Seeing this, Meng Sheng hurried forward and patted Gu Ci on the back, "Slow down, don't be anxious, take a breath, take a deep breath."
Gu Ci was coughing unbearably and pointed at the flowers on the ground, wanting to pick them up.
Meng Sheng grabbed her hand and said, "Ms. Gu, Hua is fine. There's no rush. Take a deep breath first."
Gu Ci had no choice but to do as she said. After taking several breaths, the cough finally eased a little.
Just as she raised her eyes, the blush on her cheeks spread to her earlobes and neck.
A pair of eyes filled with moisture and covered with a thin mist, just like the frost formed on the glass in the morning at this time of year, clear yet fragile.
Meng Sheng reached out and took a few tissues from the table to wipe her tears, and asked softly, "How are you? Are you feeling better? Can I call a doctor to come and see you?"
Gu Ci shook her head and pursed her lips, her voice still a little weak, "No... no thanks, I'll just... take it easy."
Meng Sheng held up the pink and white cup and brought it to her, "Drink some water to moisten your throat."
Gu Ci took a few sips of water from her hand.
He forced a smile at her, without any intention of taking out his anger on her, and said in a gentle and graceful voice, "Thank you, Director Meng. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Meng Sheng put the cup down and said with a faint smile, "That's not the case. It's my fault. I didn't explain myself clearly, which made Lawyer Pei misunderstand you."
Although Pei Sui's stern expression softened at this moment, there was still no unnecessary expression.
After hearing Meng Sheng's last words, he couldn't help but turn his head slightly to look at her, and then the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.
She did it on purpose.
When Gu Ci looked up, she just caught the look of his lips curled up as he looked at Meng Sheng.
Even the eyes that had looked at her with coldness and suspicion before, when they looked at another person, seemed to be soaked in autumn spring water.
There was tenderness, affection, and a kind of pampering that she had rarely seen.
Her breathing paused, and her heart rate on the instrument began to fluctuate again.
The words that were hanging in my throat could no longer be spoken, and I had to force them back into my stomach.
How much of what was just said did he believe?
When she lowered her head, Pei Sui had already withdrawn his gaze from Meng Sheng.
He glanced at her pale and lifeless face and the heart rate monitor next to her, then reached out and pressed the call button on it.
Gu Ci felt a shadow falling over her head for a moment, her expression slightly startled, and she looked up at him.
Pei Sui said nothing.
Fortunately, the doctor and nurse came quickly. Meng Sheng picked up the sunflower on the ground and consciously stepped aside.
The doctor examined Gu Ci and asked the nurse to give her an injection of verapamil.
Then he turned around and said to the two of them, "Gu Ci's current situation cannot be provoked or angry. You need to keep your mind as calm and cheerful as possible."
After explaining some precautions, the doctors and nurses filed out.
Seeing this, Meng Sheng didn't want to keep her any longer. He said a few polite words to her, asking her to have a good rest and he would come to see her next time, then prepared to get up and leave.
"Wait, I'll go with you."
Pei Sui called her and looked at Gu Ci, saying calmly, "You should rest. I will have the nurse guard outside until the nanny and Aunt Liu come."
At first glance, his words seem to be caring.
If his tone wasn't so cold, and his expression wasn't so emotionless, that concern would actually be more noticeable.
It won't be so jarring.
After Meng Sheng and Pei Sui left the ward, Gu Ci looked at the bunch of sunflowers that Meng Sheng brought for a long time, then smiled calmly.
It was already half past five when we left the inpatient building.
The setting sun of late spring slants across the bustling and noisy city. Honey-colored spots of light dance on the roofs of the endless stream of cars, and the gently blowing spring breeze still carries a hint of shallow warmth.
Pei Sui looked at her face bathed in the afterglow. Her already gentle features seemed to have added an indescribable warmth at this moment.
"My friend went sea fishing the day before yesterday and brought back two wild groupers. I even asked a five-star chef for advice on how to cook them. Would you like to try them? They are still fresh."
Meng Sheng was stunned and looked surprised.
If wild grouper is sold in the market, it costs several hundred yuan per pound.
Facing his eyes that were as clear and dark as obsidian, she thought for a few seconds, then smiled happily and agreed, "Okay."
Knowing that she had driven here, Pei Sui didn't say anything else, just said, "Be safe, see you home."
After six o'clock, the sky darkened slightly, and a few brilliant streaks of colorful clouds streaked across the blue-gray sky.
Either red, purple or orange.
The cherry blossoms outside the courtyard on the left bank were also drifting and falling in the cool evening breeze.
Pei Sui stopped at a nearby supermarket because he needed to buy some food. Coincidentally, Meng Sheng also needed to buy food to make liquid food for Meng Chengli tomorrow morning.
The two of them walked into the supermarket together.
They each pushed a shopping cart in to buy ingredients.
When preparing to pay the bill, Pei Sui noticed that there were some ingredients such as millet, oats, carrots, winter melon, and a few fruits in her shopping cart.
They are all light and healthy foods.
He originally wanted to pay for the entire bill, but Meng Sheng insisted, so he had to give up.
When she was about to pick up the bag, he reached out and took it, and walked out of the supermarket with her.
After the two of them got back into the car and started the engine, the cell phone in Meng Sheng's bag suddenly dinged.
It's the text message alert tone.
Her hands on the steering wheel paused for a moment, and she quickly took out her cell phone from her bag to read the text message.
[Be careful! Ning Weiwei is following you! ]
track?!
Meng Sheng's pupils shrank slightly, and he subconsciously turned his head to look around.
There were a little more people in this area in the evening. She looked around and saw a familiar figure among a group of people on the left.
But the street lights were dim, and the figure quickly hid in a building and disappeared from her sight in an instant.
She wasn't sure if it was Ning Weiwei.
Can……
Why was Ning Weiwei following her?
What is her purpose?
Pei Sui's car arrived at the parking lot before her. After waiting for five or six minutes, he saw her white Porsche finally arriving.
Seeing that her face was somewhat serious, even her brows were furrowed, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Meng Sheng looked up at him, pursed her lips and said, "I seemed to see Ning Weiwei just now, but I'm not sure if it was her."
"Ning Weiwei?"
Pei Sui frowned, "It's near Zhenhui Supermarket?"
Meng Sheng replied lightly, "Yeah, I saw it while I was driving."
Pei Sui's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, he took out his cell phone and made a call.
The call was answered quickly. He exchanged a few simple pleasantries before getting down to business.
"Could you please send me a copy of the surveillance cameras near Zhenhui Supermarket from 6:07 to 6:22?"
"It's related to the case. I can't tell you. Sorry. OK, thank you very much."
After hanging up the phone, he turned his head to look at the person next to him, "Don't worry. After we copy the surveillance video, we will see if it is Ning Weiwei."
"good."
Meng Sheng's heart calmed down a little.
After entering the elevator, Pei Sui asked again, "Has Ning Weiwei paid back the 300,000 yuan debt?"
Meng Sheng nodded and replied, "Yes, it arrived yesterday afternoon. But the part that Shang Boyu gave her has not yet been received."
"Has the verdict not come out yet?"
"not yet."
Pei Sui pondered and said, "The day before yesterday and yesterday were weekends, so it should arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"Yeah." Meng Sheng smiled lightly, "Sooner or later, her money, luxury cars, jewelry and brand-name bags will all have to be returned."
She's not in a hurry anyway.
It depends on whether Ning Weiwei can afford it.
After the time limit has expired, she can apply for compulsory enforcement from the court.
By then, Ning Weiwei will be in even more trouble.
Soon, the elevator reached the 11th floor. Meng Shengding went back to put her things away first, and then changed her clothes that were stained with the smell of hospital disinfectant.
Pei Sui didn't force him and went up first.
Meng Sheng first watered the pots of azaleas as usual, then went back to the master bedroom and changed into a set of light and casual clothes.
When he picked up his phone and prepared to go out, he found that Pei Sui had sent him his password a few minutes ago.
A perfectly normal string of numbers.
But she stared at it for a long time, then raised her eyebrows slightly, took the elevator directly to the 15th floor, and pressed the password.
The door opened with a ding, and nearby sensor lights lit up one by one.
She was so familiar with the house that she didn't even bother to look at the style of the house as she did at first. When she walked into the living room, she saw a short-legged cheese suddenly meow.
He ran to her feet and sniffed.
Pei Sui, who was already busy in the kitchen, looked at Meng Sheng and asked, "Here you are. Are you afraid of cats?"
