Wen Zhi's voice was muffled, "Is it my...trivial matter?"
Shang Hexing countered her with a question, "What do you think?"
It could only be her trivial matter.
What Wen Zhi did not know was that Shang Hexing, as a person, never meddled in others' affairs.
…
At this time, Chen Jinhai was leading Bei Sheng towards the pavilion.
Bei Sheng served as the Shang family's family doctor. Officially, Bei Sheng was employed through formal channels by the Shang family, but in reality, her only boss was Shang Hexing.
"Chen Jinhai, can you slow down a bit? How serious can it be for you to be this solemn?" Bei Sheng, who was carrying a medical kit, had started off with a steady pace behind Chen Jinhai, but now she was struggling to keep up.
Chen Jinhai stopped to wait for Bei Sheng for a few seconds, reminding her, "Don't mess this up."
Bei Sheng was very curious, "Who is injured in the end?"
Throughout the journey, Bei Sheng had asked many times, but Chen Jinhai just would not say.
This made Bei Sheng even more curious.
As the pavilion got closer, Chen Jinhai suddenly stopped moving, and Bei Sheng also came to a halt, asking him with a perplexed look, "Didn't you say not to delay things?"
Chen Jinhai turned and asked, "Do you know how to treat a wound?"
Bei Sheng rolled her eyes in exasperation, "What nonsense are you talking about, I am a doctor!"
Chen Jinhai, however, very seriously told Bei Sheng, "You won't be able to handle it."
Bei Sheng: ?
After being slightly stunned for a few seconds, Bei Sheng thought of a possibility and ventured a guess, "Could the wound be too deep? It couldn't be...a gunshot wound, could it?"
Seeing Chen Jinhai's solemn expression, Bei Sheng could only think of the worst possibilities.
Chen Jinhai shook his head, "When the time comes, act accordingly and say you can't treat the wound."
Bei Sheng: "…"
What exactly was going on?
They called her here, but now she's told she can't handle it? Was there a script for this?
Bei Sheng stood bewildered, but Chen Jinhai urged her, "Don't freeze, let's go."
Coming to her senses, Bei Sheng hurried after him, "I must see for myself today, what on earth this is all about."
Upon arriving at the pavilion.
Bei Sheng first caught sight of Shang Hexing's back, and it was only on the second glance that she noticed a new, inconspicuous young girl sitting on the stone bench.
The girl looked plain in both appearance and dress, hardly noticeable at all, but with Shang Hexing standing beside her, she became noticeable.
"Mr. Shang, Bei Sheng is here," Chen Jinhai announced.
Shang Hexing turned around, his gaze landing on Bei Sheng, who withdrew her surprised look from Wen Zhi and smiled at Shang Hexing, "Boss."
Shang Hexing tilted his head to signal Bei Sheng to proceed.
Bei Sheng asked, "Is she the one who's injured?"
Shang Hexing nodded.
It was Wen Zhi's first encounter with Bei Sheng. She wore a white shirt paired with light brown wide-leg trousers, and her hair was cut short and neat, giving her a refreshing and capable appearance.
Now, with Bei Sheng standing right in front of Wen Zhi with her medical kit, the close distance made it even easier for her to size up Wen Zhi. Just as she appeared at first glance, ordinary and unremarkable.
Could she be an undercover agent hidden by someone's side?
While guessing at Wen Zhi's identity, Bei Sheng bent down to take a closer look at her.
Those eyes, the nose, the mouth; each feature was quite delicate on its own; the eyes, the hair... "Tch," Bei Sheng sniffed at the tip of her nose, this young lady smelled so good~
Bei Sheng leaned in closer, intending to take a better whiff.
Wen Zhi shrank back in fear.
At this moment, Bei Sheng felt a force on her shoulder pressing her down, then pulling her back a bit.
Bei Sheng quickly looked up and unexpectedly saw Shang Hexing's displeased face. He spoke in a deep voice, "You've frightened her."
