Announced divorce, madly criticized Ling Shaochang for kneeling down

"Hello, the number you dialed is turned off..."

A mechanical female voice came from the phone over and over again.

The man stood on the terrace, looking unhappy.

Turned off again!

"Che." A foreign man came forward with a glass of wine. Seeing that he had already made several calls, he smiled and asked in fluent foreign language, "Let me guess, is this call to your wife or your lover?"

Warren was in a very good mood having just finished discussing the cooperation and successfully signed the contract.

Ling Che smiled faintly, "I only have one wife."

"No way?" Warren said, clearly unconvinced. "How could a man as outstanding and capable as you not have a lover?"

Ling Che put away his phone, shook the wine glass in his hand, and nodded his eyes, "Only my wife can see here."

This direct revelation surprised Warren. "Now that you mention it, I'm really curious about your wife."

Ling Che sipped his red wine and looked at Warren. He was curious about every beauty.

Warren looked around and asked, "Why don't I see your wife today? Che, are you reluctant to bring her out?"

Ling Che smiled suggestively, "She left early because of something."

"OK, but unfortunately I have to go to the United States tomorrow morning, so I won't have the chance to see your wife."

Warren said this regretfully, clinking his glass towards Ling Che's and saying, "I hope I can see her next time."

"of course."

In the distance, Qi Jin hurried over, nodded politely to Warren, and then leaned close to Ling Che's ear and whispered, "People from Manheyuan said that the young lady just returned."

Ling Che frowned. He thought Qiao Ruyi would return to Yujingwan, but why did she go back to Namanheyuan again?

Warren saw that he seemed to be busy, and said with a smile, "Che, it's a pleasure to work with you today. You have something to do first."

Ling Che nodded, put the wine glass in his hand on the terrace, turned around and left.

......

When I returned to Manheyuan Apartment, the house was pitch black.

There was a faint fragrance in the air, the smell of shower gel.

The man didn't turn on the light. He walked to the bedroom door, gently opened it and looked inside.

With the moonlight coming in from the window, he saw that the thin body only occupied one-third of the wide bed.

Just looking at that thin ball, you can tell that it is curled up like a kitten.

Seeing that the person was sleeping soundly, the man breathed a sigh of relief and closed the door.

In the darkness, the person on the bed gently opened his eyes, his clear eyes showing no sign of sleepiness.

She heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom outside. Not long after, the sound of water stopped and light footsteps stopped at the bedroom door.

The person outside the door seemed to hesitate for a few seconds, then opened the door and walked in.

Qiao Ruyi fell asleep on her side with her back to the door. She felt the mattress behind her sink, and then her whole body was filled with the fragrance of shower gel.

Her back fell into the man's strong arms, and she could clearly feel his burning body temperature.

Then one arm gently wrapped around her waist, and the body behind her pressed even tighter against hers.

During the whole process, Qiao Ruyi kept her eyes closed and did not move. She could even feel the man's hot breath on her neck.

But he didn't move any further, just hugged her and buried his head in her shoulder.

I don’t know how long it took, but I could hear the man’s even breathing.

Qiao Ruyi opened her eyes, her heart calm.

She took the arm off her waist and got out of bed slowly.

Changing clothes and going out, the whole process was silent.

......

the next morning.

A white Audi slowly drove into the parking lot of the city hospital.

The man had just parked the car, got out and closed the door when a clear voice suddenly called him.

"Yi Mu."

Cheng Yimu turned around when he heard the voice and saw Qiao Ruyi sitting on a stone block beside him, looking at her with a faint smile.

"Ruyi? Why are you here?"

Cheng Yimu strode towards her and found that she looked very bad. There were faint dark circles under her big eyes, which were more obvious on her fair face. It was obvious that she had not had enough rest.

"Are you sick?" he asked with concern.

Qiao Ruyi smiled lightly and shook her head, "I came to see you."

It was only seven in the morning. Cheng Yimu looked at her haggard appearance and asked, "How long have you been here? You haven't been here all night, have you?"

"I only arrived half an hour earlier than you."

In fact, she came directly to the hospital after leaving Manheyuan in the early morning.

There was something she wanted to clarify with Cheng Yimu, but it was too late last night to disturb him, so she decided to wait for him at the hospital.

"Do you have time?" she asked with a smile, "I want to talk to you."

Cheng Yimu saw that she was only wearing a thin coat and said gently, "Let's find a warm place."

At the entrance of the hospital lobby, Ge Qiu had just come out after getting some medicine, and was talking on the phone. "Yiyi, I've got the medicine and am going back. The doctor said you're weak and shouldn't go out these days because it's too cold. I guess you caught a cold and had a fever because you went to the temple that day. I'm..."

Ge Qiu stopped talking before he looked at the figures of a man and a woman somewhere.

"What's wrong, Aunt Qiu?" Bai Yiyi's voice came from the phone.

Ge Qiu walked out of the lobby and said, "I think I saw Mrs. Ling just now. She walked out of the hospital with a man."

......

In a coffee shop near the hospital.

Cheng Yimu ordered a cup of hot chocolate for Qiao Ruyi. "Ruyi, I see you look a little haggard. Coffee isn't for you. Try something else."

He was always so attentive, remembering that she liked chocolate cake and knowing that she loved chocolate.

Qiao Ruyi took out her phone and pushed it in front of Cheng Yimu, smiling faintly, "Yimu, I remember you asked me where I was last April, right?"

Cheng Yimu was suddenly startled, his eyes falling on the photo from April on her phone.

That time, he specially made an appointment with Qiao Ruyi to ask her this question in person, but Ling Che's sudden arrival interrupted their conversation.

He looked up at Qiao Ruyi in surprise.

Qiao Ruyi chuckled and asked him, "So, where was I last April? Did I actually go to Country F? Why are these photos on my phone?"

She still remembered that Cheng Yimu had asked her at that time, were these photos really taken by her?

But at that time, she did not feel any doubts, nor did she take Cheng Yimu's words to heart at all.

She thought about it for a long time last night. Cheng Yimu must have discovered this matter at that time, so he took the initiative to ask her.

In other words, Cheng Yimu knew where she was in April last year.

Cheng Yimu frowned slightly, looking at Qiao Ruyi with a distressed look in his eyes, "Ruyi, actually, I hesitated about this matter. I'm not sure if it would be a good thing for you."

"So?" Qiao Ruyi pulled the corner of her mouth, maintaining that faint smile, "Where am I?"

"Kidney failure, in the hospital."
