Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Chen looked at Yuan Shu expectantly. “You remember me, don’t you?”
He sounded very certain, so he must have expected that Yuan Shu would remember him today.
Yuan Shu looked at the tea in the cup. He must have drugged it.
Yuan Shu smiled bitterly as she looked at Jiang Chen with a complicated expression.
Yuan Shu’s body was in pain, and her face was getting paler and paler. Suddenly, she spat out a mouthful of blood and lay weakly on the table.
Jiang Chen cried out in anguish, “Yuan Shu!” Then he rushed over to help her up.
Shi Xiao, who had been outside, also heard the noise and immediately rushed in. When he saw the blood on the ground, he pushed Jiang Chen away.

Yuan Shu shook her head weakly. Shi Xiao picked Yuan Shu up and was about to leave, but Jiang Chen stopped him.
Jiang Chen’s gaze was vicious as he said, “No one can take her away today.”
Shi Xiao’s expression darkened. “Is Young Master Jiang going to stop me? May I ask why you want to stop my wife? Is Young Master Jiang trying to go against me?”
Jiang Chen snorted coldly. “So what if I go against you? No one can take her away today!”
“In your dreams!” Shi Xiao shouted, “Zhao Cheng, come in.”
In less than two minutes, Zhao Cheng rushed in, followed by Jiang Chen’s bodyguards. The two sides were in a standoff, and neither of them was willing to back down.
Yuan Shu raised her head from Shi Xiao’s arms with difficulty and looked at Jiang Chen. Her eyes were filled with sorrow as she said weakly, “Give me three days. I’ll come and see you in three days.”
There was hesitation in Jiang Chen’s eyes. It was obvious that he didn’t believe Yuan Shu and wasn’t willing to let her go.
Yuan Shu retracted her gaze indifferently, closed her eyes, and said, “I’ll keep my word, unless…” Yuan Shu paused before continuing,” You don’t believe me.”
Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered slightly. In the end, he compromised.
“Let them go.”
Shi Xiao could tell that Yuan Shu was very weak at the moment, so he stopped arguing with Jiang Chen. He carried Yuan Shu and walked out.
After Shi Xiao placed Yuan Shu in the back seat of the car, he said to Zhao
Cheng, who was opening the door, “Go to the hospital.”
Yuan Shu patted Shi Xiao’s hand gently and shook her head, indicating that she didn’t want to go.
Shi Xiao looked at her anxiously. “You’re already vomiting blood. Why don’t you want to go to the hospital?!”
Yuan Shu was too lazy to say anything else. After she changed into a comfortable position, she lay down. She was so tired that she could barely open her eyes. “Give me some time. I want to be alone for a while.”
Shi Xiao no longer insisted and asked Zhao Cheng to bring them home.
That night, the three siblings of the Shi family came back with a tacit understanding.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBecause of the investigation by the Finance Bureau, Shi Bin was worried that something would happen to Yuan Shu and went home that night.
Shi Lu rushed back in the afternoon because of the horse incident. He was worried that Yuan Shu was injured.
As for Shi Yi, she was called back by Shi Bin.
Shi Bin wanted to come back to see if Yuan Shu had left the finance department, but he was afraid that he would be scolded by Shi Xiao when he returned. He didn’t dare to come back alone, so he called Shi Yi to tell her.
When Shi Yi heard that something had happened to Yuan Shu, she was so worried that she settled everything on the same day and rushed home.
When the three of them saw that Yuan Shu was helped in by Shi Xiao, they were very surprised. They rushed to the door and looked at Yuan Shu as they asked in unison, “Sister-in-law, what’s wrong?”
Yuan Shu was very tired, but she still forced a smile and said calmly, “I’m fine.”
Seeing that the three of them wanted to continue asking, Yuan Shu could only say, “I want to rest. You guys don’t have to call me for dinner.”
Then, she broke free from Shi Xiao’s grasp and slowly walked upstairs.
As Shi Xiao looked at his empty hand, he suddenly felt abandoned. For a moment, an indescribable emotion overcame him.
He stared at Yuan Shu’s back as she went upstairs. She looked weak and lonely. That loneliness seemed to have shut him out, causing the connection that they had painstakingly established to collapse in an instant.
For a moment, Shi Xiao felt that Yuan Shu was distancing herself from him. It was as if if if he didn’t catch Yuan Shu now, he would lose her forever.
Shi Xiao wanted to stop Yuan Shu, but he didn’t know how to, so he could only stare at her back in a daze..
