Chapter 95 The truth comes out
Mu Jia listened to him.
"The news of my divorce from Xie Ling is still being kept secret from both families, and no one knows about it yet."
He lowered his eyes, a bit calculating, "So the two families still agreed that Xie Ling would take care of me. But after I wake up, she can't come here every day." Having said this, he raised his eyes and looked at her expression, "Can you come and help take care of me these few days?"
Mu Jia showed a hesitant look on his face.
For a moment I didn't know how to react.
Cheng Yu'an noticed her expression and smiled. "I'm in bed right now, and there's nothing I can do... You don't have to come every day. Just come over once in a while, is that okay?"
Look of pleading.
Mu Jia had no room for refusal.
I had to say, "Then I'll check my time."
"good."
The topic was quickly brought to light.
The next day, Cheng Yu'an called her and told her about the taxi driver incident. "The police have identified a suspect and contacted me yesterday. They may need you to come forward to identify him."
Mu Jia listened.
"It's hard to explain in a few words over the phone. Jiajia, are you free to come over after get off work today?"
What else could Mu Jia say?
She had no choice but to say "OK" and left the company a little early to rush to the hospital.
Xie Ling had indeed not been here. As she stepped into the corridor, she heard two nurses talking about how it would be better to notify the families of the injured in Ward 312, otherwise no one would take care of them all day... Listening this, Mu Jia pushed open the door of Ward 312.
Cheng Yuan saw the person coming and a smile quickly appeared on his face:
"Jia Jia, come and sit here. Would you like to have an apple?"
There was a fruit basket on the bedside table next to the bed.
Mu Jia walked over and asked him, "Do you want to eat?"
Cheng Yu'an wanted to shake his head, but when his eyes fell on her, he nodded after a moment, "Okay."
Mu Jia took two apples.
After cleaning, I sat on a chair next to the bed and peeled the skin.
She was absent-minded and her hands were nearly cut by the knife several times. Cheng Yuan noticed it and asked, "Is work not going well?"
Mu Jia was stunned for a moment, "Oh, no."
She was thinking of Xie Siyan.
She quickly peeled an apple and handed it to Cheng Yu'an.
Cheng Yu'an's gaze fell on the remaining apple, "You don't want to eat it?"
"You eat it."
Mu Jia wasn't in the mood, but she still chatted with Cheng Yu'an. As night fell, she headed home. On the way, she received a call from Song Mingxi, "Jia Jia, what are you busy with lately?"
Song Mingxi's tone was slightly hesitant.
Mu Jia thought she wanted to share her new marriage, "I'm not busy."
Song Mingxi hummed, and after hearing Mu Jia ask her, "What do you want to say?", she quickly denied it, "No."
"Just a phone call to say hello."
——
Mu Jia took care of Cheng Yu'an for a week.
That is to say, he would visit after get off work on weekdays, but Cheng Yu'an's attitude became more and more attentive and warm.
on Monday.
After completely dealing with the last police incident, Mu Jia said calmly before leaving the ward, "I've been busy lately, so I might not be able to come here every day."
Cheng Yuan nodded quickly.
"good."
Mu Jia asked again, "Do you have anything else to say? If not..."
Her subtext was obvious. Cheng Yu'an suddenly stopped her as she was about to leave, "Jia Jia, what have you thought about what I said before?"
Mu Jia said, "Hmm?"
Cheng Yuan looked straight into her eyes and said, "Get back together with me."
Mu Jia instantly regretted not leaving earlier.
She shook her head, embarrassed, "I think I've made it very clear before..."
Cheng Yu'an got the answer he expected, but his expression didn't relax for a moment. "Jia Jia," he lowered his voice, "I want to tell you something."
Under Mu Jia's inquiring gaze, he said word by word:
"Si Yan is on a blind date."
…
Mu Jia rushed out of the ward.
On the way, Cheng Yu'an's words kept echoing in his mind, "He's on a blind date with the daughter of the Shen family. It's spread all over the social circle. The girl is young, but she's very attentive and makes Xie's mother happy. The two of them have been going out together recently..."
Mu Jia didn't listen anymore.
She recalled that Song Mingxi repeatedly hesitated to speak.
Midsummer, noon.
Mu Jia appeared outside the revolving restaurant at the time and place given by Cheng Yu'an. The waiter came over cautiously to ask if she had a reservation. She ignored him and looked inside through the glass door.
The tall man sat at the dining table, and Mori Liang's eyes fell on the girl opposite him.
Shen Xingchu muttered to herself as she flipped through the menu, "I'm tired of the food here..."
"If you get bored, just stay hungry."
Xie Siyan showed some impatience and reached out to take the menu from her.
Shen Xingchu reacted quickly. When someone reached out, he quickly took away the menu with a triumphant smile on his face. "Just because I'm tired of you doesn't mean I won't rip you off."
She quickly raised her hand and called the waiter, "Give me a portion of the most expensive dishes here, such as abalone, sea cucumber, and king crab."
To others, the interaction between the two looked like a couple in love, with the man being a few years older than the woman.
Shen Xingchu is quite cute.
As soon as they entered the door, someone noticed that many eyes around them were vaguely fixed on the beautiful couple.
Shen Xingchu himself also realized it. After he finished speaking, he smiled and kicked Xie Siyan under the table, "Hey, you're not going to refuse to pay later, are you?"
Before he could figure out what was going on, Mu Jia walked in, picked up the cup on the table next to him, and splashed water all over Xie Siyan's face.
The cold liquid slid down Xie Siyan's superior jaw line, and the water marks meandered over the thin and sharp Adam's apple, leaving a wet mark on the collar of the white shirt, tightly sticking to the collarbone.
Xie Siyan stood up instantly, his face still stained with water, but he didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, he exuded a dangerous sense of oppression. His brows were slightly furrowed, "Mu Jia?"
Mu Jia turned and left.
Shen Xingchu said to him without fear of trouble, "Brother Si Yan, you go and handle it. I will be a good boy."
Xie Siyan looked at her deeply and ran after her.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was ignited by this sudden episode. Just now, they were only observing it secretly, but now it was already openly happening.
Shen Xingchu was relatively calm.
The waiter came over to ask if she wanted to continue serving the dishes, and she said, "Hmm," "It's not like I can't pay the bill."
Then he muttered, "Let's go back and ask him for reimbursement."
Mu Jia walked out in high heels and hurriedly pressed the elevator button.
The elevator door slowly closed within her sight.
She was breathing, but her head was like paste, and she walked numbly to the first floor lobby.
The person behind me finally caught up.
Xie Siyan tightly grasped her wrist, lowered his eyes, and his chest rose and fell:
"I can explain."
"You don't need to explain."
Mu Jia shook off his hand and turned away.
Unfortunately, the car she called didn't arrive, so she could only wait alone on the roadside. Xie Siyan caught up with her again, and he got out of the car, grabbed her waist, and forced her to get in.
