Xiao Yunyun sneered madly in her heart.
According to Lin Zhixia’s logic, the wound on her right hand could be blamed on her, but she had never planned to do so.
Since they were both grown-ups, they’d better take responsibility for their actions and choices instead of blindly hating others, right?
“Xiao Yunyun.” Lin Zhixia walked over with a grim look and said, “Don’t look at me like that. Do you think you won?”
Xiao Yunyun tilted her head indifferently. “Have we ever had a match? If yes, it seems that I did win. But I’m not surprised at all. What are you excited about?”
What she meant was that there was no doubt that she could beat Lin Zhixia. It was not surprising or amazing to her at all. On the contrary, it seemed that Lin Zhixia had never figured out the situation.
“Xiao Yunyun!” Lin Zhixia shouted in a low voice. Her beautiful eyes were filled with surging hatred. “You’ve gone too far just because you have a good background!”
Lin Zhixia had always thought that she had already driven Xiao Yunyun into her doom. If it hadn’t been for the sudden intervention of Lu Enterprises in this matter, the person who was being despised by the public would have been Xiao Yunyun instead of her!
Xiao Yunyun really couldn’t understand such a strange logic. She laughed sarcastically and said, “Why do you like to blame others? Why don’t you say that you think too highly of yourself and are too proud? Also, if you have no high IQ, don’t play tricks. Otherwise, if the truth is revealed, you will be the one to suffer.”
“Don’t put on airs and teach me a lesson. You’re just lucky to have a backer like Lu Enterprises!” Lin Zhixia’s eyes were wide open, full of unwillingness, looking as if she wanted to swallow Xiao Yunyun alive.
“You know that I have such a powerful backer as Lu Enterprises, but why did you still plot against me?” Xiao Yunyun looked at Lin Zhixia and asked, “Are you coming to make a joke?”
Lin Zhixia looked at Shen Yuechuan sadly and desperately.
She had thought that she could win this man’s heart, and that this man could at least protect her.
But in the end, for the sake of Xiao Yunyun, he saw others throw her into hell with his own eyes, but he was completely indifferent.
She had thought that she had met the gentlest man in the world, but actually, he was the most ruthless man in the world.
For a moment, Lin Zhixia seemed to be ignited by anger. She rushed to Xiao Yunyun and said, “Xiao Yunyun, I hate you!”
Xiao Yunyun had no doubt that if Lin Zhixia held a knife in her hand at this moment, she would stab it into her heart without hesitation.
What was even more terrifying was that her right leg had not yet recovered, so she could not run away!
Nevertheless, Shen Yuechuan was standing behind her.
Shen Yuechuan quickly pushed Xiao Yunyun away and stopped Lin Zhixia who was rushing over. He gave Lin Zhixia a hard push, which made her retreat awkwardly and almost fall onto the grass.
“Shen Yuechuan!” Lin Zhixia yelled hysterically. “Why did you treat me like this?! Why?!”
“It’s you who violated our cooperation agreement.” Shen Yuechuan remained unmoved. “Besides, I’ve never intended to treat you in any other way.”
Only then did Lin Zhixia realize that the reason why Shen Yuechuan took care of her like a gentleman and made her comfortable was that he treated her as his partner.
In other words, Shen Yuechuan was not being nice to her, but was trying to maintain cooperation.
However, Shen Yuechuan should not have let her misunderstand that he liked her, and he should not have gotten her into such a big trouble!
“I hate you!” Lin Zhixia roared hysterically. “Shen Yuechuan, Xiao Yunyun, I curse that you’re doomed to tragedy!”
Xiao Yunyun calmly pointed to the sky and said, “God is busy. If you speak louder, he might hear you.”
Lin Zhixia sneered and said, “Xiao Yunyun, I swear that you won’t be arrogant for long!”
“Really?” Xiao Yunyun said with a slight smile, “I don’t believe it.”
As soon as she finished her words, Xiao Yunyun called the security guards to drive Lin Zhixia away.
Xiao Yunyun took a sigh of relief and looked innocent. “Since she thinks I’m arrogant, I’ll show her what it means to be really arrogant.”
Shen Yuechuan smiled helplessly. “Let’s go back to the ward. You should rest early today.”
Xiao Yunyun nodded. “OK.”
Shen Yuechuan pushed Xiao Yunyun and was about to leave. As soon as he turned around, a magnetic male voice came from behind him. “Yuechuan.”
The voice was very strange, so Xiao Yunyun subconsciously judged that it came to bother them again. She impatiently said, “Who is it again? Can you not be so annoying? It’s so late!”
Shen Yuechuan pushed Xiao Yunyun and turned back, and Xiao Yunyun saw clearly who it was.
It was a man.
He was a little taller than Lu Boyan, and as good-looking as Su Yicheng. He wore dark casual clothes, a pair of intimidating boots, and his black short hair. He exuded a dark and mysterious aura, appearing to be celibate. This man made it hard for people to breathe.
He was like the mysterious and powerful character in a TV series. He lived like a legend and rarely showed up. But when he appeared, it must be because of great incidents, or someone’s fate would be changed.
However, he was not as amiable as the actors in the TV series. He was too mysterious and dangerous, which was so terrifying!
This man was like the King of Darkness who had just come out of the gate of hell. Even the gods and Buddhas couldn’t resist him. He was cold-blooded and cruel. Even if there were blood flowing like a river in front of him, he wouldn’t blink.
Xiao Yunyun was so scared that she was in a daze. She held Shen Yuechuan’s hand tightly and asked, “Can, can… can you defeat him?”
Shen Yuechuan shook his head. “To be honest, I can’t.”
Xiao Yunyun almost cried and said, “Then let’s run!”
But Shen Yuechuan just asked calmly, “Don’t you remember him?”
Xiao Yunyun said in confusion, “Ah?” After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that she seemed to have seen this person at the birth of Xiyu and Xiangyi. And on the island, Xu Youning had called him Seventh Brother!
Xiao Yunyun finally remembered that he was Mu Sijue, but on the island, he didn’t seem to be so terrifying!
Xiao Yunyun asked in a trembling voice, “How did he become so terrifying?”
Shen Yuechuan shrugged and said, “He has been like this since Xu Youning left. Oh, he had been like this before Xu Youning got close to him.”
Before Xiao Yunyun could understand Shen Yuechuan’s words, Mu Sijue had already come over. She subconsciously called out respectfully, “Seventh Brother!”
Mu Sijue felt that there was something wrong with Xiao Yunyun’s voice, so he asked, “Is she injured so badly?”
“It’s quite serious,” Shen Yuechuan said, “but she is more scared by you.”
Mu Sijue said with a look of indifference, “What does it have to do with me?”
Xiao Yunyun hurriedly shook her head and said, “Seventh Brother, it’s none of your business!”
It was all her fault for being so timid. It had nothing to do with Mu Sijue!
Xiao Yunyun promised that even if she were given nine lives, she wouldn’t dare to blame Mu Sijue.
Shen Yuechuan stroked Xiao Yunyun’s head and said to Mu Sijue, “I’ll send her back first.”
After entering the elevator, Xiao Yunyun asked in confusion, “Why do you send me back to the ward first? What are you going to do with Seventh Brother?”
“He came to me probably for some reason,” Shen Yuechuan said, “but he didn’t say it out in front of you, which means that you shouldn’t listen to it. You stay in the ward.”
Before she could protest, Shen Yuechuan had already left the ward.
Mu Sijue was downstairs in the inpatient building of the orthopedics department. Shen Yuechuan soon found him and asked directly, “What’s the matter?”
“How is Yunyun’s injury?” Mu Sijue asked in reply.
Shen Yuechuan shook his head. “The experts have had a consultation, but the result is not satisfying. I plan to…”
“Stop it.” Mu Sijue interrupted Shen Yuechuan, “Give me the results of Yunyun’s examination.”
“You?” Shen Yuechuan looked at Mu Sijue in disbelief.
Mu Sijue was a man of few words, and he only said two words, “My friend.”
Shen Yuechuan had to be cautious when it came to Xiao Yunyun’s life. He asked the nurse to fetch the results of Xiao Yunyun’s examination and asked Mu Sijue, “Can you tell me in detail about your friend?”
“He has learned traditional Chinese medicine from his elders since he was a child. He may find a cure for diseases which Western medicine can’t cure.” Mu Sijue said, “You can trust him.”
“I really can’t trust a person I’ve never met.” Shen Yuechuan smiled and added, “But I trust you.”
Mu Sijue glanced at Shen Yuechuan and said, “So, I should thank you?”
“No, I should thank you.” Shen Yuechuan paused for a moment and then asked tentatively, “Did you come to City A just for Yunyun?”
“There’s something else.” Mu Sijue obviously had no intention of talking about it. “Go upstairs and keep Yunyun company. I’m leaving.”
“Wait.” Shen Yuechuan stopped Mu Sijue. “How sure is your friend in curing Yunyun’s injury?”
Perhaps because of his growing environment, Shen Yuechuan didn’t care about the gains and losses of some things. He would have a casual attitude to the meeting and parting of people around him.
This was the first time that he had been so cautious as to ask Mu Sijue for confirmation. Mu Sijue saw how nervous he was about Xiao Yunyun.
“Don’t worry too much.” Mu Sijue said, “Mu Fifth snuck out and broke its leg before, and he set the broken bone for it.”
Mu Fifth was a Samoyed in Mu Sijue’s family.
Shen Yuechuan wanted to beat him, but when he thought that he couldn’t defeat Mu Sijue at all, he just said, “Get out!”
Mu Sijue calmly turned around and walked away, while Shen Yuechuan went back to the ward.
Xiao Yunyun had been waiting for Shen Yuechuan. As soon as she saw him, she asked, “What are you talking about? You just talked for so long.”
Shen Yuechuan reported Mu Sijue’s words to Xiao Yunyun with a complicated look. Of course, he didn’t forget to emphasize that Mu Fifth was a pet dog.
Xiao Yunyun was also in a complicated mood. “So, the friend of Seventh Brother—is a veterinarian?”
Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s not impossible.”
“If that’s the case, then I have only one question left—” Xiao Yunyun asked seriously, “Can you tell me why a pet’s ranking is higher than Seventh Brother’s?”
The reason why they called Mu Sijue Seventh Brother was that he ranked seventh in his generation in the Mu family.
His pet was called Mu Fifth, which meant that it ranked higher than him. It was very strange!
Shen Yuechuan said, “We also find it strange, but we dare not ask.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Xiao Yunyun said with a smile, “But I’m suddenly not afraid of Seventh Brother.”
Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun curiously. “You were scared to death just now, weren’t you?”
Xiao Yunyun sighed and said, “But thinking that Seventh Brother’s ranking is lower than that of a dumb Samoyed, I don’t think he’s scaring anymore.”
“…”
Xiao Yunyun’s words were somewhat reasonable, and Shen Yuechuan did not know how to refute them…
