The atmosphere in the room was a little tense. Su Su had just been taken out, and before Ji Yan could calm down, she hurried to Fu Jingyan. Her eyes fell on the red and swollen area on the man's back, and her eyes were full of worry.

"Ayan, how are you? Does it hurt?" Ji Yan asked softly. Her hand gently touched Fu Jingyan's back, but he slightly avoided it.

Fu Jingyan gritted his teeth to endure the pain, trying to make his voice sound calm: "It's okay, just a minor injury."

Ji Yan was worried. She knew that although such injuries seemed minor, they could easily lead to more serious consequences if not handled properly. She looked up at Zheng Haoqian with a hint of pleading in her eyes: "Ah Qian, can you find some medicine to treat it?"

Zheng Haoqian nodded, took a look at Fu Jingyan's injuries, frowned and said, "I'll go get the medicine first, you take him to the next room to deal with it."

Ji Yan nodded gratefully, then carefully helped Fu Jingyan to stand up, and the two walked towards the next room together.

There was a simple bed in the room. Ji Yan helped Fu Jingyan sit down, then gently lifted his clothes to reveal the red and swollen skin. She looked at the shocking scars and felt a pain in her heart.

"Bear with it, I'll give you a cold compress first." Ji Yan said, taking out a few ice cubes from the refrigerator next to her, wrapping them in a towel, and gently applying them to Fu Jingyan's back.

Fu Jingyan's body trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just clenched his teeth tightly, trying not to make any sound.

Ji Yan felt even sadder when she saw him enduring the pain. She knew Fu Jingyan was a strong man, but at this moment he seemed so fragile. She couldn't help but think of every little thing since they met, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

"Ayan, I'm sorry..." Ji Yan whispered, her voice trembling a little, "It's all my fault. I made you so badly injured."

Hearing this, Fu Jingyan looked up at Ji Yan, with a gentle light in his eyes: "Silly girl, how can I blame you? I am willing to do this."

Just then, Zheng Haoqian came in with medicine. He saw Ji Yan applying cold compress to Fu Jingyan, so he walked over and took the ice from her hand: "Let me do it, you go and rest first."

Ji Yan shook her head: "I'm not tired, I want to see him get better."

Zheng Haoqian sighed helplessly and stopped insisting. He opened the medicine box, took out some ointment and gauze, and began to treat Fu Jingyan's wound.

Under Zheng Haoqian's careful treatment, Fu Jingyan's wounds gradually eased. Ji Yan stayed by his side all the time, without leaving even a step.

Ji Yan, who was originally angry about what happened that night, had calmed down when Fu Jingyan sacrificed himself to block the scalding tea for her.

……

"Where is that woman?" Zheng Haoqian asked with a frown, holding the medicine bottle in his hand.

"She has been sent back to the Su family." Lu Nanxu, a calm and composed man, answered softly.

"Oh! That depends on what the Su family does. However, Axu, aren't you afraid that their family will not support your next election if you do this?" Helian Minxiao, a handsome man, curled his lips and sneered, his blue eyes full of contempt.

"The Su family has gradually declined. Now the head of the Su family is eager to find someone who can save the Su family. I believe that no one in the Su family will have trouble finding someone at this critical juncture." Lu Nanxu replied lightly, as if everything was under his control.

At this time, Fu Jingyan and Ji Yan walked out of another room. Lu Nanxu held the medicine bottle in his hand, with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face. He looked at Ji Yan and asked softly, "Yan Yan, are you okay?"

Ji Yan shook her head and responded with a smile, "I'm fine, thank you." There was a firmness and strength in her eyes, as if she was accustomed to facing all kinds of difficulties.

However, Lu Nanxu walked up to the two of them, bowed deeply, and apologized sincerely: "I'm sorry, Yanyan, I shouldn't have let that woman make trouble in front of you." His voice was full of guilt and regret, making people feel his inner struggle and pain.

Ji Yan looked at Lu Nanxu, and she couldn't help but feel inexplicably moved. She knew that this man had been silently protecting her, even though he always looked stern. She said softly, "I'm fine, really, you don't have to apologize."

Fu Jingyan looked at the two of them, and an inexplicable sadness surged in his heart. He knew that the relationship between Ji Yan and Lu Nanxu was much more complicated than he had imagined. He gently held Ji Yan's hand, trying to give her some strength.

"Okay, let's go back." Ji Yan said softly, looking at the passing scenery outside the window. There was a hint of fatigue and confusion in her voice, as if she was looking for some kind of answer.

On the way back, Ji Yan remained silent. Her mind kept recalling what had just happened and Lu Nanxu and Fu Jingyan's attitude towards her. She didn't know how she should face these two men, nor did she know how their relationship would develop.

Lu Nanxu and Fu Jingyan sat in the back seat, their eyes met, as if conveying some kind of message. They all knew that Ji Yan was the key person between them, and they had to find a way to resolve her doubts and uneasiness.

"Axu, what do you think we should do?" Fu Jingyan asked softly.

"I don't know." Lu Nanxu shook his head, "But I know that we don't want to lose her."

Xin Mujing tugged at his tie irritably, his brows furrowed: "But baby doesn't want to have anything to do with us..." His voice was full of helplessness and frustration.

Helian Minxiao pushed his glasses, a gloomy light flashing in his blue eyes: "In fact, we really have no relationship... We just use our power to force Yanyan to stay with us." His words were like a sharp knife, piercing everyone's heart.

Zheng Haoqian sighed softly, his tone revealing a bit of heaviness: "If you really like her, then take action... If it really doesn't work, find a way to tie her to our side, but don't force her."

When Lu Nanxu heard this, a gleam flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking about Zheng Haoqian's words. Fu Jingyan smiled smugly and said with a beaming face: "Then you guys think about it slowly, I'll go and claim my benefits first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Nanxu frowned and said, "Yanyan is so tired today, do you think she will be willing?" There was a strong sourness in his tone, and he was obviously dissatisfied with Fu Jingyan's complacency.

Fu Jingyan shrugged nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter if Yanyan doesn't want to, at least I can hug her to sleep."

Lu Nanxu was so angry at his words that his face turned blue. He replied unhappily: "You can get out now!"

Fu Jingyan smiled, stood up and left the room, leaving the others in silence, each thinking about their own ideas and future actions.

As the night deepened, Ji Yan's door gently opened. Fu Jingyan walked in and saw Ji Yan lying on the bed, her eyes closed tiredly. He gently walked to the bedside, sat down, and stared at Ji Yan's sleeping face.

He reached out and gently stroked Ji Yan's hair, his heart full of tenderness. He knew that Ji Yan was their baby, the only one in their hearts. No matter what difficulties and challenges they would face in the future, he would firmly guard her and prevent her from getting hurt.

"Good night, my baby." Fu Jingyan said softly, then lay down gently and held Ji Yan in his arms. He closed his eyes, feeling Ji Yan's breath and body temperature, his heart filled with satisfaction and happiness.
