Yin Rongan was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding warm ginger soup in both hands. When he saw Shen Jiayao coming over, he raised his lips and smiled at him. However, his eyes touched Lu Xixin behind him, and his eyes suddenly became cold.
"Jia Yao." Yin Rongan glanced at Lu Xixin and said, "Aren't you curious about how I fell into the lake?"
Shen Jiayao's expression changed, and then he said calmly: "The road near the lake is slippery, and it was dark, so I must have been careless."
Hearing this, Yin Rongan pursed his lips and tightened his grip on the cup.
She understood the implications of Shen Jiayao's words and knew in her heart that he was hinting to her not to be suspicious and to characterize the incident as an accident.
However, Yin Rongan was unwilling to give in.
Why, why did he subconsciously protect Lu Xixin without even pursuing the truth? Is she so good?
Yin Rongan insisted on saying something and setting up a barrier between them.
"I blame myself, I was too careless." Yin Rongan laughed at himself, and then suddenly coughed.
She coughed so hard that her whole body was shaking, as if she was coughing out her heart and lungs.
Yin Rongan's cough problem started when he was a child. Because Shen Jiayao was playful, he fell into the water. He knew how to swim at the time, but the water was too cold and his feet suddenly cramped. He couldn't swim up and his body kept sinking.
It was Yin Rongan who jumped down and rescued him.
Since then, Yin Rongan has suffered from a cough that cannot be cured. It was better when he was a child and not that serious, but the older he gets, the worse his cough becomes.
Especially in recent years, I almost always cough when the weather gets cold.
Shen Jiayao's eyes were worried, but more of a look of guilt.
He hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Xixin, with a slight pleading in his tone: "Xixin, let Sister An take a look, okay?"
Lu Xixin nodded and reached out to feel Yin Rongan's pulse, but he hadn't touched her yet.
Yin Rongan seemed to be frightened, his body trembled violently: "Don't touch me."
She stepped back suddenly, her eyes frightened: "Don't push me!"
There was a moment of stillness in the room.
After a while, Yin Rongan seemed to realize that he had overreacted, and reluctantly said: "Sorry, I thought it was by the lake."
This is interesting.
Lu Xixin raised her eyes and glanced at her lightly.
Not to be outdone, Yin Rongan raised his eyes slightly and looked back as if demonstrating.
Since Jia Yao didn't let her say anything and wanted to characterize the matter as an accident, she would follow his wish and admit that she accidentally fell into the water.
However, admitting it verbally does not mean that it is the reality.
Say half a sentence and leave half a sentence, so as to create suspicion, it will arouse more suspicion.
Yin Rongan didn't believe that Lu Xixin could endure such a frame-up, both overt and covert.
She will definitely retort and say that it was not her who pushed her.
Yin Rongan was waiting for her to say this. As soon as she said it, he would immediately lower his eyes and then deny it, saying that it was not her who pushed it.
At that time, her weakness and pitifulness formed a sharp contrast with Lu Xixin's strength and arrogance.
Jiayao will definitely believe her more.
Lu Xixin was raised by Grandpa Li since she was a child. Grandpa Li was once the top figure in the power pyramid.
Lu Xixin could see through such clumsy tricks at a glance.
There are many ways to crack it.
But she was unwilling to waste a single minute on Yin Rongan.
The best way to deal with such people is to ignore them.
Lu Xixin ignored Yin Rongan at all, but looked at Shen Jiayao and stated lightly: "You saw it. It's not that I don't want to show it to her, but that she doesn't want to let me see it."
After saying that, he sat back on the sofa calmly.
