Chapter 102 He Wants an Answer
Shen Yixiao's low and magnetic voice sounded in his ears. Listening carefully, he could hear some suppressed emotions in it.
Cen Wan froze. She stared at the closed door of the examination room, her fingers slightly curled up, and for a moment she didn't dare to look at him.
Shen Yixiao already knows about his grandmother, so he will know the rest too.
She turned around slowly and saw Shen Yixiao standing there. The cold and bright lights in the hospital corridor made his handsome face look even more angular. His sharp eyes were fixed on her tightly, and there was inquiry hidden in his dark eyes, as if there was ink surging.
Cen Wan moved her lips, but her throat was dry and she couldn't utter a single syllable.
She didn't know where to begin.
Was it the sudden incident or their misplaced quarrel?
The two of them faced each other quietly, Shen Yixiao pursed his lips and stared at her without blinking.
He wants an answer.
"I..." Cen Wan had just spoken when the door to the examination room suddenly opened. The doctor came out and took off his mask. "Who is the patient's family member?"
"It's me." Cen Wan quickly stepped forward.
"The patient fell and hit the back of his head. Current examination results show no bleeding or cerebral infarction, but the patient himself is not fully conscious. It is recommended that he remain in the hospital for observation for a period of time."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
The nurse pushed grandma to the ward, and the nurse and Cen Wan followed quickly.
Cen Wan walked out a few steps and suddenly turned back to look at Shen Yixiao.
That slight glance contained so much meaning.
Shen Yixiao's eyes narrowed slightly. Since things had come to this point, he didn't mind waiting a little longer.
What's more, she probably doesn't have the mood to talk about this right now.
Ji Yuanchen and Shen Yixiao had informed each other in advance, and grandma was sent directly to the VIP ward. Because she refused to cooperate during the examination, she was fed a tranquilizer and is still sleeping.
Cen Wan stayed by the bed, watching her grandmother sleeping peacefully and snoring softly, and only then did her heart finally settle down.
She put her grandmother's hand back into the quilt, covered it, and tucked the corners of the quilt before she came to her senses.
Sister Li blamed herself a little: "I'm sorry, Miss Cen, I didn't take good care of Auntie."
Cen Wan shook her head: "How can I blame you for this?"
Compared to other people with the same disease, my grandmother is much better, but even so, she still has problems occasionally. Who can stare at someone intently for 24 hours? She can't do it either.
It is already the greatest luck that no major problems occurred.
At the door of the ward, Ji Yuanchen looked at Shen Yixiao: "Brother Yi, aren't you going in?"
Shen Yixiao looked at the figure inside through the glass, and opened his thin lips slightly: "No."
Ji Yuanchen came forward like he was presenting a treasure: "I heard some things about Miss Cen and her grandmother, do you want to hear it?"
Shen Yixiao raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Do you want to receive New Year's money today too?"
"That's not what I meant," Ji Yuanchen chuckled, "but I accept everyone who comes."
"The nursing home where Miss Cen's grandmother lives happens to be run by my uncle. I asked him to help me get some information and I'll send it to your phone later."
Shen Yixiao took out his mobile phone and transferred some money to him directly.
"Today is the first day of the new year. You should go back first, otherwise the old man will have to look for you everywhere again."
Ji Yuanchen happily took the money: "No hurry, I'll wait a little longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hurried figure rushed over.
"Is grandma okay? Where's Wanwan? Is she back?"
Jiang Yuan ran to the door panting, and before he had time to catch his breath, he threw out a bunch of questions.
Ji Yuanchen smiled and stepped forward to take credit: "Sister Yuan, I notified the hospital the moment you called me. The old lady is fine, and Miss Cen is here too."
Jiang Yuan finally felt relieved and patted Ji Yuanchen on the shoulder: "Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner another day."
She nodded to Shen Yixiao as a greeting, then pushed the door open and went in.
"Wanwan..."
Jiang Yuan walked over to Cen Wan, looked at his grandmother sleeping on the bed, and slowed down his voice: "Are you okay?"
Cen Wan repeated the doctor's words.
"That's good."
Cen Wan looked at her dusty appearance and felt a little sorry: "Why are you here on New Year's Day? What a hassle."
Jiang Yuan poured a glass of water and drank it: "It's okay to stay at home anyway. A two-hour drive is not far."
At the time, the sanatorium didn't know exactly how severe the fall was, and Cen Wan couldn't get in touch. If nothing was wrong, that would be great; at most, she'd just have to make an extra trip. But if something was truly wrong, she could stay with Cen Wan.
She knew better than anyone how much her grandmother meant to Cen Wan. She was the only relative she had left in this world.
As for the others, they can only be regarded as scum and beasts.
The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Yuan suddenly mentioned Shen Yixiao: "I see that Mr. Shen is also outside..."
Cen Wan bit her lip and whispered, "I feel like I can't hide it from him anymore."
He was still waiting for his answer.
Jiang Yuan advised her, "It's actually okay to tell him now, Wanwan. He also knows that something happened to grandma. He can find out other things even if you don't tell him."
Jiang Yuan actually had her own selfish motives. She felt bad for seeing how hard Cen Wan had been working all these years on her own. It was clear that Shen Yixiao hadn't let her go yet. If they could reconcile, Wanwan would feel much more relaxed. With someone who loved and cared for her, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.
Cen Wan lowered her eyes and said, "It's been so long, I don't even know where it all started."
At that time, things were a mess and she had no time to deal with them. She was about to collapse.
Thinking about it now, I don’t know where to begin.
Jiang Yuan reached out and hugged her: "It's okay, then you can talk about it when you want to."
"Um."
The two stayed in the ward for a while, and Cen Wan said to Jiang Yuan, "Grandma will be staying in the hospital for a few days. I'm going to go buy some things. Please help me look after her."
"good."
When Cen Wan opened the door, she found Shen Yixiao still standing there.
He was leaning against the wall by the door, one leg stretched out and the other bent casually. When he saw her come out, he didn't say a word, but just stared at her with a pair of dark eyes that were bright and fiery.
Cen Wan's fingertips twitched slightly, not daring to look him in the eye: "I'm going to buy some toiletries for grandma."
Shen Yixiao didn't force her: "Make a list for me and I'll buy it."
Cen Wan raised her eyes and said, "No need."
Chen Yixiao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Or do you want to discuss the issue with me now?"
"Thank you for your help then." Cen Wan said.
Cen Wan stood at the door and watched him turn and leave. She didn't return to her room until his tall figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.
In the ward, Jiang Yuan saw her come back and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"Chen Yixiao went to buy it." She said.
Cen Wan sat aside and looked out the window. A thin layer of snow had accumulated on the window frame.
On a snowy day like this, the sky is gray.
She remembered the medicine the doctor had just prescribed, so she stood up and left. As she walked through the cold corridor and reached the nurses' station, she suddenly noticed that all the medical staff in the hospital were walking hurriedly and nervously.
The latest report came from the TV behind me: "Our station reports that a chain reaction accident has occurred at the intersection of XX Hospital. Several private cars have been damaged to varying degrees. The number of casualties is unknown. Police and emergency personnel have already arrived..."
Cen Wan was stunned and turned around. The location of the reporter on the screen was exactly the intersection a few hundred meters in front of the hospital. In the flash of the camera, she saw Shen Yixiao's black Cullinan.
With a buzzing sound, it felt like a string in my head broke.
