Chapter 118: What a shame
Things have come to this point. Wen Liang tried his best to avoid suspicion with Fu Zheng in the company, but Fu Zheng acted as if nothing had happened and still let Wen Liang come to his office for dinner.
Wen Liang sat down on the sofa, with a table full of her favorite food in front of her. Looking at Fu Zheng opposite her carefully preparing chopsticks and tableware for her, Wen Liang suddenly felt an urge in her heart. She really wanted to ask: Is there any possibility for them to make it public?
But before he could finish his words, Fu Zheng took the initiative to say, "Aliang, I've thought about what happened online. I actually thought about making our relationship public, but if we do, the blame will be directed at Siyi, and she will never have a foothold in the industry, and may even be ruined. The heat of public opinion won't die down, it will only intensify, and then we will lose control..."
"You don't have to tell me, I know everything."
The food in my mouth suddenly lost its taste, like chewing wax, and was difficult to swallow.
At that moment, a thought suddenly popped up in Wen Liang's mind: what did she like about him?
Do you like the humiliation and deception he has always suffered?
She actually still had some hope for him just now.
I am such a cheap person!
In the office, it became quiet.
Fu Zheng pursed his lips and wanted to say something else.
But after a moment of silence, he still said nothing. Instead, he frowned, put down his chopsticks, got up and went to the bathroom.
At this moment, the cell phone on the table rang.
Wen Liang wanted to take it and check it out, but then he thought of something and took his hand back, pretending not to hear.
The call was automatically disconnected when no one answered, and two seconds later the ringing started again, over and over again.
It rang three times and finally stopped.
When Fu Zheng came back, Wen Liang glanced at him and said, "Someone called you three times. It must be an emergency."
Fu Zheng walked to the table, picked up his phone, and asked casually, "Who?"
Wen Liang simply cleaned up the takeaway garbage and said, "I don't know. I didn't see it."
Fu Zheng suddenly thought of something, paused, and looked at Wen Liang twice.
Since that day, she never touched his phone again.
The phone rang again.
Fu Zheng saw the caller ID on the screen clearly: Wang Yan.
He hung up the phone and helped Wen Liang clean up.
Wen Liang glanced at him and asked, "Why don't you answer?"
Fu Zheng said nothing.
The secretary suddenly knocked on the door, "Mr. Fu?"
"Come in."
The secretary pushed the door open and came in, holding a cell phone in her hand. "Mr. Fu, Miss Wang called me and insisted that you answer the phone. She said Miss Chu..."
The secretary stopped talking when she saw Wen Liang was there. She glanced at Fu Zheng's face and regretted it so much that she said hurriedly, "I'll reply to her right away..."
But as luck would have it, her phone was on speakerphone for some reason, and Wang Yan's voice came out of the receiver, "Mr. Fu! If you don't want to regret it for the rest of your life, just hang up!"
The air stagnated for a few seconds.
The secretary's face turned pale and he glanced at Fu Zheng a few times.
Hearing this, Wen Liang guessed that the person who called Fu Zheng just now should also be Wang Yan.
Fortunately, she didn't touch Fu Zheng's phone, otherwise it would be hard to explain.
She glanced at Fu Zheng and said, "Take it."
It's already like this, why pretend to be blind? It only makes things more obvious.
Fu Zheng paused, frowned, took the phone from his secretary, walked to the window, and said in a faint voice, "What's the matter?"
The secretary stood aside cautiously, thinking to herself, "Boss Fu seems very afraid of Director Wen..."
On the other end of the phone, Wang Yan's voice was anxious, "Mr. Fu, I'm in the hospital now. Please come quickly. Siyi is very emotional..."
Fu Zheng interrupted her, "Where's the doctor?"
"The doctor can't help it. Siyi is not cooperating with the treatment at all. Mr. Fu, you don't know how she has been through these days. Can you just pity her?"
"Her body is her own. If she doesn't take care of it, she'll be the one who suffers in the end. Apart from work matters, I won't interfere with other matters. Let her take care of herself."
After saying that, Fu Zheng hung up the phone and turned around. Wen Liang was sitting quietly on the sofa.
After the secretary left, she asked, "Chu Siyi is in the hospital? Don't you want to go and see her?"
"Do you want me to come over?"
Wen Liang felt that this was not a question of whether she wanted it or not, but whether Chu Siyi would give up.
Sure enough, when the two were taking a lunch break in the lounge, Wang Yan called again.
Fu Zheng answered the phone in the lounge.
She heard Fu Zheng ask, "Have you used the sedative?"
"I have. But I've used it so often recently that Siyi's body has developed a resistance to it, so it's not very effective."
"Why don't you find a few more people to hold her down?"
"Siyi has already scratched two doctors..."
“…”
After a moment, Fu Zheng hung up the phone and turned to look at Wen Liang.
Wen Liang propped himself up and sat up, his eyes clear and penetrating, and he shrugged nonchalantly, "Going to the hospital?"
Looking into Wen Liang's eyes, Fu Zheng's breath caught in his throat. He explained, "Si Yi committed suicide by cutting her wrists..."
His voice became lower and lower, and he realized that any more explanations would be pale and powerless at this moment.
But he couldn't bear to see Siyi get into trouble. She could do anything when she was sick.
"Yeah, I know." Wen Liang nodded lightly, "Go ahead."
In fact, she guessed that Chu Siyi was going to jump off the building, which was pretty close.
"Let's go together. We agreed that I won't meet her alone again."
"I'm afraid Miss Chu will be sad if I go..."
Fu Zheng looked at her steadily without moving.
"Okay." Wen Liang sighed helplessly, put on his shoes, got out of bed, and tidied his clothes.
The two got in a car heading to the hospital.
Wen Liang leaned back in her chair and looked at the street scene outside the window. This was a common action she had taken recently when she was in the car with Fu Zheng.
The carriage was quiet.
Fu Zheng turned his head to look at her profile, as if he was afraid that she would be angry. He held her hand in his palm and gently stroked the back of her hand with his thumb, with a soothing emotion. He didn't know whether he was soothing Wen Liang or himself.
When they arrived at the hospital, they went directly to the ward where Chu Siyi was.
Wang Yan was comforting Chu Siyi in her ward. Besides her, there were two doctors standing around who were helpless against Chu Siyi.
Seeing Fu Zheng at the door, she smiled with joy, "Mr. Fu, you finally..."
Halfway through her words, the smile on Wang Yan's face suddenly stopped, and her expression cracked for a moment - she saw Wen Liang behind Fu Zheng.
A moment later, she immediately recovered as usual, "Mr. Fu, please come and see Siyi. Her hand is bleeding profusely. She refuses to bandage it and won't let the doctor get close..."
The doctor automatically stepped aside, making room, and said, "We should calm the patient down as quickly as possible. Her wound is still bleeding and needs to be sutured quickly."
"Let me try."
When Fu Zheng looked over, he saw Chu Siyi huddled in the corner of the hospital bed. Her eyes were dark, her face was sallow, she was thin and haggard, her hair was disheveled, and her arms were hugged on her knees in a gesture of resistance. Her hospital gown and bed sheets were all stained with bright red blood, which was a shocking sight.
Seeing this scene, even Wen Liang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh secretly, let alone Fu Zheng?
Wen Liang's gaze fell on Fu Zheng, and she saw his black eyes flash slightly.
His ex-girlfriend, the woman he truly loved, became like this because of him. She didn't believe it, and Fu Zheng was not moved at all.
Fu Zheng took a step forward, and Chu Siyi trembled all over instantly. Like a hedgehog, she was alert and shouted in a shrill voice, "Don't come over here!"
Fu Zheng paused, then sat down beside him and said, "Siyi, it's me."
Hearing the voice, Chu Siyi trembled all over, raised her head in disbelief, looked at Fu Zheng in front of her, her lips trembling, tears in her eyes, and her voice hoarse, "A Zheng, is it really you?"
"It's me."
"You came to see me?" Chu Siyi slowly stretched out her hand and gently touched Fu Zheng's cheek, but Fu Zheng frowned and gently dodged.
A trace of resentment flashed across Chu Siyi's face, but it disappeared in an instant, and then she cried, "...A Zheng, you finally came to see me!"
