In a high-grade ward, Luo Xiyun was lying on the hospital bed, her chestnut red hair hanging down naturally, reflecting her pale face, making her look extraordinarily weak.
On the sofa next to the hospital bed, sat a man in his forties, with a square face and meticulously combed hair, sitting there with a straight face.
On the other side, a young nurse was changing the infusion bottle for Luo Xiyun.
"Okay, if you need anything, just press the button above." The nurse ordered, and went out with the tray.
As soon as the door was closed, the atmosphere in the ward became oppressive.
"Nonsense."
The middle-aged man patted the armrest next to him, his voice was not loud, but it made people feel the anger in it, "If your secretary hadn't informed me, I wouldn't even know that my daughter fainted at home due to exhaustion and went to the hospital. "
Luo Xiyun lowered her eyes and said nothing.
When the middle-aged man saw her like this, his eyes became even more annoyed, and he shouted, "What is Liu Kun doing for food? I asked him to take care of you, and that's how he took care of you?"
"It has nothing to do with him."
When Luo Xiyun heard that he was angry with Liu Kun, she couldn't help but spoke a few short words, short of breath, "Yes, it's my own business."
The middle-aged man seemed to want to get up, but he held back, and his tone softened, "Look at you. You want to prove yourself, which is good. But, like you are now, if you have broken your body, even this project I made it for you successfully, and you look like you are making a wedding dress for someone else?"
Seeing that his daughter had stopped talking, he didn't know if she had listened, and said, "This month, you are not allowed to go anywhere, let alone contact the company. Just rest here and think about what I said."
Luo Xiyun suddenly raised his head, his face became a little more bloody due to anger, and said, "Why do you restrict my freedom?"
"If you don't listen to me, I will let Liu Kun leave the company."
The middle-aged man said slowly, "I will support you in whatever you want to do. But if you still don't care about your body like this, I won't let you go."
After finishing speaking, he stood up, "I will not restrict your freedom. The doctor agrees that you will be discharged from the hospital. You can go home to live, or go out with friends. The only thing is, you can't manage the company's affairs, and you can't contact people in the company."
When he reached the door, he stopped again and said, "Your mother certainly doesn't want to see you like this."
... ... ...
The middle-aged man left the hospital, got into a car, took out his mobile phone, and dialed a number, "Liu Kun, what's going on with my daughter?"
"Sorry, Mr. Luo, it was my negligence. I didn't take good care of her."
"I know the character of my daughter very well. Although she is very strong, she will not completely disregard her body for work. There must be other reasons. I think you should go and find out if it has something to do with Zhou Hao. In addition , check to see if she has gotten closer to any man recently."
"I see, Mr. Luo. I will give you the answer as soon as possible."
"I wait for your news."
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone, rested his head on the back pillow, closed his eyes and meditated.
Half an hour later, his cell phone rang, and when he answered it, it was Liu Kun calling.
"Mr. Luo, I asked my sister. A month ago, Xiyun and Zhou Hao only had two meals together. Xiyun rejected him. Since then, the two have not met each other. Moreover, she I didn't have any contact with other men either. I confirmed this with Secretary Guo."
His brows frowned, "Other than that, are there any other abnormalities?"
"One thing, it is said that when she rejected Zhou Hao, she said that she already had someone she liked. She didn't reveal who that person was. I don't know if it was an excuse. Also, my sister mentioned that for a while, she often did Some strange dreams."
"Strange dream?"
"She didn't talk about the content of the dream. Maybe it's because of too much mental pressure."
"I see."
After he hung up the phone, he looked at the scenery outside the window and fell into deep thought.
...
Night fell.
Chen Xu returned to the rental house, greeted Chen Ziqi, and went to the kitchen to cook.
"What's the matter, listless?" Chen Ziqi was watching the drama with relish, and when she looked up, she saw that he was not in the right mood, and asked.
Chen Xu shook his head, he didn't want to talk about this topic, "I'll make you something else today, I bought sixties and made seafood noodles."
Chen Ziqi said with a look of shock, "Do you think I'm easy to deceive when I'm young, and if I put a few sixties, it's considered seafood noodles?"
"Then do you want to eat?"
"Eat." Chen Ziqi said decisively. During the past few days of getting along, she has figured out his temper. Sometimes, it really makes people itch with hatred. He's still an older brother, so he doesn't know how to give in to his younger sister.
If it wasn't for the sake of the noodles, hum.
Behind Chen Xu's back, she raised her small fist and punched it a few times.
Soon, the seafood noodles will be ready.
Chen Ziqi quickly ate up a large bowl of noodles, burped, feeling a little stuffed, and complained, "Why are you doing so much, I'm stuffed."
"Didn't you say you didn't have enough food yesterday?" Chen Xu ate slowly, and there was still half a bowl left, and he replied while eating.
"Yesterday was yesterday, today is today." Chen Ziqi said eloquently.
Chen Xu didn't bother to talk to her, and just ate the noodles by himself.
Chen Ziqi propped her chin with both hands, stared at him for a while, and said suddenly, "I see, are you missing a woman?"
Chen Xu still ignored her.
"You are twenty-five years old, you don't have a girlfriend yet, and you are all alone. It's really pitiful."
Chen Ziqi shook her head and said, "With your conditions and bad personality, it may be difficult to catch up with the girl you like. Sigh, as a younger sister, I can't just watch you grow old forever."
"Well, let me introduce my girlfriend to you. She is my classmate. She is very beautiful. She can play the piano. She is black and straight. Many boys in our class tried to chase her, but they didn't succeed. It's cheap for you Well, who told you to be my brother."
Chen Xu still couldn't help it, and flicked her head, "You're so young, what's going on in your head."
"Tch, isn't it just the thing between men and women, who doesn't understand."
Chen Ziqi covered the place where she was shot, with a dissatisfied expression on her face, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. She is already fourteen years old, and it's not illegal for you to fall in love with her."
Chen Xu heard her talking more and more outrageous, felt a little toothache, and said angrily, "I don't need you to worry about my affairs, you'd better take care of yourself."
"Really? She has a good figure too, Tong Yan..."
Chen Xu couldn't take it anymore, so he knocked her again.
"I told you, don't hit me on the head." Chen Ziqi said angrily.
"Don't talk nonsense next time."
"Hmph, the dog bit Lu Dongbin, don't regret it in the future."
