"Yi Ze, my mother will be out soon. Don't let her misunderstand. She can't stand the stimulation." Chu Xinyi looked at Shen Yize pleadingly.
Hearing this, Shen Yi paused. He had never been so confident as now.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yize finally walked towards Lin Xi.
"How is your mother?" He asked with difficulty.
Lin Xi didn't look at him and said without warmth: "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, just go and care about the people you should care about."
Chu Xinyi's mother Jia Lan came out of the examination room and saw Shen Yi standing in front of Lin Xi and her daughter, and walked over.
"Yi Ze, are you a friend or a relative?"
Shen Yi coughed lightly and said quietly: "A friend."
Chu Xinyi saw her mother coming out and came over. When she heard Shen Yize's words, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "Mom, come sit with me over there and don't disturb Yi Ze talking to his friends."
Chu Xinyi took Jia Lan away in general.
Shen Yi licked his lips and whispered: "Aunt Jia cannot be emotionally stimulated."
"It doesn't matter, Mr. Shen, go get busy."
"Sister Wang, please go and see if the report is out."
Sun Miaomiao sent Sister Wang away. In this situation, it was better to leave some dignity to Lin Xi.
Sister Wang felt that the atmosphere was not right, so she wisely got up and left.
"Lin Xi, mother and daughter..."
"This is your business, not mine."
Shen Yi wanted to say something that Lin Xi knew, but she didn't want to hear it, especially she didn't want him to say it in front of Liang Rumei, although she couldn't hear anything.
Lin Xi raised her head and smiled lightly, met his deep gaze, and said softly: "Mr. Shen, please, I won't delay you from spending time with your family."
Shen Yi's brows were straight and he felt awkward as he had never felt before.
"Xiaoxi, the report is out, shall we go?"
Sister Wang waved to her with the report.
Lin Xi and Sun Miaomiao stood up, helped Liang Rumei and left together, without even looking at Shen Yize as they left.
Sun Miaomiao was so angry that she took two steps and came back. She gritted her teeth and cursed: "Shen Yize, you are really not a man. Your wife turns into a friend. No one can play better than you. How could Lin Xi be blind and fall into your trap?" It’s been on my body for so many years.”
The aloof leader of the Shen Group had never been scolded like this before, but he couldn't say a word right now.
Sun Miaomiao and Sister Wang sent Liang Rumei back to the ward, and Lin Xi took the report to Dr. Zhang's office.
Lin Xi's eyes were red when she came out of the doctor's office. Liang Rumei's kidney failure was getting worse and worse, causing irreversible damage, which was an early manifestation of uremia.
In the corridor back to the ward, I met Shen Yize who had just come out of the doctor's office.
Lin Xi sniffed and walked past him firmly, completely ignoring his expression of wanting to speak.
"Lin Xi, your mother?" Shen Yize finally asked.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, just take good care of your people."
Lin Xi's steps were firm and her back straight. The only thing she could do now was to retain her dignity and not let herself cry in front of Shen Yize.
Now that she has decided to let go, her vulnerability cannot be exposed in front of him. He is not her support, not in the past and never in the future.
She just felt vaguely sorry for the two little ones in her belly. It was her fault for not finding a good father who loved them.
Lin Xi and Sun Miaomiao stayed with Liang Rumei in the hospital until five o'clock in the afternoon. Sun Miaomiao urged Lin Xi several times because he was afraid that it would be dangerous for Lin Xi to drive at night.
On the way back, Lin Xi was still driving. Although the speed was still slow, he was not as nervous as when he came here.
Back at Yenan Villa, Shen Yi had already arrived home. When he heard a car driving into the courtyard, he poked his head out of the study window in confusion.
If it weren't for being an acquaintance, Mrs. Liu wouldn't know how to open the door. Shen Yi was surprised to see Lin Xi getting out of the car. Looking at the woman downstairs, he lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.
When Lin Xi arrived in the living room, Shen Yi was coming down from upstairs.
"Did you buy the car?"
He saw Lin Xi calm and composed, and no longer hesitated to speak in Beishan Sanatorium.
"Yeah, traveling without a car is too inconvenient. I can't stand in the cold wind and watch the black Bentley pass by me."
Lin Xi spoke in a low voice, still with her unique softness. As she spoke, she took off her coat and washed her hands to prepare for dinner.
"Lin Xi, I told you the day before yesterday that Xinyi and her mother are my responsibility. This is what I owe them."
Lin Xi stopped and turned to look at him. She originally thought he had something else to say, but he didn't say anything.
This was the first time Shen Yize talked about what happened between him and Chu Xinyi, but he only said this.
As for the reason, he didn't say anything more. No one except the Shen family knew about it. It was a taboo topic in the Shen family and it was the past that Shen Yize didn't want to think about the most.
Seeing that he had no intention of continuing, Lin Xi said coldly, "I'm not interested in the story about Mr. Shen and your little lover."
After saying that, she sat down at the dining table and started eating. She really had a good appetite these days and got hungry quickly.
Shen Yi sat down opposite her with a sullen face. Seeing her eating her meal carelessly, she felt irritated.
During the entire dinner, Lin Xi did not look at Shen Yize or say another word to him.
After eating, she went to the study room, set the alarm clock for 9:30, and started her work. On Monday, she would go to Xu Weiran to discuss the plan, and she had to go over what she had already set.
Shen Yi went upstairs, thinking that Lin Xi had returned to the bedroom. He stared at the closed bedroom door for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief and went to the study.
As soon as he sat down in the study, Qin Chuan called.
"Mr. Shen, we really don't have a clue about what happened at Yunxi Villa. We can't see anything unusual from the whole process. It's just that we know that Miss Chu did have some conflicts with my wife, but Miss Chu didn't have the chance to take action."
Qin Chuan finished speaking in one breath and waited for the boss to scold him. Nothing was found in two days. It was really difficult to explain.
"I see."
There was nothing unusual in the boss's voice. Qin Chuan was confused, so he accepted it calmly?
Qin Chuan did not find out that Lin Xi was the screenwriter of "Long Time in Chang'an". This was because Lin Xi and Xingyao had signed a confidentiality agreement, and Xingyao was not allowed to disclose her true identity to the public.
Xu Weiran also expressed her understanding of this. She just wanted to write with peace of mind and did not want to be disturbed by attention, so she made this clear to the relevant staff and artists before reading the script.
Qin Chuan hung up the phone, still unable to believe that he hadn't been scolded.
The next day, not long after breakfast, the old lady of the Lin family called.
Lin Xi looked at the word "grandma" on her phone, her eyebrows pounding.
She hasn't seen the old lady again since the last time she made trouble in Shen's Hall. Things have been going smoothly with the old lady for the past half month. What will happen if I call her at this time?
Could it be that she still had objections to the six million that Lin Bin transferred to her?
Lin Xi was not worried about Lin Bin telling his family about the photos. As long as she and Shen Yize had not divorced, he would not dare to spread them everywhere.
She didn't want to answer the old lady's call, but she couldn't bear the old lady's calls, which made Lin Xi unable to avoid it.
