After the doctor examined Lu Xiao, he glanced at Lin Qing, who was a little dazed, before leaving: "Mrs. Mu, you are in the hospital. Go get a check-up when you have time. I see that you haven't been in a good mood recently."
Lin Qing smiled and said, "Thank you, doctor. I'll be there in a minute."
Lu Xiao's condition did not improve significantly. Her throat was still unable to speak and she could only utter hoarse sobs occasionally. The whip wounds on her body were getting better little by little, but the injured area was too large and recovery was very slow.
The most important thing is that if Lu Xiao’s condition is to get better, she must recover mentally first.
Lu Xiao slept most of the time. The doctor said it was because she was escaping from reality. Lin Qing sat at the head of the bed and looked at Lu Xiao, feeling a dull pain in her heart. No matter what, Lu Xiao was like this because of her.
After a while, Lu Xiao got an IV drip. Lin Qing checked the time and sent a text message to Mu Li, asking him when he would pick her up.
After a long time, Mu Li didn't reply. Lin Qing didn't think much about it. She put the phone in her pocket and left the ward. The doctor's words just now reminded her. She wanted to take this time to get a comprehensive examination.
The physical examination building was separated from the inpatient department by several buildings. Lin Qing went downstairs and searched for a long time before she found it. Just as she was about to turn into the hall, two figures came into her sight.
The man has a tall and straight figure, with handsome eyebrows and cold features, while the woman is tall and pretty.
Although the two of them didn't behave too intimately when they walked together, they were an enviable match.
Lin Qing stared at the man for a long time before he was sure that he was really Mu Li. He was wearing casual clothes today, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and he and Xu Yuan were almost walking side by side.
Xu Yuan did not take the initiative to approach Mu Li, always keeping a certain distance.
Lin Qing's eyes were hurt by this scene. Just as he was about to look away, he saw someone almost bumping into Xu Yuan when passing by. Although the collision was only a light one, Mu Li still frowned and blocked it for Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan looked up at Mu Li and was obediently protected by him behind him.
This scene was nothing in the eyes of others. Even if they were not in an intimate relationship, it was normal for a man to help a woman block it. However, when Lin Qing saw it, he felt as if his legs were filled with lead and he was frozen in place.
Is this the reason why Mu Li didn’t reply to her text message
She wanted to ask, but suddenly she lost her courage. She used to be such a brave person, she was not afraid at all when she jumped into the river to find the ring, but now she was so scared when she saw Mu Li standing next to Xu Yuan.
For no other reason than that they had been together.
How can I completely forget the love I once had
Lin Qing stared at their figures for a long time, and finally realized that something was wrong with Xu Yuan today. She was not wearing high heels. Since the day Lin Qing met Xu Yuan, she had never seen Xu Yuan without high heels.
She saw them walk into the building in front and followed them unconsciously.
Lin Qing was not very close to the two men. When he caught up with them, he saw them entering the elevator. Lin Qing was stunned for a moment, and before he could run over, the elevator door closed.
There were not many people in the elevator. Mu Li stood at the back and Xu Yuan leaned sideways against Mu Li. At the moment when the elevator door closed, Lin Qing seemed to see Xu Yuan looking up and saying something to Mu Li, and Mu Li smiled.
He just curled his lips slightly, but he was really smiling.
Even Lin Qing hadn't seen that smile for a long time, and she stood there in a daze.
The elevator stopped on the fourth and sixth floors. Lin Qing went to look at the floor signs. The fourth floor was for pregnancy tests, and the sixth floor was the operating room.
She didn't know which floor they chose. Looking at the sign, she felt like God was playing a bad joke on her, but she couldn't laugh at all.
Lin Qing's palms were cold, and she suddenly touched the cell phone in her pocket. She took out her phone and called Mu Li.
"Mu Li, where are you?"
There was nothing unusual in Mu Li's voice: "Outside, what's the matter? Should I come pick you up now?"
Lin Qing stood at the elevator door, watching the number decreasing: "No, I still have some things to do. I just sent you a text message, but you didn't reply, so I thought you went back to the army."
Lin Qing tried her best to make her voice sound normal, she didn't know if Mu Li would notice it.
Mu Li frowned slightly. He would definitely tell Lin Qing when he returned to the army. Why did she suddenly ask this now
It wasn't that he deliberately didn't reply to Lin Qing's text message, but Xu Yuan had played the music very loudly in the car just now, and his phone was usually in vibrate mode, so he didn't hear it at all.
"I won't be going back recently." Mu Li said, thinking of Lin Qing who said he had stomach discomfort two days ago and had not been to see him in the past few days, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? I'll come to you later and accompany you for a check-up."
"No! I'm not feeling unwell." Lin Qing shook her head heavily. She heard the elevator ding, the elevator door opened, and people filed out. Lin Qing was standing at the elevator door, and someone accidentally bumped into her when they came out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The man apologized twice and looked back at Lin Qing. Lin Qing didn't say anything, but just shook his head at the man.
Mu Li heard the man's voice: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I was accidentally bumped into." Lin Qing said as he was about to get on the elevator.
"Bumped into?" Mu Li misunderstood the meaning of bumping into someone. Perhaps because of Lu Xiao's incident, he was particularly sensitive to the word. "Lin Qing, where are you now?"
What’s wrong with this woman? She said it’s okay even after being hit
Lin Qing was already standing in the elevator and pressed the button for the 4th floor. No one else was getting on, and the elevator door was closing: "I, I'm in the hospital."
Mu Li's face darkened.
Hospital
He completely forgot that Lin Qing was supposed to come to the hospital to see Lu Xiao, and thought that the woman was hit and sent to the hospital.
"Where is the hospital?"
Being asked this question suddenly, Lin Qing was a little confused: "Just... the place to go for the check-up."
Want to check
Mu Li walked outside while talking on the phone. Xu Yuan was still waiting in the room for a pregnancy test. She didn't want to do it because she wasn't pregnant at all. How could she find out that she had a child
But Mu Li said that he wanted to check first before going to the operating room on the sixth floor.
Xu Yuan had finally persuaded the doctor to help her, saying that her husband had cheated on her and she wanted to take this opportunity to win back her husband's heart, so the doctor gave her a false test result. Now that the truth was about to be revealed, Mu Li suddenly went out.
Mu Li's face was filled with suppressed gloom as he walked towards the elevator. He was very close to the elevator and when he walked over, the elevator had already reached the third floor.
"Where is the examination place?" Mu Li stopped at the elevator entrance and said in a gloomy voice, "Lin Qing, don't you feel uncomfortable if you don't get hurt now?"
"Injured?" Lin Qing paused while holding the phone, realizing that Mu Li had misunderstood. "Mu Li, I'm not..."
"Nothing?" Mu Li interrupted her coldly. Seeing that the elevator had not come up yet, he became annoyed and simply went down the stairs next to him.
He had just taken two steps away when the elevator door opened. Lin Qing walked down and looked at the long corridor, but did not see Mu Li and Xu Yuan.
There were a lot of people coming for prenatal check-ups. There was a long queue outside and many people were sitting on the chairs. Lin Qing didn't know where to go, so she had to look at each room one by one.
"I'm not injured. I was just bumped into. It's not a big deal." Lin Qing explained the situation and added, "I don't feel any pain at all."
Mu Li went downstairs quickly and reached the second floor. He stopped when he heard the words: "Does it hurt?"
"Yeah, it doesn't hurt, I'm fine." Lin Qing said seriously and walked outside Xu Yuan's room unknowingly.
"Lin Qing, do you mean that I have to hurt you before I can say I hit you?"
This woman said it didn’t hurt after being hit by someone. Were her nerves damaged
Lin Qing was about to stick his head in, but he stopped when he heard this: "Mu Li, it wasn't a car that hit me, it was a person. I just got hit on the shoulder accidentally, it's okay."
Mu Li raised his eyebrows slightly and stopped on the steps halfway up the first floor.
"I'll settle the score with you when I get home." Mu Li hung up the phone and went back upstairs.
Lin Qing was stunned when he heard the beeping sound on the phone and couldn't help laughing.
She was about to go to the back room to take a look when someone suddenly called her: "Lin Qing?"
Lin Qing's hand trembled as he put away the phone.
She turned around and saw Xu Yuan coming out of the prenatal examination room.
"It's really you." Xu Yuan's voice was a little cold. Seeing Lin Qing's expression change slightly, he asked, "Why are you here?"
Is Lin Qing pregnant
Impossible. If Lin Qing was pregnant and came for a check-up today, why would Mu Li accompany her to have an abortion
There was only one possibility, that was Lin Qing knew about her pregnancy, and just now he saw them downstairs and couldn't help but follow them to see.
Xu Yuan looked around the corridor and didn't see Mu Li. He was not there at the moment.
"I'm here to see a friend." Lin Qing suppressed her smile and took a step back. She didn't want to get too close to Xu Yuan.
"Friends?" Xu Yuan sneered, "You still have friends? Oh, yes, you have a friend in the hospital, but he should not be here now, but unconscious in the ward, right?"
Xu Yuan had heard a little about Lu Xiao, and she didn't have a particularly good impression of him. But if she knew all about Lu Xiao, she might not have said such harsh words.
"Shut up!" Lin Qing glared at Xu Yuan coldly. She couldn't stand hearing Xu Yuan talking about Lu Xiao like that. "Lu Xiao, it's not your turn to say irresponsible things about her."
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Why, what I said is wrong?"
"Yes, you are right." Lin Qing was not interested in continuing to argue with her about this issue. She also noticed that Mu Li was not there. "Then what are you doing here?"
"What are you doing?" Xu Yuan pointed at the sign of the pregnancy test room. "Of course, I'm doing a pregnancy test. Are you here to visit?"
"Pregnancy test?" Lin Qing frowned slightly, "Are you pregnant?"
Even though Xu Yuan was wearing flat shoes, she was still slightly taller than Lin Qing. She looked down at Lin Qing and said, "Yes, I'm pregnant."
"How long?"
"How long I've been pregnant, what does it have to do with you?" Xu Yuan naturally knew what Lin Qing wanted to ask, so she deliberately didn't say it. "I'm telling you, don't think you can say anything bad just because I'm pregnant. The father of this child will marry me sooner or later."
On the surface, she wanted to remind Lin Qing that although she was pregnant before marriage, she would always be loved by someone. In fact, she just wanted to say that Mu Li would marry me, Lin Qing, you should just leave obediently.
Lin Qing felt cold all over: "Marriage?"
