After finishing the mutton hot pot, most of the staff at Zhongkangtang went home, leaving only one staff member in each department.

An Xiaoyue didn't drink alcohol, thinking she would keep Academician Leng company at Zhongkangtang.

As a result, Fu Shengyang came to pick her up ahead of time.

It was only a little past four in the afternoon, but it was already dark.

With the Spring Festival approaching, the deserted streets are filled with a festive atmosphere, decorated with lanterns and colorful lights everywhere, even the bare tree branches are adorned with decorative lights.

An Xiaoyue thought about Yan Yan's situation. Yan Yan's actions today were indeed dangerous, and it was impossible for someone to always protect her.

"I have something to tell you," An Xiaoyue said.

Fu Shengyang, who had been contemplating the problem with his eyes closed, opened them upon hearing her words and said earnestly, "Go on, I'm listening."

"Among my fellow interns, there was a girl who disliked me from the very beginning. First, she said my diamond ring was made of rhinestones, and later she would often point her phone at me. I don't know if she was taking pictures of me; I have no proof, and I don't know why she did it, but my intuition tells me she was..."

At first, Fu Shengyang thought it was just jealousy between young girls, but the more he listened, the more he realized something was wrong, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly.

“I originally thought that since we were all doing our internships at Zhongkangtang and would see each other every day, I could just put up with it and occasionally retaliate. But today, she said something about bad luck, and I couldn’t stand it, so I brought up her cheating on the final exam to provoke her.”

The rumors that Yan Yan started cheating on the final exams were not unfounded; they had spread throughout the school forum.

She overheard Luo Xinyu lamenting during her break that she had never heard of Yan Yan's name before, realizing she had cheated.

To prove the truthfulness of his words, Luo Xinyu even showed her his phone.

Now, when An Xiaoyue talks about the whole process, she realizes how naive and wrong she was back then.

She lowered her head, her face flushed with embarrassment, and a hand came into view, gripping her hand tightly.

Fu Shengyang said, "You did a great job, not just because of luck, but also for yourself. When you feel uncomfortable, then you are uncomfortable. Fu Wantang didn't get any benefit from you, and neither can anyone else."

An Xiaoyue looked up in surprise. Was Fu Shengyang encouraging her to fight back with her sharp tongue?

Fu Shengyang's lips curved into a beautiful smile as he gently stroked the back of her hand.

"In the future, if you need to take action, tell me immediately. Don't take risks on your own. I will handle it."

An Xiaoyue's nose felt sore.

From a young age, she was taught to endure as much as possible. Even when she couldn't bear it, the degree to which she should retaliate was a question that constantly troubled her.

Fu Shengyang said he would handle it.

The subtext of this statement is: You can rely on me.

Can she... rely on Fu Shengyang?

An Xiaoyue later wondered if she would have received that slap in the face today if Leng Fangyi hadn't helped her.

Or, if Leng Fangyi hadn't intervened, and if the people around her hadn't paid attention, would she have suffered an even more serious accident?

She felt a wave of fear wash over her. "Let Shang Qi come along."

She didn't dare take the risk; like Fu Shengyang, she only hoped to be born safely and healthily.

Fu Shengyang stroked her soft, short hair, his voice gentle, "I will investigate and handle Yan Yan's matter. You focus on your work."

"Okay." An Xiaoyue's anxious heart immediately calmed down.

The Phantom drove slowly along the lane, and after a short distance, it came to a complete stop.

After stopping for five or six minutes, the driver saw that there was no sign of movement ahead and a long queue had formed behind, so he couldn't back up.

"Young Master, Young Madam, I'll go see what's going on?"

"Hmm." Fu Shengyang replied without looking up while sending a message.

An Xiaoyue looked around boredly; the amusement park was not far away.

The Ferris wheel turned slowly in the snowy night, its colorful decorative lights twinkling in the night sky, making it a beautiful sight.

Each little compartment tells a story of happiness.

Snowy night, amusement park, Ferris wheel—this scene evokes a romantic yet tragic Korean drama.

"What are you looking at?"

"Look at that Ferris wheel..."

An Xiaoyue pointed out the window, then turned to share the view with Fu Shengyang.

Suddenly, two slightly cool lips pressed against hers, and warm breath sprayed onto the tip of her nose.

"Thump-thump! Thump-thump-thump..." My heartbeat suddenly became disordered, and my pulse rate kept rising.

An Xiaoyue retreated in a panic.

Fu Shengyang didn't give her a chance.

In the darkness, he raised his hand to protect the back of An Xiaoyue's head, forcing her to tilt her head back and kiss him.

His kiss was deep and heavy, his breath mingling with his.

An Xiaoyue was overwhelmed by the fierce onslaught, and her breathing quickly became rapid...

The lights flickered, and the driver returned.

Fu Shengyang released her in time, knowing that she was easily embarrassed and would be angry with him if there were a third person present.

The driver opened the car door, and the cold air dispelled the ambiguous atmosphere that filled the narrow space.

An Xiaoyue's face was burning hot, and she pressed her hands to her chest, too shy to know where to look.

The driver reported the information he had gathered: "Young Master, there has been a car accident ahead, and the road is temporarily closed. Shall I ask the family driver to take another route to pick you and Madam up?"

"No need, I'll take the young mistress to the amusement park for a while. Call me when the road opens."

As Fu Shengyang spoke, he unbuckled the seatbelts of both of them.

He took An Xiaoyue's hand and walked towards the amusement park, their palms warmed by their tightly clasped hands.

What are we going to the amusement park for?

"Let's go ride the Ferris wheel."

?

An Xiaoyue looked completely bewildered.

Why is he suddenly being so romantic?

Did he hear what she was thinking?

Fu Shengyang took her hand, bought tickets, and boarded the Ferris wheel with the help of staff.

As the Ferris wheel slowly rises, the night view unfolds before your eyes.

The white snow forms the backdrop for the dazzling lights.

"so beautiful."

Fu Shengyang smiled, her happiness made him feel exceptionally good too.

No wonder he wasn't this excited even when he gave her a pink diamond worth 300 million; it turns out Xiaoyue likes these things.

She loves snow and snowflakes. She feels very happy on snowy days.

Fu Shengyang silently kept it in mind.

An Xiaoyue took a picture of the night view outside the Ferris wheel and sent it to Zhong Lingxi to see.

She looked away from her phone screen and saw Fu Shengyang smiling at her from across the room.

She blushed. "Do you want to take two pictures?"

Fu Shengyang readily agreed and sat down next to her. "Let's take pictures together. When Lucky asks what we did when we were pregnant with her, we can show her the photos."

Without thinking much, An Xiaoyue raised her phone to take a picture.

Fu Shengyang took her phone away. "I'll take it. I have long arms."

In the phone screen, Fu Shengyang's hand was on her shoulder.

She wanted to expose her abdomen, so she placed one hand on Fu Sheng's thigh. His body was hot under her palm, and the muscles in his thigh were firm and hard.

An Xiaoyue tried to ignore the sensation under her hand, and gave a thumbs-up with one hand.

"We can take pictures now." She smiled and squeezed out the words through her teeth.

Fu Shengyang's smile widened, revealing his clean, white teeth in the photo.

The two took a group photo and individual photos of each other inside the Ferris wheel.

The minute hand always seems to fly by when you're happy. Seeing her reluctant expression, Fu Shengyang asked, "Shall we ride it one more time?"

"No." The driver had already made a phone call. "We should go home. Mom and Grandpa are waiting for us to have dinner."

Fu Shengyang wrapped her hand in his trench coat pocket, and the two walked towards the door together.

Even though it was cold, there were still people playing in the amusement park, mostly couples.

Two people with zero romantic experience and a clean romantic history, upon encountering a couple passionately kissing in front of a tourist attraction, instinctively quickened their pace.

An Xiaoyue was quite tired from playing today, and before Fu Shengyang had even finished reading a single story, she had already fallen into a deep sleep.

Fu Shengyang ran his fingers across her nose and kissed her forehead before tiptoeing to the study to handle some business.

The investigation has yielded results.

Those screenshots and video traffic comparisons completely enraged Fu Shengyang.

The temperature in the study plummeted, the air seemed to freeze, and his voice grew even colder, "Preserve the evidence and shut her up."

After hanging up the phone, he lightly tapped the table with his well-defined fingers, a habitual gesture when he was thinking.

Yan Yan is the daughter of the deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau. She has been implicated in the liver disease hospital incident and is currently running around trying to find a solution.

Does Jiang Mianzhi know that Jiang Kai and Yan Yan are involved?
