Chapter 123: Where Have You Been?
Looking at the back of Shen Junyu leaving in a hurry, her mother sighed, and looked at each other with her husband, with a trace of helplessness in her eyes......
Shen Junyu, who rushed down as fast as possible, was still a step late, and Tong Xia was not found anywhere. He was worried, and subconsciously took out the phone, only to find that the other party had turned off the phone.
"Doctor Tong? Why are you here, it's not you on duty tonight. As soon as Tong Xia entered the hospital, he was stopped by the little nurse in the same department.
"I forgot to take something." Tong Xia, who didn't expect to be called, had to casually make an excuse, and after greeting the little nurse perfunctorily, he went into his lounge.
Looking at the empty lounge, Tong Xia collapsed on the chair with a limp. After coming out of her parents' house, her brain has always been tense, and now when she is free, her whole head is constantly repeating the conversation between herself and Tong Xin.
If it weren't for the conclusive evidence, she wouldn't have believed that her own sister would do this to herself! The thought of having to be so aggrieved under one roof in the future made her feel tired.
"What's the matter, hiding here alone? Stop saying that you love your job. The usual poisonous tongue pointed out Tong Xia's evasion for a while.
"As soon as you hear this, you don't need to look at people to know that it must be you." In the face of such naked ridicule, Tong Xia has long been accustomed to it.
After getting along for this period of time, she is also familiar with Qiao Yilin's personality, and she is not as angry as before, and she can even pick up two sentences.
"You still have the strength to argue with me, which means it's nothing." Regarding Tong Xia's response, Qiao Yilin didn't feel embarrassed at all, but calmly pointed out Tong Xia's state.
Looking at Qiao Yilin's cold appearance from beginning to end, Tong Xia suddenly let go of the tangled mood before, "Now I won't show anything as directly as before, okay?" β
Although it was okay to quarrel with Qiao Yilin, when he thought of the reason why he came to the hospital, the corners of Tong Xia's slightly raised mouth began to hook in the opposite direction.
It's also funny, now the hospital seems to have become Tong Xia's second home, and as long as there is something, he will always come here to hide.
Qiao Yilin, who had been sitting quietly opposite, saw all Tong Xia's emotions in his eyes, even if he didn't like her appearance of being disturbed by love, but for the sake of her professional ability, Qiao Yilin still spoke.
"I don't know what you're struggling with right now, but I think since this place makes you so uncomfortable, it's better to consider my suggestion, seize the opportunity to study abroad, and serve the gods well in the future."
Qiao Yilin's words were not salty or light, but they were like a drum beating in Tong Xia's heart. Tong Xia also wanted to seize this opportunity, but this departure meant that she had to say goodbye to all the people and things here, and in the end, she was still a little reluctant......
"There's still time, you think about it slowly." Looking at Tong Xia's painful expression, Qiao Yilin knew that he had said everything he had to say, so he didn't stay anymore and went back to his office, after all, his business at night was on duty.
After thinking alone in the lounge, Tong Xia fell into her own world, completely forgetting the outside world, and even her mobile phone was so out of battery that it automatically turned off.
Bang!
After never seeing Tong Xia, Shen Junyu has been trying to get in touch, but all he got over and over again was a prompt that the user had turned off the phone, and Shen Junyu, who was really anxious, finally couldn't help but hammer the steering wheel hard.
At night, the streets are dimly lit, and occasionally a few people come and go, and if you look closely, you will notice that there is a car on the street that has been going back and forth, seemingly aimless, but also looking for something.
"Tong Xia, don't you believe me like that?!"
Shen Junyu, who spent the whole night looking for someone, really couldn't hold back in the end. When the car stopped in front of the law firm, Shen Junyu's face turned black, and the whole person was surrounded by low air pressure.
The people who went to work today could obviously feel that Lawyer Shen's aura was wrong, it was completely different from before, and everyone tried to appear in front of him as little as possible in order to protect themselves.
"Come in. Why are you, didn't you say that you didn't come here for a while? β
finally forced himself to start working, but when Shen Junyu looked up, he saw the person he didn't want to see at the moment. But Tong Xin seems to be very different from before, and the whole person looks very fragile.
"No, I'm fine, I just want to come to work...... I always feel a little unsafe at home alone...... "Last night, because of the showdown with Tong Xia, Tong Xin was worried and scared for a night, and when she got up in the morning, she couldn't believe that the person with a pale face and messy hair in the mirror would be herself.
Shen Junyu was still worried about Tong Xia's disappearance all night, and he didn't notice the difference in Tong Xin at all, and only wanted to send him away quickly.
Tong Xin, who had been secretly paying attention to Shen Junyu's reaction, saw the other party's impatient movements, and the whole person seemed to be poured down with cold water, revealing disbelief, unwillingness and fear.
"If you're busy...... I won't bother. In the end, Tong Xin was the first to give in and took the initiative to leave the office, for fear that Shen Junyu would hate herself even more.
On the contrary, Shen Junyu subconsciously glanced up, but only saw Tong Xin's departing back, looking weak and weak, as if she would fall to the ground at any time.
Thinking of this, Shen Junyu closed his eyes slightly and drove away the messy thoughts. When I opened it again, my eyes were clear and clear, revealing the shrewdness of a lawyer.
"Why are you here?" Just after work, when Tong Xia was still hesitating whether to go home, he suddenly felt a shadow hanging in front of him.
Shen Junyu, who was already holding his breath, heard Tong Xia ask like this, regardless of whether it was surprise or other feelings, it was directly defined as a question, and the air pressure of the whole person was lower.
"I guess I'm asking you, where did you go last night? Why don't you answer the phone? Tong Xia, who didn't know that Shen Junyu also left later, looked indifferent, and did not have the slightest consciousness of what he had done wrong.
"Does this have anything to do with you, wouldn't it be better for me to go? Why, do you still want me to watch you take care of her? Thinking that she was lined up outside like an outsider last night, and Shen Junyu, who was her husband, was busy taking care of Tong Xin, Tong Xia couldn't restrain her emotions.
"So in your heart, that's how I am?" Hearing that his wife actually thought of himself like this, Shen Junyu couldn't help it even if he was generous, turned around and left directly.
As the person directly responsible, Tong Xia struggled in his eyes, but finally lost to his arrogance. The two of them started a cold war like this, and they didn't achieve Shen Junyu's original intention of coming to the hospital to reconcile at all.
Such a sudden quarrel just made Tong Xia have no choice, and went directly back to his dormitory in the hospital, and returned to the previous days of being alone.
Tong Xia, who returned to the hospital dormitory, lay directly on the bed, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes, completely empty.
Knock knock knock...... Bursts of knocks kept coming in, but Tong Xia didn't have the slightest intention of getting up. In the end, he was really afraid of disturbing the people, so Tong Xia had to drag his half-crippled body to open the door.
"It's you, what's the matter?" I was worried that such an eager voice would be something urgent, but when I saw Jiang Daoxing's face, I put it all down.
"What else do you ask me? I've called you so many times and they've turned off your phone, have you ever taken one? β
Seeing Tong Xia's decadent appearance, Jiang Daoxing was a little worried, but he was afraid of being disgusted, so he could only pretend not to care and ask, for fear that it would make her feel overstep and draw a line with herself.
Tong Xia didn't care about what Jiang Daoxing said, but after hearing the mobile phone, he went to find it slowly. It turned out that the phone had already run out of power and turned off.
"You, you still say you're a doctor, so careless?" As friends, the two have always lost each other, but Tong Xia didn't react much.
"But what's wrong with you today, still thinking about that?" As the investigator of the truth, Jiang Daoxing is very aware of the blow of the truth to Tong Xia, but no matter what, he always hopes that she can be better to him.
"It's okay, just give me a little time to slow down......" Tong Xia, who didn't care, tried to squeeze out a smile, trying to make people feel relieved, but he didn't expect to be directly disgusted by Jiang Daoxing.
The two of them were fighting with each other, like children who hadn't grown up in their teens. Although this is a bit naΓ―ve, it is what Jiang Daoxing used to do most often.
Looking at Tong Xia, who was always depressed in front of him, Jiang Daoxing couldn't help but move in his heart: "Xia Xia, let yourself go and let others go, okay?" β
It's rare for Jiang Daoxing to be so serious, Tong Xia wanted to laugh loudly, but found that he couldn't speak at all, and the whole person instantly relaxed.
She didn't understand what her friend meant, but it was so difficult to do......
"Don't talk about that, if it's okay, I'll rest first, I'm a little tired." Tong Xia, who didn't want to bother with his brains anymore, directly issued an eviction order.
The moment the door was closed, the whole person was close behind the door, silently pouring tears, only a lonely room for companionship.
After leaving the hospital angrily, he was reluctant to return to the cold and unpopular home, so he had to go back to the law firm alone, stay up late and work overtime, and let his work numb himself.
However, what Shen Junyu didn't expect was that Tong Xin was still there at such a late hour, not only that, but he also behaved strangely, quietly, and didn't say a word.
"Why didn't you go back, your parents would be worried." It is undeniable that even because of Tong Xin, there have been many misunderstandings between herself and Tong Xia.
But in Shen Junyu's cognition, everything Tong Xin suffered was because of Tong Xia, and she could be regarded as an indirect life-saving benefactor, so Shen Junyu couldn't turn a blind eye no matter what.
"Are you caring about me? You care about me! I knew, I knew, you wouldn't forget me so ruthlessly, would you? β
Shen Junyu's not-so-blunt concern was like Gan Lin, which rekindled Tong Xin's courage, and the whole person suddenly stepped forward and hugged Shen Junyu.
"Let it go, you ......"
Shen Junyu, who didn't want to be entangled, originally wanted to push Tong Xin away directly, but inadvertently saw the panic in Tong Xin's eyes, which made Shen Junyu very uncomfortable.
In Shen Junyu's view, the reason why Tong Xin, who has always been perfect and confident, became like this is because of the so-called psychological trauma, and it is because of this that he feels even more guilty in his heart.
But what he didn't know was that all this was an illusion, the so-called panic was just afraid that Tong Xia would tell the truth, and as for Tong Xia'er's injury, it was nonsense, if Tong Xia saw this scene at this moment, he would only feel hypocritical and cold.
"Don't worry, no one here will hurt you anymore." Even if Shen Junyu comforted her like this, the childlike heart still refused to let go, and the whole person was cowering.
Shen Junyu, who couldn't stand it, had to choose to give up her job and send her back, "Let's go, I'll send you home." β
Tong Xin, who succeeded in her goal, tried the benefits of showing weakness, and she couldn't let go at all. And Shen Junyu didn't know that he was about to step into a place that was more terrifying than the wolf's den.
"Mom, you haven't slept yet, I'll send Tong Xin back." Shen Junyu, who wanted to leave immediately after saying hello, would never have thought that there would be parents in the world who would be biased to such a point anyway.
"Jun Yu, it's so late, why don't you leave early, you can still go to work with Xin'er, and your father and I can rest assured."
Shen Junyu subconsciously wanted to refuse, no matter what, he knew in his heart that if there was no Tong Xia, he would have nothing to do with this family.
However, when his eyes touched the second elder, Shen Junyu couldn't say anything if he refused. Under the loving eyes of his parents, Shen Junyu stayed.
"What do you want to do? Don't forget, Jun Yu is already Xia Xia's husband and our son-in-law. Dad, who was a little clearer-headed, frowned and disagreed with Mom's behavior just now.
"Do you think I want to do this? Don't you know how miserable Xin'er cried when she knelt in front of me that day? Besides, Jun Yu was a couple with Xin'er from the beginning. β
The mother who was counted down was a little angry, Xin'er, who had always been proud of herself, was already sad when she became like this, and now she can't even get the person she likes, and she is very distressed as a mother.
Hearing his mother say this, his father suddenly quieted down, although he still disagreed with it in his heart, but when he thought of the scene his wife said, he felt a little sad in his heart.
However, after being left behind, Shen Junyu felt uncomfortable, but fortunately, there was still the smell of Tong Xia in someone's bed, and this night was not too difficult.
β¦β¦
"Xia Xia, don't be angry, okay, Xia Xia...... What are you doing here? When she woke up in the middle of the night, Shen Junyu never forgot Tong Xia's name, but after smelling the unfamiliar smell, she suddenly woke up.
After quickly turning on the light, Shen Junyu realized that it was none other than Tong Xin who was sitting on the edge of his bed. Rao felt guilty about her in his heart, and he couldn't bear to have his private space invaded like this.
"Are you alright?" Tong Xin's hand pinched her thigh fiercely under her clothes, trying to suppress her desire to vent.
God knows the hatred when she heard Shen Junyu calling Tong Xia in a voice, and Shen Junyu's disgusted eyes when she saw that it was herself hit her to the bottom.
"I'm fine, you can get out." Shen Junyu, who came to his senses, didn't want to say more, but calmly invited Tong Xin away, and even locked it without hesitation.
Tong Xin, who knew the movement, flashed a trace of injury in her eyes, flashing with hatred, but she didn't make any trouble, and obediently returned to her room, and the quiet and docile even made Shen Junyu think that she was wrong to blame her.
An episode passed like this, and no one looked into it, but a camera quietly recorded everything......
