Chapter Seventy-Three: Companionship

Chen Mu looked at Jax, and his eyes revealed tenderness that Jax had never seen before. Then Chen Mu said slowly: "I love the time I spend working here, but in my country, there are people I love more." ”

"Oh oh......" Jax was shocked, looked at Chen Mu incredulously, raised his voice and asked him, "You said you have someone you love?" "It's like hearing a fantasy.

Over the years, Chen Mu has been focusing on his work and has little interest in the opposite sex. Even Jax saw a sexy woman confessing to Chen Mu several times, but Chen Mu rejected it. After that, women of different styles pursued Chen Mu, but Chen Mu did not agree.

Jax and other colleagues in the firm thought that Chen Mu might not like women, but he liked men. I've been suspicious of his sexuality, and I've almost taken it for granted.

Now that Chen Mu said that there is someone he loves, Jax's first reaction was what kind of man he was, who could actually make Chen Mu abandon his high-paying job here and return to China desperately.

"Can I see a picture of him? I'm so curious. Jax couldn't calm the excitement in his heart.

Chen Mu did not refuse: "Of course you can." He took out his mobile phone again and flipped out a photo of him and Ji Ning at school before going abroad. This is the only photo he has, and if he thinks about Ji Ning over the years, he will look at the photo to alleviate the pain of lovesickness.

"It's this girl, she's beautiful, she's the smartest woman I've ever seen." When Ji Ning was mentioned, the corners of Chen Mu's mouth hooked a proud smile, as if the person who was showing off to others was his wife.

Jax glanced at it and saw Ji Ning with a ponytail. He was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out his glasses and put them on. What he saw was actually a woman, could it be that he was hallucinating? How can it be a woman?

However, after hearing Chen Mu's introduction, he confirmed that he was not mistaken. His surprised expression was even more obvious: "You actually like women?" It seems that liking men is Chen Mu's normal orientation.

It took Chen Mu a long time to react to the meaning of Jax's words, he punched Jax in the shoulder, and said angrily: "Don't you like women? "It's really inexplicable, he took his phone back and didn't show it to Jax.

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that!" Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Jax quickly changed his words, looked at Chen Mu apologetically, and explained: "I thought that no girl could attract your attention, after all, you are so pure-hearted." This is an idiom he just learned, and he actually used it in the right place.

Seeing that Chen Mu was silent, Jax hurriedly said: "But this girl is indeed very beautiful, I finally understand why you rejected those people." "There is already a stunner in his heart, and then others will no longer be able to enter his eyes. If it were him, he would do the same, it's human nature.

Hearing Jax praise Ji Ning, Chen Mu's expression eased a lot, and said, "It's pretty much the same." ”

"So you're going back and marry this girl?" Jax asked gossipily, he knew that the reason why many people returned to China was this, to go back to marry a dear girl, and then grow old with each other in their homeland.

Chen Mu, who was in a good mood just now, dimmed his mood again after hearing this, and said with a wry smile: "No, she is already married." If he knew that Ji Ning would get married so soon, he would definitely return to China early, which is what he regrets the most.

Jax realized that he had mentioned Chen Mu's sadness, and quickly shut up. I was afraid that I would say too many mistakes, so I casually found an excuse and left. Only Chen Mu was left standing alone and thinking about things for a long time.

……

Although Jiang Xuemei has to do a minor operation, her body will be weaker after the operation. Ji Ning was afraid that the people in the hospital would not take good care of her, so she took a day off to accompany Jiang Xuemei in the hospital.

She originally wanted Ye Shaochen to come with her, after all, after the two officially established their relationship, Ye Shaochen had not come to see Jiang Xuemei. But early in the morning, Ye Shaochen said that he was not free and had no way to accompany Ji Ning.

"Next time, next time I will pick a better time, I will officially go over, and it can be regarded as seeing my parents." This is what Ye Shaochen said to Ji Ning, and after speaking, he kissed Ji Ning's face, and his movements were very gentle, Ji Ning suddenly fell into Ye Shaochen's tender offensive, and agreed without thinking about it.

She also felt that what Ye Shaochen said made sense, since she was going to go, she had to pick a better time and prepare well, otherwise it would be too hasty. Moreover, Jiang Xuemei has no strength after the operation, even if Ye Shaochen comes, she may not have the heart to deal with Ye Shaochen, but will waste time.

Ji Ning asked Ye Shaochen to be busy with his own affairs, and then came over alone.

Ji Ning also called Ji Meng, hoping that she could come over. But Ji Meng directly said that there were activities at school, and there were classmates celebrating birthdays in the evening, so he didn't have time at all, so he wouldn't come.

Although Ji Ning was a little pimple in her heart, she never wanted any more problems in the relationship between the two sisters, so she didn't say anything, just let Ji Meng have fun.

But Ji Meng was cheeky and asked Ji Ning for money: "Sister, my classmate's birthday party was held in a very high-end hotel, and the gifts given by my classmates are quite expensive, and I also want to buy some expensive gifts." ”

Ji Ning couldn't help frowning, and said, "The courtesy is light and affectionate, as long as you have a heart, no matter what gift your classmates will like." And, what is the use of a gift measured in money? She said these words more seriously, just hoping that Ji Meng could have a snack.

But Ji Meng was angry: "My classmate invited me to eat at such a high-end hotel, I don't need to give money, what's wrong with me buying expensive gifts for her?" You don't want to think about it, have you taken me to such a nice place? She accused Ji Ning, as an older sister, of never taking care of her thoughts.

If he hadn't gone to college and met these classmates, Ji Meng would still feel that he was still a frog at the bottom of a well. So she complained to Ji Ning: "You don't have time to accompany me, don't you allow my classmates to accompany me?" At this point, why can't I buy expensive gifts for him? Ji Meng's voice was very sharp.

The sharp voice was like a thin needle, piercing into Ji Ning's brain, and she was so painful that she couldn't speak for a long time. Her breathing became rapid, and she clenched her phone tightly, her nails almost digging into her flesh.

It took several deep breaths to calm the anger in his heart. She let out a long breath of turbidity, looked at the snow-white walls of the hospital, and said in an emotionless tone, "Okay, how much do you want." Again, she compromised.

Ji Meng's tone became better at this time, and after quoting an amount, she shouted sweetly: "Thank you, sister, you are the best, I love you." Then without waiting for Ji Ning to speak, she hung up the phone straightforwardly.

There was a beeping sound on the phone, Ji Ning's open mouth had not closed back, and the pronunciation in his throat had been choked there, trying to make a sound, but he found that he had no strength at all.

After a while, Ji Ning closed her mouth, and the corners of her eyes were full of loneliness. Click on the chat box with Ji Meng, find the transfer icon, and transfer a sum of money to Ji Meng.

Ji Ning felt that her heart was in a panic, and somehow remembered what Ye Shaochen had told her before. He asked her, do you want to continue to indulge Ji Meng like she is now? Didn't you think about letting Ji Meng learn to be independent?

She has thought about such a question many times, and every time she thinks about it, she is also very entangled in her heart.

But she only has one sister, if she doesn't care, wouldn't Ji Meng become a helpless child?

"Wait until she graduates, and let her be independent after graduation." Ji Ning whispered to herself and set a deadline for herself. When Ji Meng has an income after graduation, she doesn't have to worry about Ji Meng.

I don't know how long it took, Ji Ning cheered a little, until the nurse came over and called her: "Ji Ning, you can come over." She came back to her senses, quickly got up from the chair, and hurriedly walked to the ward where Jiang Xuemei lived.

Jiang Xuemei was already sitting in a wheelchair, Ji Ning went over, called her, and then pushed the wheelchair in the direction of the operating room. Entering the operating room, Ji Ning waited outside alone.

The waiting time is the most exhausting, especially sitting outside the operating room, because I don't know what's going on inside, so every minute is worrying. But you can't have magic, so you can only wait minute by minute.

Mo Ya came for a review today, and saw Ji Ning in the corridor outside the operating room. Seeing her sitting there quietly was very distressing, Mo Ya subconsciously walked over and shouted, "Ji Ning? ”

Then he sat next to Ji Ning and asked her with concern, "Why are you here?" After saying this, the corner of her eye saw the operating room lit up, and immediately understood something: "Inside are your relatives?" She asked cautiously, her tone as gentle as possible so as not to stimulate Ji Ning's emotions.

"Well, my mother is having surgery." Ji Ning's voice was very hoarse, and her speech was also weak, so she had to listen very carefully to hear what she was saying clearly.

Mo Ya made a move, not knowing how to comfort Ji Ning, so she covered Ji Ning's hand and said, "Are you alone?" I'm here with you. ”

Ji Ning originally wanted to say no, but she didn't have anyone by her side now, and she really needed someone to accompany her. The rejection that came to her lips was choked back by her, and she replied softly: "Hmm." Then the volume was much louder than just now, and she said two words to Mo Ya: "Thank you." ”

I don't know why, I feel very sad inexplicably. Unexpectedly, the last person who was by her side was not her own sister, nor her most important person, nor her friends. On the contrary, he is a person who has no intersection, and is not even a friend.
