The next day
When Shuxin woke up, she saw that she had deep eye bags and looked haggard in the mirror. She put on some light makeup and headed to Yao Huiqin's place for breakfast before heading to work.
After leaving the villa, Shuxin dialed Ji Chifeng's number. "Doctor Ji, how is Yanqing … Okay, I got it. It's not convenient for me to go over to the hospital now, so please take care of him …"
"How's Fifth Uncle?" Shuxin had just hung up when Huo Jibai suddenly spoke from behind her, giving her a fright.
Shuxin rolled her eyes at him. "Can't you say something before you speak? Don't you know that you can scare someone to death? "
Huo Jibai looked at her for a moment and said softly, "I'm sorry."
Shuxin was stunned. Did the sun rise from the west today? Huo Jibai actually did not argue with her and even apologized to her. No, it seemed like he did not argue with her after he came back last night. He even cooperated with her to comfort Yao Huiqin. Although he only said 'okay', Shuxin knew that he had already given her a lot of face.
Shuxin stared at Huo Jibai suspiciously.
Huo Jibai felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze. Just as he was about to turn his head away, Shuxin tugged on his clothes. "Don't move. What's wrong with the corner of your mouth? Did you get into a fight with someone again? "
"No."
"Are you still trying to lie to me?" Shuxin frowned. "You were obviously beaten up by someone. To think that I was still wondering if you had changed. Look at you, I'm slapping myself in the face the next second."
Huo Jibai released his jacket from Shuxin's hands. "I was a little impulsive the night before when I found out about Fifth Uncle's condition. I went to the hospital director's office to settle the score with Ji Chifeng. I punched him …"
"You're such a jerk. Why did you hit Doctor Ji?"
"Wasn't I worried then? I just feel that if Ji Chifeng didn't operate on Fifth Uncle, Fifth Uncle wouldn't be unconscious. "
Shuxin reached out and poked Huo Jibai's shoulder. "Can't you think before you act? With your Fifth Uncle's personality, would he change his mind because of a doctor? If it wasn't Doctor Ji, it would have been someone else. "
"I know, but I didn't think so much at that time …" Huo Jibai cleared his throat uncomfortably. "I was wrong."
Shuxin: "…" He was apologizing and admitting his mistake. Had he really grown up?
But that's not right. "With Doctor Ji's personality, he wouldn't have hit you."
Huo Jibai gently touched his bruised lips. "It wasn't Ji Chifeng who hit me."
"Who is that?"
"Shen Tingxi." Huo Jibai saw that Shuxin was a little surprised, so he explained, "When I hit Ji Chifeng, Shen Tingxi happened to see it."
Shuxin understood. This seemed like something Shen Tingxi would do.
"I have to thank him for punching me."
"Ah?" Shuxin didn't quite understand. What kind of logic was that to say thank you after being hit?
Huo Jibai didn't explain further. He walked forward. "I'll go to the office with you."
"Why are you going to the office if you're not going to school?" Shuxin followed him.
"The final exams are over. The school is on holiday."
"Oh." Huo Jibai's legs were too long. Shuxin had to jog to catch up with him. "Then why are you going to the office?"
