  This instantly triggered the rage Ye Qianqian barely managed to suppress.

  She lifted her head and took a glance at Shen Zhilie. His face was slightly pale. There were dark circles under his eyes and a thin layer of stubble had surfaced at the corners of his lips.

  His originally bright, clean, and fair face seemed as if it had weathered many vicissitudes of life in the few days that they had spent apart.

  Ye Qianqian pursed her lips. She felt slightly uncomfortable.

  Things had changed in only a few days. Everything had changed.

  How many things could one hold in their heart?

  Ye Qianqian never knew that the man she had always trusted and relied on could have her eating out of his hand on end and seduce her bestie on the other.

  The thing Ye Qianqian least expected was how Shen Zhilie still had the cheek to follow after her when she already saw through and exposed his deeds.

  Ye Qianqian laughed coldly and waved her hands with a look of impatience. She hollered, “Are you done with your piece? I already said that we’re done!”


  “Qianqian, listen to me. Fang Tongtong and I are not in the sort of relationship you imagined. The reason she would visit me in the hospital was only because I didn’t want you to worry about me. Didn’t I tell you a few days ago? One of my female patients had been cheated on. She even aborted her child, so she developed some psychological problems.”


  Ye Qianqian listened to Shen Zhilie’s explanation with a cold expression on her face. She did not comment, neither did she show much of an expression.

  Shen Zhilie looked at Ye Qianqian. He tightened his grip around her hand as he said, “I was working overtime that night. I happened to touch an emotional raw nerve, so she wanted to mutilate herself. I managed to stop her but was injured by her.”


  As Shen Zhilie spoke, he pointed to his arm, which was firmly bandaged. “Look, this is the evidence! I received 12 stitches on my arm. My artery was injured, and I needed to be hospitalized after a blood transfusion. I did not want you to worry about me, so I could only tell you that I returned to the Capital. I never expected Fang Tongtong to give Gu Yuansheng a call out of the blue……”


  The cold sneer on Ye Qianqian’s lips widened. Just when she wanted to pull her hand away, Shen Zhilie tightened his grip around her hand. The strength of his grip did not lax up the slightest.

  “Gu Yuansheng was the colleague I wanted to introduce to Fang Tongtong. Didn’t I give her his name card? At that point in time, Gu Yuansheng told her about what had happened to me. She said that she wanted to come over to take care of me. I turned her down, but she said she would tell you about it. I was afraid you would be unhappy when you found that I had lied to you. That’s why……”


  “Are you done?” There was a complete lack of warmth in Ye Qianqian’s tone of voice. She watched Shen Zhilie with a poker face as he clutched onto her hand. “Aren’t you embarrassed?”


  When Shen Zhilie saw her expression, he knew Ye Qianqian did not believe him. His heart was torn with anxiety as he yelled out, “Qianqian, everything I’ve said is the truth!

  “OK. Can you let go of me now?” Ye Qianqian felt as if her heart was being torn about as she spoke.

  However, she was not regretful. Her eyes flashed with scorn as she watched Shen Zhilie. ” I’ve already listened to your explanation. You can leave now. I’m busy and need to head back to work.”


  “Ye Qianqian!” Shen Zhilie’s eyes were red. “What must I do to make you believe me? There’s nothing between me and Fang Tongtong. If there was something, let me be struck by lightning and die from an unnatural death!”


  “Sure, I believe you. Let go of me. I need to head to work.”


  “Ye Qianqian!”


  “What do you want?” Ye Qianqian impatiently twisted her arms. “Aren’t you done? I haven’t eaten anything yet. I don’t have all day to waste with you!”
