“I know.”

“Who is she to you?”

“Wife.”

“Huh?” Wen Zhiyuan, who had been expressionless all this while, finally raised his eyes.

Wife? Clearly, this girl was not Bai Man.

“You’ll all find out eventually, but for now, Wen Zhiyuan, you must ensure she comes to no harm!”

“What’s her name?”

“Xu Chaomu.”

“Xu Chaomu?” Wen Zhiyuan’s memory was a bit hazy, but if he remembered correctly, Xu Chaomu was a little girl adopted by the Shen Family.

“Yeah.”

Wen Zhiyuan did not ask any further. Since he had left Shen Di, he hadn’t been that concerned about the Shen Family’s affairs.

Soon, Wen Zhiyuan cleaned Xu Chaomu’s wounds and hung up a drip.

Xu Chaomu was still under anesthesia and was groggy. Aside from frowning, she showed no other expression.

Her little hand was clutching the bedsheet as if she was in pain.

After everything was taken care of, Wen Zhiyuan removed his mask: “Just take good care of her, and check if her fever has subsided after an hour. Also, change her into a clean set of clothes to prevent infection of the wound.”

“Yeah. What about you?”

“I’m going to help the other injured.”

Wen Zhiyuan was never one for many words, and soon he was out of the suite with his medical kit in hand.

Shen Chi shook his head; it had been a while, and Wen Zhiyuan’s temperament had certainly grown stronger.

As soon as he left, Shen Chi had someone send a set of clothes over.

He changed Xu Chaomu into clean clothes and placed the doll by her pillow.

Bending over, he brushed away the stray hair from her forehead with his fingers.

He had finally saved her life. Thankfully, she was brought back to safety.

As the medicine flowed down from the IV bottle, it was only when he saw Xu Chaomu sleeping quietly that he felt at ease.

After leaving a kiss on her forehead and covering her properly with a blanket, he went to another room to change and find Xiaopu.

As soon as Shen Chi left, Bai Man, who had been hiding in the shadows, quietly entered Xu Chaomu’s room.

She sneered and glanced at Xu Chaomu lying on the bed, slowly walking towards the bedside.

“Xu Chaomu, how come you’re so lucky? How come you didn’t die? Why is life so unfair? A homewrecker like you who steals someone else’s husband is still living freely.”

Her tone dripped with mockery; in her eyes, Xu Chaomu was the home-wrecker who destroyed her relationship with Shen Chi.

If it hadn’t been for Xu Chaomu, Shen Chi wouldn’t have been so cold towards her, he wouldn’t have mentioned breaking off the engagement.

Therefore, Xu Chaomu was the root cause of all troubles!

She approached the bed, staring at Xu Chaomu, a thought rising in her mind.

Her hand covered Xu Chaomu’s hand, gently stroking the needle.

She was still wearing the engagement ring from Shen Chi, but now it appeared particularly ironic.

“Shen Chi won’t be back for a while; what if I pulled out your IV? Do you think you would die?”

She touched Xu Chaomu’s arm; indeed, it was burning up.

Of course, Xu Chaomu showed no reaction; her eyes were closed, quietly asleep.

“Xu Chaomu, you’re quite something, blocking a bullet for Shen Chi. Do you think you can secure his heart forever that way? Why didn’t I think of such a tactic? You’ve hidden your schemes so deeply. This risky move, very impressive.”

“But let me tell you, it’s impossible!”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Bai Man pursed her lips and forcefully pulled out the IV from Xu Chaomu’s hand!

Blood and medicine mingled as they flowed out— a ghastly sight!

Bai Man sneered triumphantly as she stood up.

“You just wait to die. Once you’re dead, I’ll be at peace.”

Bai Man walked towards the door, intending to leave the scene before anyone noticed.

The cruise ship was already in chaos, and no one was paying attention to her, not even Shen Chi.

She tiptoed forward but just as she was about to leave the suite, suddenly, with a “bang,” the door opened!

“Ah.” Bai Man turned pale with fright, “You, why are you back?”

It was Shen Chi.

He had returned to retrieve something and had not expected Bai Man to be there!

His gaze shifted to Xu Chaomu, and he saw the IV had been thrown to the ground!

“Bai Man, did you do this?” Shen Chi grabbed her wrist with one hand!

“No, it wasn’t me… It was like this when I came… really, it wasn’t me…”

“I only left for a moment, Bai Man, do you really think I would indulge you?”

Shen Chi’s eyes were fierce, filled with red blood vessels that alarmed Bai Man!

Bai Man struggled to break free from his hold: “It’s not my fault, it was already like this when I came in! Let me go… Shen Chi!”

Shen Chi didn’t loosen his grip on her wrist and made a call to Wen Zhiyuan.

Soon, Wen Zhiyuan came running over.

“Help Chaomu get the IV reconnected.”

After dropping that line, Shen Chi dragged Bai Man out of the suite!

Bai Man’s wrist hurt terribly from his grasp, but she couldn’t overpower Shen Chi!

“Shen Chi, where are you taking me? Let me go, what just happened has nothing to do with me! Calm down, will you!” Bai Man said in a rush.

She continued to argue her innocence.

Shen Chi gritted his teeth, his face growing colder.

He strode forward, dragging Bai Man into an empty warehouse!

With a “clang,” he locked the door, throwing Bai Man to the ground without mercy!

“Ah! It hurts! Shen Chi, have you gone mad!”

Bai Man was thrown to the floor, her back hitting a plank in the warehouse, causing her to scream in pain.

“What madness? Bai Man, isn’t it time we settled our score?” Shen Chi advanced towards her, step by step.

“Don’t come any closer, let’s talk this over. What just happened, really, has nothing to do with me.”

Bai Man was scared; she had never seen Shen Chi like this before. At this very moment, Shen Chi was terrifying.

He was like the King of Asura in the dark of night, radiating a chilling aura.

The Shen Chi who used to care for and indulge her was gone. This Shen Chi frightened her…

“You won’t admit it? Bai Man, you really think I, Shen Chi, have to pamper you forever, don’t you?”

“No, that’s not what I think. Shen Chi, don’t treat me like this, you’re so strange to me now. We’ve known each other since we were kids, we were once such an enviable couple, childhood sweethearts.”

“You really have the nerve to say that.” Shen Chi sneered, “We’ve known each other since we were kids, and had it not been for tonight, I would never have realized just how venomous you can be.”

“I didn’t do anything wrong, Shen Chi, don’t slander me! In your eyes, is it that besides Xu Chaomu, everyone else is in the wrong?!”

“Yes, at least between you and Mumu, what she does is right.”

“Hah, you pamper her so much, does she appreciate it? I’m telling you, she not only doesn’t appreciate it, but she also hates you. Hate, do you understand the meaning of hate?”

“Bai Man, to save your own skin, you really can say whatever comes to your mind.”
