Shi Xi stopped her hand that was about to take out her check. “It’s not for you. It’s for me!”

After all, she was the one who wanted to acquire Xian Wei. She couldn’t let Hua Xuanhe pay for it.

Just as they were in a stalemate, Hua Wenyin appeared.

The two of them stopped in unison.

“Aunt.” Hua Xuanhe went up to her. “What did the doctor say?”

Hua Wenyin had obviously not slept the entire night. She shook her head. “The doctor said that in this case, we can only wait for a period of recovery before trying to use a prosthetic.”

A broken leg was hard to reattach.

“Xi Xi is here.” Hua Wenyin forced a smile when she saw Shi Xi.

“Mm, I’m here to see Hua Ruoling. Brother said that she just fell asleep, so I won’t go in and disturb her,” Shi Xi said.

“Her emotions are not very stable. Let her recover for a period of time.” Hua Wenyin looked at Shi Xi and hesitated.

“Then I’ll go back first.” Shi Xi was afraid that Hua Wenyin would also talk about breaking up, so she said first, “Goodbye.”

Shi Xi fled.

“Did you tell Xi Xi to be careful?” Hua Wenyin asked worriedly after Shi Xi left.

“Xi Xi is already an adult. She can tell right from wrong.” Hua Xuanhe touched the check that was stuffed into his pocket. He thought to himself: This girl doesn’t need to worry.

She had a lot of ideas.

After leaving the hospital, Shi Xi went to see Ao Fengyang and gave him a check.

“If you need money, just look for me. If it’s anything else, you can ask Hua Xuanhe for help,” Shi Xi instructed.

“I want to ask President Xie for help. He has shares in Xian Wei.” Ao Fengyang had obviously done his homework.

Shi Xi thought, Why does Xie Yunzhou do everything?

Even Xian Wei had his shares?

Ask Xie Yunzhou for help?

Shi Xi was a little hesitant. “Then go ask Xie Yunzhou.”

Ao Fengyang: “…He doesn’t look easy to get along with.”

Shi Xi agreed.

Even though Xie Yunzhou had cooked for her yesterday, Shi Xi still felt that Xie Yunzhou was not easy to get along with.

“Forget it. I’ll look for President Hua.” Ao Fengyang also felt that Hua Xuanhe was more approachable.

Shi Xi heaved a sigh of relief. “Then I’ll be leaving first. If there’s anything you need me for, contact me again.”

After returning.

Xie Yunzhou had already prepared dinner and was waiting for her.

Seeing that there were still bitter gourds on the table, Shi Xi’s face fell. “Why are there bitter gourds?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted to eat?” Xie Yunzhou raised his eyebrows. “I cut the bitter gourd today and added a spoonful of sugar. It shouldn’t be that bitter anymore.”

“Really?” Shi Xi wanted to try it with her chopsticks.

“Go wash your hands first,” Xie Yunzhou stopped her.

“I’ll have a taste first.”

Xie Yunzhou picked up a piece of bitter gourd and fed it to Shi Xi.

Shi Xi bit down without any doubt.

Her little face wrinkled.

It was not as bitter as yesterday.

But it was still bitter.

“I’m going to wash my hands.” Shi Xi swallowed the bitter gourd, washed her hands with her face down, and returned to the dining table.

“Or I can make it into bitter gourd juice for you and you can drink it in one gulp?” Xie Yunzhou suggested.

Just thinking about it made Shi Xi’s entire body resist.

She felt as if the bitterness had flowed into her blood.

Forget it, just stir-fry it. Shi Xi was very conflicted.

“Are we still eating tomorrow?” Xie Yunzhou asked with a smile.

He quite liked to see Shi Xi like this.

Shi Xi nodded.

Shi Xi felt even more pained when she thought of her promise to Ning Yu to eat it for three days.

“It’s okay. I’ll eat with you.” Xie Yunzhou was already thinking about how to cook tomorrow.

Shi Xi saw that Xie Yunzhou was eating without any pressure. She did not feel like he was sharing weal and woe.
