565 You’re Cold-hearted
“Mrs. Ji, I’m not in the mood to discuss anything else.” Wei Xi’er turned her head and wiped away her tears. She choked and said, “I’m only worried about Zhuang Li’s injuries now. If there’s anything else, can we talk about it when he is okay?”
“Miss Wei, you have to know that it is not love.” Shen Hanxing frowned and advised, “Zhuang Li cheated before. There will be a second time. Do you want to forgive him?”
“Mrs. Ji, Zhuang Li was stabbed in the back with a long knife to save me…” Wei Xi’er bit her lips and said firmly, “If that didn’t show his love for me, what else? If we are in love, we can let bygones be bygones.” When Zhuang Li blocked the knife for her, he couldn’t predict the outcome. It could be a light injury or he could lose his life. Zhuang Li protected her in his arms without hesitation. If he didn’t love her, then who else did?
Zhuang Li could sacrifice his life for her. Why wouldn’t she forgive his little flaws? Wei Xi’er’s tone was so determined that Shen Hanxing hesitated. She wouldn’t usually get involved in other’s matters, but Zhuang Li was different. That man was shrewd. If Wei Xi’er was with him, she might get hurt again.
Wei Xi’er came from a good background, was highly educated, and looked outstanding. Why would she be trapped in love and risk her future for Zhuang Li?
“Miss Wei, have you forgotten what you said?” Shen Hanxing’s tone was heavy. “You said it yourself. There are so many good men in the world, why do you have to…”
“Mrs. Ji!” Wei Xi’er interrupted Shen Hanxing. She looked at Shen Hanxing with a cold and distant gaze. There were tears on her face. She was weak but firm. “I did say that there are so many good men in the world, but Zhuang Li is the only man I want. I was just too angry that I said all those things. Now, Zhuang Li is willing to give up his life for me. I can forgive him for everything he did wrong.”
After saying that, Wei Xi’er looked at Shen Hanxing who was trying to stop her. Her tone was a little disappointed. “I originally thought that I could be friends with Mrs. Ji. But now it seems that we don’t see eye to eye. Thank you, Mrs. Ji. Thanks for your help earlier. I will tell Big Brother and we shall visit you later.”
Shen Hanxing raised her eyebrows. Did Wei Xi’er mean that she didn’t want to be friends with her anymore?
A smart person would get it. Wei Xi’er pursed her lips and distanced herself from Shen Hanxing. She couldn’t help but say, “Mrs. Ji, won’t you ever feel touched? Zhuang Li gave up his life for me. Yet, you keep mentioning what he did before… Why are you so cold-hearted?”
The ambulance was racing against time. The medical staff in the ambulance urged Wei Xi’er to get in. Without waiting for Shen Hanxing’s reply, she got into the ambulance. The door of the ambulance closed. With a hurried siren, the ambulance drove out of sight.
The alley suddenly became quiet. Shen Hanxing stood alone under the bright sunlight. Looking at the empty alley, she gave a self-deprecating smile.
Yes, she was such a busybody. To Wei Xi’er, Zhuang Li’s sacrifice was real. Their love was also real. To Wei Xi’er, Shen Hanxing was just an acquaintance. It was annoying when she talked too much. Despite understanding that, Shen Hanxing felt a little disappointed.
When Ji Yan walked over, he saw this scene. His wife, whom he cherished very much, was standing alone in a deserted alley. The breeze blew her long black hair. She stood under the sun, but she gave off a cold and lonely feeling.
“My wife.” Ji Yan gulped. He quickly stepped forward and held Shen Hanxing’s cold hand. After pausing for a moment, he pulled Shen Hanxing into his embrace and said in a gentle voice, “What are you looking at?”
Ji Yan’s body was very hot. The heat was transmitted to her body and gradually warmed her cold body up. It was as if someone had pulled her from an icy-cold place into a place of warm spring. Shen Hanxing raised her head and looked at Ji Yan, she subconsciously smiled and said, “Mr. Ji.”
