Chapter 95 - 87: Genuine Feelings
Two days later, Shen Jianian finally managed to speak, though her voice was a bit hoarse.
Bai Changxia originally planned to return to Beicheng on the afternoon of the seventh day of the New Year. To stay and take care of Shen Jianian, she rescheduled her flight to the same day as hers.
"Are you really planning to go back to Beicheng?" Bai Changxia came to the legendary Rose Manor and was in the room where Shen Jianian usually stayed.
Upon entering the manor, the scenery along the way was breathtaking. Even in the bleak winter, vast expanses of greenery could be seen, as if stepping into another world. The front yard was spacious, with fountains, gazebos, and rockeries seemingly placed randomly but with a well-thought-out layout, complementing the surrounding scenery.
Looking at the interior decoration, it was everywhere exquisite and luxurious, without being flamboyant, indicating that the owner of the manor was a man of taste and style.
"It’s Fu Jichen’s decision."
In front of Shen Jianian was an open suitcase, half-filled with clothes.
She had just been discharged from the hospital and was feeling somewhat tired, slumping on the sofa, her body leaning back against the soft pillow, gazing at the ceiling.
The bandages wrapped around her neck hadn’t been removed yet, and although the wound wasn’t visible, it was still quite shocking.
Previously, Fu Jichen mentioned several times asking her to return to Beicheng. She firmly refused each time without any doubts, and he didn’t force her—this time it was an order.
"Being by his side is better; otherwise, it’s unsafe for you here alone," Bai Changxia continued to pack her luggage, "You scared me to death this time. Honestly, I’ve never experienced anything like this growing up—just thinking about it is terrifying—I feel like it could have been on the news."
Shen Jianian smiled softly.
