Fu Jingsheng called Rong Yan at noon to confirm his wife's safety.
The man didn't ask a single question about Rong Bing.
Knowing that Rong Yan had returned to the clinic, Fu Jingsheng put his phone aside and focused on his work.
At the clinic, Shen Xingzhi brought Rong Yan lunch.
The two of them ate together.
Shen Xingzhi inadvertently let slip that she had been thinking for a long time last night about finding a dormitory for Yu Wenhao to live in.
“I knew you wouldn’t ignore this,” Rong Yan said. “I also have something to tell you.”
The woman swallowed the food in her mouth.
I was just at the hospital.
"What? In the hospital? What happened to you?" Before Rong Yan could finish speaking, Shen Xingzhi asked anxiously, looking her up and down to see what was wrong.
"It wasn't me. Rong Bing was drunk and got into a car accident. She was found by a passerby this morning and taken to the hospital." Rong Yan's voice trailed off.
"You went to see her?" Compared to Rong Yan, this was nothing to Shen Xingzhi.
"Is your saintly heart acting up again?" she asked. "Didn't I say I wouldn't interfere?"
“I paid her medical bills, just consider it charity. She looked so pitiful. I knew you were going to scold me, so I didn’t dare to say anything. Xingzhi, if I really abandoned her completely, wouldn’t you think I’m heartless?” Rongyan said, linking arms with her best friend. “I only contributed a little bit of money. Actually, you and I are the same – soft-hearted and kind.”
“Yeah, sigh, I can’t just ignore Yu Wenhao either. Why am I talking about you? That’s just our personality. After all, he’s someone we cared about, how could we really not care? We all know not to be soft-hearted, but our actions are uncontrollable.” Shen Xingzhi shrugged. “If they ever wrong us again, they’ll definitely be struck by lightning.”
"Yes, even if we're struck by lightning, as long as we have a clear conscience, that's enough. Xingzhi, no matter when or what choices you make, just follow your heart." Rongyan always believed that good people will be rewarded, sooner or later.
"Let's eat, it's getting cold." Shen Xingzhi sat down. "Let's eat and talk."
"Mother Yu isn't in Tiancheng tonight, is she?" Rong Yan asked.
Shen Xingzhi replied, "They've already left. Yu Wenhao called this morning and will be here this afternoon."
"How about we have dinner together tonight?" Rong Yan suggested. "Putting aside Yu's mother, Yu Wenhao is a good person. He has helped us a lot in the past. As a friend, he probably doesn't have any other close friends in Tiancheng besides his colleagues."
"I already told him we'd have dinner together tonight, but I didn't expect you to join us too. Shall we go together?" Shen Xingzhi had already made arrangements. Since she was alone anyway, she figured she might as well share a table after get off work.
After arriving at the clinic in the afternoon, Yu Wenhao told Shen Xingzhi about his plans. He wanted to submit his resume online and rent a single room at his previous place to settle down temporarily.
Shen Xingzhi said that she is contacting people about renting a place and will choose one with a reasonable price. Once it's settled, Yu Wenhao will pay directly.
Yu Wenhao saw hope; Shen Xingzhi still cared about him.
"Thank you, I'll take on another job," Yu Wenhao said.
"Don't work too hard. There's no time limit. There's one more thing. From now on, Dr. Song will take over your treatment. His medical skills are no less than mine. Is that alright?" Shen Xingzhi discussed with Yu Wenhao.
The man agreed without hesitation.
After arriving home in the afternoon, Yu's mother called her son to let him know she was safe and sound. She specifically asked if Shen Xingzhi had received any money. Yu Wenhao lied and said no. Yu's mother continued to give him bad advice, suggesting that Yu Wenhao either stay at Shen Xingzhi's place again, since hotels were too expensive.
Yu Wenhao didn't argue with his mother, but just impatiently said he understood and hung up the phone.
Municipal Hospital.
Rong Bing stayed for half a day, finished two IV drips, and her hands were able to move again. She picked up her phone and started watching videos.
I stumbled upon Zhou Luofa's post.
The video shows Zhou Luo taking a selfie. The woman is resting her chin on her hand, and the jade bracelet on her wrist is particularly eye-catching.
Rong Bing sneered: "What do you mean, 'Haven't taken a selfie in a long time'? Showing your face, isn't it just showing off your bracelet? You scheming bitch."
The bracelet on Zhou Luo's wrist looked to be worth at least five figures. Rong Bing zoomed in to take a closer look and suddenly remembered something.
Rong Bing likes jadeite, or rather, because the old lady likes it. Back when she was in the Fu family, the old lady always talked to her about jadeite, and gradually she also came to like it.
Fu Jingchen gave her a bracelet, similar to the one Zhou Luo was wearing. Fu Jingchen also liked jade. Rong Bing remembered that when she showed her bracelet to Zhou Luo, Zhou Luo said that she didn't like this kind of bracelet. She liked Bulgari. Why would she buy it if she didn't like it? Judging from the quality, it wasn't cheap.
"Could it be that Zhou Luo didn't buy this bracelet herself?" Rong Bing muttered to herself. She remembered that the bracelet Fu Jingchen gave her was also emerald green. Actually, she preferred white, but because it was a gift from Fu Jingchen, she lied and said she liked it even though she didn't like it.
Because of this color, Zhou Luo complained many times, saying that emerald green makes him look old, and what kind of taste does Fu Jingchen have?
Rong Bing found the photos on her phone and compared them with Zhou Luo's video. They were indeed similar. Could the bracelet have been a gift from Fu Jingchen?
The woman couldn't believe that the man who seemed so conflicted and distressed the day before was just faking it.
Rong Bing made a phone call to Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luoyi, who had moved into Fu Jingchen's office, frowned as soon as she saw the name on the caller ID.
There was no response for a long time.
Fu Jingchen was engrossed in his work when he heard the phone ring. He said, "It's okay, answer it. It won't bother me."
Zhou Luo bit her lip: "It was Rong Bing who called."
Fu Jingchen paused for a moment: "Let's hear what it is."
When the call went unanswered, Rong Bing dialed again.
"Rong Bing, what's up?" Zhou Luo answered reluctantly.
Rong Bing didn't directly question Zhou Luo about the bracelet. Instead, she said, "Fu Jingchen and I talked it out yesterday at noon. We parted amicably, and we won't have anything to do with each other anymore. Do you have time after get off work? I'm at the hospital..."
Rong Bing feigned pitifulness, telling Zhou Luo about her drunken accident and asking if he could come and keep her company for a while, as she had something to say to him.
Upon hearing that Rong Bing's request to see him had nothing to do with Fu Jingchen, Zhou Luo agreed.
After hanging up the phone, she repeated Rong Bing's words.
Fu Jingchen said, "Let her go if she wants. She won't dare to cause trouble in the hospital. Don't mention our business."
“I know. She sounded quite calm. It seems she’s really figured it out.” Zhou Luo didn’t know that Rong Bing had deliberately pretended to meet her so that she could find out about the bracelet in person.
"I hope so." Fu Jingchen rested his chin on his hand. "I'll take you to the hospital entrance tonight, and then find a place to wait for you."
"No need, I'll drive there myself. Don't worry, she won't do anything to me. She probably doesn't know I moved into your office, right? Does she have any friends in the company?"
"No, I said at the meeting that no one is allowed to disclose any company job decisions." Fu Jingchen was always wary of Rong Bing.
After get off work, Zhou Luo bought some fruit downstairs and brought it to Rong Bing, unaware that it was a trap.
