Hu Die raised her tearful eyelashes and looked at Li Yuanhang with a somewhat dazed look. She lowered her head again to make sure her mother's condition was stable, then stood up silently and asked Aunt Xia to take care of her mother closely. Then she felt relieved and left the ward with her.
Together he went to the corridor.
By the window, Li Yuanhang seemed to be feeling a little depressed. He lit a slender menthol cigarette and puffed away quietly, meditating quietly. His cold and handsome face was reflected on the glass.
Hu Die took a deep breath, wiped away the mottled tears on her face, and then slowly approached. She deliberately slowed down her steps to make herself look less panicked and helpless. She didn't want him to see her in such a panic.
sympathized with by him.
"Are you okay?!" Hearing her gentle footsteps, he turned his head and looked at her.
"Yes." She tried her best to smile, her face still beautiful, "I feel relieved that my mother is fine. Thank you very much for today."
He pursed his lips and said nothing, but looked at her carefully and frowned.
Due to the drenching rain, all the makeup she had carefully painted in the past faded away, revealing her original plain face. Her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, she was truly a beauty, but she was less bright, but more.
Poor and pitiful, like a rose falling in the rain, white and thin, heart-wrenching, something seemed to be surging in his heart.
After a moment of silence, she felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at her, but she finally saw sympathy in his eyes. She lowered her eyelashes, walked to the vending machine nearby, threw a coin in, and bought two cans of cocoa.
She felt two burning gazes following her closely, and she subconsciously straightened her back, refusing to show any vulnerability.
After taking out the cocoa, she walked back and handed one of the cups to him, "There's nothing to entertain here, don't mind."
His thin lips moved slightly, and he couldn't hide the arrogance between his brows. He muttered a few words vaguely, "I don't mind."
The two of them drank cocoa quietly. He would take a sip from time to time, but she kept drinking with her head down to calm her uneasy mind.
Looking out the dark window, she sighed quietly, her whole heart falling into torment.
"Why did you go to my house?!" She finally broke the silence and asked proactively, using offense as a shield of defense.
A strong tremor seemed to hit his tall and tall body. He remained silent, his fingers holding Cocoa slightly tightened, and he asked instead, "What are you going to do tonight?!"
She pulled her lips, her voice was slightly hoarse, and there was a trace of sadness in her tone, "I have no plan."
There are regulations in the hospital that family members cannot accompany her mother casually, because the ward where her mother lives is not a single room. If she stays at will, she will disturb other patients. She does not want to go home. After the storm, she can no longer imagine what the room is like.
, she gets a headache just thinking about it, and she can't bear any more tonight.
"Come with me." His fingers made dents on the cocoa jar.
"What?!" She was stunned.
"Follow me." This time, he didn't use a question, but an affirmative.
She froze suddenly and looked at him tremblingly, speechless for a moment.
"You don't believe me?!" He stared into her eyes, his dark eyes seeming to look into her heart.
She could clearly see that his deep eyes were gleaming with worry. As she looked at them, her eyes were a little blurry. Suddenly, something flowed out of her eyes. She didn't want to admit that they were tears.
Because even crying makes you look exhausted.
She shook her head silently. Although her eyes were full of panic, her purpose was clear and without hesitation. She nodded lightly and said quietly, "I believe it."
Just go with him, just tonight, just this time, let him help her find a safe and warm place where she can have a good cry.
"Then let's go." His voice was low, but extremely gentle, as if it could give people an invisible stabilizing force.
"Okay." She will remember this kindness and will look for opportunities to repay it in the future.
She secretly told herself in her heart to follow him decisively.
However, she never imagined that he would take her... home.
She thought he would help her find a place like a hotel to spend the night, but she didn't expect...
What I didn’t even expect was——
"Xiaotong?!" She saw Youtong and Rong Yuchi were also there.
You Tong was also surprised and hesitated for a moment, "Hu Die?!"
Not knowing what was going on, everyone looked confused.
Only Li Jiaqi understood something. She gritted her teeth secretly, her pretty face sank, and there was a faint fire in her eyes. She looked at Li Yuanhang, but he had a calm expression, and only his eyes flickered on and off. , unfathomable.
Because You Tong was present, and even more so because Rong Yuchi was present, Li Jiaqi couldn't say much. Although Li Hongtao felt weird in his heart, he didn't ask any more questions.
The servant served hot tea. Hu Die took it cautiously and took a sip. It was warm, but the fingers holding the teacup were trembling. Fortunately, Xiaotong was there. They chatted about some office topics, and the awkward atmosphere gradually eased. Some.
Li Yuanhang silently stared at the beautiful face with a peaceful smile in front of him, and felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
Sure enough, it was right to bring her back. Otherwise, if we just put her in a hotel room tonight, she might cry like crazy.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Hu Die checked into a guest room under the arrangement of the Li family's servant.
The so-called guest room was also beautiful, comparable to a standard room in a five-star hotel. However, the weather was cold and the maid said she would bring her a blanket later.
"Thank you, sorry for bothering you."
"You're welcome, Miss Hu, you are the young master's guest, please be more casual."
She smiled slightly and said thank you again.
The servant turned and left, and she gently closed the door.
I called Aunt Xia to make sure her mother was sleeping peacefully and everything was fine. Her heart slowly returned to peace.
But this night, I was destined to have insomnia.
She was about to go to the bathroom to wash up when there was a knock on the door.
She originally thought it was a servant who had returned, but when she opened the door, she found that it was...
