When she returned to the ward, Li Weixi had just stopped talking. She stared blankly at her father's face and recalled what Lin Jiu had said to her.
A pair of hands suddenly rested on her shoulders, startling her slightly. She subconsciously turned around and took a step back.
"Sissi?"
Lin Jiu's hands were still in the air. He was slightly stunned. He had not expected Li Weixi's reaction.
Seeing who it was, Li Weixi felt relieved. She said apologetically, "I'm sorry. Did I scare you? I was thinking about something just now and didn't notice you coming in. "
"It's okay." Lin Jiu withdrew his hands, pulled out a chair and sat down. She had more or less guessed what Li Weixi was thinking.
She patted the chair next to her and motioned for Li Weixi to sit down. She said, "I've seen the surveillance footage. Xu Shaohua's people have been here. They have been loitering around the ward on the third floor for a long time."
"Will she be suspicious?" Li Weixi's heart tightened again. "I'm worried that she will find her way here."
"She won't." Lin Jiu said with certainty. "If she had such an IQ, she wouldn't have been suppressed by us for so long. She wouldn't have fallen into our trap step by step."
"Is that so …"
Li Weixi looked uncertain, which made Lin Jiu feel helpless. "Did you forget what I said just now? Don't worry too much about Xu Shaohua. We have so many people here to help you. Can't we defeat her alone? "
Li Weixi did not answer. She looked at Li Shangde in a daze. Her mind was full of Xu Shaohua's vicious face.
She knew that Lin Jiu was right. Xu Shaohua was not that smart. The reason why she was so afraid was because Xu Shaohua had once treated her cruelly and maliciously. However, this shadow had always been planted in her heart, making her feel uncomfortable and uneasy.
It was also because of her fear of Xu Shaohua that she had not dared to take the initiative to do anything for so long. She had always chosen to avoid Xu Shaohua.
A pair of hands held hers and Lin Jiu's voice came from the side. "Sissi, I don't want to force you to do anything. If you think this is good, then keep it this way and wait until we completely suppress Xu Shaohua. By then, you won't have anything to worry about, right?"
Li Weixi turned his head and met Lin Jiu's serious eyes. He couldn't help but nod.
Lin Jiu smiled. "Do you want to stay a little longer?"
"It's okay. Let's go back." Li Weixi glanced at Li Shangde. The confusion in her eyes disappeared and turned into gentleness. "I've said what I wanted to say. Seeing that my father is in good condition, I'm relieved."
"That's good. But we have to go out for a walk." Lin Jiu waved his phone and said, "We have guests at home. Let's not join in the fun. It's quite boring."
Li Weixi nodded. She already felt that she could not deal with an old man. She did not know what kind of person this guest was. It was better not to go.
The two of them left the hospital together and took a car to a nearby shopping mall.
After getting out of the car, Lin Jiu went straight to one of the shops. On the way, he explained to Li Weixi, "That shop is owned by my friend. In the future, when you come here and mention my name, I'll give you a 10% discount."
Li Weixi smiled and did not reply. She took Lin Jiu's words as a joke.
The two of them walked to the front of the shop, only to see that the door was closed and locked. The shop was also covered with cloth. Obviously, it was not open yet.
Lin Jiu looked disappointed. Holding the phone, he muttered, "I didn't hear her say that the shop was not open today."
Li Weixi was about to say something when she saw a flash in the shop. It seemed that there was a light.
She narrowed her eyes and looked, but did not see anything. She patted Lin Jiu's shoulder and said, "I just saw a light turn on inside. Is there someone inside?"
"Is that so?" Lin Jiu stopped dialing the phone and looked inside suspiciously.
It was still pitch-black. There was nothing.
"Maybe I saw wrongly. We …"
Before he could finish his sentence, the shop flashed again. Then, a light came on at the counter, illuminating a figure.
Li Weixi swallowed her words and looked at Lin Jiu. The two of them were not sure if it was someone in the shop or a thief.
Just as they were hesitating, a head popped out from behind the counter and seemed to be talking to the person next to her.
Lin Jiu exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, she's here." As she spoke, she walked up to the door and shook it to attract the attention of the people inside. At the same time, she explained to Li Weixi, "This is the friend I was talking about."
Li Weixi had already guessed it when Lin Jiu exclaimed in surprise.
The people in the shop noticed them and waved at Lin Jiu before opening the door for them.
"What are you doing?" Lin Jiu asked. "Why aren't you open?"
"The light is broken. I'm fixing it." Bai Lu opened the door and let them in. "Come in and have a seat. It'll be ready soon. I'll treat you to dinner."
"Okay. I want to eat in the food city on the third floor."
"Okay."
Seeing that they were here, Bai Lu locked the door and led them to the counter, where she brought out two chairs.
The chefs below the counter glanced at them and went back to their work. They complained to Bai Lu about the trouble and secretly asked for more money.
Bai Lu ignored them and looked at Li Weixi. "This is your brother's fiancée. She looks very obedient."
"Of course my brother has good taste." As Lin Jiu spoke, he introduced her to Li Weixi. "This is my friend Bai Lu. You can buy whatever you want here in the future. Put it on her tab."
Li Weixi was about to refuse, when Bai Lu nodded frankly. "Okay. I'll ask your brother for more money after she leaves. Then, I can buy more clothes."
"Stingy."
Lin Jiu snorted, but Li Weixi was instantly relieved. Bai Lu seemed to be joking, but she was actually helping her out. Li Weixi's impression of her immediately improved.
After a long while, the electrician crawled out and wiped the sweat on his forehead. "This won't do. I have to find someone to help me. It won't be easy for me to do it alone."
Seeing that he wasn't joking this time, Bai Lu waved her hand and said, "Then find someone reliable. I'll pay for it."
"Okay. I'll call my friend over." The electrician nodded and stood up to stretch his limbs. He took out his phone and called his friend for help.
