Chapter 293: Unhappy

Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

Nabi Yan, as if she didn’t notice that something was wrong between them, smiled and joked, “Why are you guys one in front and one behind? You didn’t come together, did you?”
Jerry Xiao pursed his lips and did not answer.
Zoey just smiled and set aside the flowers in her hand, “You’re in much better spirits.”
This ward, it seems, has no shortage of flowers. The flowers he picked were beautiful and all Nabi’s favorites.
“Well, it’s all Jerry’s fault!” Nabi Yan sweetly pushed all the credit to him, “If he wasn’t with me every day, I would be bored to death.”
The sweetness of the words was so sweet that it made Zoey’s heart ache. And Jerry Xiao just sat quietly on the side, listening to Nabi Yan, without a word of rebuttal.
Zoey forced a smile, “It’s a blessing that I’ve recovered so well, and my aunts and uncles can rest a little easier.”
“I don’t wish I could have recovered this early.” Nabi Yan ruffled the hair at her temples, revealing a face that had regained its vitality.
The power of love is really great, and she is now a very different person from the one she was in Japan earlier.
Zoey sat down comfortingly on the edge of the bed, “Don’t say such silly things.”
“No silly, what if I recover that fast and Jerry doesn’t care about me later?” Although the words say so, but the smile is not reduced. He also sweetly glanced sideways at Jerry Xiao, Zoey did not dare to follow her line of sight, but heard his assurance, “Don’t worry, I said I would not leave you alone.”
Zoey laughs with her.
What a wonderful promise this is …
It’s just a pity that this promise will never be said to her.
“Eh, Zoey . What are you staring at?” Nabi Yan took her hand and waved it in front of her, she swayed before she heard Nabi Yan say, “Zoey , put the flowers you bought in the bottle. It smells so good ….”
“Hmm?” Zoey looked around a little, “But there’s only one vase.”
And, with the flowers he just sent over.
“It’s okay, just take Jerry’s flowers away.” Nabi Yan said, already hands to take the flowers out.
Zoey subconsciously glanced at Jerry Xiao, who was silent at the moment, and his expression was still light, with a rather unconcerned look. It seems that he doesn’t mind his fiancée, who doesn’t cherish his gift.
Zoey got up to put the bouquet she bought into a beautiful vase when she heard Nabi Yan say, seemingly without thinking, “Jerry sends flowers every day anyway. I’ll put this one in today, and then tomorrow I’ll put the ones he gave me.”
Zoey’s hand, a slight pause. And then, squeeze out the slightest faint smile to. To receive flowers from him every day, it should be an indescribable happiness …
She, never expects anything.
“Knock, knock, knock–” The door of the ward was suddenly knocked on. The nurse pushed the door in, “Miss Shu, it’s time to eat.”
“Okay, thanks.” Nabi Yan was bracing herself to get up, Zoey was busy helping her up, but Jerry Xiao was already up, moving skillfully to help her adjust the height of the bed and help her up again, not forgetting to add a pillow to her back.
A series of movements, all of which left Zoey stunned, feeling that her presence here at the moment was merely superfluous.
“Jerry, why don’t you have a bite too?” Nabi Yan took the spoon and put it to Jerry Xiao’s lips.
Jerry Xiao frowned, “You eat it yourself.”
“It’s no fun for me to eat alone. Here, just take a bite, okay?” Nabi Yan is reluctant to give up, and her tone becomes softer and softer with a pampering that one cannot refuse.
Zoey’s eyes watered and she subconsciously turned her face away.
Some things, just do not look, will not feel so hurt …

Jerry Xiao really has no interest in hospital meals at all, even though he has people try to make them taste better. Looking at Nabi Yan’s expectant look, he subconsciously pushed her hand away again, his sight, however, touched Zoey’s evasive look.
Thin lips, slightly provoked. The curvature raised, slightly cold. He then obediently opened his mouth and let Nabi Yan feed his mouthful of food.
Taste, very bad. However, when he saw Zoey’s long eyelashes dropping lower and lower, he felt inexplicably happy.
“How does it taste?”
“It’s good.” In fact, he couldn’t even bother to taste it. Attention, too, was not at all on this side.
“Then why don’t you try something else?” Nabi Yan was fascinated by such couple-like intimacy.
And surprisingly …
He, surprisingly, was also a rare willingness to cooperate.
“Okay, I want to eat that …”
“Here, open your mouth.” Her voice was pleasant and cheerful, “How’s that? It’s delicious, isn’t it?”
“Hmm. Not bad. Let me try that one again.” He, too, seemed to be on the crypt for such a back-and-forth interaction.
Zoey sat off to the side, embarrassed, uncomfortable, and more … sour …
In fact, in the eyes of these two people, they are but a dispensable transparent … person is also a, superfluous. Even, there may be an eyesore bulb …
She stood up, tried to raise a smile, looked at them, and spoke as graciously and generously as she could, “I’ll leave you guys alone and go first.”
Jerry Xiao’s face was slightly sunken, and Nabi Yan turned her face away, “You’re leaving now? The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers! I’m really bored here alone. It’s rare to have you talk to me for a while.”
And stay? What can we do if we stay? Just to see with my own eyes again how happy they are …
Zoey smiles and shakes her head, declining her offer. Turning, she pulls open the door and walks out, lost in thought.
The back, forlorn, faded.
Jerry Xiao stared, watching her a little, a little disappeared in his own eyes. The tense body, actually let him inexplicably feel difficult. The heart, heavy, like stuffed with a boulder general.
He should not feel happy to have just played such a beautiful scene?
But, why can’t I be happy at all now?
“Jerry, eat some more of this chicken nuggets, it’s very nutritious.” Nabi Yan pushed the spoon over again, he steeped back, but pushed her hand away, “You can eat it yourself, I’ll go first, I’ll see you tomorrow.”
The chicken nuggets, with a push from him, rolled down on the sheets, leaving a dark, greasy mess. He also didn’t turn around, having taken a few steps to the door and landed his hand on the door handle.
The smile on Nabi Yan’s face could no longer hold up when she looked at him, who was so disoriented and about to walk away.
“Jerry! Stop right there!” She shouted.
This call, but it was too late. He already pulled open the door and took a big step out. With a soft thud, the door of the ward, was taken with him.
All of a sudden, Nabi Yan was the only one left in the large ward.
The heating was obviously on, but it became much colder. It was as if she had fallen into a cold winter, so she couldn’t help but shudder and shed tears.
“Pah-“, then indignantly swept the meal in front of him, all to the floor.
The caretaker outside the door was startled and immediately pushed the door in, “Miss Shu!”
Nabi Yan looked sideways and saw the bouquet of flowers from Zoey on the desk, and the anger in her eyes suddenly increased! Get out of here! Get the hell out of here. … Zoey Baker, I don’t need your fake kindness! Hypocrisy!”
She buried her face in her palm and whimpered.
Why? Why did he fall in love with Zoey Baker and why does this man, no longer belong to him?
No! She, she must not let this go on!
Jerry is hers!
It can only be hers!
Zoey muddled out of the hospital for a long, long time, the mind wandered through the scene of sweet images …
So sweet that even the tip of her heart prickled with pain.
Obviously early thought, sooner or later will see this scene, but, so real in front of their own eyes, only to find that it is so hard to …
When I had not yet reached the curb, I only felt a heat in my lower body and a sudden surge of hot water came out. The small abdomen, immediately attacked a burst of unbearable pain.
Her fine brows furrowed and a cold sweat sprang up on her whitened forehead.
It’s too bad! I can’t believe I’m having my period right now! Her period has always been accurate, but this time it was abnormally early, and the pain was excruciating …
It left her completely unprepared.
She took a tentative step forward, wanting to go temporarily buy sanitary products and hold out until she got home. However, only after taking one step, the sharp pain in her belly made her squat down unbearably …
In front of her eyes were people who were hurrying past one by one, she could not see their expressions, but could only see the pair of legs constantly swaying past, coming and going in a hurry. The tip of the nose inexplicably sour, suddenly, she squatted on the road, like a child who had lost his home, helplessly crying.
Tears are falling hard …
She did not know whether she was crying like this because of the bouts of pain in her abdomen or because of the dull pain in her chest that was slow to dissipate …
At this moment … she really just wants to be like a child and let out all the emotions in her heart! Not a single bit left!
Wipe off the tears, new tears, but more and more flow. Blurred between the tears, but suddenly bumped into a familiar figure …
Even though, the eyes are clouded by tears and not so clear, yet, she can still recognize him at a glance …
The man who should be in the ward with his fiancée at this moment is standing in front of her. Not far away, not close, hanging his head, gazing at her in a sullen way …
Those eyes, deep and complex, bright and dark, so that people can not guess his emotions at this time.
He is clearly in sight, yet so far away that he can never be touched.
Heart …
Inexplicably welled up more soreness. Abdominal pain, aggravated, Zoey aggrieved, lowered her head, hugged herself tighter, tears flowed more …
Why, at this time, would he appear here?
She wanted to ask, but was afraid of disappointment …
But, even without looking up, it is clear that the figure, step by step, is walking towards himself, slowly approaching …
In the ward, there was a mess and debris. A caretaker was in charge of cleaning it up.
Nabi Yan has calmed down, sitting in a daze on the bed, only to look out the window with her face parted. The tears had already been wiped away from her eyes. She choked up and forced herself to swallow back.
Having already broken a leg, she won’t allow herself to be pitied by others, and to be seen by outsiders as nothing more than an abandoned wreck!

“Hey, I heard there was a big fuss inside just now!” Outside the door, a nurse door was whispering. The door was not closed, so some could be heard vaguely.
“Not really. I was just downstairs and I could hear the sound of things being dropped.”
“It seems to be a quarrel with that extremely good man.”
“I heard that another woman came, and the man ran after that person!”
“Huh? There’s still such a thing, huh? Is she going to be abandoned?” All in a sympathetic tone.

A sound that reached her ears, Nabi Yan was so angry that even her lips were trembling. She screamed up at the caretaker who was sweeping the floor, “Get me your dean! I want to file a complaint! I want to complain about those two long-winded women outside!”
