He Chengze looked at Jian Xi's profile looking out of the window, his heart moved, and he gently pulled the corner of his mouth.

Jian Xi was distracted, when he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his hand beside the bed, subconsciously looked back.

Her gaze fell on the back of the hand wrapped by He Chengze's palm, she was speechless, but did not move her hand away.

"Childish or not?" Jian Xi couldn't help laughing as he spoke.

"Not naive." He Chengze said seriously, tightening his hands slightly.

The eyes of the two met inadvertently, and when they met He Chengze's deep black eyes, Jian Xi's heart skipped a beat.

"You just let the police take He Zhu away? Don't you want to know about the old man in He Zhu?" Jian Xi realized later.

Sunlight penetrated through the window and shone on He Chengze's body, covering his whole body with a layer of golden light.

Jian Xi carefully observes He Chengze like this, trying to see some emotions from his expression.

The latter had a gentle look on his face from beginning to end, and was not moved by Jian Xi's words.

After a while, He Chengze said in a low voice: "It's impossible that only he knows about the matter."

He Zhu had to go in, and it would not be too late for him to investigate the cause of the old man's death after his affairs were dealt with.

He had to annihilate all the possibility of hurting Jian Xi first.

He Zhu is not worthy of their sympathy, keeping him is always a disaster.

The man's voice was calm and magnetic, which made Jianxi feel inexplicably at ease.

"Then it's easy to miss a good opportunity. Didn't you want to hand He Zhu over to the police at first? Are you accepting my suggestion now?"

"Well, accepted."

Jian Xi opened her mouth, and before she could ask why, there was a strange sound in the ward, but that sound came from her stomach.

Jian Xi noticed He Chengze's gaze, and touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment.

Can she pretend that nothing happened and continue talking?
"Hungry?" He Chengze smiled sullenly.

Jian Xi nodded slightly, pretending to be calm and looking away, trying to cover up the pink on her cheeks.

Then she vaguely heard the slight movement of the chair beside the hospital bed, subconsciously looked, and saw He Chengze's leaving back.

He Chengze did not forget to look back and tell, "Wait for me to come back."

Jian Xi looked at the gradually receding figure, the corners of his mouth gradually raised, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

This kind of He Chengze always makes people feel cute.

There were deep and shallow footsteps at the door, Jian Xi was slightly taken aback, silently looking at the doctor who opened the door.

She ignored the little disappointment in her heart and greeted the doctor politely.

"Miss Jian, has Mr. He gone out?" the doctor asked casually.

"right……"

Jian Xi nodded, bowed her head for a while, and suddenly looked towards the door.

The doctor was a little dazed looking at her unexpected action, and followed her gaze to the door in puzzlement.

Jian Xi heard the familiar footsteps gradually approaching, but within a few breaths, He Chengze's figure appeared at the door of the ward.

The man was still holding a thermos and fruit in his hand, and his originally indifferent face became soft when it came into Jian Xi's sight.

"How did you come back so quickly?"

"I'm afraid that some greedy cat will be waiting impatiently." He Chengze pampered and pinched Jian Xi's cheek.

The doctor at the side looked slightly condensed, cleared his throat, and broke the charm between the two.

"Ms. Jane, remember to ring the bell whenever you feel unwell." The doctor explained solemnly, and twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly when he turned to leave.

This is a hospital, how could He Chengze and Jian Xi pretend to be a place to fall in love? It's hard to see!

After He Wan knew about He Zhu's arrest, it was already afternoon.

She looked at the text message in her hand, and her fingers holding the phone turned white.

He called Jian Xi without any hesitation, and after knowing that Jian Xi was fine, he seemed relieved and slowly leaned on the sofa.

"As long as you're fine..." He Wan pinched her tired brows.

Jian Xi, who was lying on the hospital bed, felt a little awkward listening to the slightly choked voice on the other end of the phone.

As far as He Wan is concerned, she seems to have nothing to do with it.

"He Zhu has been arrested." Jian Xi said softly.

"Then can I go to your place now?"

Now that He Zhu has been arrested, there should be no one to monitor He Wan now.

This kind of thing can't be explained clearly on the phone, so it's better to talk face to face.

Jian Xi thought for a moment, then agreed, and informed the hospital where she was.

"How do you think He Wan feels about He Zhu being arrested?" Jian Xi asked He Chengze bored.

Her eyes flickered, as if she really didn't understand.

He Chengze raised his eyelids, and twitched the corners of his mouth fondly, "You really don't know?"

Jian Xi glared at He Chengze reproachfully, did not answer, and quietly waited for He Wan's arrival.

When He Wan arrived at the ward, He Chengze was peeling apples for Jian Xi.

Seeing the man's tall figure, He Wan paused uncomfortably.

She knocked on the door politely, and entered the ward with Jian Xi's answer.

Looking at He Wan's flushed eyes, Jian Xi comforted her, "Mrs. He, sit down and rest first."

The latter shook his head, hesitated for a while, and still asked the question in his heart.

"He Zhu was arrested, does it prove that he did it? Can He Shi come out?" He Wan's tone was unavoidably excited.

He Chengze frowned calmly, cut off a piece of apple in his hand and carefully handed it to Jianxi's mouth.

His actions happened to block Jian Xi's mouth, causing Jian Xi to swallow the words that were about to blurt out.

This action made He Wan react, and quietly looked at He Chengze's expression.

She didn't speak again, even though she was anxious, she just silently waited for Jian Xi to finish eating the apple.

Jian Xi sensed what He Chengze meant, and bent his eyebrows with a dumbfounded smile.

She didn't think He Wan was noisy, on the contrary, the degree to which He Wan cared about He Shi just made Jian Xi a little admired.

"Mrs. He, don't worry, we are waiting for the result, why don't you sit down first?" Jian Xi comforted her.

He Wan glanced at Jian Xi anxiously, and looked at He Chengze from the corner of her eye.

How could she not be in a hurry?Although He Zhu had already been arrested, he might have left behind. If she came to her again, she was not sure that she would be able to hide a second time.

Only when He Shi came out would she feel at ease.

Maybe it was because He Chengze was feeding too fast, causing Jianxi to choke a little, and the movement of her uncomfortable cough startled He Wan.

The man hurriedly stepped forward to pat Jian Xi on the back, accidentally noticed the mischievous smile in the corner of Jian Xi's eyes, and helplessly let go of the frown between his eyebrows.

He continued to peel the fruit, but did not feed Jian Xi again.

"Eat more slowly next time."

"It's not that you feed fast."

Jian Xi subconsciously talked back and twitched the corners of her lips.

The interaction between the two was caught by He Wan's eyes, and the corners of her mouth were twitched enviously.

She couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Chengze, can you ask about He Shi's situation for me? I'm always flustered because I don't see him these days."

He Wan firmly believed that He Shi had nothing to do with the old man's death. In her eyes, she and He Chengze were naturally not enemies.

He Chengze didn't answer, he took Jian Xi's hand and played with it, not even throwing it to He Wan from the corner of his eye.

I don't know how long it took before He Wan moved her numb legs, and walked in front of the drowsy Jian Xi impatiently.

She said under He Chengze's cold gaze: "Jianxi..."

The woman woke up from the noise, watching He Wan's small movements of constantly rubbing her legs, half-knocking her eyelids.

She had already asked He Wan to rest first, why couldn't He Wan be flexible?It's not her fault that her legs are numb now.

Jian Xi sat up propped up, rubbed her eyes, and yawned delicately.

Feeling the cold air coming from He Chengze's body, Jian Xi pursed his lips dumbfounded.

"It should be almost time now, why don't you go and ask the police how it's going?"

After all, it hasn't been long since He Zhu was arrested, so the police must be given some time to interrogate.

Looking at this point of time, the police should have gained something.

Only then did He Chengze nod his head, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called someone.

The policeman had just come out of the interrogation room when he received the call. He had just finished sweating, but now he was shocked when he saw the familiar number.

"Mr. He, we just finished the interrogation, and He Zhu's mouth is stiff."

"Where's He Shi?"

The policeman stopped wiping his sweat, not sure what He Chengze meant, and replied hesitantly: "He Shi...can't let him go now, he still hasn't got rid of the suspicion."

As long as He Zhu doesn't confess, He Shi won't let him go for the time being.

The police still wanted to explain, but the words came to their lips, but the busy tone of the phone hanging up came from their ears.

He Chengze got the answer he wanted, and hung up the phone in silence.

He Wan held her breath subconsciously since He Chengze said the word "He Shi", until he hung up the phone, her cheeks were already blushing.

"How is it? Can He Shi let it go?"

"Or not?" Jian Xi leaned in front of He Chengze.

From He Chengze's expression, Jianxi could catch a little bit of displeasure, which actually represented the outcome of the matter.

He Wan felt cold when she heard Jian Xi's words, and stared closely at He Chengze.

No, He Zhu has already been arrested, and everyone behind the scenes has been caught, so why not let He Shi go?
Besides, He Shi has nothing to do with this matter at all...

"I can't let it go for now." He Chengze patted Jian Xi's head that came closer.

There was a trace of admiration for Jian Xi in the corner of his eyes, indicating that he agreed with Jian Xi's guess.

He Chengze's words were like a bolt from the blue to He Wan. She stood there in a daze, with a sore nose and tears streaming down without warning.

Uncontrollably choked up, she covered her mouth with her hand, trembling a little.

No one knew the hope that kept surging in her heart when she learned that He Zhu had been arrested.

And this hope was now severely thrown to the ground.

Jian Xi looked helplessly at He Wan who was crying again, and pursed her lips to look at He Chengze.

The last time He Wan cried like this was not long ago.

She found that He Wan's tears were extraordinarily profuse, as if she couldn't stop crying.

Jian Xi doesn't know how to comfort others, and when she realizes that she is asking He Chengze for help, she is speechless for a while, er... He Chengze seems to be inferior to her.

He Chengze received Jian Xi's helpless emotions, and kept silent and let He Wan vent his emotions.
