Chen Xi watched as Tang Hongbo left, both embarrassed and angry. She knew that he had never been one to lose his rationality, but just now, he had truly lost his composure.
No, no, no, what is she doing? Chen Xi shook her head.
What he had done to her back then with Duan Wenyu, if he had told her about it earlier, she thought, they wouldn't have reached such a state right now.
The physical pain was tolerable, but what would she do if her heart hurt?
Even if the wound in her heart could heal, it would still have scars after healing, and she wasn't the kind of person who would forget the pain after healing.
She didn't know how many people had participated in that incident, but she knew that she definitely wouldn't let them off easy.
She was no longer the naive and innocent Duan Wenzhuo back then. Time would change everything, including her personality and thoughts.
All these years, under the influence of Chen Yiran and Han Hao, her thoughts had risen to more than just one level.
Actually, her heart was conflicted towards Tang Hongbo. She did not want to hurt him, but she also had no choice but to hurt him.
She recognized that he was hurting her, but she didn't recognize that the person he hurt was him.
In the end, she still lacked the courage to face him. If she loved him, she would have to hurt him. This was probably what she felt the most helpless about.
Her hospital gown was slightly wrinkled, and when she thought of that kiss just now, she couldn't help but blush.
She could not help but curse herself, unable to do anything.
When Han Hao came in with the discharge form, he saw Chen Xi sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
"Brook, are you training to change your face?"
Chen Xi turned her head and saw that it was Han Hao, she could not help but blush.
"Brother Han Hao, you're back."
"That's right. If I hadn't come back, how would I have been able to see such a wonderful change in your expression?" Han Hao continued to tease his.
"Brother Han Hao, stop joking around." He was secretly glad that he came back late. Otherwise, if he met with Tang Hongbo again, how would she explain it?
"Alright, the paperwork is done. Let's go home." Han Hao said gently.
Brother Yiran said that you seem to have some sort of meeting today. How about you go and busy yourself, I can go home by myself. "" Okay. Chen Xi said.
"It's fine. Since the meeting has been cancelled, I'll send you back." Han Hao said.
"Are you really alright?"
"I'm fine." Han Hao laughed.
"Uncle Han." Tony called softly behind him.
Han Hao turned his head.
"Tony, why are you here?" Han Hao hugged Tony and asked with a smile.
"Yes..." Tony was just about to say that Tang Hongbo was the one who sent him here, when he suddenly saw Chen Xi shake his head at him.
He immediately changed his mind.
"Uncle sent me here." Tony said.
"Your uncle? "What about him?" Han Hao asked.
"He's already gone. He said it was an urgent matter." Chen Xi quickly explained.
"Oh, then let's go." Han Hao said.
Chen Xi pulled Tony and walked in front. Looking at the big and small silhouettes, Han Hao suddenly felt that this was a feeling of happiness. If it wasn't for Tang Hongbo just now, his mood might have been a little better.
At this time, Han Hao was in line, waiting for the doctor to complete the discharge procedures, and when he finally got it, it was already 20 minutes later.
When he took the documents back to the sickroom, he saw Tang Hongbo. It was obvious that he had also seen himself.
Out of politeness, he went up and greeted her with a smile.
"Boss Tang, you're in the hospital too. Are you feeling unwell?"
Tang Hongbo looked at him with hostility in his eyes as he said with a smile.
"Director Han, what are you doing?" Tang Hongbo looked at the document in his hand.
"Oh, it's Creek. She has to leave the hospital today, so I can't do anything about her. I have to go through the discharge procedures for her." Han Hao answered truthfully.
The corner of Tang Hongbo's mouth pulled up into a smile, and then he asked.
"I wonder, what is the relationship between Director Han and himself?"
Just as Han Hao wanted to say something, he suddenly remembered what Chen Xi said before he fainted yesterday, but he could not say it out loud. Chen Xi was his wife's words, in the end he thought for a while, and replied with a smile.
"The creek is my girlfriend." Han Hao didn't know why Chen Xi had said that before, but for her sake, he was willing.
When those words were said, Han Hao felt that the temperature of Tang Hongbo's entire body had dropped.
"What's wrong? Boss Tang? " Han Hao asked.
Tang Hongbo loosened his grip on his hand and said with a deeper meaning behind his words.
"So, she is Director Han's girlfriend. It looks like I have truly mistaken her. Miss Chen looks exactly like my wife."
Han Hao looked at him in astonishment, and said after a long while.
"You, your wife?"
"Yes, my wife, but she disappeared three years ago. She was still pregnant when she disappeared." Tang Hongbo pretended to say lightly.
Han Hao's heart shook, and his expression became somewhat ugly. He thought of the Chen Xi from three years ago.
"Yes, yes? "What a pity." Han Hao wanted to laugh but was unable to.
Yes, I also feel that it's a pity, I have been waiting for her to come back, and when I saw Miss Chen, I was truly a little surprised, but, she was actually Director Han's girlfriend, I am truly sorry. Tang Hongbo said deliberately.
Han Hao was stunned at the side, and could only reply with a smile.
"Alright, I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first." Tang Hongbo laughed.
"Alright, I'll see you later Boss Tang." Han Hao nodded mechanically.
He suddenly knew why Chen Xi had acted so strangely after returning to their country.
Was she really his missing wife? Han Hao had too many questions in his heart.
He adjusted his emotions and walked towards the ward. Perhaps because he was too concerned about her, the moment he entered the room, he saw the blush that still lingered on her face, as well as the creases in her clothes.
If this didn't mean anything, then couldn't her slightly swollen lips say that something had happened just now?
He was a little short of breath, but he pretended to be relaxed as he joked with her.
In fact, both he and Chen Yiran had always been curious about her background. However, every time they talked about it, she would stay silent or faint, and afterwards, both he and Chen Yiran didn't dare to ask anymore.
She did not know her name, did not know her age, and was pregnant. However, so what? He was still unable to extricate himself. To him, as long as he could accompany her, it would be enough.
She was Chen Xi, and to him, she was merely a Chen Xi he placed in his heart.
He watched as Chen Xi Tony walked in the snow step by step, leaving behind shallow footprints. She tilted her head as if she was talking to Tony.
The displeasure in his heart from before seemed to have been replaced with a feeling of happiness.
He had thought it through. Even if he had some sort of relationship with Tang Hongbo in the past, what did it matter? As long as she was happy, he was happy.
Thinking of this, he quickly followed.
In the winter morning, there were less pedestrians on the streets. Han Hao drove a car while chatting with Chen Xi.
"Brook, it was Christmas yesterday, but we all spent it outside. How about we make up for it tonight?" Han Hao asked with a smile.
"Is there anything that's been fixed for Christmas? It's not a birthday. " Chen Xi laughed.
"Yeah, it's also a new idea after Christmas, so let me create this new idea." Han Hao said with a smile.
"Are you for real?" Chen Xi couldn't help but ask when she saw his serious look.
"Really, Tony wants a Christmas tree, I'm ready." Han Hao said.
"Thank you, Uncle Han." Tony, who was sitting in the back seat, happily thanked his.
"You're welcome."
"Alright, you win." Chen Xi laughed helplessly.
"Mn, let's get Ah Ran home early tonight." Han Hao said.
"I remember the previous Christmas, the three of us spent it together. Don't you have any friends?" Chen Xi asked.
"I do, you and Ah Ran are both my friends, right?" Han Hao replied.
Chen Xi frowned.
There was nothing wrong with that, but why did it feel weird?
"That's true." Chen Xi replied.
"What about you?" Han Hao asked.
"I what?" Chen Xi did not understand.
"Your friend?"
"Brother Han Hao, have you gone silly? I just returned back to China, where did your friends come from? Chen Xi said with a smile.
"I mean, friends at home?" After Han Hao finished speaking, he observed her expression.
Chen Xi suddenly went silent. She couldn't help but regret that she had asked such a reckless question.
"Little brook, don't mind it. I'm just casually asking, don't take it to heart." Han Hao explained as he drove.
"It's fine, I was just thinking, I have those friends in the country, but after thinking about it again and again, I still haven't found any. Isn't it funny?" Chen Xi said, and then laughed.
But I, Han Hao, can't feel her happiness at all.
"What's so funny? Don't you still have Ah Ran and me? And Tony? So what if we don't have friends? We will always be by your side." Han Hao consoled.
Chen Xi laughed.
"I know, I'm not sad. You don't need to comfort me. I just feel that it's quite good that everything can be started again."
"En, Brook. No matter what happened in the past, nothing will change now. We will always accompany you." Han Hao said firmly.
Chen Xi suddenly laughed.
