Return to before death

Chapter 67 The Arrogant One Gets Ignored

A few minutes later, Liu Xinyin returned after completing the discharge procedures to help him up. Her actions of checking on him as he took each step were just like those of a wife who was afraid her husband would fall and took good care of him.

"Watch where you're going." The two cold words came out of Sheng Xuanling's mouth. If he could walk on his own, he would never have let this woman help him.

If someone is always looking around when walking, it's only a matter of time before they fall.

However, these two words took on a different meaning in Liu Xinyin's ears. She thought that Sheng Xuanling was reminding her because she was worried that she would fall.

In an instant, she held him tightly with her hands, her expression becoming much more focused.

When she looked up and saw the car at the door, she couldn't help but slow down. It was a rare opportunity to be alone with him, and she wished time could stand still at this moment.

But the road is only so long, and we will eventually reach our destination.

The moment Sheng Xuanling released her hand, she felt as if her entire soul had been stolen away by this man named Sheng Xuanling.

"Aren't you coming in? Are you trying to walk back?" Sheng Xuanling's emotionless voice brought her back to her senses.

She responded, her face filled with ecstasy, and got into the car.

Her nose was filled with his scent, and her face flushed.

Sheng Xuanling merely glanced at her indifferently before turning her gaze to the window.

This made Liu Xinyin, who felt his gaze, burn even more. She covered her face, trying to stop herself from looking at the man beside her.

As Sheng Xuanling looked out the window, she was suddenly drawn to a figure from behind. When the person turned around, it was none other than Yan Ran.

However, she had a smile on her face, was carrying a bunch of things, and was standing next to Yu Xiao.

Sheng Xuanling's eyes darkened, and he understood something.

No wonder this woman hasn't come for several days; she's been shopping with someone else.

Once I go shopping, I forget about him completely.

If he hadn't stumbled upon her, he probably would have kept thinking she was delayed by something important.

Yan Ran's smile froze, and a chill ran down her spine.

She turned her head to look, but only saw a car speeding by, nothing else.

She rubbed her nose. Why did she feel like Sheng Xuanling was looking at her at that moment? Wasn't he still lying in the hospital?

An illusion must be an illusion.

"What's wrong?" Yu Xiao followed Yan Ran's gaze and saw only a tree.

She frowned slightly. Why was this person suddenly staring blankly at a tree? Had he gone to the hospital too many times and made himself stupid?

Yu Xiao insisted that Yan Ran stay in the hospital for three days before allowing her to be discharged. Originally, Yan Ran was already healthy when she woke up, but no matter what she said or how she proved it, Yu Xiao wouldn't let her out.

She had been cooped up for days, and now that she was finally discharged from the hospital, she naturally dragged Yu Xiao shopping with her.

"It's nothing." Yan Ran shook her head, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart.

It must be because I was constantly on edge that I started to have illusions.

A smile returned to her face as she took Yu Xiao's hand. "Let's continue shopping."

She was enjoying a rare moment of relaxation, with Yu Xiao by her side; how could she let such an opportunity pass by?

Yu Xiaohui took Yan Ran's hand, her gaze seemingly casually glancing at the things in their hands.

The implication is clear: they've already bought so much, and if they keep shopping, they definitely won't be able to control themselves and will keep buying more, and then they'll be wondering how to carry it all home.

Yan Ran chuckled, then immediately turned to Yu Xiao in a flattering tone, "Then let's go home."

Yu Xiao nodded in agreement.

After returning home and putting her things down, Yan Ran lay on the bed staring at the ceiling.

Shopping all day had greatly relaxed her mind, but it had taken a toll on her feet.

I didn't feel anything while I was shopping, but the soreness hit me instantly when I got home.

She reached out and rubbed her calves, wondering if her legs would be ruined.

Just as she was lost in thought, the phone rang suddenly.

Yan Ran picked up the phone, and after seeing the three words on it, she almost dropped it.

Sheng Xuanling!

She's completely forgotten about this person!

Her hand trembled, and she almost hung up.

In the end, she pressed the answer button.

"Hey? Are you feeling alright?" Yan Ran asked, her voice filled with guilt.

He had previously vowed that she would take care of him from now on, in order to repay the life-saving grace.

But after only a short time, she abandoned him. He couldn't even get out of bed, so she left him there to fend for himself. She was filled with guilt and begged that nothing bad would happen.

“Very good.” Sheng Xuanling said slowly and deliberately on the other end of the phone, her tone so cold it could freeze Yan Ran.

too frightening.

Yan Ran subconsciously moved her phone away, looking at it with lingering fear. She could feel the other person's coldness even through the phone call.

"What do you want to eat? Do you want me to bring it to you?" Knowing that she had done something wrong, Yan Ran could only use such a low-level method as food to coax an angry person.

However, it was clear that such a low-level approach was not good enough for Sheng Xuanling.

"Oh? You still remember to care about me, your savior?" Sheng Xuanling raised an eyebrow, emphasizing the words "savior".

Ruined.

The moment he finished speaking, Yan Ran knew he must be angry, and not the kind of anger that could be easily appeased.

"I..." Yan Ran chuckled, her ingratiating tone exactly the same as when she had spoken to Yu Xiao.

Yu Xiao, who just walked in, looked at her with a puzzled expression. Who was she calling?

If it were someone Yan Ran didn't care about, she would always respond with an indifferent tone. But now she had a different expression, which meant that the person on the other end of the phone was not simple to her.

Yu Xiao stood aside calmly, showing no embarrassment at having witnessed someone else's good deed.

"Hmm?" Sheng Xuanling couldn't help but speak up after waiting for a long time without hearing Yan Ran continue.

"I was hospitalized too, that's why I didn't have time to take care of you." After thinking it over, Yan Ran decided it was better to tell him the reason directly, since it was all the truth and she hadn't lied.

As for the real reason why she didn't take care of him, she would never tell him, even if she were beaten to death.

How could she tell him that she had forgotten?

Sheng Xuanling narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips slightly.

He had just seen her shopping with another woman; her face was rosy, and she didn't look like someone who had just come out of illness at all.

Is she lying?

"Tell me what serious illness you have that led you to the hospital, or were you unconscious?" Sheng Xuanling sneered, not bothering to expose her. He wanted to see what explanation this woman could give him.

"Yes! She was unconscious. How did you know!" Amazing! She hadn't even explained why she was hospitalized, and he could already guess the reason. If she didn't know that Sheng Xuanling was also hospitalized and had difficulty moving around, she would have thought he had seen it with his own eyes.

Yu Xiao looked at Yan Ran with ambiguous eyes, accurately grasping some key words.

With all the talk of taking care of her and the current explanation, no one would believe there was no affair involved.

However, Yan Ran hasn't divorced her husband yet, and now another one has suddenly appeared. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?

Yu Xiao frowned slightly and glanced at Yan Ran with disapproval.
