Could it be that at this hour, she’s still at work? Or … at her parents’ house?
Dropping his hand from knocking on the door, he still stood undeterred in the doorway for a moment. The agent waited, and finally, heard him speak despondently, “Go away.”
Only then did a smile appear on the agent’s face. It was only when the two headed for the elevator door that the door ‘dinged’ and as the door slowly opened, only a surprised whimper could be heard, “Hengjun?”
Walking out was none other than Xi Sujie, who was dragging her suitcase back.
“Why are you here? Looking for Ziggy?”
Although Ke Hengjun’s face was blocked, the friendship back then was not false. Xi Sujie naturally recognized it at a glance.
Seeing her, Ke Hengjun’s eyes lit up. Immediately took off his sunglasses, regardless of the agent on the side of the wow, he reached out and lifted the box in Su Jie’s hand, and walked after her.
“It’s just as well you’re back, I was worried about getting in.”
“Zige isn’t home?” Xi Sujie asked as she pulled out her keys.
“I don’t know, maybe in.” Kohenjun shook his head and nodded again, “I knocked on the door for a long time and it never moved.”
“Then it must not be at home.” Xi Sujie said as she opened the door, “Otherwise, surely I will open … for you.”
Before the words were finished, her eyes landed on the shoes in the foyer and she froze, glancing around the room.
“She seems to be at home …”
Even the light in the living room was still on.
“Smell it, does it smell like something is baking?” Xi Sujie asked.
Kohenjun sniffed, “Looks like potatoes.”
He frowned, changing his shoes out of his bare feet and heading inside.
“At home, and actually keeping quiet, what a lesson!”
As he spoke, he peeked his head toward the kitchen. Something had been placed on the kitchen stove, and it had obviously burned. Xi Sujie let out a low cry of ‘oops’ and hurriedly rushed over to turn off the stove.
Opened the lid and looked at it, “Oh my! Is this mashed potatoes? It’s all black! It’s been sitting there most of the day, hasn’t it?”
“What’s going on here? Why is the house in such a mess?”
“Oh my! My flower! It’s actually dead!” Suje wailed, “This woman! Didn’t she promise to water them for me?”
That’s so weird!
Usually, Zige cleaned things up neatly, there was no way she would let the house get messy like this. Blankets and pillows were scattered messily on the floor. There was also a pile of garbage in the kitchen. The water in the kettle was all cold.
Ke Hengjun’s brow wrinkled as he went with his instincts toward Zi Ge’s bedroom. The door, with a twist, surprisingly opened. Standing in the doorway, he was shocked to see the straight and bulging mass on the bed.
“It seems … like sleeping individuals.” The agent said.
Ko Hengjun took a step closer and his heart trembled.
“No … it can’t be dead … dead, can it?” The broker was a little scared. Inexplicably, he felt that the atmosphere at this moment was particularly bizarre.
With his breath held, Ko Hengjun walked over and lifted the covers of the bedchamp as soon as he could.
All of a sudden, jaws dropped and stuttered.
The agent took a step backwards in direct shock.
“Evening … Zi Ge …” Ke Hengjun was shocked and tongue tied as he looked at the woman on the bed who was as pale as a ghost.
“What time is it?” She looked at him with open, lifeless eyes and sat up.
“Six … sixes.” Ko Hengjun was shocked by her. What was she doing? Sleeping? But … lying under the covers, her eyes were clearly open!
Wooden, vacant eyes open …
Such a Zige was something he had never seen before, as if his soul had been gutted and only a shell was left.
“It’s only morning?” She cocked her head, sitting down and laying back down, “I’ll have to sleep some more then.”
Sleep a little longer?
Ko Hengjun’s hand, which was cupping the quilt, was trembling.
The agent hid behind him very unprofessionally and spoke with trepidation, “She … never sleeps with her eyes open?”
It’s really scary …
It was so horrible that it made him want to run away.
“Zige, get up!” Ke Hengjun reached for her arm, “It’s six in the afternoon! Not morning!”
He screamed, his eyes red with emotion.
Days! Her arms, visibly thinner!
“Is it six in the afternoon?” Tugged up by him, he was hard, pulling her hand red. But she didn’t even frown, just quietly walked out of bed and calmly said, “I want to eat.”
Turn back again, look at them and smile beautifully …
“You guys want to stay and eat together? I made mashed potatoes.”
Her smile, impeccable, even beautiful.
But …
On the contrary, the eyes fluttered frighteningly.
The agent squeezed Ke Hengjun’s shoulders, his palms sweating, “Hurry up! This woman is probably crazy!”
Ziggy was barefoot and headed for the kitchen. As if floating out, her figure was light. When she passed by Xi Sujie, Xi Sujie called out to her, but she didn’t even turn her head back and just walked towards the kitchen.
Glancing at Ke Hengjun, who had followed him over, the mournful look on his face gave Xi Sujie a sudden bad feeling.
Following closely to the kitchen, he saw Ziggy set aside the mashed potatoes that Suje hadn’t had a chance to dump on the table, and, afterward, took a spoon and ate them woodenly.
Xi Sujie shrieked and ran over, “Zige, what are you doing!”
“Dinner.” She answered as a matter of course. Lowering her head again, she scooped up a bite and ate quietly.
Xisu Jie was horrified to take away her mashed potatoes, “It’s all mushy! Can’t you see? You can’t eat it!”
“Why?” She asked innocently.
Tears, rolled down from Xisu Jie’s eyes, “It’s hard to eat, so … don’t eat this …”
“Is it hard to eat?”
Zige tilted her head and looked at Xi Sujie.
It seems like … whoever said her mashed potatoes tasted good before … even stole a kiss from her …
So the guy lied to her?
Yes, it must be that she made it so bad that … that person would so so … hate herself …
Looking at this kind of Zige, Xi Sujie cried, covering her mouth with all her might to keep her sobs from spilling out.
“Crazy! This woman is really crazy!” The agent shivered behind Ko Hengjun.
“You shut up!” Ke Hengjun stormed out with a violent shout.
Damn it! What the hell did that man do to her?
Stiffening, he strides over, avoiding Suje, and Ke Hengjun picks up Ziggy in a straight across-the-board hug.
“Where are we going?” Ziggy snapped quietly until she reached the door.
“I’ll take you to the hospital.” His voice, husky as if covered in gray.
“Oh.” She answered calmly and looked up at him again, asking seriously, “Your eyes are red. Were they crying?”
“No, it’s in the sand.” As if he was afraid of scaring her, he answered in a voice that was very, very soft. For a moment, the mist came back into his eyes.
glanced at his agent, who immediately hung his sunglasses over the tip of his charming nose to block the reddened circles under his eyes.
Xi Sujie grabbed the door key and hurriedly followed behind Ke Hengjun, tears hanging in the corners of her eyes.
The agent looked down anxiously at the time. It was getting closer and closer to the awards ceremony, and by the looks of it, the kid wasn’t going to make it again.
He pulled out his cell phone and kept calling to make amends.
“Yes, yes, yes, thank the organizers for this award … Don’t worry, don’t worry, next time Heng Jun will definitely appear … This time it was really an accident, I didn’t expect a car accident. Right … now is being sent to the hospital! Also trouble you to help us keep this news … right. Okay, will definitely help you to sympathize with him. Then, goodbye!”
Ke Hengjun had completely forgotten about the awards ceremony, and now, his mind was fully focused on the woman in his arms.
Held like this by him, she was surprisingly well-behaved, lying quietly in the crook of her arm, her eyes just woodenly open.
Xi Su Jie leaned aside, sobbing softly, unable to bear to see Zi Ge in this state now.
The group hurried to the city’s first hospital, and Zige was at their mercy peacefully. Even though, being hooked up to psychiatry.
“It’s probably a shock of some kind, not a big deal.”
The doctor examined it carefully while confirming it.
“Are you sure?” Xi Su Jie looked at the doctor closely, her heart strings not letting up for a moment. On the side, Ke Hengjun’s expression was no better than hers.
His heartache, his worry, was written all over his face.
“Hmm.” The doctor nodded with certainty, “She’s mentally tense and very unstable, so it’s best to let her relax and rest properly. But …”
“But what?” Kohenjun snapped nervously.
“I suggest you hang up with the gynecologist.”
“Gynecology?” Ke Hengjun and Xi Sujie looked at each other.
“Uh-huh. Make sure she’s not pregnant before I dare give her the medicine. Looking at the pulse, it looks like a baby.” The doctor said.
A sentence that made both Xi Sujie and Ke Hengjun freeze.
Pregnant … pregnant?
The first one to come back to his senses was Ke Hengjun, who sidestepped and grabbed Zige’s ID card, “I’m going to flunk.”
“Wait!” The agent yanked him to a halt, “Don’t make fun of it! Do you know what you are? You go to the gynecologist? Is it going to be written all over the world that you knocked up someone else’s girl?”
“Let go!” Ko Hengjun glared at the agent with crimson eyes.
Goddamn it! Who cares what time it is?
“You … you have to mess up your image all the time to be happy, right?!” The agent was so angry that she stomped her feet and clenched her teeth.
“Give it to me, or I’ll go.” Xi Sujie was going to take the job on.
“No, you stay and take care of her.” The physical labor of running up and down the stairs was naturally borne by men across the board.
Shaking off his agent’s hand, he masked his face and made his way down the stairs without incident.
While waiting for the results, Ke Hengjun had been walking back and forth, anxiously, in the hospital room. He looked even more nervous than Zi Ge, who was the one involved.
Zige lay on the bed, the nutrient solution hitting her body, and she just felt chills all over her body.
The hair covered half of her pale little face, but she could clearly feel the chill from the inside out. Xi Sujie quietly wiped her tears, not daring to speak. Just afraid that if she spoke, she would not be able to hold back her tears.
Ke Hengjun sank his steps over and gathered the covers around his body for Zige and sat down at the edge of the bed.
The large palm, probing over, silently held her cold, warmth-less small hand in his hand. Tightly, as if he wanted to transfer his own temperature to her.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine …”
Astringently mute, he coaxed her gently.
Only then did she slowly turn her face and look at him, smiling slightly, “Don’t worry about you and Suje … either …”
It was like this, and she actually had the heart to comfort them.
Ke Hengjun painfully touched her thin face, “Is there anything you want to eat? I’ll go buy it for you.”
She shook her head.
“Then I’ll go back and make you your favorite snack?” Xi Sujie also asked.
She shook her head quietly again.
The two people just had to give up. Xi Sujie paced back and forth, “Why aren’t the results out yet?”
“Coming, coming!” The door, was pushed open and the agent and the gynecologist walked in together. The first to react was Ke Hengjun.
He stood up almost immediately and walked over quickly, “Well? How’s it going? Is it there?”
He was so excited, he was comparable to the baby’s father.
In fact, he certainly didn’t want her to carry that man’s child if he could …
