When Cheng Nan returned to the office, he saw Chu Xiaoyu standing in front of the desk, silently packing her things.
Although he had some guesses about the reason why Chu Xiaoyu packed up her things, Cheng Nan decided to pretend he knew nothing about it.
She deliberately asked: "Doctor Chu, why are you packing up, aren't you going to work?"
Chu Xiaoyu paused while holding the things. She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice calm. "The hospital gave me a few days off."
Hearing this, Cheng Nan showed an extremely surprised expression on her face, as if this news was a complete surprise to her.
She glared and asked, "Doctor Chu, is it because of what happened last night?"
"Did the director punish you?"
Chu Xiaoyu stopped what she was doing, slowly raised her head, and her eyes met Cheng Nan's.
There was a hint of annoyance in her eyes. "Yes, it's because of what happened last night."
Cheng Nan noticed that Chu Xiaoyu was a little excited. "Doctor Chu, don't be so angry. I just want to care about you."
Chu Xiaoyu knew very well that Cheng Nan was Yao Yao's good friend, but the relationship between Yao Yao and her was not harmonious.
In Chu Xiaoyu's view, Cheng Nan's "concern" at this time seemed more like a hypocritical courtesy.
"Thank you, I'm fine, Dr. Cheng, go do your thing!"
Chu Xiaoyu's tone was a little stiff, and she obviously didn't want to continue talking to Cheng Nan.
After saying that, she picked up a few things she usually used, turned around and walked out of the office quickly.
Cheng Nan looked at her leaving back, feeling a little proud.
It would be great if she didn't come back, she would lose a strong competitor.
Chu Xiaoyu took her things back to the car, her emotions no longer under control.
She buried her face in her hands and cried out.
After a while, the phone rang suddenly, and she quickly tore off some pieces of paper to wipe the tears from her face.
Seeing the caller ID, Chu Xiaoyu hesitated for a while before pressing the answer button.
"Hello."
Hearing her voice, Bai Heng felt something was wrong.
"Chu Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you? Are you crying?"
Chu Xiaoyu quickly denied: "No, what are you calling me about?"
"I want to tell you that those people won't be able to get out in a short time, so don't worry."
"Still, your dear, we are already looking for him. I think we will find him soon."
"You don't have to worry about these. My sister-in-law said you went to work, so I won't disturb you at work."
"That's it for now."
When Bai Heng was about to hang up the phone, Chu Xiaoyu called out, "Bai Heng."
Hearing the voice, Bai Heng put the phone back to his ear again, "Well, what's wrong?"
Chu Xiaoyu sniffed and said, "Thank you. Actually, you don't have to do this."
Bai Heng said, "We are all friends, don't be polite."
"I'll call you when I get the news."
Chu Xiaoyu responded softly: "Okay."
Seeing Bai Heng's name, Chu Xiaoyu felt anxious.
She knew she shouldn't think about unrealistic things.
Even if Bai Heng didn't have a girlfriend, they couldn't do it.
What's more, no matter what his girlfriend thinks of him, she herself looks down on herself.
Chu Xiaoyu didn't want to think about these upsetting things anymore.
It's good to have a holiday. She hasn't been in good shape recently and it's just right for her to have a good rest.
Chu Xiaoyu drove back home, took a set of clean clothes, and drove to Shen Qingli's place.
Shen Qingli was a little surprised to see Chu Xiaoyu coming back, "Aren't you going to get off work in the evening?"
"Why are you back so early?"
Chu Xiaoyu pretended to be relaxed and said, "The hospital gave me a few days off and told me to go home and have a good rest."
Hearing this, Shen Qingli asked, "Does the hospital know what happened to you last night?"
Chu Xiaoyu shook her head, "I didn't say that."
"Well, it's good to rest for a few days. Yi will be here soon. She will also have a few days off this time, which is perfect."
Chu Xiaoyu forced a smile on her face: "Well, it just so happens that we can all have a good rest."
Shen Qingli looked at Chu Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, don't worry about the loan shark issue, they will take care of it."
"I heard from Yan Chen that he didn't sleep last night. He was sorting out the evidence of those people's crimes and sent it over again early this morning."
"I've known him for so long, but this is the first time I've seen him take something so seriously."
Shen Qingli spoke while observing Chu Xiaoyu's reaction.
Chu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "It's really troublesome for him. I'll treat the κΊ¶ family to a meal in a couple of days."
Shen Qingli asked tentatively: "Xiaoyu, don't you realize that he cares about you?"
When Chu Xiaoyu heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
Even though she felt differently about him, she had to face reality.
"Sister Ali, Bai Heng said that because we are friends, it is very likely that he did it for your and Mr. Zhou's sake..."
"But I'm really grateful for what he did for me."
Shen Qingli wanted to say that Bai Heng treated Chu Xiaoyu differently. When she was about to speak, Pei Yi ran in from outside.
"Ali, Xiaoyu."
She ran to them and stood in front of them. Seeing Shen Qingli's injured hand, she frowned and said, "Ali, what happened to your hand?"
"Why is it still in plaster?"
Shen Qingli sighed softly, "It was an accident, a broken bone."
"Is it that serious? Why didn't you call me to tell me?"
"Knowing that you were injured, I came back to see you earlier."
"How long will it take to get better?"
Speaking of this, Shen Qingli's eyes dimmed, "I don't know the details yet. I still have to go abroad for surgery. If everything goes well, it will take one or two months."
"What? You have to go abroad for surgery?"
Shen Qingli nodded. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Tell us how you've been doing recently."
Because Pei Yi has no fixed time for filming recently and is often still filming in the middle of the night, they have rarely contacted each other recently.
Pei Yi sat down next to Chu Xiaoyu and said, "I don't do that. I memorize lines, rehearse, and film every day."
"I was really sleepy during this period. I slept for three hours at most every day."
"I can even fall asleep while walking now."
Pei Yi tilted his head and saw the red mark on Chu Xiaoyu's neck, "Xiaoyu, what's the matter with the red mark on your neck?"
"Are you hiding something from me?"
"You have a boyfriend?"
Speaking of this, Chu Xiaoyu's mind flashed back to the scene of those people grabbing her last night, and her hands began to tremble unconsciously.
Seeing this, Shen Qingli and Pei Yi were both shocked.
Shen Qingli quickly said: "Xiaoyu, it's okay, you are safe now."
"I'll take you upstairs to rest for a while."
Pei Yi:? ? ? ?
Shen Qingli and Pei Yi came out of the guest room, and Pei Yi asked, "Ali, what happened to Xiaoyu?"
"Why does she look so distraught?"
Shen Qingli told the story again, and Pei Yi said angrily: "I will kill those who were stabbed."
