"Su An, you..." Gu Jingchen stood there in a daze.
Su An's tears burst out, and she could no longer hold back and ran away.
"Su An!!!" Gu Jingchen stared at her back blankly and fell into deep thought.
What did she mean by that...
What does "You can't see me at all, let alone notice me" mean?
Doesn’t she have another lover?
Could it be...
Gu Jingchen's heart suddenly sank, and he felt an indescribable feeling.
For some reason, he had an inexplicable expectation for that guess in his heart.
Hoping that Su An's sweetheart is really him.
This idea surprised himself, but to be honest, he didn't hate Su An.
After living together for these years, although he and Su An did not have an actual husband and wife life, they were very happy.
He admired her knowledge and liked her elegance and grace, but she always kept her distance from him, so nothing happened between them.
Ye Kexin hid behind the rockery early and heard the entire conversation between the two.
When she saw Su An leaving, she knew that Gu Jingchen might catch up with her, so she hurriedly ran out from the rockery, screamed deliberately, and fell to the ground.
Gu Jingchen was about to chase Su An when he suddenly heard Ye Kexin's cry. He hurriedly looked over and, considering her condition, he had to go over and help her up.
"Xin'er, why are you here?" Gu Jingchen grabbed Ye Kexin's wrist, glanced at her miserable face, and frowned.
"I saw you haven't come back for a while in the ward. I was worried that you would be scolded by your grandfather, so I couldn't help but run out."
Ye Kexin leaned weakly in Gu Jingchen's arms, with her head lowered, her soft hair covering her cheeks, and looked up at Su An who was standing at the end of the corridor.
She smirked, her eyes full of provocation.
When Su An heard Gu Jingchen's voice, she couldn't help but look back. She just happened to see him hugging Ye Kexin, the two of them whispering with their heads down, behaving very intimately.
Seeing this scene, Su An was so heartbroken that he almost suffocated. He dared not look anymore and ran away quickly.
Gu Jingchen supported Ye Kexin and looked up to call Su An, but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Brother Jingchen, my legs hurt so much. Can you carry me back to the ward?" Ye Kexin leaned on Gu Jingchen's chest, her voice extremely weak.
"Okay." Gu Jingchen retracted his gaze, picked up Ye Kexin by the waist, and walked quickly towards the ward.
Back to the ward.
Ye Kexin was lying on the hospital bed. Seeing that Gu Jingchen looked absent-minded, she pretended to be uncomfortable and coughed a few times to attract his attention.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jingchen looked at her quickly.
"I'm fine. Maybe I just caught a cold." Ye Kexin sighed weakly.
Gu Jingchen poured her a cup of hot water and sat beside the bed with a very serious expression, as if he was thinking about something important.
No matter how dumb Ye Kexin was, she could see that it must be Su An's behavior that had affected him.
Gu Jingchen didn't understand, but Ye Kexin knew that Su An had liked Gu Jingchen for many years.
Gu Jingchen's eyes darkened as he considered Mr. Gu's reaction. "Xin'er, I'm afraid the promise we made to each other won't be fulfilled so soon. I can't marry you."
“…”
䯬䛈.
The thing I was most worried about was the eczema that happened.
Ye Kexin's face turned pale and she bit her lower lip lightly. She felt very uncomfortable, but she chose to retreat in order to advance, and laughed at herself.
"I know, even if I'm stupid, I can see that you have my sister in your heart. I understand... Brother Jingchen, don't you feel any psychological burden? This is my fault from the beginning. I shouldn't have forced you to marry me. It's my fault..."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but shed tears. She looked extremely pitiful, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.
Gu Jingchen frowned immediately, took a tissue to wipe her tears, and said stiffly, "Don't think too much, it's not because of Su An."
"Brother Jingchen, please don't lie to me anymore. Even if you really gave up on me because of my sister, I will understand you and won't blame you. After all, she is my sister." Ye Kexin sobbed while wiping her tears.
Gu Jingchen, “…”
He frowned and said nothing more.
He never liked women being entangled, especially when they kept questioning what they had said.
Ye Kexin noticed his expression change slightly, and quickly changed her tone. She choked a few times and said with a hint of grievance, "If it's not because of my sister, then what else made you regret it?"
Gu Jingchen didn't want to tell her about Mr. Gu's condition, so he just said softly, "Don't worry about these things. Just focus on recuperating and get well first."
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Ye Kexin didn't press him any further and nodded obediently. The previous situation was finally over.
Seeing that she understood, and considering Ye Kexin's situation, Gu Jingchen pondered for a moment and said seriously, "But don't worry, I will still find a way for you to deal with your situation. I will definitely not embarrass you or let you get criticized."
With his promise, Ye Kexin achieved her goal.
She immediately took Gu Jingchen's arm and said softly, "Brother Jingchen, with you by my side, I don't have to worry about anything."
"Yeah." Gu Jingchen nodded.
Just then...
“Knock knock knock—”
There was a knock on the door.
Gu Jingchen gently pushed Ye Kexin's hand away and looked towards the door.
Tang Ze came in through the door with a lunch box in his hand, expressionless. He placed the lunch box on the table and said respectfully to Gu Jingchen, "Mr. Gu, the meal is here."
Gu Jingchen nodded and said to Ye Kexin, "Eat first, I'll come see you later."
Upon hearing this, Ye Kexin suddenly grabbed his arm, looked at him pleadingly, and said pitifully.
"Brother Jingchen, you haven't eaten a meal with me since I came back. Can you stay with me this time?"
Gu Jingchen wanted to refuse, but seeing her insistence, he had no choice but to agree.
Tang Ze brought the bedside table and placed it on the railings on both sides of the bed, arranged the food in the lunch box in order, and left.
There were two bento boxes inside. Ye Kexin handed one to Gu Jingchen and said with concern, "You stayed with me for so long last night and didn't eat much. It's a good opportunity to eat together."
Gu Jingchen did not refuse. He opened the lunch box and saw a bowl of beef pasta inside. He picked up the fork and tasted a few bites.
"Brother Jingchen, yours looks delicious. I want to try it too." Ye Kexin said, deliberately extending her chopsticks over and taking a bite of his pasta.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchen frowned slightly, looked at the chopsticks in her hand, felt uncomfortable, then put down the fork and never moved again.
He is a mysophobe and hates sharing eating utensils with others. Once someone touches his food, he will not eat it.
Ye Kexin noticed his strangeness and thought he was disgusted with her. She asked with some dissatisfaction, "Why don't you eat?"
"Not really hungry." Gu Jingchen evaded the question.
“…”
Ye Kexin felt uncomfortable, but seeing his gloomy expression, she didn't dare to say anything.
