Chapter 553: A Gamble? (1/2)



Xu Jingyi glared at Chen Ze and stayed beside Chi Shuwen without saying a word.

Chi Shuwen didn't know how to persuade them, nor could he drive them out, so he could only ask them to be quiet.

Afterwards, there was nothing else in the entire ward except the ghost screams in the movie.

"Cousin, is it over?"

Chi Shuwen glanced at Xu Jingyi who was burying herself in the quilt and found it a little funny.

"it's over."

Only then did Xu Jingyi take her head out of the quilt.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally over."

Chi Shuwen looked at the time and prepared to go to bed.

But she couldn't sleep well because there was a stranger in the ward.

"Mr. Chen, aren't you leaving yet?"

Chen Ze lazily leaned on the sofa and said, "I can leave, cousin, but only if you let me take her with me."

Chi Shuwen can't beat Chen Ze.

Nor can I contact the He family.

And the reason he was able to find this place was probably because He Chengyun told him.

She didn't look for He Chengyun again.

Jiang Ying...

I don't know if it's okay to disturb you at this time.

"Cousin..."

"Shut up!" Xu Jingyi said, "Who is my cousin's wife? Why are you calling me that?"

"I won't go with you, get out of here now."

Chen Ze smiled, but his eyes were dark and calm. "My cousin's sister-in-law is my sister-in-law, it doesn't matter what you call her."

"Are you sure you don't want to come with me?"

"If you don't leave, I won't leave either. Then your cousin's wife won't be able to sleep."

"If you can't sleep, your recovery won't be smooth. If your brother knew you hurt his wife, he'd do something to you."

“…”

Xu Jingyi was speechless.

He looked at Chi Shuwen with a look of seeking help.

Chi Shuwen had no choice.

She thought for a moment and said, "What's the reason why Master Chen wants to take my sister away? Is he trying to get back at my sister for the two times she did the wrong thing?"

Chen Ze didn't know much about Chi Shuwen.

But when he came, He Chengyun told him not to bully Chi Shuwen.

It is said that Chi Shuwen is not good at speaking and has a rather introverted personality.

Tell him to be more restrained and not to scare himself.

Otherwise, he would have just carried Xu Jingyi away.

But now he felt that what He Chengyun said was inconsistent.

"If you're just afraid that my sister will run away and it won't be easy for you to catch her, I think it would be just as well for you to guard the door. You don't have to stay in the room."

"This is my ward. I can't accept a strange man coming here."

Chen Ze's cold face moved, his tongue swept across his cheek, and he smiled.

"OK."

The man stood up and sat down in the waiting area at the door.

He typed out a message:

So slow?

There was no reply from the other side.

In the ward.

Chi Shuwen said: "I can only help you here, but hiding forever is not a solution."

Xu Jingyi also knew, "Just tonight, I don't want to go back with him."

"Think about it, cousin, if he sees me and that little puppy, how could he let me go so easily?"

"I'll just wait for him to calm down."

Chi Shuwen couldn't control the relationship between them, nor did he understand why they did this.

"Then I'll go to sleep."

"Okay, cousin." Xu Jingyi said to the other side.

When the eastern skyline became a little brighter, a tall and long-legged man covered in cold dew entered the hospital.

Chen Ze could stay awake all night for many years.

Besides, it's impossible to sleep in this place.

Seeing someone coming, he raised his eyelashes and smiled.

"Your beard has grown back, why are you rushing back?"

“Just smashed it.”

He Chengyun took the coat in his hand and threw it at Chen Ze's face. "How about I hit you with a glass?"

Chen Ze smiled and weighed the coat in his hand. "It's not like I haven't been hit before. Even a bottle from a pot head was broken. A small wine glass can't hurt me at all."

He Chengyun ignored him and gently opened the ward door and went in.

He happened to meet Chi Shuwen's eyes as he got up to go to the bathroom.

"How did you..."

He Chengyun immediately held her face and checked the wound on her forehead.

"Does it hurt?"

"...It doesn't hurt." Chi Shuwen wanted to get out of his palm, "Can you let go?"

He Chengyun spoke softly, and Chi Shuwen went to the bathroom.

When he came out again, Xu Jingyi was no longer on the hospital bed.

I accidentally forgot about her.

The main reason is that I’m not that familiar with it yet.

"Are you done with your business trip?"

He Chengyun went to the bathroom to wash up first, and then asked someone to bring food over.

He turned on the light and took a closer look at the wound on her forehead.

"Why don't you just hide?"

Chi Shuwen said: "It was too sudden."

She asked again: "Your cousin..."

"No matter." He Chengyun was a little annoyed. "She hit you, and I haven't settled the score with her yet."

"It was just an accident. She didn't do it on purpose. You're making too much of it."

"I care?"

The man looked at her suddenly, his eyes so deep that they seemed to draw her in.

Chi Shuwen hurriedly tried to avoid his sight, but the man held his chin.

"Chi Shuwen, do you have a conscience?"

"I care about you."

“…”

Chi Shuwen blinked slowly, not knowing what to say.

My cheeks are also hot.

Fortunately, someone came to deliver food and broke the awkwardness.

He Chengyun released her chin and they both sat down on the sofa.

Chi Shuwen didn't dare to say anything, for fear that he would say something that he couldn't respond to.

The two ate quietly.

When he was almost done eating, He Chengyun's phone rang.

He went to answer the call.

He looked as if something was wrong, and his brows were gloomy.

But Chi Shuwen didn't understand the business side of things.

Her phone vibrated, and she picked it up. It was He Miaomiao and Su Yan asking about the situation.

Su Yan: [He Chengyun is back? ]

He Miaomiao: [I called Xu Jingyi, and Chen Ze answered. How are you, sister-in-law?]

Chi Shuwen replied one by one.

【I'm back.】

【No.】

After He Chengyun finished the call, he still asked, "Is your cousin okay?"

"What could be wrong?" He Chengyun leaned back on the sofa, his brows weary. "It's not the first time they've been making such a fuss."

Chi Shuwen felt that he was not very happy.

I wonder if there is a problem with your business.

"I'll be discharged from the hospital soon. What are your plans next?"

"go home."

The discharge procedures were handled by He Chengyun's people.

Chi Shuwen took He Chengyun's car home.

Today is the weekend, so she doesn't have to go to work.

I wanted to do something of my own, but the man pushed me onto the bed and held me tightly in his arms.

"I haven't slept a wink in my sleep to come back. Stay with me for a while."

But Chi Shuwen was not tired.

She moved her lips, but then remembered that he seemed really tired, so she didn't say anything.

Soon, the sound of even breathing was heard.

“…”

Chi Shuwen finally fell asleep for no apparent reason.

Maybe I didn’t sleep well last night because I was thinking about Xu Jingyi and Chen Ze.

When she woke up again, she was the only one in the bed.

Just as I was about to look for He Chengyun, my cell phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, so she picked up the call.

"Cousin-in-law—help—"

Xu Jingyi's howling almost deafened her ears.
