The nurse noticed Lu Beichuan's silent appearance and was worried that she would be discovered while chatting away. She called out with a trembling voice, "Mr. Lu..."

Lu Beichuan didn't even glance at her, he picked up the medical record on the nurse's desk and started reading it.

"How is An Jianguo doing recently?"

The nurse immediately replied, "It's still the same as before. He's unconscious and not responding at all. You've given us instructions, so we won't make any mistakes."

Lu Beichuan closed An Jianguo's case file, which had almost the same pages on every page.

"Okay. Do what needs to be done."

Then Youyou glanced at her and said, "Stop talking about things you shouldn't say."

The nurse was stunned.

Something I shouldn’t have said?

Didn't she just report An Jianguo's situation truthfully? Just two sentences. Is there anything else she shouldn't have said in these two sentences?

However, the nurse did not dare to risk her life to ask Lu Beichuan back, so she could only nod quickly: "Yes."

-

This year's winter came particularly suddenly. It felt like late autumn, but the temperature dropped so quickly that it was time to wrap ourselves in cotton clothes.

After punching the clock out from get off work, An Xia wrapped herself in three layers of cotton-padded jacket and a thick, long scarf.

When winter came, her commute to work became more difficult.

I was frozen stiff every time I rode my bike.

Lu Beichuan looked dimly at the woman who was wrapped in something bigger than the small pink desk.

"If you can say something nice, I can consider taking you to and from get off work every day for free."

Before, it was autumn and she still had the backbone and a way out to be stubborn.

This winter was so cold that Lu Beichuan didn't believe that her bones could be harder than the telephone poles covered with a layer of ice outside.

An Xia rolled her eyes silently, ignored him, pushed her office chair into place, picked up her bag and prepared to go downstairs.

One is not wanting to care.

The second reason is because I don’t dare to care.

That day, I used something with that effect to take a bath without knowing why, which led to the fight that night. Whenever An Xia thinks about that incident now, she feels indescribable discomfort in her heart.

He was even more afraid of being discovered by Lu Beichuan.

If he knew that I was the one who triggered the fight that night, or that I was the one who initiated the fight that night, he would laugh to death. With his petty personality, he would definitely bring this up every day.

Lu Beichuan frowned.

She is really tough enough.

The temperature tonight was approaching zero degrees. She was still hanging on to her old car.

Lu Beichuan stood up, put on his coat and was about to go out when the phone on the table rang. He picked it up.

"grandmother."

"I heard Xia Xia works for you. How are you guys doing lately? Did Xia Xia still mention divorce?"

The old lady didn't know that Lu Beichuan had agreed to divorce An Xia if she paid back 20 million yuan, and she was just hoping that they could reconcile.

Lu Beichuan frowned helplessly, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

The old lady sensed the silence and suddenly understood.

"Useless guy."

Lu Beichuan: “…”

Why didn't she say that An Xia was stubborn?

"Give the phone to Xia Xia, I want to talk to her."

Lu Beichuan raised his eyebrows and immediately quickened his pace to follow him out.

The elevator door opened, and as An Xia walked in, she was pulled back by a force.

She frowned and looked angrily at the person who did it, and Lu Beichuan handed her the phone reluctantly.

"Grandma is looking for you."

She looked so arrogant that she almost said directly, "If grandma hadn't been looking for you, I wouldn't have come out to call you."

Only then did An Xia calm down and answer the phone.

"Hey, grandma."

She deliberately walked away to answer the phone. Lu Beichuan didn't know what they talked about. He only saw that An Xia's expression suddenly became very serious after just a few words.

She hung up the phone and walked over. Before Lu Beichuan could ask anything, An Xia questioned him.

"Why didn't you tell me that grandma was injured?"

Lu Beichuan was stunned.

Grandma? Injured?

Could she be talking about the incident last week when grandma fell and her leg hit the table, cutting a gash less than two centimeters long?

"Grandma is so badly injured and yet you act like nothing happened every day. Aren't you worried about me and won't you let me take care of her?"

Lu Beichuan: “?”

Didn’t the wound heal overnight?

"You are so heartless!" An Xia cursed angrily.

Ming Xiyu's artificial acting could move his heart, and her cries made him feel distressed and anxious.

His own grandmother was injured so badly that she had to stay in bed for several days, but he didn't show any reaction at all.

This grandson was raised in vain.

Lu Beichuan, who was inexplicably scolded, said: "..."

Lu Beichuan took a deep breath and looked at her solemnly, seeming to feel a little resentful.

"You've been hiding from me for a while. You've slipped away faster than a dog before I've even finished explaining the work to you. What do you want me to say to you?"

An Xia was silent for a moment. She couldn't deny it.

She has indeed been hiding this week.

but……

"And you said I had no conscience."

"..."

"You are such a conscientious person, but why didn't you take the initiative to call her back to say hello? How could you hide the fact that she was so seriously injured? If you really wanted to, why couldn't you find out?"

"..."

"You are as shameless as me."

"..."

Lu Beichuan glanced at her, who was almost shrinking like an ostrich, and the corners of his lips inadvertently curled up, but he quickly suppressed it and pretended to be reluctant.

"I told grandma I'd go back to see her tonight, what about you?"

Naturally, An Xia couldn't say no anymore at this time.

Otherwise, I'd be scolded by him again.

"I'm going back too."

Lu Beichuan nodded in satisfaction and took out the car keys from his pocket and threw them into An Xia's hands.

"I'm a little tired after holding several meetings in a row. You can hold the meeting."

An Xia quickly threw the car keys back to him.

"I have my own car, so I won't go with you."

Lu Beichuan raised his eyebrows: "Just your broken car?"

An Xia: “!”

Why are you doing this? If you look down on me, then look down on me. Why are you saying such harsh words?

"I guess grandma will be asleep by the time you get to the old house."

"..."

"Do you really want an old man who is so seriously injured to wait for you with his eyes wide open and his spirits strong?"

An Xia couldn't stand it anymore and took the car keys from his hand.

"Let's go."

I knew Lu Beichuan spoke harshly, but I didn't know he was so mean.

If they continued to argue here, An Xia was worried that she would have a heart attack from Lu Beichuan and be sent to the hospital before she even set out for the old house.

Sitting in Lu Beichuan's driving seat, a long-lost sense of familiarity returned.

Looking at the familiar control panel, An Xia felt mixed emotions.

It was the same in the past. As long as Lu Beichuan was in Jiangcheng, she would take the initiative to be Lu Beichuan's driver and try her best to fill every space in Lu Beichuan's life.

He was unwilling to waste any of his short stay in Jiangcheng.

Things that once seemed enjoyable now seem particularly ridiculous.
