The sound of the door opening made both of them turn their heads.
The newcomer wore a baseball cap and a mask, a loose black jacket, a matching colored utility vest, black wide-leg pants, and white sneakers. They looked low-key, mysterious, tall, and handsome.
Xia Wei Liang's eyes widened, "Yi Shen..."
Could it be that he had also seen the news?
He knew she had fallen into a pit on her bicycle?!
Inhale~ Exhale~
Inhale again~ Exhale again~
Xiao Yi stood at the doorway, his cold gaze falling on Xi En. He raised an eyebrow slightly, as if asking, and even more like a warning.
Xi En slowly straightened up, not seeming to think anything was wrong with what he had done. He said generously, "There was a small accident."
Xiao Yi walked in. "I know."
He looked up at Xi En. "I still have to thank you."
Xi En said slowly, "You don't need to thank me. I didn't protect Wei Liang well, and I feel very guilty."
Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow. "We're just ordinary friends. You don't need to put such a heavy psychological burden on yourself."
As he approached, he cupped Xia Wei Liang's cheeks. "It's me who should be guilty. As a boyfriend, I didn't protect my girlfriend..." He checked her from left to right, then touched her head to see if she was injured.
"You're not smart to begin with. If you injured your brain, it would be even worse."
Xia Wei Liang: "..."
Phew, she was so angry!
Seeing that she only had superficial injuries, he removed his mask. The tension in his cheeks eased even as his expression softened.
Xi En chuckled softly and said, "She's already been examined. The doctor said there are no major issues."
"That's good."
He seemed to recall something and said, "Oh, right. I saw Cha Cha when I arrived. She said she was waiting for you at the back door."
"Oh, I've already spoken to her. No rush."
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, his expression slowly changing.
His subtle dismissal made Xia Wei Liang feel awkward. She looked at Xi En, smiling apologetically, "Xi En, thank you for your trouble today. You should go back and rest."
Unlike his attitude towards Xiao Yi, Xi En looked at her with a smile. "Okay."
Watching him leave, Xia Wei Liang truly felt apologetic. He had come to guide her again because he had discovered she was a raw gem!
But who would have thought the raw gem would fall into a pit?
Sigh!
Her cheek was suddenly pinched again.
Her mouth formed an 'o' shape. She turned her head and met the man's slightly cold eyes. "Can't bear to part with him?"
"What can't bear to part with!"
She slapped his hand, finally pushing him away. While rubbing her sore cheek, she said, "This misfortune today is my fault anyway. Is it a problem for me to be polite to him?"
Xiao Yi snorted. "Your eyes were almost glued to him. Is that just being polite?"
Xia Wei Liang stared at him. "That's not right, Teacher Xiao. These symptoms of yours show typical unprovoked jealousy!"
"That's right," he admitted readily. "I just don't like seeing you with him."
"..."
He answered so directly, how was she supposed to respond?
"Uh... although I am indeed beautiful and can be considered exquisite Jingdezhen porcelain among vases, I really don't know the Film Emperor's intermittent blindness and the Actor Emperor's sudden visual impairment."
As she spoke, she sat on the bed and calculated. "The probability of this is equivalent to me winning Best Actress next year!"
Xiao Yi let out a scoff, grabbed her hand, and pressed it down. He leaned closer to her. "Then explain to me, what were the two of you doing just now?"
"Just..."
As she was trying to figure out how to concoct this matter... no, how to explain it, Xiao Yi suddenly kissed her—
Xia Wei Liang froze, her eyes immediately widening. He seemed to be becoming more addicted to this kiss, slowly pressing his body against hers. Xia Wei Liang lost her balance and fell onto the bed.
"Wei Wei Jie!"
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Then Nuomi gasped and covered her mouth. Yuan Ge, beside her, acted even faster, immediately covering Xiao Jinzi's eyes.
"Excuse us!"
Nuomi quickly pulled them out and carefully closed the door.
Xia Wei Liang's face was burning red.
Her reputation of a lifetime!
She glared at the man pressing on her, her voice feigning anger, "Xiao Yi! Give me back my innocence!!"
Xiao Yi pinched her small nose. "My innocence returned to you long ago. If it's truly gone now, there's nothing to compensate."
"..."
This, this fast car, was it something she should be on?
Xia Wei Liang's face turned even redder. "Get off me, you're crushing me."
"Hmm, next time, you'll be on top."
"xx⊙⊙"
Xia Wei Liang stared at him in shock. Could this situation still be saved?
After Xiao Yi got up, he went to open the door. "Come in."
Nuomi giggled. "Sorry, Yi Shen, we came at a very bad time."
"Be more careful next time."
"You got it!"
Xia Wei Liang silently pulled the quilt higher, covering her head.
It was probably not too late to play dead now.
Yuan Ge led Xiao Jinzi in, holding her hand. As soon as she entered, she rushed to the bedside. "Does it hurt?"
Xia Wei Liang quickly touched the little girl's cheek. "It doesn't hurt."
"What a big pit... falling into it... it must hurt."
Xia Wei Liang's smile twitched twice.
Was the news of her falling into the pit spreading so quickly?
Soon, Chang Qizhi arrived at the ward with Qiao Shan.
"Ah! Wei Liang! How are you?"
"President Chang?" Su Dan Novel Network
Xia Wei Liang quickly sat up. "Why are you here?"
Qiao Shan interjected, "President Chang rushed over as soon as he saw the video after getting off the plane."
Xia Wei Liang propped up her face with a smile. "The video... uh... it's somewhat misleading. Actually, at that time..."
"Oh, Wei Liang, you don't need to say more! I know you want to take all the responsibility for falling into the pit and don't want to implicate us at Modie!"
Chang Qizhi was deeply moved and looked at her eagerly. "Don't worry, we have the complete high-definition video backstage. As long as you agree, I'll immediately take it to claim compensation from the relevant departments!"
Xia Wei Liang heard this, complete high-definition?!
Stop right there!
Before she could say "no," Qiao Shan added, "Miss Xia, you don't need to be polite. This is what you deserve."
"Hold on!"
Xia Wei Liang quickly said earnestly, "It's just a fall, there's no need for compensation. I'm fine, let's not cause trouble for the road."
Chang Qizhi exclaimed, "Oh my god, look! Look at our spokesperson's awareness! I was startled when I saw the video backstage. How much did she fall? But Wei Liang didn't say a word, and now she doesn't even want compensation! Wei Liang, it's our honor to have you as our spokesperson!"
"No, no, no, please don't praise me like that. My noble and solitary sentiments do not allow it."
Xiao Yi stood behind everyone, a faint smile appearing as he saw the girl on the sickbed performing so sincerely.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Lian Jun: [Handle those videos clean.]
Lian Jun quickly replied: [Oh my, Xiao Yi Yi, you're too nervous. It's not a video with large-scale content. It's just our Niang Niang falling into a pit. People are just having fun.]
Xiao Yi: [I just can't stand others laughing at her.]
Lian Jun: […Understood, will process immediately.]
