He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

Song Zhi sighed helplessly, slowly reached out, and gently pinched Fu Lu's ear.

He jokingly said, "Ninth Brother, why are you acting like a little kid?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Lu immediately turned his head, his sword-like eyebrows furrowed tightly, and glared at Song Zhi with displeasure, asking in a stiff tone, "You think I'm childish?"

Song Zhi: “…”

Suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, Song Zhi said, "No."

"When are we going to get the marriage certificate?"

Song Zhi sighed: "Why did you suddenly think of getting a marriage certificate?"

Without thinking, Attorney Fu blurted out, "I can't sleep soundly without a marriage certificate."

Song Zhi said sarcastically, "I think you slept quite soundly last night."

Fu Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Song Zhi with a resentful expression: "What? You don't want to?"

"Yes, yes."

"When?"

Song Zhi thought for a moment and then said, "Let's wait a while."

"How long is 'a while'? Song Xiaozhi, don't try to fool me."

"Oh, I'm not just trying to fool you. Let me check the date first and then tell my dad and grandma."

Fu Lu still didn't believe that Song Zhi hadn't been lying to him.

But I reminded him when the time came.

He'll have to choose an auspicious date; he'll go directly to his parents to check. Once they've decided, Song Zhi won't be able to keep up a pretense.

Thinking this way, Fu Lu felt much better, and even on the way to take Song Zhi to the hospital, he couldn't help but hum a little tune.

When they arrived at the hospital, Song Zhi saw Fu Lu get out of the car with her and asked with some confusion, "Aren't you going to the company?"

Fu Lu nodded: "Let's take care of things first."

"About Yinuo? It's alright, I'm with her, don't worry."

"It's not a promise."

Song Zhi looked puzzled: "What is that?"

Fu Lu smiled and remained silent, keeping everyone in suspense: "You'll find out when the time comes. Hurry up and go up."

Song Zhi wanted to ask more questions, but considering that Wei Yinuo was waiting for her, she didn't ask any more and went directly to Wei Yinuo's ward.

When Song Zhi hurried to the ward, she immediately saw Zhou Yan sitting quietly on a chair in the corridor.

A sense of surprise welled up in her heart, because seeing Zhou Yan at this time was truly unexpected.

Song Zhi strode forward and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

Upon hearing the voice, Zhou Yan slowly raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of fatigue.

Song Zhicai noticed that Zhou Yan was not in good condition; there was a noticeable dark circle under his eyes, clearly indicating that Zhou Yan had stayed up all night.

However, facing Song Zhi's concerned gaze, Zhou Yan could only force a smile and say softly, "I just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd stop by and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi frowned slightly and asked, "Since you're already here, why don't you go inside? What are you doing out here all by yourself?"

Zhou Yan simply shook his head slightly and remained silent.

Seeing Zhou Yan's expression, Song Zhi thought to herself: Is there something wrong with this guy? But she didn't ask any more questions and turned to Zhou Yan, saying, "If you're not going in, I'll go in first?"

Zhou Yan nodded.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Song Zhi didn't say anything more either, turned around, pushed open the door of the ward, and went in.

Besides Wei Yinuo lying in bed, Xu Ning was also carefully feeding her breakfast in the ward.

Upon seeing Song Zhi, Wei Yinuo's previously dim eyes instantly brightened, and a radiant smile bloomed on her face as she cheerfully exclaimed, "Auntie, you're here!"

Song Zhi smiled and nodded, then walked towards Wei Yinuo.

However, Wei Yinuo keenly noticed that Song Zhi's walking posture seemed a little off, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Auntie, did you sprain your ankle?"

Upon hearing Wei Yinuo's question, Song Zhi was slightly taken aback, then felt a sense of bewilderment and helplessness, and subconsciously replied, "No."

However, Wei Yinuo kept staring at Song Zhi's legs and said in a puzzled tone, "But why do I feel that the way you walk is a bit strange?"

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi felt as if her cheeks had been roasted by fire, burning hot.

She couldn't help but curse Fu Lu in her heart several times before stammering and explaining with an embarrassed expression, "Um... I did a little exercise last night, so my muscles are a bit sore today."

Wei Yinuo blinked her big eyes and asked thoughtfully, "Exercise? Aunt, do you want to lose weight?"

Song Zhi quickly nodded in agreement, replying, "Yes, that's right."

Unexpectedly, Wei Yinuo immediately shook her head and said, "Oh no, Auntie, you're not fat at all, why do you need to lose weight?"

Song Zhi quickly waved her hand and said with a smile, "It's not about losing weight, it's just about exercising to improve physical fitness."

After hearing this, Wei Yinuo nodded in relief and agreed, "Oh, I see. That's good."

Then, she turned to Xu Ning beside her and said, "Why don't you go back and rest for a while? Your aunt can stay here with me."

Xu Ning shook her head vigorously and said firmly, "No, I want to stay here with you."

Looking at the stubborn Xu Ning, Wei Yinuo sighed helplessly and softly advised, "Young Master, please, go back first. You can come back this afternoon."

However, no matter how Wei Yinuo tried to persuade her, Xu Ning remained unmoved and stubbornly insisted that she must stay and accompany him.

At this moment, Song Zhi suddenly realized that when taking a statement later, the police might ask some rather private questions, and it might not be convenient if Xu Ning was present.

So, with a gentle smile on her face, she softly said to Xu Ning, "Xiao Ning, I'll stay here with Nuonuo. You can go back and rest first, and come back this afternoon, okay?"

Xu Ning wanted to say something more, but Song Zhi interrupted her before she could finish: "Listen to me, go quickly, your brother is waiting outside, you go back with him."

Upon hearing that Zhou Yan was at the door of the ward, Wei Yinuo's expression shifted slightly, and a strange emotion seemed to well up in her heart.

Last night, she felt Zhou Yan was by her bedside. She thought it was a dream, but it turned out to be not.

What does he want to do?

Wei Yinuo was somewhat irritated.

Upon hearing that Xu Ning wasn't going back, he immediately exploded.

Are you trying to make a fool of yourself?

Xu Ning stared blankly at Wei Yinuo, who had suddenly become angry.

"A promise."

Wei Yinuo said in despair, "I've been violated, I'm disgusting, so don't stay here and get out of here."

Xu Ning was surprised that Wei Yinuo would say that about him. He was about to explain when Song Zhi pulled him back, saying, "Xiao Ning, go back first. Don't upset Nuonuo."

Hearing Song Zhi say this, Xu Ning gave in.

As he left, he looked at Wei Yinuo with some concern.

He had a lot to say to Wei Yinuo.

He wanted to say that he had never thought that way.

But when Xu Ning saw Wei Yinuo's tear-filled eyes, she panicked.

Before he could speak, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Wei Yinuo looked up.

Then Zhou Yan walked in with dark circles under his eyes...
