Sheng Yanxiao woke up that very night, but quickly fell asleep again. The next morning when he opened his eyes, he saw a fluffy head lying by his bedside. When he moved a little, a sharp pain shot through him, and he couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Su Weiyi woke up immediately. Her hair was a bit messy; the pretty see-through bangs she had styled so well now had a single strand sticking up, like a hedgehog.

Su Weiyi couldn’t care less what her hair looked like. She grabbed Sheng Yanxiao’s hand nervously. "How are you? Is anything uncomfortable?"

Sheng Yanxiao’s shoulder actually hurt like hell, but right now all his attention was on the hand she was clutching.

Su Weiyi’s dark eyes were full of tension, and in those small pupils, slowly, there was only him. Sheng Yanxiao’s heart was instantly filled to the brim.

He had just gotten back yesterday. Thinking of how these past few days Su Weiyi had been sending him messages on and off, he couldn’t help heading straight to her apartment as soon as he got off the plane. Whether things were what he imagined or not, he just wanted to see her.

But when he got to her apartment, there was no one there. Sheng Yanxiao stood by the tree downstairs and waited. He waited a long time and still didn’t see her come back. He was, after all, a patient man.

It wasn’t until his phone rang, until he heard, through the receiver, a very fuzzy but extremely familiar voice, that Sheng Yanxiao’s whole body went taut.

She was crying for help. In that instant, all his reactions focused on his two legs, and he ran out like the wind.

He didn’t know where she was. He even forgot that what he should have done first was make calls, mobilize all the power of Shengshi Group to find her.

But thankfully, Su Weiyi was actually not far from him.

Now, looking at her, Sheng Yanxiao’s lips curved faintly. He wanted to speak; he moved his lips, but no sound came out. Su Weiyi clearly misunderstood what he meant. She released his hand. "I’ll go get the doctor."

Then she rushed out in a hurry.

Si Nian also ran over early in the morning. The doctor had just finished examining Sheng Yanxiao. Si Nian was standing in the corridor making a call, then said to Su Weiyi, "Su Goddess, it’s Aunt on the phone. She wants to ask how you’re doing."

Su Weiyi got up and went outside to answer it. Si Nian took the opportunity to slip in. As soon as Su Weiyi closed the ward door, Si Nian immediately put on a gloating expression. "Brother Xiao, not bad, huh? Hero saving the beauty."

The head of Sheng Yanxiao’s bed had been raised a little, which allowed him to look at Si Nian quite easily. He swept him a glance, faintly, the look saying: you sure talk a lot.

Si Nian couldn’t care less about his coldness, and laughed. "Uncle and Aunt were originally going to come. I’ve already talked them out of it, leaving the space to you two. But Brother Xiao, let me give you a heads-up first. Last night when you were in the operating room, Su Goddess was completely out of it. The way she was acting off—any idiot could see it. I figure, once you’re discharged this time, you won’t be able to hide what’s going on between you two. Make good use of the chance."

After Si Nian finished, something else occurred to him and he added, "Oh right, there’s one thing. I originally thought I shouldn’t be the one to tell you, but... I’ll say it anyway. The day you went on that business trip, right after I dropped you off at the airport and was on my way back, Su Goddess called me. Seemed like she needed you for something. She sounded pretty anxious."

Sheng Yanxiao’s eyes flickered slightly. She needed to talk to him?

Although during this time she had been sending him messages every now and then, which had given him the same feeling, she ultimately hadn’t said anything. Sheng Yanxiao nodded lightly. "Got it."
