Chapter 170: Let Bygone Be Bygone
Shen You and Zhao Nan stood at the same spot and looked at each other in dismay.
The sound of things being smashed could be heard from the ward.
Shen You glanced at Zhao Nan, and Zhao Nan immediately rushed through the door.
Shen You did not walk in. Instead, she chased after Xie Chen.
Shen You caught up with Xie Chen and found that she was sitting alone in the garden pavilion.
Shen You walked up and looked at Xie Chen who was staring at the stone bridge in a daze.
“Sister Chen, how are you feeling?” Shen You looked at Xie Chen and asked.
Xie Chen raised her head slightly and looked in the direction of the voice. “Xiao You, it’s you.”
Shen You sat next to Xie Chen and gently held her hand. “Sister Chen, are you okay?”
Xie Chen shook her head and said, “I’m fine. I’m just recalling the past.”
Shen You looked at Xie Chen’s disappointed look and sighed, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
Xie Chen quickly shook her head and said, “No, no, no! You didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just that some things in the past are already over.”
Shen You looked at Xie Chen and wanted to ask something, but gave up after thinking about it.
Shen You accompanied Xie Chen to sit in the pavilion for a while.
The two of them did not say a word.
Finally, Xie Chen stood up and faced Shen You. “Let’s go! We should go back now.”
Shen You saw Xie Chen’s calm smile again, but her heart ached.
She nodded, stood up, and followed Xie Chen back.
The two of them just walked. It was not a short distance, and they walked for about an hour.
Shen You stayed by Xie Chen’s side the whole time. She did not say anything but just accompanied her quietly.
It was not until they entered the coffee shop that Xie Chen turned to the bar counter and tidied herself up. Everything seemed to have resumed its original state.
Shen You looked at Xie Chen and sighed helplessly before returning to her room.
When Xie Xiao saw that the two of them had returned, she quickly caught up with Shen You. “Where did the two of you go so late at night?”
Shen You sighed and did not answer. She just entered the room by herself.
Seeing this, Xie Xiao chased after her. “Say something! Why do I feel that my sister is acting weird?”
Shen You thought for a moment and said, “It’s my fault. I made sister Chen think of something bad.”
Xie Xiao frowned and looked at Shen You. “Something bad?”
Xie Xiao thought about it and suddenly slapped her thigh. “Are you talking about my sister’s ex-boyfriend?”
“You knew about it, didn’t you?” Xie Xiao stared at Shen You.
Shen You looked at Xie Xiao and nodded slightly.
Xie Xiao gritted her teeth and said, “Tell me! Who is that b*stard?”
Shen You saw that Xie Xiao was rubbing her fists and preparing to settle the score with the “bastard”, she didn’t know where to start.
Seeing that Shen You didn’t move, Xie Xiao looked at Shen You in confusion. “What’s wrong?”
Shen You held Xie Xiao’s hand and said, “Sister Chen has never mentioned that man in the past few years, right?”
Xie Xiao sighed. “Yeah! Why didn’t she say anything?”
“Mom and Dad didn’t say anything either! It’s so worrying!” Xie Xiao mumbled.
Shen You looked at Xie Xiao’s annoyed expression and frowned. “Why didn’t she say anything?”
Xie Xiao looked at Shen You’s expression and patted Shen You’s arm. “Tell me about that man!”
“I think it’s better for Sister Chen to tell you herself,” Shen You said hesitantly.
“But…” Xie Xiao felt that Xie Chen wouldn’t say anything.
Shen You thought for a moment and said, “When Sister Chen comes back later, we’ll…”
Xie Chen packed her things from the coffee shop and returned to her room. It was already close to midnight.
She pushed open her room door, turned on the dim light, and walked in.
Just as she was about to close the door, Xie Xiao and Shen You appeared at the door.
Xie Chen was shocked and looked at the two of them. “Why are you still up so late?”
Xie Xiao and Shen You looked at each other. “Sister Chen, we want to talk to you.”
Xie Chen was a little surprised, but she stepped back. “Come in and talk.”
Xie Xiao and Shen You walked into Xie Chen’s room.
