After the Harem Novel’s Female Lead was Spoiled by the Comments - Chapter 11

However, Yan Qingwen quickly adjusted her expression. Her gaze swept past Jiang Yunhan and landed on Zhuang Yi.

“Mr. Zhuang, in what capacity have you come here this time?”

A trace of gloom flashed through Zhuang Yi’s eyes.

Damn it. She actually dared to look down on him. After he took her down, he would definitely make her regret it.

Suppressing all his emotions, he put on a gentle and refined appearance and even handed over a business card.

“I’m here on behalf of our Auris Three-Star Restaurant. Something like this happened today because we handled things improperly, and we will definitely take responsibility!”

Jiang Yunhan was frantically roasting him from the side:

【Dragon King novels really are brainless face-slapping power fantasies. A mere server can actually represent a Michelin three-star restaurant to handle this accident? Isn’t that way too absurd? Does the author not consider logic when writing? Everything is just to let the Dragon King male lead show off his personal charm!】

Yan Qingwen was not led astray by Jiang Yunhan’s inner thoughts. She said calmly, “You may all leave first. As for how this should be handled, I will contact the relevant responsible parties after my wife wakes up.”

Jiang Yunhan was somewhat surprised.

【Shouldn’t Female Lead No. 1 be concerned right now about why the Dragon King male lead is working at a restaurant?】

Yan Qingwen ignored them and entered the ward again. She put Wen Hebai’s bloodstained clothes into a bag, then sat down on the sofa.

“It’s only a cut to the skin. Is there a need to wrap it like this? Anyone who doesn’t know better would think you had craniotomy surgery.”

Wen Hebai opened her eyes on the bed, seeming both coquettish and accusing. “You don’t care about me at all!”

Yan Qingwen glanced at her. “If I didn’t care about you, why would I come?”

Wen Hebai said, “Your body came, but your heart didn’t! You didn’t even ask whether it hurts.”

Yan Qingwen choked. She got up, stood beside the bed, lightly touched the bandage on Wen Hebai’s head, and asked, “Does it hurt?”

“It hurts!” Wen Hebai took the opportunity to wrap her arms around Yan Qingwen’s waist. “I thought I was going to be disfigured!”

Yan Qingwen asked, “Did you buy insurance?”

Wen Hebai: “…”

Su Jinyue, who had been too embarrassed to be a third wheel and was originally planning to give them some time alone, immediately perked up when she heard this question.

“Not yet! Ah, Sister Bai, you really lost out big time!”

Wen Hebai let go of Yan Qingwen and gave her a light push, saying somewhat coldly, “Even if I didn’t buy insurance, they still have to compensate me for medical expenses, emotional damages, lost work fees, and any penalties caused by my inability to attend events due to injury.”

“You rest first. Xiaoyue, come out with me for a moment,” Yan Qingwen said.

Wen Hebai turned away and ignored her.

Su Jinyue had heard what Yan Qingwen said when scolding Mu Rong earlier. Thinking back carefully, this matter actually had something to do with her too. If she had not lost her temper and argued with Mu Rong, Zhuang Yi would not have appeared to stand up for her. Mu Rong would not have acted violently, and Wen Hebai would not have been accidentally injured.

She was worried that Yan Qingwen was going to settle accounts with her and felt somewhat uneasy.

Zhuang Yi, Jiang Yunhan, and Mu Rong had already left. Wen Hebai’s assistant had also been sent out to buy lunch. The corridor was quiet.

Yan Qingwen walked to the window at the end of the hall and asked Su Jinyue, “When you were with them today, did anything abnormal happen?”

Su Jinyue froze, then breathed a sigh of relief.

So Sister Yan wasn’t here to settle accounts with her!

She instinctively wanted to tell Yan Qingwen that she could hear Jiang Yunhan’s inner thoughts. However, she suddenly realized it would be difficult to prove. What if Yan Qingwen thought she was crazy?

She asked, “Something abnormal… Does Mu Rong accidentally injuring Sister Bai count?”

Yan Qingwen nodded. “It counts. He is at least someone with status and reputation. Publicly using violence against someone is different from his usual scandals. It would have a very serious impact on the image of the Mu family’s company. Although he is a wastrel and a little stupid, he is not usually such an impulsive and violent person.”

She interpreted Mu Rong’s behavior as being influenced by something, causing his intelligence to be forcibly lowered.

Yan Qingwen’s words hit exactly what Su Jinyue had been thinking. She hurriedly echoed, “Right! No wonder I felt he was acting strange today. After Sister Yan analyzed it like this, I finally understand what was wrong.”

Yan Qingwen asked, “Was there anything else off?”

Su Jinyue racked her brain, trying to steer the topic toward Jiang Yunhan.

“And Jiang Yunhan. He… he said some inexplicable things, something about a Dragon King son-in-law, and Sister Yan being Female Lead No. 1… I don’t really understand what he meant.”

What made her even angrier was that Jiang Yunhan had actually called her love-brained and said she would fight Sister Yan over a man. What kind of joke was that? Sister Yan belonged to Sister Bai. She was their CP fan. There was no way she would ever do something like stealing Sister Yan’s man, okay!

Although those were Jiang Yunhan’s inner thoughts, she believed Sister Yan would not go ask him to verify them, so she said it with peace of mind.

Yan Qingwen understood. Su Jinyue had indeed heard Jiang Yunhan’s inner thoughts.

Since Su Jinyue did not state it clearly, Yan Qingwen could not say too much either. To prevent this girl from falling into the trap, she said, “You don’t need to care about what he said. If you want to know what kind of person someone is, you have to see whether their words and actions are consistent. Sometimes, what a person thinks in their heart may not necessarily be true either.”

Su Jinyue felt that this sentence sounded strange. It was like a parent worried about their child falling in love too early and discussing human nature with them.

She smiled and coquettishly held Yan Qingwen’s arm. “Got it, Sister Yan. Oh, right, there’s also that restaurant server. Sister Yan, do you know him?”

Yan Qingwen told her what had happened yesterday.

Su Jinyue instantly developed a trace of goodwill toward Zhuang Yi. “He’s quite righteous and hot-blooded. Today, he also came out to help stop Mu Rong.”

Yan Qingwen could not judge whether yesterday’s incident had been planned by Zhuang Yi, nor could she deliberately smear him. But the fact that Su Jinyue had developed goodwill toward him so easily made her somewhat worried.

“Xiaoyue, that was part of his job. And in handling this matter, he was biased. After all, the argument was between you and Mu Rong, yet he only stopped Mu Rong. That was bound to anger Mu Rong and further escalate the conflict. If I were the boss, I would have him undergo training first. Only after he passed would he be allowed to continue working.”

Su Jinyue said awkwardly, “Sister Yan, you’re so strict.”

Wen Hebai’s voice suddenly cut in.

“I agree.”

Yan Qingwen and Su Jinyue turned around and realized that Wen Hebai had left the ward at some point.

“Hehe, Sister Bai also thinks Sister Yan is strict.” Su Jinyue was amused.

Wen Hebai glanced at her and said, “I agree with my wife. You’re just too stupid, pure, and innocent. That man was clearly coming for you, yet you fell for it so easily.”

Yan Qingwen had not expected Wen Hebai to say what she was worried about so bluntly. Also, how had Wen Hebai seen that Zhuang Yi was coming for Su Jinyue?

Su Jinyue was stunned by the scolding and looked somewhat confused. “Coming for me?”

“When you keep running into someone frequently, that definitely isn’t fate. It’s something arranged in advance. If you don’t believe me, then listen to me. For the next month, don’t take the initiative to go to that restaurant. If you still run into him even then, it must be because he’s deliberately approaching you.”

“I understand, Sister Bai.” Su Jinyue was not truly stupid. Since Wen Hebai had put it so clearly, if she still had no vigilance at all, she would be unworthy of being an adult.

Su Jinyue still had to return to work. After she left, Wen Hebai rolled her eyes at Yan Qingwen.

“If you don’t tell her directly, she won’t understand.”

“You eavesdropped on our conversation, and you still think you’re in the right?” Yan Qingwen gave her a sidelong glance.

“I only came out to see whether Xiao Lu had gone to buy food yet. I’m starving.”

Yan Qingwen said, “Eat some fruit first if you’re hungry.”

“I don’t want to use my hands.”

Seeing as Wen Hebai was a patient, Yan Qingwen washed a bunch of grapes for her and cut an orange.

Wen Hebai pushed her luck. “Peel it for me. I don’t want to get orange juice all over my hands.”

“Why don’t I just feed it directly to your mouth?” Yan Qingwen said sarcastically.

“That would be perfect.” Wen Hebai actually lifted her hands and opened her mouth, waiting to be fed.

Yan Qingwen refused to indulge her. After cutting the orange and washing her hands, she said, “I still have things to handle. If you want to stay hospitalized, I’ll have Aunt Lan bring dinner over tonight and pack your change of clothes as well.”

Wen Hebai immediately sat up. “Who said I want to stay hospitalized? I’ll go back after eating. Tonight, come home early and apply medicine for me.”

Yan Qingwen: “…”

Your scheming abacus beads are practically flying into my face.
