After finishing the call with Mu Chen, Ouyang Hao thought carefully. Mu Chen’s words made some sense. Lin Yixun couldn’t disappear from his world for no reason. She must have left him for a reason, and his family was probably involved in this matter.
He looked up at the man in uniform in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Brother, did you look for Lin Yixun?"
The man’s eyes slightly darkened, without looking at him, his thin lips parted lightly, "This is not something you should be concerned about."
"Yixun is my girlfriend, how could it not concern me?" From Ouyang Che’s reaction, Ouyang Hao could almost ascertain that he had indeed looked for Lin Yixun. He anxiously asked, "Brother, you did look for Yixun, right? What did you do to her?"
The man raised his eyelids and gave him a faint glance, "Nothing much, just made a deal with her."
"A million dollars, to leave you." The man spoke flatly, then added, "In the end, she took the check. So, Hao, a woman like her is not worthy of you."
"No, I don’t believe it! Yixun is not that kind of person, she wouldn’t leave me for a million dollars!"
"Why wouldn’t she? How long have you known Lin Yixun? Do you think you really know her? No matter how noble a woman is, she will bow to money; the difference is only the amount on the check.
"Brother, I understand her; she wouldn’t do that!"
"Maybe." The man paused, then continued, "Maybe her leaving you isn’t entirely for this reason. Do you know where she was during the time you were injured?"
"Where was she?" This was also the answer Ouyang Hao had been seeking.
"She was with her ex-husband."
The man’s casual words hit Ouyang Hao’s heart like a heavy hammer.
"No, impossible!" Ouyang Hao absolutely couldn’t believe it. How could Lin Yixun be with Leng Yixiu? How could she be with Leng Yixiu?
"You will believe it in time." Ouyang Che stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked down at Ouyang Hao on the bed, saying in a deep voice, "Hao, that woman isn’t worth your affection, forget her."
At this moment, Mrs. Ou came in with a plate of fruit, and seeing the strange atmosphere in the ward, she couldn’t help but ask, "What are you two brothers talking about?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ⓝovelFire.net
"Nothing." Ouyang Hao turned his face to the side. His mother was clearly on Ouyang Che’s side, and he didn’t want her to get involved again.
"Mom, I have something to do, I’m leaving now."
"Stay for dinner at least."
"No, I have an eight o’clock flight tonight."
After Ouyang Che left, Mrs. Ou handed the fruit plate to Ouyang Hao, "Have some fruit to supplement vitamins and recover quickly."
"I don’t want to eat."
He had no appetite at all; his mind was occupied by what Ouyang Che had just said. Although he didn’t believe Lin Yixun would be with Leng Yixiu, there was a voice in his heart telling him that it wasn’t impossible.
"How can you not eat? Then have some bone broth, I had the maid specially make it for you."
Seeing this, Mrs. Ou’s patience gradually wore thin, "Hao, are you still thinking about that woman?"
Ouyang Hao frowned impatiently. With Ouyang Che just gone, now his Empress Dowager mother took her turn; they truly didn’t let him have any peace. He didn’t want to argue, just wanted to end it quickly.
So, he said weakly, closing his eyes, "Mom, you’re overthinking. I’m just tired, I want to rest."
Seeing this, Mrs. Ou couldn’t say anything more. She put down the fruit knife and turned to leave the ward. Just after she stepped out, the young nurse responsible for his care came in and, taking advantage of no one looking, handed him a brand new phone box.
"Mr. Ouyang, the phone you asked me to buy for you."
