A few days after the operation, Nie Shuqing was asleep.

When Jiang Rongqing suddenly heard her voice, he was delighted.

When he entered the door and met her weak gaze, he immediately remembered the cause of her disease...

He opened his mouth a little, and he rarely showed a bit of embarrassment and said with difficulty: "Mom, are you... awake?"

"Yeah, I just woke up today."

Nie Shuqing's voice was hoarse and nodded to him, "Sit down and say."

Jiang Rongqing sat upright and always used to controlling the overall situation and taking the initiative. At this moment, when facing an ordinary middle-aged woman, she didn't know how to speak.

Just because she is Song Yunyan's mother.

"Rong Qing."

The two were silent for a while, and in the end, Nie Shuqing started to talk about the topic first, "Before I got sick, I heard some rumors, saying that you treated Yunyan as another girl's substitute, it was true-"

"no!"

Before she could finish her question, Jiang Rongqing stood up "rubbed" and decisively denied.

His attitude made Nie Shuqing slightly stunned.

Without blinking, she looked at the tall and cold young man in front of her.

"real?"

She asked in a deep voice.

"Mom, I can't call the girl they said so far and explain everything to you in person. But I can guarantee that I definitely did not use Yanyan as a substitute!"

Jiang Rongqing's word and sentence are heavy and very important.

His eyes were burning, and his deep pupils were only as sincere as fire.

"Jiang Rongqing? What are you here for?!"

Before Jiang Rongqing could wait for Nie Shuqing's reply, an impatient voice rang out from behind.

He quickly turned around and saw the little woman holding a basin of water, standing at the door of the ward with resentment.

"Smoke..."

He screamed subconsciously. Before he could say anything, Song Yunyan had already put down the basin of water and quickly pulled him out the door.

After the door was closed, she asked anxiously: "You know what kind of stimulation my mother suffered from cerebral hemorrhage! Why are you still appearing in front of her?"

"I don't know she's awake-"

"If you make her excited again, will she still have a way out for a second bleeding?"

"I really didn't mean it-"

"You can't ignore my mother's life or death on purpose? Your mother didn't hurt her enough, so you have to harm her yourself?"

“…”

Song Yunyan was worried about her mother's body and was very strong.

Finally, her chest was fluctuating violently. When she looked at the man, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere was wrong.

Jiang Rongqing's face was tense, her thin lips were pursed into a line, and the curve of her jaw became a little stiffer.

It was obviously an angry look, but there was no anger in his eyes, only emptiness and loneliness.

She had never seen him like this before.

"Rong Qing, I..."

Realizing that her words were too hurtful, she subconsciously wanted to explain.

But as soon as he said a few words, Jiang Rongqing smiled bitterly and said expressionlessly: "It's not too late, please rest with your mother, I'll go back first."

"Rong Qing, I just..."

She spoke again, but the man had turned around and his back quickly disappeared from the corner of the corridor.

Standing there, she stared blankly for a few seconds, she took a deep breath and returned to the ward.

"Rong Qing is gone?"

Nie Shuqing asked on his own initiative.

"Um."

Song Yunyan nodded slightly, and then asked nervously: "He didn't make you angry, right? Your body--"

"I'm fine."

Nie Shuqing gave her a soothing smile, held the remote control in her hand, and signaled her to watch the TV with her.

It was a coincidence that the TV station was playing the variety show of love in the wild.

Now is a clip of her and Jiang Rongqing.

In the picture, the two of them squeezed into the simple wooden house kitchen and dealt with the fish caught by Jiang Rongqing himself.

"I'll fry it, be careful to burn you."

The man, who has always been extremely noble, was wearing a funny short apron, standing in front of the stove like a decent shape, and squeezed her who was frying fish aside.

When the fresh fish is out of the pot, the man picks up the oil pan and pours out the hot oil.

Suddenly, the ears of the oil pan broke, and with a "slam", all the hot oil spilled out.

"oops!"

In the camera, Song Yunyan hid backward in panic.

The man was unable to avoid it, and was splashed onto his shoes and on the back of his hands.

But he didn't feel the pain, so he just asked Song Yunyan: "Are you okay?"

She shook her head repeatedly. He observed carefully for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was not burned. He said fearfully: "Luckily, I just pushed you away. What if you use this pot, what should I do?"

Fortunately...

He was seriously scalded, and the skin on his feet had blisters, and the red marks were still not removed.

But he said "lucky".

Just because she is safe.

When recording the program, Song Yunyan didn't feel anything.

But at this moment, looking at their interactions through the screen, she seemed to be a bystander, and it was hard to believe that this man regarded her as a substitute.

"Cloud and Smoke."

Just as she was distracted, her mother called her earnestly.

"mom?"

Her eyes moved from the TV screen to Nie Shuqing's face.

"Mom doesn't want to interfere with the matter between you and Rong Qing. But as a person who has experienced it, I want to remind you that sometimes you have to believe in your own heart."

Believe in your own heart?

Song Yunyan bit her lip and choked and said, "But his mother hurt you! As your daughter, how can I——"

"Silly kid, don't be bound by these things. As long as you think he is sincere, mom hopes that you can cherish this relationship. Don't delay your happiness for me."

"mom!"

Song Yunyan's heart trembled, and she strode to the edge of the bed, leaned on the head of her mother's bed and cried.

That night, she suffered from insomnia almost all night.

After going over and over again, I kept thinking about everything Jiang Rongqing had done for her.

The next day, after she had breakfast with her mother, she received a call from Kelly.

"The original plan for that variety show was fifteen episodes, but you only filmed five episodes. Now the program team requires you to go through a termination process and you must be present in person to sign."

As an artist, Song Yunyan has always been very dedicated.

She immediately said, "Okay, then I'll go right away."

When she arrived in the EK building, she signed the letter and discussed the next stage of work arrangements with Kelly, and she would leave soon.

only……

She was taken to the elevator entrance by Kaili, and she couldn't help asking: "How have Jiang Rongqing been doing in the company these days?"

"I am a subsidiary of him and I don't have much contact with him, so I don't know the specific situation of Mr. Jiang."

Kelly said, suddenly thinking about something, and pondered again, "But..."

"But what?"

"However, the company has been rumored in the past few days. It is said that Mr. Jiang and his family business, Jiang's group, are currently facing tit-for-tat, and the business war is in full swing."

Upon hearing this, Song Yunyan was shocked.

Is Jiang Rongqing doing this for her?

In order to avenge her mother, did she attack her own mother?

On the way back to the hospital, this question kept hovering in my mind.

After entering the hospitalization building, she walked back to Nie Shuqing's ward absent-mindedly.
