"Mm." Over the phone, Mochen’s voice was always somewhat low, "Can you come out now?"
Qiangwei was startled, "Now?"
"Yes, and, I hope you won’t let Sijue know."
Qiangwei was startled again, turning her head to look at that handsome face under the dim light.
"I have something to discuss with you, don’t worry, it won’t take long."
Qiangwei hesitated, after all, it was late at night, "Can’t it wait until tomorrow? Does it have to be right now?"
After a long hesitation, eventually, Qiangwei couldn’t find a reason to refuse and could only agree to Mochen, "Alright, where are you now?"
"..." Qiangwei was startled, her sleepiness instantly vanished, and she eagerly asked, "What’s wrong with you!?"
"It’s nothing, just a minor injury, don’t worry."
"Alright, which hospital are you at? I’ll come right now."
Afterward, Mochen gave her the address, and she discovered it was the same hospital that Li Yuan was in.
After hanging up the phone, Qiangwei planned to get out of bed quietly without alarming Sijue, but just as she got out of bed, she heard a faint noise from behind her.
Her brows slightly furrowed as she turned her head and saw Sijue sitting up.
Her dark starry eyes blinked a couple of times.
Sijue watched her and counter-asked without speaking, "What does Mochen want from you?"
Qiangwei was taken aback, her lips pressed tightly.
Did he hear everything?
Though Mochen had asked her not to tell Sijue, he had heard everything, so it didn’t count as her telling him, right?
Looking at the man in front of her, Qiangwei hesitated for a few seconds, "He needed me for something."
"..." Qiangwei couldn’t help but give him a glance, "You’re the one having an affair!"
"Mm, just had an affair with you not long ago."
"..." Forget it, she couldn’t argue with him!
After giving him a glance, she got up and walked to the closet, changing into a set of clothes for going out.
"You’re really going out this late?"
Qiangwei was grabbing her things while answering, "Mm, Brother Mochen seems to have gotten injured and is hospitalized, I’m going to see him."
"What are you to him? Does he need you to visit him when he’s injured?" His tone was thick with jealousy.
Qiangwei could obviously tell.
But Mochen had been the person who looked after her the most during her university days and after graduation had helped her a lot. Now that he was injured and hospitalized, going to see him wasn’t too much, was it?
It was extremely cold outside late at night. Qiangwei took a scarf, then prepared to leave, completely ignoring Sijue sitting on the bed brooding.
Qiangwei turned her head, looking at the man on the bed, "What?"
"I’m coming with you!"
Saying this, he got out of bed and started changing clothes.
Qiangwei didn’t refuse. It was late, and having him accompany her felt safer.
After sitting on the couch for about five minutes, waiting for him to change, the two left Jueyuan together.
By the time they arrived at Jingcheng Central Hospital, it was already past one in the morning.
The floor Mochen mentioned was exactly on the fifth floor.
And Nangong Xi was on the third floor.
They took the elevator to the fifth floor. Just as they stepped out, Qiangwei suddenly stopped, pausing.
Then, she turned her head toward the man beside her, "Wait here for me."
She pointed to a rest chair in the hospital corridor.
Sijue looked at her with a hint of displeasure, his eyes clearly showing how sour and reluctant he felt.
But Qiangwei had already promised Mochen not to tell Sijue, yet Sijue had heard everything, so this was unavoidable.
