Chapter 30: Poor Thing

other back and forth. Glancing at Lu Mingchu's men standing around, doing nothing, he understood—this was a one-on-one duel between two bosses. Both sides didn't need their subordinates to join in a b...Lu Chen's skills were also very good.

With a quick dodge, he avoided the punch.

Shen Xiujin and Lu Chen, after a punch each, both retreated simultaneously, occupying opposite sides, and glanced at each other.

Shen Xiujin's face was as cold as ice, his eyes flashed coldly. How could he not see through it Lu Chen didn't want to really fight him otherwise, he wouldn't dodge his punch... Lu Chen wasn't a person who would back down from a challenge. He would take the enemy's fist instead of dodging.

These are two completely different ways of dealing with the world.

Lu Chen was obviously the former.

"Keep away from her." With that, Shen Xiujin held the person in his arms and prepared to leave.

As the person reached the door, a voice came from behind, "Seeing you as my most valued adversary, I'll offer you some advice: clarify your feelings sooner rather than later. Don't end up like me, regretting it all in the end."

Lu Chen blinked, masking the flicker of sadness in his eyes.

At the door, the man's face was expressionless: "My business is none of your concern."

Lu Chen wasn't a nosy person and didn't want to say more. Glancing at the woman out of the corner of his eye, his heart softened: "Shen Xiu Jin, you're in love with her."

Shen Xiujian couldn't help but laugh.

A slight smile curved his lips, and he lowered his eyes to gaze at the woman in his arms… Had he fallen for her

Lu Chen also saw Shen Xiuqin's dismissive attitude. He chuckled softly... What time did he become a saint, reminding his opponent in such a kind way not to make mistakes in love

"Listen, I'll say this one last time as a friendly warning: don't ever bring up 'locking her away' in front of her again."

Shen Xiuqin's long legs paused as he stepped out the door. The next second, his slender legs strode towards the elevator.

Lu Chen adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and patted down his suit jacket, following Shen Xiu Jin calmly out of the private room.

……

With a ding, the elevator stopped at the 28th floor.

As soon as the door opened, Shen Xiuqin swiftly placed the woman in his arms onto the soft bed in the bedroom. He then took out his phone and dialed a number: "Come to Donghuang, 28th floor, there's a woman unconscious."

After getting his point across succinctly, he ended the call.

On the other end of the phone, Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment, then his face lit up with understanding: “A woman”

That fellow Shen Xiujin went to the 28th floor with a woman again

It's not that he's anxious to save someone, but rather eager to watch a good show. Bai Yu walked out of his office in a flurry, pulling off his white coat and grabbing his jacket and car keys before rushing out.

"Doctor Bai, you're in such a hurry, where are you going"

"Go see the woman."

"...."

Bai Yu raced towards the parking lot, calling Xi Chen with a malicious grin: "There's a good show going down, coming or not"

"I'm busy." The other party refused without hesitation.

Shen Xiuqin's good play.

"Where is it" After vehemently refusing just a moment ago, she immediately changed her tune upon hearing that it was Shen Xiujin.

Bai Yu xing smirked, "Donghuang, 28th floor."

"Gosh! What good show is there He won't let anyone go up to the 28th floor. I'm not going."

"There's a woman unconscious on the 28th floor."

"Just a moment, I'm coming!"

Both were so excited that their parents would probably be speechless if they saw them.

They wouldn't be so enthusiastic even if you told them to go collect their year-end bonuses.

Donghuang, 28th floor

A man stood by the bedside, his hands in his pockets, staring down at the woman in bed.

He knew, this woman's face was very small, not even the size of his palm.

But...when did this face, become so gaunt

Sunken eyes, pale complexion, chapped and dry lips... Where did the flamboyant Jian Tong, like a red rose, go

Looking at the woman in bed... Poor thing, that phrase kept popping into my mind.

How could he possibly fall in love with such a pathetic, lowly worm

He Shen Xiujin, how could he possibly fall in love with such a woman

A smirk played at the corner of his lips. The idea didn't even have time to settle in his mind before he dismissed it.

It didn't seem to bother him.

The phone vibrated, and as I pressed the answer button, Bai Yu Xing's voice came through.

"Come up here," he said nonchalantly into the phone, hung up, and walked to the elevator door, pressing a button.

This elevator can go directly to the 28th floor where he is, but there's no card reader. Bai Yu needs to press the button at the elevator entrance to enter.

Ding!

The elevator doors opened, and Shen Xiujing wasn't surprised to find that Bai Yu was not the only one in the elevator.

Come in.

Giving a glance at the two people in the elevator, Shen Xiujing didn't stop Xi Chen.

"Where are the women"

Xi Chen's eyes glowed blue, and he scanned his surroundings with his laser vision, searching for a target.

"This is the Dong Huang, if you want to find a woman, there are plenty downstairs. Tell Su Meng what kind of woman you want, and she'll get her for you."

Shen Xiujin said leisurely.

"Um..."

Bai Yu xing gave Xi Chen a "Are you an idiot" look.

“Ahem… Shen Xiujin, the woman you said fainted, wouldn’t it be… her” Xi Chen and Bai Yu walked behind Shen Xiujin and entered the bedroom. At a glance, they saw a woman lying quietly on the bed, and upon closer inspection... wasn't that Jian Tong who had been thrown into prison by Shen Xiujin

His jaw almost dropped!

Bai Yu walked to the bed and saw someone lying there. His eyes flickered with a strange emotion, but unlike Xi Chen, he didn't make any loud exclamations.

But similarly, like Xi Chen, he was taken aback the moment he saw her.

"Let her have a look. It doesn't matter."

Beside him, a man's low voice spoke softly.

Bai Yu walked over with doubts in his heart and hurriedly crouched down to check Jian Tong.

Try breathing, feel your pulse, Bai Yu walked over and unbuttoned the buttons in front of Jian Tong's chest...

A hand shot out from the shadows, grabbing his wrist with lightning speed, while a wary voice called out:

"What are you doing!"

“……," Bai Yu walked along, following the hand that was clutching his wrist, and saw a pair of cold eyes staring at him. They were looking at him with an icy chill, making Bai Yu, who had grown up with this friend since childhood, couldn't help but tremble:

"Ahem... ahem... I'm checking her heart and lung rate."

"If you're going to check her, why are you unbuttoning her clothes"

" "..." Bai Yu's mind was filled with black lines, Big brother! How am I supposed to listen to her heartbeat if you don't unbutton her shirt"

"I have to listen to her chest. Traditional Chinese medicine has 'look, listen, ask, and touch', Western medicine does too!"

Bai Yu xing would have loved to give Shen Xiu jin a withering look!

Only after he explained did Shen Xiujin let go of his hand. Just as he was about to reach out and continue what they had been doing, undoing the buttons on his shirt,

... was abruptly stopped by a forceful hand: "I'll do it."

Bai Yu xing : “...”

Xi Chen: "..."

They looked at each other, both surprised by what they saw in each other's eyes.

"Can we do this" Shen Xiujin suddenly asked Bai Yuxing.

Bai Yu was startled and quickly said, "Okay, okay, okay."

Looking at the gap ripped open, barely thicker than a thumb... I have to do this, even if it kills me.

"It's nothing, just a bit too excited." Bai Yuxing jokingly said after checking:

"I said, Shen Xiujin, why do I feel like you're quite special to Jian Tong"nd far as possible. Escape what makes you unable to face it. I want to ask you, is it him that you can't face, or is it your own heart"Don't worry. This time, Shen Xiujin won't bother you again, not a...
