Chapter 2167: The Secret in Her Heart Known to Him

~7 min read 1,299 words

Jiang Mobai held onto the chair and slowly sat down.

His leg injury had recovered quite a bit.

But carrying Su Kexuan around was still too much for him.

Now the old injury was throbbing with a dull pain.

Fortunately, Su Kexuan's test results were fine.

All her indicators were perfectly normal.

This finally allowed the heart Jiang Mobai had been holding in his throat to settle.

But he was very confused.

Jiang Mobai sought out the doctor and asked the question in his heart: "Since she is fine, why did she faint!?"

"Everyone's physical condition is different; Miss Su's pain during her menstrual period is more severe. I suspect she is in the habit of taking painkillers, but she didn't take one in time today, which is why her body couldn't hold up."

"But she has a very good physique and is quite skilled in martial arts; even she can't handle that... menstrual pain?"

The doctor laughed and said, "Those two things are unrelated."

"Hey, then how can it be relieved?"

Jiang Mobai sighed anxiously.

The doctor did not answer directly, but instead smiled: "Young man, you care a lot about your girlfriend."

Girlfriend...

Jiang Mobai pursed his lips and did not deny it.

He knew that doing this was a bit shameless.

But he... wanted to secretly pretend to be Su Kexuan's boyfriend.

Jiang Mobai lowered his head.

He felt both ashamed and sweet at the same time.

And his reaction made the doctor think he had guessed correctly.

The doctor smiled and continued to explain: "Miss Su's body is well-maintained, but it has been depleted, so her foundation is a bit weaker. In the future, don't make her angry, ensure a balance between work and rest, and don't let her be under too much pressure."

"Wait a moment, what is... depleted?"

The doctor stared at Jiang Mobai, hesitated for a moment, and then asked instead of answering: "Have you two been together for a long time?"

"Back when we were still in school, we... got together."

"Sigh, you two, you're so young and so careless."

Careless?

Could this doctor be referring to...

The matter of them having a physical relationship?

Jiang Mobai's face turned red instantly.

He was very flustered, and his eyes darted around: "This, this can be seen too?"

"Of course. Young man, if you like a girl, you should protect her well."

"Yes, definitely!"

Jiang Mobai said this in a firm tone, then let out a soft sigh.

He would like to protect her, but Su Kexuan... she doesn't need it.

Jiang Mobai felt secretly melancholy.

The doctor, on his side, urged again: "You must pay attention to safety in the future and don't let her have another abortion. When she had the first surgery, she was still young, and it caused great damage to her body."

It took a moment for Jiang Mobai to react and connect the abortion surgery the doctor mentioned to Su Kexuan.

Then, he was struck as if by lightning!!

Jiang Mobai slowly raised his head.

His lips moved several times before he made a sound: "You aren't mistaken, she... really had an abortion surgery?"

As soon as the doctor saw Jiang Mobai's state, he realized something was wrong.

At that moment, he had no intention of responding to this question again.

But Jiang Mobai was anxious: "Doctor, please answer me!"

"I apologize, I spoke too much. Is there anything else you would like to know about the patient's other conditions?"

The doctor had made up his mind not to say anything more.

Jiang Mobai clenched his palms tightly.

He did not make things difficult for the doctor.

He changed the subject and asked about something else: "Is it because Su Kexuan had an abortion surgery that she is suffering so much now?"

"That is part of the reason."

"Does she need to be nourished?"

"That isn't necessary; just care for her more and don't put too much pressure on her."

"I understand, thank you."

Jiang Mobai stood up in a daze.

When he first stood up, his body swayed slightly.

The doctor pretended to be busy, but in reality, his peripheral vision kept glancing at Jiang Mobai.

After Jiang Mobai walked out, the doctor sighed softly:

He hoped he wouldn't receive a complaint.

Jiang Mobai had no heart for complaints.

He stood in the corridor, his expression dazed.

His mind seemed to be shrouded in a layer of white mist.

When the white mist dissipated, Jiang Mobai only wanted to know one question: that child... whose could it be?

Jiang Mobai had a vague answer in his heart.

Yet he also felt it was very absurd.

He could also have someone investigate.

But this time... Jiang Mobai hoped Su Kexuan would say it herself!

Su Kexuan did not yet know that the secret she most wanted to hide had already been discovered by Jiang Mobai.

She lay on the hospital bed, still fast asleep.

However, because of the injected medication, her complexion gradually returned to a rosy hue.

Suddenly, her fingers moved slightly.

Then she lifted her eyelids.

The unfamiliar environment made Su Kexuan immediately alert.

She even looked to the side.

With this look, she unexpectedly saw the silent Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai sat on a chair, his expression inscrutable.

Seeing Su Kexuan looking at him, he explained: "You fainted at the exhibition, and I sent you to the Hospital."

"... Thank you."

As Su Kexuan said this, she prepared to sit up.

Jiang Mobai hurriedly said: "Rest for a while longer; the exhibition side has already been properly handled, don't worry."

Su Kexuan was not worried about the exhibition.

She just... did not want to face Jiang Mobai.

After sitting steadily, she began to shoo him away: "I am already fine, you go back."

"You eat something first; this is the lunch I bought for you, it is very light."

Jiang Mobai deliberately ignored Su Kexuan's dismissal.

He turned around and took a takeout meal out of the bag behind him.

The takeout was still hot, and as soon as the lid was opened, the fragrance wafted over.

Jiang Mobai very considerately passed the chopsticks to Su Kexuan's side.

Su Kexuan did not take them, and she said coldly: "Didn't we agree not to pester each other anymore?"

"... I know, after you finish eating, I will take you home, I promise not to pester you, will that work?"

Jiang Mobai asked cautiously.

His caution made Su Kexuan's heart soften at once.

Forget it, it was just eating a takeout meal anyway.

Besides, she was truly hungry.

Thinking this, Su Kexuan took the chopsticks from Jiang Mobai.

She held the takeout box and ate slowly.

Yet her peripheral vision could feel Jiang Mobai staring fixedly at her.

His gaze had no sense of oppression.

But it was not quite the same as usual.

It seemed that within the calmness, there was a hint of... madness?

Su Kexuan became increasingly uncomfortable.

She quickened the speed of her eating.

In this atmosphere, Jiang Mobai spoke quietly: "Just now while you were asleep, your phone kept ringing; when the screen lit up, I saw the other party's number, which happened to be the person who came to me for investment a few days ago."

Su Kexuan lowered her eyes and said indifferently: "Is that so? That is quite a coincidence."

"Just a coincidence?"

"Otherwise what?"

"The investment, you were the one who helped me contact them, right? And more than once."

Jiang Mobai stated the fact.

And this fact, Su Kexuan could deny.

After all, she and the investor only communicated verbally; even if Jiang Mobai suspected, he had no evidence.

However...

If Su Kexuan denied it, would Jiang Mobai believe her?

No, he would likely continue to pester her.
