Best Delinquent Wife's Order: Rise Again, Hubby Chapter 1118: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (203)

Chapter 1118: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (203)

Zuo Yue’s gaze froze. In her impression, Xu Chengfeng had never been sick. He was like a strong person who could protect any weak person around him and block the cold and bitter rain. However, she never thought that he would fall sick one day.

“Some people are not sick, but once they get sick, they can almost lose half their lives.”Ainte said lightly and looked at Zuo Yue’s eyes again.”Since Boss is the heartless person you mentioned, it seems that even if he dies from a fever, it has nothing to do with you.”

With that, Ainte moved his hand away from the door behind her and turned to leave.

Zuo Yue stood in front of the door in a daze for a while before she suddenly looked up at his back.””If you’re so seriously ill, why don’t you go to the hospital?”

“I don’t know.” Ainte stopped in his tracks and said coldly with his back facing her,””Maybe it’s because it’s rare for him to fall sick, and it’s rare for him to be so distracted by certain people and certain things. Maybe he can fall asleep like this. Maybe this feeling of not knowing the world can help him escape from too many things. No matter how strong a man is, there are times when he’s weak. Besides, Boss isn’t the kind of person who would allow others to see him weak. The hospital is not a place for him to treat his illness.”

Zuo Yue secretly bit her lip.” Since you’re sick but you refuse to go to the hospital, why are you telling me now?””

Ainte turned around abruptly because of her words. His eyes seemed to be cold and disappointed.”Yeah, why would I tell you? In this world, the only person who could be more ruthless than the BOSS was probably you, Zuo Yue.”

As he spoke, he suddenly took out a gilded card from his pocket and threw it coldly in front of her. Zuo Yue raised her hand to take it. She lowered her eyes and saw that the address of the villa that Zuo Yue lived in near the medical university three years ago and the house number that had never changed were written on it.

“Boss doesn’t have the habit of hiring servants. This villa has been empty for a few years. Recently, Boss has been living there alone. He has been unconscious for more than twenty-four hours now. Whether he lives or dies is beyond my control.”

After saying that, Ainte looked at her coldly again and turned around.

Zuo Yue held the gold-plated card in her hand and asked softly when Ainte was about to enter the elevator,””Did he let you come?”

Ainte turned around.” Boss didn’t allow me to do so much. If you don’t want to go, you don’t have to feel pressured. After all, he doesn’t know what I just said to you, and he doesn’t intend to let you know. After all, he just planned to return to the United States to settle down, but he suddenly decided to leave the United States. I don’t know the reason either. Of course, perhaps you do.”

Zuo Yue looked at Ainte. Ainte didn’t say anything else and had already entered the elevator.

Someone who had only recently planned to return to the United States to settle down…

Zuo Yue stood outside the data room for a long time and did not move. It was not until a company security guard who pa.s.sed by looked at her in confusion that she nodded apologetically and turned around to go into the data room to get her things.

Three hours after work, Zuo Yue walked out of the KIng Group building and smiled as she declined the invitations of a few colleagues who wanted to go out for dinner. She stood quietly under the American flag in front of the square opposite the company and turned to look at the sunset.

It was a hot summer day. The sun was about to set. It should have been cooler, but it had become extremely hot. Previously, his phone had warned him that there would be a heavy rain tonight. This kind of heat before the rain made him feel irritated to a certain extent.

The taxi stopped in front of her. Zuo Yue opened the door. Before the driver could ask anything, she directly reported the address of the villa near the medical university.

It was not far from the villa. It was only a ten-minute drive.

When the car stopped in front of the villa, Zuo Yue stayed in the car for a moment without moving. The driver asked her softly if there was anything else. Zuo Yue came back to her senses and shook her head gently before turning around and getting out of the car.

She looked up at the villa that she hadn’t come back to see for three years. The past that she had deliberately forgotten three years ago reappeared in front of her little by little. She looked at the time and walked in. When she reached the door of the villa, she raised her hand and was about to press the doorbell when she suddenly thought of the gold-plated card that Ainte had given her.

So the door code of this villa had not been changed until now?

She raised her hand and paused for a moment before trying to press the pa.s.sword lock. It was drizzling behind her and a damp breeze was blowing.

Two soft beeps came from the door, and the door opened.

Zuo Yue stood in front of the door, stunned for a while. Actually, she did not quite understand why she suddenly came here after work. She had clearly made it clear before that they had nothing to do with each other.

What was she doing here?

Her footsteps twitched in front of the door for a moment. She opened the door and walked in. It was already past five in the evening. The sky was only slightly darker, but because of the rain, it was even darker than usual. The lights in the villa’s hall were not switched on, but Zuo Yue felt a cold and empty illusion after entering the door.

Why did it feel like no one had lived here recently? Was Ainte sure he didn’t say the wrong place?

Zuo Yue hesitated as she searched for the switch in her memory and turned on the lights. In an instant, the hall was extremely bright. Everything seemed to be the same as when she left three years ago. Even the new crystal tea table was still in the same position.

Zuo Yue looked in the direction of the coffee table and sofa, then slowly turned her eyes to the bedroom on the first floor where Xu Chengfeng used to live.

He turned his gaze to the stairs leading to the second floor.

She walked in with her bag and changed her shoes. Then, she looked around and walked to the sofa. She reached out her hand and gently touched the coffee table.

Although it was cold and looked as if no one had lived here before, the coffee table was spotless. Someone must have cleaned it every day.

Zuo Yue was standing beside the coffee table in a daze. Some of the memories that had been suppressed by her strong self-esteem surged into her head wave after wave. Before she could come back to her senses, she suddenly heard the sound of a gla.s.s falling from the master bedroom on the first floor.

She snapped back to her senses, turned around, and quickly walked over. Without thinking, she pushed open the bedroom door.

Xu Chengfeng had just woken up and was thirsty. He tried to reach for a gla.s.s of water on the bedside table, but he knocked it over. The gla.s.s full of water rolled off the bedside table and onto the ground. He slowly sat up and coughed lightly. He lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed when the door was suddenly opened. He paused and turned to look in the direction of the door.

The lights in the bedroom were not switched on. Zuo Yue only glanced inside and could see his condition. She raised her hand to turn on the bedroom lights without hesitation. At the same time, she looked at Xu Chengfeng’s pale and haggard face and the faint green stubble on both sides of his chin.
