After finishing organizing the materials, Shi Wan finally left the school. Shen Siyan had been waiting outside for God knows how long. His long legs were casually crossed, and there was an iPad beside him. The red and green numbers on it made it obvious what it was.
Her eyebrows twitched. She grabbed the man's collar and questioned him, "Did you...?"
"Yes. I just wanted to give my little wife the best life, but I didn't expect my luck to be so bad."
Before Shi Wan could finish her sentence, the man in front of her had already started to admit his mistake.
Shi Wan felt a lump of anger stuck in her chest. Should she hit him?
No!
This man was the one she had spent so much mental energy and medicinal materials to save. If she hurt him, she would be the one to suffer.
But if she didn't hit him...
This money - guzzling beast was really running amok!
"Little wife..."
"Shut up!"
Shi Wan glared at him. She had come to the Shen family for a mission, but before she could complete it, she had already lost hundreds of millions.
Just thinking about it...
"Little wife, you have to trust me."
Seeing her covering her chest with a pained look on her face, Shen Siyan felt a twinge of heartache.
Shi Wan was on the verge of tears. "Trust you? No way. Don't do these things anymore. You don't understand them."
"Okay." The man curled his lips into a gentle smile. "Let's go home."
Only then did Shi Wan notice that in her excitement, she had been sitting on the man's lap. After scolding him, she wanted to get off.
However, the big hand around her waist tightened, restricting her movement.
She cast a cold glance at him. "Let go."
"Little wife, Grandpa is at home today."
Shi Wan immediately understood what he meant. "Can't you hug me when we're almost there?"
"We need to get more familiar so that it won't feel strange."
Mainly, he had been eager to see her after just one day apart.
He had waited for her since noon until she came out.
"Little wife, since you're so good at medicine, can you treat heart - related diseases?"
"No. I'm not good at mental illnesses."
Shen Siyan chuckled softly and didn't mind.
"Did you participate in the medical competition?"
"Yeah. What? Are you afraid I'll embarrass you?"
"No. I'm more than happy." The man stroked the top of her head. "If you don't win an award, I'll create one for you. But I believe in my little wife's strength."
Shi Wan was silent for a while. "Second Young Master Shen, do you really like me?"
"Is this a disease?"
"Yes. A mental illness."
The man laughed softly. "Then let it be a mental illness."
...
When they got home, sure enough, Old Master Shen was waiting in Shen Siyan's courtyard. When he saw the two of them enter, his eyes lit up.
He had been worried that these two kids would reject each other, but he didn't expect them to be so close so soon.
"Since everyone's back, let's have dinner."
Shi Wan: "..."
Did he come here specifically to wait for them to have dinner?
Soon, the news that Old Master Shen had gone to Shen Siyan's courtyard for dinner spread like wildfire, causing panic among the family.
Everyone knew that the old master didn't have many years to live. Now that he had gone to Shen Siyan's courtyard alone, he might be planning to hand over his shares to Shen Siyan.
But the old master didn't invite them. Many people felt uneasy during this meal.
In the courtyard, Shi Wan watched as Old Master Shen pestered her like an old child. She couldn't wait to escape.
"Wanwan, I know your relationship with the Shi family, and you know Siyan's physical condition. I think we can cooperate."
"What kind of cooperation?"
"I'll hand over my shares to you. You help me protect Siyan."
Old Master Shen suddenly became serious and said word by word.
From recent events, it could be seen that Shi Wan was not an easy person, not as simple as she seemed.
After his death, the people in the Shen family would definitely not let Shen Siyan go, even if he didn't have the shares.
Shi Wan was silent for a while and pushed the contract in front of him. "Grandpa, from the very beginning, it seems that I won't gain much."
The contract stated that if Shen Siyan died an unnatural death, all the money from the shares in his hands would be donated to charity as a donation. If the opposite happened, the profit she could get would only be a few hundred million, and she wouldn't get a single share.
Moreover, the shares would only be nominally in her hands to confuse the opponents.
If she signed this contract, she would also be targeted by some people.
"Moreover, I'm just a woman from the countryside who came as a substitute bride. What ability do I have to protect him?"
She had thought that Shen Siyan would tell the old master about his physical condition, but it turned out that the old master didn't know at all.
"I've lived for so many years. I can tell who is who." Old Master Shen smiled. "What do you want?"
"Can you really give me what I want?"
"As long as I can do it."
The smile in Shi Wan's eyes spread. "Then I'll protect him."
Even if he hadn't approached her, she would still protect Shen Siyan.
Moreover, Shen Siyan was not as simple as he seemed.
Besides, this way, she could complete her mission better, right?
...
Everyone thought that Shi Wan would give up the competition after seeing the online news, but unexpectedly, she went to the medical department's training room every day.
She was not affected by the online remarks at all.
Today, they were going to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital for an internship. Sang Lin specially brought her a white coat.
In the traditional Chinese medicine hospital.
As soon as Shi Wan arrived at the hospital, she was called away by Dean Yu.
"Wanwan, one of our doctors can't make it, and there's just an operation..."
"What kind of operation?"
"Acute foramen magnum hernia. It's very dangerous. Moreover, the patient has intracranial bleeding, and the bleeding location is also very dangerous."
"Got it."
"Great. I'll take you to the sterile room to change into sterile clothes first."
Seeing that she agreed, the stone that had been hanging in Dean Yu's heart finally fell.
It was really worth it to trade a few interns for Shi Wan.
"Dean Yu, what should we do?" Long Meng wandered around for a long time before finding them. She boasted, "Dean Yu, I also did an internship in this hospital before. I have a lot of work experience..."
"Aren't there supervisors for the interns? Go find them. Why are you coming to me?"
Dean Yu also wanted to go into the operating room to see how Shi Wan would perform this operation. He didn't have the time to deal with Long Meng at all.
Long Meng was stunned. Her intention was to show that she was more experienced and capable than Shi Wan's team, but she didn't expect the dean to ignore her.
She seemed to have seen Shi Wan here just now, right?
Why did Shi Wan, an outsider, think she could compare with them just because she was in a team?
"Long Meng, what are you doing? Hurry up and come and help!"
As soon as Long Meng went downstairs, a member of her team waved at her.
She swallowed her anger. She knew that internships were like this, but why did they have to do this while the other team didn't?
"Where are the others?"
Thinking like this, she asked.
"They're being led by the teacher. Unlike us..."
This made Long Meng even angrier. She huffed and went to help.
...
After the operation was over, Dean Yu and the others came out of the operating room. Everyone present, except Shi Wan, looked shocked.
Her hands were steadier than those of a doctor who had practiced for a lifetime, and her skills were top - notch.
Why didn't they know about such a person?
"You... You're new here?"
Shi Wan hummed in agreement. She was just here for an internship, so of course she was new.
