She didn't blame those men for their choices, for how they were captivated by Shen Qianrou.

However, Su Heng was the exception.

In eight years, what she had done, and for whom, he should have known best.

In her eyes, she believed Su Heng wouldn't be such a shallow man.

But that was just her belief.

"What are you here for?"

Just a moment of daze, and Shen Fanxing instantly returned to her usual cold demeanor.

Shen Qianrou bit her lip, her hand gripping Su Heng's arm tightening slightly, her expression somewhat despondent.

Seeing Shen Fanxing's cold rejection, Su Heng furrowed his brows slightly.

He walked into the ward, and Shen Qianrou timidly followed at his side.

"Qianrou's health has improved quite a bit. She's being discharged today and came to bid you farewell."

Shen Fanxing sneered, "Bid farewell? Like a farewell to life and death? If not, then get out of here."

"Fanxing!"

Su Heng suddenly reprimanded in a low voice.

"When did you become so sharp-tongued? Right and wrong have always been clear to you. Qianrou has never done anything wrong. You..."

Shen Fanxing raised her head, and Su Heng's face was full of gloom, his eyes filled with accusation and disappointment.

She rarely saw Su Heng look at her with such eyes. She had never imagined that the man who had been so gentle would now look at her with such disdain and anger.

But in their recent encounters, he had shown her this gaze every time.

She thought she would still feel heartache and distress as before, but now, she was surprised by her own calmness and numbness.

Shen Fanxing put down the chopsticks in her hand, picked up the glass of water she had prepared earlier, and took a sip. Then, she interrupted Su Heng's words with indifference.

"If it's not her, then it's me?"

Shen Fanxing held the glass of water, feeling the heat in her hands.

She stood up, walked slowly to where the two stood, looked at Su Heng, and gently curled her lips.

"Am I sharp-tongued? May I ask, by what authority do you have to blame me?"

"I..." Su Heng moved his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"Sister, don't blame Brother Heng. It's all my fault..."

Before Shen Qianrou's voice could fully fall, Shen Fanxing's icy gaze suddenly pierced through her face like a knife.

Shen Qianrou's voice paused, and at the same time, her entire body stiffened.

"Of course, it's all your fault! I didn't say I don't blame you!"

Sensing Shen Qianrou's stiff body, Su Heng hugged her and pulled her behind him. "Fanxing, it's not Qianrou's fault. If you want to blame someone, blame me..."

Shen Fanxing slowly shifted her gaze to Su Heng's face. Her cold eyes stared at him for a moment, not angry but smiling, indifferent and numb as she looked at him.

"You think you shouldn't be blamed?"

Su Heng immediately lowered his eyebrows again.

"Both of you, who can absolve each other's mistakes?"

Su Heng pursed his lips, feeling powerless against Shen Fanxing's aggressive attitude.

"Do you think you can be together just because you want to? Everyone in Pingcheng knows that you, Su Heng, are my fiancé, and she, Shen Qianrou, is my nominal sister, the future sister-in-law and brother-in-law together! You two... What face do you have to be affectionate in front of others?!"

Upon hearing Shen Fanxing's words, Shen Qianrou's face immediately turned pale.

Although her reputation in the entertainment circle had just started to rise these past two years, there were still moralists within the industry.

If the two sides really clashed, it would inevitably lead to other peers seizing the opportunity to suppress her.

At that time, it would be really troublesome.
