Regretful Beijing Marriage

"Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Ji Shu was taken aback and quickly grabbed Jiang Yining's hand to ask her more questions.

"Ningning, did something happen?"

Jiang Yining did not hide anything and briefly recounted what had happened yesterday.

"I asked Qin Yi, but he refused to talk about it. I feel that there is an answer I want to know behind this matter."

Ji Shu's expression suddenly turned serious, and he said in a deep voice.

"Ningning, I can only tell you that the situation is worse than you think."

"Now, the entire underground world is full of people offering bounties for Fu Huaiyan's life."

"I don't know who he offended, but they clearly want to kill him."

She paused, then took a deep breath.

"Ningning, you probably don't know that Fu Huaiyan has been living on the edge of a knife these days."

"He's been in quite a few troubles lately, but they've all been suppressed."

"Yesterday's car accident must have been the most serious injury he's suffered recently."

Jiang Yining felt a throbbing, throbbing, and painful sensation in her temples.

Countless doubts and details piled up in my mind.

They can be vaguely connected.

But whenever she tried to delve deeper, a dull ache would strike her head.

Jiang Yining exhaled a breath of turbid air, suppressing the turmoil in her heart, and looked up at Ji Shu.

"So you don't know why he's being hunted down?"

Ji Shu shook her head helplessly.

"Yes, I think only he knows the truth."

"Last time, I only found out that someone had put a large reward on his life, but I couldn't find any clues as to who he had offended."

"Besides, Fu Huaiyan has made too many enemies over the years, and there are countless people who want him dead."

Jiang Yining lowered her eyes, and a bold guess suddenly popped into her mind.

It seems that Fu Huaiyan being hunted down happened when he himself was being targeted.

At that time, Fu Huaiyan was also unusual, repeatedly telling her not to investigate further.

Looking back now, it all seems eerie.

Perhaps this whole thing was related to me from the very beginning.

Fu Huaiyan did it all for her sake...

"Ningning? What's wrong? Why are you spacing out? Did you think of something?"

Jiang Yining came to her senses.

"What's wrong? I've called you several times."

Ji Shu looked at her with concern.

Jiang Yining concealed the emotions in her eyes and shook her head.

"fine."

"Shushu, I have to go now."

"Please keep a close eye on Fu Huaiyan's situation for me, and let me know immediately if there's any news at all."

Seeing her solemn expression, Ji Shu immediately nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, I'll let you know as soon as there's any movement on my end. You should also take care of yourself."

After saying goodbye to Ji Shu, Jiang Yining went straight to the hospital.

On the way, she repeatedly dialed Fu Huaiyan's number.

No one answered the phone.

She then tried to contact Qin Yi, but the call was always busy.

This intensified her unease.

She has too many things to figure out.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Jiang Yining asked the medical staff for directions and accurately located the floor where Fu Huaiyan's VIP ward was located.

As soon as I reached the door of the ward, I heard arguing coming from inside.

Xie Xingzhou looked sullen and disappointed.

"Fine, Fu Huaiyan, I'm not going to bother with you anymore!"

"If you're willing to risk your life for that woman, what am I, as your brother, supposed to do?"

After saying that, Xie Xingzhou opened the door.

They ran right into Jiang Yining walking towards them.

His expression immediately changed drastically, and the anger in his eyes intensified.

"How dare you come here?"

Ignoring his hostility, Jiang Yining asked.

"What happened to him? How badly is he injured?"

Xie Xingzhou scoffed, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

"What are you pretending to be innocent for? You were at the scene of yesterday's car accident!"

"If it weren't for you..."

"Thank you, Xingzhou!"

Fu Huaiyan's hoarse voice came through, weak in tone but with an undeniable authority.

He spoke with a few suppressed coughs, his voice growing increasingly deep.

"I'm fine, you can go back now."

Xie Xingzhou was speechless with frustration and gritted his teeth in anger.

"Fine, I won't tell!"

"You're so protective, I can't say a word!"

Jiang Yining ignored him and stepped into the ward.

Inside the ward, Lu Yunshen stood by the bedside, his brow furrowed with anxiety.

"You should rest and recuperate; don't force yourself to work."

"If you continue to suffer from these injuries, you'll really be beyond saving."

Fu Huaiyan responded calmly, "I understand. You can go back now."

Lu Yunshen was utterly helpless.

Turning around, she caught a glimpse of Jiang Yining entering, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

He hesitated, then finally stopped talking and prepared to leave.

"Lu Yunshen".

Jiang Yining called out to him in time, her gaze falling on Fu Huaiyan.

"How bad is his injury? Is it serious?"

Lu Yun Shen turned his head to the side, deliberately exaggerating.

"He looks fine, doesn't he? Knife wounds, burns, whip marks, old wounds haven't healed and new ones keep appearing."

"It's a miracle that someone who survived such a serious car accident is still alive."

"You know, all those times he was fatally wounded were because of..."

"Lu Yunshen".

Fu Huaiyan suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over them with a deep intensity.

Lu Yunshen clicked his tongue and shrugged helplessly.

"Fine, I won't say anything more, I'm leaving."

Before leaving, he glanced at Jiang Yining and whispered some words of advice.

"Since you're here, please take good care of him. His leg was severely damaged in the car accident, making it difficult for him to move around, and he can't get it wet."

"He's covered in injuries and can't do it himself, could you help him clean up and take care of him?"

The ward door closed.

The room fell into a deathly silence.

Fu Huaiyan leaned quietly against the headboard, his face pale and bloodless.

He looked up at Jiang Yining, his thin lips parted slightly, but before he could say anything, Jiang Yining had already walked into the restroom.

Immediately afterwards, she came out carrying a basin of warm water and a clean towel.

Without saying anything more, she bent down to unbutton Fu Huaiyan's clothes.

The moment my fingertips touched the fabric, my wrist was gripped by a warm, large hand.

Fu Huaiyan's strength was not great.

His deep black eyes were fixed on Jiang Yining's eyes, his gaze both tender and dark.

Ambiguity seems to be spreading.

"You don't need to do these things, there are caregivers available."

Jiang Yining raised her eyes and met Fu Huaiyan's gaze calmly.

"Where is the caregiver? Don't you always let strangers near you?"

Fu Huaiyan was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting her to say that.

Taking advantage of his momentary lapse in concentration, Jiang Yining broke free from his grasp and turned him over.

He deftly removed his hospital gown.

The man's broad back was on full display.

The crisscrossing scars on his back were shocking to behold.

The old whip marks were of varying depths, while newer wounds had not yet completely faded.

The car accident left bloody marks, gruesome and glaring.

It's so gripping it makes your heart race.

"What are you looking at?"

Fu Huaiyan's hoarse voice rang out again.

Jiang Yining pulled herself out of her thoughts, suppressed the complex emotions surging in her heart, and carefully wiped his back.

During the process, no one spoke again.

After wiping her upper body, she bent down, her fingertips landing on Fu Huaiyan's waistband.

"Lift your hips, let me wipe your lower body for you."
