After Ji Jingya left, Jiang Jingchu lazily picked up his cell phone and fiddled with it.
Up there, the group of brothers including Gao Fei and Xiang Dong were almost about to explode.
Old Han: "Brother Jing, what's going on? Do you know that you've taken too much trouble?"
Dongzi: "Let me admit my mistake first, Brother Jing, I swear I didn't mean it."
Han Xian: "What's the point of admitting your mistake? What were you doing before? You didn't even explain the situation when you called me!"
Dongzi: "I didn't know Brother Jing was so quick. He's only been in there for ten minutes and he's already gotten straight to the point."
Han Xian, "Ten minutes to get to the point is considered fast, but really fast, it's over in ten minutes."
Dongzi, "Brother Jing's fighting ability shouldn't be that weak..."
Old Han, "Yeah, look, it's been half an hour and not a single bubble has appeared. Sigh, I calculated that the wedding would be before Brother Jing, but I didn't calculate that I would enter the bridal chamber after Brother Jing..."
Jiang Jingchu already had a severe stomachache, and when he saw the messy messages sent by these two guys, his head started to throb with pain.
Just call Xiangdong directly.
"Are you two crazy? What the hell did you post in the group chat?"
Upon hearing this, Xiangdong patted the thigh of the woman next to him and signaled her to go away first.
After she walked away, he smiled awkwardly into the phone.
"Brother Jing, you've been dry for so long, are you feeling refreshed today?"
Jiang Jingchu cursed and remembered that Ji Jingya said that Han Xian and Xiangdong came when he was taking a shower. He wondered if this guy had misunderstood something.
"I'm wondering if you two are free? Ji Jingya and I have nothing."
Xiangdong said "Oh" in a nonchalant tone.
"It's okay if there is one. You are already an engaged couple, so just sparring with each other beforehand as a test."
Jiang Jingchu licked his back teeth.
"I wanted to drink, but she wouldn't let me. As it turned out, the wine spilled all over us. That's all. Do I need to explain this to you all again?"
When Xiangdong heard this, he immediately sat up straight, the playful look on his face disappeared, and the corners of his lips were stretched into a straight line.
"Brother Jing, you are not kidding me, right?"
Jiang Jingchu held his stomach, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"You think I'm idle? Stop talking nonsense. I'm hanging up."
"Hey, hey, wait, Brother Jing!"
Xiangdong thought it was over, glanced at the phone screen, and saw that the call was still in progress, so he swallowed.
"Brother Jing, this misunderstanding of yours has really gotten out of hand."
"When we went to your room just now, Qin Huan was there too. Ji Jingya came out in a bathrobe to open the door and said you were taking a shower, and then..."
When Xiangdong said this, the receiver suddenly fell silent. After a while, Jiang Jingchu's voice came through like ice.
"And what?"
Xiangdong touched the back of his head in frustration.
"Then she said, 'As long as you're okay,' and turned and left."
Jiang Jingchu was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. Xiangdong chased after him and said,
"Brother Jing, to be honest, when Old Han and I saw that scene, we were both confused. If you really want to be with Qin Huan, then you should explain things to her right away."
Hearing this, Jiang Jingchu's face turned pale. After a long while, he uttered three chilling words:
"That's not necessary."
The innocent are innocent. She didn't even ask a question, which means she doesn't care that much.
…
Qin Huan ran out of the hotel and looked at the cars coming and going on the street. For a moment, she didn't know where she was or where to go.
When she suddenly saw Ji Jingya wearing a bathrobe just now, her brain was suddenly shocked and she did have many absurd thoughts.
But she still had a bit of rationality. Every moment she spent with Jiang Jingchu in Mingxi Town was still so vivid in her mind. He said that as long as she was willing, he would stay with her for the rest of her life.
She believed that those words were absolutely true. Jiang Jingchu had never lied to her. Even though she had hurt him so much back then, he was unwilling to do anything to hurt her.
Thinking of this, Qin Huan found it increasingly difficult to breathe. It felt like someone had hit her heart hard, and the pain made her unable to breathe.
She just suddenly felt so sorry for Jiang Jingchu. How sad he must have been when he saw her and Wen Li together...
…
In the next few days, Jiang Jingchu never contacted Qin Huan once, as if he had disappeared from her sight.
Qin Huan wasn't sure if he was too busy or if he was really hurt and didn't want to get involved with her anymore.
She tentatively contacted Gao Fei once, saying that the VR renderings of Jinghewan were already out, and asked Jiang Jingchu when he was free to visit the company.
As a result, the reply she received was that Jiang Jingchu was very busy and asked her to send the renderings to his private email address.
After hearing this, Qin Huan still didn't understand anything.
On this side, Gao Fei hung up the phone and looked at the sick Jiang Jingchu with concern.
He was wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, with an IV tube in his hand, and a faint look of illness between his brows.
"Mr. Jiang, do you want to tell Miss Qin that you are in the hospital?"
Jiang Jingchu hadn't turned the page of the document in his hand since Qin Huan called. Upon hearing the words, his deep eyes darkened.
"Need not."
Just as he finished speaking, the door of the ward was opened and the crisp sound of high heels came from afar.
Yuan Mei, wearing a moon-white slim-fitting cheongsam and carrying a limited edition platinum Hermès bag, walked in gracefully, followed by the dean and a group of stomach disease treatment experts.
The first time I saw Jiang Jingchu, a trace of worry flashed in my eyes.
"Why is it so serious all of a sudden? Didn't I tell you that your stomach is not feeling well and you should drink less?"
He glanced at Gao Fei accusingly again.
"As a senior assistant, I have to advise him both at work and in life. I can't just let him do whatever he wants!"
Gao Fei lowered his head and responded,
"I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Jiang Jingchu uttered a "tsk" sound when he heard this.
"What does this have to do with Gao Fei? It's just a common stomach ulcer. Could you please not make such a fuss just by coming?"
"I'm in so much pain I'm in shock, or is it just a common stomach problem?"
Yuan Mei tried to contact Jiang Jingchu for a few days but failed. Yesterday, she called Jiang Chengwang and learned that Jiang Jingchu had suffered a gastric ulcer attack and was in so much pain that he went into shock and was hospitalized.
I was so anxious that I flew back to North City overnight.
"You want Dean Li to tell you in person whether you can drink alcohol recklessly in the future."
Upon hearing this, Dean Li stepped forward cautiously.
"Boss Jiang, you really can't drink this wine anymore. Luckily, it's just a stomach ulcer this time. Next time, it might be a gastric perforation or something worse."
Jiang Jingchu said "hmm" in annoyance.
"I understand. Go ahead and do your own thing."
As the group filed out, Jiang Jingchu felt his breathing became smoother. He looked at Yuan Mei again.
"If you have any other instructions, please tell me all at once. I'm very sleepy and want to rest."
Yuan Mei came over not just because Jiang Jingchu was sick. He glanced at Gao Fei, who nodded knowingly.
"You talk to Mr. Jiang. I'll go out and wash some fruit."
Only after Gao Fei left did Yuan Mei sit in the nursing chair beside the bed.
"What happened between you and Jingya on the day of Han Xian's wedding?"
Jiang Jingchu didn't even blink.
"Nothing happened."
"Nothing happened, and he said he wanted to go abroad the next day?"
Jiang Jingchu said "Oh",
"Their studio has a place for studying abroad, and we've already discussed it before."
Yuan Mei also knew about this. Jingya had mentioned it to her at the beginning. It was because of this that Yuan Mei discovered that there might be a problem between her and Jiang Jingchu, and by the way, she found out about Qin Huan's return to China.
But at that time, Yuan Mei clearly remembered that Jingya was not so determined to go abroad, and when she attended Han Xian's wedding two days ago, she still wanted to develop further with Jiang Jingchu.
But yesterday, Ji's mother suddenly called her anxiously to tell her that Jingya was already making preparations to go abroad.
Yuan Mei had a hunch that it wouldn't be that simple, so she called Jingya, but she refused to say anything. She had no choice but to come in person to test Jiang Jingchu's attitude.
"Xiaochu, tell me honestly, are you still thinking about breaking off your engagement with Jingya?"
