There's no reason to be unhappy either.
Si Moshen had been receiving treatment here for two weeks.
Maybe the daily life was just too dull and boring, which made him unhappy.
"I'm sorry. I might just miss home a bit," Jiang Zhirou said softly with her head down, showing no sign of joy or sorrow on her face.
Si Moshen watched her expression and felt a faint ache in his heart.
He had seen such an expression on Jiang Zhirou's face once before.
The last time she suddenly returned to Yuelan from the imperial capital, she had the same look on her face.
Si Moshen wanted to ask if she had recalled something, but seeing that she didn't seem to intend to bring up those things, he finally held his tongue.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!"
Suddenly, an excited female voice came from downstairs.
Si Moshen looked out of the window. His eyes flashed, and then he turned his gaze to the woman beside him. "Zhi Zhi, it's snowing."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou turned to look out of the window.
In an instant, the trees outside were covered with a thin layer of white.
Si Moshen's voice sounded behind her again.
"Let's go home."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou was stunned for a moment, then she shook her head and refused Si Moshen's suggestion without thinking.
"The doctor said you haven't fully recovered yet and need to be observed for a while. Don't go home early for my sake. Your health is the most important thing."
Si Moshen didn't say anything. He just silently glanced at Uncle Shen.
Uncle Shen immediately understood and looked at Jiang Zhirou.
"Miss Zhirou, actually the doctor said it's best for the Third Master to go home for recuperation now."
"Really?" Jiang Zhirou cast a suspicious look back and forth between the two of them, doubting Uncle Shen's words.
Uncle Shen rolled his eyes and said with a faint smile, "If Miss Zhirou wants to stay in Country B for a while longer, that's okay too."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou asked uncertainly again, "Can Si Laosan really be discharged from the hospital?"
Uncle Shen nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
"Yes."
Si Moshen's body recovered much better than expected. As long as he had regular check - ups and took proper measures in the future, there would basically be no major problems.
After resting for more than half a month, he still hadn't received any news from Chen Yu'an, which made him feel faintly uneasy.
Only by returning to Yuelan could he act more conveniently.
After Si Moshen's act of hiding his condition, Jiang Zhirou didn't really trust these two people now. She found Si Moshen's attending doctor and only agreed to return to Yuelan after confirming that he could be discharged from the hospital.
...
Meanwhile, in the imperial capital.
Ruikang Hospital.
"Aunt Jiang, don't worry too much. Brother Chiyu will surely wake up," Lu Wenxi stood beside the hospital bed and whispered to comfort Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu's gaze fell on the person sleeping quietly on the hospital bed.
She and Chi Weiguo had just returned from abroad when they received the news that Chi Yu had an accident.
Ji Bai said that he had gone into shock due to excessive blood loss. The person had been rescued, but he wasn't sure when he would wake up.
Half a month had passed, and Chi Yu still showed no sign of waking up.
Jiang Shu's eyes were slightly red. She tightly held Chi Yu's hand outside the quilt.
"Aunt Jiang, Uncle Chi will be here soon. You should go back and rest first. Brother Chiyu and I will guard here with Ji Bai. If Brother Chiyu wakes up and sees you looking haggard, he will surely feel heartache."
Jiang Shu originally wanted to refuse, but when she heard the last sentence, she changed her mind and slightly loosened her hold on Chi Yu's hand.
Yes, she couldn't let Chi Yu see her so haggard when he woke up, or he would surely feel heartache again.
She knew her child best. Although Chi Yu was a boy, he had always been soft - hearted and considerate since childhood. He would not only feel heartache but also surely blame himself when he saw her.
Jiang Shu took a deep breath, looked at the person on the hospital bed reluctantly, then slowly stood up from the chair and let go of his hand.
She turned to look at Lu Wenxi.
"Wenxi, then I'll have to trouble you with Xiaoyu."
"Aunt Jiang, you're welcome. Brother Chiyu is just like my own brother. There's no such thing as trouble. You just go back and rest well. Don't worry about this place."
Hearing this, Jiang Shu's nose twitched again. "It's Xiaoyu's fortune to have good friends like you."
Looking at Jiang Shu like this, Lu Wenxi also felt a bit sad.
She didn't have much contact with Jiang Shu, but Chi Weiguo's love for his wife was well - known in the imperial capital. She used to see Jiang Shu looking delicate and calm.
Now she seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
Lu Wenxi couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
She sent Jiang Shu downstairs and then returned to the ward.
As soon as the elevator reached the designated floor, Lu Wenxi stepped out of the elevator. Just then, a group of medical staff quickly ran past her and turned into Chi Yu's ward.
...
As soon as the car drove into the gate of Yuelan Manor, Jiang Zhirou in the back row kept craning her neck to look outside, as if looking for something.
Si Moshen beside her watched her little actions and unconsciously pursed his lips. A look of dejection flashed across his eyes.
Soon, the car stopped steadily outside the villa.
The maid immediately stepped forward, took out the suitcases of several people from the trunk and was about to walk into the house.
Suddenly, she was stopped by Jiang Zhirou.
"Have there been any guests at home recently?"
Hearing this, the maid shook her head blankly. "No."
As soon as the words were out, a look of disappointment quickly flashed across Jiang Zhirou's face. The maid looked at her in confusion and asked carefully, "Miss, do you have guests coming?"
"No," Jiang Zhirou immediately denied.
Her performance was a bit too nervous. Uncle Shen and Si Moshen both cast their gazes on her.
In an instant, she seemed to have been exposed. She hurriedly explained.
"Si Laosan went to Country B in a hurry. There must be a lot of things in the company that he didn't have time to deal with. I'm worried that some of his business partners might come to Yuelan to find him. I don't want to delay any important matters..."
Jiang Zhirou's voice became smaller and smaller. She even thought her words were full of loopholes.
Without looking at Si Moshen and Uncle Shen behind her, she walked quickly into the house while saying, "I'll go upstairs first!"
Watching her fleeing back, a ripple appeared in Si Moshen's dark eyes.
In an instant, he suppressed his emotions. He turned to look at Uncle Shen beside him and asked, "Haven't we received any news from Chen Yu'an?"
Hearing this, Uncle Shen's face also changed. "The people we sent there have all returned safely. According to them, Chen Yu'an suddenly entered the mansion at that time and hasn't been seen coming out since."
Si Moshen's face darkened. "Wasn't the plan just to get the information and leave?"
"That was the original plan... but..." Uncle Shen hesitated.
By now, even the dullest person could tell that Chen Yu'an didn't just want to get the information.
Si Moshen's face looked even uglier than before.
Although he didn't want to admit it, the fact was that Chi Yu was really right.
