Joes looked down at the phone in her hand. The contents of the message were ambiguous.
She pursed her lips and furrowed her brows. A moment later, she deleted the letter.
She turned off the phone screen and put it back in place as if nothing had happened.
Zheng Zeyi was still in the doctorâs office because of her discharge.
Joes dragged her shoes off the bed, walked to the window, and pulled it open with some strength.
The breeze seemed to have found an air outlet and gushed into the ward. Joes was only wearing a thin hospital gown. At that moment, she shrank her neck from the wind, but she did not turn it off.
She knew that it was not good to look at someoneâs phone. It was not appropriate behavior. Even if they were a couple, they should not look into each otherâs privacy.
Joes crossed her arms in front of her chest, feeling a little suffocated.
The text message was still lingering in her mind. Like poison, it was very lethal, and she couldnât recover from the shock for a long time.
At this moment, Zheng Zeyi pushed the door open and strode in with a gentle expression.ââWeâll be discharged tomorrow,â
Jossi adjusted her emotions the moment she heard Zheng Zeyiâs voice. She smiled innocently and replied sweetly,ââYes.â
However, she was really happy that she could finally get out of the hospital.
The atmosphere in the hospital was too depressing, too silent, and too extreme. In the few days that Joes had been here, she felt that she was going to see all the illnesses and deaths in her life.
There were teenagers who were crying in the hospital because they could not match their bone marrow with leukemia, or because their families could not afford the medical fees. There were also patients whose faces were covered in blood who lost their vital signs before they were sent to the emergency room.
â¦â¦
They were naked in reality, terrifying and helpless.
Joes closed the window. Her face was a little red, making her look more girly. She casually picked up an orange and put down her phone. Her eyes curved, and her tone could not hide her joy,ââI can finally be discharged.â
Seeing her like this, Zheng Zeyiâs mood brightened up. He rubbed the top of her head lovingly and said,ââIâll take you out shopping tomorrow. â
Joes blinked her eyes and said happily,ââAlright. Weâll go together!â
The orange was peeled into six pieces and joesse threw them into the trash can. She then split the orange in her hand into two and handed one to Zheng Zeyi.âHere.â
Zheng ze took the orange and finished it in two bites.
When Joes was eating the last piece of orange, the text message suddenly flashed in her mind.
Suppressing her joy, she slowly finished the last orange. Her expression was calm, and her high mood seemed to fall in an instant.
Naturally, Zheng Zeyi noticed the change in her mood. He raised his eyes, put his phone aside, and pretended to hug her. âWhatâs wrong?â
Joes met his dark eyes and leaned against his chest. She thought about what to say a few times before she said,ââXu Xin ...?â
Before he could finish, the emotions in Zheng zeâs eyes changed again and again. In the end, he restrained the gentleness in his eyes and said indifferently,ââDonât ask,â
He pushed Joes away, his lips pulled into a straight line, as if he was very reluctant to answer this question.
Joes stood rooted to the ground, her eyes gradually covered by feelings of loss and sadness.
Then, it gradually spread to her heart, pressing down on her until she almost couldnât breathe.
A moment later, she chuckled and said,âwhatâs wrong with Xu Xin? why is she so shameful?â You wonât even tell me?â
âDonât be like this. â Zheng ze stood up and walked to the window. He stared at the dark sky and said,âsometimes, there are some questions that are not suitable to be answered.â
The air fell silent as Zheng Zeyiâs last note disappeared.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The clock on the wall was ticking, and one second seemed to be a century.
He would be lying if he said he didnât care.
Joes lowered her eyes and did not force him to continue.
She took a deep breath and was adjusting her emotions when Zheng Zeyi spoke again,ââYou should rest first. Youâll be discharged tomorrow. After youâre well-rested, you can pack your things.â
The two of them were not in a good mood. Joes obediently got on the bed and said coldly,âOh.â
Zheng Zeyi sighed in his heart.
The weather was a little gloomy, and the wind that blew on peopleâs faces was also mixed with coolness. Most of the branches and leaves on the trees had fallen off, and the ground was covered with golden leaves. It was the unique beauty of autumn.
A gust of wind blew past, ruffling the branches and leaves on the ground. Zheng zeâs legs were sore from standing. He rested for a while, and when he saw that Joes had fallen asleep, he did not stay any longer and carefully left the ward.
The next morning.
The sky was even darker than yesterday. Not long after joesse woke up, large raindrops began to fall from the sky, making pitter-patter sounds as they hit the window.
Joes wrapped the blanket around her tightly, feeling a sense of peace and quiet.
She closed her eyes and felt sleepy again. Not long after, Joes once again fell asleep accompanied by the sound of the rain.
Zheng ze rushed over at nineoâ clock. He did not receive a reply from Joes, so she was probably still sleeping.
He was carrying Joes âfavorite meat bun in his hand. The steam rose and a layer of white steam appeared.
Not long after Zheng ze arrived, Qiao si si woke up. The woman on the bed turned over coyly, her eyes still drowsy.
âEh? What are you doing here?â Joes rubbed her eyes, her voice still carrying a hint of fatigue.
Zheng Zeyiâs heart softened and he laughed. âIâm here to take you home. â As he spoke, he passed her the steamed bun he had bought.âItâs still warm. Hurry up and eat.â
Joes got out of bed, washed up, and started to eat breakfast. Zheng ze stood up and said,ââYou eat first, Iâll go handle the discharge procedures.â
Joes nodded her head vigorously.
The discharge procedures were completed quickly and she returned with the form not long after. Joes finished her last bite of the bun and the two of them were about to leave when the door to the ward was pushed open.
The person who had come could be considered an uninvited guest.
It was Xu Xin.
She revealed that loathsome smile, and her voice followed her footsteps.ââSister has been discharged?â She paused and looked at Zheng Zeyi. Then, she said in a sweet voice,ââI was going to pick you up on Zheng Zeyiâs behalf since I donât want him to be too tired. Just a small matter. â
The underlying meaning of this sentence was that she was being pretentious.
Jossiâs eyes flashed with disgust, but she did not mind. On the other hand, Zheng zeâs face was as dark as water. His expression was not clear as he said in a deep voice,ââThe exit of the hospital is right in front. I wonât be sending you off.â
Xu Xin was confused by this sentence, but she was not stupid. She knew that Zheng Zeyi was chasing her away.
She would only be more embarrassed if she continued to stay here. Xu Xin snorted coldly and turned to leave the hospital.
