CHAPTER 221 (2/2)
Jiang Xie’s mood was good and his spirit cheered up. “You worked hard.”
The money he spent over the years gave a powerful boost to the entire medical profession and the doctors were more grateful to him.
Jiang Xie went to see Jiang Hong. She looked good and they talked for a while.
Then Jiang Xie remained with her and handled the work as remotely as possible.
A course of treatment took seven days. In just half a month, Jiang Hong had recovered by more than half and there were no signs of it spreading.
The doctors were overjoyed. “There are no problems. After two more courses of treatment, you can be discharged!”
The big stone in Jiang Xie’s heart for six years was finally put down.
He returned to the ward and cut an apple for Jiang Hong.
Jiang Hong’s cheeks were rosy and she was able to get out of bed and walked around. She told her brother, “There are many things to do in China. You should go back quickly.”
Jiang Xie told her, “I will only feel reassured once you are discharged from hospital.”
Jiang Hong laughed. “It will take another half a month.”
“I’m not in a hurry.”
In these years, Jiang Hong’s spirits were poor and she was bedridden. She barely asked any questions about the company. At this point, she was gradually emerging from her disease and finally had the heart to ask.
“Xiao Xie.” Jiang Hong spoke strongly. “It is time to let go of what happened six years ago.”
Jiang Xie’s hand paused as he cut the apple. “I don’t care.”
Jiang Hong told him, “Xie Xi used a sinister trick but you now have Chengyu. It is sufficient.”
It was indeed enough if it was mere commercial retaliation.
The people who saw the Jiang family as a joke were now gobsmacked.
Who would think that after six years of prosperity, Chengyu would be captured by Jiang Xie and Xie Xi would lose what he worked so hard for?
Everyone said that the wheel turned but this turn was really fast.
Jiang Xie didn’t say anything. He just cut the apple into small pieces and placed them in front of Jiang Hong.
Jiang Hong looked at him and asked, “Tell me, you guys…”
Jiang Hong had doubts about such a deep obsession but previously she lacked mental strength and didn’t dare ask.
Jiang Xie didn’t hide it from her. Previously, he had scruples about her body but now he didn’t have to worry.
“I like him,” Jiang Xie whispered the words pressing heavily on his heart.
Jiang Hong wasn’t very surprised. She just felt some heartache.
It was no wonder why Jiang Xie couldn’t feel relieved for so many years and felt enough hate to steal Chengyu…
Jiang Hong sighed. “He was just using you.”
Jiang Xie moved his line of sight away and nodded. Jiang Hong had a close relationship with her brother and how could she not understand him?
“You…” Jiang Hong was distraught. “You should drop the matter.”
Jiang Xie frowned deeply. “It’s fine, Sister. You don’t need to worry about these things.”
How could Jiang Hong not worry? She said, “Now that you know he is using you, let it go.”
The so-called revenge on Xie Xi was just self-torture.
Jiang Xie’s eyelashes trembled and he spoke in a hoarse voice. “If I could let go, I would’ve already done so.”
It was helpless, painful and so obstinate that even he couldn’t understand it himself.
Jiang Hong let out a long sigh. “Sister doesn’t want to interfere with your emotional life. It is just that Xie Xi can’t give you what you want.”
Everyone seemed to understand that it was only Jiang Xi who was obsessive.
Jiang Xie replied, “I know.”
Jiang Hong knew her brother. “Must you like him?”
Jiang Xie smiled bitterly and was unable to answer.
If feelings were something that could be casually changed by a person, they wouldn’t be called feelings.
Once Jiang Hong completely recovered, Jiang Xie prepared to return to China.
Jiang Hong told him, “I won’t go back. I have my life again and I’m thinking of strolling around to take a look.”
Jiang Xie was relieved. “Okay, do whatever you want to do in the future.”
Jiang Hong patted him on the shoulder. “I’m depending on you to raise me!”
“Good.”
Jiang Hong was happy. “You really dare to answer like this?”
Jiang Xie watched her with a smile.
Jiang Hong thought of his heart-wrenching feelings and was distressed. “Don’t be too pessimistic. You saw your sister escape from death. Perhaps you can also turn things around.”
Jiang Xie was stunned and shook his head. “It’s nothing. I’ll slowly forget.”
“Yes.” Jiang Hong tried to cheer him up. “There is a large forest. Why be hung up on one tree?”
Jiang Xie nodded but his heart thought, ‘There might be many trees in this world but only one is called Xie Xi.’
The seed in his heart had only grown into Xie Xi’s tree.
Jiang Xie returned to China and took care of everything before going to see Xie Xi.
He had left for one month and didn’t have time to pay attention to Xie Xi at all. Xie Xi could’ve left at any time.
However, Jiang Xie knew this person wouldn’t leave. He also knew why Xie Xi wouldn’t go. If he left, he would completely lose Chengyu. For this giant, Xie Xi had plenty of patience.
The moment he heard the door opening, Xie Xi was startled and hurriedly ate the cooked fish he was eating.
He knew that Jiang Xie had come back but he didn’t expect this person to come in the daytime. He was too careless! He almost choked to death.
Jiang Xie was standing outside the door and could only see Xie Xi’s back. His heart was instantly pulled into a knot.
How had Xie Xi lost so much weight?
