An Nuan did not want to stay any longer in such a depressing and gloomy place. She was more concerned about Li Tian's injuries. She walked directly to Li Tian's side and bent down to help her up. However, Yan Bai was a step ahead of her, scooping Li Tian up in a bridal carry.
Li Tian instinctively struggled, not wanting to have too much contact with Yan Bai.
An Nuan: "..."
Suddenly, she felt that she really didn't belong here. Perhaps, leaving was the most sensible choice.
The scene before her was indeed hard to bear.
"Nuannuan, let's go." Shen Xizhou, seeing An Nuan leave, didn't want to waste any more time on unnecessary people. He quickly walked to An Nuan's side and reached out to hold her hand, only to be dodged by An Nuan.
Shen Xizhou was not angry. He still wore a smile, looking at An Nuan. It seemed as if just looking at An Nuan made him very happy.
An Nuan said nothing.
Xu Ruowei watched this scene, consumed by jealousy.
Why, why could An Nuan leave whenever she wanted, and he would follow? Leaving her alone behind?
She was unwilling. If she couldn't have a good time, then no one else needed to.
"Shen Xizhou, are you afraid I'll say something I shouldn't, something that will make An Nuan hate you again? Disdain you again, and leave you again?"
"Shen Xizhou, my current miserable state is all your fault. And now you're just walking away, do you think that's possible?"
Shen Xizhou, who was about to leave, turned around at Xu Ruowei's words, looking down at the woman behind him, his eyes filled with anger and killing intent.
Now, even seeing Xu Ruowei disgusted him. It reminded him of the foolish things he had done in the past. It made him feel that he had wronged An Nuan.
He had already hurt An Nuan, hurt her heart. Now, he didn't want An Nuan to suffer any more harm.
Recalling now, what had possessed him back then? Why had he believed Xu Ruowei's words? Why did whatever Xu Ruowei said, become the truth?
Shen Xizhou, thinking back, felt that he had been truly foolish then.
Xu Ruowei was stunned by Shen Xizhou's gaze. She didn't know what to say or do.
At this moment, she burst into tears, tears streaming down her face. She thought that this might make Shen Xizhou pity her. Perhaps, Shen Xizhou would remember some good things about her.
But Shen Xizhou remained unmoved.
Xu Ruowei's tears wouldn't stop. She glanced at An Nuan, then at Shen Xizhou.
Then she smiled, a chilling smile.
Afterward, she seemed to mutter to herself, "Shen Xizhou, you once said you would protect me for a lifetime, that you would cherish and dote on me. You said I was the treasure in your heart. You whispered these words tenderly in my ear as you held me close."
As Xu Ruowei spoke, she looked at An Nuan and burst into laughter again. "Oh, right, I bet Shen Xizhou must have said these things to you too. You should be very familiar with them."
"Thinking about it, it's really ridiculous."
"Mr. Shen, young master Shen, saying the same words to two different women."
"Actually, in terms of cleverness and scheming, Shen Xizhou is the one."
She looked at An Nuan, her voice softening slightly. "In fact, we were both manipulated."
"Get lost." Shen Xizhou roared coldly.
When An Nuan heard these words, she showed no concern or anger. She stood calmly in her place.
Li Tian worried that An Nuan would not be able to accept it, would not be able to bear it.
She wanted to go over, but was delayed by Yan Bai's bridal carry.
She glanced at Yan Bai, but Yan Bai seemed oblivious to her meaning, making no move.
Li Tian had no choice but to say helplessly, "Yan Bai, can you put me down? I'm fine."
"No." Yan Bai thought seriously, then shook his head. But seeing Li Tian's pale face, his voice held a hint of helplessness as he said, "Tell me what you want to do, and I'll take you there. You're injured, you really can't move on your own."
"What if you get hurt again?" Yan Bai said earnestly, his brows furrowed visibly.
Li Tian: "..."
Actually, whether I get hurt or not, it doesn't seem to have much to do with you. Looking at his anxious demeanor, she thought he did care about her. She decided not to trouble him further.
"An Nuan."
Yan Bai immediately understood and walked to An Nuan's side.
Li Tian held An Nuan's hand and said firmly, "Nuannuan, don't be sad. I..."
Li Tian had many comforting words prepared, but she couldn't utter them in front of An Nuan.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. At this moment, she felt a sense of urgency.
Seeing this, An Nuan immediately held Li Tian's hand back and gently comforted her, "Don't blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. It's my own business."
"But if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have..."
"Li Tian, you have to understand, if it weren't for me, Xu Ruowei wouldn't have targeted you. So, from beginning to end, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this."
An Nuan's words made the two of them look at each other and smile.
Shen Xizhou held An Nuan's hand and left directly.
Li Tian was carried by Yan Bai in a bridal carry to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Xu Ruowei was shouting hysterically behind them, but no one paid her any mind.
Finally, she cast her gaze on Wang Liang. It was all his fault. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be in this situation.
This Wang Liang was the instigator.
Xu Ruowei began to beat and kick Wang Liang, blaming him for everything. She never considered that the entire situation was her own fault from start to finish.
Wang Liang, having just been disciplined by Yan Bai, was unable to fight back. He couldn't even defend himself. In the end, he passed out.
Xu Ruowei was terrified. She hadn't expected Wang Liang to be so fragile. He had fainted after only a few blows.
She was extremely frightened. In the past, when something happened, the first person she thought of was Shen Xizhou, and it was Shen Xizhou or someone close to him who would step forward to resolve things for her.
But now, Shen Xizhou was out of the question.
Just then, her phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, it was Huo Yunshen. Her brow furrowed, and she instinctively wanted to hang up. However, with the current predicament so thorny, she finally answered.
Huo Yunshen arrived very quickly.
Of course, what Xu Ruowei said to Huo Yunshen is unknown, but it managed to make him smooth over the situation for her. And Wang Liang was even imprisoned because of this incident.
Yet, Xu Ruowei emerged from this incident completely unscathed.
