The seemingly calm conversation between the two was actually filled with a faint smoke of gunpowder. Jiang Lan couldn't feel it, but felt that the atmosphere in the air was a bit depressing.

Lu Jingchi didn't say anything for a while, and Pei Qingsheng turned to herself and said to Jiang Lan, "Look, he admitted it. Lan Lan, remember, I will be your brother from now on."

Jiang Lan glanced at Lu Jingchi on the bed. He used to always say that he was her brother, so what is he now?

After a while, seeing that Lu Jingchi still didn't refute, Pei Qingsheng said: "Okay Lanlan, then you can stay here. Director Lu seems to be in great need of someone to take care of him now."

Jiang Lan panicked. She didn't know how to get along with Lu Jingchi now, and she didn't know what identity she should adopt. She subconsciously grabbed Pei Qingsheng's sleeve.

This action brought the atmosphere in the ward to freezing point again.

Pei Qingsheng's smile was particularly bright. He deliberately touched Jiang Lan's head in front of Lu Jingchi, "What's wrong? Didn't you come here? Why don't you want to stay here now that you've seen her?"

Jiang Lan pursed her lips. She did want to see Lu Jingchi, but it was not this Lu Jingchi she wanted to see.

The purpose of her coming here was just to hear what Pei Qingsheng said and... to witness the changes in Lu Jingchi.

Pei Qingsheng pulled out her sleeves and said, "Okay, stay with him here. If you leave with me, some people will be so angry that they will pull out my tongue."

His words were insinuating what happened yesterday and Lu Jingchi's bold behavior.

Lu Jingchi said nothing from beginning to end, quietly watching his performance.

After Pei Qingsheng finished her performance, she turned around and walked out, leaving Jiang Lan at a loss.

When Lin Zheng saw this, he wisely walked out, leaving space for the two of them.

Jiang Lan pinched the corner of her clothes with her fingers hanging by her side, and was silent for a while before she mustered up the courage to look at him.

When she looked up, she found Lu Jingchi staring straight at her, like Lang staring at his prey, which made Jiang Lan's spine tingle.

"Come here." Lu Jingchi suddenly said.

Jiang Lan stiffened for a moment, lowered his head, walked over, and stood in front of him.

Lu Jingchi looked at her for a few seconds before asking, "Don't you remember what happened yesterday?"

Jiang Lan nodded honestly. If you look at the calendar on her phone, she has forgotten not only what happened yesterday, but what happened six or seven years ago.

Lu Jingchi's tense expression softened slightly.

He held Jiang Lan's wrist, pulled her hand over, and looked at the gauze wrapped in her palm.

"Does it hurt?"

Jiang Lan nodded, then shook his head.

Lu Jingchi patted the empty seat next to him. Jiang Lan hesitated for two seconds and sat down next to him.

She raised her head slightly and peeked at Lu Jingchi's face from the corner of her eye.

This mature and steady face was far different from the face in her memory.

But because of the hospital gown he was wearing today, he looked quite haggard, and his broken hair hung in front of his forehead, softening his facial features and making him look less intimidating.

So much so that Jiang Lan was not so afraid of him.

Lu Jingchi asked: "What did Pei Qingsheng tell you?"

Jiang Lan was startled again. Only now did she know that the man's surname was Pei, but why was it different from her own?

Lu Jingchi pinched her chin with his fingers and raised his face, "What did you say?"

Jiang Lan was silent, raised her hands and gestured, telling Lu Jingchi what Pei Qingsheng had just said to her.

After Lu Jingchi read it, he let out a sneer.

Jiang Lan looked at him puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

Lu Jingchi held her face with his fingers and said in a much gentler tone: "Since I forgot, let's get over it. As for Pei Qingsheng, let's treat him as an advantage for this day."
