Chapter 332 We will see him soon

Lu Mengjie made up her mind to spill the beans after she noticed that both Si Hongqi and Tian Ruyi were staring at her and waited for her to proceed. "Bai Jingye's alive." Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

As soon as she finished speaking those words, the room fell into complete silence. The amazement on the faces of her friends grew gradually over time.

"W-What did you say?" The sound of Tian Ruyi's voice was weak and shaking. It was unclear to her whether or not she had correctly heard the words she said.

She extended her hand and took a firm grip on her hand once more. "Xiao Ruyi, Jingye is still living. I am so sorry that I did not tell you at once..."

As she stared at her in utter shock, the woman couldn't help but shed a few tears. "W-Where... where is he?" She removed her hand from her hold and stood up from the chair she had been sitting in. "Mengjie, if he is still alive, where is he?!!"

Tian Ruyi had a strong desire to see him for herself, which was why, despite the fact that a part of her knew Lu Mengjie was telling the truth, another part of her couldn't help but have doubts about what she was saying.

Si Hongqi also got to his feet and extended his hand to take hold of her hand. "Ruyi, calm down."

"If he's alive then I have to see him!"

There was no helping it. She should have expected such a reaction from her friend. Lu Mengjie got up from her seat and looked at the other woman. "Alright, I'll bring you to him but you have to calm down first, Xiao Ruyi."

Bai Jingye's brows flinched when she hit his arm. "Ow... I'm still injured, you know."

When she heard his words, she displayed an instantaneous expression of concern all over her face. "I-I didn't hit you hard..."

"You still hit me," he retorted.

"Do you... want to go to the hospital?" Instead of responding to her, he smiled at her while opening his arms to embrace her.

His gesture caused Tian Ruyi's lips to quiver slightly. As she finally bent down to give him a hug, she didn't even realize that she was crying. She buried her face on his shoulder, her tears drenching that part of his shirt.

Uneasiness crept up inside of Si Hongqi as he watched Tian Ruyi embrace Bai Jingye while he was seated in the wheelchair. At the same time, he was observing the scene. He was aware that he shouldn't have these feelings, but the closeness that Tian Ruyi had with her childhood friend was something that he lacked with her.

"Don't be jealous. They're just friends," said Lu Mengjie who was standing beside him.

"I'm not je-" He paused before he turned his gaze to her. When he saw the smirk on her lips, he frowned. "I'm not."

"If you say so." Despite what she said, she kept the smirk on her face as she turned her attention back to Tian Ruyi and Bai Jingye.

Was he really jealous? Si Hongqi couldn't help but question himself and as soon as he did, he quickly brushed off that thought. "I'm not jealous."
