Su Lianxi had only obtained his trust by coincidentally being present the moment Ning Yichen regained consciousness.
In fact, he even quickly fell in love with her.
Su Zhixi let out a radiant smile. “Yes. Three years ago, you selflessly pushed aside a girl who was about to get hit by a car but ended up getting run over instead. From then on, you became comatose and was in a vegetative state. There was no identification on you, nor did you have your phone. No one could contact your family. Fortunately, you had Su Lianxi. She sent you to the hospital and found ways to help you pay for your hospital fees. She even personally took care of you and allowed you to regain consciousness.”
Ning Yichen frowned. Her tone was a little strange, and it felt as though she was lamenting.
“So, Lianxi’s business is mine too.” He emphasized, “I won’t allow you to hurt her!”
Su Zhixi murmured, “I won’t hurt her. Since you love her, then I wish you happiness.”
Ning Yichen was stunned for a moment, seeming to not have expected her to be this amicable.
He got together with Su Lianxi soon after he’d regained consciousness but never had much interaction with this half-sister of hers. He felt that Su Zhixi must not be a good person from Su Lianxi’s numerous slips of the tongue.
Hence, when he heard that there was a possibility for her to take revenge on Su Lianxi, he did not even hesitate to come here to her hostel and wait for her just to give her a warning.
Su Lianxi had mentioned in the past that Su Zhixi would never skip class. Hence, he obtained her class schedule and surmised that she would return to the hostel in the afternoon and thereafter waited for her here. As expected, she arrived shortly after he did.
Alas, the result surprised him.
There was a little too much emotion in Su Zhixi’s eyes when she looked at him, which caused him to suspect whether or not he had missed anything. He grew up in the politically-involved Ning family and had seen far too many girls who approached him with motives. But Su Zhixi’s gaze baffled him.
Hence, he only gave her the cold shoulder.
However, since she did not intend to harm Lianxi, he would not make things hard for her either.
“Great.” He gave a light smile. “You’re welcome to attend when Lianxi and I get married.”
Su Zhixi tugged at her lips and nodded. “I will definitely attend.”
Giving her one last look, Ning Yichen turned around and left.
Su Zhixi stared at his back in a trance. Three years ago, she was in the same position, watching him selflessly save another.
However, even until this moment, Ning Yichen still did not know that the girl he saved was Su Lianxi.
Back then, after he was run over by a car, he lay in his own blood. Frightened, Su Lianxi thought he was dead and immediately fled home. She likely had not even told anyone about this even until now, but Su Zhixi had witnessed everything.
She stayed back and, with helpful bystanders, sent Ning Yichen to the hospital and even gathered enough money for the first hospitalization payment. However, she could not find any identification on him, nor could she contact his family.
Back then, she felt that the good should be rewarded.
Hence, she took it upon herself to take care of him, looking at it also as part of repaying his karma for Su Lianxi. She worked tirelessly to earn money for the hospitalization fees and would go to the hospital to take care of him whenever she had the time.
This lasted for three years. In those three years, she unknowingly fell in love with him. Back then, she still did not know his name, and so she called him “Ah Cheng.”
That whole time, Su Guoan and the rest of the family had known what she was doing, but no one had offered any help. Su Lianxi had even goaded her father to dock her allowance, but when Lin Shuyue and Su Lianxi realized that the man lying in the hospital might possibly be the politically-affiliated Ning family’s young master, they immediately chased her out of the hospital with a scheme in mind.
Coincidentally, Ning Yichen had regained consciousness at this point.
Hence, the first person he saw was Su Lianxi.
Hence, he believed Su Lianxi—that it was she who had taken care of him for the past three years.
Hence, they naturally got together.
Ludicrously, Su Lianxi still did not know that Ning Yichen was the benefactor whom she’d cast aside to die in his own pool of blood back then.
When Su Zhixi attempted to tell Ning Yichen the truth after that, she was halted by the latter the moment she tried to speak.
It was then that she finally stopped her struggle.
However, she did not expect that Su Lianxi never intended to let her off the hook. Su Lianxi had drugged her, wanting to ruin her and cut off any chance she could ever have.
It was fortunate that the person last night was Young Master He, causing Su Lianxi’s scheme to fail.
Su Zhixi subconsciously reached inside her handbag for the ointment tube.
She involuntarily smiled and her mood instantly improved.
