C137 Sinking into the Cold War
"Just you wait!"
Qu Wan Ru's voice was filled with anger as she glared at him. She did not bother to hide her anger at all.
She had never thought that Ruan Xihan, who had endured so many beatings, was actually not a soft persimmon.
After three years of Ruan Xihan's wedding, and after being chased out of Ruan Family, she had heard it clearly from Ruan Si's mouth.
Even though she was the abandoned daughter of the Ruan Family, she was still so arrogant. Qu Wanru felt very surprised.
If she didn't know Ruan Xihan's identity, she would also bully her like this.
"Qu Wanru, I don't owe you anything. At most, you helped me get a phone today, so I'll take it as a favor, but don't forget, a few days ago at the Chinese Table Banquet, in order to let Ruan Sisi into the venue, you also took my favor. Now, we are even as separate as we are now."
Ruan Xihan's voice was a bit chilly and her clear eyes were calm. She did not place Qu Wanru's anger and threat in her eyes at all.
"You!"
Qu Wan Ru was so angry that she couldn't say anything, and could only glare at Ruan Xi Han.
Ruan Xihan waved her phone and a trace of an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She then coldly said, "Thank you."
Qu Wanru was still unable to snatch back Si Jingchen's phone, so she kept this matter in her heart. The resentment in her eyes grew even stronger.
Ruan Xihan looked at the person on the sickbed with deep emotions before putting her phone in her pocket. She then suddenly turned around and walked out of the sickroom.
Si Qianchen, I will definitely give you an explanation!
Outside the ward, when Jin Yanchen saw that Ruan Xihan had walked out, he hurriedly stepped forward, a look of worry appearing in his eyes.
"I... I'm going to the bathroom. "
Ruan Xihan looked into Jin Yanchen's dark and deep eyes. After dodging for a bit, she actually felt a bit guilty. Then, she softly said this, and her heart thumped incessantly.
Jin Yanchen originally wanted to say something, but when his eyes came in contact with her distant face and her body that was unconsciously standing far away, the light in his eyes slightly deepened. After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth, "En, alright."
Ruan Xi Han received an affirmative answer and did not look at Jin Yan Chen again. She slightly nodded and quickly walked in the direction of the washroom.
With urgent steps, Jin Yanchen looked at her slender figure, a faint uneasiness rising in his heart.
After entering the bathroom, Ruan Xihan leaned against the wall and panted heavily as her hands continuously touched her chest.
Taking a deep breath, he took out his mobile phone. As if he had made a great decision, he pressed the power switch.
The screen was a picture from her university days. She was wearing a blue dress, and her bright smile was exceptionally dazzling under the sunlight. Si Jingchen's white shirt and casual pants were also similarly dazzling.
Ruan Xihan's slender hand held onto Jin Yan Chen's arm, looking extremely intimate.
At that time, they were very close friends. At that time, they were innocent and brilliant. At that time, she was still the eldest daughter of Ruan Family.
But now, nothing could go back.
Ruan Xihan looked at the familiar picture and was unable to recover for a long time.
After a long while, she blinked her long eyelashes and wiped away the tears in her eyes. Then, she stretched out her trembling finger and opened her phone's contact book.
Her phone number was still on the list.
Ruan Xihan's heart immediately turned cold and her gaze darkened. After which, she shifted her gaze to the point where time had passed.
Seventy-seven missed calls, the time point was the time when Jin Yanchen left.
Ruan Xihan felt her breathing become stifling, her chest felt short, and her mind went blank.
She didn't dare to believe it, since this matter of Si Jingchen had something to do with Jin Yanchen.
Ruan Xihan's hands were trembling. She turned off the call log and opened the text message.
The only text message was signed by her.
Beads of sweat appeared on Ruan Xihan's forehead before she shakily opened the text message signed with her name.
"Xiao Han, I found some clues from back then. Can we meet again?" I'll be waiting for you at our old place in college. "
Old place?
It was a phrase that was both distant and unfamiliar to Ruan Xihan.
Ruan Xihan whispered. Her eyes were empty as tears filled her eyes.
Three years ago, their favorite place was a hot pot at a snack bar behind the university. At that time, she and Si Jingchen often went to eat together.
However, the past was filled with clouds. Although Ruan Xihan missed it, he didn't miss it.
Ruan Xihan closed her phone and slowly walked to the side of the pool. She turned on the tap and felt the cold water on her face, stimulating her nerves and telling her that everything was real.
Ruan Xihan slowly raised her head. Ice-cold water flowed down her face, and her pale, purplish-white face appeared exceptionally malevolent.
However, Ruan Xihan was not in the mood for this. Her clear eyes seemed especially empty.
After a long while, she slightly calmed her mind and slowly walked out of the washroom. Her footsteps were not as swift and fierce as before.
Jin Yan Chen stared at that thin figure, and his deep eyes deepened.
Ruan Xihan slowly walked in front of Jin Yanchen, her bright red eyes depicting his sharp cheeks.
After a long while, she slowly said, "Shall we go home?"
His voice was low and had a hint of hoarseness to it.
"Alright."
Jin Yan Chen stared at her pale white face, and then softly said that, his eyes filled with a love that couldn't be hidden.
Ruan Xihan nodded slightly before nodding.
Jin Yanchen wanted to grab her shoulder, but he failed. His hand stiffened in midair, and his face turned slightly cold.
Then, with an embarrassed smile, he followed her slowly out of the hospital.

There was not a trace of warmth in the pitch-black room. Ruan Xihan surveyed the spacious and luxurious room. Her clear eyes had become much more complicated at this moment.
Jin Yanchen slowly walked into the room, following by her ear, and then softly said, "Are you hungry? Shall I make you something to eat?"
It was still a low and pampered voice, but it was exceptionally ear-piercing to Ruan Xihan's ears.
No matter what, she could not believe that the person who thought everything through could possibly have done such a thing.
He had protected her from a certain amount of grievance, and had given her hope, but now he had made her despair.
Ruan Xihan could feel that her heart was riddled with thousands of holes, but she didn't know what to do.
If this was really Jin Yanchen's doing, then she wouldn't be able to be so ruthless as to send him to jail.
"You don't need to do it."
A dry smile appeared on the corner of Ruan Xi Han's lips as her pitch-black eyes constantly dodged.
"I've ordered candlelight dinner in the car. Let's have a good rest and relax a bit."
"Mm. Alright."
Jin Yan Chen's eyes flashed, although he had some doubts, but he still replied softly.
The eyes of the elite turned thoughtful.
