Chapter 9 She was drenched in rain
She was drenched by the rain
It was almost eleven o'clock when Wen Ruan finished the drip and walked out of the infusion hall.
While waiting for the elevator, Lin Yue bombarded my WeChat again.
She also posted a screenshot of Yao Man’s Moments.
In the photo, a slender wrist is wrapped in gauze. The location is Songli Hospital. It was posted an hour ago with the caption:
——It was just a minor wound, but Mr. Jiang felt so distressed that he insisted on going to the hospital.
Lin Yue: [They're already showing off their affection, are they already together? ]
Lin Yue: [Fuck, this young lady is amazing. She managed to capture him in just three months?]
Lin Yue: [Jiang Qingyan isn't the type to get easily bored with the old and easily attracted to the new. Did he really become a consort for power?]
Lin Yue: [Wen Ruan, are you just giving in? No, fight! If you two don't fight, I'll have nothing to watch.]
I heard that Ruan had read it but did not reply.
After taking a taxi back to the hotel, Wen Ruan handed his clothes to the staff for washing and drying. He slept until seven o'clock in the evening and was woken up by his cell phone again.
Zhang Tongtong’s call.
"Ruan Ruan, I need your help with something."
The curtains were drawn and the room was dark. Wen Ruan reached out to turn on the bedside lamp and said, "You say."
After a day without eating, Zhang Tongtong spoke weakly, "The doctor said my mother-in-law's condition is quite serious and she needs surgery."
Zhang Tongtong didn't want to trouble Wen Ruan at first because Wen Ruan rarely mentioned her mother and the relationship between mother and daughter was not very good.
She didn't want to embarrass Wen Ruan, but there was really nothing she could do.
The old lady has coronary heart disease. The doctor said that she must have a stent placed this time, but given her current physical condition, the operation is very risky. Pan Rui wants to take the old lady to Haicheng.
Wen Ruan's mother is the director of the Department of Cardiology at Haicheng Songli Hospital.
There were no authoritative experts around them, and they had no other connections, so Pan Rui urged her several times to call Wen Ruan.
"Ruan Ruan, how is your relationship with your mother lately? Did you have a fight?"
"No quarrel."
We haven't had any arguments recently, it's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time.
The last time we met was on Double Ninth Festival, her birthday.
We had a fight that day.
She said she planned to marry Jiang Qingyan, but her mother did not support her, saying that she and Jiang Qingyan were not the same type of people and that if they forced themselves to get married, they would regret it sooner or later. It would be better to try a doctor she introduced to her.
They had no idea what was going on, and each one was more stubborn than the other, so they ended up parting on bad terms.
After the quarrel that day, no one contacted each other until New Year's Day, when her mother sent her a message asking her to come home for dinner.
She happened to be on a business trip and didn't go back.
Wen Ruan agreed to what Zhang Tongtong said.
Human life is at stake, so we should help if we can. The most important thing is that Zhang Tongtong has always had a bad relationship with her mother-in-law, so this is also an opportunity to repair the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Send me your mother-in-law's medical report and I'll let my mother take a look."
"Okay, Ruan Ruan, thank you. I'll treat you to dinner when I get back."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ruan sent the examination report to his mother Wen Hui'an.
Just half a minute after the message was sent, my mother called me and asked, "Who is Li Sufen?"
A voice that was not very warm came over. Wen Ruan had already gotten used to it. In this life, she didn't expect the relationship between mother and daughter to be too close. It was fine like this.
"Zhang Tongtong's mother-in-law."
After she finished speaking, she explained who Tongtong was in the next chapter, "I am your college classmate, we have a good relationship, you saw me in the hospital last year."
Wen Ruan never brought Zhang Tongtong home.
From childhood to adulthood, her mother had a strong desire to control her, controlling her studies and interfering with her social life. She had no friends before college because her friends all distanced themselves from her due to her mother's dominance.
Zhang Tongtong is her college classmate.
When she was in college, she broke away from her mother's control and blocked her mother from her social circle, so she made a few good friends.
Because she and Zhang Tongtong are the only ones in Haicheng, she has the best relationship with Zhang Tongtong.
My mother met Zhang Tongtong once last year.
At that time, Zhang Tongtong's daughter Guoguo always had headaches. No problem was found after checkups, and she could never get an appointment with a pediatric specialist. So she took Zhang Tongtong to Songli Hospital to ask her mother for help.
Wen Hui'an waited for Wen Ruan to finish speaking, then remained silent for a few seconds, his voice very cold.
"You care about other people's affairs, but you mess around when it comes to your own?"
Wen Ruan was getting an acupuncture injection in the morning. When He Zheng went to buy porridge, Wen Hui'an happened to pass by the infusion hall.
She saw Wen Ruan, but she had surgery at the time and was in a hurry, so she didn't stay.
She spent most of the day in the operating room and only came out half an hour ago.
I went to the outpatient clinic and talked to the doctor about Wen Ruan's condition. Just as I was about to call her, she sent me a message first.
"Does your stomach still hurt?"
Wen Ruan was stunned for a moment before she realized that she had been exposed in the hospital today. She didn't ask how she was exposed, but just answered accordingly.
"It doesn't hurt anymore."
"I have to come to the hospital tomorrow, and I still have two bottles."
"Know."
"I'm very busy tomorrow and don't have time to take care of you."
"It's okay, you're busy."
When it comes to your health, Wen Hui'an can't help but nag a few words, "Doctor Zhang said your illness is in your spleen and stomach. Your spleen and stomach are too weak. You need to keep your emotions stable, eat regularly, and drink less alcohol..."
"knew."
"Please spare half a day next week and come for a physical examination."
"No, the company has a physical examination every year."
"The company's physical examination is different from what I arranged."
"Really."
"If you don't come for the physical examination, don't come to me about Zhang Tongtong."
"……good."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ruan sent a message to Zhang Tongtong, telling her that she could bring the old lady over. Zhang Tongtong replied with an emoticon of thanks and a hug.
After a good sleep, Wen Ruan felt much more energetic. She ate light meals and had a poor appetite, so she only ordered a bowl of millet porridge.
While waiting for the porridge, she began to clean up her phone and permanently deleted all traces of her time with Jiang Qingyan.
It brings bad luck and is disgusting.
While drinking porridge, Wen Ruan turned on the TV and watched a variety show that was ranked first in the comedy list. It was really funny and he laughed to tears.
I went to bed at 11 o'clock, but I couldn't sleep and didn't fall asleep until 3 o'clock in the morning. The whole day passed in a daze.
…
The next day I slept until noon, ordered some food, and then went to the hospital to get two bottles of water.
The weather is bad today and it rains heavily.
Wen Ruan came out of the hospital and took a taxi directly to Huatang Bay.
I don’t know if Jiang Qingyan has moved all her things, but she has to go back to Huatang Bay now.
I was emotionally unstable at the time and just left with my bag.
I didn't bring any toiletries, any change of clothes, my computer, or my car. Tomorrow is Monday, and I have to go back.
When they arrived at Huatang Bay, the car couldn't drive into the building. Wen Ruan got out of the car on the side of the road, turned around with an umbrella, and a biting cold wind blew towards him.
Wen Ruan stopped and shuddered violently.
Jiang Qingyan's car was parked a few steps away from her.
The view was not very clear through the rain and the glass, but perhaps it was because she was too familiar with the two people in the car, or perhaps her eyesight was too good.
Yao Man sat in the passenger seat, leaning her whole body towards the driver's seat, putting her arms around Jiang Qingyan's neck, and tilting her head back to kiss him.
Jiang Qingyan sat in the driver's seat, leaning slightly towards Yao Man, with his hands hanging down. He didn't touch her, but he didn't push her away either.
It was a rainy day with heavy rain. A strong wind blew and knocked the umbrella out of Wen Ruan's hand.
She subconsciously tried to grab it, but failed. The umbrella was blown down by the wind and rolled on the ground several times.
She was completely drenched by the rain.
Jiang Qingyan in the car seemed to sense something, turned his head and looked over here, his eyes shocked.
Wen Ruan looked at him. Through the rain, she couldn't see his expression clearly and didn't want to explore it any further.
The umbrella was blown to the side of the road. She walked over quickly, picked it up, held it up, and walked away from his car without looking away.
Yao Man also saw Wen Ruan.
She saw it first.
Jiang Qingyan moved today and all the things were taken away at noon. Jiang Qingyan came back to clean up, and she came to help. They just finished and were ready to leave.
When the taxi stopped there, she caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye. It was because she saw Wen Ruan that she went to hug Jiang Qingyan.
Seeing Ruan leaving with an umbrella, Jiang Qingyan subconsciously wanted to open the door and get out of the car.
Yao Man grabbed his arm and stopped him from leaving.
"Where are you going? You've already broken up, Qingyan. I know you might feel a little guilty, but she's been asking for you these past three years. She's been a slut herself, and she's benefited a lot from you. You don't owe her anything."
Yao Man had previously asked Jiang Qingyan how Wen Ruan achieved all those achievements in Rongli.
She didn't believe that Wen Ruan, a woman with no background, could achieve such brilliant results on her own. Even if it wasn't the result of sleeping, those good projects must have been given to her by Jiang Qingyan.
Or perhaps, Wen Ruan pursued Jiang Qingyan relentlessly just to get a promotion.
She was almost certain, but Jiang Qingyan said, "Wen Ruan discovered all the projects on her own. She is indeed a rare talent."
A gifted talent?
Yao Man didn't believe it.
Not only did she not believe it, she would immediately let everyone know that Wen Ruan was just seeking fame and reputation!
In the end, Jiang Qingyan did not get out of the car. He held Yao Man's hand with his palm and comforted her in a gentle voice.
"I just wanted to talk to her about the house. If you're not happy, I won't go."
…
When Wen Ruan opened the door and entered the house, the first thing he did was to run to the bedroom, take a hot shower, dry his hair, then run to the kitchen and boil a bowl of ginger soup.
After some tossing and turning, I finally felt my body was completely warm.
Coming out of the kitchen, she walked around the house holding a cup of tea. After walking around, she felt emotional.
If Jiang Qingyan becomes unemployed in the future, he can work as a cleaner.
Cleaned cleanly, moved cleanly, and handled cleanly.
All the photos of the two of them were gone. To be more precise, all traces of his life in this house were gone.
It was like she was the only one who had ever lived here.
Very good, very good.
Wen Ruan didn't plan to stay here, so he packed his things, pulled his suitcase, and drove back to the hotel.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening. She asked the hotel staff to deliver dinner to her room. Just as she picked up the chopsticks, Jiang Qingyan called.
"I have a friend who wants to buy a house in Huatang Bay. If you are sure you want to sell it, I can help you contact them?"
Wen Ruan picked up a piece of stir-fried yam and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it slowly, swallowed it, and then spoke with a smile.
"You cleaned the house so well, and now you're in such a hurry to help me sell it, you sweetheart! You're such a slut, eager to show your loyalty to Bai Yueguang. You're such a slut."
There was a hint of sarcasm in her words, and Jiang Qingyan understood.
Those photos in the house, those traces of the two of them, were all destroyed by Yao Man.
She smashed the photo and threw it into the trash can. She also took out the couple's chopsticks in the cupboard. She threw away all his things.
He saw it, acquiesced, and condoned it.
So I can't refute it at this moment.
"Wen Ruan, I just want to help. If you don't want to, forget it."
"No." Wen Ruan said calmly, "Just follow the current market price, no bargaining. Ask your friend. If he accepts, he can complete the formalities whenever he wants."
It would be great if it could be sold quickly; she doesn't care who the buyer is.
After discussing this, Wen Ruan hung up the phone.
That night, she slept uneasily and had a nightmare.
In her dream, she missed a step and fell into the deep sea. Endless darkness swallowed her and a feeling of suffocation overwhelmed her. Finally, it was the alarm clock at seven o'clock the next morning that brought her back to reality.
After a simple breakfast, she arrived at the company at exactly 8:30 and entered the office on time.
Today is Monday, and she has a regular meeting at nine o'clock. At ten o'clock, she has a project agreement to sign.
Half an hour before the meeting, she turned on her computer and began writing her resignation letter.
The emotionless, formulaic language was finished in a few minutes, and just as I saved it, someone knocked on the door.
"Boss Wen, something happened!"
