Chu ngyao was naturally very worried about Ye Fan’s injuries, despite Fire Phoenix saying it wasn’t a big problem and that a surgery would fix it. After all, it was a heart injury; such a serious matter couldn’t help but make one anxious.
If there’s even the slightest mishap, and it gets more severe, what a danger that would be.
Chu ngyao couldn’t bear to think deeper about it, and ca with a trembling heart.
Halfway there, she received a call from Butcher, which left her feeling even more hollow.
It wasn’t that she blad Butcher; she understood his personality since Ye Fan had ntioned it before. But hearing such words was hard to accept, not to ntion the heartache.
Following Butcher’s words opened the suppressed heaviness in her heart, and tears just flowed down.
She couldn’t imagine if Ye Fan’s injuries worsened, what that would be like, so her sadness reached the extre.
Seeing Chu ngyao cry, Qiu Wen and Butcher were at a loss.
"ngyao!" Qiu Wen’s eyes were red as she murmured softly.
"Sister-in-law, it’s just my big mouth. Don’t cry, it looks terrifying. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have joked so recklessly." Butcher hurriedly apologized, feeling utterly confused about how to handle the situation now.
He thought apologizing might leave a good impression on Chu ngyao, hoping past unpleasantness could be put behind them.
However, seeing her tears made Butcher’s heart chaotic, and he was all over the place.
He expected Chu ngyao to be angry and scold him, but he never anticipated this scene.
Chu ngyao wiped away the accumulated tears of fear and panic from her heart, adjusting her state.
"All because of your careless words, satisfied now?" Qiu Wen looked at Butcher with full dissatisfaction.
"Yes, yes, it’s all my fault." Butcher sincerely apologized.
"I don’t bla you, and I’m not mad at you. Ye Fan told about you; I know you like to joke." ngyao murmured, "I was just worried about Ye Fan and couldn’t hold back; don’t laugh at ."
She spoke honestly, not blaming Butcher but rather being pleased to see Ye Fan fighting side by side with Butcher and others.
Butcher felt ashad. Fearing that Chu ngyao would be angry only to find out she wasn’t made his worry unnecessary. He realized he underestimated this legendary sister-in-law.
Chu ngyao’s understanding made Butcher deeply ashad.
Seeing Chu ngyao’s genuine emotion because she cared for Ye Fan, Butcher’s heart felt empty and distressed.
As for laughing, how could he even think of it? In his heart, there was only self-bla for his careless words.
Chu ngyao slightly adjusted and felt much better. She was always strong; if it weren’t for such a big incident with Ye Fan, how could she have shed tears?
She would only shed tears in private; in front of Ye Fan, she couldn’t show any weakness, nor could she let him worry, right?
"I still have to thank you for staying by Ye Fan’s side. If it weren’t for you and Fire Phoenix’s words, Ye Fan might not have made it. I’m not being insincere; I just truly want to express my gratitude." ngyao said gratefully.
"Sister-in-law, you’re too kind; it’s what I should do." Butcher was overwheld by her gratitude, intending to apologize, but unexpectedly, ngyao wasn’t angry and instead thanked him, leaving him very embarrassed.
Butcher was truly impressed by ngyao’s charm, constantly thinking to himself, "The boss is really lucky to find such a soulmate; it’s like a blessing from the ancestors."
"Is everything all right now?" ngyao asked calmly.
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry; it’s nothing major. Just a surgery will fix it; nothing serious." Butcher assured her with a thump on his chest, having learned his lesson and dared not to joke again, becoming much more honest.
Initially, he ca with an intention to admit his fault, but in the end, finding he wasn’t wrong at all, instead, ngyao was grateful. He felt quite helpless.
Who could have expected that anxiousness would turn into this?
"Hearing you call sister-in-law makes happy." ngyao smiled.
"It’s what I should call you; your happiness makes happy too." Butcher finally laughed with ease.
...
Chu ngyao, Butcher, and Qiu Wen arrived at the hospital.
After eting Leng i, Hua Yue, and others, they finally headed towards Ye Fan’s ward.
"Is she Chu ngyao? The number one powerful woman in Huaxia? Also one of the top on the world billionaire list, the only female mogul at the top?"
"She’s the boss’s fiancée, isn’t she? Seeing her today, she’s indeed extraordinary, with such a strong presence."
"And very beautiful."
"A perfect match for the boss, truly a couple made in heaven."
"The boss is truly lucky, encountering such an exceptional woman; he’s blessed."
Leng i, Hua Yue, Dais, and Bell whispered among themselves. They didn’t bother Chu ngyao, this being the first official eting with the boss’s fiancée. After a brief greeting, Butcher led ngyao to see Ye Fan, and they didn’t ask indiscreet questions or lingered around.
"Who is that woman next to Chu ngyao? Do you know?" Dais asked, "Being able to stay beside the boss’s fiancée, she must be quite sothing too?"
"She’s Qiu Wen, the boss’s apprentice." Leng i, knowing so details, imdiately revealed Qiu Wen’s identity.
The boss they referred to was undoubtedly Ye Fan.
"To be the boss’s apprentice—how enviable!" Dais sincerely said, "To beco the boss’s apprentice, what a fortune it must be; why don’t I have such good luck?"
"Before, you couldn’t even see the boss; now, being able to see him closely is a huge blessing, yet you’re not satisfied?" Dais chided with amusent, "Greed knows no bounds; better to be content and happy, learn from ."
"Learn from you? Huh!" Bell scoffed, "As if you don’t envy them, pretending like you used to see the boss all the ti."
"I know my place, unlike you, dreaming wild dreams. It’s not good." Dais lectured, pretending not to envy the boss’s apprentice; she wished she could be Ye Fan’s apprentice too, but how could that be?
It was obviously impossible, so wishful thinking was useless; being pragmatic was better.
"You two, stop bickering. Mind your manners; don’t make a fool of yourselves," Leng i cautioned, "We represent the boss’s image now, and we can’t embarrass him in front of his fiancée."
Dais and Bell imdiately fell silent.
