Chapter 9: Chapter 9: The One Who Took Care of You for Three Years Is Me
Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Zixi walked out of the manor villa and saw an uncle standing respectfully by the car, waiting for her.
She remembered now, this uncle was the one she ran into after leaving her room this morning.
He Jingyao seemed to address him as Uncle Li.
“Miss Su,” Uncle Li opened the car door for her and made a respectful gesture, “Please.”
Su Zixi quickly thanked him, bent down, and got into the car.
Uncle Li got into the driver’s seat, started the vehicle, and asked, “Miss Su, where are you headed?”
“Please take me to Yanzhou University, if that’s okay,” she said after thinking for a moment.
Now, the only place she could go was the school.
Su Zixi was 21 this year, a third-year university student. She usually lived in the school dormitory and only occasionally returned home. Yesterday, she had just planned to go home to pick up some clothes, but who would have thought that Su Lianxi would set her up?
After this, there was no way she would be able to go back to that home anymore.
Thinking of this, Su Zixi felt a slight sourness in her nose.
“Alright,” Uncle Li responded with a smile, “Miss Su, what do you think of our young master?”
Su Zixi was stunned; the pitch-black and deep eyes of He Jingyao immediately appeared in her mind. That scorching gaze always made her feel as if she was naked in his eyes.
Su Zixi’s heart tightened suddenly.
It was Ning Yichen.
Why was he waiting for her here? Didn’t he go on a date with Su Lianxi this morning?
At this moment, Ning Yichen looked up and saw her. His gaze deepened, and he walked toward her slowly.
“Ning Yichen, what do you want?” Su Zixi’s voice carried a hint of tension.
She once thought she knew this man very well, but she knew the man lying unconscious in the hospital bed, not the one full of oppressive presence now.
“Su Zixi,” Ning Yichen said flatly, his voice devoid of any warmth, “I heard from Lianxi that after we left this morning, He Family’s young master appeared suddenly, not only taking you away but also threatening Uncle Su.”
Su Zixi clenched her fists tightly, looking up at him, “So what if it’s true?”
“I don’t care what misunderstandings there are between you and Lianxi, nor do I care what grievances you have against Uncle Su,” Ning Yichen’s expression turned cold, “But I won’t allow anyone to harm Lianxi or the family she cares about. So, if you dare to hurt Lianxi, thinking you have Young Master He backing you up, I will not let you off! And, remind Young Master He that if he is unfavorable to the Su Family, he is acting against my Ning Family!”
Su Zixi opened her mouth, wanting to explain that she was not that kind of person, but the words turned into, “Ning Yichen, do you trust Su Lianxi that much?”
“Not only do I trust her, I love her,” Ning Yichen said without hesitation, “Back then, when I became a vegetative patient, lying on the hospital bed for three years, Lianxi took care of me for that entire time! To me, she is the most important person!”
Su Zixi felt her throat choke up.
She wanted to say that the person who took care of him for three full years was her.
But Ning Yichen would never believe it. Because the first person he saw when he woke up was Su Lianxi.
For three years, except for classes and part-time jobs, she had spent all her time in the hospital taking care of him, but Ning Yichen didn’t know.
