Chapter 58: 058 Making plans with a tiger for its skin, tonight we must settle matters with Tang Wan [Prize Q&A] Chapter 58: 058 Making plans with a tiger for its skin, tonight we must settle matters with Tang Wan [Prize Q&A] Jiang Jinsang accompanied Qi Zeyan for lunch, then stayed at the hospital for a while longer. In the meantime, a steady stream of visitors came to see them, inevitably creating a noisy environment. Finally, Tang Wan found a doctor to change rooms and, using the excuse that Elder Tang needed peace to recuperate, declined all visitors.

As the sky grew dim, Tang Wan turned to Jiang Jinsang and Qi Zeyan, “Fifth Master, President Qi, it’s getting dark. Why don’t you both head back?”

“I…”

Just as Jiang Jinsang began to speak, he was gently cut off by Tang Wan, “Your own health isn’t great to begin with, and now the temperature has dropped outside. If you fall ill, I won’t be able to explain it to Auntie.”

“Then I’ll leave a couple of men with you,” Jiang Jinsang offered.

“This is a hospital; there are nurses on duty outside. It’s not necessary.”

Qi Zeyan’s relationship with her was just a normal partnership; he had even less right to insist on staying behind.

Then Tang Wan personally escorted the two men out.

“All afternoon, so many people coming and going, I didn’t have a chance to talk more with her, didn’t get to grow closer to her. It’s such a pity,” lamented Qi Zeyan.

“I had planned to make a strong move on her, but then Elder Tang suddenly fell ill. She’s in such distress, it would be utterly inhuman to pursue her now!”

Jiang Jinsang nodded, “So at this time, what you need is to silently contribute.”

“That’s exactly what I was thinking.”

Qi Zeyan had truly worn his heart on his sleeve in this time, only to finally realize that the delicate flower belonged to someone else, snatched away by a “brother” in an act of love theft.

After Jiang Jinsang and the others left, the hospital room was left with only the unconscious elderly man, Tang Wan and Zhang Liyun.

“Wanwan, let me go to the cafeteria to get you something to eat; you can’t just not eat.”

“There’s no need to trouble yourself; I’m not hungry.”

“I’ll go buy you something to eat. The elder hasn’t recovered yet, and you can’t let your own health collapse.”

Tang Wan was about to say something when Zhang Liyun had already walked out.
