Chapter 2539: Outsiders: Xiaochen Loses Memory 29
At this moment, the ward door was pushed open.
Ye Lu stood at the door with a thermos lunch box and a smile on his face, but he didn't expect there were so many people in the ward and was stunned for a moment.
But he quickly adjusted his expression, looked at Zhou Chengjun lying on the hospital bed, and said in a sweet voice, "Mr. Zhou, I made some nourishing soup. I heard that you were injured, so I brought it to you specially..."
As he said this, he was about to walk in.
Zhou Chengjun's brows immediately furrowed, and he said in an unhappy tone, "Why are you still here? Didn't I ask you to go through the resignation procedures?"
Zhao Xitang obviously didn't know about this and looked at Zhou Chengjun in confusion. "Resigned? I remember he was an employee under Xiao Liang. What's going on?"
Ye Lu bit his lower lip and deliberately made his previous confession ambiguous, emphasizing only his admiration and concern for Mr. Zhou.
He also said that he didn't want anything and just wanted to stay and work for President Zhou, and even pleaded with Zhao Xitang.
"Mr. Zhao, please don't chase me away..."
Zhao Xitang: “?”
He was really confused.
Jinchen had sat down on the small sofa next to him at some point, looking quite relaxed and at ease, and even insisted on putting his arm around Liang Yanze's waist.
Hearing this, he raised his gray eyes and looked at Ye Lu.
"You're so perverted."
Ye Lu: “?”
He stared blankly at this strange man who was so handsome but spoke so hurtfully.
Jinchen continued slowly, "You talk as if you've already slept together."
Humans are a cunning species that are good at playing language traps, especially this person.
He actually tried to use vague words to gain sympathy and confuse the public.
Liang Yanze had no intention of stopping Jinchen from speaking, and curled the corners of his lips.
Seeing Jinchen being so rude to Ye Lu, he felt quite... happy.
Liang Yanze, "I'm sorry, he's always outspoken. I'll tell him about it when I get back."
But everyone knows it.
Tell me when I get back = Don’t tell me when I get back = I’m just being polite.
Zhou Chengjun didn't care what truth his benefactor told.
He was just afraid that Zhao Xitang would misunderstand him, so he hurriedly explained, "Xiaotang, don't listen to his nonsense. It's not true at all. I have nothing to do with him!"
Ye Lu had no idea why this strange man was targeting him like this. His face turned pale and blue, his eyes were filled with tears, and he looked extremely aggrieved.
Jinchen watched him cry, but his gray pupils slowly moved up and fell on Ye Lu's head.
He tilted his head slightly, feeling a little strange.
"Zero is rolling," he asked in his mind, "Where's his protagonist's aura? Why does it seem...fading? Almost invisible."
Ling Gungun quickly checked it out.
[The plot has shifted, host. Let me see... oh~]
[In the original plot, after the birthday party, the protagonist, the shou, would "accidentally" reveal his relationship with the protagonist, the gong, to the hospitalized Zhao Xitang, exacerbating the conflict.]
Ling Gun Gun cheered up, "Host, wait a little longer. His plan failed and he made a fool of himself in public. A large amount of them will soon be dispersed."
Zhou Chengjun hurriedly explained to Zhao Xitang, fearing that Ye Lu's unlucky words just now would make Zhao Xitang emotional and cause discomfort.
He was no longer sleepy at this moment. He forced himself to sit up and carefully pulled Zhao Xitang to his side.
Then, he turned to Ye Lu, who was still standing there crying, and his expression turned completely cold. "I think I made it very clear last night. There is no room for negotiation on resignation."
"Now, please leave immediately."
Ye Lu really cried this time, not the sobbing that was meant to gain sympathy. Tears fell down his face and his voice was filled with sobs.
"It doesn't matter if you chase me away. I will stay with you..." He wiped his tears stubbornly. "Anyway, I can wait. I will wait until... the day you are willing to accept me."
The implication of these words was almost equivalent to cursing Zhao Xitang for poor health, saying that sooner or later...
Jinchen and Liang Yanze were listening nearby, their expressions indescribable.
Jinchen looked left and right, his eyes swept across the shelf in the corner of the ward, reached under the shelf and took out a scratcher for patients to use, and handed it to Zhao Xitang.
"Here you go, hit him."
Liang Yanze was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly pulled this monster who was eager to cause chaos in the world back to his side and said, "Don't add fuel to the fire."
Zhao Xitang held down Zhou Chengjun who was about to stand up angrily.
Zhao Xitang walked up to Ye Lu, and the gentle temperament that had been accumulated due to long-term rest suddenly changed, becoming sharp and pointed. He looked down at the young man who was crying bitterly, and leaned over to whisper in his ear.
The voice was very soft, but the content was chilling.
"If you really want to wait for my death," Zhao Xitang said calmly, "I won't let you live to see that day."
Ye Lu was so frightened that he trembled all over and even forgot to cry.
He looked at Zhao Xitang in horror, not caring about the soup or affection. Feeling scared and ashamed, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Jinchen's pupils moved, following Ye Lu's hastily fleeing back, and saw it clearly.
The moment he rushed out of the ward door, the last few remaining traces of energy in the protagonist's halo were finally stripped away and dissipated.
It seems that this plot point that has been entangled for a long time has finally been completely broken.
Jinchen licked his red lips and felt hungry.
He stood up and said to Liang Yanze, "I want to go eat."
Zhou Chengjun, who was curiously leaning over to ask what Zhao Xitang had just whispered, turned his head in confusion when he heard the words, "You want to go...what?"
Liang Yanze's eyelids jumped, and he immediately reached out and grabbed Jinchen's wrist with some strength to prevent him from saying anything shocking.
He maintained composure and explained to Zhou Chengjun and Zhao Xitang, "We left in a hurry this morning, and he didn't have breakfast. He might be a little hungry and have low blood sugar."
"I'll take him to eat something first."
When Zhou Chengjun heard this, he quickly waved his good hand and said, "Go quickly, don't starve!"
After he finished speaking, he moved back to Zhao Xitang, took his hand, whispered his loyalty, and swore that he would never have any inappropriate thoughts about anyone other than him.
-
Outside the ward, in the corridor.
Jinchen looked towards the elevator. Ye Lu was standing there dejectedly, waiting with his back to the elevator. The tone of his voice when he was complaining to his friends on the phone was full of resentment and grievance.
Liang Yanze pulled Jinchen's hand, frowning slightly, and said gently, "You want to eat...Okay, but can you please not be so close to him?"
He really didn't want to see Jinchen and Ye Lu have any kind of close contact.
Jinchen glanced sideways, carefully observing Liang Yanze's expression, "Okay."
He readily agreed, pursing his lips, "If my wife gets jealous, I can stay far away."
Liang Yanze's ears turned red, but he didn't say anything in rebuttal.
Then, he caught a glimpse of a few wisps of extremely thin and light black mist, which spread out from Jinchen's body like living silk threads, coiled above Ye Lu's head, and fluctuated slightly, as if absorbing something invisible.
Liang Yanze looked a little dazed.
Is this how Jinchen eats? Is he absorbing...luck? Or something else?
He subconsciously touched the healed, faint scars on the inside of his arm, and his eyes narrowed behind his lenses.
The eating process is very short, only about half a minute.
Those strands of black mist retreated quietly and merged back into Jinchen's body as if they were full.
Almost at the same time, Ye Lu, who was talking angrily on the phone at the elevator entrance, suddenly stumbled.
He fell to the ground in a mess, holding his ankle and grimacing in pain, tears welling up in his eyes again.
The sprain that was easily healed before due to the halo of the protagonist was now delayed and suffered retribution.
Jinchen nodded with satisfaction.
He could feel that the remaining protagonist halo energy in Ye Lu had disappeared.
From then on, this human being could no longer cause any trouble.
It is even more impossible to make his wife miserable again.
