Chapter 290: Serious Matter
Chi Muzhen's heart was already in turmoil, but he was still trying to remain calm on the surface.
"What evidence do you have?!"
Chi Xuan smiled sarcastically, "Sister, do you need any more evidence? Why don't you go ask that firefighter?"
Chi Muzhen took a deep breath and said coldly, "Please leave! I won't believe a word you say!"
Seeing that she actually believed what he said, but just didn't want to admit it, Chi Xuan slowly stood up and looked down at her.
"I really sympathize with Shi Yiheng. He rushed into the fire to save you, and he suffered many sequelae as a result. But Brother Yun Ting has been hiding this from you. Chi Muzhen, think about it carefully. If Brother Yun Ting really loves you, how could he be willing to lie to you?"
"roll!"
Seeing her ugly expression, Chi Xuan smiled and turned away.
The goal has been achieved, so I won’t stay to see Chi Muzhen’s pitiful appearance.
After being the only one left in the office, Chi Muzhen took a deep breath and dialed the number from last night, "Go ask the so-called firefighter who saved me! I want to know the result within an hour!"
After hanging up the phone, Chi Muzhen felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and he fell onto the sofa.
From the moment Chi Xuan said Shi Yiheng's name, she knew that what she said was true.
Countless guilt and regrets surged up in her heart. If she had insisted on checking at that time, perhaps she would not have been deceived by Huo Yunting.
And Shi Yiheng had clearly saved her, so why did he join Huo Yunting in deceiving her?!
Thinking of Brother Cheng's attitude when she went to see Shi Yiheng last time, she probably knew about this too.
She took out her cell phone to contact Brother Cheng and asked him to come out and meet her.
Brother Cheng already knew that the person who performed the surgery on Shi Yiheng was Chi Muzhen, so his attitude towards her became much better and he agreed to meet her.
On the way to meet Brother Cheng, Chi Muzhen received a call from Huo Yunting.
She didn't answer and waited silently for the call to hang up automatically.
Half an hour later, Chi Muzhen received a message as soon as he got off the car.
[After asking, I found out that the firefighter was indeed involved in the rescue. However, when he arrived, you and Shi Yiheng were both unconscious in the hallway. Shi Yiheng was desperately protecting you, his head still bleeding. Later, Mr. Huo's people found him, asked him to play your savior, and gave him a sum of money to keep the incident a secret.]
Even though he had already guessed the result, Chi Muzhen's heart still couldn't help but writhe.
Huo Yunting knew that it was Shi Yiheng who saved her, but she still kept it a secret. If she had not decided to perform surgery on Shi Yiheng a week ago, the success rate of the surgery might be even lower now.
Her eyes turned cold, she put away her phone and walked into the cafe.
"Miss Chi, what do you want to talk to me about?"
On the way to meet Chi Muzhen, Brother Cheng guessed that Chi Muzhen was probably going to tell him about Shi Yiheng's postoperative precautions and didn't think much about it.
Chi Muzhen sat down opposite him and looked at him calmly.
"Brother Cheng, why did Shi Yiheng hide this from me when he saved me?"
Brother Cheng was stunned for a moment, then looked away guiltily, "Miss Chi, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand? It was clearly you who saved Yiheng."
"Oh!"
Chi Muzhen chuckled and spoke slowly, "I've already found evidence that the person who saved me was Shi Yiheng. It's no use lying now."
Cheng Ge unconsciously clenched his hands under the table, took a deep breath and said, "It's not that I want to hide it from you, it's President Shi who won't let me say it. Yiheng was unconscious at the time, and after waking up, he knew that President Shi and President Huo had teamed up to deceive you. He didn't want to affect your relationship with President Huo, so he didn't allow me to mention it again."
Chi Muzhen closed her eyes, not expecting it to be because of this.
Shi Yiheng was afraid that it would affect the relationship between her and Huo Yunting, but Huo Yunting hid the matter from her for his own selfish reasons and because of his anxiety about gains and losses.
Has he ever thought about how he would feel when he finds out about this one day?
"After he saved me, was he unconscious for a long time? That time when I met you at the First Hospital of Beijing, was that hospitalized friend you mentioned him?!"
After knowing that it was Shi Yiheng who saved him, Chi Muzhen matched many details.
Brother Cheng nodded. "He was in a coma for three days. After waking up, he has been recuperating in the First Hospital. When I met you in the hospital, I asked him if he wanted you to know about his hospitalization, but he wouldn't let me."
Chi Muzhen felt guilty and her eyes turned red unconsciously.
"He has been suffering for the past six months, right?"
She had previously encountered a patient whose blood stasis was compressing the nerves. When the pain came, the patient felt worse than death and could only bang his head against the wall to relieve the pain.
If she had known this from the beginning, she could have performed surgery on him half a year ago, and he wouldn't have suffered for so long.
Brother Cheng was silent for a moment, then whispered, "It was more than just pain. At first, he could still film by taking painkillers, but later, the painkillers had no effect on him. Two people had to watch over him every day to prevent him from banging his head against the wall due to the pain."
Chi Muzhen took a deep breath and said slowly, "Why is President Shi willing to hide this from me together with Huo Yunting?"
"It seems they have reached some kind of agreement, and Shi Zong doesn't like you. He thinks you're not worthy of Yiheng and wants to sever the connection between you two."
"I see. Thank you for telling me all this."
Brother Cheng left quickly. Chi Muzhen sat in the cafe for a long time, and Huo Yunting also made countless phone calls.
Finally, she swiped to answer the call.
Huo Yunting's worried voice came, "Zhenzhen, where are you? Why haven't you come yet?"
Chi Muzhen pursed her lips, her voice a little hoarse, "On the way, about half an hour to arrive."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Huo Yunting's voice was gentle, but Chi Muzhen just felt cold at the moment.
How much sincerity is there in his gentleness?
She gave him many chances, but in the end, she was always disappointed.
This relationship should end.
Chi Muzhen took a taxi to the Sky Garden. As soon as she walked into the restaurant, she saw that it was dark. She frowned unconsciously.
After hesitating for a moment, he still called Huo Yunting.
"I'm at the restaurant entrance, are you sure you're in the Sky Garden?"
"Just come in."
After hanging up the phone, she slowly walked into the restaurant. Because the restaurant was pitch black, she could only turn on the light of her mobile phone.
As soon as she walked in, she smelled the scent of roses and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Suddenly, all the lights in the restaurant came on.
Chi Muzhen squinted uncomfortably, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw that the restaurant was decorated with champagne roses everywhere, especially the ceiling, which was covered with champagne roses. She felt like she was in a world of roses.
She pursed her lips, a vague guess rising in her mind.
Huo Yunting appeared at the end of the corridor, holding a bouquet of flowers and slowly approaching her.
After standing in front of her, Huo Yunting knelt on one knee, like a prince in a fairy tale, looking at her with eyes full of love.
"Zhenzhen, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time. I didn't know how to cherish you before, but as we've been together time and time again, I've realized how wonderful you are. I don't want to miss even a single moment of your life. I want you to be my princess for life. Will you marry me?"
He took out the ring and opened it in front of Chi Muzhen, his eyes full of anticipation, hoping that she would accept his proposal.
Chi Muzhen stared at the ring for a while. The ring was very beautiful, so beautiful that she could hardly take her eyes off it.
If it was before she knew that he was cheating on her, she might have been moved, burst into tears, and agreed to his proposal.
But now, there was no fluctuation in her heart.
"I don't want to."
