Outside the door, An Zihao nodded and smiled at the doctors and nurses as a greeting, and walked over leisurely. He was tall, with an elegant bearing, his casual suit wrapped around his slender, lean figure, complenting his handso features, with a look of shrewdness and calculation in his eyes.
His gaze eventually fell on Yu Sangwan. Yu Sangwan kept her head down and didn’t look at him.
An Zihao didn’t say anything, and first took her hand.
Yu Sangwan suddenly looked up, gritting her teeth and glaring at him.
An Zihao forcibly held her hand, his face smiling, "Uncle, I’ve co to see you. How is your health?"
Yu Zhiyuan saw An Zihao and imdiately showed a smile, "Ah, it’s Zi Hao! You’re so busy yet you ca to see , I’m fine, you still rember despite your busy schedule. My nutritional solution..."
"Uncle, that was my oversight. I’ve been busy lately and neglected the financials, but I’ve already arranged for the funds to be transferred, you’ll have it by tonight."
"Good child, you’ve been so considerate." Yu Zhiyuan let out a big sigh of relief.
"No need to be so formal, you’re Wanwan’s father, so you’re my father too."
An Zihao responded appropriately, his words flawless.
Yu Sangwan watched him perform perfectly, recalling his affair with Xu Hui, feeling utterly mocked.
An Zihao made Yu Zhiyuan very happy, chatting for a while before standing up to take his leave, "Uncle, today is the weekend; my mom is still waiting at ho for us to go back for lunch. Wanwan has lost a lot of weight lately, my mom made a lot of her favorite dishes, you see..."
"Then you’d better go back quickly!" Yu Zhiyuan waved repeatedly, urging his daughter, "Wanwan, quickly go back with Zi Hao, don’t let your aunt’s efforts be in vain."
Looking at her father’s smiling face, Yu Sangwan found it hard to speak her bitterness.
Yu Zhiyuan’s face turned stern, "Wanwan! Why aren’t you speaking?"
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan opened her mouth.
"Enough! Look at you with that face, who are you showing that attitude to? Zi Hao works so hard, inside and outside the ho all rely on him, you’re being way too thoughtless!"
Yu Zhiyuan finished scolding his daughter, then smiled at An Zihao, "Zi Hao, please forgive her, she’s young and immature."
An Zihao lifted his arm onto Yu Sangwan’s shoulder, "Uncle, what are you saying? It’s only right that I give way to her."
With this, Yu Zhiyuan’s expression towards his daughter worsened, "With soone like Zihao, what can you possibly complain about?"
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan couldn’t bear it anymore, crying out, "Listen to , An Zihao has a woman outside!"
"Wanwan!" An Zihao urgently shouted harshly, "What nonsense are you spouting in front of Uncle?"
"Am I spouting nonsense?" Yu Sangwan’s eyes were wet, "An Zihao, if you dare to do it, you should also face up to it!"
Amidst the argunt, Yu Zhiyuan interjected loudly, "Wanwan, stop it! A man, how can he not have a few amusents outside?"
"Dad, I..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, her lips trembling slightly.
An Zihao chuckled smugly, "Uncle, fortunately, you understand. Then I’ll take Wanwan away; my mom is waiting at ho. Take care of your health."
"Alright, alright." Yu Zhiyuan nodded with a smile, but then glared at his daughter, "Wanwan, go quickly!"
Yu Sangwan was extrely frustrated, only able to swallow her tears...
After leaving the sanatorium, Yu Sangwan pushed away An Zihao and walked forward without saying a word.
"Yu Sangwan!"
An Zihao called out to her with a stern face, his lips curved into a sowhat sinister smile, "Dare to take one more step forward!"
Yu Sangwan anxiously took two deep breaths, turned back to glare at him, her eyes red, "An Zihao, we’re over. Please stop bothering , okay?"
"What?" An Zihao raised his voice in a taunting response, "Did I hear wrong? Stop bothering you? Yu Sangwan, have you forgotten what your identity is?"
His face was livid, already both angry and ashad.
Yu Sangwan felt a chill in her heart, silently clenching her palms tightly.
"Why are you not speaking?" An Zihao sneered coldly, questioning.
"Hah! Ignoring you for a few days, I thought you’d co to your senses, but no, you’re still so immature! I give way to you, and you push your luck, don’t you? Want to get rid of and break up with ? Don’t you rember who took you in when everyone called you a ’jinxed star’ and you were holess! Who’s been paying for your father’s expenses at the sanatorium for all these years!"
Yu Sangwan’s back stiffened, a feeling of humiliation rising from her heart, her fingertips deeply embedded into her palms.
"Throwing a tantrum with ? Take a look if you have that standing!" An Zihao’s tone was aggressive, but every word reflected reality.
Yu Sangwan’s feet were like nails on the floor, her face white as paper.
"Ah..." An Zihao stepped forward, holding her hand. Yu Sangwan unwillingly closed her eyes but couldn’t break free!
"It’s just a woman, rely a passing affair." An Zihao looked down at her, as if explaining, "I am serious about you."
Yu Sangwan sneered inwardly, hah... Serious? Should she be grateful?
Chapter 8: If You’re Not Sick, I’m Responsible
In the end, she returned to the An Family.
"Wanwan, you’re back?"
Mr. and Mrs. An were delighted to see Yu Sangwan.
"Just in ti, Auntie made all your favorite dishes."
Mrs. An took Yu Sangwan’s hand, whispering, "Hasn’t Zihao been neglecting you recently, you seem upset? Don’t bother with him; your uncle and I are both here for you!"
Yu Sangwan pursed her lips, only smiling without speaking.
An Daoxun busied himself serving her food, "Wanwan, eat more, you’ve lost a lot of weight recently."
Glancing at his son, he reproached, "Zihao, no matter how busy you are, you can’t neglect Wanwan!"
Yu Sangwan was dejected; the gratitude she felt towards the An couple weighed heavily on her heart... Even if she was rejected by her biological father, all these years, the An couple had treated her like their own daughter.
"I know." An Zihao held a peeled shrimp, dipped in sauce, up to Yu Sangwan’s mouth. "Co on, Wanwan... open your mouth."
Yu Sangwan glared at him angrily but, because of the An couple’s presence, she obediently opened her mouth.
The An couple, unaware of the underlying tension, saw this and laughed, "It’s all good now. Zihao, don’t make Wanwan sad again in the future!"
"Yes, I wouldn’t dare." An Zihao smiled faintly, appearing sincere.
Wouldn’t dare? Yu Sangwan smirked inwardly, who would believe that?
After spending a night at the An Family, An Zihao took Yu Sangwan to the SINO website early the next morning.
"I’m going in." Yu Sangwan said, head lowered, unwilling to spare An Zihao another glance.
"Alright." An Zihao responded, looking at Yu Sangwan, suddenly lowering his head, and took hold of her cheek with one hand.
Startled, Yu Sangwan took a step back in panic, "What are you doing?"
Her resistance was so obvious that An Zihao instantly darkened his face, "What am I doing? Am I not allowed to kiss my fiancée? Yu Sangwan, you’re getting more and more brazen!"
Yu Sangwan’s eyelashes fluttered lightly, her hands clenched tightly, humiliation growing stronger, but thinking of her father still lying in the sanatorium, she didn’t have the courage to resist fearlessly.
"I..." she struggled to hold back, stamring, "This is the company, it’d be bad if people saw us."
"Hmph!" An Zihao snorted coldly, his complexion looking better, his tone softening, "Go on inside! I’ve been busy lately, and I need to go ho over the weekend. Answer my calls and ssages... did you rember that?"
Yu Sangwan choked, nodding sullenly, "Mm, I rembered."
An Zihao seed satisfied, turned around, descended the steps, and drove away.
"Ah..." Yu Sangwan sighed, clutching her chest where it felt stuffy and pained, feeling like a person stuck in a swamp, unable to climb ashore, yet unable to sink, only to watch herself being surrounded by ’desperation’ bit by bit.
Across the way, on the boulevard, a black Rolls-Royce was quietly parked by the roadside.
Inside the car, Lu Jinxuan tilted his chin slightly, his expression indifferent and aloof, watching everything on this side as if it had nothing to do with him.
With a ’thud’, he lifted his foot and kicked the car door.
In the front seat, Tang Yueze frowned and softly inquired, "First Young Master?"
"Bring her over." Lu Jinxuan’s eyes narrowed as he tersely instructed.
"Yes."
Just as Yu Sangwan was about to step into the company entrance, two n in black suits stopped her.
"You?" Yu Sangwan stared at them, finding them sowhat familiar.
"Miss Yu, the First Young Master is waiting in the car, please!" Their icy tones were undeniable.
Since it was at the company entrance, to avoid causing a commotion, Yu Sangwan had no choice but to go with them to the other side.
In the car, Lu Jinxuan was lazily seated, propping his head with one hand, while his right hand’s palm caressed an antique lighter. His side profile made his nose appear even taller, his sharp chin particularly attractive.
Seeing Yu Sangwan sit down, he slightly tilted his head, his deep, dark eyes, like two fast arrows, unabashedly shooting over.
Clearly a man of extravagant elegance, yet his entire being exuded a wild aura. Bold and reckless, his features clear and cold, hiding a hint of sharpness, and his lips curled into a cold arc.
"Ahem." Yu Sangwan awkwardly touched her neck, coughing lightly, "You... have sothing to discuss?"
Lu Jinxuan quietly stared at her, suddenly reaching out with both hands to grab her slender waist, pulling her onto his lap.
"Ah..." Yu Sangwan was taken aback, so close to him, an unnad force ca rushing, leaving her with nowhere to hide in this confined space.
"You..." Yu Sangwan pushed against him with her hand, "Let go of !"
"Don’t move." Lu Jinxuan’s seductive voice seed to co from his nose, "Have you thought it over?"
Yu Sangwan, startled, frowned anxiously, "Thought over what? I’ve already resigned myself to that night. Lu Jinxuan, why are you so insistent on clinging to ?"
Lu Jinxuan’s face darkened, his grip turned harsh, his expression gloomy between his brows, "Where did you sleep last night?"
"Hm?" Yu Sangwan looked perplexed, baffled, "Where I sleep has nothing to do with you?"
The next second, Lu Jinxuan lifted her up, her head hitting the car roof, tears welling up from the pain, "Let go of ! You’re being so unreasonable, you know that? What relationship do we have for you to question like this?"
Lu Jinxuan’s deep eyes gazed at her, akin to a cheetah hunting prey, causing Yu Sangwan’s heart to tremble in fear.
"Slept with that man?"
"What?" Yu Sangwan, infuriated, raised her hand and slapped Lu Jinxuan, "Scram!"
Lu Jinxuan didn’t dodge, turning his face slightly, his eagle-like gaze scrutinizing Yu Sangwan. "So, you didn’t. Very good. I’ve given you ti, now take responsibility!"
Yu Sangwan was speechless; as a young woman, she was being asked to take responsibility by a playboy? Who would believe it if they heard?
"Fine!" Yu Sangwan was truly irritated, lifting her chin, "Give a report!"
"What report?" Lu Jinxuan frowned, perplexed.
"A dical report!" Yu Sangwan resolved herself, feigning seriousness.
"Didn’t you do a checkup on initially? Since you want responsibility, we should be fair, right? With your ssy private life, what if you have so disease? Go get a check-up. If you’re clean and healthy, I’ll take responsibility!"
Upon saying this, Lu Jinxuan’s face turned dark; he had never been humiliated like this.
However, this was exactly the effect that Yu Sangwan wanted, certain he wouldn’t agree.
"Hmph!" Yu Sangwan smiled triumphantly, pushed open the door, and got out, "Goodbye, Mr. Lu! No, let’s never et again!"
Through the car window, Lu Jinxuan fixed his gaze on Yu Sangwan’s retreating figure, surprisingly grinning, "Heh, interesting."
