Chapter 86: Chapter 86: My Heart Can’t Take It Anymore (Extra Chapter Added)
To tell a lie, you need countless others to keep it afloat.
Last time, after she spun a tale about Jing Hang suffering from a terminal illness in front of Gu Siting, she had Jing Hang arrange the hospital stay, fearing that if Gu Siting decided to verify the story, their ruse would be exposed.
Jing Hang clicked his tongue and grumbled, “Sister, I’m so full of regret. I should never have claimed to be your boyfriend in front of your husband that night.”
“Enough, just hurry to the hospital!”
Ming Yao also quickly made her way to Hetian Hospital.
Gu Siting and Mu Chengjin arrived at the hospital first, and after Mu Chengjin inquired about Jing Hang’s room, they purchased a fruit basket and headed there together.
Upon reaching the room, Mu Chengjin, seeing the door open, knocked and took a peek inside.
The bed was neatly made, without a single wrinkle, looking nothing like it had been slept in.
“Could we have the wrong room?” Mu Chengjin said with a hint of puzzlement in his eyes.
At that moment, a nurse passed by in the corridor.
“Hello, may I ask if the patient in this room’s surname is Jing?”
The nurse frowned, “No one has stayed in this room, and I haven’t heard of any patient with the surname Jing…”
Before the nurse could finish, the head nurse suddenly came running over.
“You’re here to visit Jing Hang, right? He and his girlfriend stepped out, they should be taking a walk downstairs.”
Mu Chengjin glanced back at the previously mentioned nurse, “But she said no one’s staying here, and that there’s no patient with the surname Jing?”
“She’s new and still not very familiar with the patients on this floor,” the head nurse excused.
Mu Chengjin nodded, “Alright then, we’ll wait for them in the room.”
Mu Chengjin wheeled himself into the room, and before Gu Siting entered, he cast a look at the head nurse.
The head nurse felt a tingling on her scalp under the intense scrutiny of Gu Siting’s deep, piercing eyes.
“Are you certain someone’s staying in this room?”
The head nurse replied with a strained smile, “Positive.”
Gu Siting didn’t say anything more and entered the room.
The head nurse heaved a long sigh of relief, took out her phone, and called Jing Hang.
Jing Hang had already arrived downstairs.
Ming Yao had also arrived, and they bumped into each other.
Jing Hang found a place to change into a patient’s attire and put on a hat.
He had spent the last couple of days in the gambling den with hardly any rest, his eyes bloodshot, and his lower jaw sporting a faint stubble, actually looking a bit under the weather.
“Sister, next time can you ask your husband not to spring these sudden visits on me? My heart can’t take this!”
Ming Yao leaned in close to Jing Hang, sniffing him.
“You smell like women’s perfume.” She took out a bottle and sprayed him with it.
“What the hell is this?”
“Disinfectant from the hospital.”
“Next time your husband wants to visit me in the hospital, just tell him I’ve died from the illness!”
Ming Yao kicked Jing Hang lightly, “Enough chit-chat, don’t blow your cover when we get to the room.”
“Got it.”
Ming Yao supported Jing Hang to the room.
Seeing Mu Chengjin by Gu Siting’s side, Jing Hang whispered, “Another handsome guy comes along, sister, you’re really moving up in the world!”
“Cut the nonsense.”
Clearing his throat, Jing Hang straightened up, “Hello, I’m Gu Fuzhen’s boyfriend.”
Mu Chengjin looked at Jing Hang, seeing his radiant, handsome features, a shadow flickered in his eyes, but he felt happy for Gu Fuzhen.
“Nice to meet you, I’m Mu Chengjin. You have a great girlfriend. I was on the brink of death a few days ago, and thanks to her, I survived.”
“Don’t mention it. My Zhenzhen is just that kind-hearted and always ready to help others. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have earned Mr. Gu’s appreciation, who gave her double the salary.”
Gu Siting’s eyes narrowed as he glanced at Jing Hang, and with that look, he suddenly noticed a faint red mark on his neck.
That was unmistakably—
