Chapter 902: Chapter 904: Why Does He Know?
Hospital.
Jiang Jing returned to the hospital alone. Jiang’s mom had initially sworn she would come, but now, she didn’t want to anymore. Every time she saw Gu Mingzhu, she thought of those unpleasant things, only feeling that her son was truly unlucky to be targeted by such a woman!
"Jing-ge." Gu Mingzhu had recovered a bit and was lying on the bed. Her eyes lit up instantly when she saw Jiang Jing.
"Hmm."
Jiang Jing responded, placed the things he brought on the table, and left after sitting for a while.
"Jiang Jing, how can you leave at a time like this? Mingzhu needs company now. If it weren’t for you, would Mingzhu have had a premature birth?" Fang Yue couldn’t sit still seeing Jiang Jing about to leave.
"Mom, Jing-ge has other things to do." Gu Mingzhu stopped Fang Yue and lowered her eyes. She understood in her heart that there was no going back between her and Jiang Jing, perhaps...
No, she couldn’t let it come to this.
...
In the dead of night, the ward was very quiet. Fang Yue, who was sleeping in the accompanying bed, didn’t sleep well and rested in the empty ward next door.
Gu Mingzhu didn’t sleep; she was waiting for someone to arrive.
At one in the morning, a time when people were deeply asleep, the hospital was very quiet. A person dressed in black clothes and wearing a black hat quietly entered Gu Mingzhu’s ward.
"How did Jian Fang die?" Gu Mingzhu looked at the visitor and questioned, "Why did she die?"
"You didn’t want her to see Jiang Jing."
"I didn’t want her to meet Jiang Jing, but Jiang Jing already knows about her existence!" Gu Mingzhu shouted in a low voice. If she wasn’t afraid of Fang Yue next door hearing, if she wasn’t unable to move now, she would have really gone over and questioned her harshly.
"Isn’t she unable to see him now?"
"What does it matter if she can’t see him? He knows everything." Gu Mingzhu leaned against the big pillow, feeling particularly uncomfortable thinking about Jiang Jing’s cold and detached gaze earlier. Since the day she met him, Jiang Jing had never looked at her with such a cold and distant gaze.
He was clearly just a meter or two away from her, yet she felt as if a vast chasm separated them.
"Why, didn’t you say you could handle everything? Didn’t you say he would never know? Why does he know everything now?" Gu Mingzhu raised her head, pressing question after question.
The man pushed up his hat, revealing a scar above his eyebrows, and apologized, "I’m sorry, I overlooked it!"
"What’s the use of ’sorry’? Do you know that your oversight ruined my lifelong happiness!" Gu Mingzhu took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and said, "No matter what, Jian Fang’s matter must not be connected to me. She died as an accident!"
...
Xu Nianhua had pleasant dreams all night. In her dream, she got another beautiful little niece, and her second brother even married Su Xi; she even teased her second brother.
Just as she was about to get up, Ji Ying came upstairs to check on her and pushed her back onto the bed, saying, "You just stay upstairs and rest well. I made you brown sugar eggs, and I’ll bring them up for you to eat later. You rest properly, don’t go downstairs, got it?"
"Mom, why can’t I go downstairs?" Xu Nianhua felt wronged. She liked taking Zhuangzhuang for walks around the village.
"You need to rest." Ji Ying didn’t care about Xu Nianhua’s grievances. She just wanted her to rest well and take good care of her body.
Xu Nianhua: "..."
Despite only having blood drawn, she was being treated by Ji Ying as if she were in postnatal care!
