She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 435 Displeased Parting

Grandpa Chen was especially skilled at finding loopholes in others’ statements.

He smiled shrewdly, "This just means that President Pei is not ready yet, and he does not have solid evidence to prove that the car accident was related to our Chen Wenzhou."

"Since that is the case, I hope President Pei will be careful with his words. Without evidence, all such statements are considered slanderous defamation, for which legal responsibility can be pursued."

Grandpa Chen walked over to Chen Wenzhou, who realized he had just displayed a semblance of guilt, and slowly unclenched his fists.

Chen Wenzhou watched Pei Yansi with a tense expression.

"Now that President Pei says all the evidence still needs to be properly organized, why not wait until President Pei has recovered and been discharged from the hospital before we resolve this matter? Until then, I hope President Pei does not speak out of turn."

"Yes, before President Pei presents concrete evidence, if we hear anything inappropriate, we will treat it as if the information has been leaked from your side and will definitely pursue responsibility thoroughly."

"Alright, our visit to the hospital today was just to see how President Pei’s injuries were. Since President Pei still has the energy to protect his ex-wife, it means his condition isn’t too serious, so we can leave."

Grandpa Chen’s voice was stern as he walked towards the door.

Chen Lingmeng stared unwillingly at Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu, "Grandpa, I’m not leaving!"

"Mengmeng, now is not the time for you to throw a spoiled rich girl’s tantrum!" Grandpa Chen turned back seriously to remind Chen Lingmeng.

He had always indulged Chen Lingmeng, which was well known throughout the circle.

However, Grandpa Chen was now exceptionally stern and unyielding, making Chen Wenzhou realize the gravity of the situation and immediately moved behind the wheelchair to push him out.

"Brother, what are you doing? Shen Heyu hasn’t left, so why should I go? After I leave, who knows how this slut Shen Heyu will seduce my Brother Yansi!"

"Mengmeng, say less!" This time, Chen Wenzhou did not indulge her.

The severity of the situation had exceeded his expectations. Grandpa Chen was eager to leave, clearly to discuss the matter seriously.

"Brother!" Chen Lingmeng called out to Chen Wenzhou coquettishly.

Grandpa Chen, with a darkened face, scolded her, "Mengmeng, stop messing around, we’re going home tonight!"

Being so seriously reprimanded by Grandpa Chen in front of Pei Yansi, Chen Lingmeng felt humiliated and could only shrink back, quietly like a quail, and was pushed away by Chen Wenzhou.

After the Chen family left, only Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu were left in the resting room.

Shen Heyu immediately reached out to help Pei Yansi sit down on the sofa next to him.

"When did you wake up? I’m going to call the doctor to check on you now. The doctor said your condition is serious, and you need to rest properly. I’m not sure if it aggravated your injuries just now."

Shen Heyu anxiously examined Pei Yansi’s abdomen. Though Pei Yansi was wearing a hospital gown, a faint trace of blood could be seen staining his clothing.

Pei Yansi quietly watched Shen Heyu’s concerned and comforting demeanor, and the corners of his mouth weakly curled up into a reassuring smile.

"Were you just caring for me?"

Hearing his words, Shen Heyu almost subconsciously lowered her head, unable to meet his gaze, and turned her back to Pei Yansi.

Pretending to be busy, she poured him a glass of water and took the opportunity to avoid Pei Yansi’s eyes, secretly taking a deep breath to stabilize her emotions.

"You’re hurt because of me, of course, I care about you."

"Is that really all?" Pei Yansi pressed, naturally taking the glass of water that Shen Heyu brought him.

"Um," Shen Heyu’s voice sounded deeply.

But Pei Yansi did not believe, his profound gaze gradually brightened as he looked at Shen Heyu, "I remember before I passed out, I asked you a question. Zhao Jin appeared at the wrong time and I didn’t hear your answer, could you answer it again?"

Shen Heyu’s face turned red, and her ears followed, burning with heat, as she looked timidly at Pei Yansi.

"The most important thing for you now is to recover well; stop thinking about other things," Shen Heyu bluntly changed the topic.

Pei Yansi, holding a cup of water, chuckled, "Hasn’t the doctor told you, that a patient needs to keep a cheerful mood for wounds to heal quickly? If you answer my question again, I promise my injuries will heal very quickly."

This left Shen Heyu speechlessly silent for a long time.

Shen Heyu stood in place, her piercing gaze observing Pei Yansi, until she noticed his expression gradually becoming unnatural.

"Why are you continuously staring at me?"

"I feel that since attending Chen Wenzhou’s wedding, you’ve become a different person, so much so that I don’t recognize you anymore."

The current Pei Yansi really made Shen Heyu feel estranged but, at the same time, close.

"So do you like the current me, or the past me?"

"Of course, the current Pei Yansi..." in fact, Shen Heyu also really liked the past Pei Yansi, but that kind of liking was something she found hard to express.

Shen Heyu almost answered without thinking and abruptly cut herself off after a few words.

She had fallen into Pei Yansi’s trap.

"Um?" Pei Yansi elongated his tone, his pitch rising at the end; he leisurely looked at Shen Heyu, awaiting her continuation.

"You are a patient now, can’t you talk less? Didn’t the doctor tell you that speaking less helps in rapid recovery?"

"The doctor really didn’t tell me that; which doctor told you this?" Pei Yansi teased Shen Heyu.

Actually, this was something Shen Heyu made up, not something any doctor had said.

"Alright, just shut up, talk less. I’ll help you go back to your ward to lie down," Shen Heyu, stepping in, supported Pei Yansi and slowly walked him out.

But just as she walked out of the resting room, the figure of a person appeared at the end of the corridor quivering, and then he called out Shen Heyu’s name in a trembling voice.

"Heyu?"

Lu Yi stood frozen on the spot for a second in disbelief but quickly rushed up to Shen Heyu like a flash of lightning.

"Lu Yi, why are you here?" Shen Heyu looked at Lu Yi in confusion; she hadn’t mentioned to Lu Yi about being in the hospital.

Lu Yi, frowning, looked at the two of them clinging to each other, and forcefully pulled Pei Yansi away from Shen Heyu.

The moment Lu Yi touched Pei Yansi, Shen Heyu’s heart clenched; she hastily warned, "Don’t touch him, he is injured!"

Her voice was urgent, and her shout startled Lu Yi into a breathless pause, freezing him in place.

"Heyu, what does Pei Yansi’s matter have to do with you? Have you forgotten how he treated you back then?"

"But this time, he got injured while protecting me!" Shen Heyu could not consider everything, she pushed away Lu Yi and supported Pei Yansi.

"So you just want to forgive everything easily?"
