Chapter 747: Chapter 747 Temptation (1)

In the hospital room, Qian Xueying smashed a second cup.

An assassination attempt had ironically benefited Gan Yuan, and seeing the media almost unanimously singing her praises, Qian Xueying nearly gnashed her teeth to pieces.

"How could this happen?" Grabbing Xiuyi’s collar, fury blazed in her eyes. "You tell me, Xiuyi. Why has it come to this?"

"Miss..."

Xiuyi was at a loss for words.

Before Qian Xueying could say anything more, the door to the hospital room was pushed open from the outside.

Both turned their heads to see Gan Yuan, dressed in an elegant gown, walking in. Qian Xueying was taken aback and hurriedly withdrew her hand from Xiuyi’s collar and leaned back against the pillow.

Accidentally leaning on her wound, she grimaced with a sharp twitch of her eyebrows.

"Miss Ying!"

Gan Yuan walked up to her bedside, her gaze sweeping over the shards of the cup on the ground. "This is..."

"I accidentally shattered it," Xiuyi quickly cleaned up the pieces from the floor. "Miss Gan, please have a seat!"

"No need," Gan Yuan said, looking down on Qian Xueying from her position. "I came here specifically to check on Miss Ying’s injuries and to express, on behalf of the Royal Family and Ajue, our gratitude to you."

Qian Xueying could only muster a harmless smile. "You’re too kind, Miss Gan. Such a trifle is not worth mentioning. You’re being too polite. Please, when you return, tell the Duke that he need not concern himself with this matter."

"How could I not?" Gan Yuan took the bouquet passed to her by Helen and placed it on the table, then slightly turned her face as Helen gestured. Two young women in nurse uniforms immediately walked in. "These two are nurses I’ve brought with me. They’ll be taking comprehensive care of you during your hospital stay."

"Miss Ying!" Mary immediately stepped forward to greet Qian Xueying with a bow.

"This... this is unnecessary; there’s no need!" Qian Xueying busily waved her hands. "Xiuyi is here to take care of me; that’s enough."

"Indeed, Miss Gan, I can look after Miss properly, and besides, there are nurses here already," Xiuyi also hurried to agree.

"I believe the butler is certainly capable, but no matter what, Miss Ying is a young lady, and it might be more convenient for another young lady to care for her, don’t you think?" Gan Yuan smiled elegantly. "The Duke personally asked me to arrange this. These two are highly professional nurses from the Royal Hospital. If you refuse, I won’t have an explanation for Ajue!"

Even as eloquent as she was, Qian Xueying couldn’t find a reasonable excuse to decline. "I’m just... so very embarrassed!"

"Then it’s settled!" Gan Yuan glanced sideways at Mary. "You two must take good care of Miss Ying. Do not leave her side 24 hours a day. If anything should happen to her, I won’t let you off the hook!"

"I’m truly grateful," Qian Xueying seethed inside, but could only express thanks outwardly. "Then I’ll gladly accept your offer."

"You saved Ajue’s life; you are a benefactor to our family. Please never stand on ceremony with me," Gan Yuan reached out and patted her shoulder. "I hope Miss Ying recovers quickly and gets discharged soon. When that day comes, I will personally come to pick you up."

"Miss, you have an interview in half an hour," Helen reminded from the side.

"Then I must take my leave." Gan Yuan withdrew her hand. "As you know, Ajue is quite busy and might not have time to look after you. Call me anytime you need to; I’ll be there to help with any problems you might face."
