Yan Xi ignored Xiang Jing Chen.
Xiang Jing Chen knew Yan Xi was still upset. He spoke lightly, "I was going to tell you about Fu Yan Ting's condition. But seeing as you're not in high spirits, and don't seem to want to know, I thought better of it."
After Xiang Jing Chen finished speaking, Yan Xi still showed no expression, as if what Xiang Jing Chen had to say had nothing to do with her.
Seeing Yan Xi's low mood, Xiang Jing Chen sighed deeply and spoke to himself, "I originally thought you, who loves Fu Yan Ting so much, would be very concerned about his recent situation. Now it seems it's not that much of a deal. What a shame, Fu Yan Ting... Never mind, it's meaningless to talk about this now."
With that, Xiang Jing Chen turned to leave.
Yan Xi quickly grabbed Xiang Jing Chen's sleeve and asked, "How is he?"
Yan Xi didn't even realize her voice was trembling as she asked Xiang Jing Chen this question.
Xiang Jing Chen knew that no matter how much Yan Xi tried to deceive herself, deep down, she couldn't let go of Fu Yan Ting.
He didn't want to tease Yan Xi anymore. He said, "Fu Yan Ting has had a gastric ulcer for a long time and cannot eat spicy food. He ate such spicy hot pot today, which caused his gastric ulcer to develop into gastrointestinal bleeding. Fortunately, there was no danger to his life, and he has now been moved to a regular ward."
Yan Xi was stunned.
She had always known Fu Yan Ting couldn't eat spicy food. But Yan Xi thought it was due to his lifestyle habits that he couldn't eat spicy food. She had never considered that Fu Yan Ting couldn't eat spicy food because he had a gastric ulcer.
If she had known Fu Yan Ting had a gastric ulcer, Yan Xi would never have forced him to divorce her in this way.
No wonder Xin Yi was so angry.
"Sister, you shouldn't blame yourself too much. You didn't know he had a gastric ulcer beforehand," Xiang Jing Chen had wanted to give Yan Xi this news to reassure her, but he hadn't expected his words would make Yan Xi so self-blaming.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have told Yan Xi.
After arriving in Kyoto, Mu Xin Ran's first priority was to visit Fu Yan Ting in the hospital.
Originally, Fu Yan Ting was in the hospital due to illness, and Yan Xi's low spirits had not improved. Therefore, when Mu Xin Ran came to the hospital, Fu Yan Ting had his back to the door and didn't turn around to look.
Mu Xin Ran's eyes welled up with tears as she saw Fu Yan Ting's gaunt appearance.
Fu Yan Ting frowned, indifferently turned around, and was surprised to see his grandmother. He then asked, "Grandmother, why are you here?"
"How dare you ask? If I hadn't come, would you have kept it from me? You didn't tell me about such a major event. Do you still have any respect for me as your grandmother?"
"Grandmother, you've misunderstood. It's not what you think."
Fu Yan Ting calmly explained.
But in his heart, he was perplexed. His grandmother always stayed in the old house in Yancheng and never cared about the outside world. How did she know he was hospitalized?
If it wasn't Yan Xi who told his grandmother, then it must have been Xin Yi.
But Fu Yan Ting had been hospitalized for such a long time, and Yan Xi hadn't visited him. How could she have informed his grandmother about his illness?
It must have been Xin Yi.
After seeing Mu Xin Ran out, Fu Yan Ting summoned Xin Yi to his room.
Xin Yi knew very well why Fu Yan Ting had called him.
Xin Yi was willing to accept his punishment.
Moreover, he didn't think he had done anything wrong. If Xin Yi hadn't acted, Fu Yan Ting would have continued to indulge Yan Xi, letting her stay by his side. To eliminate future troubles, he had to do this.
Xin Yi stood there. Seeing Fu Yan Ting's prolonged silence, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss, did you call me for something you wanted to say?"
Hearing Xin Yi's words, Fu Yan Ting looked up at him, his gaze exceedingly cold.
Xin Yi felt a subtle sense of unease, but he still stood before Fu Yan Ting with feigned composure.
Fu Yan Ting raised an eyebrow and asked, "You were the one who told my grandmother about my hospitalization, weren't you?"
"Yes, Boss. I really couldn't stand it. That Yan Xi is going too far."
"Meddling."
Fu Yan Ting glanced coldly at Xin Yi and said indifferently.
Xin Yi knew he had meddled, but he had no regrets. If he were given another chance, he would do the same.
After all, ensuring Fu Yan Ting's well-being was part of his job.
"Africa is short of a manager. You can go work there."
Fu Yan Ting said calmly.
Xin Yi was stunned. Africa was a very poor and desolate place, inconvenient in terms of food and travel. Fu Yan Ting assigning him there was undoubtedly a punishment.
Xin Yi had no complaints and willingly accepted Fu Yan Ting's arrangement, then left the ward.
After Xin Yi left, Fu Yan Ting closed his eyes.
Although Yan Xi had been ruthless and had hurt him deeply this time, he had never considered telling his grandmother.
If his grandmother knew the truth, she definitely wouldn't let Yan Xi stay by his side.
And Fu Yan Ting had grown up relying on his grandmother; he dared not disobey her commands.
After leaving the hospital, Mu Xin Ran didn't return to her hotel to rest. Instead, she called Yan Xi and asked to meet.
Yan Xi readily accepted Mu Xin Ran's invitation.
After all, Yan Xi had expected Mu Xin Ran to want to see her.
However, Yan Xi hadn't expected Mu Xin Ran to propose a meeting so soon.
At the coffee shop.
Yan Xi and Mu Xin Ran sat opposite each other.
Mu Xin Ran's attitude towards Yan Xi was the complete opposite of before. She looked at Yan Xi coldly and asked, "I heard that my grandson has been hospitalized twice since coming to Kyoto. The first time he was injured, and the second time he was ill. And both times he was hospitalized, you were involved?"
Although Mu Xin Ran was asking Yan Xi a question.
Yan Xi knew very well that if Mu Xin Ran didn't have enough evidence, she wouldn't dare to question her here so rashly.
Yan Xi also understood that things had reached this point, and she and Fu Yan Ting couldn't go on.
Therefore, whether she admitted it or not, it was no longer important.
However, considering how well Mu Xin Ran had treated Yan Xi in the past, Yan Xi didn't want to lie to her. Yan Xi nodded and said, "Yes."
"Miss Yan, I think you are well aware of the original intention behind my asking you to marry Yan Ting. Now, Yan Ting has been hospitalized repeatedly because of you. I think there's no need for you two to continue living together."
Despite being mentally prepared, Mu Xin Ran's words still caught Yan Xi somewhat by surprise. Yan Xi looked up, her clear eyes fixed on Mu Xin Ran.
