Shen Manjun's words fanned the flames, completely driving Xiao Zheng crazy on the sickbed. You can't play it like this. Do you really have to slander me to the point of breaking up your family?
Xiao Zheng realized that Shen Manjun's mouth was definitely not any weaker than his. Moreover, Lin Huayin was present at the moment. If this woman wanted to slander him, she would be able to do it in every way. He could not help but shut his mouth and stay out of it.
If he continued to argue, this meddling woman might say that he had slept with her when he kissed her. That was too crazy.
It was obvious that Shen Manjun was fighting one against two. Not only was she not at a disadvantage, but she had also completely suppressed the husband and wife. It could be said to be a complete victory. Her morale was high.
But she also knew that Lin Huayin was not weaker than her. It was just that she did not want to lose face and compete with her in this kind of unreasonable pestering. In Shen Manjun's eyes, Lin Huayin was still a delicate woman who drank coffee, ate western food, and was used to the beauty of spring. She would not throw caution to the wind like herself.
At that moment, she did not push her luck. She walked around Lin Huayin and walked out of the restroom. When she passed by the bed, she threw Xiao Zheng a suggestive glance and left leisurely, twisting her voluptuous waist.
Originally, Brother Ah Zheng was already a little overwhelmed by Shen Manjun's unreasonable pestering. But when she really left, Xiao Zheng became more and more uneasy. At the end of the day, he and Shen Manjun had only met a few times. At most, they could be considered acquaintances. They might not even be friends. Even if she made up things out of nothing, Xiao Zheng could still laugh it off and not pursue the matter. But in front of Lin Huayin —
If getting along with Shen Manjun was a farce and getting along with Blue Heart was a romantic drama, then getting along with Lin Huayin was a serious drama on CCTV. There was no room for falsehood. There was no room for even a speck of sand. Trying to bluff his way through? Make a joke?
Lin Huayin would not give him such a chance.
Therefore, Xiao Zheng felt uneasy. He wondered if this cold, strong woman would cry, throw a tantrum, hang herself, or even go back to her mother's home in a fit of anger like the main wife in most movies and TV works.
Although it didn't fit in with Lin Huayin's style, didn't women always use this method to suppress men in family disputes?
Xiao Zheng had already mentally prepared himself and was ready to welcome the storm that Lin Huayin had unleashed.
However, after waiting for a full five minutes, Lin Huayin still hadn't come out from the washroom. There was no other sound in the ward except for the sound of the air conditioner.
This caused Xiao Zheng to feel even more uneasy and hesitant. What was that woman planning to do?
Finally. Lin Huayin appeared.
There was no change in her expression. It was as if everything that had just happened was just a dream. It didn't leave any traces in her heart. She had even forgotten about her quarrel with Shen Manjun.
She walked closer to the bed and calmly sat down on the chair that Blue Heart and Shen Manjun had sat on. Her eyes were emotionless as she slowly looked at Xiao Zheng. "If your wound hurts too much, let the doctor prescribe you some painkillers."
What was going on?
Xiao Zheng was even more confused.
Shouldn't she be scolding him? Why was she worrying about him instead?
Before Xiao Zheng could say anything, Lin Huayin continued, "The company will reimburse your medical expenses. You can stay in the hospital for as long as you want."
"It's fine. I'll stay for at most a week before I can go back to work, "Xiao Zheng vowed.
"You're fired," Lin Huayin said expressionlessly. Her gaze was extremely cold.
Boom!
Xiao Zheng's head instantly exploded. He completely lost the ability to think.
"What — what did you say?" Xiao Zheng's expression dimmed as he said in disbelief.
Lin Huayin didn't avoid it. She coldly stared at Xiao Zheng and said word by word, "I said. You're fired. From now on, you're no longer Xin Ao's employee. "
"But I just made a great contribution to Xin Ao, and I was injured because of it …" Xiao Zheng powerlessly struggled.
"The company will provide you with bonuses and compensation," Lin Huayin said calmly.
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng felt a chill down his spine. He subtly looked at Lin Huayin and probed, "What do you want to do?"
"Our relationship as husband and wife still have 41 days before the contract expires," Lin Huayin said with a cold gaze. "The doctor told me that you'll need to stay in the hospital for at least a month. But I hope you can stay in the hospital for 41 days. In this way, you don't have to bear my unintentional cold eyes, and I won't be upset. "
Xiao Zheng was dumbfounded. He also understood.
He understood what Lin Huayin meant. He also understood the meaning of her words.
She said that she wanted him to stay in the hospital for 41 days. Because she didn't want to live with him anymore. She said that the company would compensate him and bear his medical expenses because she didn't want to owe Xiao Zheng anything.
Xiao Zheng knew that there was another unspoken sentence that she didn't say: whether I'm pregnant or not, you can't go back to Xin Ao, and you can't continue to live in the Lin Family. Because I will be unhappy and upset when I see you.
That's enough. She didn't want to have anything to do with Xiao Zheng anymore. Even if she was pregnant, she would find the best of both worlds. Her only request was that she would never see him again.
"Have you decided?"
After a long silence, Xiao Zheng asked with a gloomy face.
Lin Huayin glanced at him and didn't say anything.
Yes. She decided. Just now, she finally made this decision. Maybe there would be a short period of discomfort, but for her, it was the best and the most correct choice.
She didn't want a life of ups and downs, nor did she want a life that was too chaotic. She had her own ideals and the life she wanted. But Xiao Zheng couldn't give her what she wanted. No man could give her. Especially her father.
"Okay, I'll resign." Xiao Zheng forced a smile and then carefully took out the key that was still warm from under the pillow.
The key was tied with a very ordinary red thread, which was carelessly done by Xiao Zheng to prevent the key from being lost.
He reached out and handed the key to Lin Huayin. "I made the key secretly. I'll give it back to you."
A strange expression flashed across Lin Huayin's expressionless face. She didn't reach out to take it. "You still have to go back to get your luggage. Just put the key on the shoe cabinet when you leave."
Xiao Zheng's reaction was beyond Lin Huayin's expectation. She didn't expect that Xiao Zheng would be so straightforward, nor did she expect that Xiao Zheng had secretly engraved the key.
When Lin Huayin drove him out before, he was not so easy to talk to. He looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water and refused to leave. His performance this time really made it too easy for Lin Huayin to carry out her plan.
"Well." Xiao Zheng smiled and nodded. "I have a lot of things. It will take some effort for you to move them to the door."
Lin Huayin didn't answer. She got up with cold eyes and said, "Good night."
After that, she walked out of the ward without looking back and closed the door.
After exiting the room, she stood motionless on the spot. Her expression was unexpectedly complicated and throbbing.
She didn't think about driving Xiao Zheng away. It had been a long time since she had had such a thought.
After slowly getting along with Xiao Zheng, she had been used to the life of having a man at home. Especially since this man rarely affected her work and her life.
From the initial disgust and rejection, to the slow adaptation, and then to the worry and nervousness at noon today. Lin Huayin even thought that even if there was no love, as long as they had children, she could still go on with Xiao Zheng. Just like ordinary people or relatives, they came to the end of their lives.
But tonight, everything changed.
It was as if history had repeated itself and destroyed all her illusions.
She still couldn't accept it. She really couldn't accept it. But why did her heart ache faintly when she couldn't accept it?
How could the pen end so plainly? The story didn't admit that it was ordinary at the beginning. Using every minute of excessive burning to determine where the plot should go?
That was probably it.
