Chapter 487: Shin and Huian (6)
When she heard that Liang Zou, Liang Xiao Dan, and even Nana gathered in Shin’s room, she couldn’t help but worry. The time for the wedding rituals was nearing, but Shin still wasn’t at his place.
So, she insisted on checking on him in his room. Suddenly, she had a bad sense of foreboding. When she reached the door, she heard them talking, and when Shin explained his problem, she froze. She felt her body go numb.
Mu Shuchun…his ex-girlfriend…she still wants him back.
“Huian!” Shin rushed towards her and hesitated as he spoke, “You…heard everything, right?”
Huian was in a daze.
Today, it was supposed to be the perfect day for her and Shin, but why did Mu Shuchun come in between them at now of all times? And Shin said that he was going to the hospital…
Naturally, she understood his predicament. But that didn’t mean it didn’t hurt her when he was leaving to attend his ex-girlfriend on his wedding day.
Suddenly, it felt as if her heart was mercilessly stabbed. Just when she thought that everything would go alright, Mu Shuchun interfered as the biggest hurdle between them.
Liang Xiao Dan quickly said, “Huian dear, you don’t worry. We will think of a solution.”
Then she looked at Zou, “Zou. How about we meet her in the hospital and talk to her?”
Liang Zou nodded. “That’s a good idea.”
Nana agreed. “Mom. Dad. I will come with you too.”
“No,” Shin declined. “I know what I am doing.”
He looked at Huian and knew that she was on the verge of crying but held in her tears. He held her hand in his and looked straight in her eyes.
“Huian I-“
But Huian smiled at him and said, “Go, Shin. I will wait for you.”
Shin froze.
He knew how much pain she must be in saying those words, yet she bravely said it to him.
Shin was stunned.
Huian said, “Shin. I understand your problem. I know you are thinking about your staff and I am thinking about you. You may not care about your reputation and medical license, but I do. I cannot see you getting stripped off from your position because of me. You have worked hard for years to get where you are now, and just because of her, I cannot see you lose it.”
Shin quietly looked at her. He took a deep breath. “Huian, do you trust me?”
Huian stared back at him, and as their gazes met, she felt a sense of assurance and resolution in them, and the turbulence in her heart seemed to settle down. Strangely enough, she wasn’t worried and in turmoil anymore.
She quietly whispered. “I do. I trust you.”
Shin smiled and kissed her forehead. “I promise that our wedding won’t get delayed. It will be at the decided time. I will be back before you know it.”
Huian softly nodded. “Okay.”
Nana worriedly asked, “Big brother, but how? A surgery takes up a lot of time.”
A dark and cold aura surrounded him as he spoke. “Don’t worry, little sis. I will never give what Mu Shuchun wants.”

In the hospital, Mu Shuchun was still refusing to listen to the nurses. She was stubbornly holding the scalpel and threatening to cut herself.
Just then, the door opened, and Shin entered.
“Shin!” Mu Shuchun felt delighted. “Shin, I knew you would come. I knew that you love me and cannot see me in pain. Shin, I am so happy…” her eyes teared up.
Mu Shuchun kept on talking, but Shin ignored her. He looked at Dr. Xu. “Get ready for the surgery.”
“Shin…” she tried to hold his hand, but he stepped back.
His gaze was as cold as the Arctic, and even his staff felt the chills.
“Don’t dare touch me, or I will leave straightaway,” he snarled.
Mu Shuchun was shocked. “Shin, why are you talking this way? Please…I really need you…”
Shin didn’t bother with her tears. The nurses quickly got everything ready.
“Shin, please talk to me…”
Shin ignored her and took the anesthesia injection from the nurse.
“Stop talking. I don’t have time to waste on you.”
Mu Shuchun knew that he was angry at her for threatening him to come. She pursed her lips.
“Shin, I am sorry for threatening you…I-I really didn’t mean to do that, but I just wanted you back. I had no choice… please don’t be angry at me. But now that you broke your wedding with Huian, we can get back together…Shin, you have no idea how happy I am…”
Shin narrowed his eyes. He glanced at Dr. Xu, and he nodded.
“Now that you are here, I know that I will be alright…After the surgery, we will decide the place where we would live together.”
Shin inwardly sneered but kept a neutral expression on his face.
Shin put on the surgical mask and gloves. He pulled her hand and rubbed a bit of anesthetic on her arm, and then pushed the liquid in the syringe into her.
“Shin…I love you…I am glad you came back to me…” The effect of anesthesia kicked in, and she got unconscious.
He silently stared at her.
Come back to you? Never Shuchun. It’s already over for us.
Shin removed his mask and looked at Dr. Xu. “She saw what she needed to see. You know what to do next, right?”
He nodded.
The nurses immediately understood it too. “Dr. Liang. We will take care of everything! Please hurry and return to your wedding venue.”
Shin smiled. “Thank you guys.”
They shook their heads. “It’s our honor to work with you, Dr. Liang. This is the least we could do to help you.”
“Congratulations on your wedding, Dr. Liang!”
Shin grinned. “Thanks! Now, I have to hurry and return to my lovely bride.”

Huian was standing at the window, waiting to see his car.
Xiang Qingge sighed. “Dear, please sit. You will get tired standing for this long.”
“I am fine, Mom.”
Just then, they heard the sound of a car coming in. Shin quickly got out.
Everybody was stunned. Huian’s heart skipped a beat.
Shin…he came…he is here…
Jing was shocked. “How can he come so soon? Shouldn’t the surgery take at least an hour?”
Jinhai narrowed his eyes and then smiled as he realized it. “He probably just gave her an anesthetic and left. In her unconscious state, how will she know who is doing the surgery? She just needed to see that brother-in-law was present. Also, the doctors and nurses would vouch that Shin did the surgery so she wouldn’t be able to make any fuss.”
“Wow, that is a simple yet brilliant plan!”
Nana excitedly said, “Ah, I am so happy! The wedding wasn’t affected at all!”
Shin finally came huffing and puffing in the room. He breathlessly chuckled. “I…am on time Huian…I told you, didn’t I? Our wedding will go just as planned.”
The Xiangs sighed in relief.
Huian trembled and burst into tears as she hugged him hard. For a moment, when she learned everything, she thought that everything was over.
But it wasn’t.
“Shin…thank you…thank you so much…”
“Anything for my wife.”
Huian laughed as tears streamed down. “I am still not your wife, you dummy.”
Shin smiled. “Well then, what are we waiting for?”
