Chapter 2162: Chapter 2164: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

"And then?"

The voice on the other end sounded indignant, "At that time, I cursed him out over the phone, told him to get lost, never to call me again, that I sure as hell wouldn’t help him speak well of you."

In reality, her cursing was even more furious.

She used every rude word to greet him, not thinking much at the time, just wanting to stand up for her best friend, cursing as harshly as she could. Later, when she calmed down, she felt a chill thinking she had cursed out a future mayor.

"He told me he was outside my house. I was so angry; I told him you weren’t there, that if he didn’t leave I would call the police, and then I hung up, planning to come out to see you, to get your opinion. Who knew that when I came out, I’d see you fainted on the sofa, scared half to death. I kept shouting your name and tried to carry you to the hospital. In the midst of this, he broke the door and came in."

Jiang Nuan remembered nothing, she had no impression of it at all.

"So it was him who took you to the hospital that day. It must have been the time you said you got caught in the rain. He carried you out in a hurry, and it was raining heavily outside. I was so scared I forgot to bring an umbrella. He just held you in the rain and brought you to the car. I saw him hunching down, trying to use his arms to shield you from the rain. I didn’t know he was injured... Later, when your condition stabilized, I kicked him out of the ward. Nuannuan, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have hidden this from you, but I was too angry at the time, thinking he stood you up to go on a date with Gu Qing, making you wait in the rain for four hours, catching a severe fever and ending up in the hospital. I didn’t want to hear his explanation, just focused on defending you. After calming down, I thought about telling you, but by then you had already informed me you divorced him. I thought it was pointless to mention it since the two of you were already divorced, and it was hard enough for Nuannuan to start a new life, so why bring it up to make my friend’s heart ache again."

"Later I heard he had a leg problem. I didn’t know if it was related to those incidents. It wasn’t until you told me today that I realized it might have something to do with that day. Nuannuan, I’m really sorry."

Jiang Nuan heard the voice of her guilt, her mind blank, not even knowing how to comfort Lemon or how the call ended.

She sat soulfully in the living room for a long, long time, long enough for the outside to turn dark, stars to appear, and her stomach to make protesting noises, before she returned to her senses like a ghost, burying her head between her knees, warm tears wetting her eyes.

It was so painful.

Her heart felt so painful.

Her nose felt so painful.

Every part of her body felt so painful.

Her soul seemed to be torn to shreds, indescribably painful, but just heartbreakingly painful.

Jiang Nuan curled up in pain on the sofa, breathing rapidly, her brows tightly furrowed, her oval face pale without a trace of color, her lips bitten until they bled.

"Ding ding ding."

Just then, the doorbell of the empty house rang.

"Ding ding ding."

At first, she ignored it, but the person was determined to make her open the door, refusing to leave otherwise.

Jiang Nuan wiped her tears, her feet feeling like they were treading on cotton, and opened the door from the inside.

The familiar face of the Filipino maid appeared in front of her eyes.

"Is there something?" Jiang Nuan’s voice was extremely hoarse, her eyes swollen and red.

The maid looked at her, noticing something was wrong, peeking inside to find it dark, then looked down to see Jiang Nuan barefoot without even slippers on.
