The entire ward fell eerily quiet, utterly silent except for Yan Shanshan's heartbreaking sobs. Gu Beichen and Jiang Shao were both startled by this sudden scene; their eyes widened in astonishment as they stared at Yan Shanshan kneeling on the floor.

How did she suddenly appear here? We clearly told her not to come along!

Yan Shanshan had insisted on coming with them to apologize to Shen Chumo, but Jiang Shao and Gu Beicheng both felt it was inappropriate. After all, the reason the two families broke off the engagement was because of her, and Shen Chumo would definitely not give Yan Shanshan a friendly look.

But who would have thought that Yan Shanshan would ignore their advice and secretly follow them?

Furthermore, she said some baffling things here. What does "it's all for her" mean? Isn't that implying that Gu Beicheng is very fond of Yan Shanshan, and even willing to hurt Shen Chumo for her sake?

Madam Shen trembled with rage, her face ashen as she pointed at Yan Shanshan and said, "So that's why Mo Mo suddenly wanted to break off the engagement with your family! It turns out you two betrayed the engagement long ago and were flirting with vixens outside! Jiang Shao! How dare you ask my Mo Mo to forgive you and let Gu Beicheng take care of Mo Mo? Bah! Everyone from the Gu family, get out of here!"

Jiang Shao stepped forward awkwardly, wanting to explain: "Madam Shen, this is just a misunderstanding. They were just playing house, they're not really together. Beicheng, don't you think so?"

After saying that, she winked at Gu Beichen, signaling him to cooperate with her quickly.

At this moment, Gu Beichen was furious because Yan Shanshan had suddenly barged in. Originally, he liked Yan Shanshan because he liked her pure, kind, and unyielding spirit towards the powerful.

However, after Gu Beicheng was beaten, Yan Siming and Su Jingyu both came to see him that afternoon. After the three of them talked, Gu Beicheng realized that he had indeed misunderstood Shen Chumo.

Gu Beichen suddenly realized that Yan Shanshan had been deliberately crying and saying that Shen Chumo had bullied her, which was why he was so angry. Yan Shanshan was using him as a pawn.

Even so, Gu Beichen did not give up on Yan Shanshan. Perhaps it was because Yan Shanshan was too afraid of losing him that she spoke without thinking.

But now, Gu Beichen has clearly told Yan Shanshan that she doesn't need to come to the hospital. Yan Shanshan agreed on the surface, but secretly followed them here and even barged in to say these words.

Gu Beichen's idealized image of Yan Shanshan had completely shattered. What innocent little girl? She's even more adept at using tricks than he is.

Ignoring Yan Shanshan's pleading gaze, Gu Beichen looked at Shen Chumo and said, "Yes, my relationship with Yan is just a joke between classmates. I really like someone else."

Gu Beichen looked at Shen Chumo with deep affection, but her pig-headed face was such an eyesore that it made people feel nauseous.

Shen Chumo turned her head away and looked out the window, which made Gu Beichen feel even worse.

Yan Shanshan froze, looking at Gu Beichen in disbelief. How could he deny their relationship so decisively? Did he really not care about her feelings?

Ha, men, they really are all lustful creatures.

Madam Shen, being worldly-wise, was naturally not fooled by their petty tricks. She clapped her hands and said sarcastically, "Are you treating this ward like a stage for a theatrical performance, with each of you acting in unison? Do you think we're fools?"

"Mo Mo is kind and doesn't bother with people like you, but you're pushing your luck! You're utterly despicable!" Madam Shen, hands on her hips and eyes wide with anger, roared, "Get out of here! Get out of here right now, or I'll have you all thrown out!"

Without a word, Madam Shen threw all the fruit that Jiang Shao and her group had brought out the door. Jiang Shao's face instantly turned ashen. As the head of the Gu Group, when had she ever suffered such humiliation?

At this moment, she felt that she had lost all face and dignity, and could only force herself to say, "Okay, Madam Shen, we'll leave right away. Mo Mo, take good care of yourself, and I'll come back to apologize to you in a few days."

After Jiang Shao finished speaking, he pulled Gu Beichen and turned to leave. Yan Shanshan glared fiercely at Shen Chumo and said through gritted teeth, "Shen Chumo, don't think you've won." Then, she followed the two of them out of the ward.

Madam Shen looked at Gu Xiyan, who was still standing, and said, "What, you still can't bear to leave?"

Gu Xiyan glanced at Shen Chumo, who winked at him innocently. "Brother Xiyan, you've spent the whole afternoon with me. You must be tired. Go back and rest."

Gu Xiyan had no choice but to say, "Madam Shen, I'm leaving, but I also want to tell you and Chu Mo that Jiang Shao and her son are not on the same side. The relationship between Jiang Shao and me... well, it's very complicated. I will prove it to you later."

Madam Shen raised her chin, signaling him to leave quickly.

"Then I'm leaving, Chu Mo. I'll come see you again tomorrow."

"Okay, goodbye, Brother Xiyan."

After Gu Xiyan left, Madam Shen calmed down a bit. She sat by Shen Chumo's bedside, looking at her with affection: "Chumo, don't worry, we won't let those Gu family members get away with bullying you like that."

And that Gu Xiyan, although he looks respectable, he's still a member of the Gu family, so you need to be careful and on guard."

Chu Mo is good in every way, except that she is too kind and has such a beautiful appearance. I wonder how many wolf cubs are secretly coveting her.

After drinking Madam Shen's soup, Shen Chumo read a book and then went to sleep. Shen Lin, Lu Ziyin, Yan Siming, and Su Jingyu all came to see her after school.

However, in order not to disturb Shen Chumo's rest, they only stayed for a short while before leaving.

A week later, sunlight streamed through the hospital windows, gently bathing Shen Chumo in its warmth. She stretched, enjoying the long-awaited fresh air, and was finally discharged.

However, the chain reaction triggered by her hospitalization, like a raging sea, did not disappear.

First was Gu Xiyan, who was like a hungry wolf that had been suppressed for a long time, no longer hiding his ambition.

He showed no mercy in revealing his fangs, and his influence in the Gu Group grew like a snowball. Every decision he made was decisive and ruthless, making those who had once looked down on him tremble with fear.

Jiang Shao was furious at Gu Xiyan's rise to power, but she was helpless against him. She tried to find various ways to curb Gu Xiyan's expansion of power, but each time she failed.

Jiang Shao was furious but helpless as he watched Gu Xiyan's status in the Gu family rise higher and higher.

In addition, the original relationships among the main characters also began to change.
