Chapter 605 I...I didn’t
Chapter 605 I...I didn’t
A commercial vehicle with a body as black as ink, under the skillful and steady operation of the driver Xiang Xiaowu, slowly slid into the orderly parking space of the City Center Hospital like a black swimming fish.
The sunlight shines on the car body, refracting little rays of light, as if covering the car with a layer of golden gauze.
Inside the car, Jiang Shuo could no longer contain his inner anxiety. As soon as the commercial vehicle came to a complete stop, he quickly stretched out his little hand, skillfully unbuckled his seat belt, and then pushed open the door and got out.
At the same time, Mu Xiaoji calmly picked up the lunch box and thermos bucket placed aside, and got out of the car gracefully and calmly.
The father and son walked towards the hospital lobby with determined eyes and hurried steps. As they entered the hospital lobby, they saw a constant stream of patients and medical staff coming and going.
They were each on their own path towards their desired goal, each with a different expression on their face.
The patients either look haggard with the pain of illness or express their hope for recovery;
The medical staff looked focused, their steps hurried, their eyes revealing professionalism and responsibility.
They are like soldiers on the battlefield, fighting a silent battle against the disease every minute.
Mu Xiaoji suddenly stopped, leaned forward slightly, looked at Jiang Shuo gently, and said softly:
"Jiang Shuo, Mom is in the orthopedic ward over there. You can take these things and go visit her. As for me, I have to go to the VIP ward to see Andreas."
Jiang Shuo's face, originally full of expectation, was instantly filled with displeasure. He raised his head, stared straight at Mu Xiaoji, and asked, "Do you look down on your mother that much?"
This sudden questioning left Mu Xiaoji speechless. He opened his mouth and stammered, "I...I didn't."
Her eyes flickered unconsciously, as if she was struggling fiercely inside, and for a moment she didn't know how to explain it to her son.
Seeing this, Jiang Shuo took the thermos box and bucket from Mu Xiaoji's hands without saying a word. He pursed his lips tightly, turned around and strode towards the orthopedic area on the left.
That little figure, at this moment, revealed a sense of stubbornness and stubbornness. Mu Xiaoji looked at his son's stubborn little back,
Filled with helplessness and guilt, he called out awkwardly, "Jiang Shuo..."
However, as Jiang Shuo's figure gradually disappeared in the bustling crowd, his voice was gradually drowned out.
Mu Xiaoji lowered his head helplessly and took a deep breath, as if to expel all the frustration in his heart with this breath. Then, he sorted out his emotions and walked straight to the elevator.
The elevator entrance was already crowded with people, and Mu Xiaoji rushed into the elevator with the crowd.
He stood quietly in the corner, his eyes fixed on the constantly changing numbers in the elevator, his mind full of thoughts.
Finally, the elevator reached the VIP floor. He bowed slightly and said politely, "Excuse me, please make way."
Then he squeezed out of the elevator sideways and hurried straight to Andreas's ward.
Arriving at the door of the ward, Mu Xiaoji gently pushed it open, his movements so gentle as if he was afraid of disturbing the people in the room.
Andreas was lying quietly on the big snow-white bed, with the sunlight shining on him through the window.
His face was coated with a soft halo, making him look exceptionally peaceful.
Mu Xiaoji closed the door gently, walked lightly to the bedside.
Andreas seemed to notice the movement and slowly opened his eyes. A light and gentle smile instantly bloomed on his face. He said softly, "Mu, good morning."
The voice was like the breeze in the morning, soft and soothing. Mu Xiaoji slowly sat down in the chair beside him, his eyes showing complicated emotions.
He felt worried, grateful, and a hint of indescribable confusion. He asked with concern, "How do you... feel now?"
Andreas smiled with relief, and there was a reassuring power in his smile, and he said: "I'm fine, Mu, don't worry.
You look so tired, you should rest at home. I have professional doctors and nurses to take good care of you, and my mercenary team members are always watching over you, so there will be no problem.
A warm feeling welled up in Mu Xiaoji's heart, and he said gratefully, "Thank you, Andreas. If it weren't for you, I might..."
As he spoke, he shook his head slightly, as if he didn't want to recall the bad scene that might have happened.
Andreas shook his head slightly and said firmly, “No, I won’t let that happen.
Like you said to me at the mall, you're not going to let anything happen to me, so now, uh-huh... I'm fine."
A hint of doubt and inquiry flashed across Mu Xiaoji's eyes. He frowned slightly, looked at Andreas with a flickering gaze, and asked:
"Andreas, why did you come to Kuncheng? You should know that your status and position are far more precious than my life. There is absolutely no need for you to risk your life here."
Andreas shook his head slightly, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, as if he was recalling the past, and slowly said:
"Oh no no no, Mu, don't underestimate yourself. You know, in Kate's heart, you are as important as her life.
In a sense, you are far more noble than me. For two years, Kate was in my house every day.
He and I have never met with anything but respect, never even looking me in the eye. Even when I eliminated that idiot Derek for him, he didn't even offer a simple thank you.
Mu Xiaoji listened quietly, completely unaware of the past entanglement. He simply lowered his head, waiting for Andreas's next words.
Andreas paused, his eyes a little blurry, as if his mind was completely immersed in memories.
"I knew Karina loved him deeply and she had dressed up carefully and gone to his room to look for him.
However, he fainted in the cold bathroom due to an allergic reaction to the unique aromatherapy, and I was lucky enough to pick him up and take him to the hospital.
In fact, I knew in my heart that he approached me on purpose several times and used me to anger Karina.
But even so, as long as he needs me to do something, no matter what, I will satisfy him without hesitation."
At this point, the corners of Andreas' mouth rose slightly, revealing a bitter yet sweet smile, which was a complex emotion about the time he had spent with Jiang Chengyu.
Mu Xiaoji listened to Andreas's story with mixed feelings in his heart. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. He could only lower his head silently and digest the information.
Andreas adjusted his mood a little, and then said: "I came to Kuncheng this time not because of you,
So, Mu, you don't have to feel guilty. I came here to find that guy, Al Robuk."
When Mu Xiaoji heard this special name, his originally depressed spirit instantly lifted up. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Andreas.
His eyes were filled with surprise as he hurriedly asked, "El Robuk? Who is he?"
Andreas narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression became serious, and he said slowly: “Al Robuk is an extremely mysterious and difficult figure in the business circle.
On the surface, he was running some legitimate business activities, involved in many fields, such as finance, real estate, etc.
But secretly, he has inextricable connections with various dark forces. He is good at manipulating everything behind the scenes.
He exploited the conflicts between various factions to seek personal gain, using ruthless and covert methods, and many people fell into his trap without realizing it.
Mu Xiaoji frowned, and became wary of this unknown person. He asked, "Then why are you looking for him...?"
Andreas's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he said coldly: "He once tampered with my family business, tried to sabotage it behind the scenes, and wanted to embezzle my property.
Although his plan ultimately failed, I will never let him go easily. Over the years, I have been secretly investigating his whereabouts and the distribution of his power. Now that I know he has appeared in Kuncheng, I will naturally not let this opportunity go.
Mu Xiaoji nodded silently, and with a little more understanding and concern for Andreas's situation, he said, "Then you have to be careful. Since he is so cunning, he will definitely not give in easily."
Andreas smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, Mu. Since I dared to come here, I have already made sufficient preparations. All these years of preparation have not been in vain. He, El Robuk, will not be able to escape this time."
The atmosphere in the ward grew tense because of this conversation, as if an invisible war was about to begin...
Jiang Shuo carefully carried the thermos bucket and the thermos box, with brisk but cautious steps, like a nimble little deer, walking towards the ward where Xiao Yue was.
She came to the door of the ward, stretched out her little hand, gently grasped the door handle, and slowly pushed the door open. Her movements were so gentle as if she was afraid to disturb the tranquility in the room.
As soon as he stepped into the ward, Jiang Shuo's eyes instantly caught sight of his mother who was half leaning on the pillow.
I saw that one of Xiaoyue's legs was firmly fixed on the frame. The fixing device looked professional and rigorous.
It is a fixation device commonly used in hospitals for patients with fractures. It is designed to provide stable support for injured bones and promote better healing.
Seeing that the person coming was his well-behaved and sensible son, Xiao Yue's face, which had been a little haggard due to his injury, instantly bloomed into a smile as bright as the warm spring sun.
She raised her chin slightly and called out affectionately, "Stinky treasure, why are you here?"
Seeing this, Jiang Shuo's eyes were full of concern. He quickened his pace and approached the bedside like a gust of wind.
He carefully placed the thermos bucket and box in his hands on the bedside table, which was spotlessly clean and shone with a soft luster under the light of the ward.
Jiang Shuo looked up into his mother's eyes, his concern evident in his words. He asked softly, "Mom, how do you feel now? Does it still hurt?"
Xiao Yue reached out and gently stroked his son's head, his fingers gently running through Jiang Shuo's soft hair.
As if conveying endless love and warmth, she said happily: "It doesn't hurt anymore, baby, where is daddy?
He was injured in the abdomen that day and his condition was already not optimistic. Suddenly he received an emergency call. He probably didn't even have time to eat breakfast before he left in a hurry.
I don’t know how his wound is recovering, whether he has taken good care of it, and whether it will cause infection or something like that…” Speaking of this, Xiao Yue’s eyes revealed deep worry.
