I Didn’t Expect You to Be So Vicious

"From the moment I woke up until now, you might as well have written 'perfunctory' across your face!"

The more Fu Hanjiang thought about it, the more aggrieved and angry he became. "If you don't want to take care of me, you can leave! I don't need this kind of unwilling companionship!"

He raised his arm slightly. "Go, leave now!"

His expression was dark and irritable.

Sheng Xiangsi frowned. She indeed was being perfunctory with him, but she couldn't admit it. And she definitely couldn't fall out with him at this moment.

She sat down on the edge of the bed and held his hand.

Fu Hanjiang was startled and tried to pull away.

"Don't be mad." Sheng Xiangsi used both hands to hold his, not letting go.

"I didn't realize a bowl of pear soup would make you so angry. I misunderstood. I was worried that if I left for too long, you'd be anxious when you woke up and didn't see me. So, I had the housekeeper make it. You like the food I make, don't you? I can make it for you every day in the future, okay?"

Is she telling the truth?

Fu Hanjiang scrutinized her.

She was clearly coaxing him, but he sensed a hint of deliberate distance and detachment...

You can feel if someone truly cares about you. It's not just words.

But to tell her to leave again... he couldn't do it. He couldn't bear it!

Fu Hanjiang's Adam's apple bobbed, and he remained silent.

"Don't be mad."

Sheng Xiangsi continued to coax him, picking up the spoon and scooping some pear soup. "This tastes good too. Let me feed you. Ah..."

"Ah..."

Fu Hanjiang, despite himself, opened his mouth.

Finally, having coaxed him into eating, Sheng Xiangsi took the bowl away and started organizing her belongings.

Fu Hanjiang lay in bed, watching her move in and out, busy and bustling, his gaze never leaving her.

Once she finished packing, Sheng Xiangsi took her phone and lay down on the sofa.

She didn't like playing games, so she opened a video app and picked a variety show to watch.

Fu Hanjiang didn't know what she was watching, but he could hear her laughing non-stop.

"Xiangsi." Fu Hanjiang called out to the woman on the sofa, frowning deeply. "Come over here."

Sheng Xiangsi moved her phone away. "Do you need water or the restroom?"

"Neither." Fu Hanjiang patted the spot beside him. "Come here, lie down with me. The sofa is too small and uncomfortable."

"I don't want to."

Sheng Xiangsi rejected him outright. "I'm fine here. Your bed is big, but you're covered in wounds. It wouldn't be good if I accidentally touched one."

She then picked up her phone again and resumed watching her show.

In that moment, Fu Hanjiang's anger reached its peak and he could no longer suppress it!

He suddenly threw off the blanket, gritted his teeth, got out of bed, and walked straight to the sofa.

Hearing footsteps, Sheng Xiangsi, puzzled, moved her phone away and saw the man, wrapped like a mummy, standing before her!

"Fu Hanjiang, you..."

She was so shocked she could barely speak. "What are you doing?"

With all those injuries, he could barely turn over, and now he's up?

"If you don't listen, I'll just have to come over and carry you."

Despite the pain, Fu Hanjiang's face was taut, and he bent down to pick her up.

"I want you to lie with me!"

"Fu Hanjiang!"

As her body was lifted, Sheng Xiangsi's eyes widened in fear, and she instinctively struggled. "Put me down!"

Was he out of his mind?

"Don't mess around! Your wounds will split open!"

"Let them split!"

Fu Hanjiang sneered, holding her as he walked to the bed, his face turning pale and cold sweat dripping.

"Ah!"

Sheng Xiangsi screamed as he placed her on the bed.

"Fu Hanjiang, let me see...mmph..."

She struggled to get up and check his wounds, but her mouth was covered!

Fu Hanjiang kissed her fiercely, deeply.

Then, he trailed kisses from her cheek down...

"Fu Hanjiang!"

Sheng Xiangsi broke out in a cold sweat. Did he want to continue? Was he insane?

She pushed him away but didn't dare use too much force. "Stop! Stop!"

"I won't."

Fu Hanjiang held her waist tightly with one arm and gently caressed her face with the other.

"Now will you pay attention to me? Will you look at me properly? I hate it when you're here but your mind and eyes are elsewhere! Do you know how much I hate it?"

"Mm..."

He lowered his head and kissed Sheng Xiangsi again.

His hand, which had been caressing her face, moved to her neck, deftly unbuttoning her shirt.

What was he going to do?

"!"

Sheng Xiangsi's spine stiffened, and her eyes widened. "Mmph..."

With her mouth covered, she couldn't speak.

No, this was not okay! Besides his injuries, this was a hospital room where anyone could come in at any time!

What should she do?

Even injured, Fu Hanjiang was much stronger than her!

In desperation, Sheng Xiangsi bent her knee, silently gathering strength, and then kicked out hard!

"Ugh!"

Her kick landed right on Fu Hanjiang's abdominal wound, causing him to immediately let go and fall away, landing heavily on the floor!

"Fu Hanjiang!"

Sheng Xiangsi immediately got up and saw him lying on the ground, curled up, his face pale.

"Fu Hanjiang! Are you okay?"

She jumped off the bed and knelt down, holding him.

"Heh, heh heh."

Fu Hanjiang, his face twisted in pain, cold sweat pouring down, forced a laugh.

"Xiangsi!"

He struggled to raise his hand and clasped hers tightly.

"It hurts! The wounds... they've split open..."

He didn't need to say it; Sheng Xiangsi could see it! Blood was seeping through several of his bandaged wounds!

"Are you crazy?"

Sheng Xiangsi closed her eyes, angrily shouting, "Is your brain injured too? Huh?"

Fu Hanjiang stared at her reddened eyes, his laugh growing more unrestrained. "Haha..."

The pain intensified, and he gripped her hand tighter. "Good, really good... You kept saying I did this for Yao Leyi... Now, it's not because of her, it's because of you!"

"?" Sheng Xiangsi was stunned, frozen in place.

He whispered in her ear, "See clearly, these wounds are because of you!"

Sheng Xiangsi shivered, her hair standing on end.

He was mad! Truly mad!

…

Fu Hanjiang's wounds had split open in several places, requiring him to be taken into surgery for re-stitching.

And because it was a second surgery, it was more complicated.

Sheng Xiangsi wasn't a primary relative, so the hospital notified Fu Hanjiang's brother, Fu Hanchuan, who had to come to sign the necessary paperwork.

Outside the operating room, Sheng Xiangsi sat quietly on a bench.

The sharp sound of high heels clicking on the floor grew louder and closer until it stopped.

"Sheng Xiangsi!"

Yao Leyi grabbed Sheng Xiangsi and glared at her, her eyes filled with rage. "You're so vicious! Even though I've never liked you, I didn't think you could be this cruel!"

Sheng Xiangsi remained silent, looking at her calmly.

"Hmph!"

Yao Leyi scoffed coldly. "You're just jealous, aren't you? Jealous that Hanjiang got hurt because of me!"

"So what? He cares about me this much! He'll care about me like this his entire life!"
