Chapter 237: What Was Overlooked?

"Sorry, A Jue went to take a shower. Do you have anything else you want me to pass on?" Yun Ruojin said after hearing Xie Zian finish his scolding.

Upon hearing a woman's voice, Xie Zian was momentarily stunned, then quickly recovered.

"You're Yun Ruojin? Since when did Fu Sijue get engaged to you? How come I never heard of it?" Xie Zian wasn't about to let Yun Ruojin off.

Yun Ruojin's face instantly broke into a smile upon hearing that.

It seems Lu Xiwán was badly injured, so she doesn't even dare to ask these questions herself.

"Just last time, Grandpa Fu and the others finalized our marriage. As for why it hasn't been announced, Grandpa Fu's health is poor, so we plan to make it public after he is discharged."

All of that, of course, was Yun Ruojin's fabrication; Fu Sijue had no knowledge of it.

However, she did it on Fu Zhuo's orders.

Fu Mingcheng had been in the ICU, which gave them an opening; using that opening to force Fu Sijue to agree was far easier than trying to persuade him.

Upon hearing that, Xie Zian hung up the phone and sped to the hospital in his car.

He inquired about Fu Mingcheng's ward location and ran straight there.

As soon as Xie Zian pushed the door open, Yun Ruojin blocked his way.

Xie Zian wore a stern expression, staring at Yun Ruojin, "Didn't you say it was you who finalized it? I'm here to ask Fu Sijue's opinion, and you still don't dare?"

Fearing she'd disturb Fu Sijue, Yun Ruojin quickly pulled him into a corner.

"Grandpa Fu's condition is truly critical; A Jue has been up for several nights straight over company matters, and I called you out only to prevent you from disturbing A Jue's rest!"

Yun Ruojin spoke persuasively, making Xie Zian look like the bad guy.

Xie Zian had no time to waste with Yun Ruojin: "I'm only asking one question."

Yun Ruojin grabbed Xie Zian's hand and said, "If you move again, I'll claim assault!"

Xie Zian looked at Yun Ruojin coldly, wondering what new tricks this woman might still pull.

"I also know you and A Jue have been playing together since childhood; it's natural for you to care about A Jue, but you can't become a weapon in someone else's hands!"

Yun Ruojin's words, both on the surface and underneath, all hinted at Lu Xiwán, but Xie Zian wasn't fooled at all; he just stared straight at Yun Ruojin.

"A Jue is now physically and mentally exhausted; even if he sees you, he couldn't say much. As for you, do you think Lu Xiwán is a woman without any scheming?"

Yun Ruojin spoke earnestly, then in an instant splashed a bucket of dirty water on Lu Xiwán; Xie Zian could only laugh.

Lu Xiwán had been his classmate for years, and Xie Zian knew whose words—Yun Ruojin's or Lu Xiwán's—carried more weight.

"Have you said enough?"

Xie Zian wouldn't buy Yun Ruojin's act at all and insisted on seeing Fu Sijue.

Yun Ruojin snorted, "I still have plenty of leverage over you; if you keep being disrespectful today, don't blame me for being rude."

If you can't be soft, then be hard; Yun Ruojin wasn't vague at all.

Xie Zian's gaze was deep as he looked at Yun Ruojin, trying to see what intentions lay beneath that beautiful exterior.

"A Jue and I are already a done deal; I hope you and Lu Xiwán will never disturb our lives again, otherwise… don't even think about staying in Haicheng!"

Yun Ruojin's fierce expression showed, and after saying that she turned and returned to the ward.
