He wouldn't have insisted on going abroad if it weren't for inviting this friend.
Fortunately... the result was good!
As the two were talking, Jiang Luo on the bed finally made a move.
She had been unconscious for a long time, and now, staring at the white ceiling, she felt as if she had been in another world.
"mom!"
Li Ruo noticed she was awake immediately, and a look of surprise and delight appeared on her face: "How are you?"
Jiang Luo shook his head, looking at her haggard face, a trace of heartache flashing in his eyes: "You've had a hard time these past few days."
"This is nothing, I'm just glad you're alright."
Li Ruo obediently lay down in front of her bed, her big eyes full of joy.
But seeing her like this only made Jiang Luo feel more and more distressed.
This child lost his mother at a young age and has struggled to survive in the Li family for years.
She really wanted to spend more time with this little girl!
It's just a pity...
Thinking of this, she weakly waved to Jiang Ze beside her: "Xiao Ze, come here."
Jiang Ze was taken aback, and quickly walked over: "Mom, is there something you need?"
Jiang Luo sighed, first glancing at Li Ruo, then turning her gaze to Jiang Ze and instructing him, "Xiao Ze, Mom's health may not hold out much longer. From now on, you must take good care of Ruo Ruo for Mom, and don't let her suffer any injustice, she..."
But before she could finish speaking, Li Ruo interrupted her excitedly: "Mom, I won't allow you to say that. You will definitely get better."
As she spoke, glistening tears instantly streamed down her cheeks: "I don't want you to leave me!"
Her voice was choked with sobs, and if you listened closely, you could hear a hint of fear in it.
Jiang Luo's heart softened instantly, and she reached out to hug Li Ruo tightly: "Ruo Ruo, don't cry, Mommy won't leave you, she won't..."
Seeing the mother and daughter crying in each other's arms, Jiang Ze sighed and leaned down to embrace them, saying, "Don't worry, it won't be that bad. There will be a way."
...
After the two of them had a good cry, the previously heavy atmosphere eased considerably.
Jiang Luochu's health wasn't very good at the moment, and he soon fell into a deep sleep again.
Li Ruo originally intended to stay and continue to watch over her, but Jiang Ze firmly refused.
"I'm really okay!"
At the ward door, Li Ruo still tried to struggle.
But Jiang Ze, who is usually gentle, had a rare serious look on his face at this moment: "No, you need to rest well."
"Can……"
"Don't you believe me?"
Before she could utter a rebuttal, Jiang Ze interrupted her.
How could that be...
Li Ruo subconsciously shook her head, but when she caught a glimpse of the obvious concern in the man's eyes, she could only sigh, "Alright, I'll go back. You take good care of Mom, I'll take over tomorrow."
Jiang Ze nodded and whispered, "Then be careful on your way back."
"good!"
She gave a casual reply, but the moment Li Ruo turned around, her face fell.
She just didn't want to go back, which is why she's been staying at the hospital all this time.
Since Wen Huaiyan left coldly that day, the two have never been in contact again.
In the past few days, he has been frequently photographed with Fu Zhiqing.
Unfortunately, Li Ruo was also holding a grudge, so the matter dragged on until now.
"Oh well, I'll have to face it sooner or later!"
Looking at the brightly lit villa in the distance, Li Ruo encouraged herself before going inside.
However, as soon as she entered the hall, she was met with the housekeeper's surprised expression.
"Um?"
Sensing something was amiss, Li Ruo was about to speak when a female voice suddenly rang out in the hall: "Vice Minister Li, you've arrived."
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo was slightly taken aback. She subconsciously looked up and saw Fu Zhiqing, dressed in a white dress, sitting on the sofa.
What is she doing here?
"Miss Fu, you..."
Li Ruo opened her mouth, but looking at the woman's gentle expression, she didn't know what to say.
If she remembered correctly, they had completely fallen out a while ago.
Therefore, the Fu family even put pressure on the Li family to terminate the cooperation!
This woman is quite the actress; she can even pretend that nothing happened.
"Don't just stand there at the door, come in!"
While she remained silent, Fu Zhiqing had already made herself at home, and said to the housekeeper, "What are you all standing there for? Go and pour two cups of tea."
"……yes!"
The housekeeper glanced at Li Ruo with concern, but still lowered her head and hurried to the kitchen.
Seeing this, Li Ruo's eyes turned cold: "Where is Mr. Wen?"
Fu Zhiqing chuckled lightly, her tone full of disdain: "On what behalf does Vice Minister Li inquire about his whereabouts?"
"And on what basis are you questioning me?"
Seeing that she was about to stop acting, Li Ruohong curled her lips slightly and asked a question without any politeness.
"Of course, it's my fiancée!"
Fu Zhiqing smiled, a hint of smugness on her face: "Vice Minister Li probably doesn't know yet, but the Wen family and the Fu family are about to be united by marriage, and I will soon become Wen Huaiyan's wife."
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo froze, her mind going completely blank: "Wife?"
