“No way! I can’t go anywhere when you’re so badly injured,” Shen Qi exclaimed.
If I leave at a time like this, or if I let Ye Linhan send me to the dinner party, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.
I don’t want to be a ungrateful person!
“You fool,” Ye Linhan whispered and couldn’t help but smile faintly. “Don’t you like him a lot? I’m just helping you.”
“No!” Shen Qi shook her head vigorously. Ye Linhan’s smile became bitter and self-deprecating, which made her nose tingle. As she shook her head, her tears fell. “I don’t need you to do this. All you have to do is just stay in the hospital and get well soon!”
“Didn’t I say that I was fine? These are just some external injuries, and all I need is some bandages. Let’s go. It’ll probably be too late if we don’t go now.”
‘N-No!” Shen Qi gritted her teeth as her tears fell. “I don’t want you to drive me there. Linhan, don’t you get it? Even if I go, I will go alone and won’t let you send me there again! I don’t want to cause any trouble for you anymore.”
At the end of her sentence, Shen Qi was already sobbing.
She used to suspect Ye Linhan’s purpose to be impure, but now, she realized she was the bad guy. He had been so kind to her, yet she kept doubting him and even thought of him as a bad guy.
He is currently seriously injured, but he still insists on sending her to the venue.
Since the nurse, who was hiding at the side, was so young, she started tearing up as well as she was easily moved by them. It was truly touching. Originally, she thought that they were a couple, but it turned out that they weren’t.
Besides, the man was clearly trying to help the woman to be with another man. It really was touching.
How much courage must it take to send the woman you love into the arms of another man?
“Don’t cry.” Ye Linhan frowned subconsciously as he heard her crying. He really was just being considerate and didn’t expect her to refuse his offer.
“If you go on crying, all the time will be wasted. Come on, I’ll take you to the venue, and I’ll come back to the hospital after that. How about that?”
Shen Qi still shook her head vigorously, but Ye Linhan actually grabbed her wrist and dragged her out at the next second. Shen Qi’s face turned pale as she responded, “Linhan, I don’t want to go. Let go of me! I can go by myself!”
The nurse burst out crying.
Although Ye Linhan was injured, he was still a man and was very strong. Shen Qi could not pull her arm away from him, and she didn’t dare to touch him because of his injuries. She could only allow him to drag her.
Although he was pulling her like his usual self, Shen Qi could obviously feel that Ye Linhan’s steps were not as stable as usual. He must have suffered from more serious injuries than she had first thought. Besides, the nurse’s words also made her believe that Ye Linhan was just forcing himself to be tough for her and act as if nothing happened.
If she didn’t stop him, how long could he possibly last? Even if he could last a while, it would only be his mentality that was forcing him to stay strong, while his body wouldn’t be able to take it.”
“Linhan, stop. I want to talk to you, Linhan. Ye Linhan!”
Shen Qi was so angry that she called out his name.
Ye Linhan breathed unsteadily, but his steps actually stopped. He turned and looked sadly at Shen Qi.
Shen Qi gasped. There were tears in the corners of his eyes. “Listen to me,” she said. “I know you are doing this for me, but I can hail a cab to go to the party, so you should head back and get a good rest. Besides, I can choose not to go. Okay?”
With that, Shen Qi even put on a smile and said, “It will be fine if I don’t go to Moxuan’s place. We are husband and wife. I will just explain it to him after this. Linhan, I’m not going. I’ll accompany you back to your ward where you can rest.”
She wanted to pull Ye Linhan back, but Ye Linhan’s body seemed to be rooted to the ground and wouldn’t move at all no matter how hard she pulled him.
Finally, Shen Qi couldn’t contain herself and burst into tears.
“Ye Linhan, I really don’t need you to do so much for me. Would you mind not doing this? Come back to the ward with me. If you collapse again, my conscience will be haunted by you for the rest of my life.”
Ye Linhan’s eyes stared at her, and he finally smiled bitterly after some time. “What is there to be guilty for? I’m not doing this to haunt your conscience. I just want you to be happier and more content.”
“Come on. Let me get you there safely to the party and to his side before the party is over.”
Shen Qi stayed silent.
“Come on. There isn’t much time left to waste. By then, you will just be wasting time here, and you won’t be able to meet Moxuan.”
Shen Qi stood still without moving her step a little. She couldn’t do such cruel things.
“Qi, I am doing all this willingly. I can’t give you happiness, but at least there is something I can do for you. The only thing I can do for you is sending you to his side, not making you accompany me here as you think of him. If you don’t go now, I’m afraid that my injuries.m won’t get better. Cough! Cough!” After that, Ye Linhan even coughed loudly on purpose. His weak body seemed even weaker, and it felt like he would collapse anytime soon.
Shen Qi flushed white from shock and quickly nodded. “Fine, I agree.”
“You finally agree. Come on, let’s go.”
Shen Qi didn’t have a choice. She couldn’t persuade him. Instead of staying in the cold wind with him, it was better to just go with him.
“Let’s take a cab. You’re not in the right condition to drive and your car. You probably can’t drive it now. It’s at the police station.”
Ye Linhan smiled and said, “Okay, whatever you say.”
They then hailed a cab at the side of the road. When Ye Linhan bent down to get into the car, he seemed to have twisted his body a little. The pain made him break out in a cold sweat, and Shen Qi was so frightened that her face turned pale instantly. “Are you okay? Maybe—”
“No.” Ye Linhan swallowed the pain and sat in the car. Shen Qi had no choice but to follow.
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
Ye Linhan forced a smile. “I said I would take you to him. I promised, and I will do it. Driver, send us to this address.”
After telling the drive the address, he continued, “There is a car accident on the bridge so you won’t be able to go through there. You can take another route, but be as fast as possible. Of course, safety first.”
“No problem.”
The driver nodded and quickly stepped on the pedal as the car sped away.
Shen Qi was still nervous as she sat in the car. She bit her lower lip.
Her entire heart was a mess right now. Ye Linhan is so badly injured, yet he is still accompanying me to the party. But I’ve been late for so long, will Ye Moxuan still be waiting?
