Who moved her body?

Chapter 53 Staying together might not be true love.

Xu Haiyang, who was resting with his eyes closed, said without even opening them, "You saved my life, what's a car? Just drive it away, consider it a parting gift."

Guan Jie smiled.

Papaya gasped, his face full of surprise. Was this really the Xu Xiaodao he knew? Xu Xiaodao was known for being vindictive.

The ambulance passed the viewing platform and drove behind Dr. Chen's car towards the desolate rocky island. Papaya, who had been quietly playing on her phone, only then noticed the ambulance and asked in surprise, "That ambulance was with Dr. Chen's car? I didn't know that."

Xu Haiyang leaned forward and stretched.

"Having you as my lackey is utterly useless. I saw the car enter through the back door of the villa, how come you didn't see it?"

Papaya scratched her head. "Maybe it arrived while I was packing. But why would an ambulance go to a villa? Even if it was needed, there was no need to use the back door."

"Did you come for Miss Shan Shan?" Guan Jie asked.

"Who else could it be but her?" Xu Haiyang said casually with a yawn. "She seems to be quite ill this time, like she has a contagious disease. Didn't you see? The people carrying Shanshan downstairs were all wearing protective suits. It was so exaggerated, like something out of a movie."

Guan Jie trembled, but fortunately Xu Haiyang and Mugua didn't notice.

Papaya looked completely bewildered, asking with a mixture of curiosity and unease, "We had barbecue with Miss Shanshan yesterday, are you alright, boss? How could Miss Shanshan get sick? She's always been fine, and I've never heard of her having any infectious diseases. If she had an infectious disease, the boss wouldn't be living with her, would he?"

"Who knows? Otherwise, why would my cousin suddenly make us all go back? But I'm also curious about what's wrong with Shanshan." Xu Haiyang suddenly perked up, clapped his hands, and said, "I'm so stupid, Shanshan has actually always been sick, she just hasn't had an attack before."

Xu Haiyang turned to Guan Jie and said, "You guys don't know, I felt something was wrong when Shanshan suddenly appeared on the desolate rock island five years ago. Now that I think about it, she was already sick back then, but my cousin and Dr. Chen just kept it from everyone. I thought my cousin was infatuated with Shanshan and was always thinking about her. But from this incident, it seems that my cousin actually knew all along that Shanshan had a problem."

"If the boss knew all along that Shanshan had an infectious disease, how could he still dare to live with her? Isn't that like having a time bomb next to him? How terrifying! Is this what they call true love?" Papaya said.

"What do you know? Do you really think my cousin and Shanshan are together because of love? Give me a break." Xu Haiyang spat and said, "My cousin had just gone away for a while before Shanshan appeared, and she came back not long after. If they knew each other, it would have been around that time. But my cousin went somewhere to do a drug experiment, so there's no reason for him to fall for Shanshan by such a coincidence. And look at Shanshan, not to mention her plastic surgery face, she's not my cousin's type, and she has amnesia. Do you think my cousin would like someone like that? If you ask me, Shanshan seems more like... how should I put it, um..."

Guan Jie took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.

Papaya chimed in, "What does it look like?"

"The test subjects," Guan Jie said.

Xu Haiyang slapped his thigh, as if struck by a sudden realization, and said, "Right, right, experimental subjects. Haha, that's a great word."

Papaya was even more puzzled.

"Experimental subject? Shanshan is a human, how could she be an experimental subject? And infectious diseases, aren't infectious diseases always contagious? Why are they only spreading now?"

"Calling you Papaya is too kind of you. You might as well change your name to Fool," Xu Haiyang sighed. "Who is my cousin? He's a medical doctor who graduated from a top medical school. When he was in college, he kept more than a dozen lab mice, feeding them medicine and giving them injections every day. I think Shanshan is his lab mouse. Living and eating together is purely for research purposes. I think he's been waiting for this moment to see when Shanshan will get sick."

"Does the boss like Shanshan?" Guan Jie asked.

Xu Haiyang chuckled.

"When have you ever seen a medical student fall in love with a lab mouse?"

……

Xu Haiyang went straight to Situ Feng's villa as soon as he arrived on the island.

Uncle Zhao nodded slightly to Xu Haiyang with a respectful but expressionless expression.

"Young Master has already told Young Madam and the young master and young lady that you rushed back from your overseas vacation to reunite with your family and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together. You returned to Huangyan Island as soon as your plane from Bali landed at seven o'clock this morning. The gifts for the young master and young lady have been delivered, and they both like them very much."

Xu Haiyang gave a playful smirk and nodded. "Thank you for your trouble, Uncle Zhao."

Looking at Uncle Zhao's tall, even somewhat cold, back, Xu Haiyang stroked his chin.

"Uncle!"

A slightly awkward but clear shout interrupted Xu Haiyang's thoughts. Xu Haiyang turned around and saw two little guys who looked exactly like Situ Feng giggling at him.

"My little angels, I'm here!"

As Xu Haiyang spoke, he stretched out his arms and, before the two little ones could run away, pulled them into his arms and picked them up, one in each hand.

"As soon as I heard you were coming, I decided not to go on vacation. How about that, Uncle? Aren't I being really nice? Shouldn't I get a reward?"

The two doll-like children giggled and then kissed Xu Haiyang on the cheek at the same time. Xu Haiyang smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.

Situ Feng and Alice came out. Alice was so gentle that she didn't look like an American woman. Her loving face made her look like the Virgin Mary who had stepped out of a church painting, radiating maternal glow.

"Come on, come down quickly."

Alice speaks fluent Chinese and English.

The children got down from Xu Haiyang's arms and ran towards the garden, laughing.

Alice said apologetically, "Quickly wipe it off, your face is covered in their saliva."

"Even saliva smells good. I wish I could smell it every day." Xu Haiyang gently wiped his cheek with the back of his hand and even smelled it with a smile.

Alice was amused by Xu Haiyang. Situ Feng put his arm around Alice and said to Xu Haiyang in a brotherly tone, "You like children so much, you should settle down and start a family soon. Once you become a father, you won't always be thinking about going out to play."

Xu Haiyang winked mischievously at Alice.

"Sister-in-law, you have to keep an eye on my brother, don't let him pressure me into marriage."

"Stop being silly. I wouldn't dare force you into marriage; I'm afraid you'll ruin her life." Situ Feng looked at Xu Haiyang and said, "After dinner, take Alice and the children for a stroll in Wilderness City. Remember to be back before dinner."

"Leave it to me, I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

As Xu Haiyang and Alice left through the porch, Dr. Chen hurriedly entered through the back door.

Several grapevines were planted against the wall in the garden. The green grapes were almost transparent, revealing the grape seeds inside in the sunlight. The purple amethysts looked like sculpted works of art, so beautiful that it was hard to look away.

"I want to eat that skewer."

"I want the big one."

……

Xu Haiyang carried over a three-meter-high A-frame ladder and said to the brother and sister who were jumping around under the grapevines, wanting to eat grapes, "Uncle will pick them for you. Eat as many as you want, but you have to save some for Uncle, otherwise I won't pick any for you."

"Okay, Uncle, I'll definitely save the biggest one for you." The younger brother gestured with his hand in a childish voice.

The older sister quickly picked up the bamboo basket, held it above her head, and waited for the grapes to fall onto it.

"Okay, I'll go pick some for you right away. Choose carefully, and then point them out to me."

"Left, then right... not that string."

"Under the leaves, oh dear, wrong, haha..."

The children always seemed dissatisfied with the bunch they picked, always feeling that the bunch on the shelf was the one they wanted most.

The bamboo basket was almost overflowing with grapes. The little girl handed the basket to Alice, and she and her brother continued to direct Xu Haiyang to pick the bunch they wanted.

Xu Haiyang patiently moved the ladder from one tree to another, and tirelessly sat at the top of the ladder to ask the children for their answers.

Xu Haiyang was shocked when the largest and brightest bunch of purple grapes was picked.

"It's as big as a table tennis ball!"

The children cheered with joy at their discovery, while Xu Haiyang held the grapes up in front of him, examining the huge bunch of grapes as if they were sacred objects.

Through the purple gaps, Situ Feng and Dr. Chen walked out of the back door of the villa and turned onto a path buried in bushes.
