One Thousand and Twenty Worries (Three)

It turned out that he had been discharged from the hospital a long time ago.

Since there was a doctor at home, she didn't need to worry about it.

Yes, every one of his friends, whether from the Tang family or the Fu family, was an expert. Why should she worry about such a small problem?

Shu Nian suppressed this worry in his heart and returned to his father's ward.

"You didn't even prepare an umbrella when you left, and I was worried." Aunt Gui took a dry towel to wipe her hair, "Go change your clothes, I'll dry them for you. It's autumn soon, don't pull moisture."

"Okay." Shu Nian took a white shirt from the cupboard and changed it in the bathroom of the ward.

Aunt Gui asked while drying her clothes: "Where is Mu Yang? He has been here these days, why is he gone tonight?"

"Maybe he is busy."

"Didn't you call to show your concern?"

"He is so busy, so I won't call."

Aunt Gui looked at her and knew that she was not in a good mood, but she still advised: "Niannian, you can't be stubborn in this marriage. It is still necessary to show concern occasionally."

Shu Nian pulled his lips and opened the book, "Aunt Gui, I know, don't worry about me."

"How can I not worry? But you treat you like your own daughter." Aunt Gui sighed, "You and your dad, both of you are worry-free."

Shu Nian smiled at Aunt Gui, looked at her busy back, and couldn't help sighing: "Aunt Gui, it would be great if you were really my mother. But my dad and I probably don't have that blessing."

Speaking of his mother, Shu Nian felt a little sad and his eyes dimmed a little.

Aunt Gui was stunned for a moment, a bit uncomfortable flashed across her face, and then she smiled, "You are just a kid, talking nonsense."

Shu Nian smiled, lowered his head, and continued reading.

The phone, at this moment, rang briefly, Shu Nian put down the book in his hand, and picked up the phone. A message flashed on the screen.

From an unfamiliar number.

She clicked it, and a photo popped up on the screen.

Shu Nian was stunned.

The photo was very messy. The man's shirt and the woman's pajamas were thrown together. There were also women's lace panties and men's underwear. Shu Nian recognized the man's shirt, which was the one Xiang Muyang wore tonight. The word 'x' was embroidered on the cuffs, which was unique to him.

Under the photo, there was a line of provocative words.

"Shu Nian, you probably haven't even seen your husband's underwear, right? Is such a marriage really interesting?"

Shu Nian laughed.

What a funny and ridiculous trick.

She could have replied, but she really didn't want to type a few more words for such a provocation. She couldn't do it just to be jealous of Mu Yang and another woman.

"What's wrong? What message took you so long to read?" Aunt Gui saw that she looked strange and couldn't help asking one more question.

Shu Nian didn't want Aunt Gui to worry about him, so he just shook his head and deleted the message as if nothing had happened.

"It was Mu Yang. He said he was busy with social events and wouldn't come tonight."

"Look how busy he is on weekdays. He's still socializing so late. In the future, you have to pay more attention to him. Do you understand?"

"Well, of course." Shu Nian agreed. He was busy, but he was busy with women.

Shu Nian cast his eyes back to the book, and was very glad that he didn't really have any hope for him, so he wouldn't be disappointed again.

At night.

It was pitch black outside, and the rain didn't stop all night.

Shu Dafu and Aunt Gui were both asleep. Shu Nian was reading a book alone. In the quiet atmosphere, she could only hear the sound of rain outside the window. It was already late at night, but Shu Nian was not sleepy at all.

Her cell phone rang at this time.

In the quiet atmosphere, the ringing sounded sharp and abrupt. Shu Nian was startled, and almost immediately turned off the sound for fear of disturbing the couple inside. She took the phone and saw a strange number flashing on the screen.

She pondered for a moment and frowned slightly.

Could it be a provocative call from Ning Meng? However, this number did not seem to be the same as before.

After thinking about it, Shu Nian got up and walked out. After closing the door, she answered the phone.

"Shu Nian?"

"It's me. Who are you?" Shu Nian was not sure if she knew the other party.

"I'm Tang Jifeng. We've met before."

"...Oh." Shu Nian remembered that he had seen him once in Ye Yan's ward before.

But...

"It's so late, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Where are you? I'll come to find you."

Shu Nian was confused by the nonsense, "Mr. Tang, you have something to talk to me about."

"You have the key to Ye Yan's house in Yunting Waterside, right? He stayed in there alone, and no one answered me no matter how I called the door." Tang Jifeng was a little impatient over there. He had originally arranged a video conference with Ye Yan at 9 o'clock in the evening, but Ye Yan said he wanted to sleep in Yunting Waterside. And then, there was nothing else. How could Tang Jifeng not be annoyed? "This guy, I guess he's sleeping like a dead pig. But he wasn't so hard to wake up before."

When Shu Nian heard this, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.

"I'm in the hospital now, I'll give you the key."

"No, it's not safe for a girl to go out alone at this late hour. Besides, I'll drive faster. You just wait at the door of the hospital." Tang Jifeng has always been a gentleman, how could he let a girl walk outside at night? What's more, it's raining so hard outside.

He said a few words, and hung up the phone regardless of whether Shu Nian would see him off or not.

Shu Nian held the phone and stood in the corridor for half a minute. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. The anxiety that had been hovering in her heart for half a night finally burst out at this moment. She turned back to the ward, hurriedly took out the key to the door of Yunting Waterside from her bag, and hurried out again.

——————

Shu Nian stood at the door of the hospital waiting, looking from afar. It was only a few minutes, but it felt like a long time had passed.

Until a sports car drove over and stopped in the rain. Tang Jifeng pushed the door and got out of the car. He wanted to go over to get the key, but Shu Nian had already rushed into the rain.

"Why did you get off? It's raining so hard, I can go over and get it."

"I'll go with you." Shu Nian handed him the key, and got into the car without caring what Tang Jifeng said.

Tang Jifeng was stunned for a moment and returned to the driver's seat. Shu Nian didn't care about the rain on his body, and grabbed the seat belt and buckled it. Tang Jifeng started the car and looked at her, "You seem very nervous."

"How long have you called him, and there is no sound from inside?" Shu Nian did not reply, but just asked.

"A while."

"Are you sure he is inside?"

"His cell phone is ringing in the room, and no one answers it for a long time."

Shu Nian's face tightened a little, and he looked at Tang Jifeng, "Can you please drive faster?"
