In fact, Shi Xiao originally thought that the best way for these two women to get along was that they didn't know each other's existence before Shi Xiao settled Liu Lan.

This arrangement means that Shi Xiao has repaid Liu Lan for saving his life. Liu Lan can rely on herself and no longer needs to rely on Shi Xiao to survive.

But now, Shi Xiao explained frankly, "She is the woman I brought back from Africa. She saved my life in Africa."

Yuan Shu nodded slightly. She thought Shi Xiao would end the topic, but she didn't expect Shi Xiao to be so frank.

But Yuan Shu didn't care, and his tone became even colder, "Of course you have to take good care of her. It would be inconvenient for me to go."

Shi Xiao looked straight into Yuan Shu's cold eyes. "It is at times like this that you should show up. Shouldn't we help each other? Don't you have an obligation to help me deal with some unnecessary emotional disputes?"

Shi Xiao's words left Yuan Shu speechless. Shi Xiao was not wrong. As his wife, she naturally had to help him deal with some unnecessary emotional disputes. However, the two of them were only in a partnership, not a real couple. The relationship between them should also be regarded as an unnecessary emotional dispute!

Just when Yuan Shu was stunned, Shi Xiao had already stepped forward, took the book from Yuan Shu's hand, put it back on the rocking chair, then pulled Yuan Shu's arm and made her stand up.

Yuan Shu wanted to struggle but was forced to stand up. In this situation, it would be inappropriate for her to refuse.

Yuan Shu sighed and finally compromised, "I'll go with you after I change my clothes."

Shi Xiao nodded, turned and walked out of the room, closing the door for Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was speechless by his sudden reasoning. She was considered to be open-minded, so how could she win against him?

The most important thing is that after this person achieved his goal, he actually showed a hint of gentleness, making Yuan Shu feel that all his previous struggles were in vain!

Yuan Shu changed into her favorite casual clothes. She didn’t look like a wife who was going to pose to meet her love rival. She looked too casual no matter how you looked at her!

Shi Xiao looked at her for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking: "Do you want to wear this dress?"

Shi Xiao was dressed formally, wearing a windbreaker, a light-colored shirt, and dark-colored suit pants. He was very tall, and this outfit made him look even taller and more handsome.

Yuan Shu was curious, "Is there a problem?"

"No, there isn't."

Shi Xiao suddenly felt that the jealous and bad-tempered Yuan Shu in the past was not bad, at least much better than the current Yuan Shu who doesn’t care about relationships at all!

The extended black Lincoln stopped at the entrance of the private hospital. After the door opened, Shi Xiao got out of the car and considerately helped Yuan Shu block the top of the door to prevent her from hitting her head.

"Please get out of the car, Ms. Yuan."

His address made Yuan Shu frown, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she slowed down half a step and followed Shi Xiao to the ward.

At this time, the doctor was examining Liu Lan. She had regained consciousness, but her face was a little pale. She obediently cooperated with the doctor's instructions with her eyes and mouth open.

After the examination, the doctor put away the stethoscope and told Zhao Cheng: "The patient is fine, she just didn't eat breakfast and didn't eat much for lunch. Her blood sugar was low, and the weather was hot, so she fainted. Let's give her some glucose first, and then observe her after the blood transfusion. If she's fine, she can go home."

Zhao Cheng wrote it down, and then the nurse began to tie Liu Lan's arm with a rubber tube to clear the blood vessels, inserted a needle to adjust the flow rate of the liquid, and began to infuse glucose.

When the doctor and the nurse walked out of the ward, they met Shi Xiao and Yuan Shu.

This private hospital was invested by the Shi Group. This doctor happened to be the one who examined Shi Lu before, so he knew both of them. When he saw them, he immediately greeted them, "Young Master, Young Madam."

After the two nodded, they left quickly.

As soon as Shi Xiao and Yuan Shu entered the ward, they saw Liu Lan leaning against the pillow, staring blankly at the white wall.

Her face and lips were pale, and she was obviously not in good health.

Liu Lan also saw Shi Xiao. She opened her mouth to speak, but nothing came out. Her eyes were full of tears and she looked pitiful, just like a little deer.

Shi Xiao took two steps forward and asked, "What happened?"

After Zhao Cheng repeated the doctor's words, Shi Xiao frowned and looked at Liu Lan, with a hint of blame and worry in his eyes, "Why don't you eat well?"

Liu Lan bit her lower lip and gestured, "I'm unfamiliar with the environment and haven't adapted yet, so I don't have much appetite."

Shi Xiao understood what she meant, and his eyes were filled with heartache. No matter how cruel a man was, his heart would ache when he saw such a fragile woman, especially since she had saved his life.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy lately and can't come to see you."

Although Shi Xiao said this, his tone was very calm.

Yuan Shu was speechless after hearing this. In this situation, it would be a waste for him to stay here. If the two of them were in a relationship, they could improve their relationship. Wouldn't he be just a light bulb here?

While Yuan Shu was still in a daze, Shi Xiao suddenly turned his body slightly, exposing Yuan Shu in front of Liu Lan.

Liu Lan was obviously stunned, staring at Yuan Shu blankly, and after a moment she gestured and asked, "Who are you?"

Shi Xiao smiled, gently put his arm around Yuan Shu's waist, and pulled her closer to him, "This is my wife, Yuan Shu."

wife……?

Liu Lan's expression was somewhat hurt, and she obviously could not accept this result.

Liu Lan gestured again in front of Yuan Shu, "You never mentioned that you have a wife."

This message was obviously sent to Yuan Shu. Liu Lan wanted to see her reaction and kept her eyes on Yuan Shu.

After Liu Lan expressed herself clearly with gestures, she put down her hands and tightly grasped the blanket in front of her chest, as if waiting for an explanation, her eyes full of hostility.

Shi Xiao didn't say anything. Yuan Shu looked at her with some confusion and said awkwardly, "Sorry, I don't understand sign language, so I can't communicate with you."

Liu Lan's hands were holding the quilt, her face turned pale, as if she had been wronged.

She said this on purpose just to see Yuan Shu jealous and make Shi Xiao impatient with her. She wanted to pretend that she had only asked this question subconsciously and had not deliberately caused discord, but she did not expect Yuan Shu to reveal her intentions. For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Perhaps Zhao Cheng didn't want to see Liu Lan in trouble, so he wanted to help and translated the sign language to Yuan Shu.

"She..." Zhao Cheng just said this when he realized that it seemed inappropriate to say this in front of Yuan Shu, so he quickly shut up and swallowed his words.

It doesn't matter if this matter is not resolved!

Yuan Shu finally couldn't help it. She had seen many women in the palace who pretended to be weak and harmless. She used to be a frequent visitor to the palace and often chatted with the queen in the palace. There were many people who pretended to be better than Liu Lan. It was really boring to see her causing trouble for herself here.

So Yuan Shu said, "I'm a little thirsty. Go downstairs and buy a bottle of water. I'll wait for you in the car."

After saying that, Yuan Shu immediately broke free from Shi Xiao's hand around her waist, turned around and left the ward.

Liu Lan felt insulted. Yuan Shu obviously didn't take her seriously. She even dressed so casually when meeting her love rival, which meant that she didn't think Liu Lan would pose any threat to her at all.

Liu Lan gritted her teeth, tears instantly filled her eyes, and then she began to act pitiful, using gestures to say to Shi Xiao: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I just overstepped my bounds."
