When He Ci returned to the hospital that evening, he found the ward empty. He asked a nurse and learned that he had been discharged.
He Ci had been calling Su Ning's phone non-stop, but no one answered. Worried that something had happened to Su Ning, He Ci decided to ask Luca to investigate.
Cui Ying walked over and whispered in He Ci's ear that she was less worried after learning that Su Ning had been taken away by her parents.
"A-Rang, go and find out why they were in such a hurry to leave."
A-Rang was very efficient. He Ci knew that all of this was his mother's doing, and he was so angry that he rushed to He Zhan's ward.
When Zhu Xia saw He Ci's aggressive demeanor, she assumed that Su Ning had complained to him, and she felt somewhat dissatisfied.
"What kind of attitude is this? We are your parents. What kind of spell has that woman cast on you? Are you trying to take care of me and your father as well?"
He Ci slammed his fist on the wall. "Mom, your son has never been interested in any girl. Su Ning is the only person I want to marry. Why are you doing this? Are you only satisfied when your son is unhappy?"
"Su Ning is still injured, and you're already in such a hurry to send her away? Have you even thought about what would happen to your son if something happened to her?"
Zhu Xia was speechless for a moment, not expecting them to leave so quickly. He Zhan was also a romantic when he was young. Seeing He Ci reminded him of his younger self. In the end, he still married Zhu Xia according to his family's wishes.
“Don’t blame your mother, it was my idea. This time, you’ve almost offended half the gang because of that woman. You need to give Yu Zhengde an explanation.”
He Ci sneered, "You think you're afraid of him? Your explanation is that you'll break me up with Su Ning and then marry his daughter? Dream on."
The plane landed in the early morning, and it was too late to get a ride back, so Zhu Zhou took them to a hotel nearby.
After a five- or six-hour flight, Su Ning was feeling the strain, and cold sweat began to bead on her forehead.
Zhu Zhou bent down and picked her up. Su Ning did not refuse; she was too exhausted to walk any further.
Perhaps because she was too weak, Su Ning had already fallen asleep in Zhu Zhou's arms. The group arrived at the hotel room, where Zhu Zhou put Su Ning on the bed, and Li Mei covered her with a blanket, closed the door, and left.
At the door, Zhu Zhou and Su Qiang were still standing outside. Li Mei knew that Zhu Zhou liked Ning'er, and now she was also willing to entrust her with that person, as long as that person was not He Ci.
"Xiao Zhu, tell your aunt, do you still like Ning'er?"
Zhu Zhou was taken aback by the question. He liked her, of course he liked her! He dreamed of marrying Su Ning, and had even asked a matchmaker to propose marriage.
“Auntie, Ning’er has already taken up residence in my heart. She loves He Ci. You can’t force a relationship. I want to see her happy.”
"Xiao Zhu, let me tell you this! Ning'er will no longer have any contact with He Ci. I will arrange a marriage for her at home. If you still like her, you can come to our house to propose marriage."
Li Mei thought a lot along the way. The quickest way to make Su Ning forget He Ci was to find her a husband. Once she had a new relationship, she might forget He Ci.
She only had one daughter, and she wanted to give Su Ning the best of everything. Zhu Zhou was a good candidate, and he was also in love with her daughter. This was not a bad match for her.
Zhu Zhou really wanted to agree, but he hadn't asked Su Ning's opinion yet. The two had just agreed to be friends during the day, and he couldn't take advantage of her vulnerability. He had to wait until Su Ning truly accepted him.
“Auntie, let’s ask Ning’er about this first. She’s the person involved, and we should respect her opinion.”
“I really like Ning’er and I want to marry her, but not now. I’ll wait until she forgets that man. If I propose now, we might not even be able to be friends anymore.”
Zhu Zhou saw things very clearly. He knew that He Ci, that madman, wouldn't let go so easily. Who knows, he might come looking for her again someday, and the two of them would be back together. At that point, he and Su Ning probably wouldn't even be able to remain friends.
