Chapter 1296: Chapter 1296: See If There Is Love in Your Eyes
Chang Qinghua stood outside the door, pondering Ji Qishu’s words.
The girl crashed into his car at the intersection?
Chang Qinghua didn’t really believe in the prejudice that female drivers are road killers because every year more car accidents involve male drivers; girls are actually more careful when driving. She suspected this was intentional.
After all, the organization she joined consisted solely of female members, and recently she was dramatically rescued by Ji Qishu during her investigation of human trafficking. Now, the media is buzzing about how the former husband and wife might rekindle their old feelings and possibly remarry.
Other media even caught footage of Ji Qishu staying overnight at her place, on the night of the torrential rain.
Ye Xingguang, sharp-eyed, spotted Chang Qinghua: “Teacher Chang, you’re here.”
Ye Xingguang spoke loudly, leaving Chang Qinghua with nowhere to hide, so she walked in.
“I heard Mr. Ji had a car accident, so I came to check on him.”
Ji Qishu, lying in bed, felt a surge of warmth upon seeing Chang Qinghua walk in. But when he heard her politely call him Mr. Ji, his face hardened, and he snorted, “What, did you come to see if I’m dead? Afraid if I’m gone, no one will give you alimony?”
Standing nearby, Ye Junqing gave Ji Qishu a cold glance upon hearing this.
Ye Xingguang also found Ji Qishu’s words unpleasant. She pulled out a chair: “Teacher Chang, have a seat. Ah Qing and I were planning to have
a candlelight dinner, so I won’t disturb you visiting the patient. Fu Zhuo, do you want to join us?”
Fu Zhuo wanted to say, why should I join your candlelight dinner?
But with a single look from Ye Junqing, Fu Zhuo immediately responded, “Sure, sure.”
With that, the three of them left the room.
Fu Zhuo waved goodbye and said, “I’ll visit you again tomorrow.”
Ji Qishu nodded without a word.
After Ye Xingguang left, she stood smiling in the elevator: “I can tell Teacher Chang is worried about Brother Ji, a woman’s eyes don’t lie, there’s affection in her eyes.”
Ye Junqing stayed silent, simply reached out and lifted her chin to make her look up.
The motion resembled a playful tease of a girl, which made Xingguang’s heart flutter and her face redden: “Why?”
Ye Junqing said, “To see if there’s any affection in your eyes.”
Ye Xingguang: “… There’s only you in my eyes.”
Fu Zhuo, standing nearby, suddenly fed dog food: Can you two stop? There’s still someone else here.
But neither Ye Junqing nor Ye Xingguang seemed to notice Fu Zhuo’s presence, leaving him suddenly feeling downcast. He took out his phone and sent Xing Qiao a WeChat message,
asking when she finishes work.
In the hospital room, Ji Qishu spoke a few more aggravating words, but Chang Qinghua didn’t retaliate as she usually would.
Chang Qinghua stared at Qishu’s face; his complexion didn’t look good, and his expression showed discomfort.
Chang Qinghua sat down and tucked the blanket around him: “What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor said your ex-husband will live a long life.”
“My sister is in this hospital too; I’ll call her to help get in touch with your attending physician. Your attending physician should tell me…”
“Tell you what, is it not living a long life but having a short life?”
Chang Qinghua frowned: “Ji Qishu, shut up!”
She couldn’t bear to hear those last four words.
Chang Danran came quickly upon hearing the news and told her: “Young Master Ji is fine, just a concussion. To be safe, he’ll stay in the hospital for a few days.”
