You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

"Don't worry, young master, everything has been arranged."

Jiang Che gave a faint "hmm" and continued walking towards the hospital gate, his eyes slowly scanning the surroundings. "How exactly is the defense deployed?"

Even though he trusted Uncle Liu, it was still a matter concerning Su Qinghe, and he would feel uneasy if he didn't ask more questions.

Uncle Liu slowly explained, "Young Master, I've arranged two female bodyguards at the nurses' station. They've disguised themselves as nurses and are responsible for monitoring people coming and going. They'll also check on Miss Su's room every now and then to ensure her safety and the stability of her condition."

"In addition, there is an empty ward next to Miss Su's, and I have also arranged for our people to stay there, posing as patients and their families."

"The cleaning staff on this floor have also been replaced by our own people."

Uncle Liu spoke at a measured pace, his words revealing an air of absolute confidence: "These fifteen floors are completely under our control, inside and out. Absolutely no one can harm Miss Su even a hair on her head."

Seemingly infected by Uncle Liu's confident aura, Jiang Che felt much more at ease after listening to him.

He smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Liu. I'll have my dad give you a bigger bonus later."

"Young master, you're too kind. It's just my duty."

Uncle Liu paused for a moment, seemingly hesitant, but finally couldn't help asking, "But young master, why are you making such a big fuss all of a sudden? Have you heard something?"

Jiang Che had just reached the roadside when he asked Uncle Liu to wait for him. He then hailed a taxi.

After opening the car door and getting in, Jiang Che gave the address of his neighborhood before continuing to answer Uncle Liu's question: "There's no definite news either."

He leaned back in the back seat, looking tired, and rubbed his throbbing temples with one hand, glancing at the receding street scene outside the window.

"Wang Kai told me today that Zhang Yang and Lin Wanwan have suddenly stopped talking."

"Zhang Yang is the kind of person who holds grudges and seeks revenge, and Lin Wanwan is even more of a person who won't do anything without personal gain."

"Being scolded and still not making a move is clearly unusual and something must be amiss."

Uncle Liu was slightly surprised. After a moment of stunned silence, he couldn't help but chuckle twice. "Young Master is still so perceptive. If they come after me, I really won't bother with them."

"Well, if they're really just after me, I naturally won't bother with them."

Jiang Che paused here, and when he spoke again, his tone suddenly turned cold, "But what I'm afraid of is that they'll resort to desperate measures and target Qinghe."

"Qinghe just had eye surgery, and I can't be by her side 24/7. She's at her most vulnerable right now, and I can't afford to take that risk."

"Even if I'm overthinking it, wasting some manpower and resources is fine, it's better than regretting it if something really happens."

"Understood, young master."

Since this concerned Su Qinghe, the future mistress of the Jiang family, Uncle Liu's attitude became much more serious. He solemnly promised, "Rest assured, no matter who dares to lay a hand on Miss Su, I will make sure they never return."

"Yes, thank you for your trouble, Uncle Liu. You should get some rest too. Please contact me if anything happens."

……

Ten minutes ago.

Inside an inconspicuous black van parked by the roadside, a pair of eyes quietly shifted away from the window.

The van then sped off, following closely behind Jiang Che's taxi like a shadow.

Meanwhile, inside the car, Huang Mao, who had just witnessed Jiang Che get into a taxi and leave, immediately took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Brother Yang, that kid's gone."

"Are you sure you're leaving?"

A boastful voice came from the other end of the phone, initially excited, but then becoming cautious, "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

"I'm sure. I saw him get into the taxi with my own eyes, and I even wrote down the license plate number," the blond-haired man said with absolute certainty.

"And I even had someone follow him for a while, and it was definitely heading in the direction of his house."

"Alright, you take the brothers back to the inpatient building and keep watch. Without my instructions, no one should make any rash moves."

After giving this instruction, Zhang Yang hung up the phone, and then a sinister smile crept across his face.

He tossed his phone onto the coffee table, picked up his wine glass, and took a big gulp.

Lin Wanwan was sitting next to him touching up her makeup when she saw Zhang Yang's behavior and couldn't help but frown.

"What happened? Jiang Che left?"

"I'm gone."

Zhang Yang wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with malice. "Let's see who can protect that blind man this time."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Lin Wanwan slammed the powder compact shut, her expression becoming impatient as she urged Zhang Yang, "Hurry up and get your people to do it."

"I'll get it done tonight, and I'll post the video on the school forum and social media platforms first thing tomorrow morning."

"I've already thought of the title: 'Pure school beauty's private life is chaotic, she has an affair with a strange man in the hospital room.'"

"I'll see then whether Jiang Che chooses that used woman or me."

Lin Wanwan became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she could already see Su Qinghe's reputation ruined and Jiang Che kneeling in front of her begging for forgiveness.

But Zhang Yang didn't respond after listening to what Lin Wanwan said.

He calmly lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and said, "What's the rush?"

Zhang Yang exhaled a smoke ring, staring at the flickering cigarette butt. "Don't you think things are going a little too smoothly?"

"Smoothly?"

Lin Wanwan was taken aback for a moment. "Isn't it good if things go smoothly? Do you only feel happy when something goes wrong?"

That's not what I meant.

Zhang Yang shook his head. He admitted that his IQ wasn't very high, but that didn't mean he was brainless.

If they weren't shrewd enough, they would have been played to death in this circle of rich kids long ago, and they wouldn't be living such a carefree and happy life today.

"Think about it carefully yourself. How deep is Jiang Che's mind, and how ruthless can he be?"

Zhang Yang recalled the scene of being humiliated by Jiang Che on the volleyball court that day, as well as his wrist which had not yet fully recovered, and the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably.

He gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with a sinister and malicious glint. "Would someone like that really be so careless as to leave Su Qinghe alone in the hospital?"

"Isn't he afraid of our retaliation?"

Lin Wanwan hadn't thought much about it at first, but after hearing what he said, she felt that it made sense, and she hesitated for a moment.

"So...you mean he had a backup plan?"

"It's hard to say."

Zhang Yang flicked his cigarette ash and leaned back on the sofa. "My men just said that before Jiang Che left the hospital, he seemed to stop at the door for a while, as if he was making a phone call."

"Who did they call? What did they say? We have no idea."

"What if this is a trap?"

"What if he has police or bodyguards lying in ambush in the ward? If our people rush in, wouldn't we be walking right into his line of fire?"
