Xi Xuanyao walked into the ward and looked at Ruan Yin's face carefully for the first time. She was as thin as a palm, but her beauty was still visible. Her brows were tightly furrowed and she kept muttering something, as if she was not at peace even in her dreams.

He didn't move his eyebrows, not knowing what he was thinking. He walked to the window and looked at the old man in the wheelchair and the children playing downstairs. His thoughts were flying. The investigation results showed that she was deceived by her stepfather that day and happened to meet him who opened the door. Moreover, she came from an ordinary family and had no connection with the Xi family circle. Even if his mother drugged him, she would definitely not send an ordinary girl like her. But is there really such a coincidence? The two people took Chinese medicine at the same time and met each other.

None of this matters now. The fact is that the other party is pregnant with his child. As an adult, he has to be responsible for his actions, even if they were not his original intention.

Lu Xing walked into the room and said, "President, the person has been sent to the police station. Director Zou said that he thanks you for your help and will handle it impartially."

Xi Xuanyao nodded and said nonchalantly: "Let them carefully investigate who is behind this, and inform me as soon as there is any result."

"Yes," Lu Xing said and left. He glanced at the person on the hospital bed. There were only a handful of people who could make the president go to such lengths. He didn't know who this person was.

When Ruan Yin woke up, the first thing she saw was the snow-white ceiling and the luxurious chandelier. Then she noticed Xi Xuanyao standing by the window. He was wearing a well-tailored black suit, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his whole body was as cold as the snow on an iceberg.

"Thank you for saving me," she whispered. The man's cold and silent look made people feel breathless.

Xi Xuanyao turned around and said calmly: "You are awake. The doctor said that you are very weak and need more rest."

Ruan Yin looked around and when she saw the phone Xi Xuanyao handed her, she looked at him gratefully and quickly dialed Song Lan's number. The phone rang twice before being connected. "Mom, are you okay?" Ruan Yin asked hurriedly.

Song Lan spoke in a stream, "Yinyin, where are you? Is anything wrong?"

"Someone saved me, I'm fine, don't worry, I'll be home soon, you wait for me at home," Ruan Yin said in a low voice, comforted her mother a few words, and then hung up the phone.

Xi Xuanyao leaned against the window, his well-fitting suit becoming a little wrinkled, and said casually, "You have signs of miscarriage, I'm afraid you can't leave today."

Ruan Yin subconsciously touched her belly. Was it still there? She didn't know whether to be thankful or regretful. This hospital looked very high-end. The medical expenses should be very expensive. Hospitalization must be even more expensive. She thought about it and asked, "How much is the medical fee? I'll transfer it to you." She didn't want to happen again like what happened to Zhao Huai last time. She was chased by someone to ask about the medical expenses. She was so embarrassed that she dug her toes into the ground when she thought about it now.

It was the first time that Xi Xuanyao was asked how much the medical expenses were, and was told to pay him back. He couldn't help but ask, "You really don't know me?"

Ruan Yin looked at him strangely. Although he was very handsome, she was sure that she didn't know him. If she had met such an outstanding person, she would definitely have a deep impression. Thinking of this, she shook her head decisively and tried her best to ignore the sense of familiarity.

Xi Xuanyao narrowed his dark eyes slightly. Was she pretending, or did she really not remember?

Ruan Yin threw back the quilt and stood up, saying persistently: "I'll transfer the medical expenses to you. You saved me and sent me to the hospital, I'm already very grateful. I can't let you do a good deed and still pay for the medical expenses. If you need me for anything in the future, I will do my best to repay you." Although he didn't look like someone who would need her, she still had to say what she had to say.

Xi Xuanyao had no idea about such a trivial matter as medical expenses. Seeing her persistence, he casually reported a number. Ruan Yin scanned his payment code and transferred it to him, saying gratefully: "Thank you, I'm fine, so I won't be hospitalized. If you have anything to find me, you can call me directly." She gave Xi Xuanyao the phone number and prepared to leave. She was worried about her mother being alone at home.

Just after she took two steps, Xi Xuanyao grabbed her wrist, which was so thin that it seemed like it would break if he exerted too much force. Xi Xuanyao eased his force and said, "The people who kidnapped you have been sent to the police station. I have also sent people to take care of your mother. Now let's talk about what happened between us."

Ruan Yin: What happened between them? Was it a life-saving favor? He didn't look like someone who needed her help. She looked at Xi Xuanyao in confusion.

"The baby in your belly is mine. We were both not very clear-headed that day. If you need me, I can take responsibility. If you don't plan to keep the baby, I respect your choice and will give you compensation," Xi Xuanyao said directly. Regardless of whether she was deliberately retreating to advance or not, there was no need for him to waste his energy on such things.

Ruan Yin looked at him with her mouth wide open, her head buzzing, and she asked in a hoarse voice as if she didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"

Xi Xuanyao repeated his words, his eyes seemed to have deep meaning, and Ruan Yin asked weakly: "Can I see a doctor?"

Five minutes later, Gu Cheng stepped into the ward again, but was stumped by Ruan Yin's question. She actually wanted to have an abortion? He couldn't help but glance at Xi Xuanyao, but heard him say, "To answer her question truthfully, don't worry about me."

Gu Cheng agreed while secretly complaining in his heart. If the old lady knew that he had killed her long-awaited grandson, he, as the dean, would be done for. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are overly worried and your body is weak, so you are not suitable for abortion. This is one thing. On the other hand, your endometrium is naturally thin. If you have a miscarriage, it will be very difficult for you to get pregnant again. You must think it through." He was telling the truth.

"I understand. Thank you, doctor," Ruan Yin said with a forced smile, her fingers tightly clenched around the corner of her clothes.

Gu Cheng left the ward and just breathed a sigh of relief when his cell phone rang. He didn't dare to delay for a moment and said respectfully: "Madam, do you want a physical examination? Tomorrow? Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

He patted his heart and sent a message to Xi Xuanyao, telling him that the old lady would be coming tomorrow. If he didn't tell him, he wouldn't be able to explain himself if he met her tomorrow.

The ward was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Ruan Yin bit her lip, looked at Xi Xuanyao cautiously, and said, "Can I think about it for a few days?" She could tell that he was very rich. Even if she couldn't tell the brand of the clothes he was wearing, his temperament was there, cold and noble, unattainable. It was obvious that he didn't want to have anything to do with her, and she knew it very well.

"Okay, no matter what your decision is, I respect it," Xi Xuanyao stood up and said, "You are very weak now and need to stay in bed to rest. When you get better, we can discuss how to solve it. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Ruan Yin nodded, hesitating to speak. Xi Xuanyao frowned and said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."

"Are you single?" Seeing that his face was so gloomy that it looked like water could drip, she explained, "I don't want to feel guilty, and I don't want to be a mistress for no reason." If he was married or already had a girlfriend, she would rather have an abortion. If she couldn't be pregnant, then she wouldn't be pregnant. She could focus on her career, which was also another kind of life.

Xi Xuanyao's eyes flashed with admiration. If he said it was for him, it would sound fake. They had only met three times, so she shouldn't have considered him to this extent. He whispered, "Single, no girlfriend, no lover. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
