Chapter 117: The Heart That Wants to Be Hidden
After seeing Yan Xinuo walk out of the lounge, Xia Yihuan's gaze naturally fell on Zi Ling's body. Thinking of the news she saw on Weibo just now, she didn't know if she wanted to tell Zi Ling.
Zi Ling, who was originally sitting on the sofa resting with squinted eyes, seemed to have a sense, and almost immediately, she opened her eyes and looked up at Xia Yihuan. At the moment when the eyes of the two met, Xia Yihuan chose to avoid it. This made the sensitive purple spirit seem to have grasped something all of a sudden.
"Sister-in-law, do you have something to say to me?"
Seeing Xia Yihuan's obvious dodge, Zi Ling simply asked directly. She had known Xia Yihuan for a while, and Zi Ling consciously knew something about this sister-in-law, so the details she had just noticed made her sure that something must have happened. So she stood up and grabbed Xia Yihuan's hand.
"Ji Luo, he..."
Xia Yihuan is not good at lying, so when she was asked by Zi Ling, she became distracted. Especially being stared at by Zi Ling's eyes, she felt even more pressure. It's just that when she accidentally blurted out these three words, she noticed that Zi Ling's face had changed.
Originally, she was still curious about what her sister-in-law had to say to her, but when she heard the name of that person, it began to turn into her dodging. Although she didn't want to admit it, her heart twitched unconsciously when she heard his name. But soon, she came to her senses, because she knew very well what her relationship was with that person.
"He... What's wrong? ”
Although she knew very well in her heart that she shouldn't think about or care about that man, but seeing Xia Yihuan's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, her heart still couldn't help but rise. He... Did something happen?
"I don't know what happened to him, but there are reports that he was admitted to the hospital, and he was rushed to the hospital. It's just that the report was written with some nonsense and alarmist. As you know, the media loves to make up stories. ”
Seeing that Zi Ling's eyes were obviously worried but he tried his best to hide it, Xia Yihuan sighed and finally said the matter. She had been struggling for a while, and now that she had spoken out, she was finally relieved. It's just that she doesn't know what she does, and what she does is completely opposite to what Yan Xinuo thought.
She thought in her heart about the various reactions that Zi Ling would have, but she never thought it would be this. Zi Ling was very calm, and it was unusually calm, which made her feel indescribable. I have to say that Xia Yihuan was frightened by such a purple spirit.
"Oh."
After pausing for a while, noticing that Xia Yihuan was still staring at his face, Zi Ling was a little sluggish and responded. Again, she turned around and turned her back to Xia Yihuan, not letting her see the expression on her face.
She didn't want to do this, but she didn't know why, when she heard that Situ Jiluo was hospitalized, her heart began to sink uncontrollably, but this kind of emotion only occupied half of her entire mind. The reason why it is only half is because her consciousness is still awake, she is still sane. And this is exactly what she can do to restrain her emotions.
She deeply understood that the worry in her heart at this time was not allowed by him, or that he was not uncommon. So even if she keeps shouting in her heart and makes her want to care about that person, she will try her best to restrain it. Because she knows that she is not qualified.
It's been three days, and she hasn't seen Situ Jiluo for three days. Although she hasn't had a mobile phone by her side for the past few days, she can guess without thinking about it that with his personality, it is impossible to take the initiative to find her.
Although the brother said that he had talked to him, but so many things had happened in the past three days, and she still hadn't gotten any news about him looking for her, so he must really not care about her!
Her heart was so cold that she began to think that she was so humble. So she commanded herself to laugh, even if it was more like laughing at herself, mocking her own self-inflicted amorousness.
She didn't know how she was going to face him in the future, but one thing she knew for sure was her heart... It's different.
"Xiaoxi, you..."
Looking at Zi Ling's sad back, Xia Yihuan suddenly felt guilty and regretted telling her about Situ Jiluo. I wanted to come forward to comfort her, but at this time, the door of the lounge suddenly opened, and Yan Xinuo also walked in.
"I've already told Brother Wei Jian."
After glancing at Zi Ling, Yan Xinuo turned his head to Xia Yihuan and said. As soon as he pushed the door in, he felt that the atmosphere inside was strange, and he didn't have to think about it, something must have happened. Of course, he wouldn't ask what was going on so directly, so he had to get rid of Zi Ling first.
"Xiaoxi, can you help my brother buy a cup of coffee?"
"Uh... All right. ”
After taking the wallet from the bag, Zi Ling left the lounge directly without saying a word, leaving the space for his brother and sister-in-law. She is not stupid, she has long seen that her brother has something to tell her sister-in-law alone, so she deliberately broke her side.
Walking down the hallway to the drink vending machine at the other end, Zi Ling sighed, and then dug through his wallet for change. I finally managed to make up for it, but I found that the vending machine had sold out of coffee.
So, she had no choice but to turn around and prepare to go downstairs. Since her brother wants to drink coffee, she simply goes to the café downstairs to bring him a cup, anyway, it's not good to drink too much from the vending machine, and by the way, give the two people in the lounge more space.
"Uh... Miss Purple Spirit? ”
Zi Ling's hand touched the doorknob of the café, and before he could push the door in, he was suddenly stopped. When she came down all the way, she paid attention to her surroundings, because there were no people, and she didn't expect to be recognized. So when someone suddenly called for her voice behind her, she was obviously stunned.
"Brother Wei Jian?"
Turning to face the person who spoke with a little shock, Zi Ling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that this person was his brother's agent. It turned out to be him, and she thought it was someone, and she was scared to death.
"How can you come down so late? Buying coffee? ”
"Hmm. My brother said he wanted to drink coffee, so..."
"Come in, I'm just going to buy a drink."
As he spoke, He Weijian took a step forward, pushed open the door, and motioned for Zi Ling to go in first. In the middle of the night, although there were not many people in the café, there were still a few people sitting there with laptops to surf the Internet, so Zi Ling hung his head as soon as he entered, afraid of being recognized.
"Let's go."
As if sensing Zi Ling's concern, He Weijian grabbed her shoulder, blocked all sight, and led her to the cashier. Zi Ling nodded with gratitude and followed him.
"Brother Wei Jian, why are you here so late?"
After taking out the coffee, the two of them walked along the corridor together, and Zi Ling suddenly asked. Seeing that He Weijian seemed to be walking in the same direction as herself, she couldn't help but wonder if he was coming to find her brother. It's just that when the two of them walked into the elevator, she suddenly realized when she saw He Weijian pressing a button that was different from herself.
"I'm coming to see Guillo, he's... Also in this hospital. ”
The elevator door closed, and while He Weijian was talking, he also observed Zi Ling's expression through the reflection of the door. Earlier, he suspected that Situ Jiluo had something to do with Zi Ling, but no matter how he asked, that kid pretended to be stupid with himself.
"Huh? What happened to him? ”
Xia Yihuan was aware of He Weijian's eyes, so she deliberately surprised herself, as if she didn't know about it. However, the somewhat trembling voice and slightly trembling fingers still revealed her true emotions.
In the eyes of outsiders, she and Situ Jiluo are partners who have worked together, so it should be normal to care so politely and not be suspected, right?
"Alas! He's not good at stomach, he doesn't pay attention to his diet, and he drinks so much wine, it's really bad! ”
It seemed that he couldn't see any clues, He Weijian had no choice but to sigh weakly, and then complained about Cheese Jiluo. Because she is Yan Xinuo's sister, He Weijian has no taboos, so he naturally treats her as his own, otherwise he would not say such things to her.
It's just that he didn't know what to do, although Zi Ling seemed to be very calm, but after listening to this passage, his heart set off a wild wave. Now that she knows the reason why Situ Jiluo was admitted to the hospital, not only did she not appear more calm because she got the answer, but she could hardly continue to pretend not to care anymore.
Has his stomach been bad?! Why don't you pay attention to your diet and drink for what?!
Just when she felt like she was about to lose control, the elevator door "ding" and opened. Zi Ling didn't know what He Weijian told her, and when she came to her senses, the other party was no longer there, and the elevator door had been closed.
When the elevator door closed again, it was already on the top floor, and Zi Ling lingered for a while before dragging his heavy steps out of the room. Within a few steps, she saw her brother standing in the hallway waiting for her.
"Xiaoxi, where have you been?"
"I... I'll buy you coffee. ”
As he spoke, Zi Ling raised the coffee in his hand, and then handed it to Yan Xinuo. Seeing the situation, Yan Xinuo took the coffee, touched Zi Ling's head with some distress, and then thanked him.
"You're tired for a day, I'll let you see you back."
"But, brother..."
"Don't be, be obedient."
Although she didn't want to go back and wanted to guard her father here, but her brother said that, and she didn't have much to say. My brother spoils himself very much, she knows the truth, but as long as he is serious, even she has no room for negotiation, so she can only be obedient.
"I'll go down for a while, and then you can go again."
Originally, he wanted Xia Yihuan to take Zi Ling back to rest now, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't rest assured of his father. So I planned to let the two of them stay a little longer, and I went downstairs to take a look at Situ Jiluo, met He Weijian for a while, and then came back quickly.
Looking at the back of his brother leaving, Zi Ling exhaled weakly. Although Yan Xinuo didn't say it, she had roughly guessed that he was going downstairs to see Situ Jiluo. In fact, she also wanted to know how Lu Dao's condition was, and even asked to go with him, but she didn't say it. Because she knew she couldn't do this anymore.
So, after staring at the closed elevator door for several seconds, she finally shuffled back to the lounge just now.
