Chapter 209: Unwarranted Speculation
She said this so sadly, and her tone was full of heartache for Li Siheng.
Bian Yue looked at her, and for a moment, she didn't know whether she should feel pity for her or think she was paranoid.
"Ms. Su, after my engagement with Li Siheng was cancelled, I never asked Li Siheng to do anything for me. Before that, I used my true heart to give him what he gave to me. I think you need some time to calm down."
After Bian Yue finished speaking, without waiting for Su Youxue to answer, he turned and walked away.
Su Youxue seemed to come back to her senses in an instant. She looked at Bian Yue in panic with a nervous expression, "Miss Bian, Si Heng hasn't woken up yet, you can't leave."
"I'm just going out for some fresh air. Don't worry, I'll wait for Li Siheng to wake up before I leave." Bian Yue patted Su Youxue's hand and said slowly, "There's more than a little affection between Li Siheng and me."
Su Youxue's expression eased a little. She looked at Bian Yue and whispered, "I'm sorry, Miss Bian, I was really afraid that you would leave. I know you are very happy now, but I want to tell you that the reason why Si Heng is with Zhuang Jie Ning is just a deal with his father. From the beginning to the end, the only person he loves is you."
The word "love" should have a heavy connotation, but for some reason, now anyone can say it easily.
Bian Yue listened to the word "love" from Su Youxue's mouth, smiled and shook her head, "You are wrong, he may love me, but he cares more about himself. Miss Su, I don't need love with many impurities, I need love that is unique."
Su Youxue slowly loosened her hand. She stared at Bian Yue blankly for a long time, then let go of her hand and smiled bitterly, "I know what you mean. I was talking too much."
This time, Su Youxue watched Bian Yue leave without stopping her. She calmed down and then stumbled towards the ward.
At this time at the Li family, Li Tingmo was looking at Zhuang Jie Ning with an anxious expression.
The latter was sitting on the sofa, slowly looking at the wedding invitation.
Her makeup today was bright and dignified, like a lady from upper-class society, and her every move showed that she was well-educated.
"Dad, I think this invitation is too plain. I want to find someone to redesign it." Zhuang Jie Ning took the invitation in her hand and looked at it again and again. Then, she frowned in disapproval, "My invitation can't be worse than Bian Yue's original one, right? Shen Jinci hired a special designer to design it."
Li Tingmo's face was tense, and he looked at Su Youxue with a sullen face, and said in a cold voice: "Didn't you hear what I said? I said! Come with me to the hospital now, something happened to Si Heng!"
"What does his accident have to do with me? What does it have to do with our wedding?" Zhuang Jie Ning sneered, looked at Li Tingmo calmly, and said frankly: "Dad, even if Li Siheng died in the hospital, our wedding will be held as scheduled."
Although Li Tingmo knew that Zhuang Jie Ning was selfish and as cold-blooded as himself, he was still angry at Zhuang Jie Ning's inaction.
"The person in the ward is my son, your fiancé! What does it matter if you go to the hospital with me now!" Li Tingmo's face turned pale. "Do you know that even Bian Yue is in the hospital now? Why can't you go?"
Zhuang Jie Ning's nonchalant expression finally changed. She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Tingmo with a tentative and unbelieving look, "You said, Bian Yue is also in the hospital?"
"Yes!" Li Tingmo sneered, "Why? Are you willing to go when Bian Yue is here?"
"Dad, I feel wronged when you say that. I have always listened to your teachings and not to provoke Bian Yue." Zhuang Jie Ning smiled and put down the invitation in her hand. "But now, you insist that I go to the hospital to see Li Siheng, so I can only go there reluctantly."
Li Tingmo listened to Zhuang Jie Ning's sarcastic remarks expressionlessly, and walked out without any hesitation. Zhuang Jie Ning smiled lightly, slowly stood up, and walked out.
In the ward, the smell of disinfectant filled the air, the monitor emitted a slight, orderly, short electric current sound, and everything fell silent.
Bian Yue was sitting beside the hospital bed, calling Shen Jinci.
"Yes, I'm on the ninth floor. You can see me when you come up." Bian Yue paused and said, "Jin Ci, Li Siheng is still in a coma. Please be gentle when you come in."
After saying this, Bian Yue hung up the phone.
On the side, Su Youxue's curious eyes fell on Bian Yue. Seeing that Bian Yue noticed, she quickly restrained herself and showed a complicated smile, "Sorry, Miss Bian, I just didn't expect that you would say this to Shen Jinci."
"There's no need for Jin Ci and I to be polite to each other. Everything should be based on the patient's feelings." Bian Yue smiled and handed Su Youxue a bottle of water. "I see you've been running around for several times. Sit down and rest for a while."
Su Youxue's expression became more complicated. "Don't you blame me for what happened before?"
"Haven't you asked me this once? I answered you at the wrap-up party. I don't blame you. These things are not anyone's fault. We just have different standpoints." Just as Bian Yue finished speaking, footsteps were heard at the door.
Shen Jinci walked in, wearing a formal long black suit. He looked indifferent and noble, and had an unusually cold aura.
He walked behind Bian Yue, then set his eyes on Li Siheng and asked calmly, "What's going on?"
"His illness was originally under control, but after taking over Feng Cheng these days, his condition has worsened. It is much more serious than the doctor had estimated." Bian Yue was in a complicated mood. She looked at Shen Jinci and said with some concern, "I'm worried that he won't make it."
Shen Jinci understood how complicated human emotions were.
The bond between Bian Yue and Li Siheng is too strong.
Betrayal in love cannot erase the feelings that have built up over the years between two people.
Shen Jinci didn't want to erase it either. He loved Bian Yue and respected all her past.
He patted Bian Yue's shoulder soothingly, and said softly, "Yueyue, don't worry. The Li family has already mobilized the best medical resources. Li Siheng is here and is safe for the time being."
"Safe?" Su Youxue, who was standing aside, seemed to be invisible. At this moment, she finally raised her eyes and looked at Shen Jinci unwillingly, mocking him, "I want to ask Mr. Shen, what do you mean by safe? Did Si Heng lie here unconscious after seeing you?"
"Li Siheng did come to see me today, but he is lying here now, and it has nothing to do with me." Shen Jinci said in a dull tone, "Miss Su, it is not a good habit to make unwarranted assumptions."
"Okay, I won't speculate." Su Youxue sneered, "Then tell me, what did you talk about with Si Heng today?"
