After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.

With his back to her, he slowly asked, his voice carrying an undeniable chill: "What did you say?"

Her eyes were filled with a defiant determination, and her words remained resolute without a trace of weakness: "Han Xin is already divorced, and you two can get back together. What are you doing back here? To interfere in my life?"

He slowly turned around and walked towards her step by step, each step striking a nerve with their tense hearts.

When he reached her, he looked directly into her eyes, his gaze filled with seriousness and incomprehension, and said, "I never intended to marry Xin Xin from the beginning. I only brought her home because of her family's background and circumstances. Do you think I wanted her to become a homeless person?"

She responded with a cold laugh, her eyes already brimming with tears, which she forcefully held back: "Even so, haven't you ever thought about having children with Han Xin? Now that everything has returned to normal, why bother disturbing my peaceful life anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Li Siyuan's facial expression changed drastically, as if he had lost his usual calm and composure due to the burning anger. He was clearly extremely dissatisfied with and intolerant of her stubborn stance.

He stared intently at her, the pain in his heart like a knife cutting into him, and said in an extremely impatient tone, "Xin Xin never thought of taking you from me. Until now, we haven't heard from her at all. As her friend, do you really not care about her safety at all? You're even willing to give your own life to save someone who wants to kill you, but you're not willing to accept Xin Xin as your sister?"

She gave a cold smile, a smile filled with endless desolation and helplessness.

He is still the same man, the one who would give up everything without hesitation to go abroad and bring Han Xin back to China.

He also hoped that he could tolerate all of this and make her suffer such pain again.

At that moment, she decided to stop appearing weak and helpless, and instead hid all the sadness deep inside her. Then she gave him the order to leave: "I really don't want to discuss these things with you here. I hope you leave now. I need to rest."

Li Siyuan clenched his fists, his anger evident on his face. He glared at her fiercely before walking out without looking back.

From the very beginning, he had been extremely worried about her health, almost to the point of collapse. He never expected that these few words would so easily break his heart.

Whenever the topic of Han Xin comes up, an invisible barrier seems to form between them, and their hearts grow further and further apart as a result.

This puzzled Li Siyuan greatly. He couldn't understand why Shen Xuan could forgive others for hurting her, but couldn't forgive him for the moment he wronged her.

Just as Gao Jing strode into the ward, she ran into Li Siyuan, who had just come out of the room.

She gently raised her head, her gaze meeting his directly, but upon seeing his angry expression, she instinctively lowered her head.

Even when he's angry, does this guy still look so charming?

What exactly is your purpose in coming here?

Suddenly, Li Siyuan glared at Gao Jing with displeasure and asked in a cold voice.

When she heard the other person speak to her, Gao Jing was stunned for a few seconds. This was the first time this man had spoken to her on his own initiative. For a moment, she felt her heart pounding wildly like a deer.

"I came here specifically to check on Sister Xiaoxuan's situation."

She answered cautiously.

Her eyes darted away, cautiously peering over his shoulder at Shen Xuan, who lay pale on the bed.

The person in the hospital bed looked so weak; it was heartbreaking.

Li Siyuan, who was seething with anger, said to Gao Jing irritably, "She's already come back to life, does she need anyone else's concern?"

Her tone was full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if it were all Shen Xuan's fault.

He spoke loudly on purpose, as if afraid that Shen Xuan, who was lying in the hospital bed, wouldn't hear him.

After saying that, for some reason, he took Gao Jing's hand and left the ward without looking back, leaving behind the heavy sound of the door closing and a room full of silence.

"Sir, you're just leaving like this? What will happen to Miss Shen?"

The nurse followed anxiously behind him, her voice filled with helplessness and worry.

She knew that Li Siyuan was in a bad mood, but she also knew that now was not a good time to abandon the patient.

"Let her be!"

Li Siyuan coldly uttered these words and continued walking out.

These four words were like a cold dagger, piercing the hearts of everyone present and sending a chill down their spines.

But he showed no sign of stopping, as if he had made up his mind not to turn back.

Shen Xuan bit her lip so hard that she almost broke the skin, tears welling up in her eyes.

As she listened to that cold voice coming from the corridor, her heart ached as if it were being repeatedly pierced by countless fine needles, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

why?

Why treat yourself this way?

Now that she has decided not to disturb his and Han Xin's lives anymore, what else is there to make her so sad?

Shen Xuan, you must pull yourself together!

Don't let yourself fall into despair again!

She wiped away her tears, forced herself to sit down, and tried to find something in her coat pocket to ease her inner pain.

Unintentionally, my fingers touched a small, dark green object—a thumb ring.

I took it out of my pocket and stared at it quietly for a while.

This thumb ring was a gift that Chan Sau-man secretly gave her before she passed away. Perhaps it signifies an acknowledgment and forgiveness of the past?

She slowly shifted her gaze to the phone on the bedside table, then gently picked it up to examine it.

It turns out that Lu Yuchen did make a call during the chaos, but he simply didn't hear the phone vibrate in the emergency.

Thinking of this, her eyes filled with self-reproach and sadness.

If we had discovered it sooner, we might have been able to get there in time to see him one last time...

But it's too late to say anything now.

The inability to save Lu Yuchen's mother must have been a huge blow to her.

Despite being filled with anger as he followed Gao Jing out of the hospital, once they reached the bottom of the stairs, Li Siyuan suddenly realized that leaving the ailing Shen Xuan alone in the room was not a wise move.

Although I felt a lot of dissatisfaction and blame towards her, I couldn't bear to see such a helpless girl all alone facing the cold wall.

Therefore, after some struggle, he returned to the elevator entrance, ready to go upstairs again to check the situation.

Gao Jing watched his departing figure, her face filled with disappointment and loss.

A hint of sadness flickered in her eyes, as if all her expectations had been shattered at that moment.
