Sheng Yanzhou glanced at her faintly.
"Are you going to treat your leg too?"
Shi Lili was momentarily taken aback and instinctively replied, "No."
Her leg didn't need treatment.
Sheng Yanzhou raised an eyebrow. "Then what do you want to ask?"
Only then did Shi Lili realize that Sheng Yanzhou was mocking her, and a hurt expression crossed her face.
"I care about you, Yanzhou. Who knows if that master is reliable or has ulterior motives? What if he wants to harm you?"
Sheng Yanzhou frowned.
"Xiao Xi is very reliable! Since you've come back, just go home. Don't forget how you went abroad; keep your distance from me in the future."
Hearing his words, Shi Lili recalled events from two years ago.
It was just because she wanted to strengthen her relationship with Sheng Yanzhou after a banquet that she ended up at his room. The moment she touched his clothes, she was thrown out.
Soon after, Sheng Yanzhou found her father and, after an unknown conversation, she was sent abroad for two years.
Shi Lili felt that Sheng Yanzhou was too cold; even after years of admiration, he showed no special affection or pity towards her.
Thus, she believed that he treated all women with the same coldness and only cared about his work.
However, today, after seeing Ruan Fuxi, Shi Lili's perspective changed.
Sheng Yanzhou defended her, smiled at her with such warmth and affection, and even had dinner with her alone.
It turned out he wasn't devoid of feelings; he just didn't like her.
Yet Shi Lili was determined to cling to him.
"Yanzhou, keeping my distance from you seems impossible. I haven't wasted my time abroad these past two years; with my teacher's help, I've participated in some films and gained a bit of fame. Moreover, I've signed with your entertainment company."
Sheng Yanzhou's gaze darkened.
"Oh really? Then you'll soon receive a notice of contract termination."
Shi Lili's expression changed as she began to guess his meaning.
"Yan Zhou, how can you be so heartless after growing up together?"
Sheng Yan Zhou replied, "Did I not tell you before? Don't try to play the emotional card with me. It's useless."
Shi Lili wanted to say something more, but just then, she received a phone call regarding the contract termination discussion.
She cast a deep glance at Sheng Yan Zhou before turning to leave. He remained the same Sheng Yan Zhou, ready to terminate the contract without hesitation. Shi Lili had no choice but to temporarily step away to handle her matters.
Yes, she would investigate that woman who appeared beside Sheng Yan Zhou. And she would also look into the master who treated his leg. Shi Lili wanted to understand why some things were different from her previous life.
Cheng Qiting watched her leave and let out a sigh of relief. Finally, it was done.
Ruan Fuxi observed Shi Lili's retreating figure with an inexplicable expression; there was something odd about her. She was surprised by the news of Yan Zhou regaining the use of his legs, but her surprise felt different from Cheng Qiting's. It was as if she had known that Yan Zhou's legs could not be restored, yet this unexpected event had occurred.
With Lin Xueer in the picture, Ruan Fuxi boldly speculated whether Shi Lili might be in a similar situation. Judging by Shi Lili's reaction, Ruan Fuxi believed she was filled with curiosity about herself and waited for Shi Lili to approach her.
On the other side, Cheng Qiting continued excitedly, "Yan Zhou, when did your legs recover? If I hadn't run into you today, I wouldn't have known! Why didn't you tell me? Do you not consider me a brother?"
He then added, "But this is something worth celebrating! Let's do it tonight. I'll invite others too; you should come along. By the way, didn't you say you wanted to bring your nephew Si Han? Bring him along as well."
