Chapter 325: Chapter 325: He Has Someone in His Heart

Pei Liyan and Qiao Rui exchanged a glance, tacitly agreeing to stop bickering and instead turned to look at Shen Shuyi together.

Shen Shuyi was taken aback when she saw them, then smiled and said, "Mr. Pei, Mrs. Pei, good morning."

Pei Liyan nodded slightly, "Good morning, Miss Shen."

"Miss Shen," Qiao Rui said blandly, "Why are you at the hospital so early?"

Shen Shuyi smiled faintly, "Oh, I’ve got some matters to attend to. You all go ahead, I’ll take the elevator."

Clearly, she didn’t want to say much.

Though Shen Shuyi maintained basic courtesy with a faint smile, anyone could see that her smile appeared rather pale and forced.

Could it be that she knows Muyu is injured?

Qiao Rui felt alarm bells ringing in her head, but she still managed to keep a calm demeanor and said, "Alright, Miss Shen, go ahead."

Pei Liyan glanced at Qiao Rui without a word.

Shen Shuyi had already left, and Qiao Rui was still looking in the direction of the elevator, lost in her thoughts.

"Let’s go!" Pei Liyan spoke up.

Qiao Rui turned her head to glance at him, "Do you think Miss Shen came to see Miss Song?"

"Isn’t it normal to visit an injured sister-in-law?" Pei Liyan countered calmly. "It just proves their good relationship."

"Good relationship?" Qiao Rui smiled.

"Isn’t it?" Pei Liyan looked at her, his gaze sharper.

Qiao Rui glanced back at him. "Of course it is, Mr. Pei is right."

"You’re not usually one for gossip; why suddenly bring up sister-in-law matters?" Pei Liyan continued, eyes intently on Qiao Rui.

"Everyone loves gossip," Qiao Rui shrugged. "I love it too, isn’t that okay?"

"Sure, as long as you like it," Pei Liyan laughed.

Qiao Rui couldn’t help but glance once more at Pei Liyan’s cold, determined face, a trace of confusion crossing her eyes.

He doesn’t seem worried at all; he must be doing it on purpose.

Qiao Rui also smiled, saying, "Let’s go back."

Pei Liyan had initially intended to see how she would react, whether she would be concerned about Song Muyu, but she didn’t go upstairs to protect Song Muyu.

This discovery surprised Pei Liyan a bit.

"Okay, let’s go!"

They all got into the car and left.

Qiao Rui leaned back in the seat, closing her eyes to rest.

She wasn’t that worried about Muyu anymore, because by deciding to have an abortion, Muyu should be well aware of what she wanted.

She knew what she was doing, no need for Qiao Rui to worry.

Moreover, Muyu’s skills were decent,

Shen Shuyi going up alone posed no threat.

She had investigated, Shen Shuyi was brought up as a noblewoman, not capable of fighting; she should be more skilled in manipulation.

However, Shen Shuyi wasn’t simple, they had seen that at the engagement ceremony.

In the hospital room.

Song Muyu lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling for a while when someone knocked on the door.

She glanced towards the door and said, "Come in!"

This time, the door opened.

Shen Shuyi stood at the doorway, glanced inside, and only after confirming the person on the bed was Song Muyu did she say, "Muyu!"

"Sister-in-law?" Song Muyu was somewhat surprised, not expecting Shen Shuyi to be here too.

"It’s me!" Shen Shuyi smiled, closed the door, and walked in. "Last night, I heard your brother tell me you were hospitalized for being sick, so I came to see you."

Song Muyu was stunned again, surprised as she looked at Shen Shuyi.

Originally, she shouldn’t have thought much about it, but Shen Shuyi’s words made her have some thoughts about this sister-in-law.

For one, Song Muyu understood Song Xun; he definitely wouldn’t tell Shen Shuyi about her being hospitalized.

Secondly, Shen Shuyi emphasized the timing, last night, which should also be untrue.

Song Xun was at the hospital last night, even if he went back, it would be in the middle of the night.

In the middle of the night, how could they possibly talk about such things?

Two points indicated Shen Shuyi likely lied.

Song Muyu’s thoughts churned, but she still managed a smile, "Thank you, sister-in-law, for worrying about me."

"There’s no need to be formal," Shen Shuyi moved to the bedside, pulled up a chair, sat down, and said to her, "It’s only natural that I care for you."

Song Muyu also smiled.

The two exchanged a glance, without saying more.

The atmosphere grew quiet swiftly, making it feel oddly serene.

Song Muyu felt Shen Shuyi’s visit was quite awkward.

The matters between her and Song Xun before Shen Shuyi and Song Xun’s engagement left her without guilt towards Shen Shuyi.

But feeling guiltless didn’t mean the situation wasn’t awkward.

"Muyu." Shen Shuyi gazed at her and said, "Your brother is very worried about you and says you need to recuperate."

This wasn’t Song Xun’s nature, he wouldn’t voluntarily say it; even if asked, he wouldn’t disclose it.

Song Muyu responded without giving away her emotions, "Sister-in-law, my brother wouldn’t be so thoughtful and concerned; it must be your concern."

"Hehe," Shen Shuyi laughed immediately, "You saw through it, your brother is a man, not as careful."

Song Muyu just smiled again, believing this small talk was far too fake.

She wasn’t in a rush to say anything, going along and reacting as things came.

"Muyu." Shen Shuyi hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Your body needs good rest; us women have it tough in our lives."

Song Muyu could sense the underlying meaning; Shen Shuyi certainly knew about her hospitalization due to the aftereffects of the miscarriage, leading to major bleeding.

She wasn’t sure what exactly Shen Shuyi knew, but she was sure her visit today was to probe.

"Yes, sister-in-law, you’re right; women have it hard, so you and brother should take care, get married and have children soon."

Shen Shuyi was stunned, couldn’t help but glance at Song Muyu, "Muyu, do you really think your brother will marry me?"

"Why would sister-in-law ask that?" Song Muyu responded with a counter-question.

Shen Shuyi forced a bitter smile and said, "Honestly, your brother has someone in his heart."

Song Muyu was momentarily taken aback and then smiled, "Sister-in-law, my brother must have you in his heart."

"The person in his heart may not be me," Shen Shuyi sighed, "Sorry to make you laugh."

Song Muyu wasn’t sure if Shen Shuyi was playing mind games or genuinely expressing her feelings.

But their relationship hadn’t reached a point for genuine confessions.

Moreover, choosing this timing during her hospitalization to talk about these things wasn’t in line with a noble demeanor.

So, in the end, it was probably a test.

The hospital room remained silent, and Song Muyu wasn’t in a hurry to respond.

"Even during intimate moments, he can be absent-minded; do you think he has someone else in mind?" Shen Shuyi spoke, her dark eyes intently fixed on Song Muyu.

Song Muyu was startled, easily catching the point, during intimate moments.

This was probably the main point Shen Shuyi wanted to convey.

So, Song Muyu gave a slight smile, seemingly wearing a mask, and replied calmly, "Sister-in-law, I think not; if the brother didn’t care for you, he wouldn’t be engaged to you."

"Muyu, who do you think your brother’s special someone might be?" Shen Shuyi asked again.

Song Muyu met Shen Shuyi’s gaze, deep and focused.

"Sister-in-law," Song Muyu said, "you should ask brother about this; I’m not him, I can’t answer it for you."

"I thought you could tell me something," Shen Shuyi said, with a double meaning.

Song Muyu was startled inside but remained composed, responding, "Sister-in-law, being overly suspicious as a woman is a major mistake."
