Lu Shan called out Shen Xi’s name for a while, but Shen Xi remained unresponsive.

Shen Yan raised his eyes and saw Shen Xi tightly holding Gu Chen’s hand. His heart sank, and he coldly said to Gu Chen, “President Gu, I kindly request you to let go of my daughter’s hand.”

Gu Chen looked at Shen Yan and sighed, saying, “President Shen, I want to let go too, but Xi doesn’t want me to.”

Lu Shan looked at Gu Chen with a puzzled expression and tried to separate Shen Xi’s hand from Gu Chen’s, but just as Gu Chen had said, Shen Xi held onto his hand tightly and would not let go.

A doctor spoke up, “During the resuscitation, the patient also held onto this person’s hand. I suspect that when the patient is in a state of mental panic, holding onto something provides a sense of security. I recommend we maintain this for now. Forcibly separating them might cause the patient’s mental state to deteriorate.’

Upon hearing this, Shen Yan and his wife could not believe how things had come to this.

They had no choice but to keep things as they were due to Shen Xi’s current condition.

They settled Shen Xi in the hospital room, and Shen Yan and Lu Shan did not dare to leave because of Gu Chen’s presence.

Lu Fei and Shen Luan, upon learning of Shen Xi’s situation, rushed back in concern.

Just two hours ago, Shen Xi had told them she was going to the airport to pick up Guan Lei, so how did things turn out this way?

If they had known, they would never have left Shen Xi’s side.

Gu Chen’s gaze fell on the four people inside the hospital room who were ‘watching him warily. He found them rather amusing.

He might not be a saint, but when it came to Shen Xi, he had enough kindness left in him.

In this world, Shen Xi was the only person he refused to harm.

As long as she stayed by his side, nothing would happen to her, and she would be safe and sound.

“President Shen, have you found the person who harmed Xi? How dare they do this to her? They must be severely punished,” Gu Chen asked while holding Shen Xi’s hand.

“We’re still investigating. Rest assured; I won’t let anyone get away with harming Xi. Not one of them,” Shen Yan responded, his gaze firmly fixed on

Gu Chen.

Previously, Shen Xi had encountered Gu Chen at the mall before the attack.

This time, she had been injected with a neurological drug, and Gu Chen was again present.

It was almost too coincidental how it always seemed to be connected to Gu

Chen.

Thus, Shen Yan had to remain cautious.

At the hospital, Shen Yan and Lu Shan were on guard against Gu Chen, while on the other side, Guan Lei had just arrived at the villa from the airport.

Disheveled and exhausted from his journey, Guan Lei took out the gifts he had bought for Shen Xi and some local specialties, heading straight for the Shen family villa.

After ringing the doorbell a few times, the Shen family’s housekeeper asked the person outside, “Mr. Guan, are you here to see the young miss? She’s not at home.’

Guan Lei did not expect this and inquired, “Are her parents at home? I’ve brought some gifts for them.”

The housekeeper replied, “Mr. and Mrs. Shen are not at home either.”

Upon hearing this, Guan Lei decided to leave and planned to visit again when the Shen family returned.

As time passed, Guan Lei had cleansed himself of the dust and grime, but the Shen family members still had not returned.

Guan Lei began to feel uneasy. He decided not to wait any longer and made a voice call to Shen Xi.

Inside the hospital room, the sound of the voice call caught everyone’s attention, and their focus shifted to Shen Xi’s phone. Lu Shan eventually picked up the phone.

When she saw that it was Guan Lei calling, she glanced at Shen Xi, who was holding Gu Chen’s hand tightly, and then answered the call.

On the other end, Guan Lei’s voice sounded urgent, “Xi, I’m back. Where are you?”

Lu Shan sighed and said, ” Xi had an accident, she’s in the hospital now.”

Guan Lei, after a moment of shock, asked for the hospital’s address, and he arrived at the ward within ten minutes.

When Guan Lei saw Gu Chen and Shen Xi holding hands, a shadow crossed his face in an instant.

He walked over to Shen Xi and, in an icy tone, asked, “President Gu, what are you doing here? Isn’t your hand in a place it shouldn’t be?”
