Wen Xuchen couldn’t be angry at such a childish trick.

Compared to her sister’s methods, this little action was really child’s play.

However, such a childish trick made him grit his teeth.

Not long after she returned to the country, she was hospitalized for her first meal.

Now that her stomach was empty, although she had no appetite at first, she couldn’t help but be seduced by the scent.

After all, it was his preference.

There were also many overseas restaurants that went all the way to China just to satisfy their cravings.

Moreover, it was authentic locally.

Her appetite was aroused, but she could only watch as this girl swayed in front of her.

At first glance, she looked obedient, but her lethality to him was beyond his expectations.

After all, she had done the most embarrassing thing that had nearly killed him in a day.

Seeing his ugly expression, Yuan Muchun didn’t dare to continue showing off. After eating, she quickly took the food away.

After that, she felt good and didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

Wen Xuchen leaned against the bed and read his documents without a word. Looking at how he was holding a cup of water and shrinking his neck carefully, he felt both angry and amused.

A little trickster.

In the evening, a few visitors came to the ward.

Two handsome men walked in. They looked like they were from rich families.

One of them was wearing a suit, but he looked like a ruffian. The other was dressed casually in a black sweater and a gray coat. He looked simple but steady.

Yuan Muchun was dozing off on the sofa. When the two of them saw her, their expressions were inexplicably strange.

“Why are you here?”

Wen Xuchen’s voice drew their attention back.

The steady man said, “I wanted to hold a welcome party for you, but you entered the hospital first.”

The man in the suit said, “I heard it’s food poisoning? What’s so toxic?”

Yuan Sichun felt a little awkward.

She also felt that it was ridiculous.

Wen Xuchen glanced at the man in the suit calmly. “It sounds like you’re here to laugh at me.”

The man in the suit chuckled and couldn’t be bothered to deny it. Instead, he suddenly shifted his gaze to Yuan Muchun.

“Who are you?”

“I’m…” Yuan Muchun paused. “The person who sent him to the hospital.”

The man in the suit raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, “Thank you.”

Yuan Muchun chuckled and glanced at Wen Xuchen guiltily. “…You’re welcome. It’s what I should do.”

The corners of the suited man’s lips curled up slightly as he looked at Yuan Muchun with his dazzled eyes. His gaze swept across her face without hiding his emotions. In the end, his eyes were filled with excitement.

“How can you not thank me? You saved my brother’s life. I have to thank you properly. I’ll treat you to a meal later.”

“There’s really no need…”

The man in the suit continued, “Miss, what’s your name?”

“Zhuang Chen.” Wen Xuchen’s deep voice sounded. “Don’t tease her.”

Zhuang Chen turned his head and met Wen Xuchen’s cold face with an obvious warning.

Their gazes met for a few seconds before Zhuang Chen chuckled and said, “Could it be Sister-in-law?”

Wen Xuchen remained silent.

Yuan Muchun didn’t either.

This man called Zhuang Chen could tell at first glance that he wasn’t serious. Especially when he looked at people, his eyes and attitude were unrestrained and frivolous.

Although Wen Xuchen had deliberately used the word “kidding” to express his thoughts, it was enough to prove her guess about Zhuang Chen.

She couldn’t wait for Wen Xuchen to agree.

After all, a friend’s wife shouldn’t be bullied.

Otherwise, he would be pestered in the future.

“Alright, no wonder you don’t have to thank me. I’ve become an outsider.” Zhuang Chen shrugged and said, “But we have to have a good gathering. Remember to bring her out and introduce her to us next time. Remind them to watch out and not get into any conflict with Sister-in-law.”

Wen Xuchen hummed in acknowledgment.

With that casual reply, Yuan Muchun suddenly felt a little lost.

Even though she knew he was being perfunctory.

Strange.
