She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 347 Hungry

Lu Yi had already issued an order for visitors to leave, and Lu Yunlan didn’t continue to stay in his hospital room.

After she left, she suddenly wanted to check on Chen Lingmeng’s condition, just like he had suggested.

Ever since the secondary female character entered the hospital, she had not visited her.

She had heard that the Chen family had come a few times, but she had never met them.

At this moment, she calculated the time in her mind and thought that maybe there would be no one in Chen Lingmeng’s room.

Lu Yunlan went to find a nurse and got the room number for the secondary female character.

It was another VIP ward on the top floor.

When she arrived and stood at the door, looking through the small window on the door, there was no one inside except for Chen Lingmeng lying on the hospital bed alone.

Her face was pale and she had not woken up yet, suffering from much more serious injuries than Lu Yi.

The electrocardiogram was also very weak, and a ventilator covered her mouth and nose. She looked utterly lifeless, and if it hadn’t been for the working electrocardiogram, Lu Yunlan almost thought she had stopped breathing.

Lu Yunlan carefully pushed open the door of the ward.

She wasn’t actually afraid, it was just that thinking of the person now lying here, turned into this state because of Chen Wenzhou, made her feel oddly anxious inside.

She came up to the bedside right as a nurse came in for a check-up.

The nurse sized up Lu Yunlan from top to bottom and asked, "Who are you? Family? I’ve never seen you before."

Lu Yunlan awkwardly said, "I’m her friend. I only came today, sorry."

The nurse nodded, seeing that she didn’t look like a bad person, and didn’t continue to ask further questions, seriously starting to make notes about the secondary female character.

Lu Yunlan really wanted to know the details of her condition and couldn’t help but ask the nurse, "Have you always been in charge of this bed?"

The nurse nodded, "Yes, in cases like intensive care, it’s usually the same nurse to avoid any issues during monitoring."

"Is she in critical condition?"

"Yes, her situation is very serious," the nurse sighed with some regret, "Her leg is severely injured, and she has had major internal bleeding, broken ribs, brain damage, and her skin too. In short, whether she wakes up or not all depends on her fate."

Hearing this, Lu Yunlan felt a chill run through her body.

If she was uncertain before, she was now completely certain that Chen Wenzhou’s initial intention must have been to take the secondary female character’s life.

But for what reason? Why was he so desperate that even knowing Lu Yi was in the car, he still took action with such urgency?

And with Chen Lingmeng’s condition being so serious, he hadn’t even come to visit her.

Just as Lu Yi said, even if they were on bad terms, it shouldn’t have gone this far.

The nurse, noticing Lu Yunlan’s pale face, thought she had overstepped and quickly said, "But you all don’t need to worry too much. With medical technology so advanced nowadays, there might still be hope."

After finishing, the nurse turned and left.

What she didn’t know was that such reassurances, in the eyes of ordinary people, were almost like saying there was no cure.

How severe must someone’s illness be for nurses to reassure family with talk of advanced medical technology?

Lu Yunlan sat beside the bed, silently gazing at Chen Lingmeng’s face, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

Her brother’s words lingered in her mind, and the memory of Shen Heyu’s injury replayed in her head, leaving her suddenly unsure of what to do.

Time slowly passed, and Shen Heyu woke up in the evening. The moment she opened her eyes and saw the white ceiling above her, she was disoriented for a second.

It took a long while before memories just before she fainted gradually resurfaced in her mind.

It was Chen Wenzhou who had pushed her down the stairs, and afterward, all she could hear was Lu Yunlan reproaching her, and then her memory was gone.

Worry for Lu Yunlan’s condition began to take root in her heart. What happened between her and Chen Wenzhou later on? If Chen Wenzhou had pushed her, did he also hit her?

As her mind raced with these thoughts, she heard someone push open the door to the hospital room.

She instinctively looked over and saw Pei Yansi enter, carrying a stack of documents.

He seemed not to expect her to be awake. The moment he saw her eyes open, he paused before curving his lips into a faint, shallow smile, "You’ve finally woken up."

He closed the door, walked over with the documents, and sat by her bed. The look in his eyes was filled with a fond and gentle affection, "I thought it would be a few more days before you could wake up. Do you feel better?"

Such gentleness from Pei Yansi made Shen Heyu feel uneasy. She eyed him curiously and said, "Not bad, but my head still hurts a bit."

"You hit your head and suffered a mild concussion. It should be better in a few days," Pei Yansi said gently, "Other than that, there are no issues. Are you hungry? I can have Zhao Jing bring some food."

Shen Heyu shook her head, "I don’t have an appetite right now. How is Lu Yunlan? How is she doing?"

Pei Yansi’s gaze darkened slightly, but his expression remained controlled. Shen Heyu, still affected by her illness, didn’t notice it and only heard his steady voice,

"She’s fine. You don’t need to worry too much."

"Chen Wenzhou didn’t hit her, did he?"

"He’s still a man after all. Pushing you was just an unintentional slip. He wouldn’t lay a hand on a woman."

Shen Heyu nodded, "As long as he hasn’t bullied Yun Lan, that’s good."

Hearing every one of her words revolve around Lu Yunlan, Pei Yansi felt a mix of emotions in his heart, "Can’t you think of yourself for once? Before passing out, you were worried about her, and now that you’re awake, she’s still all you think about."

Even if not for herself, could she not think of him?

Ever since she had fallen unconscious, he had been here waiting and guarding her, not daring to leave for a moment.

He had just gone to retrieve work documents from Zhao Jing’s car, gone for no more than two minutes.

But as soon as she woke up, not only did she not inquire about herself, she hadn’t even asked about her daughter.

Reminded by him, Shen Heyu realized her oversight and subconsciously lowered her head, "Have you been staying here the whole time? What about our daughter, why don’t you go home and take care of her?"

Pei Yansi said, "There’s an aunt at home, and also grandma. They don’t need me. But you do."

"Yes, I’ve been here guarding you," Pei Yansi purposefully said, "Does that move you?"

If it moved her, could she stay with him forever?

Shen Heyu, of course, knew he was being intentional and gave him a speechless glance.

"That doesn’t seem like you. Stop pretending," she said.

Pei Yansi paused, "Don’t you like it?"

"Why would I like it?"

"Isn’t it gentle?"

"...Who told you I like gentleness?"

Pei Yansi frowned and said no more.

The strategies he had gotten from Zhao Jing were unreliable, so he went online to do his research.

The internet said that gentleness was the key to a woman’s heart.

Why was she different?

After thinking for a moment, Pei Yansi said, "Then do you like someone like me?"
