Chapter 303: Chapter 303
Feelings are inherently difficult to articulate clearly.
When a breakup happens, is it the person who stays that gets hurt more, or the one who leaves?
But after four years with Shi Nuan, they somewhat understood her personality.
Even without Song Yichuan in the mix, it would not have been easy for Shen Zui to win Shi Nuan back.
When Shen Zui left the hospital, he ran into Wang Sai and Qi Ruison.
Qi Ruison was in a bad mood, smoking under a tree, and Wang Sai seemed to be advising him about something.
Shen Zui didn’t know Wang Sai, but he knew he seemed to be Ou Xiaoning’s boyfriend, and he looked like a rather straightforward guy.
When Qi Ruison saw Shen Zui, he hurriedly approached and asked, "Hey, how’s your injury?"
Shen Zui shook his head: "It’s fine!"
Qi Ruison said goodbye to Wang Sai: "Take those girls to the restaurant we reserved earlier, I’ll settle the bill later, and send them back to school!"
Wang Sai wanted to ask where they were going, but Qi Ruison had already walked off with Shen Zui.
He didn’t pay him any attention, so Wang Sai scratched his head and didn’t dwell on it.
He quickly went back into the hospital to find Ou Xiaoning and the others.
Qi Ruison got in a car with Shen Zui, and although Shen Zui wanted to drive, Qi Ruison stopped him.
Qi Ruison said, "You’re the injured one, just be good, I’ll drive!"
Shen Zui didn’t insist and settled into the passenger seat.
As the car started, Qi Ruison glanced at Shen Zui and noticed he looked unwell, joking, "What? Did you hit another snag with that girl?"
Shen Zui pressed his lips together and said, "I’m really doubting now whether leaving back then was right or wrong?"
Qi Ruison frowned and said, "It’s funny you bring that up, I really don’t get it, weren’t you just testing the waters back then, how come you really left after all? It left me really confused!"
Shen Zui rubbed his brow with his hand, but didn’t want to talk further.
Qi Ruison didn’t want to poke at his wounds, so he just asked, "What are you planning to do next?"
Shen Zui’s thin lips moved slightly, saying, "I want to see Song Yansheng!"
Qi Ruison was taken aback, his grip on the steering wheel slackened with surprise.
He swallowed and said, "You...you can’t be serious? You want to see Xiao Chuan’s Second Uncle?"
Shen Zui nodded without hesitation: "Yes!"
"But what do you want from him? Even if he prevented you from returning to the country before, it was mostly because of Xiao Chuan’s affairs. Now that Xiao Chuan is gone and you’re back, he probably won’t trouble you anymore!"
Shen Zui stared ahead without speaking.
Qi Ruison saw he had no intention of changing his mind and finally sighed, saying, "Alright, but you know, Song Yansheng is in a different position now, it’s not easy for just anyone to meet with him. But isn’t your sister on good terms with Sister Qingyang? With Sister Qingyang’s help, meeting him shouldn’t be too hard..."
Shen Zui squinted at him: "You’re actually trying to use me to force my sister to show up, aren’t you?"
Qi Ruison quickly cleared his throat and said, "How...how could I? Besides, even if I did, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for you. Your sister is traveling with some stranger, can you be at ease? That’s your real sister!"
Shen Zui chuckled but said nothing.
Qi Ruison said, "Alright then, let’s settle on this, you contact Sister Qingyang through your sister to arrange a meeting with Song Yansheng... but there’s one thing you need to know first, Song Yansheng went abroad on a business trip a few days ago and hasn’t returned yet, so if you want to see him, you might have to wait a bit!"
