Chapter 98 Let Him Kneel for a While
He Yanting looked up at Xia Yulin and didn't react for a moment.
Xia Yulin repeated her words again.
He Yanting stood up suddenly, but his steps were a little unsteady because he had not eaten for a long time.
"What did you say? Ruanruan wants to see me!"
His eyes sparkled brightly.
Xia Yulin looked him up and down, feeling somewhat frustrated. "You'd better clean yourself up before going in. Don't forget what the doctor said. Don't provoke her anymore."
He Yanting went to a nearby hotel, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and shaved.
He did everything extremely quickly and then couldn't wait to return to the ward.
When he opened the door, he was stunned.
Jiang Xu sat on the hospital bed with her side facing him, looking out the window slightly.
She was wearing a loose hospital gown, which made her look even more slender and petite, with her long, smooth hair draped behind her.
Her skin was still a little pale and her lips were bloodless.
Occasionally, the eyelashes flutter.
Like a glass beauty, she has a very fragile and extreme beauty.
He Yanting couldn't help but breathe softer and called out, "Ruanruan."
Jiang Xu turned her head to look at him, her eyes as calm as a lake without wind.
He Yanting's heart sank suddenly.
Jiang Xu's eyes swept across his face. He looked relatively refreshed, but the dark circles under his eyes and the bloodshot in his eyes were very obvious.
"He Yanting, let's have a good talk."
Jiang Xu glanced at the chair next to him and said, "Sit down."
He Yanting didn't sit down. Instead, he rushed over and grabbed Jiang Xu's hand: "Listen to my explanation!"
Jiang Xu frowned slightly and said coldly, "Let go."
He Yanting was reluctant to let her go. After so many days, he finally got to touch her and wanted to hold her hand forever.
Still, he was defeated and let go of his hand.
Jiang Xu looked at him: "Did you say that in the recording?"
He Yanting clenched his teeth, unable to deny it, let alone admit it.
Jiang Xu raised the corner of his mouth: "Since you said it, what's there to explain?"
She looked out the window again.
"He Yanting, do you know why I have such a big reaction?"
He Yanting's eyes were slightly red.
Jiang Xu continued, "In the past three years, you have been so indifferent to me. I have suffered so much injustice, but why have I been able to persist?"
She looked up and gave him a bitter smile: "It was because of that year that you loved me so much. That love gave me hope and courage, but it turned out that..."
Her eyes were red, and she lowered her eyes to look at the quilt, "That year was also fake."
"No, that's not the case, Ruanruan, listen to me."
He Yanting tried to explain in a panic.
Jiang Xu shook his head and interrupted him: "No need to explain anything, I don't blame you."
She even smiled at him: "If I were you, I might do something worse. I understand that you want to avenge your mother, and I'm just unlucky to become the tool for revenge."
"The reason I want to talk to you is because of my mother."
She lowered her head and touched her bulging belly. "I know you really want this child. If I take good care of myself and give birth to this child, in exchange, can you let my mother go?"
A look of devastation appeared on He Yanting's face.
"You're taking our child in exchange?"
"That's right."
Jiang Xu said with a firm expression, "You just need to answer, yes or no."
He Yanting was silent for a moment.
Nodding: "Okay, I promise you, I'll give birth to the child and everything in the past will be written off."
"Yes, thank you."
Jiang Xu was sincerely grateful to him.
"Ruanruan, don't do this to me."
He Yanting suddenly knelt beside the bed and grabbed Jiang Xu's hand. "Since you don't blame me, can we start over?"
Jiang Xu shook her head: "I'm sorry, I'm really tired. I don't have the energy to love you anymore."
He Yanting knelt on the ground stubbornly and refused to get up.
As they were confronting each other, the door suddenly opened.
It's very lively outside.
The one who opened the door was Old Lady He, with Xia Yulin beside her, and behind them stood Old Man He and Gao Cheng, who was craning his neck to look inside.
When several people saw He Yanting kneeling on the ground, they were all shocked.
He Yanting acted as if he didn't hear it and didn't even turn his head.
Jiang Xu couldn't stand this scene.
"Get up."
"No."
"Then you keep kneeling. I'm leaving."
Jiang Xu pretended to get out of bed.
He Yanting had no choice but to stand up.
Jiang Xu ignored her and looked towards the door: "Grandma, Grandpa."
Mrs. He finally came to her senses and walked in with a smile: "I heard that you are feeling much better, so we came to see you."
"Well, thank you for your concern."
Jiang Xu smiled.
He Yanting stood aside and suddenly seemed redundant, so he had to leave quietly.
After he left, Old Lady He whispered, "Ruanruan, it was Yan Ting who was the bastard first. Why didn't you let him kneel for a while longer?"
Jiang Xu: “…”
Old Mrs. He held her hand and looked at her belly again.
"But that's how couples are. They fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. I don't care. As long as my precious great-grandson is safe and sound, that's all I care about."
Jiang Xu smiled and said nothing.
Another week passed and the doctor confirmed that I could be discharged from the hospital.
Xia Yulin has been staying with her almost every step of the way these days. Jiang Xu wanted to help her pack her things, but she drove him away.
"You, go and have a good rest, and don't do anything."
Jiang Xu said helplessly: "The doctor said the fetus is stable."
She lowered her head and touched her belly. After staying in the hospital for so long, the baby had grown a little bigger.
At this time, Gao Cheng walked to the door.
"Madam, Mr. He is waiting for you downstairs."
"knew."
Jiang Xu responded.
After Gao Cheng left, Xia Yulin asked her, "Ruanruan, tell me honestly, when you talked to He Yanting that day, did you use yourself as a bargaining chip to get him not to retaliate against me?"
Jiang Xu's face was very calm: "Why are you asking this?"
Xia Yulin sighed: "Silly child, Mom is not afraid of retaliation, she is only afraid that you will be unhappy."
Jiang Xu's throat felt sore. "But you gave birth to me, raised me, and gave me all your love. I have to do something for you."
"Mom doesn't want your reward."
Xia Yulin looked serious.
"Okay, Mom, stop talking." Jiang Xu stopped her mother.
When I got downstairs, I saw He Yanting leaning against the car door.
He has recovered a lot in the past few days. He stood there tall and long-legged, wearing a pair of sunglasses. At first glance, he looked like he was in a pictorial.
When he saw Jiang Xu, he immediately took off his sunglasses and wanted to take the thing from Xia Yulin's hand.
Xia Yulin said, "I want Ruanruan to stay with me for a while."
He Yanting's face darkened: "No."
Xia Yulin pursed her red lips and said, "I'm worried that you'll upset her again. If you do that again, even a god wouldn't be able to save the child."
He Yanting pursed his lips: "That kind of thing will never happen again."
He looked at Jiang Xu: "Ruanruan, come home with me."
Jiang Xu looked away and didn't look at him: "I want to live with my mother."
At this time, the Xia family's car arrived.
Xia Yulin helped Jiang Xu into the car, and the car drove away.
He Yanting watched the car disappear from sight, and Gao Cheng couldn't help but shout, "Mr. He, they're gone."
"Don't I have eyes?"
He Yanting said coldly, extending his hand to Gao Cheng: "Do you have any cigarettes?"
Gao Cheng was surprised: "Didn't you quit?"
After saying that, he felt that his question was stupid and quickly went to the car to get a cigarette.
He Yanting lit a cigarette and took a puff, and the curl of smoke rose on his handsome face.
He squatted on the side of the road, not knowing what he was thinking.
Gao Cheng and the driver stood aside, and no one dared to ask more questions.
