Han Yue also realized Zhou Luo's intentions.
She just pretended not to understand.
"Zhou Luo, what are you doing in the orthopedics department?" Rong Yan couldn't stand it anymore and changed the subject.
Zhou Luo lied and said, "I twisted my ankle while trying to reach something high up."
"Oh, then you need to get some rest." Rong Yan said, tugging at her mother-in-law's sleeve to signal that it was time for her to leave.
Han Yue stood up: "Yes, get some rest. We're leaving now, don't overthink it."
"Auntie..." Zhou Luo wanted to continue the conversation.
Han Yue brushed her hand away: "Goodbye, little girl."
After Han Yue and Rong Yan came down from the orthopedics department, they were worried about Fu Jingchen.
Zhou Luo must have said the same things to Fu Jingchen. Fu Jingchen is currently infatuated with Zhou Luo, and seeing her pitiful appearance, he will most likely seek revenge on Rong Bing.
If Fu Jingchen gets locked up again, wouldn't things be chaotic? She has to stop it.
Han Yue called Fu Jingchen to ask if he was busy, saying she had something to tell him.
"Mom, I'm not at the company. Is there anything I can't say over the phone?" Fu Jingchen asked a friend to find a detective, but they haven't met yet.
"I need to tell you in person. Where are you? I'll come find you." Han Yue became even more worried when she heard that her adopted son wasn't at the company.
“I’ll call you later. I have to talk to a client later,” Fu Jingchen said.
"Well, or I can wait for you at the hospital."
"Okay, anyway, I'm going to see Zhou Luo. Mom, I'll hang up now, we'll talk later." Fu Jingchen was in a hurry to drive.
Han Yue had no choice but to go home first.
——
In the evening, Fu Jingchen forgot to call his adoptive mother after finishing his business.
The man bought some groceries at the supermarket, planning to cook a soup himself and deliver it to Zhou Luo.
Although the woman alone in the ward longed to see Fu Jingchen, she knew that Fu Jingchen's work meant he couldn't stay with her all the time. Whenever there was a commotion outside the ward, Zhou Luo would excitedly glance over.
She waited anxiously until it was almost dark before finally seeing Fu Jingchen.
The man was carrying a thermos.
“Jing Chen,” Zhou Luo said cheerfully.
"Did you miss me?" Fu Jingchen kissed the woman's cheek before he even put his things down.
Zhou Luo quickly turned her head away: "I'm ugly, aren't you scared?"
Fu Jingchen touched the woman's earlobe and said, "I like the marks on your body. They're not ugly to me at all."
"I made this soup myself. Let's see how it tastes." Fu Jingchen opened the lunchbox.
Zhou Luo put her arms around the man's waist: "Wait, let me hug you, Jing Chen. I miss you so much, but I don't dare to call you because I'm afraid it will affect your work. Next time, don't waste your time making soup for me, just come over, okay?"
Fu Jingchen smiled and moved the woman's hand away: "Nothing bought outside is as clean as what I make, silly girl. If you miss me, just call me. It won't affect my work."
"I also have good news for you. I just met with your attending physician, and I offered to take you home to recuperate. He said that's fine, but if you don't mind the trouble, you'll have to come over every morning to change your dressing." Fu Jingchen didn't want to leave Zhou Luo alone in the hospital.
"At the company, I delegated some of my work during the meeting today. During your recovery period, I will try to spend half a day with you every day." Fu Jingchen's words touched Zhou Luo.
She nestled against the man's chest: "Although I really want you to spend more time with me, I can't let you interfere with my work. I'm already very happy that you can come back to stay. Just stay by my side tonight."
"It won't affect my work. The company will operate normally. As for whether I earn more or less, nothing is more important than you." As long as Fu Jingchen feels it's worth it, that's enough.
Zhou Luo cupped Fu Jingchen's face in her hands, her eyes glistening with tears: "You really don't care about my appearance, Jingchen. Did I save the galaxy in my past life to meet you in this one? You really love me so much."
The ward was like a scene from a Qiong Yao drama.
Han Yue waited until evening to bring dinner to Shen Xingzhi, but before she received a call from her adopted son, she called him again.
Upon seeing the caller ID, Fu Jingchen slapped his forehead: "Oops, I forgot about my mom."
He pressed the answer button: "Mom, I'm sorry I was too busy this afternoon and forgot to call you back. I'm at the hospital now, where are you?"
"I'm coming right away," Han Yue said.
When Zhou Luo heard Fu Jingchen call out "Mom," she asked, "Did Auntie need something?"
"I don't know. They didn't mention it on the phone this afternoon. Maybe they wanted to ask how you were doing." Fu Jingchen didn't know that Han Yue and the others had come to see Zhou Luo.
“She and Rong Yan came to see me.”
"Huh? She's been here?" Fu Jingchen asked in shock. "Rong Yan came too? She didn't say anything, did she?"
"No, they just wanted to know what was wrong and told me to rest more," Zhou Luo said.
"I knew my mom still cares about you. After all, we'll be family in the future. Luo Luo, get well soon. I can't wait to marry you."
“Jingchen, I also really want to marry you right away. By the way, let’s stick to the original plan with my mom. I’ve thought it through. If they ask me what happened to my face, I’ll say I was bitten by a bug and scratched myself.” Zhou Luo didn’t want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Fu Jingchen had the same idea, so everything proceeded as planned.
After delivering dinner, Han Yue talked with Fu Jingchen downstairs.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Fu Jingchen asked.
Han Yue said earnestly, "I saw Zhou Luo today. Her fair face was scratched. I felt really sorry for her. Rong Bing was too ruthless. Zhou Luo was wronged. The Fu family also bullied her. Rong Bing is too outrageous."
"Mom, you're actually siding with Zhou Luo? Don't you think we were in the wrong first?" Fu Jingchen didn't expect his adoptive mother to share his stance.
"No matter what the mistake was, hitting someone is wrong. Rong Bing has been in the Fu family for so long, and she seems gentle and obedient on the surface, but it turns out that it was all an act." Han Yue didn't actually like Rong Bing. Ever since she learned about Rong Bing and Fu Jingchen's affair, she felt that Rong Bing's values were skewed, even though Rong Bing had spent several years taking good care of the old lady.
"Mom, thank you for standing on our side." Fu Jingchen was indeed empathetic.
Han Yue continued, "Jing Chen, your brother and the others have already gotten into trouble several times. Mom doesn't want anything to happen to you again."
The fleeting gratitude that Fu Jingchen had just felt vanished with his mother's words.
It turns out that Han Yue had laid a lot of groundwork just to persuade herself to forgive Rong Bing.
"So, you want me to forgive Rong Bing and stop looking for her? You know I won't let her get away with this?" Fu Jingchen bluntly stated his thoughts.
"Jing Chen, I'm not asking you to forgive Rong Bing. I really don't want anything to happen to you again. When will this cycle of revenge end?" Han Yue was indeed not on Rong Bing's side.
“I swear I’m not biased towards Rong Bing. She has no ties, but you two are different. Why fight to the death?” Han Yue appealed to her emotions and reason. “I know Zhou Luo can’t swallow this and hopes you will stand up for her. But if you go to Rong Bing, and then Rong Bing goes to her, when will it end? Listen to me, we’ll just treat Zhou Luo even better from now on.”
