Luo Zewen was sent by Su Yujing to help Jiang Yu collect her drawing and design materials. The doctor advised her to stay in the hospital for a few days, which the woman readily agreed to. She was unsure how to deal with her relationship with Shen Ying, so she figured she might as well stay in the hospital and take it one day at a time.
Unfortunately, the car had a minor accident as it was leaving the factory area. He had to pull over to the side of the road and get out to check it.
Shen Ying seized this opportunity to catch up. Upon seeing Luo Zewen, he changed his usual demeanor and politely inquired:
"General Manager Luo, is General Manager Jiang still at get off work?"
Currently, not a single light is on in the factory area. He knows Jiang Yu isn't inside, but it wouldn't be wise to ask her rashly.
Upon hearing the sound, Luo Zewen turned his head and nearly sat down on the ground, as if he had been quite frightened.
On the way to the hospital with Jiang Yu in the afternoon, I overheard President Su describing the whole incident. However, he didn't describe it as bluntly as he would have, but rather asked around to see if there were any other solutions since the Sui Sui Nian Nian clothing store had been shut down.
Erzhu had a loud voice and summarized the matter, which he was fortunate enough to hear about.
However, even so, it's ultimately someone else's family matter. One can only handle it tactfully, pretending not to hear, but still keeping it in mind.
"President Jiang...President Jiang is not feeling well and is at the hospital for a check-up."
After a while, Luo Zewen patted his chest and said. He couldn't talk about what happened at the coffee shop during the day, lest he cause himself some trouble.
Judging from President Su's attitude towards President Jiang, he might actually fire her for the sake of a beautiful woman. His whole family depends on him for support.
Which hospital?
Upon hearing the news about Jiang Yu, Shen Ying felt a surge of worry. He wished he could rush to the woman's side immediately to take care of her.
"It's...it's the People's Hospital right next door."
Luo Zewen hesitated for a long time before speaking. His voice was halting and extremely reluctant. He had no choice; after all, if this man really got angry and beat him up, he'd probably be bedridden for days.
After thanking him, Shen Ying didn't say a word and strode towards the hospital. Seeing this, Luo Zewen hurriedly pounded on the car, cursing that if things didn't go well, he'd take it to the scrap yard and sell it. He wanted to get to Su Yujing's aid before the man did.
Upon arriving at the hospital, after inquiring about the situation, I learned that a young and beautiful woman had indeed come to receive emergency treatment that afternoon, and she explained the cause of her illness.
The man shared the same thought as Su Yujing: that the clothing store was to blame. This made him feel even more guilty.
He followed the directions to Jiang Yu's hospital room. Looking through the window, he saw the woman lying on the bed, her face deathly pale, receiving an IV drip. A man beside her was peeling fruit and chatting.
The two seemed to have found something funny, and their hearty laughter filled the entire room. The scene was exceptionally warm and cozy.
After hesitating for a long time, Shen Ying placed his hand on the door and knocked three times.
Hearing the noise, Su Yujing handed the woman the peeled fruit, straightened his clothes, and got up to open the door. She was visibly startled upon seeing the man, but still smiled politely and invited him in.
Su Yujing was clever; he quickly deduced that this man had already met Luo Zewen and learned the news from him. He didn't feel anything about it; after all, Jiang Yu was still his wife, and there was no reason to hide it from her.
"Jiang Yu, how are you feeling? What did the doctor say?"
Shen Ying looked at the woman with heartache, his words tumbling out incoherently. He didn't know how to comfort her, nor could he guarantee that the matter could be resolved quickly.
It seems that this is exactly the effect Commander Bai wanted. He wanted him to go crazy, and he wanted them to be anxious and frustrated.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Yu released his tightly clenched hand, her tone extremely cold. In this situation, she needed to suppress her feelings for the man. It would be best to take this opportunity to break up with him.
The man, sensing something was wrong, sat frozen in his chair, staring at her, utterly helpless. He had no way to make amends, and he was too ashamed to ask the woman for forgiveness.
Out of the corner of her eye, Jiang Yu felt a pang of emotion. At that moment, Shen Ying looked like a child who had made a mistake, his face filled with helplessness. In the days that followed, whenever Jiang Yu thought of that expression, her heart would ache.
"I think we should get a divorce as soon as possible. I will move out of Shenjiazhuang as soon as possible so as not to disturb your lives."
"Shen Ying, we're not a good match."
As Jiang Yu spoke, she didn't dare look the man in the eye. She was afraid he would keenly notice that she was lying.
"Why...why? Jiang Yu, things can be resolved, there's no need for divorce. I swear, I will never make this mistake again. We still have a child, and...Wanwan and Mom are waiting for you to come back."
Shen Ying was incredulous, almost pleading with tears in his eyes. If it had been before the New Year, he would have agreed to the woman's request without hesitation. But after spending so much time together, his love for her had seeped into his very bones.
Separating him now would be the death of him!
"That's enough. All you've said is for your own sake and for your family's sake. Shen Ying, let me ask you, if I were still the disheveled, unkempt, child-abusing person I was years ago, would you still act the same way you do now?"
The reason I'm pretending to be so affectionate is because I still have some value and can help you, right?
"Shen Ying, I'm sorry, but this time it's my turn to make the choice. I, Jiang Yu, don't want you anymore."
It must have taken a lot of courage for Jiang Yu to say these words. Her voice choked up several times at the end.
Afraid of being seen by the man, she turned her face away. Tears streamed down her face, soaking a large patch of her pillow.
"Are all of these things you said true?"
Shen Ying never imagined that in a woman's eyes, he was someone who was dispensable. This created a non-existent obstacle between them, as if a distance of heaven and earth separated them.
His whole body trembled as he asked the question. He no longer had the courage to say those words:
Jiang Yu, look into my eyes and answer me.
The wait for her reply, though only a few seconds long, felt like an eternity. When he finally received her confirmation, he felt as if his center of gravity had vanished, and he was about to fall to the ground at any moment.
"Then... let me stay and take care of you. We can talk about these things after you've recovered, okay?"
Shen Ying asked almost pleadingly. He couldn't bear to part with the woman and wanted to stay longer. If he had known it would end like this, he shouldn't have attended Bai Chen's wedding. That way, they could still be together like before, day and night.
However, no one can predict the future, so in the present, we should cherish the moment, constantly reflect on ourselves, and avoid making mistakes. Because the cost of trial and error is simply too high.
