Soon after, Xia Ruya arrived at the hospital and was shocked to see Wen Xinya. “Xinya, why are you here?”

Her eyes opened wide in disbelief. Wen Xinya was not supposed to be here.

“The same reason as you,” said Wen Xinya, smiling.

Xia Ruya’s arrival was not a surprise to Wen Xinya. But it was a bit late; she arrived after Ning Shuqian had come out of the ER.

Xia Ruya was a little embarrassed. “How’s Aunt Ning?”

“Just received treatment. She’s fine now—in the ward.” Wen Xinya kindly pointed out the direction of the ward for her.

“Thanks!” Xia Ruya quickly went into the ward.

Through the glass panel on the door, Wen Xinya saw Xia Ruya asking about Ning Shuqian’s injuries and comforted Wen Haowen gently.

Wen Haowen calmed down gradually.

Wen Xinya’s lips curled up into a sneer.

It took Xia Ruya quite a while to come out of the ward. She forced a smile when she saw Wen Xinya and said, “Xinya, I heard from Aunt Ning that you injured your head. Are you okay?”

“What? You wish that I’m not okay?” Wen Xinya looked sidelong at her. “Or… you’re disappointed to see that I’m okay?” Xia Ruya liked to pretend to be kind-hearted. Even if their relationship had worsened so much, Xia Ruya still played nice in front of her. Didn’t she feel tired?

Xia Ruya was stunned. Indeed, that was what she was thinking. She felt embarrassed as Wen Xinya seemed to see through her. She forced a smile and said, “You’re mistaken. How would I think that way?”

Wen Xinya stared at her and said, “If that’s true, why do you have that weird expression on your face? Or… you think my recovery is not a good thing?”

“It’s impossible for me to think that way!” Xia Ruya couldn’t stand Wen Xinya’s continuous attacks. She clenched her fists and her face distorted in anger.

“I’m not you. How would I know your thoughts? The most dangerous people are the double-faced ones. Though one speaks well, one’s heart is false.” The best way to deal with hypocrites was to strip away their disguise.

Xia Ruya tightened her grip, her nails piercing through her flesh. The sharp pain helped to clear her mind and she took a deep breath to calm herself down. “I have nothing to say if you don’t believe me.”

Xia Ruya’s perfect disguise seemed to be cracked. She wasn’t invincible, after all.
