Ye Fan saw that Zhong Xiaoqin was no longer in danger and was not going to stay in the hospital. He looked at Wang Manni and said calmly, "Manni, I'm going back. Do you want to stay here with Xiaoqin or come with me? It's getting late now. If you want to go together, I can give you a ride."

Hearing Ye Fan's question, Wang Manni looked at Zhong Xiaoqin lying on the bed, with a hint of worry in her eyes, and asked softly: "Jia Jia, is it okay for you to take care of Xiaoqin here alone?"

Gu Jia raised her head, her eyes swept over Ye Fan and Wang Manni, then nodded to Wang Manni, and replied with a smile: "Manni, don't worry! I can handle it alone, and this is a hospital after all, there are medical staff who will come to check on the situation at any time. You still have to go to work tomorrow, so take a ride with Mr. Ye and go back to rest. We will discuss and solve any problems tomorrow."

After saying this, Gu Jia gave Wang Manni a reassuring look, indicating that she was really fine. This look was like a beam of warm sunshine, penetrating the haze in Wang Manni's heart and making her feel a little relieved.

Seeing Gu Jia's firm attitude, Wang Manni's worries gradually disappeared. She nodded gently, as if accepting Gu Jia's explanation, but there was still a trace of doubt in her eyes. Then she stood up, waved to Gu Jia carefully, and left the ward with Ye Fan.

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Gu Jia's expression became a little strange. She frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. She was a little confused about the relationship between Ye Fan and Wang Manni. After all, she didn't know much about Ye Fan. Moreover, she had heard some things about Ye Fan from Qin Shi, which made her even more curious about their connection.

Gu Jia really couldn't figure it out, so she didn't think about it anymore. However, she decided to find a suitable time to ask Wang Manni about the specific situation between her and Ye Fan. After all, as a friend, she cared about Wang Manni's life.

Ye Fan didn't know what Gu Jia was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely cry out for injustice. He simply sent Wang Manni to the gate of the community and said goodbye to her. Then, he drove directly back to the Ode to Joy community.

In the car, Ye Fan smelled a faint smell of blood, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. But because it was late, the surrounding car washes were closed, so he could only wipe the car with a tissue. After arriving at the community, he quickly got out of the car and hurried upstairs to go home.

Just after Ye Fan left, a figure walked out from the shadows. He watched Ye Fan walk into the elevator, then quietly walked out, and tiptoed to the trash can where Ye Fan had just thrown the tissue and started searching. When she saw the tissue covered with bright red blood, Fan Shengmei jumped up in shock and almost screamed.

Fan Shengmei quickly covered her mouth, afraid of making any sound. She stared at the blood-soaked tissues with wide eyes, and her mind began to wander.

"That was Ye Fan just now, right? Why is there so much blood on his car? Could it be that he..."

Thinking of some terrible possibilities, Fan Shengmei couldn't help but tremble. She looked around to make sure no one noticed her presence, then quickly rushed to the elevator and pressed the button.

After returning home, Fan Shengmei finally breathed a sigh of relief. She leaned against the door, breathing heavily, and didn't notice Guan Juer in the living room at all.

Guan Juer stared at Fan Shengmei curiously, puzzled by her strange behavior, and couldn't help asking: "Sister Fan, what's wrong with you?"

Fan Shengmei's heart was still beating violently, and she took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. At this moment, she suddenly heard Guan Juer's voice behind her: "Sister Fan, what's wrong with you?" Fan Shengmei was startled at first, and turned around to see Guan Juer standing there, looking at her with concern. Fan Shengmei felt relieved, but she remained calm on her face, because she didn't want to tell anyone what had just happened.

Fan Shengmei rolled her eyes, thought of an excuse, and said to Guan Juer with a smile: "It's okay, Guan Guan, I was just chased by a wild dog downstairs, it scared me!" She tried to make her tone sound relaxed.

Upon hearing this, Guan Juer frowned and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, Sister Fan? Were you bitten?" She looked up and down at Fan Shengmei, wanting to confirm whether she was really okay.

Fan Shengmei quickly shook her head and answered nonchalantly, "It's okay, Guan Guan, luckily I ran fast." She was secretly glad that Guan Juer did not continue to ask.

As Fan Shengmei spoke, she walked back to the door of her room, pretended to yawn, and then said to Guan Juer, "Guan Guan, I'm sleepy, so I'll rest first. You should rest early too." Her eyes were a little evasive, as if she didn't want Guan Juer to see her inner uneasiness.

Guan Juer nodded and said gently, "Okay, Sister Fan, then you should have a good rest." She watched Fan Shengmei close the door, then turned and left.

Fan Shengmei leaned against the door and breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that this matter must not be spread out, otherwise it would bring her more trouble. However, she had some leverage over Ye Fan in this matter. When the time comes, can she use this matter to make a fuss and ask Ye Fan to help her?

As Fan Shengmei was thinking, she slowly fell asleep.

Upstairs, Ye Fan gently opened the door and walked in carefully, fearing to make any noise. He saw that Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing had fallen asleep, and the lights in the living room were turned off, and he secretly felt lucky.

He knew that if they saw him covered in blood, it would cause unnecessary trouble and worry, and he would have to spend a lot of time explaining. Now that they were asleep, he could save himself the trouble.

Ye Fan did not turn on the light, but took out his mobile phone, changed his shoes in the dim light, and tiptoed towards the bedroom. When he opened the bedroom door, he was surprised to find Xu Hongdou lying on his bed, but fortunately she was already asleep.

Ye Fan didn't dare to wake her up, and quickly took off his dirty clothes stained with blood, found a bag to put them in, and threw them into the trash can without hesitation. Then, he went into the bathroom, carefully washed off the remaining blood on his body, smelled it several times, and only walked out of the bathroom with confidence after making sure that only the fragrance of shower gel remained on his body.

Returning to the bed, Ye Fan looked at Xu Hongdou's peaceful sleeping face with a smile on his face. He hugged her gently, feeling her warm body temperature, and gradually fell asleep.

The hospital was completely silent, with only the occasional sound of footsteps and the nurses' whispered conversations. Gu Jia had been busy all night, and now her eyelids felt so heavy as if a heavy burden was weighing on them. She could no longer support herself and fell asleep directly on Zhong Xiaoqin's bed.

The morning sun shone through the window into the ward, soft and warm. Zhong Xiaoqin slowly opened her eyes and felt a little dizzy, but at least it was no longer as painful as last night. She saw Gu Jia sleeping on the bed, and she couldn't help but feel touched. She gently reached out and pulled the corner of Gu Jia's clothes, trying to wake her up.

Gu Jia suddenly woke up, and when she saw Zhong Xiaoqin wake up, she immediately showed a look of surprise on her face. She held Zhong Xiaoqin's hand tightly and said excitedly: "Xiaoqin, you finally woke up! You really scared me, I thought something happened to you!" As she spoke, tears slid down her cheeks involuntarily.

Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Gu Jia with confused eyes, as if she had not yet fully woken up. She tried to recall what happened last night, but her mind was in a mess, and she only remembered that she seemed to have a high fever. She asked in confusion: "Where is this? Why am I here?"

Gu Jia wiped her tears and explained to Zhong Xiaoqin with a distressed look on her face.

"Xiaoqin, you really should thank Ye Fan. If it weren't for him, you would never be able to be a mother in the future! And that Chen Yu, he actually ignored you, what a scumbag!" Gu Jia said angrily.

After hearing what Gu Jia said, Zhong Xiaoqin became even more confused. She only remembered that she was sent to Wang Manni's house by Ye Fan. She had no idea what happened afterwards, and why Chen Yu was involved.

"Jia Jia, what you said makes me a little confused. I didn't have money to take a taxi last night and I happened to meet Ye Fan. How can Chen Yu be involved? I just had a quarrel with him yesterday." Zhong Xiaoqin is still speaking for Chen Yu, which makes Gu Jia feel helpless.

Gu Jia felt extremely distressed when she heard her words. Thinking that Zhong Xiaoqin didn't even have money for a taxi, she hated Chen Yu even more.

After thinking for a while, Gu Jia told Zhong Xiaoqin what happened last night: "You had a fever and miscarriage last night. Fortunately, Ye Fan found you in time and took you to the hospital. The doctor said that if you were sent to the hospital later, your life might be in danger, and you just got pregnant. If you don't get treatment in time, you won't be able to be a mother in the future. At that time, Manni called me, and I immediately contacted Chen Yu, but Chen Yu said that he didn't care about your life or death and asked me not to meddle in other people's business. In the end, Ye Fan paid the medical expenses, and then he left with Manni."

After hearing what Gu Jia said, Zhong Xiaoqin was full of disbelief. She didn't believe Chen Yu was such a person, but thinking of Chen Yu's attitude towards her before, she couldn't help but start to doubt. However, when she thought of what Gu Jia said just now that she had a miscarriage yesterday, she felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears flowed down uncontrollably like a flood.

Seeing this, Gu Jia was worried that Zhong Xiaoqin's excessive sadness would cause other health problems, so she hurried forward and comforted her softly: "Xiaoqin, it's okay. The doctor said yesterday that it's a good thing you were sent to the hospital in time. It won't affect your motherhood in the future. At worst, we can have another child."

As Gu Jia spoke, she gently patted Zhong Xiaoqin's back, trying to give her some warmth and strength. However, when she mentioned Chen Yu, her face suddenly became gloomy and her tone became cold: "We can't have children with Chen Yu. We absolutely can't have such an irresponsible man!"

After hearing what Gu Jia said, Zhong Xiaoqin gradually calmed down. She looked at Gu Jia gratefully and said, "Thank you, Gu Jia. I know you have always been my good friend and will support me no matter what happens. But...about Chen Yu, I need time to think about it. After all, I still have feelings for him, and we have experienced many good times together. Maybe this is just an accident, or a misunderstanding caused by poor communication between us. So, I hope to give him a chance to explain and see if I can save this marriage. Of course, if I find out in the end that he is really not trustworthy, then I will leave him without hesitation."

"Jia Jia, let's call Chen Yu and ask him. Maybe you misunderstood him." Finally, Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Gu Jia calmly and said.

Gu Jia felt a little disappointed when she saw Zhong Xiaoqin's disappointing appearance, but in order to make her give up, Gu Jia took out her cell phone and called Chen Yu.

"Gu Jia, are you done yet? Didn't I say it? I won't care about her anymore. Let her die outside!" Chen Yu hung up the phone directly after he finished speaking, without even giving Zhong Xiaoqin any time to talk.

Zhong Xiaoqin was stunned when she heard the busy tone on the phone. She didn't expect Chen Yu to say such words. What she needed most in her current situation was the care and love of her family, but she didn't expect to get such cold and chilling words from Chen Yu.

Zhong Xiaoqin's face turned pale instantly, her body trembled slightly, tears welled up in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall. She clenched her fists, trying to suppress the pain and anger in her heart.

Gu Jia looked at Zhong Xiaoqin distressedly, patted her shoulder gently, and comforted her: "Xiaoqin, don't be sad. Such a man is not worth your sadness."

However, Zhong Xiaoqin did not respond. Her eyes were empty and desperate, as if she had lost all hope.

Gu Jia knew that no amount of words could heal the trauma in Zhong Xiaoqin's heart, but she couldn't help but say, "Xiaoqin, we'll divorce him when we're discharged from the hospital. This kind of man is not worthy of your love!"

Zhong Xiaoqin slowly raised her head, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes. She took a deep breath and said firmly: "Okay, I want to divorce him."

Gu Jia nodded and held Zhong Xiaoqin's hand tightly to show her support. They decided to find Chen Yu immediately after being discharged from the hospital to end this painful marriage.

Gu Jia looked at Zhong Xiaoqin and knew that she was very fragile and could not bear any more stimulation. So she walked out of the ward silently and closed the door gently, leaving Zhong Xiaoqin with peace and space.

When Gu Jia left, Zhong Xiaoqin finally couldn't suppress her inner pain and burst into tears. Her cry was like an outburst of long-suppressed emotions, full of despair and sadness, which made people feel pity.

Gu Jia stood quietly at the door, and when she heard the crying coming from inside, she couldn't help but feel helpless and distressed. She sighed softly, then turned away from the door, and decided to prepare a warm breakfast for Zhong Xiaoqin.
