Twenty minutes later.
The door was pushed open again.
Shu Nian is back again.
This time, I had more medicine in my hand.
She went to the kitchen to boil some water, broke off the medicine, and placed it on the coffee table next to the sofa. She glanced at Ye Yan again, but he didn't say anything. He must have noticed her coming in a long time ago. He didn't open his eyes or speak a word the whole time. Maybe it was because they parted on bad terms last time, so he didn't want to see her.
She stood up and prepared to leave.
However, after taking just one step, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a cold hand. She was startled, but Ye Yan was still lying on the sofa with a cold expression.
"What are you doing?" he asked, sitting up, his eyes looking at her even colder.
Shu Nian was a little embarrassed by being looked at, and didn't say anything. He stared at the medicine and boiled water she placed on the coffee table with a cool look in his eyes, and repeated, "I ask you, what are you doing?"
Shu Nian tried to be frank and said, "I just noticed that your stomach problem seems to be acting up again."
He snorted and laughed, "Does this have anything to do with you?"
His attitude when speaking was particularly unfriendly and his tone was very harsh.
Shu Nian frowned slightly, feeling aggrieved, and didn't know where his temper came from. "Then just treat it as nothing. Your kindness is taken for granted."
The last sentence was a mutter.
She used her free hand to pry his hand away in anger. However, Ye Yan pulled her and she sat on his lap. Shu Nian wanted to get up, but he held her hips tightly. His palms were broad, and her small hips were completely held in his palms. Shu Nian's whole body froze, and her face turned red and white.
In contrast, his eyes were cold and forcing her. Shu Nian was a little overwhelmed. This sitting posture and intimacy made her even more at a loss. She put her hands on his chest, "Ye Yan, what do you want to do?"
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Why did you go out of your way to buy medicine for me?"
"I prepared medicine for you, and I did something wrong?" Shu Nian couldn't understand his question at all.
"Shu Nian, don't forget how you rejected me a few days ago! Since you have said it so cruelly, why do you still want to tease me?" As he said this, he increased the strength in his hands and hugged her tighter.
The two people got closer and closer, and Shu Nian could clearly feel the man's strong thigh muscles and strength under his buttocks.
Her heartbeat suddenly became chaotic. She vaguely felt that something in her was gradually going off track, becoming increasingly out of control...
This situation is really too bad.
"Ye Yan, this is not teasing..." Shu Nian looked at him, trying to suppress the confusion in his heart and pretending to be calm, "You have helped me so much, it is not excessive for me to help you once. What's more... you are my employer and my creditor. If I can turn a blind eye to you in this situation, then I am not qualified to regard the profession of doctor as my dream."
"Really? So, the reason you bought medicine for me was entirely driven by your professional ethics?"
"… I guess so." Is it really just professional ethics? Shu Nian asked himself, but he had no answer.
Ye Yan stared at her solemnly, and finally, let her go.
The next moment, Ye Yan raised his hand and threw the medicine into the trash can without hesitation. Shu Nian was startled, and only heard him say coldly: "Don't do such things that will cause misunderstandings in the future. There are many people who deliver medicine, and this young master doesn't need you."
Shu Nian smiled bitterly.
Suddenly I felt a little stupid.
"I'll know next time. Well, I'll go back to work at the hospital first." He hid the loss in his heart that even he himself couldn't understand, and spoke calmly. Without looking at Ye Yan again, he opened the door and went out.
It wasn't until the door closed that Ye Yan gritted his teeth in anger.
What a hateful woman! She could be so cold and calm! The most hateful thing is that the act of buying medicine messed up his heart. But in the end, she still looked innocent and said it was just out of professional ethics!
Screw her work ethic!
He lowered his head and glanced coldly at the trash can. After a moment of stalemate, the next second, he took out the medicine he had just thrown out.

The next time Shu Nian received a call from Xiang Muyang was one evening.
She took her clothes and was about to take a shower when her cell phone rang. Looking at the flashing number on the screen, she thought of what happened that day. Although the wound on her body has healed, the wound on her heart is still there.
When it rang for the second time, she answered the phone and put it to her ear.
"Hey, Nian Nian..." Xiang Muyang called her from the other side. Shu Nian could tell immediately that he was drunk and his voice was noisy and chaotic. "Do you know... what day it is today?"
Shu Nian remembered that it was Xiang Muyang's birthday today.
But it seemed that this had nothing to do with her anymore.
In the past, when she wanted to save their marriage, she had made a cake for him herself, but in the end, the cake never arrived.
"Sorry, my memory isn't very good."
"Come over here, please? I miss you so much..."
"..." Shu Nian listened to his gentle call on the other end of the phone, feeling complicated and uncomfortable. "I'm hanging up."
"Hang up, I'll go to your house to find you now." Xiang Muyang sneered: "Aren't you thinking of divorcing me? Your father doesn't know yet, right? Then I will take the divorce agreement over today and ask your father to give us a reference. What do you think?"
"Don't go crazy." Shu Nian's tone rose slightly.
"Crazy? Am I not crazy?" Xiang Muyang's tone was a little self-pitying and a little lonely. "Shu Nian, if you don't come tonight, you will never think about divorce..."
Shu Nian hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Address."
Xiang Muyang told her the address, but Shu Nianduo hung up the phone without saying a word. She opened the drawer, pulled out a divorce agreement, and stuffed it neatly into her bag. She printed dozens of copies as backup, so there would always be one that could be used.
——
Xiang Muyang's birthday party was held in a club called '9 Nest'.
Shu Nian asked the waiter to lead him to Box 066 where Mu Yang was. However, he had only taken two steps when he heard a voice behind him: "Master Ye, please come this way! Master Tang and his group of people are already waiting for you."
"Um."
This sound...
Shu Nian subconsciously stopped and looked back instinctively.
It’s a small world.
Surprisingly, I could meet him in a place like this.
Ye Yan also noticed her at this moment, and their eyes met. Shu Nian smiled slightly and nodded as a greeting.
"Ye Yan!"
At this moment, a young girl jumped out from behind and hugged his arms vigorously.
