Chapter Twenty-Six: Maybe He Would Care About Her Hurt?
er hand in his palm. The curve of his lips grew wider as he enclosed her hand in his, lightly scratching her back with his index finger.Such intimacy was too unfamiliar for Xiang Wan. She frowned slig..."You're all so proactive. Why don't you take the manager position" Meng Lan raised her captivating eyes and smiled as she scanned the crowd.
Everyone fell silent, heads bowed in shame and fear to speak.
Menglan's gaze fell on Lin Tianting's blood-stained face, she let out a sneer and turned her head to look at Xiang Wan, "You beat someone like this, deduct three months of your wages as medical expenses for her. Any objections"
"No." Xiang Wan lowered her head, a sheen of sweat in her palm, afraid it wasn't just a three-month salary deduction, but some other punishment.
"Just deduct three months' salary from her" Lin Tiantian stopped crying and shouted sharply, "Lan Jie, I don't accept this! She beat me like this, deducting only three months' salary is too cheap for her, I want..."
"What do you want" Menglan interrupted her with a smirk.
Lin Tiantian was as if someone had choked her throat, her face flushed red and she couldn't speak for a long time. Blood trickled down the wound on her head, terrifying yet oddly comical.
"Send Lin Tianting to the hospital with two people, and everyone else just disperse." Menglan said with a smile.
The crowd surged, pushing and shoving as two women reluctantly stepped forward to accompany Lin Tianting to the hospital. The rest returned to their respective dormitories.
Meng Lan walked past Xiang Wan into the dormitory, looking at the blood on the ground and laughing, "Quite ruthless, huh."
Wanye's heart skipped a beat. Her hand, which was dangling by her side, clenched into a fist, then loosened just as quickly. "Um," she mumbled.
"Tell me, why did you hit Lin Tianting" Menglan sat on the edge of the bed, raised her willow eyebrows, and without waiting for a reply, continued, "Forget it, don't say it, I'm not interested in hearing it either."
She took out two tubes of ointment from her bag and casually threw them to Xiangwan.
"Or what" Meng Lan stretched, supporting her chin with one hand and smiling, "Who do you want it to be CEO He"
"No...no." Xiang Wan's face flushed, looking flustered and embarrassed. "Thank you, Meng Lanjie. How much is the medicine I'll pay you."
Mulan is He Hanchuan's person. She even thought these ointments were his intention... She was really delusional. He wished she would use her wretched life to compensate Jiang Qingran, so how could he possibly care about her injuries
"No need, I don't have much money anyway." Menglan got up, avoiding the blood on the ground, and walked out gracefully.
Wanye dragged her leaden legs behind her, suddenly asking in a low voice, "Dreamland sister, can I ask you a question"
Meng Lan stopped her steps, turned around, and raised an eyebrow at her.
"Mr. He has said, when can I leave this place" Xiang Wan licked her dry lips, the eyes that were always filled with weariness and vicissitudes for the first time flickered with a tiny spark.
"No." Menglan brushed her hair behind her ear, every move exuding alluring charm. "Mr. He probably hasn't thought about this."
Never thought about this question, that is to say, would I have to stay here my whole life to atone for Jiang Qingran
The flame in Xiang Wan's eyes extinguished, she stood under the bright lights, but couldn't see the way ahead.
Her life was shrouded in a gray haze, no matter which path she chose, she always ended up standing on the edge of a precipice, only able to gaze into the abyss.
"Ugh..." Xiang Wan trembled as she took a deep breath, wiping away the tears that had somehow escaped her eyes at some point. She returned to the dormitory in a daze.

A week flew by in the blink of an eye.
Lin Tiaan was hospitalized, and the others, having witnessed Xiang Wan's fierceness, dared not discuss her openly anymore.
Though she had so much work, cleaning two floors all by herself, she was exhausted every day with sore back and aching waist. Even a single day off was just a dream for her.
Hallway.
"Auntie, please be careful when you sweep the floor," the man said with disdain. "You got my shoes dirty!"
"Excuse me, let me get a new towel to wipe you down, alright" Xiangwan's mop hadn't even touched the other person's shoes, yet she kept apologizing profusely.
Explaining would only cause her more trouble. She's very tired every day and really doesn't have the energy to deal with any more hassle.
"Forget it!" the man said angrily. "In the future, open your eyes and if you dirty this, you can't afford to pay for it, understood"
"Alright, be careful on that." Xiang Wan stood aside holding a mop. After the man passed by, she turned to Zhou Miao who had just arrived, "Looking for me"
"Menglan sister called you over," Zhou Miao frowned as she walked, "That man just now, his entire outfit wouldn't even cost eight thousand, he's not someone wealthy, you don't need to be so servile."
向晚 smiled but didn't say anything.
She didn't mind, Zhou Miao also didn't say anything more, he brought her to the general manager's office and then left.
向晚 knocked on the door and waited for a response before pushing it open.
Upon seeing the people inside, her face turned pale, and she lowered her head to say, "Mr. He, Miss Menglan."
He sat bathed in the light, back against the couch. His expression was unreadable. His long legs were crossed, and a cigarette flickered between his fingers. It was just like two years ago when he'd broken her leg with a golf club.
Such a him, made her wake up in cold sweats countless times during nightmares at midnight. She didn't even have the courage to glance at him.
"It came quite quickly." Menglan finished brewing the tea and placed it on the table, smiling. "How is Lin Tiaolian doing Can she be discharged from the hospital"
"I don't know, I didn't go see her." Xiangwan's nostrils flared with a fine sheen of sweat, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably.
Has He Hanchuan come to follow up in the past week
Will he send her to prison with his own hands, just like two years ago
Her eyelashes fluttered uncontrollably, her throat was dry, and fear engulfed her completely. She should have endured it, she shouldn't have attacked Lin Tiantian...
“I was just asking, why are you so tense” Menglan raised her eyebrows playfully and smiled as she offered her a cup of tea. “Have some tea and relax. I’m not going to eat you.”
A faint scent of smoke hung in the air of the office. He Hanchuan didn't say a word, he didn't even move, yet his presence was everywhere, leaving Xiang Wan on edge.
She took the teacup with both hands, before she could even say thank you, He Hanchuan suddenly glanced over.
Whoosh!
The teacup fell to the ground and shattered.
"I'm sorry..." Xiang Wan's face drained of all color as she knelt down to pick up the shards on the ground. Unintentionally, a shard cut her hand, and blood began to flow.
She acted as if she didn't feel anything, continuing to pick up the pieces on the ground.
"You can't even hold a cup of tea properly. Do you think you're still the young miss from a wealthy family Hmm" He Hanchuan got up and walked in front of her, his gaze falling on her bleeding hand, a coldness flowing in his eyes.
Her hand was wounded, but Keqing felt like her heart was bleeding. She lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Her lowered gaze made He Hanchuan feel inexplicably irritable. He frowned and instructed Meng Lan, "Take care of her wound. Don't let people think I mistreat my employees."
