"No, he still has some activities in the kindergarten this afternoon." Luo Qingyun said with a smile, "I won"t disturb you to take care of Mister Chen."
Huo XIwen knew that she was teasing him, so he couldn"t help but blush. Without saying anything more, he got up and sent them off before turning around to eat lunch.
Halfway through his lunch, Huo XIwen"s cell phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up and looked at it. The call was from Fu Mujun, which caught her off guard.
She put down the chopsticks in her hand and picked up the phone. "h.e.l.lo …"
"Last night, you abandoned me and ran away. Don"t you want to give me an explanation?" On the other end, Fu Mujun"s voice did not contain much anger, but it seemed to be filled with curiosity.
"Sorry, I …" Huo Xi Wen was about to explain to him where he went last night, but he immediately remembered Luo Qingyun"s advice.
If this person wasn"t really Fu Yun and he knew the boss of that drug dealer called Qiluo, then wouldn"t she be exposing the fact that Chen Yanzhuo was helping the police last night and might bring him and the police some trouble? Thinking of this, she immediately became a bit embarra.s.sed and said: "Last night, something happened to me, so I"m sorry."
"A small accident?" This explanation clearly couldn"t be faked by Fu Mujun.
Huo XIwen stammered, "It means that there are a few days every month that women … You... "You know …"
After a few seconds of silence, his voice came over again, "Fine, I saw you running out in such a hurry, I thought something had happened."
"No, I"m just a little embarra.s.sed. I don"t want you to see me in such a sorry state …"
"It"s good that you"re fine. Since your body is not convenient, then rest at home for a few days. I won"t disturb you any longer." Fu Mujun said.
"Mm, thank you for caring about me so much." Huo XIwen"s face turned red from lying, but luckily, he was still on the phone and couldn"t see anything.
"I want to be more concerned about you, but it seems like the time isn"t right yet." Fu Mujun pointed.
"You … What do you want to say? " There was something in his words, he realized.
"Let"s talk about it in the future. I have something to take care of here, so I won"t talk to you for now. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." After hanging up the phone, Huo XIwen let out a long sigh of relief.
However, very quickly, she realised that she had started to guard against Fu Mujun.
Didn"t she always believe that he was the same Fu Muyun from before and that he was the man she loved deeply?
Now, in order to protect Chen Yanzhuo, she actually began to doubt his ident.i.ty and told him lies.
What was going on with her?
In her mind, was Chen Yanzhuo beginning to outweigh Fu Muyun?
No, no.
No one could surpa.s.s Fu Muyun"s place in her heart.
The reason she lied to him was because Luo Qingyun had reminded her that he might not be the real Mu Yun.
Yes, that must be it.
She lied to him because she wasn"t completely sure that he was Fu Muyun, not because Chen Yanzhuo was more important to her.
After convincing herself like this, it was as if she was hypnotizing herself, making her mind feel better.
Since she no longer had any appet.i.te, she packed the food box and took the clothes Luo Qingyun prepared for her to the nurse"s room to change into her hospital gown.
It had to be said that their eyes were indeed quite good. The style of the dress was very beautiful, but it was also very pink. It looked like a princess, which made her feel a little strange when she wore it.
He took the green roses into the sickroom. There was a small cabinet by the window opposite the sickbed. On the cabinet, there was a simple gla.s.s vase with lilies prepared for the sickroom in it.
The lily had been growing for several days now, and was fully bloomed. It was slowly withering away.
He took off the lilies, changed the roses and adjusted the leaves. The sunlight from outside the window shone through the white curtains onto the fresh and ethereal green roses. The fresh petals became more tender and alluring.
As she stood facing the window, the sun"s rays also shone on her body, causing her beautiful silhouette to land on the ground.
Contrary to the light, her entire body seemed to be covered in a faint layer of golden light, beautiful yet illusory.
Chen Yanzhuo opened his eyes and saw her playing with roses in front of the window. At this moment, the whole world seemed especially quiet. Other than her beautiful figure, there was nothing else he could see in his eyes.
She was about to put it in the trash can when she turned her head and saw that the person on the bed had somehow woken up. She was looking at herself with her eyes wide open and a gentle gaze, and her face immediately revealed a surprised smile. She didn"t have time to care about the lily in her hand, and threw it on the counter before walking to the bedside: "Chen Yanzhuo, you"re awake."
Hearing her voice, Chen Yanzhuo came back to his senses. The corner of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a trace of a faint smile. "Yes."
"How are you feeling? Is there anything wrong with it? "Forget it, I"ll go call the doctor first." Huo XIwen was very happy to see him wake up, to the point that her thoughts became a little messy, as if she was at a loss for what to do.
He ran out of the ward and went to the nurses" station to inform the nurse. Within a few minutes, the nurse and the attending physician came to check on his condition.
Huo Xiwen was waiting outside in the reception room, feeling very excited.
