Chapter Fifty-Three: Long Unseen
He turned off his phone directly and sat with a gloomy face, lost in thought.
In the middle of the night, Shu Xiao Ai woke up.
She was woken up by many voices around her ears, and she couldn't sleep due to the noise.
The moment she opened her eyes, all her drowsiness vanished.
This is not Zhong Yuchen's home.
The white walls all around her, mixed with the smell of disinfectant, made it a place she didn't like very much - the hospital.
She sat up subconsciously and found herself alone in the hospital room.
Picked up the phone from the table, pressed it a few times, and found that it had already been turned off.
She hastily turned on her phone and found it was already three o'clock.
Shu Xiao Ai wanted to go to the toilet, but she just sat on the bed and didn't dare to go down.
This is an ordinary single room, and you have to go out to use a public toilet.
But she didn't want to go down.
The sound from the corridor outside was too familiar to her.
The first time I knew I had yin-yang eyes was when I heard this voice.
So, Shu Xiao Ai sat on the hospital bed, stubbornly holding in her urine until dawn, which was more unbearable for her than death itself.
It's daytime now.
Hearing someone talking outside, Shu Xiao Ai finally put on her shoes and headed to the toilet.
Just back to the ward, Xiao A in black clothes came with a lunch box, "Miss Shu, Young Master asked me to bring you breakfast."
"I was just about to head back."
Xiao A said in doubt, "The young master said that he still has to drink two more bottles. You'd better eat quickly, I'll go back first."
Shu Xiao Ai could only nod her head, obediently eating breakfast and then receiving an IV drip.
It was already after 8 o'clock when I finished losing this time.
She went to the toilet again and then left the hospital building.
They say the world is small, and this saying is absolutely right.
As I walked towards the front of the outpatient department, I saw a familiar face from afar.
She pretended not to see him, looking straight ahead, completely ignoring her ex-husband and his mistress.
"Shu Xia Ai, long time no see." Qi Wen Jing said.
Shu Xiao Ai stopped in her tracks, looked at the two of them and smiled, "Indeed it's been a long time, are we very familiar with each other?"
"It's acquaintance even if you're not familiar with each other, just a greeting, don't be so sensitive." Qi Wenjing was in a good mood and looked well-maintained.
Unlike Shu Xiao Ai, pale and weak with no energy.
"There's nothing else, I'll go first." Shu Xiao Ai was too lazy to bother talking to her.
"Of course there is, and in ten days we will be holding our wedding ceremony, I hope you can come and attend."
Shu Xiao Ai said without thinking, "I'm not going."
"Wen Jing personally invited you to attend is giving you face." Qin Zi Zhen spoke up, "Shu Xiao Ai, don't toast without drinking or you'll be punished with a penalty drink."
"Qin Zizhen, stop making a fool of yourself in front of me. What's the point of pretending to be something you're not? I'm not interested in your fake dignity. Besides, I don't have the money or time to attend your second wedding."
Qin Zizhen: "How coarse and vulgar!"
Qī Wénjìng nudged him, "Zǐ Zhēn, the gynecologist might be waiting anxiously, let's hurry in."
Shu Xiao Ai walked past the two of them and headed towards the hospital entrance.
For the first time, I indulged in a taxi ride back home.
As she reached the gate, she asked in a low voice, "Xiao A, has the young master left?"
Xiao A pointed to the car parked in the courtyard, "The young master's cars are all at home, what do you say?"
Shu Xiao Ai straightened her back and quickly walked to the living room door, where she saw Zhong Yu Chen half-reclining on the sofa, with his long legs placed on the coffee table, a laptop on them.
"Zhong Yuchen, I'm back." She bowed her head to change into slippers, and then smiled as she took two steps in, only to find Zhong Yuchen staring at her coldly. Her footsteps paused, and the smile on her face also stiffened.
