Chapter 407: Chapter 407 - Negotiations Between Two Men

For the first time, Su Cheng began to regard Ji Liangchuan with newfound respect. He actually felt it was unfair to use his friendship with He Xing to attack Ji Liangchuan, but to his surprise, Ji Liangchuan had resolved it so easily. Even if Su Cheng wanted to find a flaw, he couldn’t refute it.

Silence, a deathly silence began to spread in the restroom.

It was as if invisible swords were clashing in midair, with Su Cheng and Ji Liangchuan at the center, both exerting their powerful auras to their fullest.

After an unknown amount of time, it was Su Cheng who first broke the silence, not for anything in particular but suddenly feeling that the standoff with Ji Liangchuan was meaningless. He wished to end this confrontation quickly.

A smile appeared at the corner of Su Cheng’s eyes as he looked at Ji Liangchuan and said, word by word, "Since we are both pursuing Fu Han, the decision lies in Fu Han’s hands. Let’s each rely on our own abilities."

Ji Liangchuan first gave a cold snort, as if to silently ask, "Do you think you can be my rival?" but ultimately, he nodded in agreement.

The two returned to wait outside the Operating Room, still with expressionless faces, as if nothing had happened at all.

Luckily, Fu Xingbo and Bai Qian didn’t ask any further questions; they simply looked up at them.

A few minutes later, the door of the Operating Room opened from the inside. Fu Xingbo was the first to react, rushing toward the entrance, followed quickly by the other four.

They saw Fu Han being pushed out of the Operating Room on a hospital bed, her face wrapped in thick bandages like a mummy; she was still in the loose hospital gown, making her look tiny, like a child sleeping in an adult’s bed.

Fu Xingbo anxiously asked, "Doctor, how was the result of the surgery?"

The leading Doctor took off his surgical mask — it was Daisi, who He Xing had invited to A City to perform facial surgery on Fu Han. This time, it was Fu Xingbo who had called in many favors to have Daisi operate on Fu Han as a priority.

Daisi spoke fluently in English, "Mr. Fu, rest assured, the surgery went very smoothly. Lady Fu Han just needs to recover for a while before she can regain her beautiful appearance."

Bai Qian uttered a Buddhist chant, her eyes already moist. God knows how nervous she was waiting for Daisi to speak. If it hadn’t been for Fu Xingbo’s support, she might have cried.

Su Cheng was also overjoyed, his head turning in all directions, wanting to share the joy with others, only to lock eyes with Ji Liangchuan’s gaze.

The recent events had left him with no good impression of Ji Liangchuan. He wanted to retract the smile from his face, but how could he manage such control in a rush?

However, before he could turn his head away, Ji Liangchuan also revealed a smile to him.

In that moment, these two men, who were jealous over Fu Han, began to smile over the same thing.

Surrounded by a group of people, Fu Han was taken to her Ward — it was the same one she had before. Inside were fresh flowers Bai Qian had bought that morning, bringing some life to the cold room.

Bai Wei sent a message, and Bai Qian, thinking Bai Wei hadn’t slept yet, simply made a video call to her. After a while, the video was finally answered.

"Why are the lights off?" Bai Qian asked in confusion, looking at the pitch-dark screen on the phone. "Didn’t I tell you not to play with your phone in the dark? It’s bad for your eyes."

"Ah... um... yes, I know," Bai Wei’s sleepy voice came through. "I... I just turned off the lights. How... how did Fu Han’s surgery go?"

That single question successfully shifted Bai Qian’s attention. She replied with a particularly cheerful smile, "The surgery was successful. In a few days, Xiaohan will be even more beautiful, prettier than you."

"Successful?" Bai Wei’s voice sharply rose several octaves, the sleepiness gone, replaced by excitement. "Did you hear that? The surgery was successful, that’s great."

Bai Qian was confused and couldn’t help but ask, "Bai Wei, is there someone else with you? Who are you with?"

Before Bai Wei could answer, Fu Xingbo had already snatched the phone away, speaking sternly into it, "Bai Wei, your mother and I do not approve of you living with your boyfriend before marriage. Don’t you know that?"

Hearing this, Su Cheng couldn’t help but laugh. He thought to himself that if he and Fu Han got married and had their own children, if they had a daughter, he would definitely be like Fu Xingbo.

On the phone, Bai Wei was clearly flustered, insistently explaining she was alone. But now, not only Fu Xingbo but also Bai Qian were convinced there was someone with Bai Wei; they needed to see who it was.

Su Cheng listened to Bai Wei’s battle of wits with her parents and indulged in imagining his future with Fu Han, feeling like life was brightening up, his mood unconsciously improving.

Just what would Bai Wei think if she knew about Su Cheng’s mood at that moment?

Bai Wei, already out of defenses under her parents’ questioning, called out impatiently, "Alright, will you stop nagging me if I turn on the light for you to see?"

"Don’t," came a man’s voice from the phone, sounding somewhat familiar.

The people on this end exchanged puzzled looks, thinking that there indeed was a man with Bai Wei, and not just any man; they also mused that the voice didn’t sound like Luo Qinghe’s.

Before they could speculate any further, the phone screen lit up, showing Bai Wei’s face against a blank white wall. Bai Qian frowned and asked, "Bai Wei, where exactly are you?"

Bai Wei didn’t answer her question, but instead quickly switched the camera view. The screen revealed a man’s profile against the backdrop of the white wall, chiseled and striking, a face that was clearly a masterpiece of the divine.

"He Xing?" Bai Qian was the first to react. She widened her eyes at the sight of the embarrassed He Xing on the screen, afraid she had mistaken Luo Qinghe for He Xing. "Bai Wei, how come you’re with He Xing?"

As soon as Bai Wei decided to completely betray He Xing by turning on the light against his will, she resolved to reveal everything at her mother’s inquiry. Without withholding anything, she told them everything that had happened in the past few days.

Bai Qian and Fu Xingbo looked at each other in disbelief.

In the end, it was Fu Xingbo who spoke first, "Why are you two bothering with such thankless tasks? Can’t He Xing contact Fu Han himself? Why does he have to use your phone? And even though he’s your brother, you’re both adults. What does it look like, living in the same room?"
