Chapter 156: Strange

Qingyuan City is close to the sea and is cooler than Jiao County.

The room had a private bathroom and a fan. Su Jiaojiao took a shower, dried her hair, and was about to take a nap when Lu Jingyou knocked on the door and handed her the clothes he had bought for her. "I bought some clothes to change into, and I brought a few for you too. If they don't fit, go change."

"Mr. Lu, I can prepare it myself." Su Jiaojiao felt her face getting hot. She planned to take a break and go for a walk in the afternoon to buy some clothes. She was not a child. She just left in a hurry yesterday and did not prepare anything.

"It's just a simple thing, you don't have to think too much about it." Lu Jingyou looked at her and turned back to his room.

The clothes he picked out fit her perfectly.

Su Jiaojiao looked at the pile of clothes and felt a little embarrassed. If she gave him money, he would definitely not want it, and it would be very troublesome to push it back and forth. But she didn't want to take his clothes for free. Mainly, she had no contact with men in this regard, and she didn't know what to do.

In his previous life, Qin Xiuming had given her flowers and various small gifts, but he had never given her clothes.

She did buy Qin Xiuming a basketball uniform and a pair of sneakers.

Thinking of this, she decided to go out for a walk when she had time and buy something for Lu Jingyou as a return gift.

When Wang Hua received Lu Jingyou's call, he understood immediately and arranged Qin Xiuming in his room. The single room here also has two beds. Because it is inside the hospital, the price is a bit higher. There are not many people staying here. The first and second floors are not full, so there is no shortage of rooms.

But there was no need for the four of them to each live in a room. It would be more convenient for him and Qin Xiuming to live in the same room.

Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao live on the second floor, which is also convenient.

In the afternoon, Su Jiaojiao woke up and didn't hear any movement from next door. She knew Lu Jingyou was also tired and must still be sleeping. She tiptoed out the door and went to the fruit shop at the hospital entrance to buy some fruit and daily necessities. She went to the fifth floor to see Ju Peijun. Ju Peijun was in good spirits. Seeing Su Jiaojiao coming over with a lot of bags, he was very touched: "Don't worry about me. The nurse will buy me whatever I need."

"No way! Just tell me what you need." Su Jiaojiao sat down and peeled an apple for him. "Uncle Ju, you drive so steadily, how could something like this happen?"

In the previous life, it was not Ju Peijun who was driving, but Qin Shuang himself.

Different locations, different circumstances, and hopefully different endings.

"Jiaojiao, what happened last night was really strange," Ju Peijun recalled. "We were walking back after finishing our work. There were few cars on the road at that time, and I don't know where that big truck appeared. We were driving normally with a green light, but it ran a red light and hit us. We had just passed the traffic light and were only a few minutes away from getting on the highway."

Traffic light intersection, large truck.

This is very similar to the previous life.

Su Jiaojiao always suspected that it was man-made.

Who wants to kill Qin Shuang?

Seeing that Su Jiaojiao was silent, Ju Peijun continued, "By the way, Mr. Wu came to see me last night. I asked him not to tell my family and to say that I was on a business trip. If you run into my mother when you get back, don't tell them. It's not easy for them to come here, and I don't want them to worry about me."

"Okay, I understand." Su Jiaojiao handed the peeled apple to Ju Peijun. "Mr. Wu came earlier than us, and he left after we arrived."

"He helped pay the hospital bills and then went to the traffic police to handle the accident." Ju Peijun took the apple, moved his casted leg, sat up, and asked, "Is Director Qin still awake?"

"Not yet." Su Jiaojiao comforted, "The doctor said that the critical period has passed. You can rest and recover. We are here for you!"

To be exact, with Lu Jingyou around, she couldn't do anything.

All she could do was to visit Qin Shuang at a fixed time to find out about his physical condition.

"We were lucky to survive this ordeal," Ju Peijun forced a smile. "Last night, my mind went blank. I didn't think to call 120 first. I just randomly dialed a number, but it went to Huang Jiajia. I tried to call 120 again, but the number went nowhere. I was desperate. I thought, if I could survive, I would quit the factory. I would go home to live a good life with my mother, my wife, and my children."

In the past few years, he has been working outside and has no time to take care of his family. The family relies entirely on his wife to support it.

If he had died last night, he didn't dare to think about what they would do... In the face of life and death, everything else is really trivial.

"You and Director Qin are blessed with good fortune. You'll enjoy your days in the future!" Su Jiaojiao comforted him. "No matter what decision you make, I think it's right. Whether you go to work or farm, we're all living our lives. There's no such thing as absolute good or bad."

As the two were talking, Wang Hua and Qin Xiuming came in.

Qin Xiuming brought a bag of fruit and placed it on the bedside of Ju Peijun. He shook hands with him with a heavy heart and said, "Uncle Ju, are you feeling better?"

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, just take good care of your mother." Ju Peijun watched Qin Xiuming grow up. He hadn't seen Qin Xiuming for a long time and felt that Qin Xiuming was like a different person. There was a courtesy and alienation in his eyes that he was not familiar with. He was no longer the big boy in his memory.

Wang Hua is not very familiar with Ju Peijun.

He stood by the window and instructed the nurse to take good care of Ju Peijun.

The nurse was a middle-aged man who looked calm and composed. He responded to all the questions and reassured Wang Hua.

"Uncle Ju, I'm relieved that you're okay." Qin Xiuming sat down beside his bed. "I want my mother to be transferred to the imperial capital so that I can see her from time to time."

Ju Peijun knew the relationship between Qin Shuang and Lu Jiaping, and told Qin Xiuming: "You must stay by your mother's side. When she goes to the imperial capital, you are the only one she has."

"I will." Qin Xiuming agreed. He turned his head to look at Su Jiaojiao. She was wearing a light pink plaid short-sleeved shirt, beige jeans, and had a bun on her hair. She stood there looking neat and tidy. He almost didn't recognize her.

Su Jiaojiao stood in front of the window, looking out.

She didn't plan to talk to Qin Xiuming.

When Qin Shuang got into trouble in his previous life, Qin Xiuming was partying with his friends and his phone was unreachable. By the time he rushed over, it was already the next day. He was lucky in this life that he could still see his mother.

The nurse came over with a medicine cart to change the dressing. Su Jiaojiao couldn't stay there, so she said hello to Ju Peijun and left the ward. Qin Xiuming followed her out and called out to her, "Su Jiaojiao, wait for me."

"Is there anything I can do for you?" Su Jiaojiao pressed the elevator button and Qin Xiuming walked over. "Thank you for coming to see my mother."

"You don't have to thank me. This is between Aunt Qin and me. It has nothing to do with you." The elevator showed that it was on the first floor. Su Jiaojiao didn't want to wait any longer, so she turned and went to the stairwell. Qin Xiuming followed her. "Su Jiaojiao, if I said anything to upset you before, just pretend I didn't say it. I won't say those things again."

He admitted that he had been reckless.

He shouldn't have said those things to her the last time he left.
