"I'll be right back, okay?"

His voice was very soft, as if he was coaxing a child. Jiang Lan pursed her lips and still held him tightly with her fingers.

Under his gaze, Jiang Lan had to let him go.

Lu Jingchi pondered for a moment, then turned around and walked out.

Jiang Lan stared at his back, watching him open the door and then closing it.

She bit her lip, lowered her head silently, and stared at her fingertips.

After Lu Jingchi came out, he took out his hand and was about to make a call when the sound of high heels suddenly came from behind him.

He frowned and looked back.

As expected, Xia Yan was standing behind him, looking at him with a pitiful expression, like an abandoned puppy.

Lu Jingchi stopped dialing, picked up his phone, and turned to look at her.

Xia Yan whispered: "Jingchi."

"What?"

Xia Yan's eyes were red. She approached Lu Jingchi cautiously and looked at him with tears in her eyes, "Why are you so indifferent to me?"

Lu Jingchi looked at her calmly and was not moved by her crying. He said, "I have already made it very clear what I need to say."

Xia Yan stretched out her hand, grabbed his arm, and choked: "Why? Are you in love with that mute...Jiang Lan?"

Lu Jingchi frowned without trace. He was silent for a moment and brushed Xia Yan's hand away.

"I can't explain it to you, but I hope you'd better not appear in front of her. Can you remember?"

Xia Yan lowered her head and was silent for a long time.

Just when Lu Jingchi was getting impatient, she suddenly said, "Then can we still be the same as before?"

"What was it like before?" Lu Jingchi asked her.

Xia Yan looked at him, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. Xia Yan was beautiful, especially when she cried, she wasn't the kind of yelling or disgusting person. Instead, she had a pitiful beauty.

She cried and said: "It's not like this anyway."

Lu Jingchi looked at her expressionlessly.

Xia Yan added: "I can promise you not to appear next to Jiang Lan, but can you please stop being so cold to me?"

"If I don't agree, are you going to threaten me with suicide?"

Xia Yan shook her head: "How could I threaten you? Didn't you ask me to prove it to you?"

Her words blocked Lu Jingchi.

She did not threaten him with suicide. The reason why she cut her wrists was because Lu Jingchi asked her to prove it.

If Lu Jingchi didn't save her, she would be cold now. What kind of threat is this?

"Okay, let's go back." Lu Jingchi obviously didn't want to continue chatting, so he added, "Be calm and don't cause trouble for me."

Xia Yan felt relieved after hearing his tone. Her face lit up and she nodded hurriedly.

She hugged him happily, and seeing that he had no intention of pushing her away, she raised her head and whispered, "I listen to you, and I promise not to cause you any trouble."

Xia Yan was very sensible. She just hugged him and let him go. Her mood instantly turned from gloomy to sunny. Although there were still tears on her face, she still couldn't control the raised corners of her mouth.

"Then I'll leave first. Don't stop running around."

Lu Jingchi didn't say anything. She turned around and left the hospital on her high heels.

After she left, Lu Jingchi put his hand into his trouser pocket, and when he took it out again, there was a black round button in his hand.

He looked at the thing in his hand and smiled inexplicably.
