Chapter 23: Settling the Accounts

  Actually, Ye Anning is not as indifferent as she said. She's very afraid and panicked that she'll really become a cripple. She's afraid that in the future, she can only use crutches or a wheelchair, how can she still stand on the podium? She won't be able to practice taekwondo anymore.

  Dad will definitely say she's a waste of money, Ye Mingzhu and Qiao Yun will definitely laugh to death, and Shen Yicheng... Will he be glad that he has already dumped her?

  Ye Anning felt increasingly sad, and tears began to flow uncontrollably. The hospital room door suddenly swung open, and she thought it was Tian Xinnian returning, but if Sweetheart saw her like this, she would definitely feel even more guilty.

  Ye Anning hastily turned her head to one side, busily wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes. Her voice didn't reveal any unusual tone, "Oh dear, how did you come back? Didn't I tell you to go make some delicious food for me?"

  Ye Anning shouted and found that no one responded to her, turned her head and looked, couldn't help but widened her eyes, who is this person wearing a white coat with a playful face in front of her!!!!

  "How did you get in here!" Ye Anning was so frightened that she almost jumped out of bed, her body retreated backward in a defensive posture. This can't be happening, she had just escaped from the gates of hell and this person showed up at her doorstep. "I'm warning you, get out quickly or I'll call for help."

  Pei Jun stood by the bed and teased her with a glance at the unerased wetness in the corner of her eyes, "Isn't it said that it's nothing, but you're still limping?"

  As soon as Ye Anning saw the smile at the corner of his mouth, she felt a chill all over her body. How did he end up here? Suddenly, a familiar movie plot appeared in her mind - the Qiu family disguised themselves as doctors and snuck into the hospital to commit murder!

  Ye Anning was getting more and more frightened, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Someone, save me!!!!!!"

  Pei Jun furrowed his brow, his eardrums battered, the corridor echoed with panicked footsteps. The little nurse rushed over at the sound, thinking something had happened, and pushed open the door to see Pei Jun standing beside the bed, momentarily stunned. "Dr. Pei, what's wrong?"

  "It's okay, she can't accept the fact of her leg injury, you bring her the medicine she needs for today."

  The little nurse nodded hastily and left.

  Ye Anning's mouth opened into an "O" shape, "Pei, Doctor Pei?"

  The room was once again left with just the two of them, Pei Jun's mouth curved up, slowly lowering his body, his arms propped on either side of her, completely enveloping her in his breath. "Do you still remember what I said last time at the restaurant?"

  There was no hospital smell of disinfectant on his body, but a refreshing minty scent instead. Underneath the white coat, he wore a crisp white dress shirt with a wingtip collar, giving off an air of serenity that put people at ease. His skin was smooth and flawless, and his facial features were not particularly striking, yet when combined together, along with the mischievous smile playing on his lips, it left one feeling dizzy.

  But all these were not what Ye Anning should focus on now. She racked her brains to think about what he had said in the restaurant?

  "You'd better pray you don't fall into my hands!"

  "I'm waiting for the day when you fall into my hands voluntarily!"

  Ye Anning's pupils suddenly contracted, and Pei Jun knew she must have remembered. Her body pressed down even lower, savoring the rare sight of her terrified expression. His scorching breath sprayed onto her face as he asked again, "So do you still remember what else you said at the restaurant?"

  Ye Anning's heart skipped a beat as the harsh words she had let go of earlier echoed loudly in her ears.

  "Watch out! You should pray that you don't fall into my hands, I'm warning you, perverts get this treatment. Next time if I see you again, I'll cut you off! Today, I'm being generous and treating it as if I was bitten by a dog, but next time won't be so easy to talk to."

  Pei Jun looked at her with satisfaction, seeing the fine hairs standing on end on her face. He slowly got up, collecting all expressions from his face and replacing them with an aura of danger emanating from his entire body. "Very good, it seems you've remembered everything now. Shall we settle the accounts then?"
