If you like someone, you should make all eavesdroppers shut up.
This was always Su Minghan's attitude.
Xiao Shujing was his ideal type, but for now, he could only admire her from afar and not desecrate her. It was the quality of a knight to silently stand behind her.
"Where's my daughter?" Shen Yuliang returned from the construction site and couldn't find the familiar figure in the original ward.
"The young lady has been transferred to the VIP ward. If you have any urgent matters, you can tell us and we'll convey them for you," the nurse explained with a professional smile.
"What do you mean? I can't even visit?"
"For better treatment results, visits are temporarily not allowed."
Shen Yuliang was now completely confused and extremely panicked.
He always felt that Bo Jingyu had been acting strangely yesterday. Just like a weasel paying New Year greetings to a chicken, he must have had ulterior motives!
"No, I have to see her now."
The nurse didn't expect him to act like this. She nervously exchanged glances with her colleagues, and after they understood her meaning, they all trotted over.
"Sir, please cooperate with our work."
"Visits are indeed not allowed in the special ward."
Shen Yuliang simply didn't care about any of that. All he knew was that his precious daughter was locked up in a place he couldn't see.
"Get out of my way! Where's the doctor? I want to see the attending doctor!"
"Mr. Shen, isn't it a bit too ugly for you to behave like this in public?" Bo Siming walked over with one hand in his pocket.
He was like a savior to Shen Yuliang, who grabbed his arm tightly.
"You're just in time! Yu'er, Yu'er has been locked up!"
Bo Siming feigned a surprised look on his face. "Really?"
"Really!" Shen Yuliang pointed at the nurses behind him, his veins bulging with anger. "They must be hiding something from me!"
He disdainfully glanced at the arm Shen Yuliang was holding.
Shen Yuliang's sweaty hands had seeped into the fabric, and the sudden feeling of nausea made Bo Siming unable to bear it for a moment.
"Mr. Shen, I think it's better for you to talk to the hospital's upper management about this. It's meaningless to make things difficult for these nurses."
His ferocious face suddenly turned blank, especially after hearing the address "Mr. Shen." He could feel the estrangement.
"You, you don't plan to save Yu'er?"
Bo Siming laughed out of frustration. "Save? Isn't your choice of word a bit inappropriate? This is a hospital. What could happen to Shen Shiyu?"
"Moreover, she fell into the water yesterday and is in need of good recuperation. Isn't it a bit unreasonable for you to scold without knowing the whole story?"
Shen Yuliang was so rebutted that he didn't know how to respond. It took him a long time to say something.
"Siming, your current attitude is really confusing to me. Yu'er was personally arranged by your younger brother to be in a separate ward. Does Yu'er not matter to you at all now?"
"You're really overthinking it."
Bo Siming smiled confidently, showing his row of white teeth. His eyes were full of determination. "My younger brother wants to get back together with her."
He patted Shen Yuliang's shoulder. "Cherish this opportunity."
With that, he quickly strode away.
Shen Yuliang's gaze fell on the paper bag in Bo Siming's hand.
There was a name clearly written on it in blue marker.
Shen Ximan.
"Humph, no wonder his attitude has suddenly changed today. It's that ugly girl again!"
Shen Shiyu groggily woke up from her sleep, feeling as if her whole body was being pressed down by a thousand - jin boulder.
Her throat was so dry that it was about to smoke.
"Water... I want water..."
The nurse on duty heard the noise, fetched a glass of warm water, and used a clean spoon to slowly pour it into her mouth.
Strangely enough, Shen Shiyu didn't feel quenched at all.
"What did you feed me?"
She forced her eyelids open and only then noticed that the nurse was putting white granules into the glass. She licked her dry and peeling lips and finally realized it was saltwater!
"You're trying to harm me?!" Shen Shiyu shouted hoarsely.
The nurse smiled naturally. "How could I? I'm just replenishing your electrolytes. I didn't put any poison in it. Why are you so excited?"
"Someone... Come quickly!"
She found it hard to accept, especially looking into those chilling eyes.
"This is the top floor of the hospital. No one can hear you."
Shen Shiyu propped her arms on the bed and tried to sit up, only to find that her whole body was weak, as soft as if she had no bones.
"If I recover and get out of the hospital, I'll kill you first!"
She stared at the nurse fiercely, wishing she could skin her alive.
"I'm honored to be remembered like this by you."
After the nurse finished speaking, she took out a pre - prepared syringe. The needle hissed and a few drops of liquid came out.
"This is a pain reliever. It will be injected half an hour after your lunch."
Shen Shiyu was so scared that her hair stood on end. "I don't want it! Don't touch me!"
The nurse slowly walked over. The direct gaze in her eyes was filled with chills, as if the air around them had dropped below zero.
"Didn't you think about the consequences when you pushed Miss Ximan?"
Only then did Shen Shiyu realize.
This had been pre - planned, and she had naively believed it.
Bo Jingyu had dug a pit for her and watched her jump into it.
But now, what she was really afraid of wasn't his scheming, but the next move of the woman in front of her.
The needle of the syringe reflected light under the sunlight.
"I'm sorry for my bad attitude just now. I'll do anything you ask. Don't give me the injection!"
The nurse smiled with curved eyebrows. "No."
She showed the gentlest smile while saying the most vicious words.
"Please, I'm begging you. Name your price! Anything!" Shen Shiyu panicked and tried to run, but her weak legs made her kneel on the ground. She had no choice but to plead fearfully.
This was the only means she had now.
"Then please write a clarification statement yourself and post it on the official Weibo of the Shen Group," the nurse said haughtily with her chin held high.
"Clarify what?"
"You accidentally fell into the stream yourself. It has nothing to do with Miss Ximan throughout. She's just an innocent victim."
Shen Shiyu's head buzzed. It was as if a play hadn't even started when the audience below started scolding and asking the actor to get off the stage.
"Oh, by the way, there's something else you must know."
The nurse threw a report on the hospital bed.
The black - and - white substantial report and her cold voice left Shen Shiyu speechless and on the verge of collapse.
"You had a miscarriage."
Although she had suspected this before, she never thought she would really be pregnant. Even if she was, she had planned to claim that the child was Bo Siming's.
But now, Shen Shiyu felt as if her soul had been drained. She couldn't cry, and her mouth opened several times but no words came out.
The nurse felt a bit sorry for her when she saw the expression of retribution on her face.
Pitiful people must have something hateful about them. The things that the young Master Bo had instructed her to do, she had to do them to the best of her ability.
