My CEO Ex-husband Wants To Remarry Me - Chapter 956
Chapter 956: Why Are You Still Standing There When You’re Home (5)
The phone rang for a long time before it finally stopped. Su Ruowan put down her phone and remained sitting on the sofa. Her expression was dull and no one knew what she was thinking.
After a while, the phone screen lit up again. Su Ruowan picked it up and looked at it. This time, it was ” Shangguan Yan is calling.”
She still did not answer the call. She watched as the phone screen lit up and dimmed, then dimmed and lit up again…Finally, she took a deep breath and slid the phone down to her ear.
“Hello, Sister-in-law, you finally picked up the phone! Are you alright? Oh my god, you scared me! Just now, Big Brother called me and said that no one picked up your call. He scolded me and thought that something had happened to you!”Shangguan Yan’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
Su Ruowan blinked and tried to make her voice return to its usual calmness. She said,” I’m fine. Just now…” I didn’t hear anything. I’m sorry.”
“Uh, there’s no need to be sorry. It’s good that you’re fine. Sister-in-law, our dishes are almost ready.”Shangguan Yan instructed.
“Okay, I’ll go back now.”
After putting down the phone, Su Ruowan still felt her hands trembling. She slowly propped herself up and walked towards the door of the private room.
Zhang Luaya did not call her and let Su Ruowan leave.
.
After Shangguan Yan hung up the phone, he immediately called Jing Muchen.” Hello, Big Brother, Sister-in-law is fine. She said she didn’t hear her phone ring just now, don’t worry.””
“Is she with you now?” Jing Muchen asked.
“Uhh.” Shangguan Yan was speechless. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have called Big Brother! Sister-in-law, where’s Sister-in-law? Why isn’t she back yet?
Just as he was stammering and unable to speak, the door of the private room opened and Su Ruowan walked in from outside.
“Ah, Big Brother, Sister-in-law is back now!”Shangguan Yan seemed to be relieved and hurriedly shouted.
“Let her answer the phone.”
“Uhh.” Shangguan Yan had no choice but to stand up and walk over with his phone. He whispered,” Sister-in-law, it’s Big Brother’s call. You should quickly answer it. Otherwise, I won’t be able to bear the consequences.””
Su Ruowan glanced at Shangguan Yan and could only reach out to take the phone.” Hello?”
“Why didn’t you pick up the phone just now?” On the other end of the phone, Jing Muchen’s voice was still domineering and direct, revealing his unique concern.
“..”Su Ruowan opened her mouth. After a long time, she whispered,” I didn’t hear anything.””
“That’s good.” Jing Muchen seemed to heave a sigh of relief. His voice was low again.” How were the results of the checkup at the hospital? You promised to call me after the checkup. Why didn’t you call me?”
Su Ruowan’s heart was still in a mess. Zhang Luoya’s words just now were still lingering in her mind. When she thought about how Jing Muchen was the one who caused those things back then, she did not know how to face him.
After half a day, Su Ruowan finally opened her mouth. It was only a few short words,” I forgot.”
After saying this, the two of them did not speak again. The phone was very quiet. Su Ruowan could vaguely hear the faint breathing on the other end. The voice was very light, but it seemed to be able to tug at her heartstrings, bringing a trace of pain.
After a long while, Jing Muchen finally spoke slowly. His voice was low and mellow as he instructed,” Okay, then hurry up and eat. Don’t starve yourself.””
“Alright.”
Su Ruowan hung up the phone and handed the phone to Shangguan Yan.
Shangguan Yan took the phone and looked suspiciously at Su Ruowan. Then, he carefully said,” Sister-in-law, did Eldest Brother say something about you? Don’t worry, if he blames you, just push the blame on me. Just say that I didn’t go out to look for you, so…”
“There’s no such thing.” Su Ruowan interrupted him and glanced at the other two people at the table. She walked over with a relaxed expression and said,” Alright, let’s eat quickly. I’m so hungry.””
Helian Chen frowned slightly as he looked at her. With his understanding of Su Ruowan and hearing the short phone call just now, he felt that Su Ruowan’s current appearance was very abnormal! Something bad must have happened!
Wu Lili also realized it, but she didn’t say anything. She picked up the hot coconut juice and poured a cup for Su Ruowan, then thoughtfully placed it in front of her.
Su Ruowan smiled at her and lowered her head to eat slowly.
Of the five people at the dining table, except for Shangguan Yan, the other three were unusually silent.
After Shangguan Yan had enjoyed himself for a while, other than Little Liu who would occasionally agree with him, no one else had any reaction. Shangguan Yan pursed his lips. His enthusiasm had been completely shattered, so he could only eat quietly.
Finally, the depressing meal ended. After Su Ruowan and the rest bid Helian Chen a brief farewell, Little Liu drove the car towards Hua Fu Rui Garden.
.
On the way.
In the back seat of the car, Wu Lili asked in a low voice with a worried look,” Ruowan, did that woman look for you for something? You don’t look right!”
Su Ruowan was stunned. She shook her head and said,” Nothing much.””
Wu Lili sighed and said,” It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. But I want to tell you that you should never let your imagination run wild. If you have any questions, just ask Uncle Jing. I think he will give you the best answer.””
Su Ruowan’s heart was filled with fear. She looked at Wu Lili and slowly nodded.” I know, Sister Wu. Thank you.””
“What are you thanking me for?” Wu Lili smiled and looked at Su Ruowan helplessly.
.
They arrived at the villa area of Huafu Ruiyuan.
Su Ruowan said,” Xiao Liu, just park the car at the entrance.”
“I can’t, Sister-in-law. I promised Eldest Brother before that I would send you home safely.”Shangguan Yan looked back from the passenger seat and said disapprovingly.
Su Ruowan took out the key from her bag and shook it twice before saying,” I have the key to the main door. You can just open the door and go in yourself.” It’s 2 o’clock in the afternoon now. I’m afraid that if I go in, I’ll make too much noise and wake my mother or child up.”
Shangguan Yan blinked and could only say,” I see. Alright then.””
.
Therefore, after Su Ruowan got out of the car, Wu Lili and Shangguan Yan watched her take out the keys and open the villa door. Only then did they let Xiao Liu drive the car away.
Su Ruowan pushed open the door and walked in. After she turned around and closed the door again, she placed her hands on the door and lowered her head. Suddenly, she stood there quietly and did not move for a long time.
Suddenly, a familiar and deep male voice came from behind.” Why are you still standing there when you’re home?”
