“You don’t have to be afraid. Perhaps after being locked up for so many years, that bit of hatred should have faded. Moreover, with Director Chu around, he won’t let you be in danger again.”
Ji Qing’s stiff expression eased a little, but her face was still pale.
She subconsciously looked around, as if she was afraid that Wang Chengwei would suddenly appear.
That was what happened at the orphanage.
He had suddenly taken her away when she was caught off guard.
She couldn’t forget the fear of facing Wang Chengwei alone.
He was like a lunatic. Back then, he didn’t care that she was still a child and punched and kicked her mercilessly.
He really wanted her dead.
If she hadn’t hidden in the tree and someone hadn’t rushed over to save her, she wouldn’t have survived until now.
If he still refused to let her off, then she…
Her hands intertwined nervously and helplessly. “I… should go back to the ward.”
The assistant nodded and followed her upstairs.
Chu Boyang had been busy the entire afternoon. He even got the company’s employees to order takeout for him for lunch.
After accumulating work for a few days, she worked until seven in the evening.
If Ji Qing hadn’t called him to ask if he had gotten off work, he probably wouldn’t have stopped.
After replying briefly, Chu Boyang hung up.
Then, she stared at her phone screen and opened her contact list to find Ji Fengmian’s number.
Come to think of it, she rarely took the initiative to look for him.
Especially when the two of them were throwing a tantrum. She had never taken the initiative to call him. The only time was at the hospital today.
She sighed heavily and rubbed the space between her eyebrows. She put her phone down and leaned back in her chair.
Her temper…
She never knew how to back down. She would do whatever she said.
After making a decision, he never gave anyone a chance to explain.
The office was exceptionally quiet. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest for a while. Then, he slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a few seconds before straightening his body. He picked up his phone, found Ji Fengmian’s contact number, and sent her a message.
He had to see if her temper was better now.
Ji Fengmian was lying on the bed with his laptop on his lap, watching a movie.
Her phone rang and she turned to look at the screen. Seeing that it was a message from Chu Boyang, she casually shifted her gaze back to the computer screen.
Half an hour later, the movie ended. She closed her laptop and tapped on Chu Boyang’s message.
—’Are you asleep? What did you have for dinner? I didn’t have dinner.’
Ji Fengmian deleted the message and stuffed his phone under his pillow.
“Shameless.”
Chu Boyang wasn’t surprised that Ji Fengmian didn’t respond.
It was not until nine o’clock that he interrupted his work and left the company.
As his assistant had been helping Ji Qing in the company and her condition was fixed, Chu Boyang did not go to the hospital the next day.
Ji Qing was a little disappointed, but she could understand.
She knew how busy Chu Boyan was.
Her phone was fully charged. After hesitating for the entire morning, she mustered her courage to call Ji Fengmian in the afternoon.
A few times.
Ji Fengmian cut it off.
She was indeed capable. After putting on a show for her in the hospital, she still had the guts to call her.
The phone didn’t ring again. He thought she had given up, but there was a message.
“Sister Mian, I think you seemed to have some misunderstanding about Brother Boyang in the hospital yesterday. It’s not convenient for me to leave the hospital now, but I want to talk to you. About why Brother Boyang has taken care of me all these years and about the child…
I know you’ve always been an arrogant person and you’ll be very disdainful of what I’ve suggested, but seeing how much Brother Boyan loves you, can you put your arrogance aside a little? I think even if you break up, you should understand everything before breaking up. What do you think? You can ask Brother Boyan directly, but I think Brother Boyan might not tell you too much.”
Ji Fengmian stared at Ji Qing’s message for a long time. In the end, he didn’t know if he should go or not, so he threw his phone aside.
Impressive.
Her words did tempt her.
She had to die a clear death.
She was indeed curious about what Ji Qing would tell her.
However, it was still two days later.
When Chu Boyang’s assistant saw Ji Fengmian, he couldn’t hide his surprise.
“Miss Ji.”
Ji Fengmian saw two other tall bodyguards in black standing outside Ji Qing’s ward. Their gazes were filled with warning and wariness.
It was as if she would be beheaded if she did anything strange.
She curled her lips and sneered at Chu Boyang’s assistant. “You’re indeed a treasure. You’re heavily guarded.”
“Uh…” The assistant felt awkward. “Miss Ji, don’t misunderstand. There are some special circumstances…”
“Another special situation?” Ji Fengmian fiddled with the bouquet of lilies in his arms and said with a faint smile, “You don’t have to tell me too many times. After all, Ji Qing is a special existence.”
She said nonchalantly, “Can I go in? Your Miss Ji wants to meet me.”
Her words sounded normal, but just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable.
What was Miss Ji?
In Director Chu’s eyes, how could he not understand who was more important?
She deliberately said some hurtful words.
She knew it in her heart, but every time, she would be choked.
“Miss Ji, please come in.”
Ji Fengmian looked at the two bodyguards and stepped into the ward.
Ji Qing was sitting on the bed and wasn’t surprised to see her.
She had obviously heard the commotion outside.
But she didn’t move. She sat on the bed and waited for her to visit.
“You’re here?” Ji Qing smiled happily.
Ji Fengmian placed the bouquet of lilies on the cabinet beside the bed.
“Tell me what you want to tell me.”
She hooked the chair to the side with her foot and sat down. She crossed her legs and looked at her with her usual cold smile.
It showed her aloofness and pride.
Ji Qing felt a little awkward. She smiled and remained silent for a few seconds before saying slowly,
“Do you know why Brother Boyan hit me at school?”
Ji Fengmian remained silent.
“Because he knows that I’m pregnant… Actually, if it were anyone else, Brother Boyan wouldn’t be so angry…”
Ji Fengmian’s lips curled into a smile. “You don’t have to remind me how special you are to Chu Boyang. Do you think I would care about this since I’m here today?”
Ji Qing shook her head. “Because I have heart disease.”
Ji Fengmian narrowed his eyes.
Seeing that she finally had a different reaction, Ji Qing smiled and said, “I bumped into you at the hospital a few days ago. I think Brother Boyang was planning to tell you. I deliberately stopped him. From your reaction, you don’t know that I’m actually a heart patient, right? I’ve always wanted to hide it, so I asked Brother Boyang not to tell anyone… Because I want to live a normal life.”
In the past, when I was in other schools, the people around me knew that I was sick. Their words and actions were filled with caution. Most people were afraid of getting into trouble, afraid that my sudden illness would affect them, afraid that I would kill someone, and they were unwilling to date me. Therefore, Brother Boyang transferred me to T University under my pleading. Since I was in a new place, he naturally couldn’t publicize the fact that I was sick.
I had this illness when I was young. Before I came to the orphanage…
Although Ji Qing was smiling, there was a hint of bitterness.
“Back then, my parents died in a car accident because of my illness. The man who kidnapped me in the orphanage back then was also because of this…”
Ji Fengmian looked at her calmly.
Ji Qing didn’t expect her to respond and continued, “Back then, my heart disease was only at level one or two. However, I was young and playful, and my body was weak. Occasionally, I would fall ill. Now that I think about it, I feel that my parents really love me. I think they wanted me to have a childhood that was no different from other children, so they were in a hurry to perform a heart transplant on me. You know that a heart transplant isn’t something that can be done just like that. I was lucky for a few days, months, or even a year, three years, five years…
The reason why it took so long was because I wasn’t the only one who needed this heart. There was also someone waiting in line for this life-saving heart.
The year of my parents’ car accident, it was because the hospital had found a heart that matched mine. However, there was a child a few years older than me waiting in front of me. His family had taken care of children with heart disease for so many years and their family conditions were not good. My parents gave them money and asked them to give their hearts to me. Once they gave up this opportunity, they would have to queue up again. Naturally, the other party refused…
Hence, my parents took a secret route and cut in front of that family to snatch the heart. Back then, the heart was in Ping Cheng City. In order to save time, my parents brought me to Ping Cheng City. In the end…
Ji Qing sighed. “Indeed, one can’t be too delusional. Otherwise, one will be punished by the heavens. I came to Ping Cheng City happily, but I got into a car accident on the way. In the end, my heart expired and I didn’t make it for the surgery. That child died within two years. That man, Wang Chengwei, is the father of that child.”
Ji Fengmian sneered. “All these years, with Chu Boyang’s help, haven’t you found a suitable heart?”
“You seem to think too highly of him. He started his own business and has supported the company all these years. He doesn’t have the energy to find a heart for me. He only started paying attention in the past two years…”
“So what? Does he want to follow in your parents’ footsteps and snatch the heart from others?”
Ji Qing nodded. “Maybe he didn’t think that way in the past. Ever since you started to have prejudice against me, he had this intention…”
Ji Fengmian paused for two seconds before standing up abruptly. He looked down at Ji Qing coldly.
“I’m guessing that there’s something going on with the source, so you made yourself pregnant as soon as possible just to continue staying by his side?”
Ji Qing didn’t deny it.
Ji Fengmian suddenly felt that Ji Qing was really crazy.
She was willing to sacrifice her life for the sake of a man.
“In order to give you a complete childhood and a life without regrets, your parents even sacrificed their lives. You’re willing to sacrifice your life for a man.”
“Do you think this is ridiculous?” Ji Qing suddenly asked her. “If that day comes, will you risk your life for Brother Boyan?”
Ji Fengmian frowned. “I’m not as stupid as you.”
Ji Qing smiled and said, “You might as well be honest when you were young. What were you thinking when you saved me back then? Weren’t you afraid that he would misunderstand you, hate you, and hate you?”
Ji Fengmian paused for a moment before he narrowed his eyes at her. “You’re mistaken. I saved you because of my conscience. Saving you in that situation isn’t a life for a life. If you survive, I have to die. Moreover, although I don’t care if he misunderstands me, hates me, or hates me, compared to his attitude towards me, I hope that he will feel guilty towards me for the rest of his life and never think of living with a clear conscience! And now… I’m not a ten-year-old child, and I can’t do those brainless things.”
Ji Qing didn’t seem to believe her at all. “As for the child in my stomach, don’t worry. It’s not Brother Boyang’s.”
Ji Fengmian sneered.
Ji Qing frowned slightly. “Don’t you trust him at all?”
“You’re wrong again. I don’t believe you.”
Ji Qing was speechless.
“There are too many cheap women in this world. You’re definitely one of them.” Ji Fengmian didn’t intend to hide her disgust for Ji Qing at all. “Not only are you cheap, but there’s also something wrong with your brain. I’ve seen cheap women before. In your situation, finding a way to get pregnant with his child is the simplest and most sensible way. In the end, you ran out to get pregnant with another man’s child? Ha…”
It was ridiculous.
Ji Qing’s eyes reddened and tears welled up in her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, causing her entire body to tremble.
“Because I love Brother Boyan, and Brother Boyan loves you!”
Ji Fengmian closed his eyes and began to exhaust his patience.
“I want him to be well and happy, so I have to fulfill his wish! If you hadn’t forced me and Brother Boyan, I wouldn’t have ended up like this… So you can rest assured now. There will never be anything between us…”
“Why should I be at ease?”
“You…”
“You said that the child isn’t his. Why should I believe you? What are the consequences of believing you? If I let you continue to have an affair with him in front of me and wait for the child to be born and confirm that I’m leaving? The best solution is that I don’t believe you. You don’t have to worry about the consequences and can’t sleep at night.”
“But you still got what you wanted. Regardless of whether the child is his or not, with his actions, he can’t leave you alone now. He has a heart attack and he still has to give birth. After giving birth, he still has to undergo a heart transplant. He’s really busy. Without a few years of peace, there should be no peace. There are too many messy and endless matters between the two of you. I don’t want to waste my time on you, so I won’t accompany you.”
