After going bankrupt, the school beauty I was dating became my boss.

After completing the formalities, Su Yanxi asked about the rumors before returning to the ward. Gu Yanxi assured her that she had already dealt with them and told her not to worry.

Back in the ward, only Shen Shi'an was there; Wang Jiaojiao was no longer there.

Where is Wang Jiaojiao?

She said she had something to do and went back first.

Shen Shi'an looked at Su Yanxi: "Have you completed the discharge procedures?"

"It's all done, you can go now."

As Su Yanxi was about to pick up her luggage, Gu Yannian stepped forward and took all the luggage from her, saying, "Let me do it."

Su Yanxi did not refuse and instead went to help Shen Shi'an.

The three of them left the hospital together and returned to the villa.

Upon arriving at the villa's entrance, Gu Yannian put down his luggage and prepared to leave. After arguing with Shen Shi'an here last time, he had developed a certain aversion to the villa.

Su Yanxi noticed that Gu Yannian was acting strangely, so she stopped and asked, "Why aren't you coming in?"

"I won't go in, I have something to do."

Gu Yannian made up an excuse and refused to go in.

Seeing this, Su Yanxi didn't insist. She told Gu Yannian to be careful on her way back, and then went into the house with Shen Shi'an.

In the guest room.

Su Yanxi told Shen Shi'an to rest on the bed while she busied herself packing the luggage she had brought back.

Shen Shi'an looked at the busy Su Yanxi and suddenly said, "Xiaoxi, stop tidying up and come chat with me."

Hearing this, Su Yanxi smiled at Shen Shi'an: "I'll be done soon. Senior, just say what you want to say, I'm listening."

Shen Shi'an was silent for a moment, then asked, "Xiaoxi, what's the situation between you and Gu Yannian now?"

Su Yanxi paused in packing her luggage, then continued: "Why did you suddenly ask that, senior?"

"I've wanted to ask this question for a long time, but I just haven't had the chance," Shen Shi'an said softly. "I saw your worry and anxiety when Gu Yannian disappeared for a while. I want to know, what are your feelings for him right now?"

Su Yanxi had originally wanted to have a proper talk with Shen Shi'an about this matter, but so much had happened that she hadn't been able to find a suitable opportunity. Now that Shen Shi'an had brought it up today, Su Yanxi didn't want to hide it any longer.

Su Yanxi stood up, turned around to face Shen Shi'an: "Senior, I want to get back together with Gu Yannian!"

Shen Shi'an had already guessed the answer, but guessing it and hearing it with his own ears were two completely different feelings.

Shen Shi'an stared at Su Yanxi for a long time, then stood up, clutching his stomach, and walked to Su Yanxi, stopping in front of her: "Xiaoxi, are you sure?"

"Ah."

"What about me?"

Su Yanxi fell silent upon hearing Shen Shi'an's words.

"Xiaoxi, you can't possibly not know how I feel about you. All these years, I've been silently protecting you, and I think you know very well why. Can't you really give me a chance?"

Shen Shi'an was deeply affectionate; he had poured all his feelings into Su Yanxi and naturally hoped to receive some response from her.

"Senior, I remember everything you've done for me. I admit that during my most painful and lost times, it was your companionship that pulled me out of the darkness. But senior, I can't lie to you. I've always regarded you as an older brother. My feelings for you are admiration and trust, but there's no romantic love between us."

Senior, you're outstanding, you deserve to be with a woman better than me!

These words came from Su Yanxi's heart.

In her heart, Shen Shi'an deserved the best of everything.

Shen Shi'an looked at Su Yanxi without saying a word.

He knew very well that this wasn't the time to confess his feelings. But if he didn't say it now, he feared he might never have the chance again.

Of course, Su Yanxi's rejection was within his expectations.

"Little Creek, I'm tired, I want to rest for a while."

Shen Shi'an walked back to the bedside and sat down, then dismissed him.

Su Yanxi didn't say much, told Shen Shi'an to rest well, and then quietly left the room.

When Shen Shi'an looked up after hearing the door close, his face was icy cold.

He has waited for Su Yanxi for so many years, he doesn't mind waiting a few more.

He was confident that Su Yanxi would come back to his side!

night.

Su Yanxi had prepared dinner, but Shen Shi'an didn't come down to eat. Su Yanxi didn't disturb him; she had rejected Shen Shi'an during the day, and he might need some time to think it over.

The food was portioned out and placed in the pan so that Shen Shi'an could eat it whenever he wanted.

Meanwhile, in the hotel's penthouse suite.

Sun Xiaoxi was taking selfies in various styles. She never imagined that she could stay in such a nice suite.

There was a knock on the door. Sun Xiaoxi stopped taking a selfie and went to open it: "Who is it?"

"Hello, ma'am, this is a gift from the front desk, they said it's from your friend." The housekeeper politely handed Sun Xiaoxi a box.

Sun Xiaoxi took the box, closed the door, and sat back down on the bed. Opening the box, she found a stack of photos inside.

When Sun Xiaoxi took out the photo, she realized that the person in the photo was actually Su Yanxi!

There are photos of Su Yanxi driving, watering plants in the garden, and shopping; all the photos share the same theme: Su Yanxi is now really rich!

Sun Xiaoxi's eyes were almost red with tears. During the day, someone approached her saying her cousin was looking for her, which she initially didn't believe. However, she had an argument with her team leader at work and quit in a fit of anger. With nowhere else to go, she had no choice but to come to Su Yanxi.

She was wary, afraid of being scammed, so she flew there alone. When she arrived at the agreed-upon hotel, she discovered it was a six-star luxury hotel. She asked at the front desk, and they confirmed they had indeed booked a room for her and even paid for it. Sun Xiaoxi finally felt relieved!

Seeing how well Su Yanxi was living, Sun Xiaoxi felt nothing but envy and jealousy.

If she had known Su Yanxi was doing so well, she should have come sooner.

Sun Xiaoxi's gaze was drawn to the note in the box. She took it out and saw that it contained an address, which should be where Su Yanxi was currently living.

Upon seeing this, Sun Xiaoxi immediately packed her luggage, preparing to go find Su Yanxi first thing tomorrow morning.

From beginning to end, Sun Xiaoxi never considered who had orchestrated all of this. For her, the most important thing now was the life of wealth and luxury she would enjoy after siding with Su Yanxi; everything else was completely out of her consideration.
