Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Dust Has Settled

After discussing with Pei Shaobei, I decided to go to the hospital to see Zhang Jiajia. Pei Shaobei said, whether she prosecutes or not, I have an unshirkable responsibility. Since there is a mistake, it should be borne by it. Running away is always something the weak will do.

Sometimes I feel that Pei Shaobei's heart is simply an indestructible shield, I really want to see what can make him mess up, become uncalm and irrational.

I bought fruits and some nutritional products, and Pei Shaobei helped me find them out in the hospital. Originally, he was going to accompany me, but then I felt that if he showed up, it might backfire and complicate things that could have been resolved peacefully.

When Pei Shaobei was leaving, he told me not to make physical contact, and to leave immediately if there was a conflict. Naturally, I understood what he meant, and nodded in agreement.

Zhang Jiajia's ward is in the innermost room on the second floor, an ordinary ward. When I went in, I unexpectedly saw Lin Dong, which made me want to run away for a moment, but then I felt that it was too embarrassing, so I had to knock on the door and walk in.

In addition to Zhang Jiajia's bed, there is also an old couple, so the ward is relatively quiet, and even the TV is not turned on. When Zhang Jiajia saw me, her expression suddenly became excited. This made Lin Dong quickly turn his head and see me.

"Gu Wan?" Lin Dong was a little surprised, he turned his gaze back to Zhang Jiajia's face, and he didn't know what to say in a low voice, Zhang Jiajia's expression changed, but he didn't scream to embarrass me.

Only then did Lin Dong stand up and greet me with a gentle smile, "Gu Wan, why are you here?"

I really admire Lin Dong's cheekiness, he was so stiff with me just now, but when he met again, he looked very intimate. I felt a chill in my heart, but my face remained calm, and I turned sideways to avoid his hand and put the fruit and gift box on the table next to Zhang Jiajia's bedside.

I found a stool and sat down, looked directly at Zhang Jiajia and asked, "How is it, is it better?"

"Hmph, you're here to see my jokes? Gu Wan, congratulations, you see, my child is gone, I have nothing. You shouldn't be like that, you should laugh a few times and say a bunch of snarky words to get back all the damage I inflicted on you!

Zhang Jiajia's face is very bad, and his face without makeup is more beautiful than his usual heavy makeup.

"I've come to see you, sincerely. No matter what you think, as a woman, I don't want anything to happen to your child. It doesn't matter how much you tear up the fight between adults, but the child is innocent, I'm sorry!" I sighed, trying to keep my tone as smooth as possible.

"Hmph, excuse me?" Zhang Jiajia couldn't help but chuckle lowly, tears of laughter flowing all over his face. "You say from above as a winner, sorry. Gu Wan, don't cry and fake mercy, even if I Zhang Jiajia dies in the hospital, I don't want your pity!"

"Jiajia, Gu Wan is not that kind of person!" Lin Dong suddenly interjected and reached out to help Zhang Jiajia tuck the quilt.

I think it's really dazzling, Zhang Jiajia and I have both suffered harm because of him, although Zhang Jiajia's purpose was not pure when he was with him, but after all, a woman became a divorced woman because he was worthy of marriage. This alone was enough to make Lin Dong feel guilty, but what could be more ironic than the fact that he was standing there and comforting the two of us like an outsider.

"Lin Dong, you are really shameless!" I glanced at Lin Dong coldly, took out a thousand yuan from my bag and handed it to Zhang Jiajia, "I know you don't like this money, but I have stopped working, and my income is not much." You take it, buy some supplements, and I'll apologize for that kid!"

Zhang Jiajia's face turned red, so he naturally refused to answer. I didn't force it, just stuffed the money under the quilt and got up to say goodbye.

Lin Dong grabbed Zhang Jiajia, who was about to run away, and reached out to stop me. I took two straight steps and quickly walked out of the door of the ward. I wasn't surprised that Lin Dong would chase after me, so I didn't go far at all and stopped a few steps away from the nurse's station.

"Wanwan, you wait a minute!" Sure enough, before a minute came, Lin Dong's voice came urgently.

I leaned against the wall and looked back at him, and he seemed excited that I was going to wait for him, and his face was full of smiles, and my heart was furrowed and my eyebrows were furrowed.

"If you have something, I came this time purely to see Zhang Jiajia, if I knew that you were here, I would never have appeared!"

I took the lead in taking a stand, lest he come up with a bunch of inexplicable words of his own making.

Lin Dong scratched his head, and his rolled up sleeves revealed a bandaged wound. The unhappiness of the night came again, and I turned my head sideways, not wanting to look at him again.

"Wanwan, I know you came to see Zhang Jiajia, I didn't misunderstand you! Last time, last time I was wrong, I was stimulated, and I was nagged by my mother again, and I was not happy, so I went to look for you. I'm sorry, Pei Shaobei, he didn't misunderstand!"

I knew what he cared about, and he was disgusted in his heart, but his face was still calm, "No, he won't sue you." But don't be entangled anymore, if you really go to court again, the result may not be as simple as the divorce in the first place. I don't think you or I want to see that end, not even your mother!"

Lin Dong nodded again and again, and his attitude was very humble. I thought he was really shocked by Pei Shaobei's so-called surveillance video, so I didn't ask.

"It's okay, I'm leaving, since you came to take care of Zhang Jiajia, do you still have feelings for her. If there is, forget it, none of this is my business, I'm leaving!" I sighed and turned around to leave, but Lin Dong grabbed my arm at once.

I subconsciously shook it off, looked back at the nurses in the nurse station, and shouted in a low voice, "If you dare to mess around, I promise that Pei Shaobei will not let you go!"

Lin Dong hurriedly explained, "No, no, I don't mean to do anything, I just want to ask, why did Zhang Jiajia's child fall off! She said that you pushed her, and I was worried that she would be unfavorable to you, so I wanted to ask from you!"

It was not unexpected that Zhang Jiajia would frame me, I briefly described the situation that day, thought about it and asked, "Didn't that man come?"

Lin Dong frowned and shook his head, "No, but it seems that he paid for the medical expenses!" I asked Zhang Jiajia, and I should have been compensated. It seems that they have broken up completely. She was also pitiful, thinking that she could trap a man with a child, but she didn't get anything!"

Lin Dong glanced at my stomach intentionally or unintentionally as he spoke, and I leaned sideways to avoid his malicious gaze. I know that he is using Zhang Jiajia's matter to warn me not to pounce on Pei Shaobei.

"I'm not Zhang Jiajia, and Pei Shaobei is not that kind of man! No matter how far our affairs can go in the end, it has nothing to do with you! Lin Dong, I will talk to the end today, without anger, without entanglement, and without caring about Pei Shaobei. You remember, between me and you, there will never be anything back. Even if I still have some unbearable feelings for you, it is because of the relationship I have had for so many years, I am different from you, I will not be ruthless all at once, but I have principles and bottom lines. You should understand this, so don't force me, don't force me to do things absolutely! Lin Dong, I never want to be a mortal enemy with you!"

Lin Dong seemed to have rushed out, and his eyes were a little red. Between me and him, not only marriage, but also the purest and most beautiful love in my youth, I can't and can't erase these memories. I also believe that the reason why Lin Dong is entangled with me again is also because of a nostalgia after experiencing work, marriage, and physical setbacks, of course, it may be more of an unwillingness, but behind this unwillingness, this nostalgia should account for most of it.

"Gu Wan, I'm sorry, I didn't keep my original promise and take good care of you! Yes, Pei Shaobei is not that kind of person, I may never have a chance again! I'm just, it's really uncomfortable!" Lin Dong slowly lowered his head, the grief on his face should not be pretended.

I didn't say anything more, turned to leave, and after taking a few steps, I heard Lin Dong shouting in a low voice behind me, "Gu Wan!"

I didn't look back, but my heart was uncomfortable. I took a deep breath and walked quickly out of the hospital door, standing in the sunlight, tilting my head back and pushing back all the tears in my eyes.

Stifled and suppressed all the uneasiness that should not be generated, I faced the cold wind, walked alone on the street, didn't want to take a ride, and didn't want to call Pei Shaobei, just walked and walked alone, venting all the gloom in my heart under my feet and dissipating them one by one.

I longed for a new life, no matter what the future this new life brought me, I didn't want to indulge in the mire of the old days, struggling and wandering, thinking of a fighting beast trapped in the dark forever, feeling that I had tried my best to fight, but in fact I was trapped in it, refusing to come out, but blaming all the faults on the difficulties in the outside world.

Pei Shaobei is right, if my heart can really harden, maybe things won't develop to this point.

I smiled at the winter sun, at the withered branches of the streets, at the occasional passer-by, and my heart began to spring up with longing, longing for the future, longing for happiness.

In the familiar bookstore, I wandered through the scent of ink, my fingers slid over the old books, like some fragments of memory, stored on the rows of shelves, swallowed up by dust, and finally when the new books had nowhere to be placed, they were removed to the storeroom and pressed into cardboard boxes, and if you didn't rummage, you couldn't remember which box that memory was stored in.

So good!

I picked out the basic extracurricular books, the latest, with the freshly printed ink, and next week, I'm going back to school. The head of the department's phone call turned this possibility into reality, and the anxiety finally settled into dust.
