“Didn’t you already go home? Why are you back here again?” Henry questioned.

“If I don’t come back, who’s going to take care of you at night?”

“Anyone can do that. Just get a nurse to look after me,” Henry answered while avoiding eye contact with her.

Hu Xin was once again confused about what was going on. However, she knew better than to interrupt and hence remained silent while standing at the side.

 “The nurse may be able to take care of you, but there’s something that the nurse can’t do…” An Xiaoning walked toward the other side of the bed and placed her wallet into her purse. She then took out a small cosmetic pouch from her purse and placed it onto the table together with the bag of alcohol. She continued, “For example, satisfy your sexual needs.”

Henry scoffed while the dumbfounded Hu Xin stared at An Xiaoning in disdain.

However, An Xiaoning was not bothered by her opinion at all. She said, “Ms. Hu, you may leave if there’s nothing else. Stop getting in the way.”

Hu Xin bit her lip and stood rooted to the ground. Seeing her remaining still, An Xiaoning questioned, “Are you thinking of staying behind?”

 “Ms. An, don’t you think that you’ve gone overboard?”

 “How so?”

 “Mr. Jin clearly doesn’t fancy or love you anymore. Why do you have to continue pestering him? Do you really think you’ll be able to win his heart again by doing so? Will Mr. Jin be truly happy? I admit, you’re very formidable. However, you’re going overboard if you use your power to inflict pain and misery onto others.”

“I’m indeed going overboard, what’s wrong?”

 “Why do people like you even exist… I’m not leaving tonight. If you get your bodyguards to chase me out again, I’ll kill myself here,” said Hu Xin, who could not tolerate it any further.

“Kill yourself here?” An Xiaoning squinted and gibed in a hostile tone, “Do you think that… your life is valuable? You’d better hurry and get lost before I blow my top.”

Pointing at An Xiaoning, Henry snapped, “Enough! Get out of here. I’d rather look at her than you!”

An Xiaoning took a deep breath and glared at Henry. “Repeat yourself.”

“So what even if I repeat myself? You should’ve just stayed home, why did you come back? You’re such an eyesore.”

She walked toward the end of the bed and grazed her hand against the cast on his calf. She pressed her finger down gently and said, “Continue and repeat yourself.”

 Henry grimaced in pain instantly. At the sight of what was happening, Hu Xin immediately pushed An Xiaoning away, only to have the latter dodge in time. As a result, Hu Xin lost her balance and stumbled forward onto An Xiaoning. An Xiaoning tightened her grip all of a sudden, causing Henry to grunt in pain and screech, “An Xiaoning, let go!”

Extremely displeased, An Xiaoning decided to press down even harder.

 Henry had already broken out into a cold sweat by the time she let go.

He had turned as pale as a ghost, and the pain had robbed him of his speech.

Unable to tolerate it any further, Hu Xin rebuked, “An Xiaoning, you’re atrocious! I’ve never seen such a shameless person like you before. I knew it, you were the one who threatened Mr. Jin into sacking me!”

Not bothering to look at her at all, An Xiaoning said, “If you’re not going to leave on your own, I’ll have no choice but to get someone to chase you out.”

Hu Xin sat down onto the chair and refused stubbornly, “I’m not leaving.”

 Knowing that An Xiaoning would definitely keep her word, Henry said to Hu Xin, “Go home, it’s already so late.”

 “But are you really going to be alright?”

 “Yes, I’ll be fine.”

Staring at Henry solemnly, Hu Xin said, “I’ll definitely save you from her demonic clutches.”

“I don’t need you to interfere with my affairs,” said Henry, who knew her predicament.

“No, believe me, I’ll definitely think of a way to rescue you.” As soon as she said her piece, she glowered at An Xiaoning before leaving the ward.

An Xiaoning was utterly amused by how foolish Hu Xin was.

She took out her cleansing products and proceeded to the washroom.

 Her mobile phone was ringing continuously when she exited, and she hurriedly rushed to answer the call.

 It was No. 5 who had called.

“Sis, there are updates on my side.”

An Xiaoning immediately said, “Hurry and tell me.”

“When I looked through the telescope just now, I saw a gray car pulling over at the entrance of the Yin family mansion, and a man who was wearing a pair of shades and a surgical mask alighted from the car and entered the mansion. He seemed to be visiting the patriarch and only came out forty minutes later. I noted down the license plate number, which Chief Fan checked up on. However, we discovered that the car was rented and the personal details that he had used to rent the car were also falsified. Hence, he’s very suspicious.”

“Okay. I’ll wait and see if the Yin family will call to inform me about this,” said An Xiaoning, who was holding her phone in place with her jaw and her shoulder while taking out the liquor and a glass from the paper bag.

She did not plan to share the liquor with Henry and, thus, had only bought one glass.

“Sis, what’s Mr. Jin’s condition right now?”

“Him? He’s not going to drop dead any time soon.”

“Sis, why would you say that? Hehe, isn’t he going to be mad when he hears you?”

“He’s right beside me now. What’s there to get mad about? He’s not going to be mad. I’m merely praising him for his strong ability to survive.”

She opened the bottle and poured herself a full glass of liquor. She then ended the call and began chugging the entire glass in one go.

The liquor had a high alcohol content and left an uncomfortable, burning sensation in her throat.

 Henry stared at her quietly and a silence filled the room.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, An Xiaoning swirled the glass of liquor in her hand while watching a movie on her mobile phone.

She did not bring her earphones with her. Thus, the sounds of the movie could be heard clearly, though the volume was not too loud.

An Xiaoning was refreshed and energized since she had taken a long afternoon nap. On the other hand, Henry had begun to feel a little sleepy after lying in bed all day.

“I want to wash up, help me to the washroom,” he commanded.

An Xiaoning completely ignored him.

Seeing that she was ignoring him, Henry said, “Didn’t you stay behind to look after me? Is this how you take care of a patient?”

 “I did stay behind to look after you, but whether I want to help you or not all depends on my mood.”

Henry had no other option but to succumb, since she was the only one who could help him right now.

 “In that case, what must I do to make you feel better?”

An Xiaoning turned to face him and said, “Apologize to me for everything you said earlier, including telling me to scram. You also have to promise not to say such things again.”

 “Don’t you think you were going overboard? You insulted and humiliated such a young girl who’s in her early twenties. An Xiaoning, is her life not as precious as yours? If you can tell her to scram, she can do the same to you too.”

“Isn’t she going overboard by harboring designs on someone who doesn’t belong to her? Wasn’t she going overboard by threatening to kill herself if I made her leave the ward? Anyone can tell me to scram, except you. That’s because you’re the only person whose opinion I care about. Although the other you who loves me is now isolated, I still stay firm to my belief that you two are the same person at the end of the day. You’re just not willing to walk out of the trauma.”
