CHAPTER 108: CHAPTER 108: WE WON’T BE APART

After a series of tests, the doctor concluded that the patient has a weak constitution, and the symptoms of dizziness and vomiting are due to acclimatization, so it would be best to rest quietly.

Fu Yinli looked deeply at the person lying on the hospital bed and said to her, "After the IV drip, come back to England with me."

His tone was forceful, leaving her no room for negotiation.

Su Lingzhi asked him, "Aren’t you here for work?"

"I came to see you."

For a moment, Su Lingzhi found it emotionally overwhelming.

There’s another show tomorrow, but in her current state, she couldn’t go, and she didn’t want Mommy to worry, so she finally chose to go back with him.

"Did Shao Ming tell you about what happened last night?"

"What happened?" Fu Yinli asked, puzzled.

Su Lingzhi was momentarily speechless.

It seemed he didn’t know about someone ringing her doorbell late last night.

This...

Seeing his gaze fixed on her, she feared he might have guessed something.

Su Lingzhi didn’t want him to worry about this matter, so she chose to hide it, weakly saying, "It’s just that I missed you last night, and Shao Ming found out. I thought he would tell you."

She was quite adept at saying such sweet words, without any flaw.

The light in Fu Yinli’s eyes softened a bit, seemingly not suspecting anything, and he said deeply, "If you miss me, just tell me directly, there’s no need to go through someone else."

Su Lingzhi’s eyes glimmered with a slight smile, "Next time."

Due to illness, her weak eyes bore a glow, but lost some of their spirit.

In fact, her constitution was getting weaker.

She had been to Paris before and never experienced acclimatization. Perhaps it was because her body hadn’t fully recovered from the last car accident.

Su Lingzhi watched as his figure enveloped her, feeling the warmth of his kiss on her brow, followed by his voice, "Sleep, I’ll watch over you."

His tone was soft and magnetic, very soothing to hear, as if her physical discomfort had lightened a bit.

She had always thought that men from such noble backgrounds as his were not likely to be caring, but interaction proved otherwise.

Perhaps she had a favorable impression of him; just having him by her side made her feel very secure.

Or maybe because of his attentiveness, it turned into a kind of addiction, penetrating her heart without a nook left untouched; even if she had preconceived notions about him, she would forget all his flaws and be swept away.

Su Lingzhi held his hand and said softly, "Lili, what if one day I can’t live without you?"

Fu Yinli frowned slightly, "We won’t be separated, stop overthinking."

But...

They had only been dating briefly, so it felt a bit early to discuss these things.

With contradictory thoughts, Su Lingzhi stopped pondering further, pulling his hand into the covers, peacefully closing her eyes.

The next day, the group left Paris.

Above the clouds, Shao Ming cornered him by the airplane’s restroom sink, pressing his brow and saying, "Fu Yinli, I really can’t understand you more and more."

"Did you ever understand me?" Fu Yinli said indifferently while taking a tissue to dry his hands.

Shao Ming scoffed, "She was only in Paris for three days, and first you assigned her bodyguards, then you came over yourself. I’ve never seen you go through so much trouble for someone; is she really that important? She’s just a woman."

Fu Yinli turned his eyes to him, "Is there a problem?"

Still in a questioning tone.

His deep brow exuded detachment and pressure.

Shao Ming immediately withdrew a little, fearing that if he displeased him, he’d be thrown off the plane.

"People were having a good time in Paris before you came and ruined it. Watching too closely isn’t good; people will find it annoying."

This speech undoubtedly categorized him as beyond redemption, offering backwards advice.

He couldn’t miss the point.

Fu Yinli slightly lifted the corner of his mouth, speaking in a deep voice, "You don’t understand her. She has pure thoughts, with her eyes on fashion design, and only me."

Shao Ming froze, unable to believe this came from his mouth.

The saying goes, a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; where did he get the confidence to say this?

"What kind of charm spell did Su Lingzhi cast on you? Don’t forget, she played a part in the emergence of that supermodel champion yesterday."

Mentioning this, Fu Yinli’s expression instantly turned cold and chilling.

Raising his eyes, a flash of fierceness crossed his deep gaze, scaring Shao Ming into silence, his hair standing on end.

He had seen that look before; it was the same as when he stabbed a wild beast with a knife on the island years ago.

Though Fu Yinli appeared elegantly dressed and graceful, his inner being was terrifyingly cold, and if one touched his interests, there were dire consequences.

"Over."

Two words, ambiguous, leaving Shao Ming with a cold back view.

But Shao Ming soon understood what he meant by those words.

Thinking back to when Su Lingzhi was blind, he seemed to always have a bias against her, never speaking a good word about her in front of Fu Yinli.

In hindsight, it did seem a bit excessive.

But, the things he spoke of were things he witnessed firsthand, facts indeed.

...

Upon reaching the manor villa, Fu Yinli personally carried her out of the car.

Throughout the journey, she was held in his arms. Actually, she was no longer in serious condition. He was willing to carry her, and Su Lingzhi naturally enjoyed it, but since stepping off the plane, she could sense his mood was a bit off.

The atmosphere was slightly cold at the time.

Once Su Lingzhi got down from him, she said, "I want to take a shower first."

"It’s not suitable for you to bathe now; if you’re uncomfortable, I’ll use a hot towel to wipe you down."

After hesitating, Su Lingzhi agreed.

In the past, after those nights, he would always help her clean her body.

But now, the situation was that he was caring for a patient, rolling up his shirt sleeves, wringing out a hot towel, and wiping her back without any hint of disdain.

During her period of blindness, he showed such meticulous care; she was glad that Lili wasn’t heavily chauvinistic.

It’s just that sometimes he got too caught up in his thoughts.

For example, now.

Su Lingzhi put on clothes, then turned to embrace his waist.

Her cheek against his firm chest, feeling his warmth.

"What’s wrong?" Fu Yinli asked softly.

"Lili, I can sense your emotional changes; is something bothering you?"

Fu Yinli held her, silent.

Having his controlling nature guessed by others, and getting countered, naturally left him displeased. He was well aware it was Rika’s revenge against him, but he hoped the matter would end here.

Su Lingzhi speculated and asked, "In Paris, my godmother mentioned enmity between you two, and that you suppressed Lyrae’s popularity; is this what’s troubling you?"

"Yes," Fu Yinli didn’t deny it.
