Thinking of the emphasis in the tone of the two people on the phone, it was not about coercion, but more about worry. This feeling became more and more weird in her heart.

"It means they care about you." Shen Chen said.

She was lying on the hospital bed, looking at Ji Shunuan's smiling face, and she couldn't help feeling relieved.

It seems like I haven’t seen Ji Shunuan so relaxed for a long time.

When she was tied to work at Gu's company, she had to go out early and come back late all day long in order to get projects. She was constantly negotiating cooperation, looking for investment, and even had to attend social events.

Although he is young, he is full of scars.

Now that I have left the Gu family, I have finally returned to the state I should be in at the age of 23.

You can eat when you want, drink when you want, sleep when you want, laugh when you want, and you can even go up the mountain and stay overnight. This is already very good.

"Sister Chen, why are you looking at me like that?" Ji Shunuan met her gaze, confused.

Shen Chen's gaze was quite direct, which made her stunned. She didn't know what Shen Chen was thinking.

"Looking at your current state, I am very relieved. In the past, you worked very hard all day long, but you were still not recognized. Now, you seem to have finally gained some life and become more humane."

"I can relax and laugh happily, and I can also let it go if it's bad. In other words, I can relax and be willful. This is the state I should be in at my age."

"Actually, it's already pretty good. Working hard for life and fighting for yourself is much better than being a walking corpse before." Shen Chen whispered.

Ji Shunuan listened and quickly reached out to touch his face.

"Really?" Ji Shunuan asked in a low voice.

She was a little nervous. She had felt the changes that Shen Chen mentioned, but she didn't expect them to be so obvious.

"Of course, that's what girls should be like. Smile when you're happy and don't act stubborn when you're unhappy. It's good the way you are now, and it proves a point." Shen Chen leaned on the bed very relaxed.

Ji Shunuan came over quickly and peeled the orange for her, asking, "Which part?"

"You found the right person. You met Bo Jingcheng, the right person." Shen Chen said in a low voice.

Facts have proved that everything is because of meeting the right person, and life will be normal.

"I haven't thought about these." Ji Shunuan said helplessly.

But thinking carefully about what Shen Chen said, combined with her current life situation, she is indeed more relaxed and more self-satisfied than before, and she enjoys her current life very much.

"Don't think about it, just live well in the present." Shen Chen said.

She reached out and took Ji Shunuan's hand, holding it tightly, and said, "Don't feel too stressed when you meet with Mr. Cheng and Mr. Li."

"It doesn't matter whether they came for your personal ability, or for the funds your mother left you, or your mother's funds were originally tied to them."

"Actually, these are not important at all. What's important is that they have always chosen you." Shen Chen said.

She is older than Ji Shunuan and thinks things more thoroughly.

Life is only a few short decades, so it is enough to live as you please.

"I know, but in the business world right now, to be honest, they are able to be so decisive and straightforward, even without being forced by all the pressure. They have already defeated everyone."

"Many people who do business are after profits, but they are cautious and afraid of offending anyone. We won't be like them," said Ji Shunuan.

Shen Chen listened to her quietly.

"So, this proves one thing. He is targeting you. No matter what their goal was at the beginning, they are following you now."

“Once the Gu family gets to know this news, they will definitely go crazy.” Shen Chen said, laughing out loud.

She just laughed and pulled the wound on her body.

"Hiss." She groaned quickly.

Seeing this, Ji Shunuan immediately reached out to support her, and said seriously: "Don't laugh, if you laugh again the wound will split open, and you will have to stay in the hospital longer."

"Yes, yes, I won't laugh." Shen Chen quickly shut up.

She lay quietly on the hospital bed, watching Ji Shunuan playing with her phone. She subconsciously picked up her phone, but frowned and whispered, "Mr. Gu wants to meet me."

"What do you think?" Ji Shunuan asked.

Shen Chen shook his head and said, "No, there's no need to see them. I have no feelings for the Gu family and I don't miss them."

*****

Meanwhile, on the other side of the hospital.

After Gu Zhiyuan was transferred back to the ward, he was no longer in danger. He lay there in a trance, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"What's going on?" Old Master Gu shouted angrily.

He took the teacup and put it heavily on the table.

A "bang" sound brought Gu Zhiyuan back to his senses.

Gu Zhiyuan was in a daze for a moment before he looked up at the old man. He moved his body with difficulty and said, "Grandpa, I was careless."

"Have you ever thought about the consequences of drugging Ji Shunuan? If it's really traced back to you, you won't even know how you died." Old Master Gu lowered his voice.

He stood up and walked out, opened the door and looked around, and then closed the door when he found that there was indeed no one around.

Old Master Gu put his hands behind his back, walked to the front of the bed, stood there, and looked down at Gu Zhiyuan.

"Last night, all free blood donation stations and relief stations in the country were shut down. Many irregular stations were also closed down, and many people were arrested."

"We have rescued more than 2,000 missing persons, and found more than 5,000 bodies that had not been dealt with in time. The investigation is now very strict." Old Man Gu said in a cold voice.

Gu Zhiyuan was stunned, his fingertips trembled, and his eyes became empty.

"So powerful?" Gu Zhiyuan murmured in a low voice.

Old Master Gu leaned forward, resting his hands on the side of the bed, staring at him coldly and saying, "The man Ji Shunuan provoked this time is not a simple man."

"We had always suspected that someone from the Bo family had come to Jincheng, but we couldn't find any trace of him."

"Now considering everything, the man behind Ji Shunuan is most likely Bo Jingcheng. He is actually having an affair with Ji Shunuan."

"If our Gu family is angered, I'm afraid we will go bankrupt. No wonder all our partners have withdrawn. I guess they have received the news."

"If Ji Shunuan doesn't return to the Gu family, our situation will become even more dangerous. Now stop everything you are doing and pretend you knew nothing about it. Just focus on your business." Mr. Gu said.

The more he spoke, the heavier his breathing became, and it was obvious that he was too anxious.

Old Master Gu fell back heavily into his chair, took a sip of his tea, and said, "If I had known that Ji Shunuan had such good connections and resources, I should have parted ways amicably and not torn my relationship with her."

"For the sake of those millions of dollars in salary, we forced her to turn against us. We really shouldn't have done that. Besides, our Gu family doesn't need that little money." Mr. Gu regretted it the moment he mentioned this.

At that time, I thought I could control her and force her to come back.
