In the hospital, An Nuan watched Shuo Shuo's pained expression as the doctor tended to her injuries, feeling a deep sense of guilt.
If it weren't for her, if it weren't for her relationship with that scoundrel Xiao Ruoyu leading Ye Meiqi, that crazy woman, to lash out indiscriminately and direct her anger towards Shuo Shuo, then Shuo Shuo's face wouldn't have ended up like this.
"The wound is too deep; it needs to be stitched," the doctor said.
"Will there be scars?" An Nuan asked with concern.
Shuo Shuo was a pretty girl, and there were many who liked her. If she hadn't been so picky, she wouldn't still be single. If stitches left a scar on Shuo Shuo's face...
"No, we are using sutures that can integrate directly with the skin. If Miss Lan's skin doesn't heal well and does leave a scar, we can ensure that Miss Lan Shuo Shuo can return to her original appearance through cosmetic surgery," the doctor replied with a smile. Although Shuo Shuo's face looked quite gruesome to An Nuan, it seemed like a minor issue to the doctor.
Shuo Shuo noticed An Nuan's anxiousness and said, "Nuan Nuan, I'm fine. You should go wait outside for me. I'll be done soon."
"I..."
An Nuan opened her mouth to speak, but seeing Shuo Shuo still hesitating, she immediately put on a serious face and said, "Lu An Nuan, you still have things you haven't clarified with me. You'd better go outside and think about how to explain it to me later."
"Well..."
With that reminder, An Nuan suddenly recalled.
Ye Yunfeng was still outside; she should deal with his matters first.
Taking a deep breath, the doctor smiled and nodded at her. "Miss Lu, you can step outside for now. Although it’s just a minor stitching procedure, it’s best not to be disturbed."
After the doctor finished speaking, An Nuan reluctantly stepped out.
Outside, Ye Yunfeng had not left.
He leaned against the wall, and as soon as she emerged, his gaze turned towards her.
"How is it?"
"Nothing serious."
An Nuan stammered slightly, and Ye Yunfeng furrowed his brow slightly. He sensed that she had something to say but didn’t rush her, waiting for her to speak up.
"Ye Yunfeng, I think we should end this marriage. I promised to take responsibility for you during the day, but now I have to go back on my word."
"Why?" Ye Yunfeng asked calmly.
Compared to his calmness, she appeared anxious and uneasy.
They had only been married for less than a day; what feelings could they possibly have?
Perhaps asking her to take responsibility was just a whim of Ye Yunfeng's. Now that the initial excitement had faded, it was time to part ways.
"I've made up my mind. I can't keep letting things go like this. Since I've been bullied despite adhering to my principles, and even dragged my good friend into this mess, I can only find a way to rise above them."
"Isn't that going against your original intention?"
"I know I sound ridiculous. There's no difference between sinking early or sinking late; I won't have the right to mock others because I'll end up one of them. But so what? I can endure suffering and bullying myself, but I can't watch my good friend, Shuo Shuo, be bullied by them. I won't let Shuo Shuo suffer because of me."
Her own suffering was nothing.
But she couldn't let Shuo Shuo be affected.
Since Ye Meiqi could casually cause trouble in the bar and hurt Shuo Shuo, even if Shuo Shuo changed jobs, she would inevitably encounter Ye Meiqi again and face more harassment.
She was a lunatic—someone who bullied others just because of her wealthy background.
"So you're planning to infiltrate Xing Hui's major shareholder?"
