At the fountain garden of the Shang Group, the wheelchair toppled to the ground.

Shang Yan stopped in his tracks when he passed by. The image of Qu Xiao sitting in the MPV in despair flashed in his mind, and his heart ached.

“Search for the surveillance video of the square and find all the onlookers who secretly took the video and photos.”

“Delete all the video and audio evidence they took. You can give a certain amount of compensation as hush money. I don’t want to see any news reporting about the Shang group and me tomorrow.”

Shang Yan instructed calmly and rationally. The butler silently nodded and noted it down.

“Put away the wheelchair and ask the repair workers to fix the flower beds in the square.”

Shang Yan said indifferently. He caught a glimpse of Qu Xiao following closely behind him from the corner of his eye and pretended not to see her.

The butler sensed the atmosphere and wanted to explain it for Qu Xiao several times.

Shang Yan suddenly looked at him sideways and said with a cold voice, “Is there anything else? Do you want to wait until the news and photos are published before you look for the Public Relations department to contact the media to revoke the report?” The butler was so scared that he immediately left the dangerous scene. At the same time, he waved his fist at Qu Xiao to cheer her on.

Qu Xiao was like a child who had done something wrong. She ran to Shang Yan’s side in small steps and dangled his clothes playfully.

“Let’s go to the hospital for a check-up, shall we?”

“Let’s wait until the results of the check-up are out before you get angry, OK? Even if you ignore me or live apart from me, I can accept it.”

Qu Xiao blinked her watery eyes. Shang Yan lowered his head and stared at her in surprise and dissatisfaction, feeling the frustration within him rising.

The delicate woman raised her arm to block Shang Yan. The tears that fell from Qu Xiao’s eyes broke all of Shang Yan’s defenses. He could only choose to compromise and follow her to the hospital.

When the private doctor saw Shang Yan, he was speechless for a long time and subsequently gave a thumbs up.

He praised Qu Xiao, “It was still you who have a way. You can actually let CEO Shang break through the psychological trauma in just a short day. Whether it was from a physiological or psychological point of view, CEO Shang is already a normal person.”

“Rehabilitate diligently in the future, and there won’t be any sequelae or complications.”

“Please rest assured!”

The doctor gave a definite answer, and Qu Xiao was finally relieved.

She squatted on the ground as her legs went weak, and she did not stand up for a long time.

Shang Yan lowered his eyes and looked at her. He raised his hand and wanted to rub her fluffy hair, but he withdrew his hand in the end.

On the way back from the hospital to the villa, Shang Yan received a call from the butler and assistant.

Public opinion had already been brought under control, and the world would not know about his situation. Shang Yan snorted twice and tilted his head to look out of the car window. Qu Xiao’s eyes shifted slightly, and she took the initiative to move over to hug Shang Yan’s arm. “Are you still angry?”

“It’s a good thing that you can stand up. Shall we celebrate?”

“I wanted to eat Japanese food some time ago. I found a pretty good club. Why don’t we take a look? It’s my treat!”

Qu Xiao wanted to coax Shang Yan, but she did not expect Shang Yan to be even angrier.

In a deep voice, he said to the driver, “Find a place to park the car and wait for me outside.”

The driver hurriedly braked and parked the car in a remote open space, standing with his back to the car.

Shang Yan took a deep breath to adjust his emotions and stared at Qu Xiao as he said, “Even till now, you still don’t know why I’m angry?”

“My legs have been crippled for many years! What does it matter if I continue to sit in a wheelchair for one or two days or one or two months?”

“My legs could already feel. Do you need to use your life to help me break through the psychological trauma? Qu Xiao! Do you know how scared I was back then?”

The blood vessels on Shang Yan’s neck bulged. He clenched his fists tightly, but he constantly reminded himself not to scare Qu Xiao.

Qu Xiao was stunned. She opened her mouth but was unable to speak.

“I’m afraid of losing you. I’d rather sit in a wheelchair for the rest of my life rather than live a life without you!”

Shang Yan, who had always been fearless, had a trembling voice. He widened his eyes to control his tears from falling. In the end, he could not control it and turned his head away. A stream of tears slid down the side of his face and fell on the back of Qu Xiao’s hand. It was hot and real.

Qu Xiao felt as if her heart was filled with warmth. She held Shang Yan’s face and took the initiative to kiss him.

Their lips lightly touched. It was a kiss with no lust, but it accurately conveyed their love for each other.

“I promise you. This is the last time. I was wrong!”

Qu Xiao lowered her head and hugged Shang Yan in her arms. She gently patted his back and said those touching words.

The light in the carriage was dim. Qu Xiao suddenly remembered something. She released Shang Yan’s shoulder and said with difficulty, “Can you let the doctor off? He only gave me a suggestion from the doctor’s perspective. I was the one who made the final decision. Aren’t you going a little overboard to transfer him to the emergency department?”

The private doctor specialized in serving VIP patients. His work was easy and comfortable. So, he was already used to such a leisure lifestyle.

However, Shang Yan instructed the hospital to transfer the doctor to another post in the afternoon.

“Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. It’s already merciful that I did not ask him to leave the hospital.”

Shang Yan stared at Qu Xiao gloomily and said with a deeper meaning, “It’s the same for you. Don’t think that things will be so easily forgotten!”
