"Miss Mu, someone has delivered something."

When the nurse came in carrying a gift box of flowers, Mu Liangyue was typing away on her laptop while receiving an IV drip.

"Don't forget you're still a patient, take a rest," the nurse reminded you.

Mu Liangyue may not be well-known among the doctors at Anlan Hospital, but she is quite famous among the nurses and caregivers.

To repay the kindness, she frequently came to the hospital to learn massage techniques and knowledge about caring for vegetative patients, and she consulted many nurses and caregivers.

The girl has a strong fighting spirit, is kind-hearted and polite, and everyone likes her very much.

Mu Liangyue looked up and was stunned. "...Who sent so many things? I can't accept them!"

The table was piled high with all sorts of high-end gifts, a dazzling array.

The nurse smiled and said, "I asked the person who gave the gift, and they said the person who signed the bill was the eldest young master of the Lu family."

Mu Liangyue looked confused: "Young Master?"

The nurse was still on duty; she left after delivering the items.

"Knock knock," came a rhythmic knocking sound from outside.

Mu Liangyue looked up and called out, "Young Master..."

She fell silent, looking at the person who pushed the door open in surprise.

Lu Sijian greeted her with a smile, "Liangyue, good morning! Are you feeling better now?"

Mu Liangyue was flattered and surprised. "Miss Lu, what brings you here? I—"

She tried to get up from the bed, but Lu Sijian raised her hand and pressed her down.

"You're still on an IV drip, so sit still and don't move."

Wang Ma brought over a chair and let Lu Sijian sit down in front of the bed so that the two could talk more easily.

Mu Liangyue realized what was happening, "You sent these things? No, I..."

"You can't accept it, right?" Lu Sijian looked at the things with worry. "Then what should I do? You won't forgive me."

"I was wrong last night. I let you down and didn't realize how seriously ill you were."

Mu Liangyue was stunned: "I didn't not forgive you... No, you saved my life, you did nothing to wrong me! I did anything for you willingly! Besides, I didn't even help..."

She tried to explain, somewhat incoherently.

Lu Sijian chuckled, "Then you should accept it."

That smile was so captivating that Mu Liangyue's breath hitched, and she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

Lu Sijian: "You treat me so sincerely, I shouldn't have let Lou Xiao misunderstand you again and again. I will definitely explain things to you later."

Mu Liangyue recalled the last phone call last night, and her hand, resting on the blanket, unconsciously clenched.

Lu Sijian changed the subject: "But how can a grown man be so petty, always ordering you around? He doesn't even pay you a salary, so why should he?"

“No!” Mu Liangyue retorted instinctively, “He’s not petty, he…”

Noticing Lu Sijian's questioning gaze, she pursed her lips, her eyes dimming for a moment, "...He just loves you too much, that's why he won't forgive me."

For three years, she tried her best to make amends, but no matter what she did, she couldn't win Lou Xiao's forgiveness.

Mu Liangyue suppressed the bitterness rising in her heart and looked at Lu Sijian solemnly, "Young Master Lou really loves you."

The air was quiet for a moment.

Lu Sijian: "I'm not going to take the blame for this."

What a joke! The male lead is clearly unaware that he's attracted to you. I'm just a part of your play, so don't bring it up.

"What?" Mu Liangyue thought she had misheard.

"It's nothing." Lu Sijian took out an apple and started peeling it.

I almost let it slip; I forgot she was there to cause trouble.

Mu Liangyue: "Miss Lu, let me peel it for you."

"No need." Lu Sijian glanced at the fruit knife and quickly moved aside.

She remembered that the female protagonist in the book was easily injured.

Not only was she abused by the male lead, but also by various vicious female supporting characters, resulting in constant injuries, both major and minor.

One must endure countless hardships before one can earn the deepest love and affection from others.

Lu Sijian was afraid that the temptation of 30 billion was too great, and combined with the female lead's debuff, she might not be able to resist stabbing the female lead in the back, which would be a bit hard to explain.

However it was still too late.

Mu Liangyue moved too suddenly and fell forward. With a "whoosh," the IV stand was pulled out, and blood instantly gushed from the back of her hand.

The door suddenly opened, and someone rushed in, shoving Lu Sijian aside. "What are you doing?"

Lu Sijian bumped into the bedside table, frowned, and wondered, "Who is this?"

The sound of high heels hitting the ground rang out rapidly. Shen Baolin grabbed the man in the suit, her voice both angry and urgent, "What are you doing in here? This is none of your business!"

The man in the suit still stared fiercely at Lu Sijian, "You dare to hurt her?"

Lu Sijian glanced down at the knife in her hand, which was still stained with Mu Liangyue's blood: "..."

What the heck? She hasn't even had time to do anything yet!

Is this damn female lead's halo starting to take effect already? It's terrifyingly strong.

Mu Liangyue covered the back of her hand: "Senior, I did this myself, it has nothing to do with Miss Lu!"

Shen Baolin was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized, "It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"

She shoved the man in the suit, "Alright, stop making things worse, let's go!"

Wang Ma immediately objected, "You're not allowed to leave! Can you afford to compensate us for any injuries our young lady suffers?"

She tried to stop the man in the suit, but Shen Baolin was clearly faster and quickly pushed him away.

Just then, the nurse arrived and blocked her way, so Wang Ma had no choice but to give up.

"Miss Baolin, what are you doing here?" Aunt Wang asked suspiciously.

It's no wonder she's overthinking things; lately, she's been trying to find Shen Baolin, but she can't get through.

When Miss Mingming had just woken up, Miss Baolin had said that if Miss Mingming felt bored, she could come to her anytime.

Although the other party said that, they gradually stopped visiting, and when called, they were either busy or didn't have time.

The person who said he didn't have time appeared in Mu Liangyue's hospital room.

"Are you here to visit Miss Mu?" Wang Ma thought for a moment. Miss Baolin used to dislike Mu Liangyue at all.

Shen Baolin glanced at Lu Sijian, feeling somewhat guilty and slightly annoyed. Wang Ma was really interfering too much.

"I……"

“Wang Ma, what nonsense are you talking about? Baolin and Liangyue are in the same university, of course she’s here to visit her,” Lu Sijian suddenly said.

Looking at the 39% favorability rating in front of her, it was hard not to be happy. Another newbie experience gift pack!

Shen Baolin felt a sense of relief, but then her heart tightened again.

"Who was that just now? Why were they so angry?" Lu Sijian changed the subject.

"he is……"

“He’s Liangyue’s colleague, just here on behalf of the company to visit her,” Shen Baolin quickly replied.

Mu Liangyue glanced at her with some surprise, but wisely chose not to say anything.

"Jian, do you want an apple? I'll peel one for you." Shen Baolin picked up an apple and started peeling it to cover up her embarrassment.

Lu Sijian seemed to be deep in thought.

[Shen Baolin tends to blink a lot when she's nervous. Is there something wrong with that man?]

Wait a minute, wasn't that Zhou Guyang just now? Wow, it looks like Shen Baolin is secretly keeping a gigolo!

Shen Baolin was startled, and the knife in her hand veered off course, cutting off a large piece of the apple.

Lu Sijian looked over.

[Your skills are really bad, but it's okay, Zhou Guyang said he'd peel apples for you for the rest of his life.]

Shen Baolin suddenly stood up, her tone changing: "You investigated me?"

Lu Sijian blinked. "Investigate what?"

Mu Liangyue also looked bewildered, and tugged at Shen Baolin's sleeve, whispering, "Baolin, don't yell at Miss Lu like that."

She glanced at Lu Sijian with a hint of worry.

I hope Ms. Lu won't be angry about this.
