Chapter 255 Meeting Shen Xiner
Chapter 255 Meeting Shen Xiner
She took a deep breath before asking again, her voice softer this time, "Where is Gu Yechen."
"Dead."
There was a gasp in the room and the next second, He Xinyan had fainted.
Before her body could collapse back onto the back, Yi Qiansi ran over like a gust of wind and caught her upper body before it could fall down.
He furrowed his eyebrows together before slowly lowering her down onto the bed.
Then, he walked out of the room and locked the door.
---
The next time He Xinyan woke up was several hours later.
The lights inside the room were on and when she looked outside, she saw that the sky was dark. She woke up for several seconds already when the memory of what Yi Qiansi had told her before she fainted came back.
Her eyes widened slightly as she sat up on the bed and hugged herself with her arms.
He was lying to her. . . She didn't know what he was up to, but he had to be lying! How could Gu Yechen be dead?
The bombing. . . It had to be pretty bad. Her body was in such a horrible condition when she first woke up. However, she was alive. . . Gu Yechen had to be alive.
She closed her eyes as she began rocking back and forth hugging her knees close to her chest. The first time since she woke up, a tear rolled down her cheek.
However, after the first tear fell, she immediately wiped her eyes, stopping more from falling.
She had to trust in him! He had to be alive, and he would be looking for her. He would find her sooner or later! For sure!
He Xinyan took a deep breath and lifted the blanket up to her shoulders.
She looked out the window for a very long time, staring at the crescent moon hanging up in the sky. After a long time, she took a deep breath and decided to go back to sleep.
However, before she could, there was a click and the sound of the door being pushed open.
He Xinyan's eyes widened. Was it Yi Shao - Yi Qiansi? He had told him his name was Yi Qiansi. . . Not Yi Shao, which meant that he was lying to her.
She had many questions to ask him.
She sat up straighter and leaned forward slightly, anticipating him to walk in. However, he didn't. Instead, a woman walked in.
He Xinyan furrowed her eyebrows together as she stared at the woman's face, and the woman also stared at her.
The woman looked very familiar to He Xinyan, but she couldn't remember from where. Was it the worker she had seen while she was walking down the hallway a few days ago?
Or did they maybe meet the last time He Xinyan was here after the car accident?
"Who are you?" He Xinyan finally asked after several seconds.
The woman scoffed as she crossed her arms together, "You don't remember me?"
He Xinyan narrowed her eyes. Her "woman's natural sixth sense" told her that this woman standing across from her didn't like her.
But why? She didn't know.
The woman's eyes were filled with hatred as she stared at He Xinyan, almost as if she wanted to tear her face out.
He Xinyan studied the woman's face intently, trying to figure out who she was. They stared silently at each other for a long time, one with hatred and the other with confusion and curiosity.
After a long time, He Xinyan gasped as the face in front of her finally connected with a name she had long forgotten about.
"Shen Xiner?!"
The woman seemed to be quite pleased after finally hearing her name announced, but her eyes were still filled with anger and hatred, "You remember. Yes, I am Shen Xiner."
He Xinyan furrowed her eyebrows together, "What are you doing here?"
Shen Xiner got even more angry at the mention of this and she clenched her fists together, "This is all because of you, He Xinyan! You ruined my life! Because of you, I was forced to leave my parents and get sent to Country X. That's why I'm here!"
Her eyes softened slightly as she flipped her hair, "Luckily, I met Mr. Yi, and he saved me and brought me here. But even so! This is all because of you!"
He Xinyan frowned confusedly, not sure how to respond or deal with this crazy lady. This was when she wished there was a red button near her bed like in a hospital to call for help.
Because obviously. . . the woman across from her needed it right now.
He Xinyan opened her mouth to speak but Shen Xiner immediately cut her off.
She crossed her arms together and smirked, "He. . . Xin. . . Yan. . . So, what are you going to do now? Your beloved Gu Yechen is dead."
He Xinyan's face paled as all emotions in her face disappeared when she heard Shen Xiner's words. She was lying too.
He Xinyan's reaction only made Shen Xiner more excited and happy as she began laughing, "Hahahaha! He's gone! You are helpless now! Hahaha! Just wait! Just wait to be tortured by Qiansi!"
She continued to laugh like a maniac as she turned around and left the room, not forgetting to lock the door behind her.
He Xinyan stared at the empty room for several seconds before scrunching her face up in bed and laying back down onto her bed.
As she laid in the darkness for a while, memories of Shen Xiner slowly began to come back inside her mind.
It seemed like she hadn't changed in the slightest. . . Still stupid.

The next morning, she woke up early in the morning before the sun was even up.
She stared blankly at the wall for who knows how long, and she finally experienced what truly was a boring life. All she could do now was stare at the wall, sleep, eat, and wait for someone to come.
She had no way out and nothing to do.
She watched the sunrise and after the sun was fully out, the door opened.
Yi Qiansi walked in with a golden tray in his hands that had breakfast on it.
He Xinyan glanced at him and didn't give any other reaction to his arrival. He didn't seem to care as he smiled and placed the tray onto the table.
"Good morning," his voice was deep and cold as a maid pulled a chair in and he sat down near the bed, elegantly folding his legs together.
He was wearing a burgundy suit that really brought out the bright and pale color of his skin and his eye-catching silver hair.
He Xinyan didn't respond as she grabbed the tray and began eating her breakfast.
Yi Qiansi patiently watched her eat for a long time, and waited until she had finished her meal before finally speaking again.
"You have quite a good appetite, don't you."
He Xinyan placed the tray back down onto the table and laid down to sleep, completely ignoring Yi Qiansi.
Instead of getting mad, Yi Qiansi chuckled softly, "Why are you ignoring me? It makes me sad."
He pressed his lips out and actually looked like a sad child as he crossed his fingers together. However, He Xinyan didn't see this as her eyes were closed.
After another few minutes, Yi Qiansi took a deep breath, "Come in."
He Xinyan opened her eyes when she heard the sound of footsteps and she looked up curiously to see a man wearing a white cloak walk in.
It was obvious that he was a doctor.
He placed the briefcase he was holding in his hand onto the floor and pulled out several medical equipments.
"The doctor will give you a medical check-up," Yi Qiansi explained.
He Xinyan stared at the doctor for several seconds, almost as if she was testing to see if the doctor was legit or not.
In the end, she sat up straight on the bed, leaning back against the headboard. As of now, her health was the most important. As long as she was healthy, everything else could be possible.
She cooperated with all of the doctor's procedures, which included several steps and even a few blood draws, and asked him how her condition was. However, he didn't say anything.
Instead, he looked towards Yi Qiansi and nodded his head before leaving the room.
He Xinyan gawked at the two of them, "Um. . . Is he not going to tell me how I am doing?"
Yi Qiansi chuckled softly at He Xinyan flabbergasted expression, which seemed a little cute, "Don't worry. If there is something wrong, I will let you know."
He then stood up and looked down at her, "I will come and visit you again soon. Rest and eat well."
He turned around to leave but He Xinyan quickly stopped him.
"What are you doing with me here? What do you want from me?"
Yi Qiansi stopped for a second and licked his lips, "What do you think?"
He Xinyan was silent for a few seconds, "I don't think we know each other. . . right? So what are you using me for?"
Yi Qiansi turned around and grinned, "You are indeed quite smart. . . and likable."
Then, he left the room, ignoring the questions and calls He Xinyan made.
After he left the room, he walked down the palace slowly until he came to a stop in front of his office room. When he walked in, the doctor was standing near the door.
"Master Yi." The doctor bowed down upon seeing Yi Qiansi.
"How is she?" The amused and playful expression Yi Qiansi carried on his face disappeared and was replaced with coldness.
The doctor followed Yi Qiansi over to his desk and gulped, "Well. . . there might be a problem. . ."
