861 Really Good at It
“It is indeed very exciting.” She knew Lu Shaoyang was being sarcastic, but Shen Hanxing still smiled. Her eyes fell on Su Ling, and she smiled, “Especially Young Madam Lu and Young Master Lu’s performance. It’s amazing. It’s wonderful!”
“What do you mean?” Su Ling’s expression changed, and panic flashed in her eyes.
“You’re clearly in a hospital bed, but you can still do all this. I don’t have to worry about your health anymore.” Shen Hanxing’s lips curled into a sarcastic smile. “Using the gentlest and kindest tone to sow discord, Young Madam Lu, you are good at it!” She couldn’t help but give Su Ling a thumbs up. It seemed that Su Ling had also grown up. Her acting skills were becoming more and more superb, and she could easily sow discord. He was either hinting that Lu Nuannuan was insensible or trying to get Lu Shaoyang to say something that Lu Nuannuan did not like to hear, or reminding Lu Shaoyang that Lu Nuannuan was holding a grudge against him as her older brother, causing Lu Nuannuan and Lu Shaoyang to turn against each other. It was really interesting.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Su Ling clenched her fists and looked at Shen Hanxing with hatred. How could she admit to being vicious? When Lu Shaoyang looked over, she leaned against him weakly. With a pitiful and dependent tone, she said softly, as if afraid, “Mrs. Ji, I won’t pursue today’s matter. You don’t have to accuse me.”
It was as if Shen Hanxing was trying to avoid responsibility for today’s incident and deliberately slandered Su Ling.
“I’m sorry, there were witnesses when it happened. There are surveillance videos in my office too.” Shen Hanxing sneered. “Young Madam Lu knocked her stomach because she wanted to attack me. I didn’t even retaliate in self-defense. I’m ready to oblige if Young Madam Lu intends to pursue the matter. ”
Ji Yan’s cold eyes swept over, and he added indifferently, “The Ji Corporation’s legal team is prepared for you at any time.”
Su Ling’s face turned even paler.
Shen Hanxing couldn’t be bothered to watch Su Ling’s performance and sneered, “Young Madam Lu, take your time to think about it. Mr. Ji and I still have something to do, so we’ll take our leave first.” She had already done her best. After speaking, she turned around and left with Ji Yan, ignoring Lu Shaoyang’s flickering and suspicious expression.
The hospital’s elevator had stopped on the second floor for some reason. Ji Yan held Shen Hanxing’s hand and asked softly, “Why don’t we take the stairs? If you are tired, I will carry you downstairs.”
“Mr. Ji, are you looking down upon me?” Shen Hanxing chuckled when she heard that. She could easily climb up and down from the fourth floor, let alone the two floors.
“No, I just don’t want you to be tired. It’s my honor to carry Mrs. Ji downstairs,” Ji Yan said dotingly.
“Mr. Ji, you have a sweet tongue.” Hearing Ji Yan’s straightforward words of love, Shen Hanxing could not help but laugh. She turned her head to look into Ji Yan’s eyes and asked with a smile, “Is Mr. Ji teasing me?”
“I want to make you happy.” Ji Yan did not hide it and replied softly. Then, he added, “It’s also the truth.”
On the surface, Ji Yan looked cold and unapproachable, but she noticed the incredible softness under his cold and hard appearance once he was taken into his protective circle. He saw every subtle change in her and took care of every emotion of hers. Shen Hanxing’s heart felt as if it was soaked in warm water. It was warm and comfortable.
After a moment, Shen Hanxing rested her head on Ji Yan’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Ji. This small setback won’t defeat me.”
“I’m not worried that Mrs. Ji will be defeated because I know you are strong and intelligent. Mrs. Ji is invincible.” Ji Yan raised his hand and gently tucked Shen Hanxing’s hair behind her ear. He pinched her delicate chin with one hand and rubbed his thumb against the corner of her lips. He said gently, “I’m just worried you will be sad.” No matter how strong she appeared, she still had a gentle heart. He had seen how much she had helped and contributed to Josie.
Shen Hanxing had planned for Qiao Xi’s future and had thought a lot for her. She treated people with sincerity, but in the end, she was betrayed. Shen Hanxing’s heart was not made of stone. How could she not be moved?
Shen Hanxing felt as if a gentle creature had gently bumped her heart. The touch was like a colorful cloud, causing her heart to fall for it. Her Mr. Ji…
