Chapter 204: Chapter 204

gulped, always feeling that the boss was angry, but something didn’t seem quite right.

Respectfully said ’no more’, and the next second, the call was cut off from the other side, cold and ruthless to the extreme.

After hanging up, Rong Zhi took off the Bluetooth headset and tossed it aside, habitually reaching for cigarettes but ended up with a handful of candies, her temper surged instantly, mentally poking Bai Su hundreds of times.

Saying he likes her while also wanting to blow her head off, sometimes she really wants to just reveal her identity and see Bai Su’s frustrated face, wondering what he would do then.

Crushed the lollipop in her mouth, mint flavor spread, she squinted slightly, her mood suddenly lifted a bit.

Arriving at the hospital, Rong Zhi stood at the entrance and saw He Songzhi inside chatting with Aunt Xue.

Her gaze fell on He Songzhi’s face, the black in her eyes had faded considerably, leaving only a faint trace, from her voice, she still seemed spirited.

Fingers slightly curled, she lowered her eyes.

The slender, cold white hand exposed outside the sleeve, clear blue veins on the back of the hand, several dark red needle marks like plum blossoms neatly dotted on the veins, looking somewhat sinister.

The antidote developed contained different ingredients, some could be injected directly, while others needed to be slowly injected like an IV drip; in order to develop a better antidote, she injected every twelve hours.

The efficacy of the No.1 reagent was beyond expectations, its counterattack speed faster than she anticipated.

Pulled the sleeve down to cover those needle marks, Rong Zhi pushed the door open and entered.

Upon hearing the sound, both people immediately turned back, He Songzhi smiled, "Baby."

Rong Zhi slightly lifted the corner of her lips, "Mom."

Aunt Xue smiled, "Since Mr. Rong is here, I’ll go back and cook."

Rong Zhi nodded slightly to her, turned sideways to let her out.

He Songzhi glimpsed the bag in the young girl’s hand, puzzled, "Baby, what did you buy?"

"Just a bit of food."

Rong Zhi sat by the hospital bed, opened the bag, took out the strawberries, washed them clean, and then cut off the tops with a fruit knife, leaving only the sweetest part.

He Songzhi liked strawberries, but back in Luoxia Town, while the Rong Family’s two children had to go to school, her husband became a burden, and supporting the family wasn’t enough, let alone buying extras like these.

"Want to try?" Rong Zhi stuck a piece with a toothpick, offered it to He Songzhi’s mouth.

He Songzhi opened her mouth to eat it, the sweet and sour taste exploded in her mouth, her eyes slightly paused, blinked a few times, and then suddenly lowered her head, tears started falling like a broken string.

Rong Zhi’s hand was still in midair, seeing this, she grabbed a tissue, carefully wiped her tears, furrowed her brows, and gently asked, "What’s wrong? Too sour?"

Tsk, what a seller, claiming it’s the sweetest in the shop, such deceit.

"No, no," He Songzhi’s voice was teary, she sniffed, telling herself not to cry, but the result was even more tears.

Rong Zhi quietly sighed, she sat on the hospital bed, wrapped her arm around He Songzhi’s overly thin shoulder, drawing her into her embrace, chin rubbing the woman’s hair top, whispered, "It’s okay, no one else is here, if you want to cry, just cry."

He Songzhi seemed to have suddenly found a haven, leaned into Rong Zhi’s arms and cried hard, turning all the suppressed emotions, constant control, into sobs.

Hearing the cries, the two people stopped.

Jiang Gujun glanced at the ward, hesitatingly, "Mr. Su, should we go in..."

Bai Su silently looked into the ward through the window, after a while, he turned around, "Let’s wait."

Let the mother and daughter talk first.

Inside the ward, He Songzhi cried until she was hiccuping.

Rong Zhi patted her back, discreetly pressed her fingers against her back.

Not long after, He Songzhi gradually calmed down, exhausted after crying, as the tension eased, she leaned into Rong Zhi’s embrace and fell asleep deeply.

Rong Zhi quietly held her without moving, occasionally brushing her back, sometimes lowering her head to touch He Songzhi’s forehead.

Until the ward door was knocked, her sleepy eyes suddenly opened, looking towards the door being pushed open.

Unexpectedly fell asleep.

The tall, jade-like man walked in with light steps, soundless upon landing, his well-shaped fingers bending to point at He Songzhi, then glanced at her, mouthed silently: ’Step outside?’

Rong Zhi slightly lowered her head, hmming, placed He Songzhi back on the bed, only then realized after holding He Songzhi for so long, half of her body was numb.

With no expression on her face, she stood still for two seconds, composedly left the ward.

Down to the first floor lobby, the man suddenly turned his head, charming eyes gathered with deep meaning, chuckled lightly and asked, "Hungry? Shall we go eat something?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⁂fire.net
