He was Tang Yuchen, the man she despised, the demon who caused her such pain.
How had she ever mistaken him for a prince?
An Ruo coldly stared at him. When Tang Yuchen met her eyes, he was momentarily stunned before smiling and asking, "Finally decided to wake up?"
She didn’t respond to him, but instead looked around and realized she was lying in a hospital.
Recalling the scene where An Xin had tried to harm her, her pupils shrank, and her eyes couldn’t help but reveal both pain and hate.
"I didn’t die, did I?" she asked him faintly.
Tang Yuchen tightly gripped her hand, his eyes crinkling with a smile, "That’s right, you didn’t die. I snatched you back from King Yan himself. So without my permission, you won’t be able to die."
An Ruo coldly withdrew her hand, her gaze icy, "Why is it you who saved me?"
The man’s brows knitted slightly, "What do you mean? I save you, and this is your reaction? Can’t even say thank you?"
An Ruo curled her lips into a cold smile, "Yes, I should thank you."
Thank you for always wanting me to die, thank you for always pretentiously caring in front of me, thank you for all the pain and injury you’ve inflicted on me!
Her tone was full of mockery and scorn; he would never believe she was sincerely thanking him.
The man’s eyes grew colder, staring at her faintly, "An Ruo, stop speaking in riddles in front of me! Make yourself clear, what do you mean?"
What she meant was unimportant now, just as his intentions towards her were no longer important.
An Ruowei closed her eyes slightly, speaking indifferently, "I’m tired, I want to rest."
She was indirectly giving him a dismissal, and Tang Yuchen clenched his jaw in anger, wanting to strangle this ungrateful woman.
He had saved her, had started to care for her, had decided to be good to her.
Yet she was responding with this attitude; it was infuriating!
And yet, she was so weak now that he couldn’t just leave her . The man felt powerless and was going crazy.
This woman always had a way of infuriating him to death.
Suddenly standing up, he strode out of the ward, not caring to stay any longer.
However, he still notified the doctors to check up on her.
Having just awoken, An Ruo’s consciousness only lasted a short while before she fell back into a coma.
The doctor said this was normal, that once she had enough rest, she would naturally wake up.
An Ruo slept for a whole day and when she woke up again, her attitude was much more normal compared to the cold sarcasm of her previous awakening.
Tang Yuchen stood by the bed, watching her quietly, saying nothing.
An Ruo, unconcerned with his demeanor, asked him on her own, "Was it you who saved me? How did you find me?"
He certainly wasn’t going to tell her about the tracking device he had installed in the necklace he gave her.
The man sat down in the chair by the bed, crossed one leg over the other, and said with a wicked smile, "It wasn’t me who found you. It was a villager at the foot of Jianan Mountain. An Ruo, you’re really lucky, falling from such a height, undiscovered for a day and a night, yet you didn’t die."
An Ruo was startled, finding it incredible. Was her life really that miraculous?
"Won’t you ask me who harmed me?" she asked him again.
Tang Yuchen made an attentive gesture, "Go ahead, I’m all ears."
An Ruo glanced at him, pressing her lips together before saying, "It was An Xin. She has always been plotting against me, trying to kill me so she could marry you."
