Chapter 157 Happened
He thought to himself that his mother had been spoiled too much by his grandfather over the years, and her speech and manner had long lost the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
He deliberately increased the weight of his steps, and when he walked into the living room, Li Chuyue had stopped crying. She looked at him with red eyes, her body trembling slightly.
"Chao Ge is back, come and sit down." When Fu's mother saw her son coming back, she quickly gave Li Chuyue a wink, then walked forward with a smile on her face.
"Brother Fu, you're back. Let me pour you a glass of water." Li Chuyue tried to save face and offered to pour water.
"Is this your home?" Fu Chaoge's words made Li Chuyue freeze in place, not knowing how to answer.
Mother Fu secretly glared at Li Chuyue, winked at her behind her back, then took Fu Chaoge's hand and sat on the sofa, saying, "Chuyue also has good intentions, let her go."
Fu Chaoge's silence made Li Chuyue even more anxious. She hurried to the kitchen, took out the medicine bag from her hiding place, quietly poured it into the cup, added water and shook it gently a few times, then walked nervously to Fu Chaoge holding the cup.
"Brother Fu, please have some water." Li Chuyue carefully handed over the cup of water, but Fu Chaoge did not take it immediately, so she had to sit down opposite him on the sofa in disappointment.
She secretly cursed Chen Shuo in her heart why he didn't die in the fire, even if he was disfigured, so that Fu Chaoge would no longer have anything to do with her.
Fortunately, all the crises disappeared and Chen Shuo was not hurt at all.
Thanks to her clever way of making Fu's mother happy over the years, as long as she added a little bit of bad things about Chen Shuo, Fu's mother would believe it without a doubt, and she didn't even show up at the wedding.
After the fire, Li Chuyue wanted to take the opportunity to test Fu's mother's background and see her true attitude towards the statement.
Unexpectedly, Fu's mother gave her advice and asked her to drug Fu Chaoge, thinking that in this way, Chen Shuo would naturally give up.
Li Chuyue was both surprised and happy. This was the opportunity she had dreamed of for more than ten years, and now it was about to come true, she couldn't help but feel a little shy.
"Chaoge, have a drink of water. Even if it's for Chuyue, you should drink something." Seeing that Fu Chaoge was indifferent to the cup of water, Fu's mother became anxious like an ant on a hot pan and kept urging him.
Fu Chaoge was thinking about how to reduce the contact between Fu's mother and Li Chuyue, and did not notice her anxiety.
He took the cup and took a sip reluctantly to get by.
Seeing Fu Chaoge drink the water, Li Chuyue and Fu's mother breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the matter was already half successful.
"Chu Yue, it's getting late. You should stay here tonight. It would be lonely for me to live alone. It would be nice to have you to keep me company and talk." Mrs. Fu invited warmly.
"I hope Auntie doesn't think I'm troublesome." Li Chuyue answered with pretended reserve.
"No!" Fu Chaoge interrupted them without hesitation. He didn't want to give Li Chuyue the opportunity to say bad things about Chen Shu here.
He didn't expect that Li Chuyue would agree so readily.
"Well, Chaoge, it's so late, you should take Chuyue back." Seeing that Fu Chaoge was willing to take Li Chuyue back, Fu's mother went along with it.
Although Fu Chaoge felt that it was troublesome to make an extra trip, he agreed to it as long as it allowed Li Chuyue to leave.
After leaving the villa, he was about to walk towards the driver's seat, but Li Chuyue grabbed his wrist.
"Brother Fu, I haven't driven for a long time. Can you let me try your car?" Li Chuyue said coquettishly.
"Whatever you want." Fu Chaoge was confident in Li Chuyue's driving skills, so he pulled out his car and sat in the passenger seat.
As night fell, Chen Yusheng had carefully read the newspaper in his hand twice. He raised his wrist to check the time and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Chen Shu, why hasn't Xiao Fu come back yet? It's almost twelve o'clock." He asked with concern.
Chen Shuo raised his head from the script and turned his eyes gently to Chen Yusheng, "Dad, he may be having dinner with his mother. I'm fine here. You should go home and rest early."
But Chen Yusheng was determined, "No, how can I leave with peace of mind when you are alone in the hospital? Give him a call and ask."
Seeing his father so insistent, Chen Shu had no choice but to pick up the mobile phone on the bedside table and dial Fu Chaoge's number.
However, the call only rang twice before going to voicemail, indicating that the other party's phone was turned off.
"It's turned off." Chen Shu said softly.
"Why is it turned off? Let me try." Chen Yusheng took the phone and dialed the number again, but the result was the same.
Seeing his father's furrowed brows, Chen Shuo put down the script and comforted him softly, "Maybe your phone is out of battery. Mine is often like this, too."
"Well, that's possible. Then I'll stay here with you and wait for Xiao Fu to come back before I leave." Chen Yusheng insisted.
"Dad, I'm really fine, just a little weak. You can just hire a caregiver. You can go home soon." Chen Shu felt that he did not need such a big effort of care.
But Chen Yusheng seemed to have made up his mind. He put down the newspaper, stood up and walked out of the ward.
After a while, he came back with a caregiver and carefully instructed the caregiver to take good care of Chen Shu, which made Chen Shu both moved and helpless.
After everything was settled, Chen Yusheng left the hospital with peace of mind.
Chen Shuo held the script and read until after two in the morning, but Fu Chaoge still hadn't returned.
She picked up the phone again and dialed the familiar number, but the cold voicemail prompt was still heard in her ears.
Although he felt somewhat confused and uneasy, Chen Shuo still chose to believe Fu Chaoge. After all, it was not the first time that his cell phone was turned off due to his busy work.
She silently put away her phone and continued to immerse herself in the world of the script.
Chen Shu woke up slowly, and the world outside the window was bright and beautiful. It turned out that she had fallen asleep unknowingly while studying the script and waiting for Fu Chaoge.
The ward was quiet and she was the only one there. The glaring "low battery" prompt on her mobile phone screen made her realize that she could not contact Fu Chaoge immediately.
With a soft sigh, she threw back the covers and prepared for the day she would be discharged from the hospital.
At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, interrupting her thoughts. Chen Shu looked in the direction of the voice, and her heart could not help but ripple. It was Fu Chaoge whom she thought about day and night, but his face was solemn, as if there was an imperceptible chill surrounding him.
"You're here." The statement was simple, but it seemed to contain thousands of words.
Immediately afterwards, a familiar figure followed Fu Chaoge and stumbled into sight.
Li Chuyue, her hair was disheveled and her clothes were in tatters, anyone could tell that she had been through some terrible experience.
Her eyes were red and she tried to pull Fu Chaoge's sleeve, but he coldly avoided her. This scene made Chen Shu feel mixed emotions.
Li Chuyue's eyes swept towards Chen Shu from time to time, and that complicated look made Chen Shu feel uncomfortable all over, as if he was the one who did something wrong.
