"Thank you, Xuanxuan." Xuanxuan's words made me feel warm and guilty at the same time. I wanted to talk to her, but I always avoided her and didn't want her to tell Liang Sheng. This made it seem like I was petty and didn't trust her enough.
Xuanxuan handed me another piece of small cake: "Thank you for what's the use, as long as you don't do this again, I will be grateful."
Looking at Xuanxuan's exaggerated expression, I couldn't help but laugh. After eating something, I felt healthy and comfortable. It was already after five o'clock in the afternoon. I thought of things in the company and wanted to go back to work. Even if there is no one in the class later, I still have to find a way to sort out the information. To put it bluntly, even if I really want to go bankrupt, I have to make it look good.
"Aren't you?" When Xuanxuan learned that I wanted to go back and work overtime, she immediately stopped me: "No, you are still very weak. You need to have a good rest at night. We will deal with the matter tomorrow."
"I'll go now. It's better to sort out some things as soon as possible, otherwise I won't know anything about it." I thought there wasn't much problem with my health, so there was no need to stay in the hospital. I just got out of bed when Chu Jin came, and he He was carrying some fruit and when he saw me putting on my shoes, he asked, "What are you doing?"
"Go back to the company." I changed my shoes and stood up and turned around, only to see Liang Sheng standing there, together with Chu Jin. He was staring at me with no expression on his face.
After Chu Jin put the fruits away, his mother-in-law muttered: "What do you care about the company now? You should take good care of yourself first. It's time to get off work now. Everyone is rushing back, so you rush to the company. Do you think of yourself as Superman?"
My eyes were intertwined with Liang Sheng's, neither of us spoke. Chu Jin's noisy voice kept shouting. Xuanxuan hated the iron and steel and dragged Chu Jin away. I know Xuanxuan's thoughts, although she doesn't know how to do it. She encouraged me and Liang Sheng to be together, but still hoped that Liang Sheng and I could reconcile on our own. Xuanxuan didn't ask me what happened between me and Chu Jin, which was fine. Telling them these things would only make it heavier.
The lights in the ward have been turned on. Today's weather is relatively gloomy and hot, so it gets dark quickly. It's almost six o'clock, and it's already dark outside. It's not as bright and warm as usual when the setting sun shrouds me. I didn't stand there stupidly. I stared at Liang Sheng there, and just started to pack some things. The food Xuanxuan brought, and the hospital bag she brought me, which contained some small cosmetics and ID cards. .
There weren't many things, but I sorted them out slowly. Liang Sheng didn't say anything, just stood under the light and looked at me. Occasionally I would turn my head and glance at him. His face was covered with a faint sheen, and his eyebrows softened. , not as sharp as he usually reveals intentionally or unintentionally, and his clothes, I don’t know when, Liang Sheng, who is so strict in dressing, actually started to dress casually, the tie on his shirt was not tied, and the buttons were open. Wearing two or three clothes, the sleeves were rolled up on the forearm. It lost the sophistication and neatness, but gained a casual laziness, giving it a different feeling.
Even if they really break up, I think Liang Sheng will find another better "Shen Yan", but I may not be able to find another "Liang Sheng" who is the same. After such a big thing happened to Hua Yi, originally Two people with a huge gap in status will eventually grow further apart. I always believe that they are a perfect match.
I was thinking wildly in my mind and was rummaging around for some small things in my bag. At this moment, I pulled out a bank card from the compartment. At this time, I wanted to return it to Liang Sheng some time ago. Inside was the money he gave me. , I haven't touched it.
In fact, I really needed this money at this time, but I was so busy that I forgot about it for a moment. My hands were holding the bank card stiffly, and my mind was in confusion. Should I give it back to him
"Shen Yan—" Liang Sheng also spoke.
"Here you are." I interrupted him, walked up to him and handed him the bank card. I didn't know why I interrupted Liang Sheng so suddenly. I didn't know what he was going to say, but I was listening. The moment I heard his voice, I almost immediately decided to return the bank card to him. His voice was too tempting for me. I didn't want to hear what he said. After he finished, I hesitated. I promised my mother , I will never have these interactions with Liang Sheng again, so I can’t keep this money anyway.
If my grandpa's death was really caused by Liang Mohua, then with Liang Sheng's money or Liang Sheng's help, I think not only would my mother be unable to accept it, but I would also find it hard to be calm. In addition, if Liang Mohua After annexing Huayi in the end, I am probably the biggest sinner of the Shen family.
After all, I still became suspicious of Liang Sheng. It was not just an emotional suspicion, but also began to involve interests.
"What is this?" Liang Sheng's eyes held me tightly, with hidden displeasure.
I replied: "Aren't you asking questions knowingly? You gave me the money."
My tone was too contemptuous and too indifferent. Liang Sheng's mood suddenly became angry. He knocked the bank card directly to the ground. My hand ached slightly. Looking at the bank card on the ground, I silently Be silent, this is no longer mine, I won't pick it up.
"Shen Yan, is this your attitude?" Liang Sheng's voice was very cold. Even when we first met, he had never had such a cold attitude towards me. He was much taller than me. I looked up at him slightly. , but he lowered his head and kissed my lips smoothly. It was very gentle, but also very cold to the touch. It was not as warm and strong as before. I even felt that this kiss seemed so sad.
I didn't close my eyes, looked at Liang Sheng's long eyelashes, and then pushed him away.
Only by being more indifferent to Liang Sheng can I feel less guilty towards my parents, and can I feel that I really hate Liang Mohua, and I have no reason to let myself sink again.
Liang Sheng looked at me and smiled bitterly. The forced curve of his mouth made me feel a little uncomfortable. In love, indifference and rejection are more terrifying killers than quarrels.
"I don't need to bother you, but don't return the money to me. If you need it, I can give you more." Liang Sheng said.
"No need, I don't want anything." I shook my head. The calmness on my face reflected the turbulent desire and helplessness in my heart. When Liang Sheng said that he could give me more if I needed it, I couldn't think more. It's okay to rely on him like this, because I'm really too tired, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to support such a cruel reality.
Liang Sheng's extended hand stopped in mid-air. Maybe he wanted to touch my head or my face, but he took it back. I clenched my palm slightly, lowered my eyes and stopped looking at him, feeling wet for a while. A pleasant wind blew in from the window, and I heard the sound of rain. There is abundant rain in Haicheng in summer, and the rainfall is relatively frequent. It can pour at any time, so a sudden heavy rain is not surprising.
The rain was so loud that the sound of "crash" outside could be heard in the ward. Liang Sheng's voice before leaving was almost drowned in the sound of rain: "Shen Yan, is dignity so important to you?"
When I was with Liang Sheng, I always seemed to refuse his financial care for me, and I always had to return anything that was too valuable to him. I felt that it was inappropriate to misuse his money before we got married, but I didn’t know that Liang Sheng In her heart, Sheng thought that I valued my dignity too much. I did not use his money and maintained my independence. This was the principle I adhered to. At that time, I kept thinking that if Liang Sheng was so good, if I relied too much on him, he would change his mind. I'm afraid I won't be able to get used to it, so I must be more independent. Even if we are separated, I can continue to live alone.
Now that we are really separated, I stick to my principles, but can I live alone
After Liang Sheng left, Xuanxuan ran in. She asked, "Are they arguing again? Mr. Liang looked very unhappy. Chu Jin left with him. Yanyan, what's wrong with you guys?"
"It's okay, Xuanxuan, let's go. I won't go to the company. I'll just go home and rest." I said to Xuanxuan. Now I'm beginning to have some disgust with places like hospitals. My grandpa goes to the hospital. Yes, my mother is also lying in the hospital now. I hate this place.
Seeing that I didn't want to say anything, Xuanxuan probably expected that the situation this time would be more serious. She didn't ask any more questions and just went home with me. She said she would sleep with me at my place tonight. She was a little worried about me.
