Chapter 678: 0668 is not any friend Chapter 678: 0668 is not any friend Hearing Yin Xiner’s voice, Xiao Yan shuddered.
He secretly glanced up at Wen Jichen.
But what flashed through his mind was–
The boat is going to sink!
Director Wen’s secret affair is about to be discovered by Miss Yin!
Wen Jichen’s eyes were dark and cold as he swept Xiao Yan with a chilling look, then turned around, abruptly.
Yin Xiner, leaning on a cane, with her right leg in a plaster cast, was being supported by a nurse, her forehead damp with a layer of sweat as she appeared before him.
The moment she saw Wen Jichen, there was joy on Yin Xiner’s face.
“Jichen, are you really here?”
Wen Jichen stood in place, his handsome face showing little expression. His deep eyes surveyed her from head to toe before he said calmly,
“You’ve injured your leg, yet you’re running around!”
The low tone carried a reprimanding note, but Yin Xiner didn’t get angry; instead, she smiled happily and sweetly.
“It’s okay, moving around a bit is good.”
Wen Jichen’s figure was tall and straight, emanating a dignified and profound aura.
“What are you doing here?”
Yin Xiner was in a good mood, smiling sweetly once more.
“I just heard someone say you were here, so I came to check. I didn’t expect you to actually be here. Jichen, what are you doing here?”
Yin Xiner looked up at him, her originally joyful expression now tinged with inquiry, her tone filled with confusion.
Wen Jichen just glanced at her faintly, his gaze finally resting on her tightly wrapped leg.
“You’ve injured your leg, let’s get you back to the ward first!”
Yin Xiner cast a sidelong glance down the long corridor, which was deserted except for a few private hospital rooms.
“Jichen, is someone you know staying here?”
Compared to her earlier probing tone, there was now an added note of accusation in Yin Xiner’s voice.
Wen Jichen didn’t respond to her question, but his gaze at her eyes and brows gradually darkened.
His deep-set eyes grew more forbidding.
Yin Xiner bit her lip, her soft and warm eyes stubbornly looking at him, her facial expression appearing aggrieved yet enduring.
“I just thought I should greet your friend!”
Feeling perhaps that his tone was too harsh, he added another statement.
“It’s not just any friend!”
Yin Xiner’s hands, which had been tightly clasped together, slowly unclenched, yet she still remained standing in place without moving.
Wen Jichen turned his head to glance at her, saw her pale and aggrieved face, and softened his voice slightly.
“Aren’t you leaving?”
Yin Xiner bit her lip hard as she looked up at the tall and imposing man beside her.
“Jichen, I’ve injured my leg and it’s inconvenient for me to go downstairs. Could you carry me down?”
In Wen Jichen’s pitch-black pupils, there was a calm stillness as his gaze landed on the cane in her hand, and then he spoke faintly:
“Didn’t you say that moving around was good for the injury?”
At those words, Yin Xiner’s expression stiffened slightly.
In the end, she compromised, and with the support of Xiao Yan and the nurse, she followed Wen Jichen downstairs.
Wen Jichen stood by the bed, watching the nurse hang a new IV drip for Yin Xiner.
After everything was set up, the nurse and Xiao Yan tactfully left the ward without lingering.
Wen Jichen watched the liquid slowly drip inside the tube and spoke indifferently,
“Does it still hurt?”
Hearing Wen Jichen’s tone of concern, the smile on Yin Xiner’s face brightened slightly.
Her sweet tone was tinged with a hint of coquettishness.
“It hurts, but luckily the male actor I was filming with caught me; otherwise, my leg would have been worse than just a fracture!”
“Yes, you should really thank him!”
Wen Jichen’s words made Yin Xiner’s smile even more radiant.
“And the director too, he gave me quite a lot of time off, letting me heal my injuries before returning to the set. Jichen, I can finally spend some quality time with you!”
Wen Jichen’s eyes deepened as he glanced at the time.
“Then take the time to heal properly.”
Seeing this, Yin Xiner’s smile faded slightly.
Wen Jichen told her to heal properly but didn’t say he would stay to keep her company.
“Jichen, are you leaving?”
Wen Jichen’s face was cold as he gave her a brief look.
“Yes, I still have some matters to attend to.”
A chill ran through Yin Xiner’s heart, and a touch of grievance appeared on her beautiful and elegant face.
“Can’t you stay with me a little longer? It’s been so long since we last saw each other.”
Wen Jichen looked at her with a deep and solemn gaze.
“You’ve always been sensible!”
Yin Xiner bit her lip tightly, her face a mixture of endurance and resignation that fully embodied the “sensible” Wen Jichen had spoken of.
Compared to the sensible Yin Xiner, Ling Qingan was the troublesome one who constantly caused aggravation.
Wen Jichen glanced at the time again and gave her a brief look.
With that, he turned around, opened the door of the hospital room, and walked out.
Outside the room, Xiao Yan was already waiting there.
Seeing Wen Jichen emerge, he hurriedly followed him.
Only when they were far away from Yin Xiner’s hospital room did he speak respectfully.
“Director Wen, the attending physician is already waiting in Miss Ling’s room!”
Wen Jichen’s body paused for a moment before he quickened his pace.
In Ling Qingan’s hospital room, the attending physician indeed had been waiting for some time.
However, upon seeing Wen Jichen, a layer of sweat formed on his forehead.
Wen Jichen first looked at the woman lying silently asleep on the bed, then his sharp eyes lightly landed on the doctor’s face.
“You are her attending physician?”
The doctor, filled with dread at the gloomy voice, replied, “Yes… yes, Director Wen.”
“It was also you who made the diagnosis, saying her condition had been cured?”
The doctor wiped the sweat from his face and said with trepidation:
“Director Wen, Miss Ling’s condition has indeed been cured…”
A sudden outburst caught the doctor off guard, leaving him shaking.
Looking at the woman whose pale face showed no sign of waking, Wen Jichen’s hostility intensified, and his cold voice suddenly became severe.
“Does she look cured to you, being unconscious ?!”
The doctor, too frightened to move, quickly explained once he regained his composure.
“Director Wen, I made the diagnosis based on Miss Ling’s usual behavior and emotional state. If Miss Ling did not intentionally conceal her true condition from us doctors, then her condition has truly been cured, and she has regained social functionality… However, there is no such thing as a one hundred percent cure for mental illness, even ordinary people can have latent mental problems. It’s just that some people have stronger resilience and timely relief, preventing the outbreak of mental illness. Miss Ling’s sudden fainting could also be due to other factors…”
The chilly aura he exuded was becoming heavier, inching closer with the flow of air.
The doctor took a deep breath and continued:
“Miss Ling’s condition is in a just recently cured stage, and her emotions and other aspects are not very stable. If someone deliberately says something provocative in front of her, or if certain events or people affect her emotionally, it could lead to her reacting excessively…”
