Chapter 258: Sisters' Heart-to-Heart
A day later, Bian Suwen slowly awoke.
Beside her bed, Liu Yue and Lin Chen were keeping vigil.
“Third Sister, how are you feeling?” Liu Yue asked excitedly.
Bian Suwen looked around, momentarily dazed, then realized she was still alive. Her body felt perfect, indicating the poison had been neutralized.
Though confused by this, Bian Suwen was more concerned about someone else.
“Where is Wang Haoran?” Bian Suwen asked urgently.
“He’s next door, being looked after by Seventh Sister and Sixth Sister,” Liu Yue replied.
Hearing this, Bian Suwen got out of bed immediately, not even bothering to put on shoes, and rushed barefoot to the next room.
Ji Shuiyao and Qiu Qianwei, who were by Wang Haoran’s bedside, heard the commotion outside and instinctively looked over.
Bian Suwen felt a bit embarrassed but couldn’t care less. She walked straight to the bed, tightly grasping Wang Haoran’s hand, her eyes filled with endless tenderness.
Seeing this, neither Qiu Qianwei nor Ji Shuiyao were surprised.
They had seen Wang Haoran and Bian Suwen embracing when they entered the intensive care unit earlier.
“I’ll go out to buy something,” Ji Shuiyao said, finding an excuse to leave.
In her view, since Qiu Qianwei and Wang Haoran were a couple, the sudden appearance of Third Sister Bian Suwen was a matter for the three of them to handle.
Ji Shuiyao considered herself an outsider, merely harboring unrequited feelings, so it was inappropriate for her to interfere.
However, once outside the room, Ji Shuiyao’s curiosity got the better of her, and she leaned against the door to eavesdrop on the conversation inside.
Inside the room.
After a moment of silence, Qiu Qianwei broke it first, “Third Sister, the friend you mentioned before, it’s actually you, isn’t it?”
“Yes,” Bian Suwen admitted without hiding.
Qiu Qianwei nodded slowly. She had suspected something was amiss when she saw Bian Suwen’s excited demeanor while talking about Wang Haoran.
And when she saw Wang Haoran and Bian Suwen tightly embracing in the intensive care unit, her suspicions were confirmed.
Hearing Bian Suwen’s admission now, she was completely certain.
After Bian Suwen’s response, Qiu Qianwei looked at Wang Haoran’s sleeping face and casually dropped a bombshell, “Actually, he’s my boyfriend.”
“What?!” Bian Suwen was shocked and instinctively let go of Wang Haoran’s hand. “Seventh Sister, I’m sorry.”
“No need to apologize. In fact, you knew him before I did,” Qiu Qianwei said, not blaming anyone given Wang Haoran’s current state.
Moreover, hearing Bian Suwen’s story, Qiu Qianwei felt sorry for her and naturally wouldn’t blame her.
“Seventh Sister, having such a generous sister like you is truly a blessing from my past life,” Bian Suwen said, moved, as she held Qiu Qianwei’s hand tightly. After a moment of internal struggle, she solemnly said:
“Rest assured, once he wakes up, I’ll return to the capital immediately and won’t interfere with your relationship.”
“Third Sister, will you be happy doing that?” Qiu Qianwei asked.
Bian Suwen’s expression was pained, and she was momentarily speechless.
Of course, she wouldn’t be happy, but feeling guilty and for the sake of sisterhood, she had no choice but to make this decision.
Seeing her third sister’s expression, Qiu Qianwei felt heartbroken. After a moment of hesitation, she suddenly said, “Third Sister, you don’t have to do this. If it were an outsider, I would definitely drive them away, but you’re different. I don’t want to leave him, but I also don’t want you to be sad.”
Bian Suwen looked at Qiu Qianwei in disbelief, “You mean…”
“Of course, if you’re unwilling, just pretend I didn’t say anything,” Qiu Qianwei quickly added.
“No, no, I’m willing, I’m willing,” Bian Suwen replied repeatedly.
A win-win situation was the best solution, and how could Bian Suwen refuse?
Although it was an unusual arrangement, Qiu Qianwei was right; they were all family, so there was no need to fight. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone was happy?
However, Bian Suwen decided to yield to Qiu Qianwei a bit.
Firstly, she was the elder sister, and Qiu Qianwei was the younger sister, so it was only natural for the elder to yield to the younger.
Secondly, Qiu Qianwei was there first, and she came later. By the rules, Qiu Qianwei was the senior, and she was the junior.
Lying on the bed pretending to sleep, Wang Haoran was overjoyed hearing their conversation.
He had been pretending to sleep, partly to avoid the issue of saving people and partly because he didn’t know how to mediate between Qiu Qianwei and Bian Suwen.
So he kept pretending, thinking of a solution.
To his surprise, without him saying a word, the two sisters had already discussed and found a win-win solution.
As expected of the female leads in a feel-good novel, they truly had the awareness to share and not monopolize!
Although this sharing was limited to sisters, it was still quite good.
Moreover, Wang Haoran used his X-ray vision to see Ji Shuiyao, who was eavesdropping outside the door, suddenly showing a delighted expression. What was going on?
Did Ji Shuiyao also have thoughts?!
Wonderful!
Wang Haoran was secretly happy for a long time.
Having pretended to sleep for so long, he was a bit tired, so he moved his fingers.
Although Qiu Qianwei and Bian Suwen were talking, their attention was often on Wang Haoran.
Wang Haoran’s slight movement caught their attention.
They stopped talking and looked at Wang Haoran with hopeful eyes.
Seeing this, Wang Haoran “slowly” woke up under their expectant gazes.
“Is this… is this heaven?” Wang Haoran asked, looking confused.
“You’re not dead; you’re still alive,” Qiu Qianwei said tenderly.
“I clearly remember feeling terrible, like I was about to die. How could this be…” Wang Haoran feigned ignorance.
Hearing this, Bian Suwen was also puzzled.
She wanted to ask Wang Haoran what had happened and why her poison was cured, but seeing Wang Haoran’s expression and tone, he seemed genuinely unaware.
“Think back, did you see anyone else in the intensive care unit before you fainted?” Bian Suwen asked, her mind racing.
The Poison Feather Blood Prison’s poison couldn’t be fake; it wouldn’t just disappear without reason. Someone must have intervened.
Hearing this, Wang Haoran pretended to recall, but after a few seconds, he suddenly exclaimed, “Ah, my head hurts…”
“Forget it, don’t think about it,” Bian Suwen said, feeling heartbroken.
Qiu Qianwei felt the same way, so she hugged Wang Haoran’s head, letting him rest on her chest to ease his pain.
Wang Haoran immediately stopped pretending, but since it was comfortable, he didn’t move away.
With this commotion, Bian Suwen lost the desire to question Wang Haoran further.
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door.
Qiu Qianwei tensed up, shyly pushing Wang Haoran away, letting him lie on the bed, and said to Bian Suwen, “Third Sister, Fifth Sister and Sixth Sister don’t know about me and Haoran being a couple. Let’s not spread this for now; I don’t want to trouble Haoran.”
“Understood,” Bian Suwen nodded happily and added, “Let’s also keep my situation with Haoran a secret for now.” She was also quite shy and didn’t want to be open about it, so Qiu Qianwei’s suggestion suited her well.
Hearing their words, Wang Haoran felt extremely relieved.
Their awareness was impressive, leaving him with nothing to worry about. As long as he didn’t deliberately mess things up, there shouldn’t be any collapse in the situation.
“Come in,” Bian Suwen said to the person outside.
The door opened, and Divine Doctor Xue entered, looking serious. “Master Uncle, we have uninvited guests.”
