What?
In an instant, Fu Hanjiang's pupils contracted, shocked and skeptical. "How is that possible?"
With him pressing the matter, not to mention, even if there was a dispute, the fact remains that Bai Ran pushed Yao Leyi!
"The police said it was Miss Yao who withdrew the charges."
"What?"
So... it was like this?
Fu Hanjiang's thin lips pressed into a tight line, his eyes dark and deep. "To the hospital!"
"Yes, Second Master."
...
The door to the hospital room was almost kicked open.
"Hanjiang..."
Yao Leyi had just woken up, looking at the man approaching her with anger written all over his face, she felt her heart tighten.
With a wry smile, "What's going on? Who made Second Master unhappy so early in the morning?"
Hmph.
Fu Hanjiang smirked, his gaze unusually sharp and menacing as he approached her, his aura filled with suppressed rage, suffocating.
Getting straight to the point, "Why did you withdraw the charges?"
"Huh?" Yao Leyi was momentarily stunned, ruffling her hair lightly, she said with a faint smile, "You mean Bai Ran? Sheng Xiangsi came to see me yesterday, you knew..."
"Humph."
Fu Hanjiang's thin lips curved into a cold arc, full of sarcasm. "So, you're telling me, because Sheng Xiangsi pleaded with you, you softened your heart, is that it?"
His attitude made Yao Leyi very unhappy.
Her expression on her beautiful face was calm, "Sheng Xiangsi is the adopted daughter of the Fu family, she's also family. If she asks me for a favor, shouldn't I give her face?"
"Don't give me these superficial words!"
Fu Hanjiang's anger reached its peak at this moment.
His words were sharp and direct, "There are some things I don't say, but that doesn't mean I don't know! What's your relationship with Sheng Xiangsi? Would you soften because of her plea?"
"You..."
Yao Leyi's face turned pale with anger.
Staring at Fu Hanjiang, she said through gritted teeth, "You're right, I'm not that kind-hearted, but if I don't agree to her, wouldn't she come to you again?"
"!!"
Fu Hanjiang was stunned for a moment, then he smirked, "Very well! You know everything! You clearly know I'm waiting for her to come to me! You did this deliberately!"
"Yes!"
Yao Leyi raised her face, looking at his clouded and gloomy handsome face, then she spoke with bitterness.
"Hanjiang, you and Sheng Xiangsi are not suitable. Let's end this."
"What?"
Fu Hanjiang froze, as if hearing something earth-shattering, too shocking to comprehend. After a while, he chuckled.
"Ha, hahaha..." He raised the corner of his mouth mockingly. "You're saying we're not suitable?"
"Isn't it true?"
Yao Leyi was exasperated by his attitude, her expression turning embarrassed and angry. "She doesn't even like you!"
"Are you her?" Fu Hanjiang immediately retorted with a low growl, "Do you know if she likes me or not?"
"Huh?"
Yao Leyi was infuriated, biting her lip, her face flushing red and then paling again.
"Fu Hanjiang!"
At this moment, Yao Leyi felt at a loss, unable to find words to refute him.
Fu Hanjiang straightened up, his entire being exuding an intimidating aura.
"And what about you? Big brother has explained many times that he has no one else outside, yet you don't believe him either? According to your logic, you don't like big brother?"
"Huh? Fu Hanjiang!"
At this moment, Yao Leyi was on the verge of collapse, her eyes bloodshot, her voice trembling with anger. "Are you out of your mind? You're comparing me to Sheng Xiangsi?"
"Why not?"
Fu Hanjiang raised an eyebrow, looking at her suspiciously. "Isn't the logic the same?"
"You, you..."
Yao Leyi covered her chest in anger, feeling choked up! But she didn't know how to argue anymore.
"Yao Leyi."
Fu Hanjiang closed his eyes, adjusting his breath and emotions.
"I'm not here to argue with you. I want you to understand one thing... Yes, you saved me back then, without you, I would have died long ago. I owe you one! For these years, I've always kept my promise to protect you, to protect the Fu family! But that doesn't mean you can interfere in my life!"
"I interfere in your life? Ha!"
Yao Leyi laughed angrily, her eyes tinged with redness. "You used Sheng Xiangsi's good friend to threaten her to come back to you. That's coercion! Fu Hanjiang, forcibly taking something isn't sweet. Don't you understand?"
At her words, Fu Hanjiang's spine straightened, his whole being trembling with barely suppressed emotions.
Then, with a calm and composed tone, he asked her, "Who forced her is me, and who eats it is also me. Sweet or not... can you tell?"
"!"
Yao Leyi was stunned, her mouth agape.
He said it, he actually said it!
She was at a loss for words, unable to come up with any more arguments.
Fu Hanjiang gave her one last glance. "This is the last time. From now on, my affairs... don't get involved!"
"Hanjiang..."
Fu Hanjiang turned and walked out, leaving Yao Leyi unable to stop him. But luckily, she had already obtained Bai Ran's phone.
As for his inconsistency, that was Fu Hanjiang's business, not hers!
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Sheng Xiangsi came to the hospital.
"Yao Leyi!"
"I know you're anxious."
Yao Leyi hurriedly interrupted her, shrugging helplessly. "I did withdraw the charges, but Hanjiang insists on prosecuting."
"I don't understand..." Sheng Xiangsi frowned, puzzled. "You're the victim, you don't want to pursue it..."
"Yes. But causing intentional harm is a criminal offense and can be prosecuted."
What?
Sheng Xiangsi's nerves were almost frayed!
She looked at Yao Leyi and smiled bitterly—she had underestimated Fu Hanjiang's feelings for Yao Leyi...
For someone he cared so much about, how could he not go crazy after she got hurt?
So, even if Yao Leyi didn't pursue it herself, he would definitely seek justice for her!
Fu Hanjiang, the most devoted man in Jiangcheng.
Without saying anything, Sheng Xiangsi turned and left.
Watching her leave, Yao Leyi narrowed her eyes, a victorious smile curling her lips. She didn't expect that she would be the biggest beneficiary of this turmoil in the end!
Although her leg was injured, she got Bai Ran's phone.
Seeing Sheng Xiangsi's expression, she should hate Fu Hanjiang to the core by now, right? Would she go to beg Fu Hanjiang?
Don't go, please don't go!
That would ruin everything for them!
But Sheng Xiangsi had to go.
Because of her, Bai Ran was hurt, and she couldn't just leave it be.
Besides, she didn't want to kneel down.
She had her own way, although it was somewhat 'unscrupulous'...
After coming out of the hospital, Sheng Xiangsi went to the Fu residence.
When she arrived downstairs, she called Fu Hanjiang.
She thought he wouldn't pick up, but after a few rings, he answered!
"Hello..."
"Hello?"
On the other end, it wasn't Fu Hanjiang but Rong Zheng. "Xiangsi. Looking for Second Master? He's busy right now, why don't you come up and wait for him for a while?"
