He took the car keys, opened the door, âI cleaned the dishes in the kitchen, you should go to sleep first.â
The dishes in the kitchen?
It was then that Rong Yan remembered she had come out to see if he had finished washing the dishes but seeing him looking like he was heading out, she forgot all about it.
âOkay, I got it,â she added another line, âThanks for the hard work.â
It was this last sentence that was key; the corners of the manâs mouth lifted slightly, leaving contentedlyâŠ

Kangfei Hospital.
Cui Jiangjing stood there with a look of having had a day from hell, while Fu Yi and Shen Siyuan were also present.
Shen Siyuan had a stern face, looking quite upset.
Only Fu Yi, with one hand pressed against his brow, looked at the two of them and asked, âWhat happened, how did your car happen to crash into Chu Xi?â
When he received the call, he thought he had heard wrong. He rushed to the hospital only to find out it was true.
Shen Siyuan was the first to speak, immediately laying all the blame on Cui Jiangjing, âItâs all because he wasnât watching the road while driving, always dangling around carelessly, distracted, thatâs why he caused trouble. How would I know how he crashed into someone? Iâm speechless.â
Cui Jiangjing hadnât intended to let her take responsibility, but hearing her desperate to absolve herself from it and frantically shifting blame, he felt a chill in his heart and said coldly, âItâs nothing, just me being careless, not noticing the traffic lights while driving, rear-ending her. Donât worry, it wonât happen again. These kinds of incidents will never occur a second time! As for how the Chu Family wants to handle it afterward, I donât care. Whatever needs to be done, Iâll take responsibility.â
Fu Yi detected the indifference in his tone and knew he was disheartened by Shen Siyuanâs instant shirking of responsibility. He disapprovingly looked towards the person who, after hearing his words, was biting her lip, still feeling wronged, âSiyuan, you were also in the car. Even if Jiangjing wasnât paying attention while driving, you should have reminded him. Itâs not like youâre completely blameless.â
Shen Siyuan too sensed Cui Jiangjingâs dismay towards her, her mouth moved slightly, she wanted to argue against Fu Yiâs judgment but ultimately didnât speak.
Seeing the two of them at odds, Fu Yi found it taxing and started feeling a throbbing pain at his temples. He broke the silence, âAlright, it was just an ordinary rear-ending, itâs not as serious as you think. You just did an examination on her, right? Itâs just a cut blood vessel on the side of her thigh, with quite a lot of bleeding. Itâll be fine once itâs stitched up. The Chu Family wouldnât go as far as to resort to violence over such a small matter.â
So in his view, Siyuanâs earlier hasty efforts to shift blame were indeed not very wise.
Jiangjing is a man who values loyalty, and even for the sake of Shen Yu, he would not allow a woman to take responsibility. Yet, she jumped out herself, insinuating through her words that others were to blame.
It was one thing for Jiangjing to disdain burdening a woman with responsibility, but for her to frenetically fear it falling on her own head and shove it onto Cui Jiangjing was quite another.
After this incident, the last bit of affection Jiangjing probably had in his heart for Siyuan may have just run out.
