Mu Yinyin glanced at her indifferently, saying nothing.
He Xia and Nan Shiqing clearly couldn't stay any longer either, turning and walking out without hesitation. They didn't even offer any final words, primarily because no one gave them any face or any opportunity.
As they left, everyone's gaze immediately turned to Fu Siye, as if waiting for him to leave.
Fu Siye's eyes were exceptionally cold, but this time he chose not to utter a single word and walked directly outside.
Mu Yinyin's gaze shifted. She knew, Fu Siye had stayed because of Nan Shiqing.
Now that Nan Shiqing was gone, there was naturally no need for him to remain.
Mu Yinyin's lips curved slightly, her smile holding no disguise of sarcasm.
Wan Yu's eyes flickered. Fearing Mu Yinyin might be upset, she quickly said, "They're finally gone! Since that's the case, we'll be leaving too."
Mu Yinyin subtly raised her eyes, remaining silent.
Wan Yu winked at Mu Yinyin, then looked at Gu Xiaoqi and the others, "Let's go too. Let Mr. Lu accompany her for now; her assistant should be arriving soon."
Lu Sinian nodded very casually, "I can do that. You all go ahead and attend to your business."
When he left, he had indeed already handled the company matters. His absence would have no impact.
Gu Xiaoqi and Li Chuan glanced at Jiang Ling, their expressions somewhat complex.
Jiang Ling stood up, saying nothing, and walked outside.
Gu Xiaoqi subconsciously tugged at Li Chuan's sleeve, showing her concern.
Li Chuan shook his head at her, spoke no words, and also walked outside.
Wan Yu smiled with satisfaction, "You two chat slowly~"
With that, Wan Yu walked out.
In the ward, only the two of them remained this time.
Mu Yinyin leaned back against the head of the bed, not moving much. Currently, she wasn't feeling particularly comfortable.
And...
She needed to go to the restroom now.
Sister Wan was so focused on letting her and Lu Sinian get along better that she forgot how inconvenient it was to have a man around at a time like this.
Lu Sinian gazed at her, observing her delicate, pale face. He spoke softly, "I inquired about your situation with Sister Wan. I heard it wasn't an accident."
Mu Yinyin pulled at her lips, "Perhaps someone wanted me dead."
It was a casual remark, and Mu Yinyin appeared not to care.
Lu Sinian observed her, "You already know who it is?"
Mu Yinyin remained silent.
But her demeanor was an implicit confirmation.
"Is there anything you need me to do?" Lu Sinian said no more.
However, Mu Yinyin could tell that he genuinely intended to help.
Perhaps, without her saying much, Lu Sinian's intelligence was enough for him to guess.
Back at Old Madam Lu's birthday banquet, he had unconditionally stood by her and supported her. Now, he didn't mind taking action against the Mu Corporation.
Mu Yinyin smiled, "Thank you, I can handle it myself."
When it came to revenge, unless she was truly helpless, doing it herself would make the other party suffer even more.
Lu Sinian looked at her and spoke softly, "If you need me, don't hesitate to say so. You saved my grandfather, and you deserve my lifelong service."
Mu Yinyin chuckled, "I don't do things for free, so you don't need to keep remembering this."
Back then, when they didn't know each other, she naturally charged a fee.
Mu Yinyin had received a substantial sum for saving Lu Sinian's grandfather.
Lu Sinian chuckled lightly. He looked at the person before him with amusement, saying somewhat teasingly, "If you want it, everything I have can be yours."
Mu Yinyin: "..."
Here it comes again.
This man was never serious.
She didn't speak, nor did she engage him directly. After all, they had discussed everything during their last meal together. If he was just joking, then so be it.
Lu Sinian was also a man of discretion and wouldn't persistently dwell on such matters. Since she didn't respond, he naturally, and wisely, shifted the topic.
The two of them chatted with ease, without causing any discomfort to either side.
A hint of surprise flashed in Mu Yinyin's eyes.
Every time she interacted with Lu Sinian, it was indeed like this. He was very good at adjusting the atmosphere. If she disliked something, he would seamlessly transition to another topic, without any awkward or forced attempts.
As they were talking, a knock on the door suddenly reached their ears.
"Come in," Mu Yinyin said, then looked at Lu Sinian, "It's probably my assistant."
Lu Sinian raised an eyebrow, "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you further. If there's anything you need me for, please tell me immediately and don't bear it alone."
Mu Yinyin smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Thank you. Saying "thank you" too many times was pointless. Moreover, she didn't intend to actually ask Lu Sinian to do anything for her. He owed her nothing, so she disliked owing others.
Meng Tao respectfully addressed Lu Sinian, "Mr. Lu."
Lu Sinian nodded faintly and said nothing to her. He turned back to Mu Yinyin, again instructing, "Rest well. Don't overexert yourself these past few days."
"Okay."
With that, Lu Sinian said no more and left directly.
In the ward, only Mu Yinyin and Meng Tao remained.
Meng Tao turned and glanced at the closed door before looking at Mu Yinyin, "General Manager Mu, what happened to you? Why was there a car accident last night?"
Mu Yinyin pulled at her lips, "Someone didn't want me to live."
Meng Tao was Mu Yinyin's confidante and extremely loyal to her. Although Mu Yinyin hadn't been to the company in recent years, Meng Tao had always been devoted to Mu Yinyin and had never been poached by anyone else.
Despite Meng Tao's young age, she was very capable in handling matters. This was the reason Mu Yinyin had kept her by her side.
Meng Tao's expression turned a little grim, and she spoke sternly, "What about that mother and daughter duo?"
"Focus your investigation on this matter," Mu Yinyin replied without confirming, issuing a direct command.
Meng Tao naturally understood that her guess was correct and immediately acknowledged.
"And how are you now, General Manager Mu?"
"I'm fine. I can be discharged tomorrow. I was forced to stay in the hospital today, so please help me to the restroom first."
"Oh, okay..." Meng Tao immediately stepped forward to help Mu Yinyin, her eyes filled with increasing suspicion, "You need me to support you to walk, are you sure you can be discharged tomorrow?"
"It's just temporary weakness and some soreness. I'll be fine tomorrow."
Meng Tao pursed her lips, saying nothing. After helping Mu Yinyin to the restroom, she waited for her at the door.
When she came out, Meng Tao carefully helped Mu Yinyin back to the hospital bed. In reality, she was fine, not as serious as imagined. After walking a few steps to adapt, she was perfectly alright on her own.
It was Meng Tao, however, who suddenly became inquisitive.
