Chapter 38

Outside the door, she heard the sound of people running lightly, and vaguely heard people whispering about Vice Dean Zong wanting someone or something.

She remembered that the position printed on the work badge on the chest of the previous Dr. Zong was Vice Dean... Was he wanting someone for Mu Wei?

The question flashed by, and He Lele didn't take it to heart. Just as Ruan Lin said, Mu Wei's situation had nothing to do with her. She had already done what she wanted to do and paid the price. She wouldn't intervene in the rest. Telling Ruan Lin that something happened to Mu Wei just now was just because she happened to hear it and mentioned it in passing.

She didn't know if she could be considered a good person, because she did things... just to be at peace with herself. As for those who hurt her, the most she could do was not hold a grudge; returning evil with kindness... Lingyu said that was God's job.

Her body was in unprecedented pain and soreness, but her spirit was rarely relaxed. The world outside the apartment—so free...

One night without dreams, there seemed to be a little commotion outside the room in the middle of the night, but she only woke up for a few seconds and then fell into a sweet sleep.

Early in the morning, just after the doctors and nurses finished their shift, He Lele requested to be discharged again. The new doctor looked at the medical record, checked it, and told her to pay attention to rest after going back, avoid sexual activity in the short term until there was no abnormality in her body, and did not stop her from being discharged.

Putting on the disinfected jeans and shirt, He Lele looked down at the protruding points on her chest in embarrassment. With a red face, she asked the nurse for a roll of medical tape, cut it into four pieces, and crossed them to tape down her nipples. Fortunately, her shirt wasn't transparent... If she were like a woman disguised as a man in ancient times using bandages, that would be best, but bandages definitely cost money.

Looking left and right in the mirror, not to mention, she was quite talented to come up with this method, haha!

After getting the medicine, He Lele asked how much she still had to pay. Although she didn't bring cash, she still had forty-something yuan on her only bank card, which should be enough to pay for last night's dinner, and then... she knew she had been teased. All expenses in the hospital were deducted from the benefit fund first. If she had known, she would have asked for bandages. But this was also fine; find a bank to withdraw the remaining money, and she would have the fare for the way back.

He Lele walked out carrying the medicine and saw a middle-aged, plump woman talking on the phone.

"Did you find out who did it? What? Wait a minute." Zhai Feiyun looked up and saw He Lele, her eyes lighting up. "He Lele? You're already here? That's perfect, let's go, take me up." Without waiting for He Lele to answer, she continued talking on the phone and walked toward the elevator.

He Lele looked helplessly at Zhai Feiyun walking into the elevator, shook her head, and followed.

She said she wanted He Lele to take her, but Zhai Feiyun walked in front the whole way and finally stopped at the door of room 606.

Several nurses stood at the door looking at each other. One of the older nurses seemed quite familiar with Zhai Feiyun and greeted her with a difficult expression.

"Sister Yun, we really have no way; Mr. Mu is not cooperating at all."

"...Where is Zong kid?"

"The Vice Dean was busy all night and just fell asleep."

"Alright, I'll go in and see first; I'll call you to come in later." Zhai Feiyun looked back at He Lele. "You come in with me."

Could she not...

"Get out!"

As soon as the two entered the room, a water cup flew toward them. The plump Zhai Feiyun seemed prepared and dodged nimbly—bang!

He Lele covered her forehead... really, really, really wanted to cry.

She didn't want to hold a grudge. She didn't want to hold a grudge against anyone or anything, didn't hold a grudge against heaven or fate, she just wanted to rest well for a day... Was this really an excessive luxury?

The aggrieved tears she had forced back countless times finally found a breakthrough to burst the dam at this not-too-painful accident. There was no sad sobbing, no excited choking, as if those calm eyes were two natural spring mouths, and since ancient times, they had been flowing with fine streams silently and slowly.

Pain!

Mu Wei frowned as he looked at the unexpectedly appearing He Lele. The woman who hadn't cried so heartbreakingly even under his cruel ravaging yesterday was now...

He had never known humans had this way of crying—standing there silently, her body without the slightest tremor, even her breathing looking peaceful and even, yet the tears that kept sliding down, the water droplets dripping continuously, were like the foam the mermaid turned into in the fairy tale, looking crystal clear, yet so sad and desperate.

Every time a tear dropped, a lightning-like pain flashed across his chest. Was... the wound split open?

☆, Chapter 46: Beg You to Get Lost

Zhai Feiyun was also taken aback when she saw He Lele's appearance. Having mixed in the entertainment industry for so many years, she had seen all kinds of people, all kinds of expressions, including all kinds of acting, and had long been numb to things like tears. She knew very well that people in the circle called her a cold-blooded fox behind her back, but she didn't think she was cold-blooded; she just clearly knew that there weren't many people in this world worth sympathizing with or helping.

This girl... let's deal with the troublemaker Mu Wei first.

"Nurse Tang, please help this girl apply some medicine."

He Lele put down her hand supporting her forehead, wiped away her tears in passing, and smiled faintly. "General Manager Zhai, don't bother, I'm fine." After speaking, she bowed slightly to Mu Wei on the bed. "Mr. Mu."

It probably wasn't appropriate to say "good morning" now. He Lele looked at Mu Wei, who had casts on his right arm and left leg, and was wrapped in thick gauze on his upper body and head. She had no thoughts of schadenfreude in her heart, and of course, even less sympathy.

For this kind of vicious man who played with others' feelings, being hit and retaliated against was only a matter of time.

"What are you here for!" Seeing her wipe away her tears, Mu Wei felt a sense of relief in his heart, but for no reason, he became even more irritable. Was this woman here to see him make a fool of himself?

"...You brat! Do you think I want to see you! If it weren't for your mother—" Zhai Feiyun thought Mu Wei was talking to her, and her anger immediately soared, but as soon as she mentioned Mu Wei's mother, she immediately closed her mouth.

Mu Wei looked at Zhai Feiyun impatiently. "I want to be discharged."

"Discharged? Where do you want to go in this state? Do you know that if you hadn't run fast, the whole Muse would have been buried with you!"

"What's wrong?" Qin Zhixiu, who had just stepped out of the elevator, still seemed a bit drowsy. His fair, tender little face radiated a "dull and cute" aura, looking just like a beautiful boy who had walked out of an anime.

Zhai Feiyun scanned Mu Wei's injuries angrily. Although she was very annoyed, she couldn't help but curse "deserve it" in her heart.

"You asked for it! I've told you how many times, even if you play with women, pick your targets. I don't have your mother's supernatural powers to wipe your ass clean no matter what!"

"Did you find out who did it?"
