With that, Zhong Shenghao turned around and left the ward without looking back.
“Zhong Shenghao!” Jing Xinlei was so angry that she shouted at him.
So, he despised her that much? If that was the case, why did he defend her in front of Shi Yuting and plead on her behalf?
“She’s so nice that even you are tempted, right?”
Once the words left her mouth, Zhong Shenghao, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned to look at the person on the bed. A deep pain flashed across his eyes.
A few seconds later, he spoke each word with disappointment, “A woman like her is indeed worthy of every man’s heart. But I, Zhong Shenghao, am extremely stupid. I had to fall in love with a woman who only knows how to be jealous of others!”
With that, he turned and walked away!
His words shocked Jing Xinlei as she remained transfixed on the bed.
If he despised her for being jealous of others, why did he say he fell in love with such a woman? What the hell did he mean?

Moments later, Shenghao arrived at the Zuo Weiyi’s ward.
As soon as he entered, he saw Zuo Yi, Shi Le and the others as well.
Zhong Shenghao was surprised, and based on how they behaved, he knew that there had not been much progress with Shi Yuting’s whereabouts.
“Shenghao.” Weiyi called out to him from her bed.
Zhong Shenghao heard her call him and walked to her.
“I was wondering if I could be discharged in two days.”
“There shouldn’t be any problem. The wound is recovering well, and the blood pressure has also returned to normal. You can go through the discharge procedures the day after tomorrow.”
“Then, what about the babies? Can they be discharged too?”
“Not yet. I’ll have to keep observing them on the day you’re discharged.”
Zuo Weiyi couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
So she can be discharged but her babies had to remain?
Seeing the worry and disappointment on her face, Zhong Shenghao quickly said, “Don’t worry. If the babies are in good health, they can be discharged with you.”
Zuo Weiyi finally felt at ease as she smiled and nodded. “Okay.”
In the afternoon.
Zuo Yi suddenly said to his granddaughter before he left, “Weiyi, Grandpa is going to C Country for a few days, so I might not be accompany you out of the hospital.”
Zuo Weiyi was a little surprised when she heard that. “You’re going to C Country?”
“Yes, there’s something urgent over there. After all, that kid, Yuting, isn’t able to come back for the time being, right? There’s something urgent so I have to rush over to take care of it.”
Upon hearing her grandfather’s words, Zuo Weiyi instantly understood.
“Alright, be careful then.” Although he was still strong and healthy, she was still a little worried because he was getting old.
And Zuo Yi was equally as worried about his granddaughter too.
After searching for so many days, there was still no news about Shi Yuting’s status. He was most worried about her finding out about the situation once she gets discharged from the hospital. He could only rely on the Shi family to continue hiding the matter.
But the truth would have to come out eventually. No matter how hard they tried to hide it, the more they prolonged it, the more suspicious Weiyi would be.
Zuo Weiyi’s wound had been healing very quickly and she was gradually getting enough sleep.
Shen Lanzhi stayed behind to keep watch over her at night.
In the middle of the night, Zuo Weiyi was suddenly awaken by a nightmare. She sat up from the bed in terror!
Her sudden movements caused a sharp pain in her abdomen.
Her heart was beating fast as she remembered her dream: Shi Yuting all bloodied from getting hit by rocks falling off a mountain.
