Chapter 376: Chapter 376: The Girl Talks about Gossip

This time, Fu Han didn’t brush off Bai Wei but talked to her seriously; in this moment, they were like two schoolgirls hiding in a secluded corner, discussing school gossip without any malice.

Today was the day of Fu Han’s discharge from the hospital, and it was also Bai Wei’s discharge day. Bai Wei could have been discharged yesterday, but she thought it would be pitiful for Fu Han to be in the hospital alone, so she postponed her discharge by a day.

The first to arrive was Su Cheng. It was only after Bai Wei saw the bandages on Su Cheng’s hands and his pale face that she learned what had happened last night.

Last night, Bai Wei had already fallen asleep when the person in black came. Moreover, because this was a high-class ward with excellent soundproofing, you could hardly hear anything from the next room once the doors and windows were closed.

After learning about the existence of the man in black, Bai Wei stroked her chin thoughtfully, "Who exactly wants to take your life? The Xia Family was in total chaos yesterday; it couldn’t be them. But who else could it be aside from them? Fu Han, think about it, which family have you offended?"

"Cough cough..." Fu Han coughed awkwardly and said helplessly, "I’ve thought about this question for a long time and can’t figure it out. I feel like I’m pretty low-key in what I do, and I haven’t deliberately offended anyone."

As the two of them were discussing, Luo Qinghe, who was playing with his phone, looked up at Su Cheng with a meaningful glance, "Su Cheng, do you think there’s anyone else who might look at Fu Han unfavorably?"

The color drained from Su Cheng’s fair face as he hurriedly said to Fu Han, "Fu Han, I asked my parents about it last night, and they said they have nothing to do with it... I... I promise you here, my parents would never do such a thing to you. If it was them... I... may lightning strike me."

He was so agitated that he stuttered as he spoke.

Bai Wei and Luo Qinghe exchanged a glance. Everyone saw the same suspicion in each other’s eyes, just as they had instinctively thought of Su Cheng’s parents moments ago.

Somehow, the atmosphere in the room became especially awkward, an awkwardness not even the autumn breeze of early morning could dispel.

Fu Han was the first to react. She looked at Su Cheng with a sincere face, "Su Cheng, I believe this matter has nothing to do with your parents. If that person was sent by them, how could he possibly harm you?"

Honestly, if it weren’t for Luo Qinghe, Fu Han had never thought that last night’s incident could be connected to Su Cheng. It’s not an exaggeration to say that, if it weren’t for Su Cheng, she really would have had no chance to survive last night.

A fleeting tear sparkled in Su Cheng’s eyes, but he forced it back down.

Just as he opened his mouth to say something, a noisy commotion came from the entrance. Fu Xingbo and Bai Qian had arrived, accompanied by He Xing.

He Xing shook the discharge papers in his hand and smiled brilliantly at Fu Han, "Xiaohan, congratulations, you’re discharged. Let’s go."

Fu Han glanced at Su Cheng. She was planning to buy breakfast for him before leaving, but she didn’t want He Xing and Fu Xingbo to know about what had happened last night.

As she was pondering how to broach the subject, Bai Wei beat her to it, "He Xing, you’re quite the actor, aren’t you? Don’t you know Fu Han almost died last night?"

He Xing’s face turned pale in an instant. His eyes widened as he looked at Fu Han, asking word by word, "What happened last night?"

Truthfully, Fu Han had harbored some resentment toward He Xing. Seeing his reaction at this moment, she unexpectedly felt a softening in her heart, and the words on her lips couldn’t come out.

In that pause, Fu Xingbo also asked about the events. Su Cheng looked at the equally pale-faced Fu Han, understanding that she probably couldn’t bring herself to speak. He briefly described what had happened the previous night.

The three who had just come in looked at each other in bewilderment. None of them had come to the hospital last night. They all thought that today Fu Han and Bai Wei would be discharged, never expecting that something would happen so suddenly when the previous nights had been uneventful.

He Xing handed the discharge papers to Fu Xingbo and after saying he was going to investigate, he turned and walked towards the outside of the ward.

Everything happened in an instant, and by the time everyone reacted, Fu Han had already chased after him.

She stopped He Xing in front of the head nurse, grabbed his arm with both hands, and dragged him toward the elevator room, "Come with me, let’s clear things up first."

Without Fu Han in the ward, no one felt more awkward than Su Cheng.

After Fu Xingbo came to his senses, he walked over to Su Cheng to express his concern, finally whispering, "Su Cheng, thank you for saving Fu Han last night. From now on, you’re not only Fu Han’s lifesaver but also the lifesaver of the Fu Family. If you need any help in the future, don’t hesitate to ask me."

Bai Qian and Bai Wei also nodded vigorously, indicating their agreement with what Fu Xingbo had said.

Tears flickered again in Su Cheng’s eyes as he said seriously, "Uncle, thank you for your words, but I didn’t save Fu Han expecting gratitude. For Fu Han, I’m willing to risk my life willingly."

Every word he spoke was resolute, and the looks in the four other people’s eyes in the ward changed. They were shocked, relieved, and envious. What kind of intense emotion does it take to pledge one’s life for someone?

This time it wasn’t only Su Cheng whose eyes were bloodshot; the usually composed Fu Xingbo was no exception.

He sniffed and gave Su Cheng a firm pat on the shoulder, "I’ve seen everything you’ve been through, and matters of the heart cannot be forced. Fu Han’s affection for He Xing is something that cannot be changed. Otherwise, I would have really liked you, a clean young man like you."

If it had been anyone else who said these words to Su Cheng, he would have just listened and let it go, but this was Fu Xingbo, Fu Han’s uncle, the person with the deepest blood ties to Fu Han in this world.

Emotion surged through Su Cheng, blood boiling with an unknown courage. He stared straight at Fu Xingbo, "Uncle, love is voluntary. My feelings for Fu Han are my own, and whom Fu Han likes is her business. On the day Fu Han got married, I thought about giving up. But the outcome has proven that Fu Han and He Xing being together only leads to suffering. So, I am unwilling to give up. I will pursue Fu Han with all my sincerity, and even if things don’t turn out the way I hope, I will never blame fate or others."

By the end, tears were welling up in Su Cheng’s eyes again, just like the day he had watched helplessly as Fu Han and He Xing professed their love for each other on stage, his heart aching too much to breathe.

Another silence ensued. All eight eyes in the ward remained on Su Cheng, their expressions incredibly complex. It seemed no one had expected Su Cheng’s feelings for Fu Han to run so deep.

A barely audible sigh filled the room. Bai Qian asked gently, "Su Cheng, if Fu Han’s face remains as it is now, will you still like her like this?"
