"I'll take you home."

As soon as he finished speaking, seeing Xie Yan standing there in a daze, Shen Yan helplessly took her hand, his eyes crinkling with a smile.

Everyone watched as the two drove away... oh wait, there was also a secretary pushing a wheelchair, until they got into the car and sped off.

The people at the hotel entrance looked on in a daze, wondering, "Does Mr. Shen have any twin brothers or something...?"

"No, Mr. Shen and Xie Yan, what happened to them...?"

"Holy crap, the iron tree has bloomed???"

Several company employees seemed to snap out of a daze and turned to look at Cui Nan and the others. However, Cui Nan and Luo Dandan's group were equally bewildered and had not yet recovered.

Xie Yan's colleagues at the research base had no idea when she met President Shen. She wasn't even present the only time he visited the base. So when was it?

Only Zou Yating's face was pale. Feng Jing looked at her worriedly, "Are you alright...?"

Are you alright? How could I be alright!

The thought of how she had just gone to ask Xie Yan made Zou Yating's face turn red and white, looking extremely unpleasant.

So what her dad said was true, President Shen really does have a girlfriend, but how could it be Xie Yan? Wasn't she just a long-time employee?

Tears welled up in her eyes, and Zou Yating covered her face as she ran away.

Xie Yan, who saw this scene in the car's rearview mirror, silently looked away, then reached out and pinched Shen Yan's handsome face hard, "Troublemaker."

Shen Yan was bewildered: "?"

The car drove all the way home. Xie Yan pushed the wheelchair through the door. She was a little tipsy and walked unsteadily. Shen Yan had to manually hold the tire to prevent her from bumping into the table.

After finally reaching the sofa, Xie Yan nodded in satisfaction, "My alcohol tolerance has improved; I can even walk in a straight line while being pushed around."

"..." Shen Yan reached out and pulled her to sit down on the sofa. The two looked at each other, and he touched Xie Yan's flushed cheeks. "How much did you drink?"

"Not many." Only six cups.

The research project came to a perfect end, and Shen Yan finally accepted the wheelchair. Xie Yan was in a great mood, her eyes shining brightly. She leaned over and gave Shen Yan a light kiss on the face.

Xie Yan smiled and said, "A goodnight kiss, as a reward for you."

The touch was like the fluttering of feathers, yet it was burning hot. Shen Yan pursed his lips, looking extremely serious, "If I use a wheelchair every day, will you reward me every day?"

Speaking of the wheelchair, Xie Yan's gaze fell on his legs. "How's the recovery going? Has it still hurt these past few days?"

The weather in the northern part of the city has been quite nice lately, at least not like the continuous rainy weather of spring, so it should be better than before.

Sure enough, Shen Yan nodded and said it didn't hurt anymore, but he would need to have surgery tomorrow.

The person on the sofa suddenly touched the young man's knee gently. "It's okay, don't be nervous, I'm here with you."

Shen Yan suddenly stopped and grabbed Xie Yan's hand tightly. "Say it again."

"What? I told you not to be nervous, did I say something wrong? Well, then be nervous."

"That's not it."

The next moment, Xie Yan was enveloped in an embrace, Shen Yan's broad arms holding her tightly in his arms, "You said you've always been with me."

Xie Yan was taken aback for a moment, then relaxed and patted his back reassuringly, "Did you have a nightmare last night? Don't be afraid, I'm here with you."

Shen Yan pressed harder, burying his face in her neck and nuzzling her neck again, "You said you would stay with me forever and never leave again."

"Yes, I'll stay with you forever and never leave again."

------

Shen Yan's surgery began promptly at nine o'clock in the morning.

However, when Xie Yan woke up, it was already 10 o'clock.

Although she wasn't too drunk yesterday, she did have an upset stomach from eating too many crabs. She felt so uncomfortable that she got up and vomited once in the evening, so much so that Shen Yan didn't have the heart to wake her up when he went to the hospital.

Damn it, she had just been sweetly telling someone not to be nervous the day before, that she was there for them, but then she overslept and ended up being left with nothing. Like a faithless jerk, Xie Yan jumped out of bed, changed her clothes, and prepared to go to the hospital.

As soon as they stepped out of the villa area gate, they were surprised to see Xie Qingyu's car parked outside, with him smoking inside.

Hearing the door open, Xie Qingyu looked over and was so surprised to see Xie Yan standing by the car that he dropped his cigarette butt. "Sis? What are you doing here!"

Xie Yan opened the car door and got in. "There's no time to explain. Drive quickly to the city's central hospital."

Seeing her serious expression, Xie Qingyu quickly stubbed out his cigarette and drove towards the hospital.

He came here to meet a producer, but before the producer came out, his sister showed up instead.

Xie Qingyu wasn't stupid. He knew that Shen Yan also lived here. He quickly realized that his sister had probably softened her heart again, or that she had been deceived by that scheming woman again.

As he pondered, Xie Qingyu seemed to have a sudden realization and became quite angry with himself. "I don't approve of the two of you."

Xie Yan was still worried about Shen Yan's surgery when she suddenly heard this and was stunned. "What?"

"You and that guy surnamed Shen, he's both insane and crippled. Others might not know how insane he is, but don't you know?"

Xie Yan pursed her lips.

Shen Yan's madness came from his mentally unstable mother; it was in his genes. His disability was caused by Xie Qingyu, something she knew better than anyone else, but...

“He has changed a lot.” Xie Yan recalled some things before the two of them confronted each other. Shen Yan pretended not to recognize her. For someone who had been seeing psychiatrists for many years, he had really done his limit to endure it for so long.

Perhaps knowing Xie Yan's attitude, Shen Yan almost went against his instincts and tried his best not to disturb her life. If Xie Yan hadn't brought it up, they probably would have maintained a respectable client-vendor relationship.

“I know what you’re worried about, but he has really changed a lot compared to before.”

Upon hearing this, Xie Qingyu let out a cold snort from his nose, "He's a damn fool. Do you know how extreme and ruthless his methods are in the business world? That kind of madman has no empathy whatsoever. He can only fool naive and innocent people like you."

"..." Xie Yan was speechless for the first time in her life that someone called her a naive and innocent girl, and the person was her own younger brother.

Xie Qingyu kept rambling on, "Believe me, he's just pretending to be weak, he's not really pitiful. Don't be fooled by him, there are plenty of perfectly healthy men in the world! With your qualities, you can pick any man you want!"

"By the way, sis, didn't you watch that TV series the other day? The male actor in it is from my company. He's single and three years younger than you. How about I ask him out so you two can get to know each other?"

As if she could no longer bear it, Xie Yan said in a deep voice, "Xie Qingyu, that's enough."

Xie Qingyu knew that when his sister started calling him by his full name, it meant she was angry, so he immediately stopped and dared not nag anymore.

Xie Yan was in a bind. She knew that Xie Qingyu and Shen Yan were irreconcilable enemies, but she couldn't just play matchmaker for her. What good was it if a popular male star was handsome? She wasn't going to fall in love with every girl she met.

The silence wasn't broken until the car stopped in front of the hospital. Xie Qingyu asked, "So, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Yan unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. "It wasn't me. Shen Yan is having surgery today."

"..."

Depend on! !

You should have said so earlier!!

If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have given it to you!

He hurriedly dumped the car on the side of the street, and Xie Qingyu quickly followed.

Xie Yan looked at him and said, "What are you doing coming in here? You can't fight in a hospital."

The tall man gave a forced smile and snorted twice, "What are you saying, sis? I'm his older brother, isn't it normal for me to come and see him?"

Xie Yan: I don't believe you for a second.

Xie Qingyu rubbed his hands together and sneered repeatedly. His sinister smile resembled that of a stereotypical villain in a martial arts drama, as if the words "malicious intent" were written all over his face.

"It's been a long time. Let me take care of my brother-in-law personally."
