She was originally beautiful, and the usual makeup on her face made her temperament even better. However, now that she looked sickly, it made her look even more like a sick beauty. As a man, when he saw his woman looking so haggard, he would always feel some pity in his heart.
Lu Yihan took a pillow and placed it under her waist. He then helped her adjust the height of the bed before pulling a chair over to sit on the edge of the bed. He said in all seriousness, "Ruoruo, why did you have to wait for me in that situation last night? Don't do such silly things in the future. Your body is your own. Have you ever thought about what might happen if there were any accidents? "
"Do you know how long it's been since you cared about me like this?"
Lan Ruoran had undergone minor surgery, so when she spoke, she sounded a little weak. But when she looked into Lu Yihan's eyes, there was a deep longing. "It's just appendicitis. It'll be fine once it's removed. But I know … that you haven't been paying attention to me recently. If I hadn't gotten into trouble last night, you probably wouldn't have come to see me. Fei — "
Her voice was weak, but his name was enchanting. She reached over and grabbed Lu Yihan's hand. Because the back of her hand was still connected to an IV drip, her hands were exceptionally cold. She refused to let go and looked at Lu Yihan fervently. "About what happened last time … I've already explained it to you. Could it be that you still can't forgive me? I really didn't do anything to betray you. Don't be so cold to me. You know that in this world, you're the only one I have left. You're ignoring me. I really feel so pitiful … You know that I can't have another child. You know this. Five years ago, I — "
"Stop talking!"
Lu Yihan's heart suddenly hurt. He frowned and interrupted Lan Ruoran. "Don't talk about what happened five years ago."
"Han."
Lan Ruoran panicked. She probably didn't expect Lu Yihan to interrupt her at this time. Why shouldn't she talk about it?
Shouldn't he feel a deep sense of guilt for what happened five years ago? Why … didn't he want to say it?
In the past, Lu Yihan's attitude towards her was always doting. No matter what she said or did, he rarely objected. But now, Lan Ruoran realized that Lu Yihan seemed to be getting more and more distant from her. This feeling made her uneasy and nervous. It was very bad.
"Why can't you tell me?"
Lan Ruoran frowned and looked at Lu Yihan pitifully. Her voice was full of grievances as she said, "I've lost a lot of things because of you. I thought I would never mention it again in my life. If it weren't for that groundless report, I wouldn't have told you. I also want to bear children for you. I really do … but now I …"
"Ruoruo, I told you to stop talking. Did you hear me?"
Lan Ruoran's face was as white as a ghost. She stared fixedly at Lu Yihan. The man in front of her had cold features and his eyes were hazy. She didn't know what she had said wrong and looked at him anxiously.
Lu Yihan pursed his lips. He didn't want this feeling to spread in his chest. He always felt guilty towards her. For her to become like this today, perhaps … it was all his fault.
He suppressed his desire to sigh and steadied his emotions. Finally, he said, "There are some things that I don't want to talk about anymore, but you're always like this … Ruoruo, you weren't like this in the past, did you know? The first time, you told me that you were pregnant. But half a month later, you told me that you weren't pregnant. At that time, you made up an excuse. Do you still remember what it was? "
"…"
Lan Ruoran's lips trembled. Her hands gripped the bedsheets tightly. Her hands and feet were ice-cold.
"Are you panicking and confused right now? Then let me tell you. Actually, that's how I feel right now. I told you before that the thing I hate the most is being lied to. You've been by my side for so many years. Was I not good enough to you? Why did you lie to me time and time again? I'm not an idiot. At that time, you told me that the doctor gave you the wrong report. That's why you thought you were pregnant. But after that, you told me … you had surgery in England five years ago. Since then, you can't have children. Ruoruo, do you know that your words don't add up? Do you know that a person needs to use countless lies to cover up the first lie? How many lies have you told me? Do you still remember? It's not that I don't want to be by your side. You're using this method to make me alienate you. "
"…"
Lan Ruoran, along with the last trace of blood on her lips, was completely drained. Too many things had happened recently, so she was indeed a little flustered. When the news came out that day, she only wanted to win a round, but she forgot that she had previously told Lu Yihan that the fake pregnancy was because the doctor had given her the wrong report …
She was like a mouse that had fallen into a dead end. She was chased by a cat from behind and there was no way out in front of her. She didn't even have time to dig a hole and hide in it.
She panicked and her voice trembled. "… No, Han, I … No, I didn't. I didn't do it on purpose. Believe me, I really …"
"Don't say anymore."
Lu Yihan reached out and massaged his throbbing temples. He couldn't bear to see her so haggard.
But it was understandable that he was disappointed. At that time, Lan Ruoran thought that he would feel guilty when she said that she had lost Lu Yihan's child in England five years ago. He did feel guilty, but when he connected the dots, he couldn't tell how many things this woman had been hiding from him all this time.
"… If you say too much now, it will only make me wonder how much of what you're saying is true. I really don't want to see you recently, but I know that you've done a lot for me. I still say the same thing. I don't want to treat you badly. If you need anything, you can look for my assistant. I'll send a caretaker to take care of you. "
"Yihan, I don't want …"
When Lan Ruoran heard this, she immediately struggled to get up and tried to grab Lu Yihan's hand. "… I don't want a caretaker. Yihan, do you not want me anymore? I … I didn't mean to lie to you. Listen to me … "
"You don't have to say anything now."
Lu Yihan frowned. His cool fingers reached out and pressed on the back of her hand, forcefully pulling her hand away from his wrist. His low voice was cold and stern. "I'll give you time to recuperate. When you understand everything, come and look for me. I'll give you a chance to explain everything to me. You'll only have this one chance. Tell me the whole truth. Now, don't say anything. Rest well. If you need anything, just tell my assistant. He'll take care of everything for you. I'll leave first. "
"…"
Lan Ruoran's pupils contracted violently. Lu Yihan had already turned and walked towards the door of the ward. She looked at the tall man who used to be by her side day and night. Now, he was walking towards the door of the ward mercilessly. Her mind was filled with his cold words just now.
She was so flustered that she was completely flustered. The person she used to think she had firmly controlled had suddenly turned against her. He even saw through too many things that she shouldn't have seen through. She opened her mouth to call out to him, but she realized that her voice was stuck in her throat. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shout.
The door was slammed shut with a loud bang.
Lan Ruoran's heart thumped. She instantly fell into an endless abyss. It was pitch-black and so lonely.
Her scarlet eyes flickered, and gradually, the light of resentment gathered in them.
Why did things turn out like this? Why … was Lu Yihan suddenly so cold towards her? Was it because she had lied? No, he used to be so infatuated with her. Now, he was so cold towards her. This couldn't be because of her …
Leng Xinyu. Yes, it's her!
It must be her!
Ever since she came back to D City, everything was out of her control. If she didn't come back, if Leng Xinyu didn't exist in this world, she, Lan Ruoran, wouldn't have gotten to where she was today. She was Lu Yihan's wife. Leng Xinyu was a latecomer. Why was she able to enjoy such treatment?
Why?
…
She clenched her hands tightly. The IV needle on the back of her left hand was about to fall out. She simply reached out, gritted her teeth, and pulled out the IV needle from the back of her hand. She flipped over and took out her phone from the drawer of the bedside table. Her cold fingers quickly tapped on the screen and quickly found the number. Lan Ruoran took a deep breath. Pursing her lips, she dialed the number.
— — I won't let this go. I definitely won't let Leng Xinyu off so easily. She must be living too comfortably. She already has Qin Fangang, but she still wants to snatch Lu Yihan away. This slut. She made my life so miserable. I'll definitely make her lose her reputation!
…
In the end, if Lan Ruoran was the one who couldn't get what she wanted, then Leng Xinyu was the one who was least likely to be happy in this world!
Tang Miao sat in her seat. The man opposite her had a serious expression on his face. There were a few stacks of documents on the table. Neither of them spoke. The quiet atmosphere was especially eerie. Tang Miao's uneasiness grew.
Her hands were tightly clenched under the table. Her long eyelashes fluttered from time to time. She glanced at Ji Yang, who was sitting opposite her, and then quickly lowered her eyes.
"…"
This man was Qin Fangang's most capable assistant. Now that Qin Fangang was in charge of the entire Lu Clan, Ji Yang's status wasn't low either. Although there was still Master Lu under him, Ji Yang's ability to work was obvious to everyone. After all, he was Qin Fangang's right-hand man.
Hence, when the young girls in the company were infatuated with Boss Qin, they would mention the man beside him. Just like Boss Qin, Assistant Ji rarely smiled.
