Lin Wan Bai did not even blink.
He watched helplessly as the tall and stern figure left, until the door closed.
The room fell into silence, as if nothing had happened. Only she knew what she had just experienced.
We broke up.
Unlike the time she brought it up, he still brought it with him, which meant that he had already made a decision.
However, when he said those four words, how could he not hesitate at all?
She had never known that men were more ruthless than women when it came to heartlessness. It was no wonder that someone said that even if a woman said that they would break up ten thousand times, they wouldn't be able to do it clean. However, if a man said that they would split up ten thousand times, then they might never turn back.
Lin Wan Bai slumped onto the sofa, tightly clutching his chest.
A type of angina pectoris that seemed to seep out of the blood. It was very short, but it was really very severe.
If it was said that her grandmother's sudden death brought her no small amount of destruction, then Huo Chang Yuan had given her a heavy blow. From the moment he left for America, she had laid on the bed and watched his leaving figure, her heart filled with sweetness and reluctance, as though she was looking forward to his return every single day.
Especially these few days, thinking about him was the only thing that kept her going.
But he had finally come back, and he didn't want her anymore.
No wonder she was the one who mustered all her courage and shamelessly went to find him and reunite with him.
Lin Wan Bai looked at the silver ring on the table that had been abandoned.
She lowered her head and took off her own. After wearing it for so long, there were traces of it on her body.
Looking at the pair of pure silver rings, she laughed bitterly and sarcastically. This kind of ordinary and cheap ring, was indeed incompatible with his identity, just like what he said. He felt it was meaningless, he didn't want to fight against Hopper, didn't want to lose his position as the CEO of Hauptmann's, and also didn't want to continue playing emotional games with her …
It wasn't his fault. It really wasn't. She respected his choice.
However, Lin Wan Bai was unable to control himself from thinking back to when he had just finished eating dinner at the Lin Family household, and very sadly told her about the relationship between him and her father. At that time, he had held her shoulders and kissed her on the forehead: "You have me now."
His calm voice was still resounding in his ears, but it felt like a lifetime had passed.
This time, she was really alone.
Lin Wan Bai buried his face in his hands, as drops of liquid started to fall from the gaps.
Tears fell like rain.
The next day, he returned to work at the company.
Life was like this. Even if something shocking happened, it would continue as usual.
After finding out that someone from her family had passed away, the manager did not feel troubled anymore. He used the three days of absence from work as sick leave and even comforted her a little.
In the evening, she received a call from Sang Xiao Yu. The other party's voice was unexpectedly coming from the hospital.
After getting off work, Lin Wan Bai took a taxi and went over.
private hospital was the one with Qin Si Nian. She smiled, but it wasn't anything unexpected. However, he quickly frowned, because Hopper was also staying in this hospital.
Entering the Inpatient Department, Lin Wan Bai rode on the elevator and arrived at the surgical floor. She thought that it would be an ordinary ward, but she was slightly surprised when she arrived at the advanced ward after being questioned by the nurses.
Sang Xiao Yu laid on the sickbed wearing a disease suit. She was not too sick, her complexion was good, she had a straw in her mouth, and beside him was a cup of milk tea.
Hearing the door open, she frantically pulled the straw out of her mouth, opened a drawer, and threw the milk tea into it. She turned her back, as if she was sleeping, and her movements were smooth one after another.
Lin Wan Bai watched the entire performance, he walked over with a smile, and poked her from the side: "Xiaoyu?"
"Aiya, Little White, it's you!" When Sang Xiao Yu heard her voice, she immediately turned around and patted her chest exaggeratedly. "You scared me, I thought it was …"
"Who is it?" Lin Wan Bai blinked his eyes.
"No one!" Sang Xiao Yu blushed a little.
"Is it the Dr. Qin?" Lin Wan Bai instantly guessed it.
"It's that beast!" Sang Xiao Yu was so angry that she did not even notice it herself, and her expression was extremely bashful, "I've been in the hospital for several days already, give me rice porridge everyday, please, I'm about to throw up! I want fried chicken and fries. He said it's junk food. Don't touch it! I bribed a little boy in pediatrics to buy this cup of milk tea for me, so I can't let him know! "
"Dr. Qin is doing this for your own good. You are a patient now!" Lin Wan Bai sat on a chair at the side and asked worriedly, "Xiaoyu, what's going on?
Sang Xiao Yu sat up, her movements deliberately doing it slowly, and smiled at her: "You're okay! I just had an appendicitis operation a few days ago, so I found out about your grandma's condition. When I rushed over, I felt the wound and became inflamed, causing a fever! However, it's not a big deal now. The doctor will be able to sew it up again, and once the wound is healed, I'll be able to leave the hospital and return to being full of life! "
"It's all my fault, I caused you to worry." Lin Wan Bai felt very guilty.
"What are you saying!?" "Who's with whom? What's more, when we were in university, didn't Grandma always make beef mince for us? I should have gone to send her off!" Sang Xiao Yu grumbled to the end, her voice also becoming softer. Seeing that her complexion was worse than her, she sighed, "Xiao Bai, are you alright?"
"I'm still okay …" Lin Wan Bai smiled.
"No one has thought about Granny's matter, but it's inevitable that people will die from old age. Don't be too immersed in your grief!"
"I will."
Sang Xiao Yu nodded without worry and asked again, "I heard from the beasts that Hutong has returned?"
"Mm …" Lin Wan Bai curled his fingers.
"Fortunately, you still have the Hutong!" Sang Xiao Yu smiled upon hearing this.
"…" Lin Wan Bai lowered his eyes.
Coming out of the sickroom, Lin Wan Bai took the elevator and left. He didn't want to stay here for too long, he was afraid that he would run into people he didn't want to meet.
Just as he was about to leave the hospital, a long commercial car stopped in front of the entrance. The driver respectfully opened the door and got out of the car.
She wore flats and a long white cashmere coat that revealed two slender legs.
Lu Jing Xue did not leave immediately, but turned around instead. Immediately after, she got out of the car, there was another tall and big figure who was still wearing the common black handmade suit.
He had a cigarette in his hand, and as he tossed it on the ground and crushed it out with his shoe, the white smoke came out of his thin lips.
One black and one white, forming a very eye-catching scene.
Lin Wan Bai's legs seemed to have grown roots as he could not move at all.
