TSBIR Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Extracting Information

“Let’s prick this hand, shall we?”

Song Yichen thought Shen Xingyang’s right hand had recovered better, so he considered drawing blood from it. However, Shen Xingyang refused.

“It’s alright, too many injections in my right hand will still affect my work.”

Although it wasn’t very painful, it was still uncomfortable to grip a pen tightly.

Song Yichen nodded and, listening to Shen Xingyang, proceeded with the left hand.

“It’s been half a month since your last blood routine and bone marrow examination.”

Hearing this, Shen Xingyang looked pained. “I feel fine. Can’t I skip them?”

“No, you can’t.”

Song Yichen refused without reservation. He needed to know if this treatment plan was effective for Shen Xingyang to decide on subsequent treatments.

In reality, Shen Xingyang’s main issue was anemia, not his congenital heart disease. If someone else had this heart condition, it could be completely cured with surgery, but Shen Xingyang’s physical condition couldn’t withstand such an operation.

If he really wanted to cure the heart disease, he first had to improve the anemia before undergoing surgery.

“Alright.”

Although Shen Xingyang didn’t want to go, he would only discuss things with Song Yichen, never refuse him.

Recently, Yin Yan had been swamped, giving Shen Xingyang some free time.

He originally planned to work overtime, but he received a call from Qi Zhe, who, along with Gu Ze, wanted to celebrate his birthday. Only then did he remember that it was his birthday. He stopped working overtime, packed up his things, and prepared to leave work.

He even asked Xiao Qi to book a restaurant to celebrate his birthday there.

Yin Yan originally wanted to come too, but Shen Xingyang said Qi Zhe would also be there, so Yin Yan said he would pick him up later.

Yin Yan didn’t want people in the entertainment industry to know about his relationship with Shen Xingyang. He was a very cautious person, and he wouldn’t do anything that would affect his career.

Without people Shen Xingyang disliked, this birthday party was especially enjoyable for Shen Xingyang, even though he could only watch others eat cake.

After the birthday party ended, Shen Xingyang was about to come out and call Yin Yan again, but as soon as he came downstairs, he saw Yin Yan’s car.

“You’ve been waiting here for me all this time?”

Shen Xingyang got into the car and asked in disbelief.

“I was afraid you’d have a hard time waiting.”

Yin Yan said with a smile, handing Shen Xingyang a box from the passenger seat. “I know you don’t lack anything, but it’s your birthday! You still need a gift. This is a newly released watch. Do you like it? If you don’t, I’ll buy another one.”

Shen Xingyang opened it, took a glance, and closed it.

“I like it very much.”

Yin Yan was about to say something when he saw Shen Xingyang close his eyes, preparing to sleep.

He also knew that the company had been busy recently, and Shen Xingyang must be tired, so he didn’t disturb Shen Xingyang’s rest.

Yin Yan took Shen Xingyang to Song Manor and originally wanted to carry Shen Xingyang back inside, but as soon as he touched Shen Xingyang, he woke up.

“Are we there?”

Yin Yan nodded.

Shen Xingyang stretched and prepared to get out of the car.

“Do you want to come to my place for a while? You haven’t been there yet, have you?”

Shen Xingyang looked at Yin Yan, who was blocking him, his purpose clear. He had no choice but to feign politeness and ask.

But in his heart, he wished Yin Yan would say no. However, Yin Yan nodded and said, “Okay.” Shen Xingyang was about to explode. He reluctantly led Yin Yan in and poured him a glass of water.

“A’Yang, didn’t you forget your watch?”

Yin Yan suddenly asked. Only then did Shen Xingyang realize he had forgotten it.

“I’ll go get it from the car.”

Yin Yan nodded and gave Shen Xingyang the keys.

At this time, Aunt Luo also went to call Song Yichen downstairs. Shen Xingyang had already sent him a message saying that Yin Yan was coming over for a bit to chat for a while, not to stay the night.

Although he didn’t like Yin Yan, he should still come down and say hello out of courtesy.

“Aunt Luo, get some fruit.”

Song Yichen sat lazily on the sofa and yawned.

“Why are you here?”

Shen Xingyang was so cautious that he wouldn’t take the initiative to invite Yin Yan to his home. Yin Yan must have suggested it.

“I just dropped A’Yang off and came to ask for a glass of water.”

Yin Yan looked at Song Yichen. For some reason, he always felt that Song Yichen was wary of his existence. Of course, he was also wary of Song Yichen’s existence.

“The water’s finished. Aren’t you leaving?”

Song Yichen directly started chasing him away. Song Yichen looked at the time on his phone and knew that Shen Xingyang would be back soon.

“I have some questions I’d like to ask Young Master Song.”

Song Yichen was too lazy to bother with him, clearly unwilling to answer his questions, not even interested in listening. He just slumped on the back of the sofa, looking impatient.

“Young Master Song, you like A’Yang, don’t you?”

Song Yichen chuckled. “How many times do I have to say it? I’m not interested in him.”

“Then why is Young Master Song willing to let A’Yang stay at Song Manor and give him medical treatment every day? Young Master Song is even more devoted than I am, his boyfriend, isn’t he?”

Hearing these provocative words, Song Yichen didn’t get angry, but his eyes turned colder. “Yin Yan, I’ve said it before, I’m not interested in him. I’m just taking care of him because of his brother’s request. After all, only you would like someone who is pretentious and full of lies.”

Yin Yan finally heard what he wanted to hear. He smiled. “Then I was overthinking things. Sorry, Young Master Song.”

Yin Yan looked behind Song Yichen, a victorious smile on his face.

Song Yichen turned his head sharply and saw Shen Xingyang holding a box, standing right behind him.

In an instant, he understood everything. His eyes were fixed on Yin Yan, he had been set up.

Shen Xingyang suppressed his inner displeasure. He knew that Yin Yan was doing this on purpose, it was his usual trick, but those words were indeed spoken from Song Yichen’s mouth.

“Yin Yan, don’t you have a shoot tomorrow? Go back and rest early.”

Yin Yan nodded, a little reluctant to leave, grabbing Shen Xingyang’s hand and unwilling to let go.

Shen Xingyang smiled. “Okay, go on.”

Shen Xingyang saw through his little thoughts, but he still coaxed Yin Yan. After all, they hadn’t broken up yet, and if he didn’t coax Yin Yan, Yin Yan would go crazy again.

After Yin Yan left, Shen Xingyang turned to Song Yichen. “Doctor Song, I’m sorry! I didn’t expect you to dislike me so much.”

Shen Xingyang thought that after these days of getting along, Song Yichen wouldn’t dislike him as much, but it seemed he was just daydreaming.

Being disliked by his savior was really uncomfortable, much more uncomfortable than before, maybe because he had already started to care about Song Yichen from the bottom of his heart!

Song Yichen was inexplicably irritated. “Don’t you know he did it on purpose?”

“I know.”

Shen Xingyang nodded. Yes, but those words were also Song Yichen’s true feelings, weren’t they?

“I’ll move out in a couple of days so I don’t cause Doctor Song any more trouble.”

Shen Xingyang had been spoiled by Song Yichen these past few days and had developed a bit of a temper. He couldn’t accept these words. It was fine at first, so why wasn’t it now? Shen Xingyang thought in his heart, feeling more and more uncomfortable.

“I didn’t mean that.”

Song Yichen subconsciously tried to explain, but he couldn’t say anything to explain. He didn’t know what was wrong with him at the time, he frantically wanted to refute what Yin Yan said.

It was as if someone had hit on something, and you frantically wanted to deny it.

Shen Xingyang was too lazy to say anything more. He only knew that he was very uncomfortable now and didn’t want to talk.

“Doctor Song, you don’t need to explain. I know what you mean.”

Song Yichen was a little angry. Shen Xingyang didn’t understand at all. “Shen Xingyang, what do you mean? I, Song Yichen, am upright and frank. Since I said I didn’t mean that, then I definitely didn’t mean that. Don’t think that just because you and Yin Yan can pretend, others will pretend too.”

Who did Song Yichen offend? He could have ignored Yin Yan, but if he hadn’t been worried that Shen Xingyang would think he wasn’t respecting him, he wouldn’t have come downstairs at all.

“Doctor Song, yes, I’m pretending, soiling Doctor Song’s eyes.”

From the beginning, Song Yichen had always had an opinion of him, often criticizing him, but Song Yichen’s attitude towards him had been good these past few days, so he thought Song Yichen had changed his mind.

“Unreasonable, I’m too lazy to talk to you. If you want to leave, then leave! After all, no one is like you and Yin Yan, calculating each other even as lovers. You were happy to have schemed against Yin Yan and your brother last time, weren’t you.”

Song Yichen was used to Shen Xingyang’s obedience to him. Now that Shen Xingyang’s tone was so bad, he was inexplicably angry, and he spoke incoherently, not knowing how he blurted out these words.

After saying that, he immediately regretted it, and he rubbed his forehead with his fingers in annoyance. “I’m sorry.”

Song Yichen looked at Shen Xingyang’s injured expression and cursed himself for his impulsiveness. Why couldn’t he think before he spoke?

Shen Xingyang didn’t say anything, just took a few steps back, his tone not as confident as before. “I’m sorry, Doctor Song. It’s been hard for Doctor Song to live with someone as scheming as me for so long.”

So Song Yichen always knew that he had schemed against Yin Yan. He had thought he had done it so well that no one knew.

No wonder Song Yichen would say that. Thinking about it, everything Song Yichen said was right.

After all, what he had done was indeed scheming against his boyfriend, scheming against his half-brother.

Could he explain to Song Yichen that he didn’t want to scheme against Yin Yan, he just wanted to save Shen Jinjue’s life?

Forget it, those who believe will naturally believe, and those who don’t believe, no amount of explanation will help.

After Shen Xingyang finished speaking, he didn’t care whether Song Yichen said anything and turned around and went back to his room.

Song Yichen cursed himself in his head, feeling a headache. What was wrong with him? He could be set up by Yin Yan, he was really getting worse and worse.
