"Let's go back to our villa."

Shen Zhixia answered gently, but her heart was beating very erratically because of my words.

What's wrong with Ji Nanchen?

Does he not want to go back?

She thought about what Dr. Chen Cheng had just said and wondered if she would agree if she asked to move out.

She didn't want to agree, but she was afraid of upsetting me and causing my illness, which I had finally managed to cure, to relapse.

But to her surprise, what I said the next second took her by surprise.

“Shen Zhixia, I did not bully Xu Jin that day, nor did I hit his forehead with a porcelain bowl.”

"I know."

Shen Zhixia said in a deep voice, her heart beating faster than usual.

She didn't understand why I suddenly brought this up, and was afraid that if I gave a bad answer, I would get angry.

I stared intently at Shen Zhixia, who was standing not far away, my eyes filled with mockery.

"You thought I did those things, so you splashed me with white fungus soup and tried to hit my forehead with a porcelain bowl to get revenge. Now that you know I didn't do it, what about him?"

“Ji Nanchen, I misunderstood you because of my preconceived notions about what happened that day. The first half of the video surveillance footage was fabricated. I was very angry when I found out. I have already made Xu Jin move out of the villa and warned him that this will not happen again.”

Upon hearing this, I unconsciously clenched my fists at my sides and looked at her with a cold expression.

When Meng Jinghuai found them with the evidence that day, the police had already been called, but the case was later withdrawn.

I can guess that Shen Zhixia wanted to suppress the matter, so she withdrew the case.

But why?

Why is it that Xu Jin can slander me without facing any punishment?

I stared at Shen Zhixia with a sullen face and dark eyes.

"Did you withdraw the case filed by Meng Jinghuai after he reported it to the police?"

Shen Zhixia looked at me with complicated eyes, without saying a word.

I know, it's her.

I gave a mocking laugh and continued, "Shen Zhixia, I want to divorce you, but you probably won't agree. You'll only use all sorts of means to threaten me and stop me, right?"

"Yes, I won't allow you to divorce me."

Shen Zhixia could feel the pain in her chest becoming more and more pronounced, as if something important had disappeared without her noticing.

I looked down at the floor tiles and forced a bitter smile.

“I know that all the things you’ve done from the beginning were to get revenge on me. Now that I’m still alive and well, how could you possibly divorce me so easily?”

Shen Zhixia frowned even more. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

My body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and my voice became a little hoarse when I spoke again.

"Shen Zhixia, is it really only when I'm dead that you'll be satisfied?"

During this time, I stayed in the hospital, and I didn't sleep very well. Every time I fell asleep, I would see my deceased parents.

Some dreams are strange. My father, who has never been very kind to me in the past, keeps doing things to please me in my dreams, as if he wants to get my forgiveness.

But why should I forgive him?

If I forgive him, who can save the old me?

And then there's Zhang Guifen, my mother. In my dreams, she keeps talking about how much she's sacrificed for me over the years, what she's done, and how ungrateful I am.

Finally, she tearfully said that she knew she was wrong, and that if she had known I would turn out this way, she would have been kinder to me.

But there's no such thing as knowing beforehand.

I am indeed a bit tired.

Whenever I think of them or dream of them, I feel a sharp pain in my heart, and the urge to end it all lingers in my mind.

Before I fell into a coma in the operating room, I had Su Jinyun install a surveillance camera in my hospital room. My original intention was to take revenge on Shen Zhixia and Xu Jin starting from that day.

But now I realize that what I really want is to have nothing to do with Shen Zhixia and Xu Jin anymore.

Suddenly, Shen Zhixia spoke, interrupting my thoughts.

She said, "Ji Nanchen, I know you hate me right now, but please believe me, I will make it up to you in the future. Apart from the divorce and Xu Jin, I will agree to anything you want."

I looked at Shen Zhixia quietly for a long while before finally saying, "Shen Zhixia, I want to go home."

"Okay, let's go home."

As soon as Shen Zhixia finished speaking, I continued, "Before I go home, I'd like to have a private talk with Meng Jinghuai."

Should we have a private talk with Meng Jinghuai?

Is there anything she can't hear?

Suddenly, Shen Zhixia realized that Ji Nanchen's savior was not her. What if Meng Jinghuai told Ji Nanchen about this if they were alone together?

Just as Shen Zhixia was struggling with her decision, I asked her indifferently.

"You won't agree?"

"No, I'll go get him now."

Shen Zhixia uttered two words indifferently, then turned and walked towards the door of the ward.

She had just promised Ji Nanchen that she would agree to anything except divorce and Xu Jin, so it wasn't good to go back on her word now.

Meng Jinghuai also came to the hospital today. Upon learning that Ji Nanchen could be discharged, he immediately went to Dr. Chen Cheng's office to inquire about Ji Nanchen's recovery.

Soon, Shen Zhixia found Meng Jinghuai, who had just come out of Dr. Chen Cheng's office.

When Meng Jinghuai saw her, he paused slightly and frowned unhappily.

Shen Zhixia, seemingly oblivious to his displeasure, walked straight up to him and said in a low voice, "Nan Chen wants to talk to you alone. He's waiting for you in the ward right now."

"it is good."

Meng Jinghuai gave a faint reply and strode quickly toward the ward.

He had only taken two steps when Shen Zhixia, standing behind him, called out to him.

"Meng Jinghuai".

"Anything else?"

Meng Jinghuai didn't turn around. His intuition told him that Shen Zhixia's visit to him was definitely not a good thing.

The next second, Shen Zhixia's indifferent voice rang out behind him, "Ji Nanchen's physical condition is still unstable. There are some things that don't need to be known to him."

She said this with a hint of threat in her tone.

Meng Jinghuai understood, but he felt there was no need to argue with Shen Zhixia, so he replied in a deep voice, "I know, you can handle your family matters yourselves."

"As long as you know."

Shen Zhixia was very satisfied with Meng Jinghuai's answer, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

As long as he doesn't tell, Ji Nanchen will never know the truth.

It's fine if we just keep making mistakes like this.

When Meng Jinghuai arrived at the ward, I was staring blankly at the sky outside the window.

"Clap."

The ward door closed, and Meng Jinghuai walked towards me step by step, finally sitting down next to me. "What do you want to tell me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, I turned and looked at him with deep eyes.

"Can you tell me what you've been hiding from me now?"
