Su He’s expression changed slightly. Looking at Li’s pale complexion, it would be a lie if she said that she did not feel touched. She did not expect that the one who really saved her life and her baby’s life yesterday was this girl who seemed a bit peculiar.
“Li, I am sorry. I didn’t you…”
Li did not expect that Zhao Youlin would suddenly pull her to the front like this. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already stood in front of Su He.
Upon hearing Su He’s apology, Li’s body jolted and she hurriedly said, “No, no, no. Xiao He, I am the one who should apologize. We obviously spend every day together, but I was so stupid that I did not notice that you are pregnant. Yesterday, I even hid behind you after provoking that woman, leaving you to face that bad woman alone, you ended up… I am sorry, I am sorry. I am glad that you and the baby are fine, otherwise, I will really regret and feel guilty for the rest of my life!”
Li’s words were very straightforward, but it was exactly because of the straightforwardness that it was particularly easy to touch the hearts of her listener.
At that moment, Su He finally understood the great shock and guiltiness her accident this time had brought to Li. The corner of her lips hooked. She took the initiative to hold Li’s hand, she shook her head and said, “No, you are not to be blamed for this, Li. It’s because I didn’t tell you that I am pregnant. There is nothing wrong with what you did at that time. The company hired me to hold off those troublemakers and to protect you in the first place. It’s my fault that I failed to protect you and let you go through such great shock.”
Li was stunned. Looking at Su He clutching her hand, when she was about to say something, they suddenly heard a peal of laughter coming from beside them.
Both of them turned their heads to look at the same time, only to see Zhao Youlin smiling and taking a few steps forward. She reached out to hold their hands and said, “Alright now, stop explaining for each other and taking the fault on yourselves. From what I see, the only one to blame for this matter is Ms. Xie, who was being reckless yesterday. What does it have to do with you two? However, you shouldn’t have hidden it from us indeed, Xiao He. But we understand that you have your reasons for doing this. So, never do this again. Otherwise, we won’t be friends with you anymore.”
Su He’s heart slightly moved. She looked at Zhao Youlin and Li, secretly digesting Zhao Youlin’s words in her heart.
Friends? The corner of Su He’s lips lifted slightly, as she smiled and nodded.
Zhao Youlin was very satisfied with her reaction. Then, she turned to Li and said in a low voice, “Li, you should also stop blaming yourself for this matter. Ms. Xie is the one who caused Xiao He to be injured. Even if you didn’t shrink back, with Ms. Xie’s recklessness, I am afraid Xiao He would still end up getting hurt.”
The cold light under Zhao Youlin’s eyes flickered for a second and disappeared. At the bottom line, Xie Yuqing was the one who was responsible for this matter.
The situation yesterday happened too quickly and it was too critical. All everyone could think of was saving Su He, no one had any spare effort to hold the culprit accountable for the accident.
Now that they were free, Zhao Youlin was not going to let that woman off that easily. When it came to this, she believed that Young Master Su Jifeng from Su He’s family probably shared the same thoughts as her.
“Fortunately, Xiao He and her baby are fine. Let’s don’t dwell on this. It’s not worth it.”
Li glanced at Su He, who was smiling faintly at her. She nodded with a slight sigh of relief.
The three people in the ward just stared at each other wide-eyed for a while. A moment later, no one knew who hadstarted it, but they just started to laugh in unison.
The cheerful and joyful laughter echoed in the ward, signaling that they had completely opened their hearts to each other. They were happy and relieved. People who heard their laughter could even feel their happiness at the moment.
But at that moment, Su He’s laughter suddenly stopped abruptly, and the expression on her face stiffened for a moment.
Zhao Youlin and Li noticed this almost immediately. The smile on their faces tightened up at once. They said with concern, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Su He shook her head. Feeling embarrassed, she reached out and touched her stomach as she explained, “I think… it kicked a little just now.”
If this baby had not moved suddenly yesterday, she would not have been startled and let the woman hurt her.
She had thought it was just her imagination, but it turned out that…
“Really? Can I touch it?” Li was stunned for a moment. After realizing what Su He had said, her eyes snapped open wide and she asked with immense anticipation.
Su He looked up at Li and nodded.
Li’s eyes lit up. She carefully put her hand on Su He’s stomach. It was round, a little hard, and then…
“Oh! It moved, it moved! It really moved! It’s tiny and it kicked me!”
Li’s yelling made Zhao Youlin curious about the little thing that was still inside Su He’s belly. Although she already had a son who was almost five years old now, she had never experienced such a thing as pregnancy.
After feeling the small movement of the fetus, Li could not wait to place her hand directly on Su He’s belly. She said with a mesmerizing expression on her face, “He is so cute, your baby must be very cute too when it comes out. Well, I wonder if it’s a boy or a girl.”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or girl, but it’s a girl, she can marry Joy and be my future daughter-in-law.”
“Hey. General Manager, you are so cunning. I want it too then.”
“You? Do you have a child?”
“Oh… I don’t have a child, but I can be the child’s godmother! Xiao He, Xiao He, let me be the godmother of your child, okay?”
Su He silently listened to them arguing, and she could not hide the smile under her eyes.
Although she did not get the heart of her lover, she still had her loving parents and brother, and these caring friends. She still had them, didn’t she?
The harmonious and happy ambiance inside the ward made the two men, especially Su Jifeng, who was secretly observing them outside to heave a sigh of relief.
Looking at his sister who had a smile returned to her face again, the hostility under Su Jifeng’s eyes finally dissipated a little.
Mu Tingfeng was standing beside Su Jifeng. Remembering the woman Zhao Youlin had just mentioned, Mu Tingfeng opened his mouth to ask, “How do you plan to handle this matter?”
After Mu Tingfeng said that, the hostility that had just been calmed down emerged in Su Jifeng’s eyes again. “Those who hurt Xiao Qi, no matter who they are, I won’t let them off.”
The life, death and future of a person or even a family had been sealed in his single sentence.
Mu Tingfeng nodded. It was obvious that he had expected that Su Jifeng would say that. He paused for a moment and continued, “What about Ye Yan?”
This time, Su Jifeng did not answer. He only grunted coldly as a response, no one could understand what was really on this mind.
