffocating than when he himself was facing life-threatening danger.

It was not until that moment when he saw Wei Size lying unconscious on the hospital bed that the chill in his heart slowly subsided.

At least, she wasn't the one who got hurt.

Fortunately, it was Wei Size who was injured.

It's not the one you love most.

At this moment, Huo Shuyan put one arm around Yu Wan's slender shoulders and slowly embraced her in his broad and powerful arms, as if to prove in this way that he had an unspeakable sense of responsibility for this baby.

It's like expressing this message through actions - I will use all my ability to protect the person most precious to me.

He bent down and whispered in her ear: "You know what? I absolutely cannot lose you."

Yu Wan suddenly felt her heart beating faster and her mind went blank. For a moment she didn't know how to respond.

Such emotion goes beyond the level of consideration that a simple sponsor should have.
