Gu Meng was worried that Ling Hui would be forbidden from entering that hospital by the Tenth Princess when she arrived in B Country. She asked Ye Qing to leave that secret guard in B Country to fetch Ling Hui.
After Ling Hui arrived at the airport in the capital of B Country, the secret guard picked her up.
Once they got into the car, Ling Hui asked impatiently, “Did you see Tang Xi? How is he now?”
The secret guard replied, “I’ve asked the doctor. When the accident happened, Young Master Tang jumped out of the car. Although his head and left leg were injured, his life is not in danger!”
Ling Hui heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that Tang Xi’s life was not in danger.
When they arrived at the hospital, the secret guard disguised himself as a doctor and brought Ling Hui to the VIP ward on the top floor.
“Young Master Tang’s ward number is 906.”
Ling Hui nodded and walked toward Tang Xi’s ward with the flowers and fruits she had bought.
The distance from the elevator to the ward was not far, but Ling Hui’s every step was heavy.
From finding out that he had died in a car accident to finding out that he was still alive, she felt like she had lived several centuries in just a week.
Her thoughts had been too chaotic recently and she had not had the time or capability to sort out her feelings for him. However, knowing that something had happened to him, she felt extremely guilty and regretful. After reading that diary, her emotions were even deeper!
Walking to the door of Room 906, Ling Hui looked in through the glass window.
Tang Xi’s head was wrapped in gauze and his left leg was in a cast. He lay on the bed with a pale face.
He was not the only one in the ward. There was also the Tenth Princess, Luo Di. Luo Di brought food over. She raised the bed high, poured the porridge into a bowl, and sat by the bed to feed Tang Xi.
Tang Xi’s lips were originally pursed tightly but he suddenly seemed to have noticed something as he glanced at the glass window.
When he saw the woman standing outside, his lifeless eyes constricted slightly.
He could not believe that Ling Hui would appear here.
Seeing that Tang Xi was ignoring her after waking up, Luo Di was about to say something when Tang Xi suddenly opened his mouth and ate the food she fed him.
When Luo Di saw Tang Xi’s actions, joy appeared in her eyes.
She scooped another spoonful, blew at it, and fed it to him.
Tang Xi concentrated on eating what Luo Di fed him and did not look out of the window again.
Although she did not say anything to Tang Xi, Tang Xi’s cold eyes and indifferent expression told her everything.
In this relationship, Ling Hui had always been the passive one. If Tang Xi did not take the initiative, they would not have any contact.
Now that she was taking the initiative for the first time, she was being ignored!
Ling Hui felt bitter.
However, if she were to put herself in his shoes, he would probably have felt even worse when she rejected him time and time again in the past and even ignored him!
Ling Hui stared at him and Luo Di for a while before she looked down and left.
When Tang Xi looked outside again, he no longer saw Ling Hui.
“Tang Xi, what do you like to eat? I’ll bring it for you tomorrow?” Luo Di looked at Tang Xi with gentle eyes.
Tang Xi pursed his pale lips and ignored Luo Di’s words.
Noting that he was staring out of the window, Luo Di turned back to take a look. Seeing that there was nothing unusual there, she asked in confusion, “Brother Tang Xi, what are you looking at?”
Tang Xi closed his eyes, his thin face showing some fatigue. “Tenth Princess, my head hurts a little. You can go back first!”
Luo Di could not bear to go back and wanted to talk to Tang Xi for a while, but he was still very weak and she did not want to make him unhappy, so she got up and left.
…
Tang Xi leaned against the head of the bed. Just as he had expected, the woman who had left returned after a while.
She knocked on the door of the ward. Seeing that Tang Xi’s eyes were closed, she pushed the door open and walked in.
Tang Xi did not open his eyes and Ling Hui thought he was asleep.
Seeing him again, Ling Hui felt like a lifetime had passed.
His handsome facial features were thinner and more haggard. His eyebrows were slightly furrowed and he looked like he had a lot on his mind. The stubble on his chin had not been cleaned, making him look more wild and unconventional. This made him look even more masculine and added a hint of sexiness.
Ling Hui lightened her footsteps and placed the flowers and fruits on the table.
She stood by the bed, but he still had no reaction.
She moved the chair Luo Di had sat on earlier and sat on it.
The moment she sat down, the man opened his red eyes.
Seeing the woman by the bed, Tang Xi furrowed his eyebrows, his expression unusually cold.
Ling Hui had roughly guessed that it was Luo Di and the Tang family’s idea to mislead her into dying in a car accident. He probably did not know about it.
Facing his cold expression, Ling Hui said hoarsely, “Tang Xi, that day you asked me why Ling Motian sent me back. Actually…”
Before Ling Hui could finish, Tang Xi interrupted her with a cold expression. “Miss Ling, it’s not important anymore.”
He no longer called her Princess or Ling Hui, but the extremely unfamiliar Miss Ling.
Ling Hui’s heart tightened slightly and a feeling of emptiness that she had never felt before spread to her heart.
Ling Hui saw that Tang Xi disliked her mentioning Ling Motian and changed the topic. “Let me take care of you while you’re hospitalized!”
Tang Xi looked at Ling Hui, whose attitude had changed a little after seeing him this time. He frowned. “Miss Ling, our agreement has ended early. You don’t have to stay and take care of me.”
“Tang Xi, I’m not taking care of you because of the agreement…”
Knock knock.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Ling Hui turned back and saw a man in a black coat standing at the door of the ward. Seeing this, Ling Hui hurriedly stood up from the chair.
When Tang Xi saw the man, his handsome and cold face softened and his thin lips moved. “Dad.”
Ling Hui was at a loss. Seeing Father Tang looking at her, she forced herself to calm down and greeted him with a smile. “Hello, Uncle. I’m Tang Xi’s friend, Ling Hui. I came to see him.”
Father Tang looked at Ling Hui and his gentle expression changed. His gaze was complicated. “Miss Ling, you look a little familiar. Is your father’s surname Dai?”
Tang Xi and Ling Hui were surprised when they heard what Father Tang said.
Ling Hui nodded. “Yes, Uncle knows my father?”
Father Tang did not say anything more, but his attitude was unusually cold. “Miss Ling, my son has many friends. He has always been half-hearted when it comes to relationships, so there’s nothing definite about it. Although our Tang family is also a noble family, we are still unable to get too close to Miss Ling because of your royal blood. Thank you for coming to B Country to visit my son. I would like to speak to my son alone if it’s convenient for you…”
Father Tang’s words were very tactful and Ling Hui understood what he meant.
Ling Hui glanced at Tang Xi. Tang Xi looked back at Ling Hui, his long upturned eyes like a bottomless pool, so dark that they could absorb everything in the world.
After a while, he said with a bone-chilling voice, “Leave. Don’t come again!”
