Chapter 258 You know everything?
"Yan Yan."
Su Yiran patiently explained, "Some things can't be explained. My coming here this time was purely accidental, but I genuinely like Yan Yan, I..."
"you do not like me."
Shen Yan shook her head as she listened to her words. "I know you don't like me. You even said last time that I'm too calculating... I am indeed calculating, but I can't help it. Over the years, many girls have gotten close to my brother, all of them coveting the power and money I give him. None of them really care about him. He has had a very hard time these past years. I just want him to find a girl who truly cares for him. Is that not allowed?"
I like my older sister because, unlike other women who only try to please my brother, she's good to me.
"But Yan Yan is wonderful. Not just me, everyone else would like her too."
Su Yiran said, "Your brother is a good person. He will definitely meet a girl who treats him sincerely in the future."
"But doesn't my sister like Yan Yan? What if the girl who really likes my brother doesn't like me in the future?"
As Shen Yan spoke, her eyes reddened, and she sniffed, "I know I'm a burden, I..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by 'burden'? Yan Yan has never been a burden. If you say such things again, your older sister will get angry."
"Sister, I'm sorry, I won't say it anymore, please don't be angry."
……
Su Yiran coaxed Shen Yan to sleep, and it was already dawn.
She opened the door and saw Gu Jing standing outside.
"lady."
Su Yiran carefully closed the door, turned to look at Gu Jing, frowned as she looked at the gauze in his hand, and asked softly, "How did you get hurt? What happened?"
"There was a minor accident, but I'm fine."
Gu Jing looked at her limping leg and the injuries on her face, and said, "It's you, you're injured. I've already contacted the master, but the person inside is..."
"She is Shen Yi's younger sister."
Su Yiran said, "Jingdong's sixth uncle suddenly made a move, so I had no choice but to bring her here. I didn't expect you to be here too."
"You know Shen Yi?"
"...We know each other, you know Shen Yi?"
Gu Jing said, "He collaborated with you a few years ago."
"..."
Su Yiran raised an eyebrow.
Gu Yanli's business scope is quite wide; he even has collaborations with the West Market.
"Is Ayan in Xishi now?"
"Yes."
No wonder.
Shen Yi had previously asked her what her relationship was with the Gu family in Kyoto.
They must have heard some news.
Su Yiran met Gu Yanli two hours later.
Shen Yan's wound suddenly became infected and she developed a high fever, so they immediately took her to the hospital.
Su Yiran was worried about Shen Yan's condition and stayed by the door of the ward. As soon as she saw the doctor come out, she ran over to ask, "Doctor, how is she now?"
The doctor said, "The wound is quite serious. It wasn't treated in time, and now it's infected, causing a high fever. We'll need to observe it for a while longer."
"Thank you doctor."
Su Yiran thanked him and was about to go into the ward to see Shen Yan when she was caught by Gu Yanli behind her. "Where are you going!"
The man's voice was deep, his brows furrowed as he looked at the injuries on her legs and face, and even some unseen ones. "Aren't you going to treat your own injuries?"
"I am fine."
Su Yiran said, "Yan Yan is not in a good state. She will be very sad if she can't see me."
"I don't care what happens to her, but you need to treat her wounds now."
Gu Yanli was already very displeased, and Su Yiran had no choice but to treat her wounds.
At first, Gu Yanli couldn't see the wound because of the clothes covering it. But when the clothes were lifted, the scabs that had been chapped had already split open after being handled for a while, and because they weren't treated in time, they had even become infected.
The man's face was extremely pale, but he didn't say anything. He just silently watched the nurse treat the wound until only the two of them were left in the ward.
"Ayan."
Su Yiran knew Gu Yanli was angry, so she could only cautiously tug at his clothes, "Are you angry?"
Gu Yanli looked at her, displeased. "Is this what you mean by 'nothing's wrong'?"
"...Well, I don't know either."
Su Yiran felt a little guilty and muttered to herself, "It's all fine now, it's all been dealt with."
"you--"
Sometimes Gu Yanli was so angry with her that he wanted to hang her up and beat her.
He was helpless; he had no way to deal with her.
"I heard from Gu Jing that she is Shen Yi's sister?"
"Yes."
Su Yiran nodded.
"How did you know each other?"
"...It's a long story...After I got on the bus, I smelled a certain odor, and then I vaguely passed out. When I woke up again, I found myself in the bus with two human traffickers. Then one of the traffickers sold me to Shen Yi. Do you know how much I'm worth?"
Su Yiran got angry as soon as this was mentioned. "One million, Ayan, in their eyes I'm only worth one million. Am I that worthless? They should at least ask for ten million. Ayan, do you think I'm right?"
"..."
Gu Yanli listened to her words and smirked, "You're starting to complain now?"
"How could I not be disgusted? They sold me for a million, which is clearly a losing deal. Those two human traffickers really don't know what they're missing!"
"..."
Gu Yanli was speechless after Su Yiran's antics.
"Su Yiran, with such a big incident, can't you be more mindful? You're just fixated on this one million."
"This isn't a big deal!"
Su Yiran twitched the corner of her mouth, "Then why don't you ask Shen Yi if he did anything to me?"
"..."
Gu Yanli stared at her without saying a word.
"You all know?"
“…What Jingdong did was quite significant, and it couldn’t be kept secret any longer. Shen Yi had a falling out with them a couple of days ago, and he’s still being held in custody.”
"what?"
Su Yiran was shocked. "Shen Yi has been detained by Uncle Liu from Jingdong? Isn't he very powerful? How come he's been detained?"
"No matter how powerful Shen Yi is, his power is only limited to this area. The one in the east of the border has cooperation with the neighboring country's forces, so he can't gain any benefits in the east of the border."
"Will Sixth Uncle hurt Shen Yi?"
Su Yiran blurted out, but as soon as she said it, she saw the man's face darken. She quickly explained, "That's not what I meant. I'm not worried about Shen Yi, but about his sister. If something happens to him, his sister will be unhappy again."
"Ah!"
Gu Yanli chuckled lightly, "You don't need to explain these things to me. Whether you're worried about her or not is none of my business. After all, I'm used to people like you who are fickle."
