Chapter 497 - Its Him Again (2/2)

”I'll send you there,” the man added. His dilemma was as clear as day and night. It was all him.

”No, thanks.” Xia Ruoxin held the lunch box tightly, turned, and walked in the direction to the hospital. In her wake, she left the cold winter and another man.

Chu Lui started the car and followed behind her until she arrived at the hospital. He got off his car, took a cigarette, and started smoking. Obviously, he knew who she was looking for and the reason for her coming here. He knew and witnessed. However, as uncomfortable as it was for him, he stayed no matter how painful it was.

”Haha…” He laughed bitterly. ”Xia Ruoxin, I am going through whatever you have gone through in the past.”

…

”Ruoxin, what are you doing here?” Gao Yi had just returned to his office when he saw Xia Ruoxin who shouldn't be here. It was already so late. He looked at the time on his watch. It was almost eleven o'clock. Was Rainy asleep?

”I came out to buy something and, at the same time, bring you some food.” She set the lunch box on the table. ”I cooked some noodles. You can eat it when you're hungry.”

”It must be tough on you.” Gao Yi walked over to her side. He placed his hands on each of her shoulders. ”It's late. Don't do it again next time. It's too dangerous outside.”

Xia Ruoxin rested her head on his shoulder. She didn't know why, but her feelings were complicated today. She had not stayed long at the hospital because Gao Yi was on duty. He had to go to the wards to check on his patients from time to time. Had she stayed, she would be giving him more trouble.

Neither did she let Gao Yi send her. Just then, a patient seemed to have some problem. Gao Yi left in a hurry. Xia Ruoxin left the hospital but realized that the low-key sedan was still parked there.

Xia Ruoxin paused in her steps as she made her way back home while the sedan followed behind her at a distance.

It was here. Xia Ruoxin raised her head when she walked past a convenience store that was open twenty-four hours. When she emerged, she had bought a few bars of chocolate.

The sedan continued to follow from behind. She wasn't walking fast. At eleven o'clock in the evening, there were still quite a lot of passers-by who would walk past her. After some time, she stopped walking and turned her head around. That sedan was no longer there.

So, he left.

That's great.

She opened the door to her house which was filled with a dim light.

She blew hot air into her hands. The heat coming from the house warmed her body immediately.

She opened the bedroom door gently and saw that the little imp was still sound asleep. However, she had kicked the blanket away; and her toes were exposed. Xia Ruoxin walked over and tucked the blanket over her daughter gently.

Sleep well. She, too, lay down. Finally, she could sleep in peace. Unknown to her, there was a black car outside. A man was chain-smoking in the icy wind which was blowing at his clothes. However, he could feel nothing as he leaned his back against the car.
