Chapter 17: Seems Like I Came at the Wrong Time

Qin Youxuan was aimlessly driving around the streets, and in the end, she parked near the hospital.
She got out of the car, bought a bouquet of flowers from a nearby shop, then returned to her car.
She started the car and drove into the parking lot of the hospital’s inpatient department.
Unable to find evidence proving her self-defense, she had to bow her head, however unwilling, to prevent the situation from worsening.
Qin Youxuan, bouquet in hand, arrived at the inpatient department’s front desk and confirmed Chuangmei CEO Chen Chuang’s room number. She quickly rode the elevator to his floor.
Looking up at the VIP hospital room in front of her, a cold, mocking smile tugged at her lips.
She had been careful in her attack, merely aiming to blow things out of proportion and involve the police. There was no risk to his life.
Theoretically, such a minor injury wouldn’t even result in a concussion, and he could be discharged immediately after getting bandaged up. However, they put up such a big fuss and he even stayed in the hospital. It was all for collecting evidence to falsely accuse her of assault.
Qin Youxuan took a deep breath, suppressing all her emotions before knocking on the door.
“Didn’t they just check on me? How many times do you need to check in a day!
You’ll diagnose me to be ill even if there’s nothing wrong. It’s annoying!” Before Qin Youxuan could push open the door and enter, someone inside was already hurling curses.
Wearing a forced smile, she opened the door and walked in.
“Mr. Chen, I apologize for disturbing you. It seems I picked a bad time to visit and upset you?”
Qin Youxuan sneaked a peek at the stunned Chuangmei CEO, and the two bodyguards standing beside him. As if unbothered by Chen Chuang’s astonishment, she teasingly ran her fingers through her long, sexy hair and placed the bouquet she brought into a vase.
The gaze behind her was impolitely fixed on her, bold and incredibly disrespectful.
Through a few simple actions, Qin Youxuan almost couldn’t control herself and wanted to rush to the wily old man and slap him across the face again.
“Hmph, you’re quite sensible for coming to apologize. How is it, have you received my lawyer’s letter yet? I’m telling you, if I want to sue you, no one can protect you! ”
The moment Chen Chuang saw Qin Youxuan willingly walking into the lion’s den, his eyes lit up. He shooed the bodyguards away with a wave of his hand.
His lewd gaze traveled over her partly opened blouse.
He was captivated by her last night, even though it was only a fleeting glimpse.
This time, under the broad daylight, Qin Youxuan was right before his eyes. Not only did he not find her beauty diminished, but he felt an irresistible urge towards her.
She seemed like an ordinary woman from the night scene who became
arrogant by relying on her good looks.
Little did he expect her to be the daughter of the Qin Group.
No wonder her temper carried a distinct flavor of nobility.
Chen Chuang fixated on Qin Youxuan’s eyes and his understanding deepened…
“Mr. Chen, you sure know how to joke. Last night’s incident was clearly a misunderstanding. I just came back to the country and didn’t know who you were, and I was so tense that I attacked you out of self-defense.”
Qin Youxuan stated her facts with humility, but her gaze carried obvious contempt when looking at Chen Chuang.
However, he was too self-satisfied to notice.
“Hmph, self-defense? I think you should be looking out for yourself now. We’re all smart people here; stop playing games with me!” Chen Chuang grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him, wearing a lascivious smile.
“You’re here because you hope that I withdraw the complaint, right? The Qin Family is already dealing with all the scandals, and the rumors regarding the illegitimate child returning home are buzzing around.. If you get involved in a lawsuit at this time, I suspect you’d stand to lose even more, wouldn’t you?”
