Yan Xi was shocked to hear this.
She still had many questions she wanted to ask Fu Yan Ting, seeking an answer from him about why Fu Yan Ting had been in a car accident.
Yan Xi didn't know how she had hung up the phone.
She was still in a daze when she arrived at the hospital. Fu Yan Ting, such a proud person, how could he allow himself to have such an accident?
Yan Xi wished with all her heart that Fu Yan Ting could walk out of the operating room right now and tell her it was all a misunderstanding.
Mu Qing Xiang watched the light on the operating room shine, then glanced at Yan Xi standing beside her. She unleashed all her anger onto Yan Xi.
Mu Qing Xiang didn't care about anything else and raised her hand, slapping Yan Xi.
Yan Xi could have dodged it, but she didn't.
She knew very well that Mu Qing Xiang was furious and needed to vent. So, Yan Xi stood there, not moving at all.
After Mu Qing Xiang slapped her, she glanced coldly at Yan Xi and asked, "I just hit you, and you could have dodged it. Why didn't you?"
"If I had dodged it, your anger would have nowhere to go, and you would be even more upset."
Yan Xi's tone was calm, but what she said left Mu Qing Xiang speechless.
Mu Qing Xiang sized up Yan Xi and said with feigned composure, "Don't think that just because you did this, I will forgive you. If it weren't for you, my grandson wouldn't have to be hospitalized repeatedly. You're a jinx. Ever since Yan Ting got together with you, he's always had accidents. If anything happens to my grandson this time, you'll be buried with him."
Yan Xi ignored everything Mu Qing Xiang said. She knew very well Mu Qing Xiang's hostility towards her now. Anything Yan Xi said would be wrong. Mu Qing Xiang needed an outlet for her anger, not Yan Xi's explanations.
Yan Xi stood there, feeling confused. It did seem like, as Mu Qing Xiang said, Fu Yan Ting always had accidents when he was with Yan Xi.
Once or twice, Yan Xi might not have suspected anything, believing Fu Yan Ting had indeed met with an accident.
But with one accident after another, Yan Xi found it hard to accept.
Yan Xi couldn't help but wonder if all this was a real accident or if it was man-made.
If it was man-made, it definitely had something to do with the Yao family.
Yan Xi dared not return to the Yao family now, her hair standing on end. She dared not think further, dared not imagine what she would do if this was really the Yao family's doing, how she would face Fu Yan Ting.
While Yan Xi was lost in thought, Mu Jing Chen arrived at the hospital. He walked up to Yan Xi and saw the swollen half of her face, with finger marks on it.
Mu Jing Chen's face instantly darkened.
He asked softly, "Xi Xi, what happened to your face? Who hit you?"
Although he asked, Mu Jing Chen knew very well that besides Mu Qing Xiang, it wouldn't be anyone else.
Mu Qing Xiang glanced at Yan Xi. Her face was indeed swollen, but Mu Qing Xiang showed no remorse.
This was all Yan Xi's own doing. She owed Fu Yan Ting, and she had to pay the price.
Yan Xi looked at Mu Jing Chen and explained faintly, "I bumped into something accidentally."
Mu Jing Chen knew Yan Xi's face had been hit because there were finger marks on it.
But since Yan Xi didn't want to say, Mu Jing Chen didn't force her.
Mu Jing Chen calmly asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Yan Xi shook her head.
Mu Jing Chen was about to say something else, his mouth slightly open, but in the end, he didn't.
Because he saw that Yan Xi's heart was no longer with him.
Yan Xi's gaze was fixed on the operating room door; she was truly worried about Fu Yan Ting's safety.
Mu Jing Chen's hatred for Fu Yan Ting deepened, but he didn't show it on the surface.
Yan Xi seemed to realize belatedly why Mu Jing Chen was here. She looked at him and asked, "Jing Chen, why are you at the hospital? Are you not feeling well?"
"No, I'm just here for a follow-up check-up. But I didn't expect to see you here. You look so worried and distraught. Did something happen?" Mu Jing Chen glanced at Yan Xi and asked faintly.
Even now, Yan Xi didn't know how to explain all this to Mu Jing Chen.
Yan Xi gave no answer.
Mu Jing Chen glanced at Yan Xi and understood her meaning.
"Xi Xi, since we've met by chance in the hospital so many times, such a fate isn't for everyone. How about we have a unique wedding right here in the hospital? What do you think?"
Yan Xi felt extremely awkward at this moment. A unique wedding?
Yan Xi didn't know what Mu Jing Chen was thinking, but she didn't really want this wedding.
Yan Xi clenched her fists tightly and softly called out, "Jing Chen."
Mu Jing Chen knew Yan Xi's decision, but he still didn't break character.
As long as Yan Xi didn't make things too clear, Mu Jing Chen would pretend to be oblivious.
He didn't want their relationship to end, so he could only play the fool.
Willingly deceived by Yan Xi.
Mu Jing Chen asked with a faint smile, "Xi Xi, is something wrong?"
Yan Xi had already mustered the courage to talk about canceling the engagement, but facing such a gentle Mu Jing Chen, she couldn't utter a single word.
In Yan Xi's heart, Mu Jing Chen was such a good person, always gentle with her no matter what happened.
It seemed that in Mu Jing Chen's heart, Yan Xi was his everything.
Yan Xi took a deep breath, then looked at Mu Jing Chen again and said softly, "It's nothing. I just wanted to say, let's proceed with the wedding as planned. Let's not do it in the hospital. Let's not cause any more trouble for the doctors and nurses."
Mu Jing Chen looked at Yan Xi thoughtfully. Although Yan Xi said that, he knew in his heart that this wasn't her true intention.
In fact, Yan Xi was worried that if Fu Yan Ting hadn't been discharged yet, he might see her getting married here.
Ultimately, Yan Xi cared too much about Fu Yan Ting.
Cared so much that she could give up everything for him.
Mu Jing Chen reached out to gently tuck Yan Xi's hair behind her ear. But as soon as his hand touched her hair, Yan Xi instinctively flinched away.
Mu Jing Chen missed, his hands suspended in mid-air, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Mu Jing Chen could only smile helplessly, then slowly lowered his hands.
