Jiang Xilin harbored a secret. He had been married to Shen Congyu, and then they divorced.
He had thought that if Shen Congyu ever dared to return, he would absolutely not let her off the hoo...
Chapter 210 Block
When Yuan An rushed to the hospital, Jiang Xilin was standing at the end of the corridor. He didn't smoke or do anything, but Yuan An still felt that he was in an extremely bad mood.
He took a deep breath and walked behind Jiang Xilin, "Brother Jiang, are you okay?"
Jiang Xilin's gaze fell on the downstairs, "I'm fine, the one in trouble is Shen Congyu."
"She...how could this happen?"
“Those people from the Jiang family knew that I was coming back today, so they sent someone to cause trouble for me,” Jiang Xilin said, turning around and looking at Yuan An, “What a coincidence, you asked Chen Congyu to pick me up.”
After their car was forced to stop, he asked Chen Congyu to stay in the car and not get out, but she got out anyway and blocked it for him, otherwise he would not be in the hospital now.
The original case was an accident. He explained: "I didn't expect this to happen. I just couldn't leave for the time being, so I asked her to go pick it up."
"Well, I knew they wouldn't let me back so easily, but I didn't expect them to be so eager."
"What about Chen Congyu?"
Jiang Xilin pinched his swollen brows and said, "The injury is not serious."
However, the fact that he was not seriously injured was due to his luck. The Jiang family would not use any harsh tactics, and they probably just wanted to intimidate him. But Shen Congyu did not know that no one knew the extent of his injuries before.
The doctor examined Shen Congyu and found that she had a broken rib and did not need surgery, but the pain was real. She fainted from the pain when she first came to the hospital. After the examination, she took painkillers and rested in the ward.
Yuan An wanted to ask him why he was standing outside, but he swallowed the words back.
"I'll apologize to her and involve her."
There was a lingering sense of depression between Jiang Xilin's eyebrows. "It's not you, it's me."
He really wanted to smoke, but there was a tangle of emotions swirling around in his chest, and he couldn't find a way to release them. This was a hospital, and he rarely smoked, so he finally held back.
The original case's phone rang. Something happened and he needed to follow up.
Jiang Xilin stood outside for a long time. Shen Congyu's phone was with him. Xue Mingrui called him. Maybe he couldn't get in touch with her, so he bombarded her with calls.
Jiang Xilin answered the call.
Hearing it was his voice, Xue Mingrui thought he had misheard. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "...Brother Jiang? Why did you answer the phone?"
Jiang Xilin told her that Shen Congyu was in the hospital so that she could come over later to accompany Shen Congyu.
He didn't give any specific details.
Xue Mingrui wanted to come over immediately after hearing this.
Jiang Xilin said: "Don't worry, I still have something to say to her."
He then went to the ward. Shen Congyu took painkillers and felt better now. She sat there leaning against the wall, not daring to move. Seeing Jiang Xilin come in, she covered her broken ribs with her hands.
Speak softly, or you might accidentally pull your ribs.
"Why did you just come here? I thought you ignored me."
Jiang Xilin walked closer and looked at her expression. "How are you? Are you still in pain?"
Chen Congyu nodded, "Still a little. It doesn't hurt as much now that the medicine is taking effect."
Her face was pale, and she looked much weaker after experiencing severe pain.
You can still vaguely see traces of tears in the corners of her eyes.
Crying in pain.
Jiang Xilin's Adam's apple rolled, and he said, "I'm sorry, this time it's because of me that I implicated you."
"Who on earth are those people? They are so blatant."
She had always wanted to know.
Even if Jiang Xilin offended someone in his business, it is rare to see someone so arrogant.
No wonder he has been so serious since he arrived at the airport.
Jiang Xilin: "I can't tell you for now. But you won't be in danger, don't worry."
"That's good. I still have to go to work. I don't want to ask for leave right after starting."
Jiang Xilin wanted her to rest more, but he also knew how much she loved working, especially since she had just entered a new, more professional place.
I guess I have to go to work with an injury.
He stared at her face. Her reaction was okay. She didn't cry or get angry. Because of this, he really wanted to ask.
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the car? Why did you get off again?"
Chen Congyu leaned against the head of the bed and whispered softly, "I saw you were alone and didn't know what was going on. I happened to see that person behind you trying to make a move. I thought about what I would do if you got hurt. I wanted to go down and remind you, but it was too late."
She is telling the truth.
She didn't understand why at the time. If Jiang Xilin was injured, she would be at a loss. She didn't know how to face it, nor did she know how to take him away.
As for blocking the blow for him, she did it on purpose.
She saw that the man was not holding a blade, and thought that if she blocked it, she would not be seriously injured, so she rushed forward without hesitation.
Jiang Xilin kept looking at her, hesitant to speak, and finally said: "It's my problem. I shouldn't have left with you."
"It's your problem, so can you be nicer to me next time?" She looked at him with bright eyes.
"Do I treat you badly when you don't mess with me?"
Chen Congyu said: "Bad, you don't feel it yourself."
Jiang Xilin was about to say something, but she gasped while covering her broken bone. "It hurts."
It just made Jiang Xilin finish the rest of his words early.
He made her bed head flat and let her lie down.
"If it hurts, don't move. I'll let Ruirui come over to accompany you."
Chen Congyu's hair spread on the white pillow, making her face look even whiter.
She didn't dare to move, so she raised her hand and grabbed Jiang Xilin's hand, asking him not to leave.
“When I don’t take painkillers, it really hurts.”
Jiang Xilin stood beside her bed, looking down at her and letting her hold his hand.
After hearing her words, he hummed softly.
"You're afraid of the pain, but you're still blocking it for me. I thought you'd want them to beat me up more severely so I can't bother you."
Chen Congyu curled his lips and said, “I think so, but if it really happened, I can’t seem to see it with my own eyes.”
Jiang Xilin looked away.
"Rest first, and we'll talk when you feel better."
"oh."
Jiang Xilin put her hand back and said, "Tell Ruirui if you need anything."
Chen Congyu agreed.
She still wants to go to work on Monday and really needs to have a good rest.
Jiang Xilin didn't stay long and left the ward.
Chen Congyu lay there looking at the ceiling in a daze for a long time.
After Jiang Xilin left the hospital, the matter was reported to Yan Zhao, who asked much more directly than in the original case.
Even more unbelievable.
“It’s really unexpected that Chen Congyu would help you block it.”
Not only were they surprised, but Jiang Xilin himself didn't expect it.
But now he has calmed down a lot.
Yan Zhao continued to ask: "Is she serious?"
Jiang Xilin: "Just looking at the injury, it's not serious."
Thinking of Shen Congyu's words, he smiled helplessly, "She is still thinking about going back to work on Monday."
"I really don't understand now. I thought she hated you, but now it seems that's not the case. What did she say herself?"
