Hey! The CEO who just scolded me met someone on a blind date.

Hospital ward.

As soon as Leng Mengmeng pushed open the door of the ward, she heard crying. She frowned and walked in with a very bad look on her face.

"Gu Manyao, if you cry again, I will make you cry for three days and three nights. Do you believe it?" Leng Mengmeng said in a cold voice.

Gu Manyao held Su Zimu's hand, not having any extra hands to wipe away her tears, letting them flow freely, "I am really sad, I am not acting."

Leng Mengmeng sneered, "You are really stupid and sad. If you hadn't been a demon, this wouldn't have happened."

"How could I have known this would happen?" Gu Manyao cried even harder. "Besides, I already know I was wrong. My brother has already punished me. I will be banned for three years. After three years, my fans will have forgotten me."

"You have been forgotten by your fans. My Mu Mu almost lost his life." Jiang Yi, who was sitting next to him peeling an apple, started to speak.

"Okay, let's not talk about it now that it's over." Su Zimu said with a smile in his eyes while lying on the bed.

"You're too soft-hearted." Leng Mengmeng sat on the sofa angrily.

Su Zimu laughed and said, "Why, you're not even letting me, your patient, go?"

"I don't dare." Leng Mengmeng said, "I just feel scared."

Hearing this, all three of them were silent.

"From what you said, Ye Jingshu is indeed a ruthless person. She has no intention of letting you go. The explosives are her backup." Jiang Yi said as he handed a small piece of apple to Su Zimu.

"Who said it wasn't?" Leng Mengmeng took over the conversation. "In fact, it would be a dead end no matter which thread you cut. If she hadn't found her conscience in the end, I guess you two would have been the only ones to burn paper for us on Qingming Festival."

"Why did she give up in the end?" Jiang Yi asked.

Leng Mengmeng: "Who knows?"

"By the way, where is Huaizhou? Why didn't he come with you?" Su Zimu wanted to change the heavy topic.

Leng Mengmeng looked disdainful, "He is busy making a loving meal for you. He asked me to bring some clean clothes first. He will be here soon. Don't miss him."

Su Zimu looked shy and said, "I don't have any, I just asked casually."

"I never thought that President Jiang can cook." Jiang Yi said.

"I didn't expect that either." Leng Mengmeng agreed.

Gu Manyao stood up and said, "Then I'll go first."

"Please stay a little longer." Su Zimu tried to persuade him to stay.

Gu Manyao avoided his gaze and said, "I will come to see you when Brother Huaizhou is not around." She didn't want to see Jiang Huaizhou's murderous look.

Gu Manyao left, and the three of them chatted for a while before Jiang Huaizhou pushed the door open.

Putting the thermos aside, Jiang Huaizhou walked in and said, "It's almost time, you guys go back first."

Leng Mengmeng stood up from the sofa in a carefree manner, but Jiang Yi refused to do so, "We still have a lot to talk about."

"Well, let's talk for a while." Su Zimu agreed.

"The doctor told you to rest more and talk less, as it's not good for your wound to heal."

Hearing Jiang Huaizhou say this, Su Zimu couldn't insist any longer, Jiang Yi stood up, "Then I'll come to see you another day, you should rest more and get better soon."

After the two left, the ward suddenly became quiet.

Jiang Huaizhou served the soup first and tested the temperature. Su Zimu reached out to take it and said, "It smells so good. What kind of soup is that?"

"Mullet soup. Grandpa said that mullet is good for wound healing." He said this without handing over the bowl. Instead, he picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup and brought it to Su Zimu's mouth.

Su Zimu nodded, "Actually, I can do it myself..."

"obedient."

He insisted, and Su Zimu stopped refusing. He took a sip from the spoon next to his mouth and it was indeed very delicious.

Soon, half of the bowl of fish soup was gone, and Su Zimu said, "How is Nic doing at Grandpa's place? Did he not disturb him?"

Jiang Huaizhou put down the bowl and took the tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth. Su Zimu took it and said, "I can do it myself."

Jiang Huaizhou did not force him and said, "The two grandfathers like him and wish he would bother them more."

Su Zimu nodded. Nic was always good at pleasing others, and since they were a generation apart, it was inevitable that he would be pampered.

Jiang Huaizhou put the food on the table again and pretended to feed her, but Su Zimu refused to do so. "I can do it. Don't make me look like a useless person."

She was pretending to be angry, but unexpectedly the person opposite her seemed to be really angry. He put the spoon in her hand, but his face did not show any emotion.

Su Zimu: ??? Stop pulling?

Fortunately, the wound was on the left side, and the right hand was not affected at all. Su Zimu picked up a piece of shrimp and took a bite. "Well, this shrimp is really well cooked, fresh, tender and sweet in the mouth."

Jiang Huaizhou said nothing.

"Did you secretly learn cooking? Your cooking level is comparable to that of Michelin chefs." Su Zimu continued to flatter him.

“The shrimps were bought outside.”

Su Zimu almost choked to death with this sentence. She flattered the horse but failed. She changed the subject subtly, "This mushroom is not bad, but a little salty. It must be made by you."

She teased him on purpose, but Jiang Huaizhou didn't take the opportunity to do so. He just hummed and was obviously in a bad mood.

Su Zimu put down the spoon in his hand, reached out and held Jiang Huaizhou's hand, "Are you angry?"

Jiang Huaizhou did not deny it, "Yeah."

"Don't be so stingy. I'm so happy that you're willing to cook for me. Even if it tastes bad, it's delicious to me. Besides, it's not that bad."

She pulled his hand and shook it, as if she was acting coquettishly, and Jiang Huaizhou then shifted his gaze from elsewhere to her face.

It didn't matter that he saw it, but Su Zimu panicked. At this moment, Jiang Huaizhou's eyes were red and sparkling, as if he was about to cry at any time.

"What's wrong? I'm fine. This is..." Su Zimu raised his hand to wipe away his tears, but he didn't expect his hand to be held tightly by him.

"I didn't cry."

"Your eyes are obviously red." Su Zimu had never seen him like this before. He felt anxious and tears quickly gathered in his eyes, but he tried hard not to cry.

"What happened?"

Seeing that he was silent, Su Zimu guessed, "It's normal for you to be sad. After all, you grew up together, and now it ends like this. Anyone would sigh. However, you chose your own path, so you can't blame others, and you don't need to blame yourself."

Jiang Huaizhou pursed his beautiful lips, lowered his eyes and didn't look at her. He just held her hand quietly, and looked at her again after a while: "I am really upset about Xiaoshu's death. But in this matter, you are the biggest victim. It is also because of these two things that I feel more and more that I am not omnipotent. I can't even protect you..."

Jiang Huaizhou was talking to himself. Su Zimu had never seen him like this before. In her impression, he was always aloof, calm, and at ease. He would never show his fear or weakness, as if he was born without fear and without weaknesses.

"I'm scared, afraid that you will leave me again, afraid that Nic will be hurt because of me..."

If you are covered in armor, you will be fearless and invincible, but if you have someone you love, you will have a soft spot and a weakness.

"It's okay, everything will be fine." Su Zimu's face was already in tears, and she reached out to cover his face. "This time, Nic and I will never abandon you. We will always be together, and be very happy together."
