As they were speaking, the phone rang.
Rong Beifeng took out his phone, saw it was Sun Liyan calling, frowned, and answered, "What is it?"
On the other end, Sun Liyan's voice was soft and concerned, "Brother Beifeng, where did you go? I came to your company and didn't see you."
Rong Beifeng felt a bit annoyed at the moment. "I'm at the hospital. I'll hang up if there's nothing else."
Sun Liyan immediately asked, "Brother Beifeng, what's wrong? Which hospital, I'll come find you right away."
Rong Beifeng refused, "No need to come. Bai Quan is hospitalized. Goodbye."
Wen Yan glanced at Rong Beifeng, thinking this call might be from Sun Liyan. Her impression of this man worsened to the extreme.
Rong Beifeng hung up the phone, looked at the woman lying on the hospital bed, and then thought of the person who had harmed her. His brows furrowed even tighter.
Afternoon.
The moment Rong Beifeng stepped out to take a call, Wen Yan heard Bai Quan cough lightly. Her heart filled with joy. "Bai Quan, Bai Quan."
She called out a few times, but Bai Quan didn't respond. She turned and ran out of the ward to find a doctor.
When the doctor followed her to the ward and conducted an examination, Wen Yan asked, "Is my friend going to wake up?"
The doctor smiled, "It seems the patient is recovering well and should wake up soon."
Wen Yan was in a good mood. "Thank you, Doctor."
...
Wang Family Villa.
Wang Yan, wearing a loose dress, sat on the sofa and muttered, "Why hasn't there been a reply yet? What a useless person!"
After a while, her phone rang.
Wang Yan saw the caller ID and answered. Her brows relaxed. "How is it? Did you succeed?"
A man's voice came through, "I was almost successful, but her friend took a knife for her."
Wang Yan was furious. "So, you still haven't handled this? Didn't you say you could do it quickly?"
The man said, "Miss Wang, please don't be angry. The woman is in the hospital now. I'll find another opportunity to act."
"Do it as soon as possible. If you fail again, I'll find someone else."
Wang Yan angrily hung up the phone.
Useless, can't even handle one woman. It's satisfying to hurt someone close to her.
It's all because of that woman that she's not taken seriously at the company.
Luo Mei doesn't trust her as much as before. It's all that bitch's fault.
She would never let that bitch go.
Thinking of this, she tightly gripped her phone.
...
Evening.
The sun was setting, casting a golden veil over the ward.
Wen Yan stared motionlessly at Bai Quan, feeling a bit worried.
Although the doctor had told her that Bai Quan was fine and would wake up soon, after just one afternoon, she saw Bai Quan's condition worsen.
Only after going to ask the doctor for clarification did she feel relieved.
Rong Beifeng spoke again, "I'll stay here tonight. You go back and sleep."
Wen Yan wanted to insist, but thinking they were not yet divorced, she stood up. "Okay, call me when Bai Quan wakes up."
"Mhm."
As soon as Wen Yan left the hospital, Leng Xunze sent a message: Why aren't you home?
She replied: I'm going back now. Is there something, Mr. Leng?
Leng Xunze replied: It's a bit urgent about work.
Wen Yan thought for a moment. "Okay, please wait a moment."
She put down her phone and took a taxi back.
Upon returning, Wen Yan saw Leng Xunze standing by the side in a dark suit, his stern profile bathed in warm yellow light.
She walked over. "Mr. Leng, is there anything so urgent that it can't wait until tomorrow?"
As Wen Yan spoke, she unlocked the door and entered the room, changing into slippers.
Leng Xunze looked up and saw bloodstains on her clothes. His pupils suddenly contracted. "Why is there blood on your clothes?"
Hearing this, her expression changed slightly. "I accidentally tripped. Please sit for a while, I'll go change."
Saying that, she went into the room and locked the door.
Outside the room, Leng Xunze felt that things were not that simple. He took out his phone and instructed, "Investigate Wen Yan's whereabouts for the day and report back to me as soon as possible."
"Yes."
Wen Yan changed her clothes and came out, looking at Leng Xunze. "Mr. Leng, what is it that brought you here?"
Leng Xunze explained, "Get the laptop. I have something to give you."
Wen Yan was a little confused but complied. She stood up, brought out the laptop from the room, and handed it to him. "Here."
She felt a bit tired.
She still had no clue about the person who wanted to harm her today.
However, she felt that the other party wouldn't try to harm her again in the short term. She needed to come up with a plan during this time.
Leng Xunze took the laptop and transferred all the data from the hard drive to the computer. He showed it to her. "These are several typical ancient style hairstyles and costumes. You can take a good look."
"Based on your previous experience with styling, you should be able to learn quickly."
Wen Yan saw the information on the computer, and a warmth flowed through her heart. These materials were indeed very helpful to her.
She looked up at the man and said, "Thank you, Mr. Leng."
Leng Xunze's voice was calm. "You're welcome. I'm doing this for the smooth progress of our cooperation project."
Wen Yan's expression changed slightly. The warmth faded a bit. After a few seconds, she felt that this was also good.
She had already decided to stay away from him. The incident last time must have hurt him quite a bit.
But for some reason, she still felt a little disappointed.
Wen Yan raised an eyebrow. "I know, Mr. Leng. The information you provided is very useful and will save me a lot of time."
Leng Xunze had been observing Wen Yan's expression since he finished speaking. But seeing no trace of emotion on her face, his expression instantly turned gloomy.
Thinking of Wen Yan's words that she had never loved him, he felt even more uncomfortable.
Had this woman been lying to him all along? Did she really never love him?
Thinking of this, he stood up. "Learn these styles in the shortest possible time."
Saying that, he turned to leave.
Wen Yan looked up and saw the man about to leave. Out of concern, she asked, "Mr. Leng, it's so late. Have you eaten?"
Leng Xunze stopped. "No."
Wen Yan was still a little unaccustomed to his cold demeanor. She looked towards the kitchen. "If you don't mind, Mr. Leng, have a bowl of noodles before you go."
She hadn't cooked at home for several days. She hadn't bought many vegetables, and she guessed there were only ingredients for noodles in the refrigerator.
She was just being polite. He had brought her information so late at night, she had to show some appreciation.
Leng Xunze turned around and glanced at her. "Okay."
At least she had some conscience.
Wen Yan was stunned for a moment. She hadn't expected Leng Xunze to agree to stay. "Mr. Leng, please sit for a while. It will be ready soon."
"Mhm."
Saying that, Wen Yan went into the kitchen and started busy.
When did this man start eating noodles? He usually ate Western food at high-end restaurants.
She thought as she cooked the noodles.
Soon.
Wen Yan brought two bowls of noodles to the table and looked at Leng Xunze. "Mr. Leng, it's time to eat."
Leng Xunze grunted. "Not bad."
