The taxi stopped at the gate of the hospital. After promising that she would come back quickly, the driver waited outside while Jean entered the hospital.
Without wasting any time, Jean went to Moore's ward. On reaching, she asked him for some money, informing him that she had no time for explanation. He was confused but did as he was told. Jean hurriedly ran outside after he passed her the money.
Seeing her hurry, Moore wondered what happened and tried to follow her. Unfortunately, the wound on his body still hadn't healed completely so he could not catch up with her.
Feeling defeated, he tried to scan for her in the crowd. After a while, Jean came back panting. She met Moore who was looking for her in the hallway.
"Moore…" At the moment she saw Moore, Jean started to feel her tears flow again.
Seeing that Jean was sad, Moore decided to stop probing her for answers. He wanted her to relax and gain her composure.
Together they walked back to the ward. Slowly, Moore asked,"What happened? What happened to you?"
"I…" Jean hesitated and showed a bitter smile on her face. "Have you received the key to your house? I want to live in your house for a couple of days."
"Could you please tell me what happened?" Moore looked at Jean and asked seriously.
"Something bad happened to me. But I do not want to talk about it right now." Jean looked at Moore with her tear-filled eyes and continued,"Moore, could you please stop asking me about it?"
"Okay." Moore looked deeply at Jean and nodded. "I have received the key. I will give it to you now."
After saying that, he went to take the key.
When the brand-new key was handed over to Jean, she could not help bursting into tears.
Moore was shocked by Jean's reaction and did not know how to deal with it. He said,"Jean, I have agreed not to ask you about that. Why are you crying?"
"I am just happy." Jean sniffed and wiped away her tears with her hand. "Moore, what would have happened to me if I hadn't met you?"
Hearing that, Moore was sad. He realized she was really sad today. With his lovely eyes, he looked at Jean. Patiently, he said,"Jean, no matter how hard life becomes for you. You need to know I am always here to help you. You should be strong and stop being sad, okay?"
Jean nodded and looked at Moore with a smile.
"Only a few seconds ago you were crying, and now you are smiling. You are such a child, Jean!" Moore suddenly joked.
"You are a child!" Jean pretended to be angry at him for calling her a baby. "Don't tease me anymore. Otherwise, I will not come to visit you again…"
"Okay. I won't tease you anymore." Moore quickly promised while raising his hand helplessly. "Do you have any money now? I don't know what's in the house. Here is the money you have given me before. If you need anything, you can use it…"
Moore took out an envelope and handed it to Jean.
Seeing that Moore was so considerate, Jean was moved and had the impulse to cry again.
However, to avoid being teased by Moore, Jean tried her best to control it. "I see," Jean said while she took the envelope with her hesitant hands.
"Let's go!" Seeing that Jean has taken the envelope, Moore picked up his coat and walked outside.
"Where are we going?" Jean asked with a look of puzzlement.
"Obviously, I am sending you to the house! I am also very curious about the decoration of my house and want to have a look at it." Moore flashed Jean a smile while he spoke.
Hearing that, Jean was moved. Deep down, she knew it was an excuse to ensure she was safe there.
'Moore is not really curious about the decoration of the house, ' she thought.
He realized she wouldn't let him accompany her, so he used it as an excuse.
"Moore, I can go there by myself. You haven't recovered now…"
