Lin Qingqian stood at the side and watched Lu Yuan treat his wound. He wrapped the gauze around it and tied a knot.

Jiang Yanshen looked up at her and pursed his lips. “I'm fine.”

His voice was hoarse, and the fatigue between his brows could not be concealed.

Lin Qingqian stared at him with her bright eyes for a moment and did not say a word. She turned around and walked to the water dispenser to pour him some water.

Gu Xici walked in and glanced at Jiang Yanshen's exhausted expression. His sharp eyes couldn't hide his worry. “Fortunately, you didn't hurt anyone. Otherwise, you would be the headline on the trending searches later.”

Lin Qingqian walked over with a cup of water and handed it to him. She instructed Lu Yuan, “Go and tell them not to spread what happened today.

Otherwise, they'll bear the consequences.”

“Yes.” Lu Yuan nodded and left with the medicine box.

Jiang Yanshen held the cup in his left hand and took a few sips. His dry throat was moistened as he stared at Lin Qingqian with his black eyes. “Go back. Xici is enough here.”

Lin Qingqian stood still. “Where's the medicine?”

“I've already eaten it when Shen Zhiwei came.” Jiang Yanshen's thin lips curled up slightly as he tried his best to squeeze out a smile, not wanting her to worry.

Lin Qingqian saw something surging in his bright eyes. Her red lips curled up slightly, and her voice was clear. “You really didn't hide anything from me?”

“No,” Jiang Yanshen replied without thinking, his clear eyes filled with tenderness. “I promised you that I wouldn't lie to you.”

Lin Qingqian took a deep breath and her gaze landed on Gu Xici's face. “I still have to go back to the company first. I'll leave him to you.”

Gu Xici nodded. “I'm fine today. I promise to send him back to Begonia Courtyard safely later.”

“Thank you.”

“You're welcome.”

Because Gu Xici was around, Lin Qingqian could only look at him deeply before turning to leave the office.

As soon as she left, Jiang Yunshen came over.

“Why did Sister-in-law leave?” Jiang Yunshen complained unhappily, “I specially asked her to come over and accompany you.”

Jiang Yanshen's lowered eyelashes suddenly fluttered as he threw a cold gaze over…

Jiang Yunshen's heart skipped a beat as he asked carefully, “Should I… not notify Sister-in-law?”

Jiang Yanshen's exquisite facial features were covered in a thick layer of frost. Without a word, he stood up, pulled out a document from his desk, and threw it into his arms.

Jiang Yunshen caught the document in a hurry. Before he could speak, he heard

Jiang Yanshen's cold voice. “You handle this UK project.” “Brother!” Jiang Yunshen immediately wailed, “Can I not go?” Who knew how afraid he was of going to England!

“Don't you have anything in Africa, Japan… or Laos or Myanmar?!”

As long as it was not England!

He really did not want his butt to be touched when he walked on the street!

“It's either England or…” The cold voice paused. His sharp eyes shot towards him as he slowly finished the second half of his sentence. “You can seek guidance from Xici.”

Gu Xici, who was called out, raised his eyebrows and looked at him. Was this to take Yunshen's life?

Jiang Yunshen's face was ashen with fear. “What's the difference between this and asking me to die?”

“Brother, my dear brother, I didn't do it on purpose. Can't you forgive me this time… ”

He did not want to choose either option.

Jiang Yanshen looked at him without saying anything, his expression saying everything.

“Alright! If you want me to die, I have nothing to say!” Jiang Yunshen pulled his tie, took off his coat, and threw it on the sofa before lying on the ground. He turned to look at Gu Xici. “Come on, I won't fight back. I can't beat you anyway.”

The 1.85 -meter-tall man lay on the ground like a big worm. His vicious eyes seemed to be saying, “Come on, ravage me.”

Gu Xici:

Jiang Yanshen: “…”

After a moment of silence, Jiang Yanshen said, “Get lost!”

“Siu!” Jiang Yunshen's closed eyes quickly opened when he heard his words. He got up, picked up his clothes, and ran.

Gu Xici's good-looking lips curled into a helpless smile. “Your brother… is really a clown.”

Jiang Yanshen rubbed the space between his eyebrows. “He really knows how to cause trouble for me.”

Gu Xici caught the flash of irritation in his eyes and the smile on his lips disappeared. He said in a serious tone, “Are you hiding something from us?”

Jiang Yanshen looked up at him and quickly lowered his gaze without saying anything.

“You can't lie to me.” Gu Xici's tone was very certain. This was his understanding as a friend and his intuition as a police officer.

Jiang Yanshen's tightly pursed thin lips moved slowly. “I stopped taking the medicine.”

Gu Xici was stunned.

In the evening.

When Lin Qingqian returned to Begonia Courtyard, Jiang Yanshen had already returned. Gu Xici was also there and playing chess with him.

She took off her coat and hung it on the hanger. She was wearing a beige sweater under it. The beige fur accentuated her gentle temperament.

She walked to Jiang Yanshen's side and sat down, saying softly, “Are you alright?”

He could only hook her little finger with his exposed finger. “Do I look like I'm alright?”

Seeing that his expression was much better, Lin Qingqian's uneasy emotions gradually dissipated.

“What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook personally.” She asked the two men's opinions gently.

Gu Xici held the chess piece in his hand and did not speak. He glanced at Jiang Yanshen opposite him.

Jiang Yanshen turned his head and said, “Xici likes spicy food like you.”

Lin Qingqian was extremely smart and instantly understood the meaning behind his words. “I'll go make dinner. It'll be quick.”

“Take your time. This game of chess won't end so quickly.” Jiang Yanshen was afraid that she would be anxious and hurt herself.

Lin Qingqian smiled and walked to the kitchen.

Gu Xici looked up at him with a faint smile. “Looks like you don't intend to give me a quick death.”

In terms of chess, he had never won against Jiang Yanshen.

“Qianqian's culinary skills are very good. You didn't lose out.” Jiang Yanshen's thin lips curled up slightly, and his tone was faintly proud.

Gu Xici laughed and shook his head.

For dinner, Lin Qingqian prepared six dishes. There were light and heavy flavors, and she took care of both their tastes.

Gu Xici usually ate in the station's canteen. When he suddenly tastes Lin Qingqian's dishes, he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

“It's a pity that you didn't open a restaurant with your skills.”

Lin Qingqian smiled faintly. “I only know a few dishes. If I open a restaurant, it will definitely close down.”

“A few signature dishes are enough.” Gu Xici sighed. “If the chefs in the bureau had your culinary skills, I would be happy to stay in the bureau every day.” Jiang Yanshen said casually, “Your bureau can't afford to hire Qianqian.”

Asking Madam Jiang to cook for them. Aren't they afraid of getting indigestion?

Gu Xici and Lin Qingqian looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

This man was too serious. He couldn't even joke around.

After dinner, Gu Xici went back.

Lin Qingqian tidied up the kitchen and went upstairs with a glass of water. Jiang Yanshen had just come out of the bathroom.

She handed him the water and medicine. “Take the medicine.”

Jiang Yanshen took the pill calmly and put it in his mouth. Then, he took the glass of water and drank half a glass.

“I'm going to take a shower. Wipe your hair first and I'll blow dry it for you later.” Lin Qingqian brought him a clean towel.

“Alright.” Jiang Yanshen took the towel and sat on the sofa, wiping his hair with his left hand.

Lin Qingqian watched his broad back view for a moment before taking his clothes to the bathroom.

When Jiang Yanshen heard the sound of the door closing, he turned his head slightly and waited for the sound of water flowing from the bathroom. Then, he spat out the pills under the tip of his tongue, wrapped them in a tissue, and threw them into the trash can.

It was cold outside the window late at night, but it was a hot summer inside.

Lin Qingqian carefully held his injured right hand and said worriedly, “Be careful not to touch it.”

Jiang Yanshen leaned down to kiss her and said in a hoarse voice, “I'm fine…”

Lin Qingqian's face was red as she squeezed out a soft sentence between her teeth. “One hand is fine too?”

Tiang Vanshen pansed and smiled- “Do von want to check?”

Lin Qingqian was extremely shy. How could she really check?

Even if his right hand was injured, it did not affect the man's performance at all. After that, Lin Qingqian was so tired that she could not open her eyes.

Jiang Yanshen got up and went to the bathroom to get a clean towel to wipe her body. Then, he cleaned himself up and threw away the trash in the trash can.

When he returned, Lin Qingqian had already fallen asleep.

He sat by the bed sleeplessly, his deep eyes staring at her sleeping face. He was unprecedentedly satisfied.

He leaned over and gently kissed her cheek.

His dark eyes were filled with gentle determination.

No matter how difficult it was, no matter how much pain and torture he had to endure, he would give her whatever she wanted.

He was willing to give his body and love to her. Even his life was in her hands.

For the next few days, Lin Qingqian personally brought him medicine and water every day. She only felt relieved after seeing him eat the medicine with her own eyes.

As usual, Jiang Yanshen hid the medicine under his tongue and pretended to take it.

He knew that Lin Qingqian was very smart. She must have started to suspect something, so he had to do it flawlessly, regardless of whether it was controlling his emotions or in bed.

Without the help of the medicine, his sleep quality became worse and worse. He often opened his eyes until dawn.

In order not to look like he was in a bad state of mind and make Qianqian suspicious, he would add half a piece of sleeping pill to Lin Qingqian's milk every few days to let her sleep.

This way, Lin Qingqian would be able to sleep until dawn and not wake up in the middle of the night unable to find him. She wouldn't also be as worried as last time.

He went to Shen Zhiwei's clinic and relied on her hypnosis to sleep for two to three hours everyday.

It's Christmas, and owing to the brand events and the concurrent commercial performances by multiple artists, Shi Guang Studio's team is needed to provide styling support for these contracted performances.

Lin Qingqian and Han Liubai each brought two teams separately. They were busy from morning to night and only had a bowl of wontons for lunch.

At around nine in the evening, Lin Qingqian dragged her tired body back to Begonia Courtyard.

Although it was not snowing, it was cold. The bright moon hung alone in the night like a pancake.

Lin Qingqian looked up at the cold moonlight. Her breath emitted balls of mist, as if she was letting out a long breath.

Jiang Yanshen heard the sound of a car in the living room. After waiting for a long time, no one came in. He stood up and walked to the door to see her thin figure standing outside in a daze..
