“!!!!”
What nonsense was this fellow spouting!
“My limbs are stiff. I can’t dance.”
Wen Xuchen said firmly, “I’ll dance that rabbit dance.”
Yuan Muchun was stunned for a moment before her face turned red.
!!“I… I don’t know how!”
Wen Xuchen reached for his phone and tapped on it a few times. Familiar yet unfamiliar music sounded in the ward.
Hearing the prelude, Yuan Muchun wanted to find a hole to hide in.
“You… you…”
She glared at Wen Xuchen for a long time, her face flushed red.
There were so many songs in the world, why did it have to be this one?
God knew how many years she had been ridiculed by her family because of this dance.
Back then, when she went on stage to perform, she showed off in front of her grandparents the day before. Everyone praised her and applauded her.
Only a good-looking boy didn’t praise her and even gave her a perfunctory comment.
Children were either beautiful or ugly.
She couldn’t accept this evaluation!
Hence, her confidence was instantly shattered. The next day, she refused to go on stage and was forcefully pushed out. In the end, she ended up crying the entire time.
Laughter sounded from below the stage from time to time. At that time, she was wondering why those people could laugh so happily when she was so sad.
Little did she know that her performance had been recorded and her grandparents had used it to “show off”.
She would be mentioned every time she met someone. Even now, when she met elders, she would mention them.
There were probably videos of her online.
It had happened so long ago. Why did she suddenly appear here?
“You really don’t know how to dance?”
Wen Xuchen didn’t deny that he was bored. He was making fun of her and he had unprecedented patience.
Seeing her blushing face, he continued,
“Then I’ll get you a video. You should be able to do it after watching it once.”
“Don’t!” Yuan Muchun hurriedly extended his hand to stop her. “Don’t, don’t, don’t! I… I know how to dance. Even if I can’t dance well, it’s not impossible…”
Wen Xuchen raised an eyebrow and nodded. His slender fingers swayed on the phone for a while before he said, “Okay, let’s begin!”
The music on the phone sounded again. Yuan Muchun closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When the time came, she opened her eyes and her limbs started to move stiffly.
The woman was embarrassed and the man seemed to have a bad taste.
Once she wasn’t skilled enough, he made her dance a second time. Yuan Muchun gritted her teeth.
A person’s face had to be trained. In the beginning, she would feel so awkward if she were to expose her dark history to others alone in the hospital ward that she would want to find a hole to hide in. But after the second time, she felt that it didn’t matter.
However, not long after she mentally prepared herself, the door to the ward was pushed open without any warning.
Yuan Muchun froze and stared blankly at the door.
Wen Xuchen’s assistant, Wu Sheng, froze at the door with his hand on the doorknob. For a moment, he was dumbfounded.
The woman standing in the middle of the ward had her hands crossed above her head. Her legs were slightly bent as if she was about to jump.
She wore simple jeans and a knitted orange sweater with a white lace design at the collar.
At first glance, she really looked like a rabbit who liked to eat carrots.
When he came back to his senses, he subconsciously looked at his superior, who had called him over. Even though he was usually indifferent and distant, there was a faint smile on his face. Upon closer inspection, there was probably a hint of schadenfreude.
Thinking of the strange news he had just received, the current situation was probably within his expectations.
Yuan Muchun snapped back to her senses and the embarrassment that she had just concealed surged. She quickly retracted her hand and pretended to be calm. Her face was red as she walked to the bedside table and drank two glasses of water.
Through the transparent glass, a pair of bright eyes stared straight at the face of the man on the bed. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that he deserved a slap. Her palms itched.
Wen Xuchen glanced at Wu Sheng, who had already walked in, and the expression on his face gradually faded.
Perhaps sensing her intense gaze, his gaze turned cold.
“What are you looking at?”
Yuan Muchun gritted her teeth and put down the cup. She shook her head and said, “No, since you have something to say, I’ll leave first…”
In the end, when the assistant handed him the document, Wen Xuchen replied calmly, “Yes.”
With just one word, Yuan Muchun had already reached the door.
Just as he was about to take a step forward, Wen Xuchen’s cold voice sounded behind him.
“Come back in half an hour. Otherwise, bear the consequences.”
Yuan Muchun closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then, she turned around and left with a smile. She even closed the door behind her.
Then, she turned around and her face fell.
She cursed Wen Xuchen in her heart again. Then, the awkward scene from before surged into her mind. Her dark history had turned dark again. She couldn’t help but grin in shame and run away with her face covered.
In the ward, Wu Sheng recounted the situation of the Yuan Corporation to Wen Xuchen, as well as what happened at the Qin family’s foolish young master’s birthday party two days ago.
It was mentioned that the Yuan family had been planning to “sell” Yuan Muchun all these years, especially when they almost schemed against that fool this time. Wen Xuchen held the document for a long time.
Wu Sheng added, “Second Miss Yuan has been interacting more with the Bo family recently. I believe someone must have reminded her about this. Otherwise, with Second Miss Yuan’s personality, she wouldn’t have done such a thing.”
Therefore, if someone hadn’t reminded her, she would have been tricked this time.
Wu Sheng narrowed his eyes and felt a chill.

When Wu Sheng left, he bumped into Yuan Muchun at the entrance of the hospital.
The two of them greeted each other politely. Recalling the coldness he felt in the ward, Wu Sheng looked at the half-eaten ice cream in Yuan Muchun’s hand and said,
“Miss Yuan, the weather is cold now. Eating this is not good for a woman’s health.”
Yuan Muchun waved her hand and said, “I’m too angry. This thing can save my life.”
Especially since the last few words were squeezed out through gritted teeth, Wu Sheng found it funny. He paused before saying,
“In short, it’s better for Miss Yuan to eat less… Is Miss Yuan having lunch at the hospital restaurant or do you have other plans? Do you want me to arrange it for you?”
“Huh?” Yuan Muchun paused and looked at the clock in the hospital lobby.
It was indeed noon.
With that reminder, she suddenly felt hungry.
She had eaten a cucumber and a tomato last night. Because she had been keeping an eye on him, she didn’t have time to eat breakfast. Now that she thought about it, she should have fainted from hunger.
Lowering her head to look at the ice cream in her hand, she quickly took a bite. After a cold shock, she shuddered and her dark eyes darted around before she smiled at Wu Sheng.
“Because… I might have to take care of Mr. Wen for a few days in the future, so I need to understand his taste. Why don’t you help me arrange some of his favorite dishes today? I’ll try them and try to cook for him in the future!”
“You’re cooking for CEO Wen?” Wu Sheng couldn’t help but ask. He swept his gaze across the hospital lobby before looking at Yuan Muchun warily. “Are you sure?”
“Uh…” Yuan Muchun was embarrassed for a moment. “Actually, cooking isn’t difficult. This was just an accident, but it’s not because of my culinary skills. It’s because the instant noodles have expired!”
Wu Sheng was speechless. Instant noodles had taken the blame.
However, he thought that since Yuan Muchun had good intentions and asked him to arrange lunch, it was fine for him to do so.
“Okay, I’ll get someone to send the food to you later.”
Yuan Muchun’s eyes lit up instantly.
She hummed a tune all the way back to the ward. Wen Xuchen stared at her as she sat on the sofa. Her heartlessness combined with Wu Sheng’s words made his already gloomy face darken.
“Are you happy?”
Yuan Muchun looked at him and was shocked by the gloominess on his face.
“I… can’t be happy?”
Wen Xuchen stared at her silently. His cold silence made Yuan Muchun feel especially puzzled.
After a while, Wen Xuchen said calmly, “Continue to be happy.”
Was he crazy? Why was he suddenly so sarcastic?
However, thinking of the lunch later, she smiled and showed him her eight teeth.
Her face, which had some baby fat, was so tender that water could be squeezed out of it. The pinkness in her fair skin was like an icy peach.
Her eyes were clean and she didn’t have any expression on her face. In fact, she looked a little silly.
Such a girl should always be happy.
She retracted her gaze and picked up the document again. Her voice was gentle.
“What made you so happy?”
Yuan Muchun raised her eyebrows smugly. “You’ll know in a while.”
Not long after, various dishes were placed on the coffee table in the ward. The room was filled with the smell of food.
Yuan Muchun’s eyes lit up as she circled the coffee table.
The moment he saw the food, Wen Xuchen’s face darkened. He had some guesses, but he didn’t confirm them.
He was only 100,000% sure when the woman sat beside him with a bowl in her hand.
This woman had done it on purpose.
“I didn’t expect you to have such good taste.”
“Are they all your favorite dishes?”
“Are you hungry?”
“It’s a pity that you can’t eat yet.”
Wen Xuchen was speechless.
He decided to take back his words. Her face was perfect for crying.
Crying was the most pleasing to the eye.
PS: Update before midnight today.
He would continue tomorrow.
