C744 A Stranger
The three of them sat down and finished dinner. After dinner, Shen Yijia indicated that he had an appointment with a friend and wanted to make a trip to the bar. He asked Qiao An to stay in the hospital for a while longer.
"I came back around 10: 30."
"Sure." Qiao An did not have any plans. "Drink less wine. The security here is not good."
"Don't worry." Shen Yijia said to Ling Yi, picked up his coat, and went out the door.
The night had fallen, and the city outside the window was like a huge black hole, making people feel heavy.
Qiao An looked at it a few more times and felt that it was a bit suffocating.
During these few days of interaction, Ling Yi naturally noticed that Qiao An's emotions were not quite right, but he did not know what exactly happened.
After pondering for a moment, he raised his hand to signal, "Qiao An, come and sit. Let's chat."
"Okay." Qiao An came over with the coffee in her hands and sat down beside the bed.
Ling Yi looked at her deeply. "Are you in a bad mood recently? I haven't seen you smile for a few days."
"I don't think so." Qiao An shrugged. "I smile a lot."
Ling Yi did not dwell on this question. He just asked, "Did something happen? Tell me, maybe I can solve it."
Qiao An was silent for a moment. "I will digest the matter of feelings. Other people can't help."
Her words made Ling Yi's heart freeze. It seemed that it had something to do with Huo Chengzhou. Maybe because she stayed here to take care of him, there was some conflict between them.
Ling Yi could not tell how he felt.
...
In the bar.
It was only 9: 30 p.m. when Shen Yijia finished talking. They came down from the private room upstairs and planned to leave.
He looked around inadvertently and found an unexpected person.
Huo Chengyun sat at the bar counter. She wore a cool skirt, revealing her slender arms.
At this moment, there were two people from Country M on both sides of her. They were trying to persuade her to drink. One of them even put his hand on Huo Chengyun's waist.
Shen Yijia frowned.
Reason told him that it had nothing to do with him, but his feelings made him unconsciously look in her direction.
He sent his partner to the door, then quickly turned back.
Only then did he realize that Huo Chengyun was already being carried away by two men and was about to leave. Looking at her staggering steps, it could be seen that she was deeply drunk.
Shen Yijia quickly walked over and blocked the two men. "Sorry, this lady is my friend. I'll send her back."
Huo Chengyun heard the noise and looked up. She narrowed her eyes and looked at him for a while and smiled. "We are not friends. We are... the most familiar stranger. A stranger!"
One of the men raised his hand and pushed Shen Yijia. "Mind your own business!"
The two of them continued to support Huo Chengyun and were about to leave. Shen Yijia naturally would not let them go. He raised his hand and was about to pull Huo Chengyun.
The three men entangled for a while and threw Huo Chengyun to the side.
At this moment, it was two against one situation. The surrounding people who were watching the show began to whistle and jeer.
Huo Chengyun, who had fallen to the side of the chair, retched a few times. She took the ice water from the table and drank a few mouthfuls. She finally woke up a little.
She saw Shen Yijia who was about to be surrounded. From her direction, she could see the stern expression on the handsome face of the man, which made her heart suddenly move.
She raised her arm. "Don't... This is my friend..."
Of course, no one would care about her emotions. The two men from Country M snorted and walked towards Shen Yijia with smiles on their faces.
It seemed like a fierce battle was unavoidable.
