Ruan Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw Xu Siyan, not only because he hadn't seen him for a long time, but also because of his deep and serious expression.
Ruan Yi's mind turned quickly and he immediately thought of why he suddenly appeared here.
Thinking of this, Ruan Yi pursed his lips slightly, and when he was about to apologize, he was interrupted by his voice: "Who is hospitalized?"
Ruan Yi: "..."
According to Xu Siyan, he didn't know that the person in the hospital was his grandfather?
In other words, Wan Liu and Xu Moyan should not have contacted him, otherwise he would not have asked.
Ruan Yi was thinking about these things to himself and did not answer Xu Siyan's question for a long time.
Xu Siyan spoke again: "I asked you a question, didn't you hear me?"
Ruan Yi reacted immediately. She took a step forward, closed the door of the ward, and said patiently: "It's my grandpa. It snowed today. He went out to buy something and accidentally fell."
Xu Siyan glanced at the door of the ward, "Is it serious?"
Ruan Yi: "One thing, the doctor said it might be a cerebral infarction. Let's check again after waking up."
Xu Siyan nodded slightly.
Ruan Yi reciprocated: "You came to the hospital...to visit a patient?"
Xu Siyan: "Work."
His answer was concise and to the point, without a single extra word.
Ruan Yi realized that Xu Siyan probably didn't like her interfering too much, so he became quiet again.
When Ruan Yi was not looking for a topic, Xu Siyan would hardly take the initiative to talk to her, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward.
Xu Siyan also felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he took the initiative and said, "Have my parents arranged for a doctor?"
Ruan Yi: "Well, I'm really sorry, so I can only trouble them."
Xu Siyan: "It's not a big deal."
He didn't think it was troublesome. Besides, Wan Liu and Xu Moyan liked her enough that arranging a doctor was just a matter of words. However, Ruan Yi's attitude made people quite uncomfortable. "Is your grandpa awake?"
Ruan Yi shook his head, "Not yet."
As soon as she finished answering this question, her stomach suddenly growled twice.
The surroundings were too quiet, and the sound immediately reached Xu Siyan's ears. Ruan Yi felt extremely embarrassed, but could only pretend to be calm.
I originally thought that Xu Siyan would pretend that he didn't hear, but he unexpectedly asked for the first time: "You haven't eaten?"
Ruan Yi could only reply with a smile, "I was busy and forgot about it. Let's go now."
Xu Siyan: "There's no food in the cafeteria."
Ruan Yi took out his phone and looked at the time. It was almost three o'clock.
There is indeed no food.
When Ruan Yi was thinking about how to answer, Xu Siyan suddenly said: "I haven't eaten either, let's find a place to go together."
Ruan Yi was surprised in his heart, but he reacted after more than ten seconds.
She guessed that Xu Siyan had something to say to her, just like last time he offered to take her home.
So Ruan Yi nodded and agreed.
She followed Xu Siyan into the elevator and then to the basement.
When getting in the car, Ruan Yi consciously sat in the back row.
Xu Siyan didn't pay attention to her behavior. After starting the car, he asked casually, "Will the steak be okay?"
Ruan Yi: "I can do it."
Xu Siyan stepped on the accelerator and the car drove out of the basement.
Ruan Yi sat quietly in the back row, not disturbing him.
After Xu Siyan drove for a few minutes, his cell phone rang.
He didn't have time to put on headphones, and the call was automatically connected to the Bluetooth in the car, and his assistant's voice came through the stereo.
"Mr. Xu, the flight ticket to Berlin has been booked. We will leave early the day after tomorrow."
Xu Siyan: "Yeah."
He responded coldly, and then asked, "Are the things on the list ready?"
"It's ready, put it with your suitcase."
Xu Siyan: "I understand."
Ruan Yi had no intention of listening to Xu Siyan's call, but the sound was all over the car, making it difficult not to hear it.
Hearing the words "ticket to Berlin", Ruan Yi naturally thought of Jiang Mingzhu.
Then, Ruan Yi thought about the decision he made after Jiang Mingzhu’s wedding——
Perhaps, she didn't need to speak in person, Xu Siyan was already going to speak today.
Ruan Yi was mentally prepared and even planned to apologize to him.
She was silent all the way until Xu Siyan parked the car in front of the restaurant, and Ruan Yi followed him and got in the car again.
The two sat down at the booth by the window. After Xu Siyan ordered two dishes, he pushed the menu to Ruan Yi.
Ruan Yi also symbolically ordered a few dishes.
It wasn't the peak dining period, so the restaurant served food very quickly, and it didn't take long for all the food to be served.
But Ruan Yi didn't move for a long time.
Xu Siyan: "Why don't you eat?"
After his reminder, Ruan Yi picked up the fork——
In fact, she had been waiting for Xu Siyan to "talk" to her.
It was the first time for Ruan Yi to eat alone with Xu Siyan, and he felt a little restrained. Probably because he knew his disgust deep down in his heart, so nothing he did felt natural.
Ruan Yi looked at Xu Siyan and frowned: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Ruan Yi: "No."
She took a sip of water, took a deep breath, and then said to him, "I'm sorry."
Xu Siyan frowned even more: "What's wrong with you?"
His tone was confused and vaguely impatient. Ruan Yi knew that he didn't have much patience with her: "I'm sorry about you and Miss Jiang. It was my selfishness that caused you to separate. If you -"
"She and I have never been together." Ruan Yi only finished a third of what he was about to say when he was abruptly interrupted by Xu Siyan.
Ruan Yi's eyes flashed with surprise after hearing this. The look in her eyes when she looked at him turned into suspicion and distrust in Xu Siyan's eyes.
Xu Siyan's voice was colder than before: "I said I have never been with Jiang Mingzhu, don't you understand?"
Ruan Yi: "...I'm sorry, maybe I misunderstood. In short, what I mean is that I will not..."
"She doesn't like me." Xu Siyan interrupted Ruan Yi again, "What happened between me and her has nothing to do with you."
Ruan Yi was stunned for a few seconds and carefully thought about Xu Siyan's words.
He only said "she doesn't like me", but the other meaning was obvious - he liked Jiang Mingzhu.
Ruan Yi: "I don't want to interfere with your privacy."
Xu Siyan: "Jiang Mingzhu and I have never been together, and we will never be together in the future."
Ruan Yi: "...Yeah."
She choked up and wanted to take this moment to mention the divorce.
Just when he was thinking about how to speak, Xu Siyan suddenly said: "I will not cheat."
Ruan Yi: "..."
Xu Siyan: "Although I don't like you, we are husband and wife in name."
Ruan Yi understood what Xu Siyan meant.
He said that he would not cheat on her, not because he liked her very much, but because he was just following his own principles as a human being.
Ruan Yi couldn't tell how he felt now.
She thought she had no expectations for Xu Siyan, but when she really heard these words, she still felt discouraged.
Ruan Yi tried hard to adjust his emotions and said "thank you" to him.
As soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang.
Ruan Yi immediately picked it up, and Wan Liu's name appeared on the screen.
