Shen Yuechuan and the other people only waited for a short while before Mu Sijue came out of the ward.
Mu Sijue motioned Ah Guang to take care of the discharge formalities, and then said to the others, âAunt Zhou and I will go back to City G today.â
Su Jianâan raised her hand gingerly and asked, âCan I go inside and talk to Aunt Zhou?â
â...â
Mu Sijue glanced at Su Jianâan, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.
He felt that Su Jianâan had ulterior motives for seeing Aunt Zhou.
Su Jianâan knew what Mu Sijue was worried about, so she added solemnly, âIâm just going to have a small chat with Aunt Zhou. I wonât talk about anything else!â
Mu Sijue was silenced by Su Jianâanâs words. He could only open the door and let Su Jianâan in. âGo,â he said.
Su Jianâan slipped into the ward.
Although she told Mu Sijue that she would just chat with Aunt Zhou, Mu Sijue would not know if she said something else to Aunt Zhou.
Su Jianâan walked directly to Aunt Zhouâs bed and greeted her, âAunt Zhou.â
âJianâan, youâve come,â Aunt Zhou said, âHowâs your mother-in-law?â
âThe doctor treated her wounds. She is fine now,â then Su Jianâan changed the subject, âAunt Zhou, I want to talk to you about something else.â
Aunt Zhou quickly guessed and said, âItâs about Youning, right?â
Su Jianâan nodded, âYes.â
Aunt Zhou sighed and said, âI heard about it from Little Seven. Iâve tried to persuade him, but he insists on going back to City G. Jianâan, did you come to me because you found something?â
âYes,â Su Jianâan nodded, âAunt Zhou, I think there might be some misunderstanding between them.â
âWhat misunderstanding?â Aunt Zhou sat up and looked at Su Jianâan eagerly, âJianâan, why didnât you tell Little Seven?â
Su Jianâan spread her hands in despair and said, âI wanted to. But he didnât want to listen to me at all. The most important thing is... itâs just my idea. I canât be 100% sure that there was really a misunderstanding.â
Su Jianâan paused and then continued solemnly, âAunt Zhou, I need you to do me a favor.â
âSure,â Aunt Zhou nodded, âAs long as I can do it, I will definitely help you.â
Su Jianâan smiled and said, âAunt Zhou, after you return to City G, please help me pay more attention to Sijue and ask him from time to time about the details when Youning took the medicine. I think this is the crux of the matter, but Sijue is unwilling to tell me anything.â
Aunt Zhou patted Su Jianâanâs hand and said, âOkay, Iâll help you.â
Aunt Zhou was the person Mu Sijue trusted most. With her help, Su Jianâan would have a smoother investigation.
A grin spread across Su Jianâanâs face. âThank you, Aunt Zhou,â she said.
âNot at all,â Aunt Zhou said, âin fact, I am doing it for Sijue. Jianâan, you donât know how much I wish it to be just a misunderstanding.â
â...â Su Jianâan didnât quite understand and could only wait for Aunt Zhouâs next words.
Aunt Zhou continued, âYouning is too important to Little Seven. Now that such a thing happened, he is probably completely disappointed in Youning. After returning to City G, Little Seven will definitely revert to the person he used to be. However, I prefer what he is like nowâlively and sentient.â
Su Jianâan nodded in agreement.
The Little Seven, who would laugh, cry and be jealous of Mumu during this time, was such a cute person.
In comparison, the previous cold-blooded and decisive Brother Mu Qi... was too horrible.
âAunt Zhou, thatâs our deal,â Su Jianâan made a gesture of making a phone call, âletâs keep in touch.â
âOkay,â Aunt Zhou agreed happily, âWeâll keep in touch.â
Su Jianâan then added, âMy mother-in-law is in the ward next door. Would you like to visit her?â
When they were kidnapped by Kang Ruicheng, Aunt Zhou and Tang Yulan depended on each other. They got along well with each other and could always find topics to talk about, which made those days more bearable.
Now as Aunt Zhou was about to leave, it would be proper for her to say goodbye to Tang Yulan.
Su Jianâan helped Aunt Zhou sit up and get in the wheelchair, and pushed her out.
Seeing Aunt Zhou coming out, Mu Sijue asked in a hurry, âAunt Zhou, where are you going?â
âIâm going to say goodbye to Boyanâs mother,â Aunt Zhou said, âwait for me here.â
Mu Sijue glanced at Su Jianâan again.
Su Jianâan spread her hands innocently, saying, âI really just talked about domestic trivia with Aunt Zhou. If you donât believe me, you can ask Aunt Zhou.â
Aunt Zhou didnât say anything. Although Mu Sijue had his doubts, he had nothing on Su Jianâan and could only watch her push Aunt Zhou into the ward.
Outside the ward, Mu Sijue looked at Lu Boyan and said with sarcasm, âI couldnât tell that your wife would be so capable when she was still a young girl.â
Lu Boyan didnât respond to Mu Sijueâs barb. He said, âI know my wife is an able person. As for you, it doesnât matter whether you can see it or not.â
Mu Sijue intended to accuse Su Jianâan.
However, in Lu Boyanâs words, Mu Sijue was praising Su Jianâan..
Whatâs more, Lu Boyan said he did not need others to praise his wife.
Damn it! A hen-pecked husband really knows how to protect his wife!
After a while, Su Jianâan pushed Aunt Zhou out of Tang Yulanâs ward. At this time, Ah Guang had settled the formalities for Aunt Zhouâs discharge and said, âSeventh Brother, our private plane is already on standby at the parking apron on the roof.â
Mu Sijue took Aunt Zhouâs wheelchair and bade farewell to the others, âIâm leaving.â
He was completely calm and showed no reluctance to leave.
It was as if he had experienced nothing special when he stayed at City A for such a long time: he had never met Xu Youning, nor did he know that she carried his child and killed this child with her own hands.
Aunt Zhou said she didnât want to see Mu Sijue revert to the person he used to be.
However, it seemed to Su Jianâan that Mu Sijue was already back to his old self.
Ah Guang ran to press the elevator button. Soon, Mu Sijue pushed Aunt Zhou in and went to the parking apron on the roof.
The hospital had a good soundproof system in order to ensure patients got enough rest. Consequently, Su Jianâan did not hear the private plane take off at all.
However, she knew that Mu Sijue left City A and no longer missed Xu Youning.
Hopefully, it was a brand new beginning for Mu Sijue and Xu Youning, not the end.
Xiao Yunyun wiped her eyes and said, âI want to cry...â
âWhy?â Su Jianâan asked.
âBecause of Boss Mu,â Xiao Yunyun said in a sobbing tone, âI suddenly pity him. Xu Youning just left. He should be very sad, but he didnât say anything.â
Yes, Mu Sijue should be very sad.
He had thought that Xu Youning had finally come back to him. She carried his child and even promised to marry him.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would have a complete family soon.
But the child was gone and Xu Youning left and all this happened overnight.
However, there was no trace of sadness on Mu Sijueâs face.
He was sad actually. But he didnât want to show it in front of others.
After all, he was Mu Sijue.
Shen Yuechuan rubbed Xiao Yunyunâs head and said, âIf you dare to say he is pitiful to his face, you will really cry.â
Mu Sijue would beat Xiao Yunyun until she cried.
Xiao Yunyun knew what Shen Yuechuan meant. She snorted and said confidently, âBoss Mu wonât beat me!â
Boss Mu always indulged her a little.
Shen Yuechuan didnât know whether to laugh or cry. âIâm going to see Auntie Tang. Will you come with me?â He asked.
âSure!â Xiao Yunyun said while holding Shen Yuechuanâs hand.
They held each otherâs hands and entered Tang Yulanâs ward.
Su Jianâan said softly with a little emotion, âThatâs so great.â
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and asked, âWho is great?â
âYuechuan and Yunyun,â Su Jianâan answered, âYuechuan will receive his last treatment soon. He and Yunyun should be the ones who are worried, but they are more optimistic than any of us.â
Lu Boyan took Su Jianâanâs hand and said, âLetâs go inside too.â
Because of Xiao Yunyun, the ward suddenly came alive. The girl was chirpy and made Tang Yulan laugh. But she never brought up the topic of Tang Yulanâs experiences in the Kang family.
Xiao Yunyun talked a lot, but she knew what to say.
She wouldnât say anything improper.
Lu Boyan left the hospital soon and went to the company to deal with some business. Shen Yuechuan had to undergo some checkups.
There were only Tang Yulan, Su Jianâan, and Xiao Yunyun left in the ward.
Xiao Yunyun asked, âJianâan, will you and cousin-in-law live on the top of the mountain?â
âI donât know yet,â Su Jianâan answered, âin fact, Iâm tired of living there after staying for so many days. But I have to listen to Boyan. If he would like to live there, we canât go home.â
Xiao Yunyun stuck out her tongue and said, âFine.â
Su Jianâan looked at the time and said, âYunyun, Iâll go to the supermarket. Do you want to go with me?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYes!â Xiao Yunyun stood up and said, âI want to buy a lot of snacks. Iâm bored here.â
âJianâan, why do you need to go to the supermarket?â Tang Yulan was not as excited as Xiao Yunyun, and she suddenly caught the key point.
Su Jianâan responded, âThere are kitchen utensils in the suite on the top floor. I want to buy some food and cook for you.â
âDonât bother,â Tang Yulan said, âXiyu and Xiangyi are left on the top of the mountain. Only Uncle Xu and Aunt Liu are taking care of them. You should go back to accompany them. The nurses here will look after me.â
âMom, donât worry about Xiyu and Xiangyi,â Su Jianâan said, âThey are very well behaved these days. Even Xiaoxi can deal with them, what more for Uncle Xu and Aunt Liu.â
After that, Su Jianâan didnât give Tang Yulan a chance to say anything more. She directly pulled Xiao Yunyun away.
There was a large supermarket near the hospital. After Su Jianâan and Xiao Yunyun went inside, the bodyguards who wore casual clothes also followed them in, protecting them from a distance.
Su Jianâan knew that the bodyguards would keep Xiao Yunyun and herself safe, so she shopped with ease.
When picking vegetables in the fruit and vegetable area, Su Jianâan suddenly as if someone was staring fixedly at her. She thought that she was thinking too much until a familiar figure came into her sight...
