Chapter 441 Chapter 441 Rejected
On the other side, Shen Qinghuan quickly drove to the hospital.
As soon as she pushed open the door of the ward and walked in, she saw Li Zixiao. Shen Qinghuan was stunned at first, then she smiled maliciously and said jokingly, "I thought I was quite early! I didn't expect that someone was earlier than me!"
Li Zixiao blushed a little embarrassedly, but still said politely: "Miss Shen, you are joking. I am on vacation today too. I wanted to come over early to accompany Li Meng, but I didn't expect that she would be discharged today."
Shen Qinghuan stepped forward and said, "She was worried that you were busy with work, so she didn't tell you that she was discharged from the hospital today."
Li Zixiao turned his head and looked at Li Meng.
Li Meng felt guilty and lowered her head unconsciously, not daring to look into those eyes that were so sincere that they made her feel ashamed.
In fact, she had told him many times not to waste his time on her. The only thing she wanted to do now was to work hard. She didn't want to fall in love, let alone get married...
But every time she said this, Li Zixiao looked as if he didn't care. He said that if she didn't want to have a relationship or get married now, then they wouldn't have to have a relationship or get married. They would just be friends, very ordinary friends. When she wanted to have a relationship one day, she could just tell him.
At that moment, she was completely enveloped by a strong sour feeling.
She felt that she had let down the most sincere person in the world.
"Don't just stand there like idiots, you two! Have you completed all the discharge procedures? Are you leaving now? Or later?"
Shen Qinghuan was confused by their silence.
Li Meng came back to her senses, her cheeks slightly hot, and said, "It's all done. You can go back now."
"Was it Officer Li who helped with the discharge procedures?" Shen Qinghuan smiled with half-closed eyes.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was intentionally trying to bring Li Meng and Li Zixiao together.
However, she was just testing the waters. If Li Meng didn't want to, she wouldn't force her, let alone get involved.
Li Zixiao didn't mind her joke, "It's just a small favor, not a big deal!"
Shen Qinghuan smiled and said, "Now... it seems I have to trouble Officer Li again." She deliberately pointed to the luggage on the ground.
Li Zixiao understood and quickly picked it up.
Li Meng curled her lips in annoyance. She wanted to laugh but tried hard to hold it back. She was just hoping for chaos in the world!
The three of them left the hospital quickly.
When they met Shi Beichuan, they were just about to get on the bus.
Li Zixiao politely opened the car door for Li Meng, and just as Li Meng was about to get in, she heard a man's angry voice: "Li Meng!"
Li Meng was stunned for a moment, then looked over and saw Shi Beichuan striding towards her.
She remembered that his name seemed to be Shi Beichuan. He said so himself. He also said that he was her ex-husband, but there was no trace of him in her memory, not a single bit. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember.
However, since Shen Qinghuan didn't stop him, it means that what he said was true.
He was her ex-husband, that was all.
Looking at Shi Beichuan walking towards them, Li Zixiao protected Li Meng behind him without leaving any trace, and secretly warned him: "Mr. Shi."
Shen Qinghuan pulled Li Meng into the car.
Secretly, Shen Qinghuan didn't want to see Li Meng and Shi Beichuan come into contact.
"Huanhuan, I want to say a few words to him." Li Meng said hesitantly.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and pulled Li Zixiao away, "Let's go wait for her in the car."
Li Zixiao glanced at Shen Qinghuan suspiciously, but he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he followed her suggestion.
Li Meng and Shi Beichuan did not walk far, only a few steps away from their car.
Li Zixiao only needs to turn his head to see Li Meng through the car window.
Shen Qinghuan sat in the driver's seat with his hands on the steering wheel, tapping the steering wheel lightly with his fingertips from time to time, neither anxious nor irritable.
Li Zixiao reluctantly withdrew his gaze, looked at Shen Qinghuan in confusion, and asked, "Miss Shen, why did you agree to let Mengmeng talk to Mr. Shi alone? Aren't you worried that Mr. Shi would hurt her?"
Shen Qinghuan glanced at Li Zixiao and said seriously, "Li Meng is an independent individual. Although she doesn't remember some of her past, those people still appear in her life. I used to think that since she doesn't remember them, then I shouldn't contact them anymore, but then I figured it out."
“It’s better to be proactive than passive.”
"Since I can't avoid it, I might as well face it head-on. It's better for her to be like this now than to be in a panic."
Upon hearing this, Li Zixiao couldn't help but admire Shen Qinghuan's long-term thinking.
After a while, Li Meng ended her conversation with Shi Beichuan and opened the passenger door without looking back.
Shen Qinghuan curled her lips, looking helpless.
There is so much space in the back seat, but she insists on sitting in the passenger seat. How much does she dislike Officer Li?
"Li Meng! Li Meng!"
Shi Beichuan rushed forward and slammed the car window hard.
Li Meng didn't even glance at him again. She turned to Shen Qinghuan and said, "Huanhuan, drive!"
Shen Qinghuan sighed slightly in his heart, said nothing, and started the car skillfully.
Apart from Li Meng and Shi Beichuan themselves, no one else knew what they talked about. Shen Qinghuan was not that curious and was focused on driving, so Li Zixiao would not ask any more questions.
Li Meng took the initiative to speak, "He wants to remarry me and take care of me."
Shen Qinghuan: “!!”
Li Zixiao was anxious: "???"
Before they could say anything, they heard Li Meng sneer again and continued, "What does he think of me? He can marry me if he wants and divorce me if he wants?! Although I don't remember why I wanted to divorce him in the first place, I know one thing: if he is tolerant enough towards me, I will definitely not give up..."
"Mengmeng!" Shen Qinghuan felt sorry for her. "It's all in the past. Don't think about it anymore."
Li Meng said "hmm" softly and stopped thinking about the lost memories.
Suddenly thinking of something, she turned her head to look at Li Zixiao, her eyebrows curved into a beautiful arc, and asked with a smile: "Officer Li, you know, I have forgotten some of the past, and those pasts may be beyond my ability to bear. So, I'm sorry, I can't accept you, at least not now."
Some things always have to have an end and a beginning, such as what happened with Shi Beichuan and what happened with Li Zixiao.
Shen Qinghuan had foreseen that Li Meng would make such a decision.
Li Zixiao was stunned for a moment and said nothing, as if he had already expected this result.
"It doesn't matter."
"sorry."
…
After Shen Qinghuan sent Li Meng home and settled her down, he drove to the construction site and took the client to inspect the house.
By the time I finished, it was already afternoon.
Just as she was hesitating whether to go back to the studio or home, the cell phone in her bag suddenly rang.
Tao Jin?
Because she has been very busy, she hasn't seen Tao Jin for a long time. They do chat on WeChat occasionally, but they always talk about some insignificant trivial matters.
Looking at his name on the phone, Shen Qinghuan hesitated for a moment and put the phone to his ear: "Hello? A Jin?"
Next second.
Tao Jin's helpless voice came from the phone: "Second sister, our mother wants to invite you to dinner at home, or out for dinner. She knows she can't invite you out by herself, so she forced me to call you to invite you out."
Shen Qinghuan laughed and said softly, "She has already asked me out, and I told her I'm very busy and don't have time."
"So, since she can't do anything to you, she wants me to speak up."
"Well, you guessed it right. However, it's not as simple as asking me out for dinner. She probably needs my help with something else."
Listening to Shen Qinghuan's words, Tao Jin was immediately indignant. "Second sister, how could she be like this! When she didn't need your help, she didn't even bother inviting you to dinner. Now that she needs your help, she's thinking of inviting you to dinner."
Shen Qinghuan smiled.
She really does not agree with Ms. Xiang Huili's approach.
However, the idea of calling her to dinner was most likely Tao Dayong's idea. Ms. Xiang only cared about taking care of her husband and children and being a housewife who didn't have to worry about anything. How could she think of calling her to dinner!
If she really cared about her, how could she not look for her for so many years!
In fact, in this world, not all parents love their children.
"Do you want me to agree to her?"
"Second sister, you have to make this decision yourself. However, I miss you very much. Can I come to your place for dinner tonight?"
Listening to Tao Jin's pitiful tone on the phone, Shen Qinghuan burst out laughing, her eyebrows slightly curved, "You come to my house alone to eat for free, aren't you afraid that your mother will beat you up?"
"You can keep it from her."
