Chapter 1051: In a trance, the years were peaceful.

After the three of them left, only Su Ruoyi, Chi Zhenqing, and Su Xiaoli were left in the ward.

Very quickly, the nurse came and put Su Xiaoli on an IV drip.

After Su Xiaoli ate some snacks, she asked her mother to tell her a story. Su Ruoyi could only sit by the side and tell her the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Su Ruoyi had been avoiding Chi Zhenqing’s gaze. However, Chi Zhenqing’s gaze was too hot and she felt uncomfortable everywhere.

Fortunately, Su Xiaoli had just recovered from her illness and fell asleep easily.

Su Ruoyi got down from the bed and covered Su Xiaoli with the blanket.

“Xiao Li is asleep. If you have nothing else to do, go back early.”Su Ruoyi asked him to leave.

It was just that it sounded better.

In Chi Zhenqing’s ears, it meant the same thing.

“No rush.” He spat out these two words.

It was not easy to find an opportunity to meet, but who knew when they would be able to meet again and talk.

After the truth or dare, the relationship between the two of them had become distant again.

After he returned that day, he became moody and blamed himself for getting into a fight with Su Ruoyi on such an occasion.

Some things were better left unsaid.

Su Xiaoli was a cute child. He liked her very much. The child was already born and had grown so big. She was someone who existed.

There was no need to investigate who her father was. Even if she did, she would not be able to avoid the fact that Su Xiaoli was Su Ruoyi’s biological daughter.

Su Ruoyi tried to persuade him,” Aren’t you going back to C City? It will take a long time to get there from here. If you don’t leave now, you will delay your work tomorrow.””

She knew that Chi Zhenqing was very busy with work, no less than her two brothers.

Chi Zhenqing met Su Ruoyi’s eyes.

When she spoke, her fingers could not help but pinch the bedsheet. It was obvious that she was a little nervous.

After so many years, this little habit still couldn’t be changed.

She looked like a child.

In Chi Zhenqing’s memory, Su Ruoyi was just a child, a willful little princess!

A little princess who was doted on by the Smiths.

However, the girl in front of him was wearing simple casual clothes. Her long hair was not carefully styled. Instead, it was simply tied up and looked very plain.

She did not have any expensive jewelry on her.

He heard from his cousin’s wife that after she had a child, she no longer wore accessories for fear of scratching the baby.

Su Ruoyi was probably the same.

In the past, she loved all kinds of accessories. She was even willing to go overseas to participate in an auction for a limited edition necklace.

However, after she became a mother, she had changed so much that he almost could not recognize her.

In the past, when he wanted to leave, Su Ruoyi would directly hug his thigh and not let go when she refused to let him go. She would directly say,” Chi Zhenqing, don’t go. I won’t let you go. If you leave, I’ll be angry.

He was so straightforward and straightforward.

Now, although the words sounded nice, the meaning had changed.

She was so considerate and gentle, yet she chased him away?

Something happened to the child, and only her two brothers were there?

What about the child’s father?

All kinds of questions gathered in his mind and turned into one thought. He did not want to leave yet!

” I’m not in a hurry to go back today,” Chi Zhenqing said bluntly.” I have something to do in the capital.””

He would not tell her that he had arranged for someone to protect Su Ruoyi. He had only rushed over after he had received the news and settled down in the company!

He was furious because his men had been guarding Su Ruoyi for so long and had not seen the child’s father. Furthermore, his men had only been watching Su Ruoyi and had not protected Su Xiaoli. That was why something had happened.

He had come personally to make arrangements.

“Why are you in Beijing?” It was probably business. Su Ruoyi did not understand.” If you have something to do, go ahead. Li is asleep too.””

The person you came to see is already asleep. You can go now.

Chi Zhenqing picked up an apple and a fruit knife from the bedside table and started peeling it, showing no signs of leaving.

Su Ruoyi,”…”

What did this mean?

If he didn’t leave, she didn’t know how to chase him away.

Chi Zhenqing peeled the apple very quickly, just like before.

“Xiao Li is asleep and she has already eaten an apple today. She can’t eat anymore.”Su Ruoyi was not rejecting him, she was speaking from the bottom of her heart.

If Xiao Li could eat the apple that he had personally peeled, it would also be a kind of fate.

” Who said I was going to cut it for the little girl?” Chi Zhenqing handed the peeled apple to Su Ruoyi.” It’s for you. Take it.””

Su Ruoyi took it,

She had already forgotten the last time she ate an apple peeled by Chi Zhenqing.

“Hurry up and eat it. It’ll be oxided in a while.”Chi Zhenqing went to wash the fruit knife and her hands.

Su Ruoyi was worried about Su Li. She hadn’t eaten anything for two days and was a little hungry.

She faced the window and ate an apple.

Chi Zhenqing didn’t go over to disturb her when she saw her eating so enthusiastically.

Su Ruoyi had changed too much and was always on guard against him.

In the past, Su Ruoyi still had some baby fat, but now she was too thin.

She was like a completely different person from before.

After Su Ruoyi finished her apple, she realized that Chi Zhenqing was looking at her. She smiled embarrassedly and went to wash her hands.

By the time she returned, she had already controlled her emotions.

“Thank you…”

Chi Zhenqing laughed.” I was wondering why you’ve changed so much. You’re still so polite. Didn’t you always snatch the apple from me when you wanted to eat it in the past?”

“Ah… Was there? I don’t remember…” Su Ruoyi felt a little guilty as she spoke.

Actually, she didn’t care much about apples!

However, Chi Zhenqing liked to eat and would often peel apples for himself. In order to spend more time with him, Su Ruoyi would always snatch them from him.

Later on, she found out that Chi Zhenqing had always treated her like a younger sister, which was why she allowed her to do whatever she wanted!

It really wasn’t love!

“You stole so much food from me and actually forgot.”Chi Zhenqing didn’t look angry at all.

Su Ruoyi took two apples from the bedside and handed them to Chi Zhenqing.” Apologize.””

Chi Zhenqing was speechless.

He accepted it.

“That’s enough. Xiao Li likes apples very much. If it’s not someone close to her, she’s not willing to give it to them.”Su Ruoyi’s heart skipped a beat when she said this. She was really stupid. Why did she bring this up?

Chi Zhenqing placed the apple back on the bed.” I’ll definitely buy more the next time I see her. Why don’t I plant some apple trees in your place?””

Su Ruoyi was stunned for a moment.

She remembered that in the past, her wish was to be with Chi Zhenqing and have an apple tree in their yard.

But now…

No matter how many apple trees there were, Chi Zhenqing would be gone. It would only add to her sadness!

“Don’t bother, just buy whatever you want to eat. It’s very convenient now that you can even deliver goods to your home, and I don’t have time to take care of the fruit trees while taking care of Xiao Li.”
