Chapter 337: It’s Dark

Chapter 337: Chapter 337: It’s Dark

"I didn’t see anything," Shen Heyu withdrew her gaze and looked discontentedly at the man beside her, not understanding why this man always acted this way. Simply because she looked at others a bit more, he had to make a remark.

Pei Yansi observed her face for a long while, "It’s best that way."

After that, he pulled over a chair and sat beside Lu Yi’s hospital bed. He quietly looked at Lu Yi’s face, which was severely pale, and his chapped lips appeared lifeless.

He frowned, darkly thinking that this man was already lying here, clearly not in life-threatening danger, yet still dragging down Shen Heyu’s pace.

Shen Heyu didn’t know what he was thinking; she also pulled over another chair and sat beside Lu Yi, then reached for the chicken soup on the bedside table, muttering to herself, "He still hasn’t awakened; this is probably going to be wasted."

Pei Yansi glanced at her and did not reply.

Shen Heyu looked at Lu Yi’s heart monitor, feeling worried, not knowing when he would awaken.

While lost in thought, she suddenly remembered something. She turned her head towards Pei Yansi and said, "I agreed to work at your company yesterday, but you still haven’t told me about the suspicious points of this car accident."

Pei Yansi responded indifferently, "Do you really want to know?"

Wasn’t he asking knowingly? If she didn’t truly want to know, how could she possibly agree to work at his company?

She rolled her eyes at him, "What do you think?"

Pei Yansi said, "I suspect it’s Chen Wenzhou."

Shen Heyu was stunned for a moment, "Chen Wenzhou? How could it be him?"

"Why not?" Pei Yansi looked intently at her, "Do you understand him well?"

Shen Heyu was taken aback by his question.

Indeed, she did not understand Chen Wenzhou well. Her fleeting knowledge of him came from Lu Yunlan’s words.

She carefully recalled that Chen Wenzhou had indeed been suspicious recently. Clearly, his own sister was also in the hospital, yet he didn’t seem to care and was constantly by Lu Yunlan and Lu Yi’s side.

Shen Heyu felt something was wrong. "He doesn’t even know Lu Yi. What reason would he have to do this?"

Since they didn’t know each other, there were no conflicts of interest, no conflicts of interest, she couldn’t figure out why Chen Wenzhou would do this.

Pei Yansi indifferently said, "What about Chen Lingmeng? Have you forgotten her?"

"Do you mean that Chen Wenzhou’s intended victim was Chen Lingmeng and Lu Yi was just collateral damage?"

Pei Yansi nodded, that was precisely what he meant.

Others might not know, but Pei Yansi was well aware that although the brother and sister duo of the Chen Family appeared harmonious on the surface, they were actually fighting viciously beneath it.

Initially, Chen Wenzhou was not the Chen Family’s biological child but an adopted son. At that time, Chen Lingmeng hadn’t been born yet, and he received quite a bit of affection at home.

It was only later that Chen Wenzhou was isolated when the parents of the Chen Family had their biological child, Chen Lingmeng, and naturally, their attention towards Chen Wenzhou greatly diminished.

That was also when Chen Wenzhou began to harbor a hate for Chen Lingmeng.

However, due to family relations, he had never shown this openly over the years.

But Pei Yansi knew that he always detested Chen Lingmeng in his heart. Now that both of them had returned to the country and wanted to fight for the Chen Family’s inheritance, he was the man and Chen Lingmeng was the woman, yet the heir chosen was Chen Lingmeng.

How could he possibly swallow such a blow?

Only by removing Chen Lingmeng could he attain everything he desired.

But Pei Yansi would not tell Shen Heyu all of this.

After all, they didn’t know each other, and telling her wouldn’t help; it would only make her question human nature in a different way.

She had already suffered Shen Fanshuang’s persecution. Now, Pei Yansi didn’t want her to get involved in Chen Wenzhou’s emotions.

Especially since there was also a Lu Yunlan on his side.

Lu Yunlan’s relationship with her was closer than family. If Shen Heyu got involved, it would undoubtedly upset her.

Shen Heyu didn’t know his mind had already gone through so many twists and turns. She simply found it incredible. Chen Wenzhou seemed gentle and amiable on the surface, always smiling, embodying the image of a sunny, cheerful young man.

How could he harbor such dark thoughts?

As Shen Heyu was pondering this, her stomach suddenly growled with hunger.

She then remembered that that morning she had rushed to the hospital without even having breakfast.

Pei Yansi heard it too—the soft, weak gurgling sound, though faint. In the quiet of the hospital room, it was still quite clear.

He glanced at her somewhat amused, "What would you like to eat?"

Shen Heyu, feeling somewhat embarrassed, touched her stomach, "Anything is fine."

"Wait here for me," Pei Yansi stood up to leave, then remembered something and turned back to her, "Remember, keep your distance from him."

After saying that, he pulled open the door and left.

Shen Heyu stuck out her tongue at his retreating figure. Lu Yi was lying unconscious on the hospital bed, unable to interact with her—what distance could she possibly maintain?

She felt somewhat speechless about Pei Yansi’s jealousy.

She sat alone in the hospital room, guarding Lu Yi, while reflecting on what Pei Yansi had just said.

Of course, she wasn’t dumb. She could vaguely guess that Chen Wenzhou and Chen Lingmeng must have some grievances.

As Shen Heyu was deep in thought, she suddenly heard Lu Yi’s voice, "Heyu, water..."

Shen Heyu was startled; she hadn’t expected Lu Yi, in his muddled state of unconsciousness, to think of her. But she quickly reacted, grabbed a cup of hot water from the bedside table, and offered it to him.

She assisted him in drinking it, and then he fell back into unconsciousness.

Watching him like this, something inside Shen Heyu stirred uncomfortably.

Just then, his fingers suddenly moved, and his mouth began murmuring her name clearly.

Shen Heyu paused. His hand was flailing about, as if trying to grasp something. Without taking the time to think, she quickly reached out her own hand and grabbed his, asking with concern, "How are you feeling?"

Lu Yi remained unconscious, as if without awareness, and did not respond to her.

He couldn’t respond.

Watching him like this, Shen Heyu felt a tight pain in her heart. Over the years, Lu Yi had been by her side many times, helping her through difficulties. Naturally, she felt heartbroken over his plight.

As Shen Heyu was lost in her thoughts, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open.

Instinctively, she turned her head to look, and saw Pei Yansi standing at the door with a breakfast in hand. His face was gloomy, his eyes intensely fixed on her hand holding Lu Yi’s.

Shen Heyu paused, and then, almost like a reflex, she abruptly let go of Lu Yi’s hand, unable to explain why she reacted that way.

Clearly, there was nothing between her and Lu Yi, but Pei Yansi’s dark gaze was truly frightening.

"What did I say before I left?" Pei Yansi walked in.
