Last night, she even whispered to him that she was bored and wanted to sneak out of the hospital to go out and have some fun before coming back.
Professor Xiang prescribed some more medication to assist in the treatment of Xi Jia's eyes.
After getting the medicine, Mo Yushen put the pills in a candy jar and took it back to the ward.
Xi Jia is still writing a script. Today, she was full of inspiration and wrote two thousand words in just over half an hour.
A figure approached from the doorway. Xi Jia looked up and said, "Husband."
Mo Yushen poured her some warm water, turned her swivel chair around, and [squinted].
Xi Jia looked at his lips: "Infatuated?"
Mo Yushen gently scraped her eyelids shut with his fingertips. Xi Jia guessed: "Squinting?"
The next second, Mo Yushen poured a few pills into her mouth.
It can be chewed and has a sour taste.
Xi Jia: "What?"
Mo Yushen typed: 【Magical Energy Candy Beans.】
Xi Jia smiled, gave him a hard kiss on the lips, turned around and continued typing. She had only typed a few words when Mo Yushen picked her up.
"Hey, I still have to work."
Mo Yushen carried her to the bed, saying, "Play chess with me, I'm bored."
Xi Jia: "I don't know Go or chess."
Mo Yushen: "Do you still remember the Chinese chess game you played as a child?"
I do know how to do that.
Mo Yushen put down the folding table on the bed and found the chess set he had prepared beforehand. He also sat cross-legged on the bed, facing Xi Jia, and the two began to play chess.
The nurse knocked on the door and came in to take Xi Jia's blood pressure and temperature.
She discovered that Mo Yushen and Xi Jia always had new ways to have fun each time they came. While others found accompanying someone in bed boring, he thoroughly enjoyed it.
After the measurement was completed, the nurse recorded the information and informed Mo Yushen that Xi Jia would begin taking medication and undergoing treatment starting tomorrow.
Mo Yushen nodded, indicating that he understood. Professor Xiang had already told him about it.
After the nurse left, Xi Jia played a few more games of chess with Mo Yushen. Worried that she might get bored playing chess all the time, Mo Yushen took out a book and said, "Read it to me."
The sun was shining brightly today. The two of them got out of bed and went to the window. Mo Yushen held Xi Jia in his arms, and she read to him, reading "The Rest of My Life".
To reduce Xi Jia's computer time, Mo Yushen tried various ways to distract her. After playing chess, she read for over an hour.
Mo Yushen suggested that since the sun was shining brightly outside, they should go for a walk.
The wind wasn't strong today, and quite a few patients came out for a walk.
Mo Yushen led Xi Jia downstairs and asked, "Want me to sneak out and play?"
Xi Jia: "If I wear a hospital gown and go out on the street, I'll be surrounded by people staring at me."
Mo Yushen: [Wait for me, I'll go upstairs and get your equipment.]
He returned to the hospital building.
While waiting for the elevator, I ran into Chairman Mo.
Mo Lian's mother is also staying in the VIP ward here. Chairman Mo wasn't here to take care of her; he came to check on her after finishing his work in the morning. Actually, Mo Lian's mother is fine. The doctor told her to go home and rest, but she said she felt more at ease staying in the hospital, in case she had a heart attack and needed timely treatment.
He knew she was angry because he hadn't stood up for Mo Lian when the Ji family was putting pressure on him.
Mo Yushen calmly withdrew his gaze and looked towards the elevator door.
Chairman Mo took the initiative to start a conversation, "How is Jiajia?"
Mo Yushen didn't give any reaction.
The elevator arrived, and the doors slowly opened. After the person inside came out, Chairman Mo stepped in. He pressed the floor button and then the open button to prevent the elevator doors from closing, waiting for Mo Yushen to come in.
Mo Yushen had no intention of sharing an elevator with him.
Chairman Mo opened his mouth several times before finally uttering, "Take good care of your mother."
Mo Yushen gave a cold sneer.
Mo Dong released the button, and the door closed quickly.
When Mr. Mo arrived at the ward, the caregiver was comforting Mo Lian's mother, who was crying. The wastebasket was already full of wads of tissues.
When the caregiver saw Mr. Mo arrive, she made an excuse to leave the ward and closed the door tightly.
Chairman Mo didn't sit by the bed; instead, he sat on the sofa.
Mo Lian's mother's tears fell again. "We've been married for over twenty years, and I never imagined you'd still be wary of me. I've been in the hospital for so many days, and you haven't stayed with me even once. I wondered what you were busy with, but it turns out you've been busy transferring all your investments to Mo Yushen."
As she spoke, she let out a few self-deprecating laughs.
She had only just found out. The lawyer was handling the relevant legal procedures for the gift. At that moment, her heart sank.
The market value of the shares in the Mo Group held by Chairman Mo is roughly the same as the market value of his personal investments.
Mo Lian's mother never imagined that he would give all his private investments to Mo Yushen, leaving Mo Lian with nothing.
"Did Qin Sulan come looking for you? What kind of spell did she cast on you?" Mo Lian's mother was still unwilling to give up. "Don't forget, your private investments are also our joint property! You gave them away without my consent, and I have the right to take them back!"
Since it's already so meaningless, she no longer needs to worry about the so-called marital bond.
Chairman Mo: "Even if you divorce me, the shares I gave to Mo Lian will be enough to pay for your divorce property division and compensation."
Mo Lian's mother froze, tears still streaming down her face. She stared at the man before her, a chill running down her spine. Selfishness, ruthlessness, and cold-heartedness were laid bare in his eyes.
——
Mo Yushen then received a message from his mother, Qin Sulan: "Is Jiajia nearby? Call me back when it's convenient."
Mo Yushen had just reached the door with Xi Jia's cardigan when he handed it back to his mother.
Qin Sulan kept it brief: "Your father's lawyer just called me and said that some gift procedures and equity transfers require your signature. Your father has given you all his personal investments. Mom respects your decision."
Mo Yushen: "I don't care about a single penny of his. Go back to that lawyer later, and let him give his property to whomever he wants."
Qin Sulan: "Okay, Mom understands."
After a pause, Mo Yushen continued, "He wants to use money to wipe away his past mistakes and make himself feel better. There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Qin Sulan also felt guilty, and there were some things she couldn't say. She changed the subject, "How was Jiajia today?"
Mo Yushen: "Not bad, I'll take her out for a stroll."
Qin Sulan urged him to hurry up, as the sun was shining brightly outside.
When Mo Yushen got downstairs, he didn't see Xi Jia. He sent her a message: "Where are you?" Only after sending the message did he realize that she hadn't brought her phone.
Suddenly, he felt a tightness around his waist as someone hugged him from behind.
"Guess who I am."
Mo Yushen turned around and hugged her. "Where were you just now?"
Xi Jia: "The energy candy you gave me actually has an invisibility function." She laughed.
Mo Yushen put the cardigan in his hand on her.
Xi Jia: "But the pants look like hospital gowns."
Mo Yushen straightened her hospital gown top and tucked it into her pants. He squatted down, rolled up her trouser legs to reveal her fair and beautiful ankles. He then took out sunglasses from his pocket and put them on her, saying, "This way, it won't look like you."
Xi Jia looked at the hospital gown from head to toe. It looked like a jumpsuit, and even had a fashionable vibe.
Mo Yushen put on sunglasses as well. He held Xi Jia's wrist, which was wearing a hospital bracelet, and the two walked slowly toward the hospital entrance.
Mo Yushen wondered if today was a case of bad luck. Before he even reached the door, he ran into an acquaintance.
Yu An saw Xi Jia from afar and excitedly shook Zhou Mingqian's arm, "Director Zhou, Director Zhou, look, Sister Xi Jia is right ahead."
Zhou Mingqian frowned, his stomach upset. Hearing the name Xi Jia, he looked up. From her appearance, there was no sign that her condition had worsened; she still possessed the same aloofness and pride he had felt when they first met.
Yu An, disregarding her boss's still-stomach ache, practically ran to Mo Yushen and Xi Jia, "Mr. Mo, hello, long time no see."
Xi Jia is deaf and doesn't recognize her, so she can only treat Xi Jia as a stranger and doesn't go to see her specifically.
Mo Yushen nodded. He was powerless to speak to Xi Jia. He called Yu An on his phone: "Sorry, I can't chat. Xi Jia thought I couldn't speak."
Yu An was stunned for a moment, as if she understood, but was still a little confused. She asked with concern, "Sister Xi Jia, how is the situation now?"
Mo Yushen: [Just admitted to the hospital, treatment will begin tomorrow, details unknown.]
What Yu An least wanted to see was the last three words of that sentence.
Zhou Mingqian approached, "President Mo."
Mo Yushen shook hands with him briefly.
Wearing sunglasses, Xi Jia could freely observe the two people in front of her, silently sizing them up.
Mo Yushen didn't exchange many pleasantries and left with Xi Jia in his hand.
Zhou Mingqian wanted to turn around, but then gave up. There was nothing there.
Yu An turned around and watched their backs until they walked out the door and disappeared from sight.
"Xi Jia's condition may not be good." Yu An sighed before turning his gaze away.
Unconsciously, Zhou Mingqian pressed harder on the stomach than before.
Yu An explained why Mo Yushen hadn't spoken to him earlier: "President Mo pretended to be sick in front of Sister Xi Jia, pretending he couldn't speak."
One couldn't hear, and the other couldn't speak. This relieved Xi Jia of her psychological burden.
Zhou Mingqian walked towards the outpatient building, with Yu An following closely behind. She had previously inquired with Jiang Qin and learned that Xi Jia was staying at this hospital and was not divorced from Mo Yushen.
Director Zhou has had stomach pain for almost two months. He has visited several hospitals, but they haven't been able to find anything wrong. The doctors advised him to adjust his diet and keep warm.
She increasingly felt that perhaps one day when Sister Xi Jia recovered, Director Zhou's stomach pain would heal itself. He was probably just being psychological.
I wanted to apologize, but I had no chance. Suppressing my feelings for so long became an illness.
Yu An turned his head and said, "Director Zhou, the doctors at this hospital are good. If this visit is effective, we'll come here every week from now on."
Zhou Mingqian glanced at her and said, "If you say less, my stomach won't hurt so much."
