Liang Yunman sat in the dressing mirror while Qian Ren helped her undress the stage for the day.

The little assistant was trembling with fear. She didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest as she was afraid that she would be scolded and beaten if she did anything wrong.

In the eyes of outsiders, Liang Yunman, the dancer, was gentle and generous, and had led a friendly and easygoing life. However, no one knew what Liang Yunman was like in private.

Inconstant, harsh, and ready to vent their anger on the assistant.

Sometimes, the people in the audience would discuss in private that this circle was suitable for those who were different on the surface to live on. It just had to be those who lived on the top of the Golden Pagoda.

As an assistant, he could only live a cautious life.

He had to deal with Liang Yunman's unpredictable temper every day.

He wasn't in a good mood, so he had to be more attentive.

Sometimes, the little assistant would think that serving the Empress in ancient times was already mediocre. For his little life, he would resign after receiving this month's salary. Although his salary was a bit higher here, he was unhappy every day, so he might as well resign.

What the assistant didn't know, her boss didn't care if she quit or not.

Ever since Liang Yunman had been rejected by An Haoxuan, he had been so angry that he had gnashed his teeth.

An Haoxuan, that's great. Now you're going to politely reject me.

He Chu Xue, just you wait. I definitely won't let you guys be together. An Haoxuan can only be me. All these years of feelings can't be fake.

"Aiya, are you trying to pull me to death!" The assistant pulled at her as she took off her hair. Actually, it wasn't that painful. It was just a strand of hair that had been pulled out. Liang Yunman didn't stop and reprimanded him, "What are you doing? Are you trying to pull me to death?"

The assistant looked wronged. God knew he had accidentally pulled out a strand of hair. How could she not pull out her hair? She was venting her anger on him.

The thought of quitting his job grew stronger in his heart.

An Haoxuan, I thought you wouldn't let me go? So what if I went to take a look? I want to see if he has anything that is worth your protection.

"Hurry up and unload them. Then, ask the makeup artist to come over and make me a more exquisite makeup." Liang Yunman ordered impatiently.

The assistant looked confused. "What kind of announcement are you going to make later? Why do you still need to put on makeup?"

"Why are you talking so much today? If I tell you to call, you can go. What is there to ask?" Liang Yunman said snappily.

The assistant also knew what he looked like and knew that no matter what he said, he wouldn't end up with anything good waiting for him.

Liang Yunman looked at himself in the mirror and fiercely said in his heart, "An Haoxuan, when the time comes you will regret this. It can only be me."

Sometimes, it was unknown if the heavens were playing tricks on them, but there were always some people in this world who could not be loved. However, there were still people who would hate because of love, and those who could not let themselves go.

What was there to be worried about? If he couldn't let himself go, he would be torturing himself as well.

It was a pity that the current Liang Yunman didn't understand this logic, or perhaps he would never understand it again.

After dressing up, Liang Yunman asked the assistant to buy some tonic. After all, the patient still needed to act.

A black nanny car drove through the main street, while both sides of the road were lined with modern street lamps. The dusky night had already enveloped the entire city, making it hard for people to see what the city looked like before.

The car quickly arrived at the hospital. After Liang Yunman got off the car, she directly ran towards He Chuxue's sickroom.

When An Qi and Gao Chen, who had been standing guard at the door, saw Liang Yunman, they were a bit surprised. They clearly knew that Mister didn't want her to come, but they still shamelessly came.

However, he had always disliked this good friend of his master, An Qi. He didn't have much of an impression of her and felt that this kind of woman didn't deserve him.

Perhaps He Chuxue was too easy-going towards everyone, so when she was treating Liang Yunman, An Qi would always feel that this kind of woman was not normal.

Although Gao Chen had the same thoughts as An Qi, he still welcomed Liang Yunman upon seeing him. As An Haoxuan's special assistant, if he didn't even have this ability, then it would be a waste for him to be this special assistant.

"Miss Liang, why have you come?" Gao Chen politely said with a smile.

Liang Yunman gave a generous smile and glanced in the direction of the ward.

"I came to see Miss He."

Gao Chen was an intelligent person who knew everything. Liang Yunman's thoughts towards his boss were known by everyone.

"The boss said that Madam hasn't fully recovered so it's not convenient for her to entertain guests."

Indeed, when Liang Yunman heard his wife's words, he was extremely angry. However, he couldn't let out his anger either. He clenched his hands tightly to calm his heart.

"I've already come, so why aren't you letting me in? What's more, how could Hao Xuan possibly stop me?" Liang Yunman was infuriated, but on the surface, she still had to pretend to be a generous and elegant goddess.

As he spoke, he pushed open the door to the ward.

"Hao Xuan." She hadn't even entered the room when she heard a voice from Hao Xuan, afraid that he wouldn't know who she was.

An Haoxuan, who was sitting at the head of the bed, frowned in displeasure.

Didn't this mean that he just let He Chu Xue lie down and talk to him, coaxing her to sleep, and then there was a disturbance?

When He Chu Xue heard Hao Xuan, she didn't have the mood to sleep anymore. Her perception told her that this Liang Yunman wasn't just here to look at her.

An Haoxuan cast a sharp glance at Gao Chen who was standing at the doorway. If this little piece of trash can't handle this matter well, what else can he do?

How could Gao Chen not know the meaning behind his boss's words? He had an aggrieved look on his face.

How could he stop her? She seemed to be forcing her way in.

"Why did you come here? I'm not asking Gao Chen to tell you not to come anymore." An Haoxuan's first words were filled with dissatisfaction. Would he be satisfied with just thinking about it?

He originally wanted to quietly pass the time between the two of them.

Liang Yunman could hear An Haoxuan's discontent. In her heart, her hatred for He Chu Xue grew even more.

Glancing at He Chuxue who was sleeping on the bed, Liang Yunman thought to herself, "Why didn't I drown you? It's better if you don't come back."

"You said it, you're worried that I'll run back and forth. Even if I'm busy, I still have to come and see He Chu Xue." Liang Yunman had said that he was answering An Haoxuan's question, but his eyes were firmly fixed on He Chu Xue.

He Chu Xue isn't an idiot, how could she not understand what you mean by 'running back and forth'? It's just showing off.

If he didn't understand what Liang Yunman meant today, then he would have wasted his twenty-year career as a woman.

"Miss Liang, what are you talking about? Hao Xuan thinks that Miss Liang has no reason to come here. I'm sorry to have to trouble you." He Chuxue straightened up, leaned on the cushion behind her and said.

How could An Haoxuan not understand the hidden meaning behind Chu Xue's words? He just didn't understand that they weren't usually the type to provoke others. But today, they seemed to have taken gunpowder instead.

An Haoxuan rarely saw someone like Chu Xue, so he was very interested in watching the situation unfold.

Liang Yunman did not expect that this seemingly harmless He Chu Xue would actually speak so impressively.

Although he was discontented, since An Haoxuan was present, he was able to suppress the rage in his heart like a clap of thunder.

"Speak of the devil. Even if I don't work, I still have to see you."

He Chu Xue smiled as she looked at An Haoxuan, only to see that he didn't react at all. Instead, he looked like he was just watching a show.

Ye Zichen was so angry that he lost interest. Aren't you just here to watch a play? I'm not going to act.

Seeing how he was acting, An Haoxuan was at a loss for what to do.

The more Liang Yunman looked, the more he disliked her.

"Alright, you've been quite busy lately. A Xue has nothing else to do here. I didn't want you to come anyway. Now that the others have seen you, you can go back in peace."

Liang Yunman's face instantly turned pale. How could she not understand that this was the intention of chasing people away?

Liang Yunman gnashed his teeth so hard that they broke in his stomach.

"Alright, I'll come back another day."

Without waiting for Liang Yunman to finish speaking, An Haoxuan anxiously chased him away. "Gao Chen, send Yunman away."

How could Gao Chen not immediately send someone out when he heard that?

Liang Yunman felt that even if she wasn't willing, she still had to leave for her own sake.

"Alright then, I'll be leaving first. I just happen to have something to do later."

He said a few words to give you a way out, but didn't expect that He Chu Xue would give her a little face. She even gave him a little kindness, but when she heard that she was leaving, she didn't show any expression.

Gritting her teeth, she followed Gao Chen out without saying anything.

When he left, he still looked in the direction of the ward with a vicious expression.

Gao Chen stood there as if he was seeing things. Liang Yunman had been a good friend of Mr. He's for so many years, but he had never seen her gaze before. It was completely different from the goddess that Liang Yunman had given to the masses.

Gao Chen rubbed his eyes.

In the ward, He Chu Xue's face was filled with displeasure.

However, An Haoxuan acted as if he didn't see it, and looked at the evening paper in his hands.

He Chu Xue couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She got up and grabbed the newspaper from An Haoxuan's hands.

"Hey, An Haoxuan, can't you see that I'm angry?" He Chuxue shouted to An Haoxuan, who was sitting in front of the sickroom.

An Haoxuan smiled helplessly, and didn't fight with her over it. Instead, he took another newspaper and started reading.

"What are you mad at? She's a friend of mine for so many years. Look at her eyes, it's as if she wanted to eat her."

She couldn't blame An Haoxuan for saying that. The look in her eyes just now had been too obvious.

He Chu Xue was dissatisfied.

"You really didn't see it coming. Take a look!"

An Haoxuan ignored her. While reading the newspaper, he said, "What do you think, He Chuxue, I don't know what's in your head. I know what you said, and I don't know what you're afraid of."

An Haoxuan had thoroughly asked about He Chu Xue with a single sentence.

What was he afraid of?

He Chu Xue probably didn't know either.

Just what was he afraid of?

Perhaps all these years of betrayal had caused He Chu Xue to feel uneasy. She didn't feel safe at all, especially towards people and things that she cared about.

He Chu Xue was afraid that the person she cared about the most would betray her and the thing she loved would be taken away by someone else.

Perhaps everything that had happened over a long period of time was hinting at the need for He Chu Xue and everything else to be carefully guarded.

An Haoxuan put down the newspaper in his hand and whispered into her ear word by word,

"I'm not like them. I won't leave, A Xue."

Yes, he wouldn't go.

He Chu Xue's entire body was uneasy, but at this moment, she completely quieted down.
