The cold wind was howling and the snow on the road was thick. The three of them hunched their necks and walked with difficulty.
As soon as they walked out of the village, they heard the roar of a tractor from behind. The three turned around and saw Long Deshou driving a tractor towards the village entrance. Seeing the three of them, Long Deshou was also surprised.
"Where are you three going in such a cold day?"
"Let's go to the hospital to see Song Ruanruan." Song Zhi replied.
Long Deshou remembered that she had just asked him about Song Ruanruan's condition yesterday, and she was going to the hospital to find her today. It seemed that she was really worried about her. He couldn't help but sigh, "You two sisters have such a good relationship."
Song Zhi nodded with a half-smile and replied, "Yes."
"I'm going to the fertilizer factory in town to buy some fertilizer. I can give you a ride. If you don't mind, come on up."
Long Deshou stopped the tractor beside them and waved to them.
It was freezing cold and they didn't know how long it would take them to reach the town.
The three of them were very happy to have a ride. They quickly thanked Long Deshou and climbed onto the tractor swiftly.
The tractor was shaking violently, and the road was not easy to walk on. Not long after sitting, Song Zhi felt that her butt was broken in two. She protected her stomach in an indescribable way.
Fortunately, the tractor was much faster than walking, and they arrived in town soon.
The fertilizer plant and the hospital were not in the same direction, so Long Deshou stopped the car at the intersection.
"Walk a few steps south from here and turn left to reach the health center. I still have to go to the fertilizer factory, so I won't take you there."
He pointed the way for them and said with some embarrassment.
"Okay, thank you, Captain."
The three of them got out of the car, thanked him hurriedly, watched Long Deshou drive away in his tractor, and then turned and walked towards the health center.
When they arrived at the hospital, Song Zhi let out a faint cry.
"I forgot to ask him which ward Song Ruanruan is in."
"It's okay, let's ask someone." Nie Jinmei said hurriedly.
Fortunately, the hospital was not busy at the moment. There were two nurses chatting not far from them. The three of them went over to ask and got Song Ruanruan's ward number.
When they arrived at Song Ruanruan's ward, Nie Jinmei wanted to knock on the door, but Song Zhi reached out and pushed the door open. As soon as the door was opened, Song Ruanruan's sweet and soft voice came from inside.
"Haosi, you're back."
Song Ruanruan turned around happily. When she saw that the person who came in was not Zhuang Haosi, but Song Zhi, her expression suddenly froze.
She subconsciously clutched the quilt tightly around her, swallowed nervously, and her pupils widened slightly with surprise and fear.
Why did Song Zhi come here? Could she be here to settle a score with me?
When she thought of this, Song Ruanruan's breathing quickened.
It wasn't until she saw Rong Zhengqing and Nie Jinmei following Song Zhi into the room that she breathed a sigh of relief.
With other people around, no matter how brave Song Zhi is, he probably wouldn't dare to do anything.
"Why are you here?" she asked stiffly, a hint of embarrassment crossing her face.
"Of course I came to see you." Song Zhi replied with a forced smile.
The cold gaze made Song Ruanruan's back feel cold, and the smile on her face seemed to be unable to be maintained.
Song Zhi ignored her guilty look that was about to overflow, and just looked around the ward calmly. She was in a double ward, but there was no patient in the bed next to her, but there were signs of life on the bed, obviously someone had slept there while accompanying her.
There was also a kettle, malted milk, and some nutritional supplements such as fruits and eggs on the cabinet beside Song Ruanruan's bed. The ward was clean and everything looked in order.
Although her leg was still in a cast, her complexion was rosy and her complexion looked better than before the injury, not to mention her face which had become much rounder. It seemed that she was living a very comfortable life after the injury.
Feeling that Song Zhi's gaze was always on her, Song Ruanruan couldn't hold back her expression.
"I'm fine." She forced a smile somewhat awkwardly.
"I can see that." Song Zhi said lightly.
These words made Song Ruanruan's heart skip a beat. She always felt that there was something else behind Song Zhi's words, as if he was trying to play tricks on her.
The atmosphere in the room was a little weird for a moment.
At this time, Nie Jinmei greeted Song Ruanruan and said, "It snowed heavily a while ago, and the educated youth dormitory collapsed. We were all busy looking for a place to live, so we were delayed until now to come see you. I hope you can forgive me."
Song Ruanruan smiled awkwardly and said it was okay, but she felt even weirder in her heart.
They had never gotten along well when they lived in the same dormitory before, and now that Nie Jinmei was speaking so politely to her, it made her feel uncomfortable.
She never thought that Song Zhi would come to see her.
Not to mention that she also brought Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing.
Since entering the room, Rong Zhengqing has not spoken a word, just standing aside with a smile. However, Song Ruanruan could feel her eyes always on her.
Song Ruanruan clenched the quilt in her hands nervously, feeling like she was being pricked by a thorn in her back.
I'm afraid these people all have bad intentions.
This made Song Ruanruan's heart alarm bells ring.
Song Zhi looked at Song Ruanruan's uneasy expression quietly, with a sneer on his face.
"Everything is fine here. I also heard about the collapse of the educated youth dormitory. Are you all okay?" Song Ruanruan asked stiffly.
Before Song Zhi could speak, Nie Jinmei immediately said, "We're all fine, and we have Song Zhi to thank for that. I twisted my leg while looking for someone in the mountains that day. If Song Zhi hadn't woken up in the middle of the night and taken me out with him, I might have been buried under the rubble."
When Song Ruanruan heard her mention the experience of going up the mountain that day, her expression changed. She secretly looked at Song Zhi and swallowed nervously.
Song Zhi always looked calm, which made her feel even more uneasy.
Staying in the hospital recently, Song Ruanruan was also worried that Song Zhi would tell others about the day he abandoned her.
But after a long time, no one came to see her, and Song Ruanruan gradually felt relieved.
After all, only she and Song Zhi were present that day, and Song Zhi had no evidence. Song Ruanruan had already thought of a countermeasure. If she told anyone, she would deny it.
Until Song Zhi came over today, the suppressed anxiety in Song Ruanruan's heart surged again.
After she and Song Zhi experienced that incident, they had completely torn each other apart. Why did she come to see her today?
A few people were chatting awkwardly when suddenly a man pushed the door open and walked in.
He held a bowl of steaming hot noodles in his hand. As soon as he entered the door, he placed the noodles in front of Song Ruanruan with deep affection and said gently, "Ruanruan, I bought the noodles. Eat them while they're hot."
After he finished speaking, seeing that Song Ruanruan didn't say anything for a long time, he realized that something was wrong in the atmosphere. He turned around and saw Song Zhi and the others standing beside them.
Seeing Rong Zhengqing was there, Zhuang Haosi's expression suddenly changed.
