My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy-Chapter 360 - It’s Really Suffocating_1
Chapter 360: Chapter 360 It’s Really Suffocating_1
I never thought it would all come so quickly, leaving me no chance to regret.
On the phone, Song Zexi was shocked and angry.
“All my life, I knew he was no good. He committed so many unconscionable acts in the past, we never imagined there would come a day when he turned his malevolent claws on his own family.”
“I have failed Ayun! I truly feel I have let her down! Alas!”
Facing Song Zexi’s remorse, I didn’t know how to comfort him.
After a long silence, I finally asked,
“Did you find out anything about my father like you said you would?”
“I did! I have a file here, I’ve organized it, and then I’ll send it your way, make sure you check it carefully!”
“Alright, thank you!”
After hanging up the phone, I zoned out all by myself for a long while.
I’ve been somewhat out of it these days.
I often see Gu Yuanzhou…
I feel as if he hasn’t died, always lingering around me, like an inescapable shadow.
Wenya noticed something was off with me and forcefully took me to see Jia Musen.
“Dr. Jia, please take a good look at her. Could she be suffering from depression? She’s constantly spacey, distracted, not eating or drinking, and keeps having hallucinations. Look how thin she’s become.”
After checking my eyes, Jia Musen asked,
“Did you take the medicine I prescribed last time?”
I naturally wouldn’t admit that I’m suffering from depression,
“No, I’m not sick, my friend is just too worried about me. I just came to clarify, so she wouldn’t worry!”
“I have an assessment here, would you like to try it out?”
“Don’t test me with this, I have intelligence! I know what answers to fill out for depression.”
Jia Musen looked at me and laughed,
“This requires your cooperation, you know. If you don’t cooperate, the test is meaningless, ha ha!”
“I’m not ill!”
“Alright, alright, you’re not ill. But do you think your hallucinations won’t affect your life?”
“No!”
Jia Musen tried to guide me, wanting to unravel my inner conflicts. But I was resolute and resistant; no matter what he asked, I wouldn’t follow his lead in my answers.
In the end, he could only sigh deeply.
“How is it?”
Wenya asked.
Jia Musen shook his head helplessly,
“I’ll prescribe some medication for you. Remember to take it when you get home. It won’t work if you don’t take it.”
“Okay, sure!”
After leaving the clinic, I went to get the medicine.
Wenya made an excuse to go back to Jia Musen’s clinic and stayed for at least half an hour before coming out.
I was holding the medicine at the hospital entrance, looking at her,
“There’s really no need for you to think I’m sick.”
Wenya sighed and patted my shoulder,
“Ayun, just remember one thing: you haven’t done anything wrong. Gu Yuanzhou is a scumbag; he cheated first, his death was well-deserved.”
“Heh!”
I couldn’t bring myself to say such words anymore.
The recent series of twists had shaken my confidence; I didn’t dare to say it anymore.
Fortunately, Ding Yinuo had returned.
His return felt particularly sudden to me.
That morning, I was still in a meeting at the company when Ding Xiao suddenly called me.
“Xiaosong, Anuo is back. After your meeting, come to the house…”
“Okay!”
Receiving this call, I felt something was off.
Logically, I should’ve been the first person to know about his return.
He should’ve at least told me first, so I could have picked him up at the airport.
But he didn’t inform me about the exact flight details.
But I went straight back to the Ding Family’s place.
“Why not go back to Xishan Residence? That’s where we’ve lived since we got married, right?”
Despite having that thought, I was generally happy.
After all, I had held on for so long, and he had finally gotten better.
I quickly wrapped up the meeting,
tidied up a bit, grabbed my bag, and left the company directly.
On the way, I was still struggling with whether or not to tell Wenya.
But after much consideration, I still didn’t tell her.
After all, it was Ding Yinuo’s first day back. He definitely wouldn’t want to see too many outsiders…
I made a special trip to a flower shop and bought a bouquet of fresh flowers.
Thinking about how long we’d been apart, I was sure we’d have endless things to talk about when we met.
I fantasized about how he would ask me about the details of those sweet, warm moments we shared while he was in a vegetative state during his hospitalization, when I took care of him.
I had already thought about how I would answer.
Finally, I pressed the doorbell of the Ding Family’s house, feeling an excitement like never before.
The one who came to open the door was Ding Yinuo himself.
He was dressed in a light grey vest with a white shirt underneath, still as gentle and refined as jade, exuding elegance.
It seemed the illness of the past few months hadn’t affected him much.
But strangely, the man in front of me felt like Ding Yinuo, yet at the same time, he didn’t seem to be.
I was shocked by the origin of this bizarre feeling.
Only after a long moment did I realize that there was no trace of emotion in his eyes.
Yes, when he looked at me, there was no joy in his eyes.
There was even a touch of reluctance…
“Yinuo, you’re finally back!”
I wanted to give him a hug, but he stepped back quietly, avoiding me.
The smile on my face became slightly awkward.
To make sure I wasn’t hallucinating, I tried once more, offering him the flowers in my hand.
“Yinuo, welcome home after your recovery. These flowers are for you.”
As I handed him the flowers, I also took the opportunity to take his hand.
However, what took me by surprise was that he instinctively shook off my hand.
Causing the bouquet to fall to the ground…
The atmosphere became awkward for a moment.
What on earth is going on?
What’s wrong with him?
At this time, Jiang Jiaying quickly walked over from the living room. She bent over to pick up the bouquet from the ground and explained to me,
“The doctor said he’s allergic to pollen!”
Jiang Jiaying, holding the bouquet of fresh flowers, found an excuse and then discreetly threw them into the rubbish bin.
That was a gesture of my affection, and now she had just trampled over it.
It was bewildering and very unpleasant.
I pointed at her and said,
“Jiang Jiaying, what do you mean by this? Those were the flowers I bought. You should have asked for my opinion before throwing them away, right?”
Jiang Jiaying’s face showed a trace of embarrassment.
“Sorry, my bad, I was wrong. I won’t throw them away next time, I apologize…”
Jiang Jiaying’s humble attitude caught me a bit off guard.
But what I didn’t expect was that Ding Yinuo would actually take Jiang Jiaying’s side. He looked at me and said indifferently,
“It’s just a bouquet of flowers. There’s no need to make a fuss over it!”
I looked up at Ding Yinuo. His gaze was still without any fluctuations, chillingly cold.
Ding Yinuo’s tone wasn’t really that harsh, but his attitude had obviously favored Jiang Jiaying.
From the moment I entered, he had been cold towards me, and now, he was blatantly protecting Jiang Jiaying, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
Since when had I become so insignificant in his heart?
But it was clearly Ding Yinuo. Why did I feel he had become so unfamiliar?
