Inside the hospital.
When Shen Xizhou saw An Nuan, for a moment, he thought he was seeing things.
An Nuan was in the same hospital. Could such a coincidence exist in this world?
If it hadn't happened to her, she would never have believed it.
His gaze remained fixed on An Nuan, never leaving her.
"An Nuan."
When Nan Gongjin heard the name An Nuan, he instinctively pulled An Nuan behind him, his eyes scanning the man before him with vigilance, and said coldly, "Shen Xizhou, you are truly like a shadow."
"You've even followed me to the hospital."
"Are you trying to eliminate all traces, is that it?"
"Heh, eliminate all traces?" Shen Xizhou laughed, his laughter loud and carefree. "Nan Gongjin, where do you get the idea that I want to eliminate An Nuan?"
"Is this hospital your family's? Just because you can appear here, can't I?"
"I don't care what you're here for, but Shen Xizhou, I will always be by An Nuan's side, protecting her, ensuring she is safe. As for you, if you want to touch An Nuan, give up on that idea."
"Ruo Wei is also injured, isn't it normal to come to the hospital?"
An Nuan merely glanced at Shen Xizhou, saying nothing. Her eyes were filled with contempt and sarcasm.
She realized that now, she no longer hated Shen Xizhou. In fact, she could face him with a sense of calm.
An Nuan reached out and held Nan Gongjin's hand, whispering beside him, "Nan Gongjin, it's better to avoid trouble. Once my wound is bandaged, we can leave."
"It's pointless to argue with people who are not worth our time."
"Instead of wasting time here, we might as well hurry back to the company."
Shen Xizhou looked at An Nuan, his eyes filled with disdain. He even wondered how she could say such words so calmly.
Clearly, everything had started because of her.
How could she act as if nothing had happened?
"An Nuan."
Shen Xizhou called out her name, almost through gritted teeth.
He even felt that his earlier regret was a complete joke.
His gaze fell upon An Nuan, filled with disgust, and he said coldly, "An Nuan, just now I was thinking it was all my fault, that I had misunderstood you."
"I even thought that I would, slowly, slowly compensate you, but now it seems I was being overly sentimental."
"Shen Xizhou, don't you find it ridiculous to say such things?"
"It's not that I wanted to be here, it was you, you forced me to come find you."
"If you hadn't forced me, I would never have appeared here."
"I've already said it, I won't appear before you, and please stop bothering me. But you never seem to listen, and you keep pestering me. Shen Xizhou, wasn't it you who forced me?"
"Oh, right, and Xu Ruo Wei's injury, it was indeed me. That's because she deserved it."
"Because she's despicable," An Nuan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xizhou rushed towards An Nuan, but at that moment, Nan Gongjin blocked him.
An Nuan, however, asked Nan Gongjin to move aside. Naturally, Nan Gongjin refused. But An Nuan whispered in his ear, "Nan Gongjin, I will handle this. Can you let me handle it myself?"
"But..." Nan Gongjin was reluctant to let An Nuan face this alone.
An Nuan gave Nan Gongjin a reassuring look, "Nan Gongjin, don't worry, I will handle this."
Although Nan Gongjin didn't want to back down, An Nuan's pleading eyes forced him to agree to her request.
However, he dared not divert his attention even slightly, his eyes fixed on An Nuan, thinking that if Shen Xizhou did anything to harm An Nuan, he would be there to protect her, to ensure An Nuan remained unharmed.
"An Nuan, how could you say such venomous words?"
"Heh, venomous? I don't think so."
"The deed is done, so, Mr. Shen, what do you plan to do?" An Nuan said with contempt.
"Are you planning to kill me? Or do you intend to harm me?"
Shen Xizhou hesitated. He hadn't considered what An Nuan had said.
In fact, he didn't know what to do next, or how to proceed.
It was just that seeing how good Nan Gongjin was to An Nuan, and how close they were, he felt a pang of jealousy, even a desire to destroy An Nuan.
"An Nuan, don't you think you should lower your head and apologize for doing something like this?"
"An Nuan, how can you say these words so confidently?"
Nan Gongjin pulled An Nuan into his arms, saying with concern, "An Nuan, I promised you, I would do nothing."
"But An Nuan, I just can't stand seeing anyone bully you."
"If I just stand here and watch, I can't do such a thing."
"Nan Gongjin, thank you. Thank you for always defending me, for always thinking of me like this."
An Nuan said with gratitude.
Nan Gongjin whispered, "An Nuan, you don't need to say such things to me. I've already told you."
"An Nuan, don't worry. I won't believe a single word Shen Xizhou says. In fact, I think it's beneath you to have laid a hand on Xu Ruo Wei."
"For dealing with people like her, you should have told me, and I would have handled it."
"An Nuan, you might not care about your hands, but I do, very much."
Shen Xizhou let out a cold sneer.
An Nuan glanced at Shen Xizhou, saying coldly, "Shen Xizhou, Nan Gongjin is not wrong at all."
"Can't you and Xu Ruo Wei just live peacefully? Don't appear before me."
"Your appearance before me only makes me feel disgusted and nauseous."
"Why don't you ask what Xu Ruo Wei did? Why I treated her like this?"
She had initially not wanted to explain, but in the end, she did.
Nan Gongjin wanted to step forward and speak to An Nuan, but at this moment, An Nuan directly held Nan Gongjin's hand and calmly said,
"Nan Gongjin, don't talk to them anymore."
"Let's go."
"Your wound..."
"It's fine, the doctor has already treated it."
An Nuan said to Nan Gongjin with sincerity, "Nan Gongjin, let's go. I don't want to see these two people. They are really affecting my mood."
Affecting her mood?
Shen Xizhou's bloodthirsty gaze fell upon An Nuan.
How could she say such words so lightly in front of him?
"An Nuan, you..."
An Nuan ignored what Shen Xizhou was saying and looked at Nan Gongjin, saying, "Nan Gongjin, tomorrow, we are going to get our marriage certificate. Are we going to let these unimportant people affect our mood?"
Shen Xizhou looked at An Nuan, for a moment, he doubted if he had heard her correctly.
