Xu Chuxue smiled.

"Director Lin is a very busy person. I just asked you for a favor, but there's been no news for several days, so I had to come to you myself."

"I've had a lot of surgeries lately, so I really can't find the time."

Lin Zhuozhong's slightly heavy footsteps could be heard from inside the room.

Then came the sound of Xu Chuxue's high heels.

There's a feeling of being pressed closer and closer.

"Really? Then I'll look for someone else. Don't blame me if I accidentally say something wrong."

"You..." Lin Zhuozhong took a deep breath, "Xu Wantang has already broken her bone, why are you doing this unnecessary thing? Anyway, she can't affect you now."

Hearing my own name called.

Xu Wantang quickly covered her mouth and nose, afraid that her breathing would disturb the people inside.

What does Xu Chuxue want Lin Zhuozhong to do to her?

The next second, Xu Chuxue's voice became more ruthless.

"Director Lin, we're all smart people. What I want is for her to never have any influence over me in my entire life."

"But she's the third young master's wife now!" Lin Zhuozhong said worriedly.

"Do you really think that my standing here doesn't have anything to do with you, Third Young Master? Or do you want everyone to know your secret...?"

Xu Chuxue suddenly lowered her voice.

Xu Wantang only heard the word "secret," and in order to hear it clearly, she had to get even closer to the door.

I accidentally bumped my leg cast against the tiles, making a dull thud.

"Who?"

Then came the sound of Xu Chuxue's high heels.

Fortunately, Xu Wantang had observed the surroundings beforehand and, dragging his legs, hid in the emergency exit.

Without daring to delay for a moment, I went downstairs.

the other side.

Xu Chuxue pulled up her mask and rushed out of the ward, only to find it completely empty.

Lin Zhuozhong followed closely behind, looked around, and then looked at the central air conditioning unit on the ceiling.

"Are you sure you heard me right? This air conditioner makes strange noises from time to time, and we're reporting it for repair."

Xu Chuxue looked up, just as the central air conditioning was making a muffled sound.

It did sound very similar to the voice she heard.

Turning her gaze away, Xu Chuxue was about to return to the ward when she noticed some strange debris by the door.

She crouched down: "What is this?"

Lin Zhuozhong rubbed a little bit of it and asked in confusion, "It looks like plaster."

Xu Chuxue's face turned pale instantly, a terrible thought making her restless.

She pushed Lin Zhuozhong aside and rushed into the elevator.

In a flash, she arrived at Xu Wantang's hospital room.

Pushing open the door, Xu Wantang was not in the room.

Xu Chuxue grabbed a passing nurse: "Where's Xu Wantang?"

The nurse glanced around the ward: "She must have gone downstairs for some fresh air..."

Before the nurse could finish speaking, Xu Chuxue turned and went downstairs.

……

Downstairs in the inpatient building.

It was slow and inconvenient for Xu Wantang to go upstairs with her leg in a cast.

So she did not choose to go upstairs back to her ward.

Instead, after going down one floor, they took the downward elevator back to the first floor of the inpatient department.

But she understands Xu Chuxue just as Xu Chuxue understands her.

It's impossible for things to just end like this.

Xu Wantang sat in a borrowed wheelchair, seemingly casually strolling around the street to get some fresh air.

In reality, she was waiting.

Suddenly, a car appeared in front of them, honking its horn frantically as it sped toward Xu Wantang.

Xu Wantang was startled and tried to get up, but she couldn't lift her feet no matter what she did.

Finally, in a panic, he tumbled awkwardly from his wheelchair to the ground.

The car came to an abrupt stop just as it was about to reach them.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Xu, I hope I didn't scare you. I'm used to driving abroad, and I haven't gotten used to cars in China yet."

Xu Chuxue got out of the car wearing a mask and walked quickly to Xu Wantang.

He seemed anxious, but showed no intention of helping Xu Wantang.

Instead, he stared at Xu Wantang's legs and couldn't resist making a sarcastic remark.

"Miss Xu, look at you, why are you lying on the ground like a dog? Let me help you up."

It was supposed to be a helping hand, but in reality it was a very forceful pull, and he even secretly and deliberately kicked Xu Wantang's leg.

Xu Wantang screamed, "My leg! Miss Xina, I can't move my leg right now. Could you please call a nurse for me?"

Xu Chuxue looked at her for two seconds and then let go of her.

"Okay, I'll go find a nurse for you."

After walking a distance, she suddenly turned back.

Xu Wantang was clutching her leg, looking pained, and even sweating from the pain.

Only then did she dare to be certain that Xu Wantang was not capable of running up and down the stairs to eavesdrop on her and Lin Zhuozhong's conversation.

The nurse quickly took Xu Wantang back to her ward.

The attending physician followed closely behind, and after a series of examinations, his expression turned grave.

"I've already told you not to move your legs around, so it looks like I'll have to treat you again."

"Doctor, please help me, I still want to dance in the future."

With red eyes, Xu Wantang pleaded with the doctor.

"I'll do my best, but you should stay in bed and rest for now."

After saying that, the doctor left the ward.

Xu Wantang leaned against the headboard, her face ashen.

After listening to the conversation, Xu Chuxue smiled through her mask.

He then walked up to Xu Wantang with eyes full of comfort.

"Ms. Xu, it's my fault. I will pay for your medical expenses."

As she spoke, she opened her wallet and deliberately made an "ouch" sound.

"Look at my memory, cashless payment is all the rage in China now, and I don't have enough money on me."

"How about this, I'll give you these earrings as collateral. They're a new seasonal style that my boyfriend bought for me overseas."

"It might not be as good as what the Third Young Master bought for you, but it's still worth 120,000. Don't look down on it."

She spread out her full, round pearl earrings in front of Xu Wantang.

They even thoughtfully showcased the brand.

It's a brand that Cen Shichuan really likes.

Most of his cufflinks were designed by this designer.

To differentiate between retail items and bespoke pieces, designers will engrave the initials of the designer's name in a specific location on bespoke pieces.

The earrings are engraved with SC, Shi Chuan.

Xu Chuxue used the most generous attitude to humiliate Xu Wantang, whom Cen Shichuan considered cheap.

This is almost an overt hint.

She was eager for Xu Wantang to discover her relationship with Cen Shichuan.

She just wanted Xu Wantang to cause trouble.

In this way, she can be like before again.

They stand on moral high ground to accuse Xu Wantang of being suspicious and framing others, making everyone hate Xu Wantang.

Xu Wantang lowered her eyes, making it impossible to read her expression.

She tremblingly reached out to take the pearl earring.

Suddenly, she covered her head.

"Excuse me, Ms. Sheena, my head hurts so much. I want to be alone for a while. Let's just let it go this time. I know you didn't mean it."

She buried her face in the pillow, gripping it tightly with both hands.

It seems like he's in a lot of pain.

Xu Chuxue watched for a while, then, feeling rather awkward, casually replied with a "get some rest" and left.

One minute later.

Xu Wantang slowly raised her head, her face showing no tears or sadness, only regret for the earrings.

How can it not be a pity?

That's over ten thousand.

But after taking the earrings, Xu Chuxue would have to spread rumors and cause trouble in front of Cen Shichuan, which would bring a lot of trouble.

So she simply pretended to have a headache and acted as if she hadn't seen it.

After all, she is now a heartbroken woman who can no longer dance due to a leg injury.

In fact, Xu Wantang had long known that Xu Chuxue would not let her go.

The crash was to test her instinctive reaction.

Fortunately, she was prepared.

I sent a message to the doctor in advance.

This finally convinced Xu Chuxue that her leg injury was so serious that it was impossible for her to be eavesdropping.

But now is not the time for her to let her guard down.

Her mind was filled with Xu Chuxue's words.

What I want is for her to never have any impact on me.

"Do you really think my standing here doesn't have anything to do with the Third Young Master?"

Clearly, Cen Shichuan wanted the doctor to completely ruin her leg.

And what are the doctor's secrets?

Xu Wantang felt that everything she experienced in her dream was just the tip of the iceberg of the truth.

Just thinking about it made her break out in a cold sweat.

She propped herself up, intending to wash her face.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, a sharp pain shot through his ankle, and he immediately knelt down.

Just then, a pair of men's leather shoes stopped in front of her.

"What are you asking for this time?"
