After hanging up the phone, Ruan Xingwan stood by the balcony for a long time.
It was raining heavily outside, and there were no pedestrians on the streets in the distance. There were only a few street lamps standing alone in the rain.
After a long time, she exhaled, walked to the kitchen, turned off the fire, put the porridge in a bowl, put it on the tray, and entered the bedroom.
There was no light on in the bedroom, and it was so quiet that I could only hear the sound of raindrops hitting the glass.
Ruan Xingwan put the tray on the coffee table, turned on a small wall lamp, walked next to Zhou Cishen, and saw that he had his eyes closed and his breathing was steady, as if he was asleep.
Ruan Xingwan reached out and touched his forehead, but there was no fever.
She couldn't help but frown, she had been sleeping for so long, why was it still so cold?
Ruan Xingwan put his hand into the quilt again, wanting to see if his hand was cold.
But as soon as she touched his hand, someone grabbed her wrist.
When the world was spinning, Ruan Xingwan was already lying on the bed.
Zhou Cishen hung above her, holding her wrist with his big hand, staring at her with his dark eyes, and said in a low voice: "Where do you want to touch?"
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She turned her head and could feel the palm of his hand holding hers, which was also cold.
Ruan Xingwan raised his eyes and looked at him: "I made porridge, you can eat some."
Zhou Cishen gently stroked the veins on her wrist with his fingers and said lightly: "No appetite."
"You have to eat even if you don't have an appetite. After eating, take some cold medicine before going to bed, otherwise you will get sick... No, you are already sick now. Take the medicine quickly."
"Isn't it good to be sick?"
Ruan Xingwan was about to speak when he continued: "No one will bother you when you are sick, and you can do what you like."
As he spoke, he let go of her and turned over to sit on the edge of the bed.
The whole person showed a great sense of coldness and alienation.
Ruan Xingwan got out of bed: "It's okay if you don't want to see me, I'll leave now.
Anyway, you never wanted to marry me from the beginning, and you never went home even after you got married. Even when you came home, you treated me coldly. I should have known how much you hate me."
As she said that, she took a deep breath and seemed to be trembling a little: "Don't worry, I promise to go as far as possible so that you can be out of sight and out of mind. There are so many little girls who like you, so do you."
I can happily be with them.
I know, you have been waiting for this day for a long time."
Zhou Cishen: "..."
He turned around and called her: "What are you talking about?
Is that what I mean?”
Ruan Xingwan said confidently: "Isn't it true? I asked you not to take medicine when you were sick, and you even drove me away. Aren't you just repaying this idea?"
Zhou Cishen was silent for a while. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he stood up and sat in front of the sofa. He picked up the porridge in front of him and said, "Pretend I didn't say that."
When Ruan Xingwan saw this, the tears that were about to overflow from his eyes were instantly put back.
This trick works quite well.
She is just an ordinary anti-hypocrisy expert.
Treat hypocrisy with hypocrisy.
Seeing that Zhou Cishen had almost finished the porridge, Ruan Xingwan went out to pour water and brought in cold medicine.
Zhou Cishen sat back on the sofa and raised his hand to press his temples.
Ruan Xingwan put water and cold medicine on the coffee table: "Have a headache?"
Zhou Cishen hummed: "A bit."
"After being caught in the rain and taking a cold shower, will it not hurt?"
Despite what she said, she still walked up behind Zhou Cishen and gently rubbed his temples.
No one spoke anymore, and the room became quiet again.
I don't know how long it took, but Ruan Xingwan whispered: "I know everything."
Zhou Cishen's figure stiffened slightly, and his half-drowsed eyes opened.
Ruan Xingwan continued: "I know you are in a bad mood right now, but... that is not your fault, and you don't have to bear any consequences for it."
Zhou Cishen said nothing.
Ruan Xingwan simply finished his words: "Jiang Yuan told me that Zhou Junnian's car accident was not done by someone sent by Mr. Jiang, but..."
"You know, if they hadn't reached out to Nancheng, the Lin family wouldn't have been implicated, and Lin Zhi'an wouldn't have had the chance to plan the explosion."
Ruan Xingwan was startled, and the movements of his hands also stopped.
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "In addition to Zhou Junnian's car accident, your mother fled with you, was forced to marry Ruan Jun, and even Ruan Jun sold you into the dusk, it was all because of me."
After a pause, he continued: "Now, do you still think that this is not my fault?"
Ruan Xingwan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say and didn't answer.
Zhou Cishen closed his eyes, stood up and left.
Forget it, people like him deserve nothing.
Whether it's family, friendship, or love.
For him, it was too much to hope for.
It would be better if she knew it earlier or saw it clearly. At least she would have a chance to make a new choice.
Ji Huai met Cheng Wei, or Team Leader Han who wanted to help him raise his son.
Either way.
As long as it's not him.
What qualifications does he have?
He is just an illegitimate child who has been plotted and exploited from beginning to end.
"Stand there!"
As soon as Zhou Cishen walked to the door, Ruan Xingwan's voice came. She said: "What are you talking about? Why is it so difficult for you to take medicine? You are making a lot of excuses. Are you a child?"
, and you want me to coax you to eat."
Zhou Cishen: "..."
He turned his head to look at her, his jaw slightly tensed and his thin lips pursed.
Ruan Xingwan walked to the sofa and sat down to take out the cold medicine: "Hurry up, the water is getting cold."
Zhou Cishen stood there for a few seconds and walked over with long legs.
Ruan Xingwan placed the opened capsule in his palm and shook his hand again.
Probably because of the bowl of porridge just now, he finally felt a little warmer now.
Ruan Xingwan went to get water again and handed it to him: "Why are you looking at me? Eat."
Zhou Cishen looked away, threw the medicine in his mouth, and raised his head to drink water.
Ruan Xingwan packed up the trash and stood up with the tray: "Okay, you can go to bed."
Zhou Cishen held her but said nothing.
Ruan Xingwan said amusedly: "Do you want to drive me away, or do you not want me to leave?
I'm going to wash the dishes."
"Did you understand what I just said?"
"Understand, I'm not a fool."
Ruan Xingwan said, "But I think there's something wrong with your idea. Well, who has anything to do with Zhou Junnian's car accident? I'm not a party involved, so I can't make a judgment.
But why was it that you were wrong about the Lin family?"
"I……"
Ruan Xingwan interrupted him: "Without you, would Lin Zhi'an give up the idea of fighting for the Lin family?
Even without that explosion, according to his ambition and power..."
She paused for a few seconds and then said, "If you trust him, he will take over the Lin family sooner or later.
What does any of this have to do with you?
Without you, Lin Zhi'an would still be able to do all this, but without Lin Zhi'an, nothing would happen.
I don't understand why you insist on taking the blame for him."
