Chapter 436 Chapter 436 She Lied
She was startled for a moment, and quickly straightened up, her eyes full of surprise. "You're awake?! Do you feel any discomfort? I'll go get a doctor..."
Jiang Yu quickly stopped her, his voice sounding a little weak: "No need! I'm fine now."
Shen Qinghuan frowned and looked at him intently for a while, until she found nothing wrong, and then she believed his words. But she still said coldly: "Anyway, your body is your own. If you feel it's okay, then it really is okay."
Jiang Yu pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled in an extremely helpless manner.
After a moment of silence, he asked softly, "Have you been guarding here all this time?"
Shen Qinghuan collected her thoughts and said lightly, "You wish! I'm such a busy person, how could I possibly wait in the hospital for you to wake up!"
Jiang Yu was still smiling, as if he didn't care at all, but his gaze towards Shen Qinghuan gradually became deeper.
Shen Qinghuan pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably guilty.
She stood up and said, "Since you're awake, I'll leave first."
Jiang Yuwei raised the corner of his mouth and couldn't help laughing, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"How can I not be anxious? I still have a lot of things to do. I also have to go see Li Meng. If you need anything, you can find a nurse. I will hire one for you at my own expense."
Now that he was awake, she didn't want to stay there for even a minute longer.
The awkward atmosphere made her feel at a loss all the time.
"Shen Qinghuan!"
Jiang Yu called her by her full name.
Shen Qinghuan paused slightly, and her body stiffened slightly. "Is there anything else?"
Jiang Yu raised his eyes, his dark and deep eyes fell on that plain little face without a mistake. "I remember you said that as long as I wake up, you will forgive me, right?"
Shen Qinghuan: “!!”
Can you deny that she said such a thing?
In that situation, she was so flustered and anxious that she spoke without thinking.
"You heard wrong! If there's nothing else, I'll leave first!"
Shen Qinghuan left the words behind and turned to leave.
Next second.
Her slender wrist suddenly tightened, and the man's long, bony fingers clasped it tightly.
"Jiang Yu! Let go!"
The man leaned lazily against the head of the bed, the slight smile on the corner of his mouth revealing an indescribable weakness.
But his fingers were so strong that they gripped her wrist tightly, and she couldn't break free no matter what she did. Shen Qinghuan was so angry that her face changed, and she glared at him hatefully.
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows, "Although I fainted at the time, I could still hear your voice."
He just looked at her quietly. Although he was very weak, his eyes were so strong that it was impossible to ignore them.
"You heard wrong!"
Shen Qinghuan denied it without hesitation.
Jiang Yu curled up the corner of his mouth, pulled her with a little force, and her whole body fell onto the hospital bed.
Shen Qinghuan was horrified and subconsciously protected her lower abdomen.
The moment their eyes met, Jiang Yu seemed to understand something. His gaze slowly moved down, finally stopping at her slightly flat belly. "You, you are pregnant?"
Shen Qinghuan ignored Jiang Yu and took the opportunity to break free from his restraints.
A clear red mark was left on the slender wrist.
In Jiang Yu's eyes, Shen Qinghuan's silence meant that she admitted it.
So, she is pregnant!
Jiang Yu's expression changed slightly, his eyes fell on that plain little face, and he opened his mouth slightly, "The father of the child..." Could it be him? He remembered their stay in the Aurora Village B&B, that night, they were extremely affectionate together.
He didn't have the courage to ask further. Shen Qinghuan had already divorced him, so how could he have the right to question her!
"Not you!"
Shen Qinghuan took over his words and lied without blushing or beating her heart.
Jiang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He still smiled and said, "The father of that child is... Huanhuan. Even if we are not husband and wife anymore, we are still family. If you have time, can you let me meet the father of the child in your belly?"
Shen Qinghuan: "Sorry! It's not convenient to meet!"
Looking at the indifferent expression on her face, Jiang Yu suddenly smiled, his eyes full of bitterness, and even a hint of helplessness, "What's inconvenient? Is he ashamed to be seen?"
"Anyway, it's inconvenient! I have to go now. I'll come see you later."
Shen Qinghuan left without stopping and turned away without looking back.
This time he didn't call her back, but only said gently: "If he treats you and the child badly, then you can bring the child back and I can protect you."
Shen Qinghuan paused for a moment, then strode out of the ward without stopping.
The door behind her slowly closed, and she leaned against the cold wall. It took her a long time to recover. Her chest felt stuffy, as if a huge rock weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on it.
After a long while, she pulled the corners of her mouth weakly, lowered her eyes, and smiled in a very self-deprecating way.
He! He should believe it!
After leaving the hospital, Shen Qinghuan went to several nearby construction sites to check the progress.
Except for one of them being two days late, the others were just in line with expectations. She had to call Yang Li and ask her to find someone to keep an eye on the construction schedule in the next two days.
In the hospital.
Not long after Shen Qinghuan left, Jiang Yu picked up his phone and found a phone number in the address book.
After hesitating for a moment, he dialed the number.
"Help me find the identity information of the man who has been closely associated with Shen Qinghuan in the past three months!"
No matter who the father of the child in her belly is, he wants her to have no worries. If that man treats her badly, he doesn't mind teaching him a lesson personally and then taking her back.
In the evening, Jiang Yu got the information he wanted to investigate.
"Mr. Jiang, Miss Shen's social circle is very simple. She spends almost all her time at work. Their studio only hired a male employee two months ago. When she is occasionally free, she stays at home or spends time with Miss Li Meng."
"Apart from the new colleagues in their studio, the only one left is your good friend, Barrister Xu Dongyao. Miss Shen has always had a good relationship with him. They even met a few days ago."
…
Jiang Yu's face turned very cold after listening to the news brought to him by the private detective. Why didn't he realize before that Xu Dongyao and Shen Qinghuan had such a good relationship!
He lowered his eyes, curled the corners of his mouth sarcastically, and picked up his phone to contact Xu Dongyao.
After a while, Xu Dongyao's voice came from the phone: "Ayu?"
Jiang Yu: "Are you free tonight? Invite Beichuan to hang out together."
Xu Dongyao seemed to hesitate and was silent for a moment before replying: "Okay, send me the address and I'll go there right away."
"Don't worry, I haven't left yet. Let's meet in half an hour! See you at the usual place."
After finishing the call with Xu Dongyao, Jiang Yu contacted Shi Beichuan again. It happened that Shi Beichuan was in a bad mood these two days. As soon as he suggested getting together, Shi Beichuan agreed.
