Who is the white moonlight these days? We are just following the plot

Chapter 192

A subtle tense atmosphere spread throughout the small ward.

Emperor Gao Yan has been in power for a long time and has his own aura of authority. Shi Yubai is young after all and his aura is a little weaker. However, he has been an actor for so long and has played the roles of generals, princes, and domineering CEOs, so he does not show any fear on his face.

Wen Yuan could naturally see the inexplicable confrontation between the two. According to common sense, she should introduce the two to each other, but on second thought, Wen Yuan felt that it was unnecessary.

There is no need for two people who have absolutely nothing in common to become friends.

The ward was very quiet and none of the four people spoke.

The atmosphere is a little weird.

Most people would visit a patient, chat for a while, and then leave. But Gao Yan and Shi Yubai were glued to their stools, neither of them willing to leave first.

Ji Xingyao and Wen Yuan looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with these two people? Why did they refuse to leave?

"It's getting brighter, it's getting brighter." Ji Xingyao couldn't stand this awkward atmosphere, so she broke the silence.

Her voice was so soft that even she couldn't hear it clearly. Shi Yubai turned his head as if he had eyes on the back of his head.

"what happened?"

He knew that Ji Xingyao had a bad throat, so he came to her side, bent down slightly and listened attentively.

"If you're busy, go back first."

Uh……

Shi Yubai's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't expect Ji Xingyao to ask him to leave.

He didn't want to put Ji Xingyao in a difficult position, so he had no choice but to agree.

"I'll come see you again this afternoon. What do you want to eat in the evening? I'll bring it over."

Ji Xingyao blinked. She felt that something was wrong with Shi Yubai because what he said just now was not like the proper conversation between colleagues. It was a bit too intimate.

"No need to bother." Ji Xingyao refused subconsciously.

She had no other intentions, she simply didn't want to trouble Shi Yubai. With Wen Yuan around, she didn't have to worry about food and drink.

"It's not a problem. Director Yang told me that the crew will have three days off, so I will be free during these three days." Shi Yubai said reasonably.

Having said that, Ji Xingyao couldn't refuse anymore.

In some matters, those involved are often confused, while those who are watching can see clearly.

Wen Yuan and Gao Yan, two bystanders, both saw what Shi Yubai was thinking.

Of course, these two bystanders also have their own thoughts.

Wen Yuan was happy for Ji Xingyao, but he was also observing Shi Yubai to see if he was a reliable person.

Gao Yan was angry on behalf of Gao Yu and felt that he couldn't stand this pretty boy in front of him at all.

Suddenly, Gao Yan stood up.

"I go first."

Wen Yuan smiled imperceptibly: "Goodbye, I won't see you off."

When Gao Yan's footsteps disappeared in the corridor, Ji Xingyao breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, she always felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness when facing Gao Yan.

Perhaps it was because when she saw him, she always thought of Gao Yu, who bought her apartment in the capital.

To this day, she has never met Gao Yu once. Every time she meets Gao Yan, she is afraid that she will see Gao Yu in the next second.

When she left Taifeng Dynasty, her last words to Li Heng were: "Never see you again."

So, she didn't want to see him.

Just as Ji Xingyao was lost in thought, Shi Yubai couldn't help but smile. He said, "Can I leave later?"

"Shi Xiao, please stay a little longer and get some fruit for Xingyao." Wen Yuan answered for Ji Xingyao.

"Okay, I'll go wash the fruit."

Shi Yubai's mood became unusually good. He picked a few fruits and happily went to the bathroom to wash them.

Ji Xingyao lowered her head and looked at the yellow brocade bag in her hand. She squeezed it and found the hard jade buckle lying quietly inside.

"Ayuan, what should we do with this thing?"

The thing Gao Yan took out was of inestimable value. Ji Xingyao didn't want to accept it for no reason and owe him a favor.

If it was a day ago, Wen Yuan would definitely not agree to accept it, but Ji Xingyao had just had an accident yesterday, so she felt that she could keep it.

Although Wen Yuan is not superstitious, the peace jade buckle delivered to his door is indeed a good omen, and it may really keep Ji Xingyao safe.

"Keep it for now, to get rid of the bad smell."

"Okay, it's up to you."

In the parking lot of Lin City Hospital, Gao Yan got into the Jaguar. Gao Yu, who had been waiting in the passenger seat for a long time, couldn't wait to ask, "How is Xingyao?"

Gao Yan lit a cigarette and took a deep puff irritably: "It's nothing serious, just get some rest."

Gao Yu's tense nerves relaxed.

He lowered his head and looked at his right hand.

Yesterday, in the heavy rain, he held Ji Xingyao's hand tightly.

The mountain road was muddy and the sky was dark, but it was the first time in five years that he and Ji Xingyao were so close.

The rainstorm is sweet, the mountain road is bright, it would be great if we could just keep going.

However, no matter how difficult the road is, there will always be a time when it reaches the end.

No matter how reluctant he was, he had to let go.

Ji Xingyao needs treatment, and he can't selfishly force her to stay by his side.

"Never see you again" was Ji Xingyao's curse to him.

He was not worthy to stand before her openly, nor did he dare to beg for her charity.

The sour and bitter taste spreads on the tongue.

Fortunately, he made the peace jade buckle specifically for Ji Xingyao and had it blessed by a high monk, so she accepted it.

He hopes that the peace jade buckle can become a talisman to protect Ji Xingyao for him.

"Ayu." Gao Yan leaned back in his chair, white smoke slowly puffing out of his mouth. "Who is Shi Yubai?"

Gao Yu's eyebrows jumped when he heard the name.

He raised his hand and pressed his temple, his voice very deep: "Xingyao's sweetheart in the play."

"In the play?" Gao Yan sneered: "It's not that simple. Shi Yubai likes Xingyao."

Having this matter exposed so nakedly by his elder brother was like peeling off a layer of skin from Gao Yu.

He would rather curl up in a dark corner and lick his wounds at night than expose them to the daylight.

His Adam's apple trembled violently, and Gao Yu had to admit a fact: "She... is free. She can choose someone else."

Gao Yan turned around and scolded her fiercely, "You're constantly bleeding from my heart, even at the risk of contracting a cold, just to come here. Are you willing to watch her fall in love with someone else?"

Gao Yu's chest heaved violently from his rapid breathing. He held his head in his hands, fingers tangled in his black hair, and said painfully, "Of course I'm unwilling to accept this, but there's nothing I can do. I owe her too much, and even giving up my life won't make up for it. If...if she chooses Shi Yubai, there's nothing I can do."

More importantly, Gao Yu did not say it out loud.

He felt his life slipping away.

He can feel it every day in this world.

He was suffering from cold and blindness, and every attack came without any warning. How could he protect Ji Xingyao for his whole life?

Gao Yan bit the cigarette holder, leaving a deep tooth mark. "Is Shi Yubai worthy of her?"

"No, in my heart, no one is worthy of her."

The car was silent for a long time, and finally Gao Yan started the car: "Come back to Hai City with me."

"I'm not going. Wherever Xingyao is, I'll be there."

"She may not even know you exist, so what's the point of doing more?"

"I am willing."

Gao Yu raised his head, his eyes bloodshot: "Brother, I want you to take Xiaochuan to see the emperor's wife now, do you agree?"

Gao Yan looked ahead indifferently—he disagreed!
