A few of the black-clothed men untied the ropes around Linchuchu's body and helped her up from the chair. Linchuchu was still immersed in the dangerous moment just now, and had not broken out from it. A black-clothed person quickly asked, "Miss Lin, are you alright?"
His voice roused Linchuchu from her daze, only then did she realize that she had been saved. The other black-clothed man draped an overcoat over Linchuchu's body, signalling to her not to be afraid, then led her out of the room.
Linchuchu thought that this coat looked very familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that this was the coat that Chu Sichen usually wore. After exiting the house, Linchuchu realized that it was raining heavily outside. The continuous rain was thick and heavy, but it was not heavy. Turning her head, she saw Lin Xiaxia. Right now, Lin Xiaxia was trapped on top of a tree stump outside the door, her entire body was drenched with rain, looking very miserable.
Linchuchu couldn't help but take a few more glances. Towards this woman who seemed to want to kill her at this moment, and who was stuck in an irrecoverable situation, she had never truly seen her as an opponent. Linchuchu felt that she was a pitiful and pitiful woman, and didn't want to get entangled with her. It was a pity that Lin Xiaxia kept on wanting to get rid of Linchuchu and didn't give up, falling into this state.
Linchuchu had guessed that Chu Sichen must be here as well, but she couldn't figure out the reason for his appearance. Just to save her, a plaything that meant nothing to Chu Sichen, he only needed to send a few people over. If it wasn't just that, what did he want to do? Could it be that Chu Sichen had created an exquisite trap, and couldn't wait for him to fall into it, and reveal an even more miserable expression to win his favor?
Just as Linchuchu was deep in thought, Chu Sichen had already arrived beside her. His face was expressionless as he looked at Linchuchu, who had an exhausted face. His lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out of his mouth.
Linchuchu looked at him indifferently. She did not complain about the fact that he had almost caused her to be humiliated. The Chu Sichen she knew should have been like this in the first place. Everything he did, was just to torture her, that's all.
Following Chu Sichen into the carriage, Linchuchu quietly sat on the chair and looked out the window into the distance. Chu Sichen leaned over, extended his hand, and pulled her into his embrace, allowing her head to rest gently on his warm chest.
A wave of warmth passed through an ice-cold expression and onto Linchuchu's skin. A single tear fell from her eyes and moistened Chu Sichen's tightly clenched fist.
When they arrived at the inn, Chu Sichen immediately picked Linchuchu up and went upstairs. He wanted to put Linchuchu on the bed so she could have a good rest. Linchuchu suddenly said. "I want to take a bath."
Chu Sichen gently placed Linchuchu on the ground. Linchuchu put the overcoat on the back of the chair and went into the bathroom. With the bathtub full of hot water, Linchuchu's entire body was immersed in the water, and she immediately felt warm. She quietly soaked in the water, enjoying the warm feeling of being wrapped up in water. Unknowingly, she had fallen asleep.
Chu Sichen waited outside for a long time, but he did not hear anything from the bathroom, and he did not come out either. Anxious, he pushed open the bathroom door and rushed in.
Linchuchu closed her eyes, sleeping in the water. Chu Sichen was startled and immediately pulled her out of the water. She used a towel to dry her body and covered her with his clothes, then used a blanket to wrap her up, and directly carried her down the stairs and rushed back to the hospital.
On the way, Linchuchu constantly twisted her body in Chu Sichen's embrace, as if she was resisting something or having a terrifying dream. Chu Sichen gently embraced her, and no matter how much she moved in his embrace, he kept her in his embrace.
In the hospital, the doctor had finished examining Linchuchu and told him that it was only because she was too tired, that she was too tense and that she should be fine after a good rest.
Chu Sichen was not at ease and decided to keep Linchuchu at the hospital for the night so that she could be treated in time if anything happened. He found a sickroom for Linchuchu, placed her gently on the sickbed, and carefully tucked her in. Then he sat by the window and gently held her small hand with one hand, accompanying her and watching her sleep.
Chu Sichen accompanied Linchuchu for a long time until she finally fell asleep before he left the ward.
Linchuchu slept soundly, and only when she was full did she naturally wake up. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was stunned. She was wondering why she had come to the ward.
Just as she was about to stand up and leave, she suddenly heard faint sounds of conversation coming from the entrance, one of which belonged to Chu Sichen. Linchuchu did not move, but listened carefully.
"Back then, I didn't owe Linchuchu anything, but I don't know why she kept plotting to have me die. I still can't understand why she made so many mistakes at that time, or why she wanted to harm me. But what could I do with her now? Whether I should forgive her or not, it's hard for me to decide for myself. " Chu Sichen was seriously talking about Linchuchu.
When Linchuchu heard these words, a burst of bitterness emerged in her heart. Back then, when she wanted to do that to Chu Sichen, she had also been forced into a corner and had no choice but to do so.
Just as he was thinking, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Chu Sichen walked in in with large strides.
"When did you wake up?" Chu Sichen coldly asked.
"I've been awake for a while." Linchuchu blinked her bright and clear eyes, and looked at Chu Sichen calmly.
"Did you hear what I said?" Chu Sichen's gaze was like a sword.
"I think I heard something about who you were talking about, but it was too far away and your voice was too soft. I didn't hear it clearly." Linchuchu feigned an innocent expression.
Chu Sichen looked at Linchuchu's face carefully for a long time before he turned his head this time.
"Your body is very weak, you should rest in the hospital for a few more days. During your rest period, other people will share your work, so you don't have to worry." Chu Sichen said indifferently.
"That won't do! I still need to finish the mission! " Linchuchu did not agree.
"Regarding that competition, let's postpone it until you've fully recovered." Chu Sichen very casually made his decision.
"How can this be! Other people will gossip about me! " Linchuchu didn't want to let Chu Sichen turn on the green light for her.
"Humph!" It's not because of me that you're able to enter the company. It's my right. Why can't I do that? Remember, your job is to serve me well. Don't worry about anything else. "I will tell you what I need you to do. What I don't need you to do, don't interfere too much." Chu Sichen asked arrogantly.
