Tonghua came to Hangcheng People's Hospital, and the door of Li Ji's ward was closed.
Holding flowers in her hand, she knocked on the door gently, and soon there was a noise from inside the ward.
The door opened, and standing in front of Tonghua was a middle-aged woman in her 40s, with red eyes and a haggard look.
The woman asked, "Hello, who are you?"
Tonghua handed the bouquet of flowers to the woman in front of him and said, "Excuse me, is this Li Ji's ward? I'm his colleague, Tonghua, and I'm here to visit him."
The woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Oh, you are my son's colleague. Come in."
Tonghua walked into the ward and saw Li Ji lying on the bed. His left leg was hanging in the air and wrapped in bandages. Now he was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and he couldn't see clearly what was going on.
There was a middle-aged man standing next to her. Tonghua guessed that he should be Li Ji's father. Tonghua greeted him and the middle-aged man nodded to her.
Tonghua turned to ask Li Ji's mother: "Auntie, I heard that Li Ji was in a car accident yesterday. How is he now?"
Before Zhang Zhen could say anything, she started crying, which made Tonghua so panicked that she quickly took out a piece of paper from her bag and handed it to her.
Li Ji's father, Li Wenjie, interrupted: "Okay, okay, stop crying. It's just an ordinary car accident. The injuries are not serious."
Zhang Zhen glared at him and said resentfully, "Your son's been in a car accident, and you don't even care? You still have time to make sarcastic remarks here."
Although this car accident was not serious, it was the first time her son had been in a car accident. She had been worried a lot when her son was sick before, let alone such a serious thing as a car accident now.
Li Wenjie sighed and said, "The doctor has already said that it's just a leg injury. I just need to rest for a while and I can be discharged from the hospital."
Ever since his wife received the call from the hospital last night, she has been crying non-stop. If you didn't know better, you would think something big had happened in his family.
Li Wenjie looked at Tonghua with a hint of apology and said, "I'm sorry to have made you make such a special trip. My son's injury isn't serious. It's just that my wife was overly worried, which led to a misunderstanding."
The incident happened suddenly. This morning, Li Ji's leader called to ask why Li Ji didn't come to work. It happened to be his wife who answered the phone. I don't know what his wife said that made Tiansheng send employees to express their condolences.
After hearing this, Tonghua felt much more relieved: "Then why hasn't Li Ji woken up yet?"
Hearing this, Li Wenjie stepped forward and nudged Li Ji's body, saying, "Son, wake up. Don't sleep any more. A colleague is here to see you."
It turned out that Li Ji was actually sleeping, and not unconscious due to the serious car accident as Tong Hua thought.
Li Ji woke up slowly and said sleepily, "What happened? I didn't sleep well all night. What's going on now?"
After he was sent to the hospital last night, the hospital called his parents, and by the time his parents arrived, he had already undergone surgery.
The doctor had already said that his injuries were not serious, but his mother always felt that his car accident was very serious. Once he fell asleep at night, he would not wake up again. All night long, she would wake him up as soon as he fell asleep, and wake him up as soon as he fell asleep, and this cycle would repeat.
He was exhausted last night, and only had a chance to sleep after the doctor came to check on him in the morning and once again assured his mother that his injuries were not serious.
Tonghua took a step forward and said earnestly, "Li Ji, are you okay?"
Li Ji opened his eyes and saw that it was Tonghua who came to see him. Just as he was about to sit up, he felt a sharp pain in his left leg.
"hiss--"
Tonghua quickly stepped forward, and his mother also stepped forward with concern and said, "Son, are you okay? Don't move for now. What do you want? Let me help you."
After saying that, he did not forget to look Li Ji's whole body up and down, fearing that he would be injured again if he moved.
Li Ji felt uncomfortable, afraid of losing face in front of Tonghua, so he stiffened his neck and said, "Alright, alright, I'm not a baby anymore. I can do it myself. You guys should get out of here right away."
When he was at home, his mother had always taken good care of him, almost meticulously. But now that Tonghua was here, his sense of chauvinism had awakened, and he didn't want Tonghua to feel like a child who needed to be taken care of.
Zhang Zhen was still worried and said, "Can you do it by yourself? Let me stay here and take care of you."
At this time, standing aside, Li Wenjie spoke: "Let's go, since our son said he is fine, there is no need to worry. Let's go back first. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Li Wenjie put his arm around Zhang Zhen's shoulders and prepared to send her home. It was really useless for them to stay here now. His wife had to stay here to watch their injured son and she felt bad too. This would also affect his son's condition.
It’s better to go home and have a good rest.
After Li Ji's parents left, Tonghua walked to Li Ji's bedside and said apologetically, "Is it because of what I told you yesterday that you were distracted while driving? I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Li Ji's mood also became depressed: "You don't have to feel sorry for this, it was just wishful thinking on my part..."
"No, that's not the case. You're a good person. I rejected you for my own reasons."
There is no doubt that Li Ji is a good person. Since she entered Tiansheng, Li Ji has taken good care of her, but for some reason she doesn't have that kind of feeling towards him.
Li Ji mustered up the courage to ask, "Can I ask why you rejected me?"
Looking at the other person's sincere eyes, Tonghua couldn't bear to say such blunt words as "I don't like you". Originally, he had a car accident because of her. What if he couldn't get over it...
Tonghua said tactfully: "Look, the company doesn't allow office romances, so you can find someone else to like."
Tonghua felt that this reason would not hurt him but would also allow her to reject him. Sure enough, Li Ji's expression softened a lot after hearing this reason.
Li Ji looked at Tonghua with a burning gaze, his tone carrying a hint of anticipation: "If we are no longer in the same company, will I have a chance to be with you?"
Tonghua comforted him casually: "Maybe!"
Tonghua didn't think that Li Ji would give up his job at Tiansheng for her. After all, Tiansheng was a big company, and many people were trying their best to work there.
Tonghua stayed there with Li Ji for several hours, even bought him lunch, and only left after seeing him fall asleep.
