Chapter 48 Encountered again
After finishing speaking, she turned around and ran into the hospital building without looking back.

After entering the hospital, Ye Xingchen first went to the bathroom on the first floor, and she was even more annoyed when she saw her bright red lips in the mirror.

Turning on the faucet, she picked up a handful of cold water and rinsed her lips vigorously. The cold water spray quenched the burning heat on her lips, but the smell he left behind couldn't be lingered.

After calming down a bit, Ye Xingchen took a deep breath, then pulled himself together, took the elevator upstairs, and prepared to meet the storm that belonged to her.

However, things are always unexpected.

"Xingchen, I have good news for you. Ms. Jin's family has agreed to the pathological autopsy." Deputy Director Li couldn't wait to tell her the latest news.

Ye Xingchen was taken aback for a moment, but couldn't be happier.

That night, when she was brushing her hair after taking a shower, the mobile phone on the table rang loudly. When she picked it up, it was Lou Xi's number that was flashing on it.

She didn't want to accept it at first, but when she thought about how much she owed him, she hesitated and accepted it.

The voice was awkward and timid, "Hello?"

"It's me." The deep male voice came clearly through the microphone, and he announced his name, "Lou Xi!"

Ye Xingchen's hand holding the fuselage tightened slightly, she knew it was him, since she confused his number with Zuo Lingfeng's number that time, she had saved his number and subconsciously remembered it.

"En." She responded softly, feeling extremely uneasy. This was actually the first time they had spoken on the phone since they met.

After a slight pause, she asked cautiously, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you, what did you put in when you cooked porridge for Sisi before, I cooked it for her just now, it doesn't taste right, she doesn't like it."

"Cook porridge?" Ye Xingchen was stunned for a moment. She thought he would talk about the medical dispute, but she was surprised, but she quickly changed her mind. Sisi is so young, she must keep up with her nutrition, no What can I do if I love to eat?

"I didn't put anything, just put a little vegetables and carrots in, and let it cook slowly over low heat."

"But she picked out all the carrots!" His tone was somewhat helpless.

what?
Ye Xingchen couldn't help laughing when he thought of the always invincible Captain Lou being tortured helplessly by a two-year-old little girl, but during the few days she spent with Sisi, the little girl didn't seem to dislike carrots Ah, every time I eat it with rice and vegetables!

"What went wrong?" he asked suspiciously.

"This..." Ye Xingchen couldn't make it clear at once, after thinking about it, he asked cautiously, "Did you just throw the carrot in and cook it?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Ye Xingchen couldn't help sighing, "It's fine for an adult to eat, but Sisi is so small, her teeth haven't grown yet, and the carrot is very hard, so it needs to be stewed first and then put into the porridge to make it soft. She will love to eat."

"is it?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then I'll try next time."

After discussing the porridge issue, he felt a little awkward all of a sudden. After waiting for a long time, he didn't speak again, but he didn't hang up, and she couldn't hang up first.

1 minute passed, 2 minutes passed...

The phone switches from left hand to right hand and back to left hand...

Is he still there?
Just when she was suspicious, there was another voice on the other end of the phone, "I just took Sisi to wash my hands."

"Yeah." Ye Xingchen's heart softened again, and he couldn't help asking, "Is she okay?"

"Fortunately, it's just that I'm not in a good mood. She's not very happy that you left." His voice was calm.

Ye Xingchen bit his lip slightly, and began to miss and feel sorry for the little girl, and even wanted to ask him to give Sisi a call, but so what if he called, and after hanging up, there was still the sadness of parting. After leaving her, find a new "mother".

It seemed that there was nothing more to say. He still didn’t mention anything about medical disputes. She couldn’t help feeling anxious, but she finally mustered up her courage and said, “Ms. Jin’s family has agreed to the autopsy. I have resumed my job, thank you for your help, I hope it will not cause you any trouble."

On the other end of the phone, he paused for a moment, did not speak, and then hung up abruptly.

Ye Xingchen listened to the blind voice on the phone, and should have breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart became more and more uneasy. Did she say something wrong?
Before the phone screen went dark, she looked at the light and suddenly thought of a question, isn't the special team not allowed to use the phone casually?

Lou Xi stood leaning against the window, staring down at the barracks in the night, the most familiar olive green, more solemn in the dark night.

The night wind blew across his face, blowing his cheeks sharply.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and a call he had been waiting for for a long time finally came in. He raised his hand to pick it up, "Mr. Liu..."

"Yes, it's me. I had a meeting all day today, and it just ended. I heard from the people below that you came to me? Is there something wrong?"

"It's all right." He slightly hooked his lips, and said casually, with a smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes.

"Are you all right? No, it's rare for you to find me once, why are you all right before I reply? If you have something to say, just say it!"

"It's really all right."

"Then... shall we have dinner together some other day?"

"it is good."

The two exchanged a few words and ended the call.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Lou Xi said in a deep voice without turning her head.

Immediately, a communications soldier pushed the door open, first saluted the military, and then said, "Commander, have you finished your calls? It's time."

In the special brigade, even Lou Xi, who is the battalion commander, has to report to the communication team according to the rules when making calls.

"Well, it's over." Lou Xi turned off the phone, and then handed it over to the communications soldier for safekeeping.

Before he could contact Minister Liu, her problem was solved. Who was the one who helped her?

Something flashed in the sharp eyes with long eyelashes and light lids, and the answer was self-evident.

The next day, Ye Xingchen went to the hospital on time. Although it was the suspension stage, because Ms. Jin's family members had agreed to the pathological autopsy, the hospital would give feedback at any time, so she was allowed to be there at any time.

There is no need to see a doctor, no need to deal with any business, no need to do anything, leisure, but empty, the whole morning is spent in a daze.

During the lunch break, everyone went to have lunch one after another. Unlike before, no one invited her to join them.

She doesn't blame everyone's power, but at this moment, no one wants to have anything to do with her.

She took a deep breath, got up and went to the cafeteria alone, and after picking up the plate, she deliberately found a quiet corner, ignoring the strange eyes from all directions.

When I lowered my head to eat, I suddenly heard a certain table in the diagonal direction suddenly get excited.

"Ah, Zuo Lingfeng is in the headlines again. He will cooperate with Jin's to jointly develop the Jinli Diamond Mine!"

Kim?

Ye Xingchen's hand holding the chopsticks tightened slightly. Isn't that the company run by Ms. Jin's family?

Ye Xingchen faintly felt uneasy.

"Hey, Jin's performance in the past two years seems not to be as good as before. Why does Zuo Lingfeng cooperate with them?"
