Chapter 287: Chapter 287 He Really Cares About You

Su Zixi hadn’t expected that upon leaving the basement, the first person she would see was Ning Yichen.

He stood at the staircase entrance, clad in a white suit that was spotless, his thin lips tightly sealed, his gaze fixated intently upon her.

Because it was so unexpected, Su Zixi was also momentarily stunned, and to others, it appeared as if… she and Ning Yichen were gazing at each other with deep affection.

He Jingyao’s eyes darkened slightly, and he smiled faintly, “I didn’t expect Mr. Ning to be here too, thank you for your concern.”

It was then that Su Zixi came back to her senses, slightly guilty, she averted her gaze.

Ning Yichen also lowered his eyes, speaking in a flat tone, “It’s nothing, as long as you’re both unharmed.”

“Sir,” Feng Qian hurried forward, “The car is waiting outside. I’ve already contacted Siming Hospital; you and the Young Mistress should go there for a check-up first.”

He Jingyao slightly furrowed his brows, about to object, when Su Zixi readily agreed, “Alright!”

The man glanced at her and raised an eyebrow.

Su Zixi glared at him.

Had he already forgotten his… condition from earlier?

Since it was an abnormal situation, of course, a check-up was necessary.

He Jingyao realized something from her annoyed gaze and his eyes took on an ambiguous smile.

Su Zixi quickly avoided his gaze, but her ears turned slightly red.

Ning Yichen stood aside, taking in the interaction between the two of them.

His gaze finally rested on their intertwined hands before indifferently moving away.

…

Siming Hospital.

After taking a shower, Su Zixi sat on the hospital bed, having just had her blood drawn for testing, and then she began to eat.

It was already three in the afternoon, she hadn’t taken a drop of water since lunch and was already starving.

She wondered how He Jingyao was doing… Although they were husband and wife, there was no reason for them to stay in the same hospital room since they were both patients…

While Su Zixi was halfway through her meal, Liu Minjun came in with He Ziyi.

Upon seeing Su Zixi, He Ziyi excitedly threw herself at her. Su Zixi quickly pushed the meal tray aside and gave her a warm embrace.

“Wuwuwu…” He Ziyi laid on her shoulder and began to cry.

“Ziyi, your sister-in-law is alright,” Su Zixi softly said with tenderness in her heart, patting her back. “See, didn’t I tell you I’d come out alright?”

Liu Minjun couldn’t help but feel amused and relieved, “Ziyi, there, there, let your sister-in-law eat.”

Only then did He Ziyi, with sobs abating, let go of her and obediently returned to Liu Minjun’s side.

Liu Minjun patted her, then turned to Su Zixi with a complicated expression, “Zhixi, I’m sorry. Back then, I forced Jingyao to make a choice.”

Su Zixi was taken aback, then gently shook her head, “It’s alright, I understand.”

Although she felt a pang of sadness, it was, after all, a natural human reaction. For Liu Minjun, the weight of her and He Ziyi was clear.

“I have no right to ask for your forgiveness,” Liu Minjun said with a bitter smile. “No matter how sufficient my reasons, I wronged you. But you can be mad at me; just don’t take it out on Jingyao, he… he really does care about you a lot.”

Su Zixi smiled.

She nodded vigorously, “I know. He risked danger for my sake, how could I possibly blame him.”

“That’s good to hear,” Liu Minjun’s eyes reddened slightly, and she wiped the corner of her eyes as if to cover up, “I’m just glad that both you and Jingyao are safe… Rest well, I won’t disturb you any longer.”
