Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

-What could possibly happen to me?” Ji Yuanyuan’s nervousness was immediately eased by Qin Mucheng.

Qin Mucheng heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you’re fine. I’ll contact the Gu family now.”

Originally, the Gu family had planned to lend Sheng He a loan.

Therefore, Qin Mucheng and Qin Junshan had drunk with Gu Zhiyan’s father.

Qin Mucheng called President Gu.

However, President Gu immediately hung up.

He probably thought that Qin Mucheng was looking for him about the loan. Qin Mucheng sent a message to President Gu helplessly. “President Gu, your daughter had a heart attack. She’s at the First Hospital now.” When President Gu saw this message, he immediately called back.

Before Gu Zhiyan’s family arrived, Ji Yuanyuan did not dare to leave. Gu Zhiyan was sent to the emergency room for emergency treatment while she waited at the door of the emergency room.

What Ji Yuanyuan did not expect was that the first person to come was not President Gu or Cao Xiangrong, but Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi was considered Ji Zi’ang’s boss, so Ji Yuanyuan had seen him before.

The moment he saw Lin Zhi, Ji Yuanyuan was surprised. “CEO Lin?” “Where’S Gu Zhiyan?” Lin Zhi asked anxiously when he saw Ji Yuanyuan. “Where is she?”

In Ji Yuanyuan’s impression, Lin Zhi was a very calm person.

Seeing how anxious he was, Ji Yuanyuan seemed to understand something.

“In the emergency room,” she stood up.

“How’s the situation? Is it serious?” Lin Zhi asked again.

He looked like he was desperate.

“I’m not too sure yet,” Ji Yuanyuan whispered. “The doctor hasn’t come out yet.

Lin Zhi paced on the spot.

Ji Yuanyuan sat down silently.

Not long after, President Gu and Cao Xiangrong arrived almost one after the other.

“What are you doing here?” Cao Xiangrong was even more surprised than Ji Yuanyuan when he saw Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi glanced at Cao Xiangrong coldly and didn’t answer him.

Since Gu Zhiyan’s family members were already here, Ji Yuanyuan had no intention of making her presence known.

She left the hospital quietly.

Ji Yuanyuan came out of the hospital and saw Qin Mucheng waiting at the door. He was wearing a long gray windbreaker today. Standing in the midst of the flickering lights, Ji Yuanyuan’s heart thumped wildly.

Qin Mucheng walked out from the shadows and held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand naturally. “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet.” Ji Yuanyuan followed behind him and shook his head.

“Let’s go home for dinner,” said Qin Mucheng.

He held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and quickly arrived in front of the car.

“My car is still parked on the road opposite Wen Yu,” Ji Yuanyuan recalled when she saw the car.

“You don’t have to worry about it. I’ll get someone to drive it home for you later.” Qin Mucheng opened the door of the passenger seat and raised his hand to cover the car frame.

Ji Yuanyuan got into the car, and Qin Mucheng returned to the driver’s seat. At this time, the road was already brightly lit, and it was the most congested time.

Qin Mucheng’s car was on the road, and it took a while before it moved. The people who were waiting for him were a little anxious.

The atmosphere in the car was a little awkward. Ji Yuanyuan was about to say something when Qin Mucheng suddenly asked, “Are you looking for Gu Zhiyan about the loan?”

Qin Mucheng did not even look at Ji Yuanyuan when he asked this question.

It was as if he had asked an extremely ordinary question.

However, Ji Yuanyuan knew that Qin Mucheng was angry.

“Yes, I just wanted to ask if there’s any way to salvage this matter,” she said in a low voice after a moment of silence.

Qin Mucheng hummed in acknowledgment but did not say anything. Ji Yuanyuan waited for a while, but Qin Mucheng did not speak. She quietly looked up at him.

He pursed his lips tightly and stared ahead.

“Are you angry?” she asked tentatively.

“No, I’m not angry,” Qin Mucheng answered quickly.

He was clearly angry.

Ji Yuanyuan thought that since he was driving, some words were not easy to say.

It would not be worth it if Qin Mucheng was distracted and an accident happened.

She remained silent until she reached home.

At home, Cheng Shuqin and the others had already eaten dinner.

“She hasn’t eaten yet,” Qin Mucheng said as he entered the room.

With that, he went upstairs.

“What happened to him?” Cheng Shuqin looked at Ji Yuanyuan in confusion.

Ji Yuanyuan looked embarrassed. “It’s fine. We just had a quarrel on the way.” As for the Gu family, since it didn’t work out, there was no need to mention it and make Cheng Shuqin and the others worry.

Tangtang was nestled in Cheng Shuqin’s arms. Her big eyes darted around. She leaned close to Cheng Shuqin’s ear and asked, “Grandma, is Daddy angry?

Cheng Shuqin glanced at Ji Yuanyuan and knew what was going on. Something must have happened. It was definitely not something as simple as a quarrel.

She knew her son’s temper. He treated Yuanyuan like a precious baby. How could he get angry just because of a few words?

She coaxed Tangtang. “Yes, Daddy is angry. Tangtang, can you sleep on the second floor with Grandpa and Grandma tonight?”

“Alright.” Tangtang stuck her head out and looked at Ji Yuanyuan. She nodded without any hesitation.

Ji Yuanyuan ate quickly and followed Qin Mucheng up to the third floor.

Qin Mucheng was not in the master bedroom.

Ji Yuanyuan went to the study room again. Indeed, Qin Mucheng was there. He was sitting behind his desk, frowning as he read a document. He raised his eyes slightly when he heard the sound by the door. Seeing that it was Ji Yuanyuan at the door, his brows relaxed a little. Then, he lowered his head and continued to read the documents.

Ji Yuanyuan placed the cup of water on the desk. “Alright, don’t be angry. I admit that it was my fault that I didn’t discuss this with you, but Gu Zhiyan didn’t make things difficult for me.”

She knew that Qin Mucheng was angry because he loved her for her.

He wanted to protect her, not wanting her to be put in a difficult position outside.

Qin Mucheng’s lips twitched. He did not believe it. “Forget about today. Don’t contact Gu Zhiyan anymore. You saved Gu Zhiyan, but the Gu family might not appreciate it.”

Ji Yuanyuan knew this.

She knew that Gu Zhiyan’s fall had nothing to do with her. She was the one who saved Gu Zhiyan.

But President Gu didn’t know that. In his eyes, Gu Zhiyan only acted up after meeting her.

He might even suspect she had said something to provoke Gu Zhiyan, causing her to act up.

Therefore, it was okay if Gu Zhiyan could wake up and was willing to prove it for her. If something happened to Gu Zhiyan, or if Gu Zhiyan didn’t explain anything, then she really couldn’t explain it even if she had a mouth.

“I know. I won’t do it again.” Ji Yuanyuan did not explain further. She took a few steps forward and stood behind Qin Mucheng. She gently wrapped her arms around Qin Mucheng’s shoulders.

“I was really shocked when I received your call.” Qin Mucheng sighed..
