“Aren’t you going to light it up?”
Lu Shichu asked as he sat down in the seat across Qin Muchen.
Qin Muchen fiddled with the cigarette for a while and didn’t put it down or light it up. “Aren’t doctors supposed to save and rescue the injured? Why are you asking me to smoke?”
“Smoking a little is fine.”
Lu Shichu chuckled before he looked at Qin Muchen interestingly.
Even though he didn’t spend much time with Qin Muchen, from what he remembered, Qin Muchen’s addiction to smoking was quite strong.
Back when he was in school, his classmates often asked him how to quit smoking and drinking.
Addiction came from within so you could quit if you wanted to. However, it would be difficult. After all, emotions were the most difficult thing to control.
“Okay,” Qin Muchen casually replied.
“Did you follow Ziyue here to visit Gong Zeyang?”
Lu Shichu was observant. From Su Ziyue’s healthy appearance, he could tell that she had recovered and didn’t require a checkup at all.
He wasn’t in charge when Gong Zeyang entered the hospital but because of Gong Zeyang’s identity, he had heard about what happened to him.
Qin Muchen’s brother-in-law…
Without much thought, Lu Shichu knew that it was Qin Muchen who had hit him.
Qin Muchen’s eyes flickered before he calmly said, “Incidentally.”
It was impossible for him to specially dedicate time to visit Gong Zeyang. The reason he couldn’t hold back his anger and beat up Gong Zeyang was not only because he had come out of Su Ziyue’s room. It also included his grudges from the past.
He hated himself for losing his temper just because Gong Zeyang said some things. However, combining all the past grudges together, Qin Muchen felt that he didn’t beat him up hard enough.
Su Ziyue was brought to a ward by the female doctor.
When she arrived at the examination room, she chatted with the doctor for a while before she asked her to just do a simple examination.
She told her that she was extremely well and could eat and sleep without any trouble.
It was just that her back injury was still in recovery so she had to be extra careful, but it had no impact on her daily life. Then, she complained that Qin Muchen was just making a fuss.
The female doctor understood and nodded.
After doing a simple examination on Su Ziyue, she emotionally said, “Your husband really treats you well.”
“Y-Yes…” Su Ziyue embarrassedly tucked her hair behind her ear and blushed.
After bidding farewell to the female doctor who envied her, Su Ziyue let out a sigh of relief and walked toward Lu Shichu’s office.
She pushed the door open and when she entered, she realized that there was no one inside.
Su Ziyue was in deep thought for a moment before she realized what was happening.
Qin Muchen told her that he brought her to the hospital for a checkup on a whim so she knew that he didn’t actually plan to come in the beginning.
Now that Lu Shichu and Qin Muchen weren’t in the office, she knew that the both of them definitely went to visit Gong Zeyang.
What a difficult man. It’s only a really small matter but he still had to give an excuse.
After Su Ziyue walked out of the office, she asked a nurse who passed by, “Have you seen the deputy director?”
“He went to the VIP ward over there.” The nurse had met Su Zhiyue before so she directly told her where Lu Shichu was.
As the nurse replied to her, she even pointed in the direction of the VIP wards.
Su Ziyue thanked her and made her way there.
As she walked over, she happened to see Lu Shichu coming out of the ward.
“Shichu.”
Su Ziyue called out to him before she ran up to him.
When Lu Shichu looked up and saw her, he was a little stunned. “Why are you here? Didn’t you come here for an examination?”
“Don’t try to scare me. I’m perfectly fine so I don’t need any examinations!” Su Ziyue said before she pouted her lips.
With a smile, Lu Shichu reached out and tousled her hair. “Your hair is oily.”
“My hair…” Su Ziyue hurriedly reached out to tidy her hair. After all, she had forced Qin Muchen to help her blow dry her hair for a long time that morning.
The smile on Lu Shichu’s face gradually faded away. “I have some things to do so I’ll be leaving now. Mr. Qin is… He’s still inside.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the ward behind him.
Su Ziyue nodded and leaned close to the doorway to take a peep.
All of a sudden, Lu Shichu called out to her. “Ziyue.”
“Yes?”
Su Ziyue replied without even looking at him. At that moment, she saw Qin Muchen standing in front of the hospital bed and he seemed to be saying something, but she couldn’t hear him from the other side of the door.
Seeing that she was fully focused on what was happening inside the ward, Lu Shichu bit his tongue. Instead, in a soft voice, he muttered, “I’ll be leaving now.”
“Okay, bye.”
It was then only Su Ziyue turned around to wave at him. Perhaps because she was afraid of alarming the people in the ward, her voice was lowered too.
Lu Shichu’s expression gradually turned cold. With that, he turned around and walked toward his office. On his way there, numerous nurses and doctors greeted him but he only nodded in response and his movements looked mechanical.
In the ward. Gong Zeyang glanced behind Qin Muchen and realized that there was no one else behind him.
Not seeing the person he wanted to meet, Gong Zeyang’s expression turned grim. “Why are you here? Did you regret your actions and came here to beg for forgiveness?”
After Qin Muchen heard this, he didn’t even bat an eyelid.
However, Gon Zeyang regarded his silence as a tacit acquiescence so he sneered, “It’s too late. We’ll meet in court.”
Ever since he was little, other than getting into fights when he was a child, even Gong Shuzhe never hit him before. As for the small child who had fought him, his family was threatened so badly, they couldn’t even live normal lives in Yunzhou City.
Besides, everyone thought that he was beaten up by Qin Muchen because he stopped him from molesting Su Yige. He was on the side of justice.
Just when he couldn’t figure out how to trouble Qin Muchen, Qin Muchen had come here himself.
“If you want to meet in court, I ask that you do it as soon as possible. I’m a busy person so I need to arrange my schedule in advance.” Qin Muchen was unusually calm but the disdain and contempt in his voice was obvious.
Gong Zeyang was so furious that he snorted and asked, “Qin Muchen, where did your confidence come from?”
Ever since he was a child, nobody dared to speak to him in such a tone other than his father, Gong Shuzhe.
“There’s no need for you to know.” As Qin Muchen spoke, he raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.
He estimated that Su Ziyue would have probably finished her examination if he headed back to Lu Shichu’s office now.
Su Ziyue wanted him to visit Gong Zeyang and he had no objections because he knew that he should check on Gong Zeyang to see if he was heavily injured.
However, seeing that Gong Zeyang could still speak and laugh, he couldn’t help but feel upset for not beating him up harder.
Furthermore, he didn’t want Su Ziyue to meet Gong Zeyang in person because he hated the way Gong Zeyang looked at her.
With that, Qin Muchen turned around to leave.
When he caught sight of the door, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and sharpened his gaze.
After Su Ziyue, who was outside the door, met Qin Muchen’s gaze, she jumped in surprise.
She didn’t expect him to suddenly turn his head around.
Qin Muchen was tall and muscular, so he managed to block Gong Zeyang’s vision and he didn’t see Su Ziyue.
Seeing that Qin Muchen was about to leave, he couldn’t help but sarcastically asked, “Why isn’t Ziyue here? Is it because you forbade her to come?”
