"What do you think of me? You think I'm incompetent?" Gu Lichen raised his eyebrows.

Zhong Keke's face turned even redder, and she quickly changed the subject, "You...how is your injury? Does it still hurt?"

"Fortunately, it doesn't hurt much." He said, looking at her red face, he sighed and said, "Also, you don't need to pay attention to what my mother just said."

"Huh?" She looked at him blankly.

"Since it was your decision to break up, I respect your decision, and you don't need me to think about why you blocked this knife." He said, even though he wanted to keep her by his side.

, wants to take care of her, protect her, and even feels that she is the only woman who can drag him out of the emotional mud.

But...he still wanted to respect her decision.

He didn't want to force her, let alone see her tears.

"Okay, I understand..." Zhong Keke said dryly, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

Obviously he was willing to respect her decision, and she should be happy, but at this moment, she couldn't be happy at all, and even... she felt sad.

Gu Lichen still needed to be hospitalized for 2 days, so Zhong Keke also continued to stay in the hospital.

Zhou Xinmian, on the other hand, did some tests after waking up. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he could be discharged from the hospital. However, before being discharged, Zhou Xinmian came to Gu Lichen's ward.

Always be grateful to your savior.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for saving me yesterday." Zhou Xinmian said.

"It was Keke who saved you, I was just helping Keke." Gu Lichen said.

"Hey, no matter what, you and Coco are my lifesavers." Zhou Xinmian said. She didn't expect that she would cause such a big disturbance just because she drank wine yesterday.

"By the way, Xin Mian, do you know the woman who came to chat with you at the bar yesterday?" Zhong Keke asked.

"I don't know. I didn't know that woman would do such a thing, but didn't you say that I was taken out of the bar by this woman? Why was it that in the hotel later, there was a man in the room?" Zhou Xinmian asked doubtfully.

"It is a gang organization that specializes in finding a single woman in a bar, and then attacks it. It will also take various videos and photos, and then threaten and extort them afterwards. Many women have fallen victim to this, but because of the privacy concerns

, so these women are often unwilling to call the police." Gu Lichen said.

"How did you know?" Zhong Keke was surprised.

"There is already news from the police. I just knew it earlier. Miss Zhou will probably inform the police soon," Gu Lichen said.

Zhong Keke didn't expect that Gu Lichen would know the police's investigation results so quickly while he was in the hospital.

After chatting for a few more words, Zhou Xinmian said, "Then I'll go back first. Keke, please take good care of Mr. Gu. You can wait for a few days on work matters. There's no rush!"

As he said this, he also winked, which made Zhong Keke feel embarrassed.

After his friend left, Zhong Keke looked at Gu Lichen, "Um... do you want to eat an apple? I'll peel it for you."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then," he said.

"It won't be troublesome." She said quickly, took out an apple from the fruit basket on the side, washed it first, and then used a small fruit knife to peel the apple bit by bit.
