the hallway lights went out instantly. Darkness enveloped everything, leaving an eerie silence.A single drop of water hit the ground, followed by a rapidly increasing clatter of more drops.>It's cold...Towards the Evening sat on the hospital bed eating a dragon fruit, she didn't speak much, no matter before or now, she wasn't a social butterfly.

"A good lawyer's eloquence isn't just rambling on, you know. Spouting nonsense like this will make the other lawyer catch you out." Zhong Yuxuan tapped Ren Xiaoya's head.

Ren Xiaoya's eyes darted back and forth, then suddenly stopped as if a pause button had been pressed.

But after only ten minutes of silence, "Your name is Hoshino Amane, right Amane, will you have to go back to the Dream Association after you're discharged this time"

"...Hmm." Xiang Wan paused her actions of eating the dragon fruit, a flicker of melancholy passing through her eyes. She wasn't sure if her plan to seduce He Hanchuan would be successful.

Even if he succeeds, would he really let her leave the Dream Hall Who knows, after playing around, he might still keep her in the Dream Hall to humiliate her.

Even if hope was slim, she had to try. It was her only option.

"Still have to go back…" Ren Xiaoya's baby face scrunched up into a ball. Suddenly, she remembered something and jumped up abruptly, throwing her arms around Zhong Yu Xuan's neck and wrapping her legs around his waist, hanging onto him like a koala.

Seeing this, Yanan accidentally choked and coughed twice. She took out a tissue and wiped the dragon fruit from her mouth.

"Go down." Zhong Yuxuan afraid she would fall, supporting her with both hands.

"Master—" Ren Xiao Ya hugged his neck and swayed back and forth, coquettishly saying: "You're not good friends with that He surname, right Just let him let go of Xiang Wan, okay"

A-Wai was slightly taken aback. She had heard that He Hanchuan had a lawyer friend, but the other party had been studying abroad and she had never met them. So it turned out to be Zhong Yuxuan.

Her eyes flashed. Maybe if he spoke up for her in front of He Hanchuan, that would be a solution.

Zhong Yuxuan gave her a thoughtful glance, then pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, which were almost knocked askew by Ren Xiaoya's movements, "Go down first."

"You have to agree!" Ren Xiaoya insisted, "Master, isn't a lawyer's duty to punish evil and promote good Help her! Xiang Wan has been bullied by He Hanchuan like this."

Zhong Yu-xuan calmly corrected, "You're talking about prosecutors and police; lawyers only serve money."

Seeing that he had no intention of helping, Yanan pursed her lips, wanting to say 'I appreciate Miss Ren's kindness,' but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back.

She clutched the sheets tightly, her eyes cast down, her breathing slightly more rapid than usual.

It's clear that Zhong Yuxuan cares about Ren Xiaoya, his apprentice. What if...what if he agreed That would give her a few more points of hope in leaving Meng Huishuo!

"Master——!!" Ren Xiaoya roared like a river east lion, "If you don't agree, I won't go down!"

Zong Yu Xuan remained unfazed, “Then hang it up, just don’t come complaining to me about sore arms later.”

“……” Ren Xiaoya instantly wilted, muttering, "No wonder you're friends with He Hanchuan, that ruthless capitalist. You two are birds of a feather..."

向晚 swallowed the dragon fruit, a flicker of sadness passing through her eyes. “Thank you, Miss Ren, for helping me twice. Please don’t make things difficult for Mr. Zhong. Our positions are different, and he must also have his difficulties.”

Ren Xiaoya let go of Zhong Yuxuan's neck and fell to the ground, twisting her body uncomfortably. "Actually, my master isn't bad either. His parents told him not to get involved in your brother's case, and he immediately withdrew the lawsuit."

"You withdrew the lawsuit, because of Mr. Zhong's parents!" Xiang Wan suddenly looked up, slightly embarrassed.

"Yeah." Seeing her agitated, Ren Xiaoya felt confused, "My master's parents are acquainted with your parents, so my master's parents asked him not to interfere in your brother's case, and then my master withdrew the lawsuit."

She spoke in a way that sounded like a tongue twister, and finally asked, "What's up"

"It's okay." Xiang Wan put down the dragon fruit, her expression had returned to normal, but her hand was still tightly clenched around the sheet beneath her.

He Ge's scheme really worked wonders. Not only did he avoid any unpleasantness with Zhong Yuxuan because of his brother's case, but he also got the land in G City's new development zone owned by Xiang's family for nothing!

Ren Xiaoya let out a long sigh, feeling awkward and guilty for being unable to help Xiang Wan. Her eyes flickered as she mumbled something about needing to use the restroom and quickly dashed out.

Looking at the restroom in the ward, Xiang Wan pursed her lips.

"How did you meet Miss Xiang and Xiao Ya" Zhong Yuxuan walked to the door and closed it.

A-Wan raised her head and glanced at him, then lowered it and put down the just-picked dragon fruit. She said in a flat tone, “I work at Dreamland, Miss Ren is a guest, and we happened to meet.”

"Was it just a chance encounter, or was this a deliberate meeting" Zhong Yuxuan pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose. Sunlight streamed in through the window, reflecting off the lenses and obscuring the expression in his eyes.

The faint smell of disinfectant permeated the ward. The white sheets, walls, and beige floor should have felt calming, but there was a jarring edge to it all.

A-Wan supported herself on the bed with both hands and shifted towards the pillow. "The first time I met Miss Ren, the new secretary of the municipal committee had just taken office, and there wasn't even a news report about him yet."

She chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Don't you think it's absurd that I, a newly released convict with no connections, could possibly get information about the new Party Secretary ahead of time"

"It's not like there's no background, is there" Zhong Yuxuan slowly peeled a banana, "Xiang Jia cut off relations with you, but Xiang Shao seems to have been in contact with you all along."

Towards Evening's brow furrowed slightly, "Hypothetically speaking, if I knew Miss Ren was the daughter of the new city committee secretary, what ability would I have to get her to come to Dream Club"

"Xiaoya has always been well-protected by her family. She just graduated two months ago and doesn't know how complex human nature in society is. She only knows that she has a heart full of enthusiasm to help people." Zhong Yuxuan took a bite of banana and said slowly, "But this doesn't mean there aren't understanding people around her."

"A-Wan spat out a sigh, tossing the half-eaten dragon fruit into the trash. 'Then please trouble that insightful person to persuade Miss Ren nicely, and ask her not to worry about me anymore, this murderer. I can't bear it.'"

"At your service," Zhong Yuxuan raised an eyebrow slightly, finishing the banana in a few bites and tossing it into the trash. "But Xiaoya is stubborn. I wouldn't expect my advice to work. And please, Miss, try to avoid her in the future if you see her."

With anger churning in her chest, A-Wei spoke coldly, "Please tell Miss Ren from me that I appreciate her kindness. Tell her not to be so easily charitable, because..." Her well-intentioned actions might bring a burden to others.

She stopped mid-sentence, swallowing. "Just say thank you is enough. I'm tired and need a rest for a while. Mr. Zhong, goodbye. No need to see me off."

"Thank you, Miss Xie, for your understanding. As a repayment, I will say a few good words for you in front of Han Chuan, but I can't guarantee how he will choose." Zhong Yu Xuan finished speaking and walked towards the door.

There was no response.

John Yu-Hsien walked out of the ward, neat and tidy. The moment the door closed, the last ray of sunlight was shut out.
