She thought that a few inciting words from Ning Shuqian would be all it would take for Wen Haowen to believe her and blame this matter on her—after all, she had experienced Ning Shuqian’s glib tongue. However, unexpectedly, Wen Haowen instead fully insisted that it wasn’t her.

To do such a clean job and also not make Wen Haowen turn his suspicion to her, blaming everything on her—Si Yiyan indeed had his ways of doing things.

Feeling the warmth in her heart, Wen Xinya whipped out the phone gifted by Si Yiyan and drafted a message: “So childish!”

Si Yiyan replied very quickly: “Since he shaved a piece of flesh off my heart, I’ll make him pay for it a hundred times over.”

After reading it, Wen Xinya’s heart tingled slightly as she brushed her fingers gently across the message displayed on the screen. She could almost imagine how Si Yiyan looked like at this moment, his long, gorgeous brows with sharpness, his slender, beautiful eyes as cold as the water in the well in spring—deep, unfathomable, able to destroy all brilliance in the world, and his slightly pursed thin lips with harshness and coolness.

She instinctively replied his message: “This level isn’t just a hundred times over, it’s totally tens of thousands of times over. Wen Haowen cares about his face the most. Doing this to him underhandedly is instead the best revenge.”

“Next time, don’t ever let anyone hurt you.”

Wen Xinya’s heart softened. “Yup. It was an accident this time. I’ll take note the next time.”

Wen Xinya kept the phone. The door of the ward swung open and Chu Jingnan walked in with a bouquet of pure white lilies. “You took leave from school today. I heard that you were hospitalized for a head injury and came specially to see you.”

Wen Xinya frowned slightly. Zhou Tianyu and the gang just came by to see her at noon and he came over in the afternoon. So well-informed—indeed, no wonder he was the president of the student union. “Doesn’t the honorable President Chu know that gifting fresh flowers to patients has to be allowed by the doctor? If the patient is allergic to pollen or reacts adversely to pollen due to her symptoms, your careless act can potentially cause the patient pain and stress. Aren’t you aware of such general knowledge?”

“Sorry. Indeed, I’m not too clear in this area.” Chu Jingnan looked at the bouquet of Oriental lilies in his hands which were indeed aromatic. When he bought them, the florist had said that the Oriental lilies were the most popular among girls. Thus, he had bought them casually. “I’ll go ask the nurse if you can take pollen now.”

Wen Xinya didn’t like the overly rich aroma of lilies, and smelling them in close proximity would cause her to be dizzy and uncomfortable. However, she indeed was not allergic to pollen and the doctor didn’t remind her not to smell flowers either—she was merely poking him intentionally. Naturally, she did not have anything to say with him being serious like this.

Wen Xinya couldn’t help but recall that in her previous lifetime, Chu Jingnan would also give her Oriental lilies at times. At that time, although she didn’t like Oriental lilies herself, she still placed the flowers into a vase and cared for them with a heart full of joy.

To stoop to compromise like this for the person that she liked—a chill ran over Wen Xinya’s heart.

At this point, Chu Jingnan came back with the flowers. “I’ve asked the doctor. He said that you’re not allergic to pollen and that placing some flowers in the ward can spark joy in patients.”

Wen Xinya frowned slightly and said, “I don’t like the smell of Oriental lilies. Trouble you to leave the ward with your flowers immediately.”

Chu Jingnan did not take her coldness to heart but also couldn’t tell the truthfulness of her words. “What flowers do you like then? I’ll go get some for you now.”

Wen Xinya was totally in awe of Chu Jingnan’s thick skin. “The honorable President Chu, I remember that it’s school hours now. As the president of the student union, you’ve instead ran off to the hospital—aren’t you afraid of being a bad influence in the Institute?”
