TTPAC [QT] Chapter 17.4

World 1: A Cheating Little Drama Queen (47)

Advertisement

The security at Rosewood Garden is very good, and many celebrities live here.

The decoration of the new house was originally designed according to Shutong’s ideas, and all the furniture was selected by her in advance, but she didn’t expect that Ji Chu had already cleaned it up during this period of time. So, they could bring their parents over from the hotel tomorrow.

But Shutong didn’t have the energy to truly appreciate her new home. After washing up, she fell into bed and fell asleep.

Ji Chu closed the door of the room and left the entrance in a hurry.

Shutong got up in the middle of the night to drink water and searched all the rooms, but couldn’t find him.

She stared at her phone, unable to sleep. She tossed and turned several times, her stomach aching and nausea flaring up.

Later, she got up and went to the toilet to vomit twice before she called Ji Chu.

At that time, Ji Chu was in a quiet warehouse.

In front of him on the cement floor were several gangsters with their hands tied behind their backs. All of them had loose black hoods covering their heads.

They waited for a long time downstairs in the apartment building, with knives hidden on them. Even after being captured, they were still swearing, demonstrating their ferocity and unruliness.

“They’re roaming bullies, coming for you.” Qin Lang warned Ji Chu.

They had photos of Ji Chu in their phones, so they probably took money from someone to take revenge on Ji Chu.

Ji Chu was now frantically investigating the dirty deeds of the Qu family. It was unclear if this had fueled their vengeful spirit.

However, they had also anticipated this. Although the Qu family had fallen, there were still many shady forces behind the scenes.

“Send them to the police.”

Ji Chu didn’t want to get involved in these things.

He just wanted to see the Qu family destroyed.

As soon as he left the warehouse, Ji Chu received a call from Shutong.

“…Ji Chu, where have you been?”

The weak voice on the other end startled him. He subconsciously stepped on the accelerator.

“Tongtong, don’t hang up, I’ll be there soon.”

But the other end of the phone was unusually quiet, and Shutong didn’t say anything else.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Ji Chu’s mind.

He shouldn’t have deliberately forced her to sign the divorce agreement and let her face Gu Qingqing and Qu Yiming alone.

He shouldn’t have doubted her feelings for him.

He shouldn’t have left her alone at home…

He couldn’t imagine what her situation was like. His rapid heartbeat was clearly imprinted on his eardrums, and the fear of losing her was palpable all over again.

It was twenty minutes later that Ji Chu returned to Rosewood Garden.

The lights in the master bedroom bathroom were on, and Shutong was curled up there, already unconscious.

Shutong didn’t know how long she had slept. She kept hearing Ji Chu’s voice in her ears. She seemed to have vomited several times in a daze, her mouth bitter at the end.

She woke up to a stinging pain in the back of her hand.

The nurse was removing the needle. Seeing she’d woken up, she reassured her, “You’re fine. It’s just a stomach irritation. You need to eat a light diet.”

Shutong: “…” Ji Chu’s bad mouth.

But now, besides a slight dizziness and fatigue, she felt no other discomfort.

The sky outside was gradually brightening.

The nurse was very gentle, frequently glancing at Shutong, as if she was about to say something but hesitated.

God knows how excited she was right now. Last night, she was eating Shen Shutong’s melon, and the next moment, Shen Shutong appeared before her!

Moreover! Ji Chu personally sent her here!

At that time, Ji Chu was extremely nervous, and his serious and handsome face was full of worry.

This was the first time she was so close to the melon owner!

Last night, she left a message on Weibo to persuade Shen Shutong and her sisters to start a business. However, now she only wanted to tell Shen Shutong, “Look at Ji Chu! What a wonderful man he is!”

She’d seen a lot of human nature in the hospital. She could tell whether a man cared about you or not just from the moment you got sick!

Shutong noticed the strange look in the nurse’s eyes and was a little confused.

“Your husband has gone to see a doctor and should be back soon.” Said the nurse.

Shutong nodded weakly.

After the nurse left, Ji Chu came in from outside and put a few medical records aside.

His expression was cold, and the corners of his mouth were tense. A storm was brewing in his black eyes, with faint bloodshot visible in the depths of his eyes.

He didn’t say anything, just looked at her quietly, as if immersed in his own emotions.

It was seven in the morning. Ji Chu had probably been up all night, and he still had to take care of her.

When Shutong thought of this, her heart became heavy. She reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, and her eyes gradually turned red.

“Ji Chu, I’m sorry.”

Her voice was a little choked. It instantly touched the softest spot in Ji Chu’s heart.
