Ye Ning began to doubt her own ears.
Was he... trying to send her away?
In an instant, the fingers holding the menu paled slightly, and at the same time, in her heart, she felt as though she had been abandoned, that sense of loss made her particularly uncomfortable.
"You don’t need to worry about me, I can take care of myself." The tall man, dressed in light blue plaid hospital clothes, stood in the room, his figure set against the stark white walls looking somewhat cold, and the emotionless expression in his eyes appeared exceptionally distant.
Ye Ning’s face turned pale instantly, and she slowly put the menu back.
Why had he suddenly become so indifferent to her? Just moments ago in the clinic, he wasn’t ; he had even lost his temper with the doctor because she was hurt, scaring the latter quite a bit.
But why had he changed so suddenly?
Could it be... because of something Ying Hao had said?
She recalled the person who had been waiting outside the clinic when she had come out, and finally, with little confidence already in this relationship, she lowered her head, "Okay..."
That was her answer, just that single word, and then she turned and left the place.
The man standing in the sickroom, upon seeing her leave without even uttering a single word to fight for herself, or a question, felt the frustration welling up in his chest, and his features immediately contorted with brooding anger!
"Starting tomorrow, I forbid this damned woman from coming to see me!!"
Third Master, she didn’t even say she would come to see you; it’s you who always has me tempt and threaten her to come.
Ying Hao didn’t know what had set off the Third Master’s temper again...
Ye Ning’s eyes were red as she made her way back to her place.
Upon her return, since Xiaobao wasn’t there yet, she rushed to the bathroom, didn’t even close the door, turned on the shower, and just let her tears flow amidst the deluge...
She was absolutely certain that he must have found out about her plan. He was so clever; back in Japan, he had even guessed that Lin Yebai was the real culprit behind everything, so how could he not know about the tricks she had been playing at Longfeng recently.
Therefore, his coldness and distance just now, she was certain, it was because he knew about her plan to drag his entire company down with her, that’s why he acted this way towards her.
At this thought, she suddenly remembered what Lin Yebai had said to her that day, and suddenly, it felt as though something was piercing her heart, making it difficult for her to even breathe.
She really had overestimated herself, naively believing that if he liked her, he would do anything for her.
That’s hundreds of billions we’re talking about. As a proud son of heaven, what kind of woman didn’t he have? Whether it was status, appearance, or wealth, truly, if he just gave the word, countless women would willingly throw themselves into his bed.
But he didn’t want them, he didn’t fancy anyone else, he fancied her; in this vast world, such an outstanding man set his eyes on her!
A woman who had given birth out of wedlock and was still a fugitive, unable to see the light of day to this very moment.
She cried bitterly, beginning to stare blankly at the woman in the mirror...
There was a very disheveled woman, eyes red, her face wet, her hair a mess, completely lacking her usual spirit, looking almost no different from when she was in prison.
