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

This isn't right...

Logically speaking, now that Jiang Che knows she admitted to stabbing him, shouldn't he think she's a scheming woman who's full of lies?

Why is it so calm...?

"Ah Che...aren't you angry with me?"

After much deliberation, Su Qinghe mustered her courage and tentatively asked a question, then waited nervously for Jiang Che's reply.

Jiang Che seemed stunned for a moment, then chuckled softly, "What's it to you?"

"Is it because your phone was dead and you missed the call? Come on, it's no big deal. I'm not petty, why would I hold a grudge over something so trivial?"

Su Qinghe was completely stunned.

He seems... genuinely indifferent?

Or perhaps he simply didn't take the incident of him stabbing him in the back to heart?

This shouldn't be happening...

If a normal person knew that their future spouse was a ruthless person who could kill them, wouldn't their first reaction be fear and to run away?

"Alright, stop overthinking."

Seeing that there was no response from the other end of the phone, Jiang Che immediately guessed that she was lost in thought and interrupted her in time.

"Now that you're awake, you must be hungry, right? What would you like to eat? I'm still outside, I'll bring you some back on my way."

Upon hearing this, Su Qinghe's already confused thoughts became even more chaotic.

She was like a prisoner awaiting a death sentence, but the judge suddenly asked her whether she wanted braised pork or steamed fish for dinner.

Still bewildered, Su Qinghe subconsciously followed Jiang Che's words and replied, "I want to eat...something sweet..."

"Okay, then I'll buy you a Black Forest cake and a hot milk tea."

Jiang Che's car door slammed shut, followed by the sound of wind, and the surrounding noise changed from quiet to noisy.

"Be good and wait at the hospital. I'll be back to be with you in a bit. Bye!"

beep-

The phone hangs up.

Su Qinghe held her phone to her ear, remaining motionless for a long time.

Is that... the end?

There was no outburst of anger, no questioning, not even a harsh word.

Su Qinghe slowly put down her phone, turned to look at Uncle Liu standing to the side, her eyes full of confusion.

She still couldn't quite believe it.

Uncle Liu took the phone and put it in his pocket, glancing at the absent-minded Su Qinghe.

He probably guessed what the girl was thinking, and after a faint smile, he said, "Miss Su, you don't need to worry too much. Do you remember what I just said?"

"Young Master has always been principled since he was a child. Don't be fooled by his lazy and seemingly indifferent appearance; he's actually very clear-headed."

After leaving those words, Uncle Liu turned around and left the ward, leaving Su Qinghe alone sitting on the hospital bed in a daze.

She quickly understood what Uncle Liu meant. He was simply telling her that Jiang Che didn't think there was anything wrong with what she had done today, and he wasn't angry about it, so she didn't need to worry at all.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. If Jiang Che really disliked her, why would he gently ask her if she wanted something delicious to eat?

Thinking of this, Su Qinghe's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

She slumped back against the headboard, staring blankly at the incandescent light on the ceiling, her gaze somewhat unfocused.

Although Uncle Liu, who knew Jiang Che very well, reassured her, Su Qinghe still couldn't control her emotions and couldn't help but overthink.

What if all these pretenses are just an act, and he's actually planning to distance himself from me...?

Fear surged back like a tidal wave, instantly drowning out any fleeting sense of relief.

She was terrified of losing it.

No.

Su Qinghe bit her lower lip, her eyes gradually turning sinister and sickly.

If it really comes to that, then she'll just hide her Ah Che away...

They hid in a place known only to the two of them, where no one would disturb them, and she would always be by his side.

……

On the other side, it borders the city center's commercial street.

Jiang Che put his phone back in his pocket, recalling Su Qinghe's unusual behavior on the phone earlier, and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

Others might not notice anything amiss, but he could immediately sense the trepidation and anxiety in Su Qinghe's tone.

At this point in time, there's only one thing that could make this silly girl so scared and worried.

That is, she was afraid that after finding out that she herself had stabbed him, she would be angry, furious, disappointed in her, and ultimately cruelly abandon her.

What a silly little thing.

He didn't even consider that if he really wanted to argue with her, he would have gone straight back to the hospital from the police station. Why would he wait until now to call her and ask what she wanted to eat?

To him, Su Qinghe's little schemes were as transparent as if they were transparent.

Did they intend to use a self-inflicted injury to tie him up?

Okay, then let's tie it up.

Anyway, he didn't plan to run away.

Jiang Che had just gotten out of the taxi. The reason he had gone to such lengths to come here was because he had guessed that Su Qinghe might be unhappy, so he thought he would come and buy some good food to go back and appease her.

After walking for about five minutes, a dessert shop came into Jiang Che's view, and he immediately quickened his pace and went inside.

"Boss, give me a Black Forest cake, the biggest one of these, please."

Jiang Che pointed to a very exquisitely crafted cake in the display case, then glanced at the egg tarts next to it, "Give me two egg tarts too, they must be fresh out of the oven, right? They look pretty flaky."

The shop assistant cheerfully packed the food while replying, "Don't worry, all our desserts are made fresh daily, and the taste is absolutely top-notch."

After buying the desserts, Jiang Che walked out carrying the packaging bag, and then turned around and went into a well-decorated old-established tea shop next door.

"Do you have any Da Hong Pao tea from the Zheng Yan production area? If so, please bring it out and buy me a pound."

Jiang Che's demand for a pound of purebred Da Hong Pao tea from Zheng Yan teahouse truly surprised the shopkeeper.

Before even meeting, the young man immediately took out his phone, scanned the QR code, and waited to pay. The shop owner didn't dare hesitate and quickly ran out to bring out the tea leaves, afraid that such a big customer might change his mind and not buy them.

"Exactly one jin (500g), that's 5000 yuan in total. Alipay and WeChat are both accepted." The shopkeeper smiled and handed the packaged tea to Jiang Che.

Jiang Che readily paid the bill and then left with the tea.

He doesn't have the habit of drinking tea, but he bought Da Hong Pao tea to thank Liu Zhenguo for his help today.

Moreover, the fact that the SWAT team was able to mobilize so many people and arrive at the scene so quickly today was also due to the use of Liu Zhenguo's name.
