CHAPTER 501: CHAPTER 500: THE TORMENTED AN JIAYOU

An overwhelming sense of joy swept through Shen Mengqi’s heart as she saw the shock and loss on the other person’s face, along with a fleeting sense of pain in her heart.

She didn’t believe that An Nan’s marriage would make the man she’d waited for all these years look at her more.

The next moment, the man’s reaction finally made her understand one thing: Ouyang Lei will always be Ouyang Lei, able to quickly collect his thoughts.

Afterwards, she saw the man behind the desk approach her: "Let’s go, let’s visit the hospital." Watching the distant back, Shen Mengqi really wanted to grab him and ask, "Why can’t I see it in your eyes?" But in the end, she didn’t do it.

Yet she never hated An Nan, even if her heart was unwilling. She was still very clear that this was a matter between her and Ouyang Lei, and had nothing to do with An Nan.

In the hospital room, Shen Mengqi was lost in her own thoughts, not even hearing An Nan speak to her.

"Meng Qi, An Nan is speaking to you, what are you thinking?"

Only then did Shen Mengqi snap out of her reverie, a trace of unease flashed across her face, and she smiled, saying: "It’s nothing, An Nan, are you feeling better now?"

An Nan smiled and nodded: "I’m fine now."

Afterwards, the hospital room fell into a very awkward atmosphere, making An Nan on the hospital bed very uncomfortable. Her eyes wandered back and forth between the two people in front of the bed, always feeling something strange between them.

This awkward atmosphere didn’t last long before Ouyang Lei broke it with a voice: "When did you get married?"

As he asked this question, Rocky had quietly left the hospital room.

"Uh, not long ago."

"Hmm, is there anywhere you still feel unwell?"

"No."

"Then have a good rest, let’s set those things aside for now, taking care of your health is most important. There are matters at the Police Station, Meng Qi will stay with you, I’m leaving now." When Ouyang Lei finished speaking, he didn’t give the two women in the hospital room any chance to speak, he directly turned and left.

Outside the hospital room, Ouyang Lei encountered Rocky, and the two men tacitly came to the garden downstairs, facing each other.

Rocky still looked at the other with a faint smile: "You’re late."

No avoidance, no hiding, Ouyang Lei nodded without hesitation: "Yeah, I know, maybe I was late from the start. After all these years, I’ve never entered her heart, so from the beginning, I was late. But it doesn’t mean I’ll acknowledge that man." Ouyang Lei rarely spoke so many words at once.

The person in front of him still carried a calm smile: "Then what are you planning to do?"

"Let that bastard worry a bit first."

"Alright." This was pretty much what Rocky was thinking too, the two men hit it off, but this would make someone suffer.

Lin Mubai’s temper had been getting worse these days, An Jiayou stayed with him every day, always cautious, simply because, since the news of their marriage was announced online, Lin Mubai hadn’t received a phone call from someone, not even a message. The airline had also granted him a lengthy leave, and he couldn’t find the person, how could he not be furious?

Not only anger, but there’s also an increasing trend. Lin Mubai still took An Jiayou to the company every day, but didn’t explain the identity of the little guy, causing those unaware to guess wildly, until rumors spread that Lin Mubai had an illegitimate child.
