One Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy-Seven Check Again (I)

His deep gaze moved away from her bloodless little face and fell into the night outside the window. There was a layer of coldness in his eyes, but the coldness was mixed with loneliness.

"Drive faster." A faint voice reminded Gu Shaocheng who was driving.

Gu Shaocheng stepped on the accelerator and looked through the rearview mirror. He only saw Tang Yi's lonely profile. Even he had never seen Tang Yi like this. There was a lot of sighing in his heart. This is a person who has never been warmed, so subconsciously, he resists warmth, but unconsciously craves warmth.

——

Zhao Chuning was injured under her body, which was shocking.

When the doctor treated her wound, she had already woken up. Humiliation and pain made her whole body tremble violently. But she just bit her lower lip tightly and clutched the bed sheet under her, not letting herself hum, and refused to open her eyes. The bloodless lips were almost bitten by her. The hand holding the bed sheet was covered with cold sweat.

In my ears, it was Tang Yi's voice, "Are there any other injuries on her body?"

It was hoarse and as cold as ever, and it was difficult to distinguish the emotions in it.

The doctor said: "Except for the forehead, no other external injuries have been found."

"Is the injury on the forehead serious?" Tang Yi's eyes lingered on her, his thin lips tightened, and then he said: "According to her, she just had a car accident."

The doctor checked her forehead again, "Fifth Master, don't worry, it's just a little scratch, it's okay. If you are worried, wait until she wakes up tomorrow. If she has any symptoms of dizziness and headache, take a careful X-ray and do a full body check."

"Yes."

Tang Yi nodded and said nothing.

The ward was very quiet, and her breathing was very light, so light that it seemed to disappear at any time. Later, the doctor simply explained a few words and went out. Tang Yi stood for a while, and finally walked away.

The ward was even quieter.

Outside the window, the cold wind whistled, blowing on the window, and people felt panic.

In the darkness, Zhao Chuning slowly opened her eyes. Her empty eyes paused in the darkness for a long time. After a long time, she looked sideways and saw a tall figure faintly reflected outside the glass door of the ward.

Maybe it was him. Or maybe it wasn't him.

She didn't want to explore it.

The next day.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn outside. The winter sun shone on the entire hospital. She looked at it in a daze but still felt cold.

The mobile phone she left in Tang Yi's room was placed on the bedside.

"Miss Zhao, are you awake?" The nurse in the ward came in with breakfast and greeted her with a smile.

After sleeping, her complexion improved a little. However, she still looked listless. She just nodded, got up, and grabbed the phone in her hand.

The first thing was to call her mother.

"You finally called back!" Hearing her voice, Zhang Rong breathed a sigh of relief, "When I called you last night, a man answered. He said you were asleep! What's wrong with you?"

It should be Tang Yi who answered the phone. Zhao Chuning pressed his forehead with a headache, "Mom, where's Mimi? Is Mimi back?"

"She came back early. She came back last night." Zhang Rong is much more energetic today than yesterday. "Mimi, the child, said that you are in love with the man who took her away! Is the man who took her away her father? Are you two together again?"

"The child is talking nonsense, and you take it seriously." Zhao Chuning breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Xiao Yimi had come home. It seems that Tang Yi really believed what she said yesterday.

When Mimi was born, she didn't get a birth permit, and her household registration was not properly settled. Later, after a year, she finally thought of a way. At that time, she was the youngest. At that time, she thought about such a day.

Zhao Chuning chatted with her mother for a few words, but didn't dare to tell her that she was in the hospital now. After hanging up the phone, she asked for leave from the company. As a result, the logistics department said that someone had already asked for leave for her.

She curled her lips in mockery.

He was really thoughtful.

The leave issue was also settled, and she remembered something more important. The phone that had been put down was picked up again, and he went to the bathroom, carefully avoiding the guards outside, and called Cheng Zheng.

Cheng Zheng was in a morning meeting at this time. When he saw this number, he was slightly surprised. He immediately made a gesture to indicate that the meeting was temporarily interrupted. He pushed the door and walked out of the meeting room before answering the phone.

"Chu Chu?" He was surprised that she would take the initiative to call him. After that incident, he had been worried about how they would have any more interactions in the future.

"Mr. Cheng, is it convenient to talk now?"

Hearing the word "Mr. Cheng", Cheng Zheng sighed helplessly. She was a stubborn person, so he didn't want to change her name, just said: "You talk, I listen."

"Yesterday Tang Yi suddenly knew about Xiao Yimi's existence."

Cheng Zheng understood, "After the E30 project, Mr. Tang and I haven't been able to contact each other. I just heard about Mimi from you."

"Yesterday I had a hard time convincing Tang Yi that Mimi was not his child, so I hope you can keep this secret for me. If you feel embarrassed, I will..."

"It's not difficult. I won't break my promise to you." Cheng Zheng agreed. Then, he added a little sadly: "The premise is that you are still willing to believe me."

Zhao Chuning held the phone and stood against the door. Now, whether you believe it or not, there is no other way.

Cheng Zheng was silent for a moment, and asked again: "Since you still like Tang Yi, why don't you tell him about this matter directly?"

"I like him, but that's in the past." Zhao Chuning replied with a voice as faint as a wisp of smoke. Two people, with only one of them in love, can never be together. She doesn't want an unbalanced love...

Cheng Zheng was stunned for a long time.

"Mr. Cheng, then you go ahead and I won't bother you anymore." At the end, he added: "Thank you."

"Wait." When Zhao Chuning was about to hang up the phone, Cheng Zheng stopped her, "You haven't told me clearly how you hid it from Tang Yi. If you have a chance to meet him in the future, know in advance to avoid being exposed."

"Mimi's age is only four years old on the household registration book. So, Tang Yi took it for granted."

"Chu Chu, with Tang Yi's suspicion and shrewdness, do you think age can fool him? If he really wants to investigate, just ask around in your town, and the answer will be clear at a glance."

How could she not know? He was so disappointed last night.

But, now that things have come to this…

"I can only hope that he won't have such thoughts."

Cheng Zheng always felt that this method was too risky, and it would be fine if it was just to fool ordinary people. But Tang Yi, once he calmed down, would definitely want to find out the truth.

"Miss Zhao, please wash up and come out for breakfast." The bathroom door was knocked, and the voice of the nurse sounded outside.
