“Miss Xia, I just came to see you and thought you weren't in the ward.” Shinohara Ryo sat elegantly on the sofa, crossing her legs. Upon seeing Young Master Si carrying Xinran out of the bathroom, her eyebrows raised slightly, and a playful glint sparkled in her eyes. 0
 
As Xinran was being carried out of the bathroom by Mu Shaosi, she spotted Shinohara Ryo. This was her first time seeing Shinohara Ryo since her surgery. During her hospitalization, apart from seeing doctors and nurses, she had only seen Mu Shaosi. She was genuinely happy to see someone else, but as Mu Shaosi placed her on the bed and helped her sit up against the pillow, she noticed the glimmer of silver at the chest of Shinohara Ryo's outfit... 0
 
She might have been better off forgetting, but she clearly remembered what Shinohara Ryo had said to her: that the Young Master of Cherry Blossom Hall and the Four Gatekeepers each had an Eagle Beak Badge, with the Young Master's being diamond and the gatekeepers' being silver... 0
 
When Shinohara Ryo explained it to her in such detail back then, she never imagined that the alluring woman standing before her was one of the gatekeepers. However, it was normal for her not to notice; perhaps everyone around her since arriving in Japan had been Mu Shaosi's people. This meticulous arrangement seemed designed to keep her close to him, and how could she resist? 0
 
She didn't know what Mu Shaosi was plotting this time or how sincere his feelings were. She felt exhausted and didn't want to think about it anymore or get caught up again. She had already experienced pain once and was now afraid. She came to Japan solely for work; she never expected to encounter Mu Shaosi again or to shield him from bullets. Everything seemed fated; she couldn't escape it. During the gunfight, amidst all the chaos, her heart was just as tumultuous. She didn't even know what she was thinking—only that subconsciously, she didn't want to see Mu Shaosi fall, so she stood in front of him... 0
 
But now, there was no gunfight or chaos; everything was quiet and calm. She needed to consider how to move forward! 0
 
Just moments ago in the bathroom, the atmosphere had been so ambiguous and charged with desire that she believed Mu Shaosi could feel it too because she certainly did. She wasn't sure if it was because she was naked or something else; regardless, a moment of recklessness could happen in an instant. Although she had safely left the bathroom in the end, if she continued to stay by his side, her wounds would heal, and she'd have no excuses left to deceive herself—she would inevitably sink under Mu Shaosi's influence, complicating everything even further than it already was! 0
 
Therefore, before anything began to change, she needed to leave—quickly. 0
 
“Miss Shinohara, I'm glad you came to see me. I wanted to ask if my assistant Wujie knows about my injury?” 0
 
Shinohara Ryo stood up and walked toward Xinran, her badge gleaming brightly on her chest. She knew Xinran could see it because she read the information reflected in Xinran's eyes. “I didn't tell her; I only mentioned that my brother would take you on a tour of Japan for a few days and arranged for a guide for your assistant so they could also enjoy some sightseeing!” 0
 
“Thank you, Miss Shinohara, for being so considerate. However, I still have work to discuss with her. Could you please help me call her back?” 0
 
 
"Your injury hasn't healed yet, I won't allow you to work." Mu Shaosi suddenly spoke up from the side. 0
 
"I don't want to work, I just want Wujie to keep me company, is that okay?" Xinran turned her head and glared at Mu Shaosi. He was getting more and more involved, and things would only get worse if this continued. 0
 
"I'm just worried about you." 0
 
"Worried? Hmph, I'm truly honored. May I ask Young Master Si, what would make you feel at ease? Is it that having your people surrounding me inside and out makes you feel secure? Miss Shinohara, I'm curious, did Young Master Si send you to pick me up just to arrange a place for me to stay? Or is it so you can take me to meet Ires?" 0
