Chapter 12 : How Heavy is His Desire for Revenge

• "I really don't understand how you managed to walk into a car!"
• Cen Nian cut a well-peeled apple into small pieces and put them into a bowl. She picked up one of the pieces with a toothpick and handed it over to Su Yi.
• Su Yi took the bowl and stuffed the apple pieces into her mouth one by one. "The car's headlights were broken, and I didn't have time to get them fixed!"
• "The car's headlights may be broken, but there are streetlights. I think you were just absent-minded while walking. Why didn't you go home and sleep at this late hour? What were you doing outside?"
• Su Yi glared at Cen Nian irritably. "You're becoming more and more like AK, always nagging about every little thing!"
• "Little thing? You dare to call this a little thing? If the car had swerved a bit more, your leg would have been amputated... No, I have to call AK and let him teach you a lesson..."
• "Hey, hey, please don't..." Su Yi snatched Cen Nian's phone and held it close to her chest. "AK is already taking care of Coco, it's hard for him. Don't bother him."
• Cen Nian snorted. "And you say I'm the one who nags?"
• "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. You're not nagging, you're just being economical with your words. Each word is worth a thousand gold coins, alright?"
• Cen Nian rolled her eyes and muttered to herself. She took back her phone and spared Su Yi for the time being.
• "That woman we met in the corridor just now, who is she? She's quite attractive!"
• Su Yi rolled her eyes at Cen Nian and said irritably, "Forget it, she's already married and has children!"
• "She became a mother at such a young age, I couldn't tell. Her figure is still so good..."
• Su Yi threw a fruit core at Cen Nian, hitting her. "That's vulgar!"
• Cen Nian caught the fruit core and skillfully threw it into the trash can in a basketball-like motion. Su Yi suddenly asked her while eating fruit, "Who gave you your name?"
• "My dad. When my mom was giving birth to me, my dad wasn't at home. It was a kind-hearted taxi driver who took my mom to the hospital. My dad wanted to thank him and gave him many gifts, but he didn't want them. My dad felt satisfied and decided to name me Nian, to remind himself that my life was saved by that taxi driver. There are still many good people in the world, and we should repay society as much as we can. That's probably the meaning behind it. Why do you ask?"
• "There's a kid with the same name as you, also called Nian Nian."
• Cen Nian frowned. "I don't go by Nian Nian, I go by Cen Nian. I'm not that childish!"
• Cen Nian chatted with Su Yi for a while, checked the time, and saw that Su Yi's condition had improved. The doctor said she could be discharged after ten minutes, but it had already been half an hour and the doctor hadn't come yet.
• A nurse passed by the door, and Cen Nian called out to her, "Where's the doctor we're waiting for? He said he would come and sign the discharge papers!"
• "The doctor was called away by a pediatric patient's family member. He should be back soon!"
• "A pediatric patient's family member called a doctor from the orthopedic department? That's quite a stretch!"
• The nurse smiled. "There might be some orthopedic issues they wanted to consult about. It's not uncommon. How about this, let me find another doctor who has the authority to sign the papers on behalf of the doctor!"
• Cen Nian wasn't particularly handsome, but she had a special charm that made her get along well with everyone. Before the doctor returned, the nurse helped arrange for another doctor to sign the discharge papers for Su Yi.
• On the way back, Su Yi sat in Cen Nian's car. Cen Nian took the initiative to bring up the abandoned fantasy drama.
• "...How can I keep you away from Li Shengjue? He's so vengeful. Once he found out that you were involved in that drama, he would rather lose money than continue investing. He's a ruthless man!"
• Su Yi looked out the window at the passing scenery in silence. When you hate someone, everything they do is wrong.
• "...From now on, you're not allowed to wander around at night. After dinner, just stay at home. I'm going abroad tomorrow, so if you need anything, call my assistant. As for that drama, I think it's better to forget about it. You don't need the money anyway..."
• Cen Nian dropped Su Yi off at home and wanted to call a nanny for her, but Su Yi refused.
• Su Yi went upstairs, turned on her computer, and logged into "Flowing Light." She browsed through the information on the website and then went to bed.
• After tossing and turning all night, she was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep until evening.
• The room was pitch black without the lights on. She heard a knocking sound on the door, but still half-asleep, she thought it was the door of the neighboring room and didn't pay much attention. She leaned against the headboard with her eyes closed, allowing her consciousness to wake up. The knocking sound became clearer and clearer, and she suddenly opened her eyes, realizing that someone was knocking on her door.
• She put on a coat and slippers, walked to the door, and asked, "Who is it?"
• The knocking stopped, and there was silence outside.
• She furrowed her brows, feeling alert. She picked up a baseball bat behind the door and lowered her voice, "Who's outside? Why aren't you speaking?"
• "Open the door, it's me!"
• Su Yi was stunned for a few seconds. Li Shengjue??
• She opened the door a crack, and a strong hand reached in, widening the gap. Li Shengjue took the opportunity to enter.
• "You came..."
• Su Yi didn't even get a chance to ask her question when Li Shengjue suddenly lowered his head, grabbed her waist with both hands, and kissed her forcefully.
