Fu Yan Ting carried Yan Xi into the car and drove back to the hotel.
He didn't know why Yan Xi had appeared at the Yao Corporation.
However, when he saw how close Yan Xi and Xiang Jing Chen were outside the Yao Corporation building, Fu Yan Ting admitted that he was jealous.
Yan Xi went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor finally told Fu Yan Ting that Yan Xi was fine, she just hadn't rested well and was now asleep.
Fu Yan Ting's suspended heart finally settled, but he did not let down his guard.
Yan Xi really wasn't cautious enough. If he hadn't appeared in time today, what would have happened if Xiang Jing Chen had taken advantage of her?
Thinking of this, Fu Yan Ting's expression became even uglier. It seemed he had to warn Yan Xi properly and tell her to stay away from Xiang Jing Chen in the future.
Yan Xi was still receiving an IV drip. She woke up and saw Fu Yan Ting. Yan Xi frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
"You don't want me here? Then who do you want here? Hmm?"
Fu Yan Ting looked at Yan Xi and spoke indifferently.
Yan Xi didn't see Xiang Jing Chen around and worried that Mr. Yao had discovered him. She had no mood to pay attention to Fu Yan Ting.
Seeing that Yan Xi was ignoring him and her mind was still on other men, Fu Yan Ting became even angrier.
"Yan Xi, don't forget, you are a married woman."
Yan Xi wasn't angry at first, but when Fu Yan Ting reminded her that she was a married woman, Fu Yan Ting himself?
When he was with Yan Xiao, didn't he remember that he was a married man?
Yan Xi's expression was extremely unpleasant, and she didn't want to talk to Fu Yan Ting. However, Fu Yan Ting had no intention of letting Yan Xi go.
Seeing that Yan Xi didn't answer, he couldn't help but frown and asked indifferently, "Which wild man are you thinking about?"
"Fu Yan Ting, can you stop calling Xiang Jing Chen a wild man? He's much better than you."
"What did you say?"
Fu Yan Ting hadn't expected that after they had been apart for only a few days, Yan Xi would now so righteously defend an outsider.
Fu Yan Ting's expression became even uglier. Looking at Yan Xi, Fu Yan Ting wished he could strangle her to death.
This woman was simply challenging his bottom line.
Yan Xi didn't want to stay in the hospital and wanted to return to the Yao family to find Xiang Jing Chen, but Fu Yan Ting didn't allow her to be discharged. Yan Xi pleaded bitterly, but he was unmoved. Yan Xi was helpless, and she was really worried about Xiang Jing Chen.
Under duress, Yan Xi had no choice but to be honest with Fu Yan Ting.
Yan Xi said indifferently, "Fu Yan Ting, can you stop being so sick? Xiang Jing Chen is just my cousin."
Hearing Yan Xi say this, Fu Yan Ting looked at her in confusion. Yan Xi knew she couldn't hide anymore. She took a deep breath, then explained, "Xiang Jing Chen's mother and my mother are sisters, but his mother died in an accident when he was young."
This was quite a shock to Fu Yan Ting. He never expected that Xiang Jing Chen's background would be so difficult.
After Yan Xi finished explaining, seeing that Fu Yan Ting's expression had softened slightly, Yan Xi proposed to return to the Yao family. Fu Yan Ting knew that Yan Xi was Mr. Yao's granddaughter, and even if Fu Yan Ting didn't take her back, Mr. Yao would send people to look for her.
Fu Yan Ting was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's go, I'll take you back to the Yao family."
Yan Xi didn't want Fu Yan Ting to accompany her to the Yao family. After all, the Yao family was very dangerous now. Yan Xi's mother was still at the Yao family, and there was the voice recorder. Yan Xi hadn't found the voice recorder yet, and she had many things to do, but Fu Yan Ting couldn't help her.
Fu Yan Ting accompanying Yan Xi back would only put them in danger.
Yan Xi didn't want to see this happen.
However, Fu Yan Ting was worried about the relationship between Yan Xi and Xiang Jing Chen and insisted on going back with Yan Xi.
Yan Xi was helpless and had to compromise.
When Yan Xi returned to the Yao family, she didn't see Xiang Jing Chen. Yan Xi couldn't help but worry if something had happened to Xiang Jing Chen.
Yan Xi took out her phone and called Xiang Jing Chen, but his call couldn't be connected.
Yan Xi became even more flustered. Just as she was about to go find Xiang Jing Chen's whereabouts, Mr. Yao suddenly came out. Seeing Yan Xi, Mr. Yao acted as if nothing had happened, looking at Yan Xi with a kind smile, and softly asked, "Xi Xi, where have you been? You didn't answer my calls. Your grandfather was very worried about you."
Hearing Mr. Yao say this, Yan Xi didn't know how to explain.
Fu Yan Ting pulled Yan Xi over and explained, "Sir, I'm sorry I forgot to tell you, Yan Xi has been with me all night."
Mr. Yao squinted his eyes and looked at Yan Xi with a scrutinizing gaze. The gaze made Yan Xi feel somewhat guilty.
After hearing Fu Yan Ting's explanation, Mr. Yao's expression suddenly became solemn. He glanced at Fu Yan Ting and said nothing, waiting until Fu Yan Ting left the Yao family.
Only then did Mr. Yao find Yan Xi and talk to her.
Yan Xi didn't know what Mr. Yao wanted to talk about. She was still looking for Xiang Jing Chen's whereabouts.
Mr. Yao said, "Xi Xi, your grandfather does not approve of you being with Fu Yan Ting."
Yan Xi thought Mr. Yao wanted to talk about something else. It turned out to be this. Yan Xi was stunned for a moment, then reacted. She looked at Mr. Yao and didn't explain anything.
Mr. Yao was silent for a moment, then said, "Fu Yan Ting's family background is very complicated. Our Yao family is not short of money. Your grandfather really doesn't want you to get involved in this turmoil."
"I understand, Grandfather."
Yan Xi didn't understand, but she still responded according to Mr. Yao's words.
Yan Xi didn't take Mr. Yao's words to heart. Her entire heart was worried about Xiang Jing Chen, wondering how he was.
Back in her room, Yan Xi collapsed on the bed and fell asleep at some point.
Yan Xi woke up again, disturbed by the ringing of her phone.
She thought Xiang Jing Chen had contacted her and quickly answered the phone, but the voice on the other end was unfamiliar.
"May I ask if you are Yan Xi?"
Yan Xi was stunned for a moment, took the phone, and saw that it was Yan Xiao's phone number. Yan Xi felt a vague sense of unease, always feeling that something had happened to Yan Xiao.
Although Yan Xi and Yan Xiao didn't have a good relationship, and Yan Xi didn't care about Yan Xiao's life or death, Yan Xi had a premonition that Yan Xiao died because of her.
"I am. May I ask who you are? Why are you calling me with Yan Xiao's phone?"
Yan Xi clenched her fists tightly, her heart in her throat. She tried her best to remain calm and asked indifferently.
