The injury to Lu Sisi felt like it was hurting Di Jianhan himself. He feigned pain, harboring his displeasure towards Di Mingjue.
"Mingjue, you'd better explain yourself!"
It was a simple matter of bringing her back, so why did someone end up getting hurt?
Di Mingjue looked at Lu Sisi, who was sweating profusely, and casually replied, "There's nothing to explain. I've found her for you. I'm leaving now."
"Where do you think you're going!" Di Jianhan grabbed a pillow and threw it at him, blocking his exit. "Sisi's leg is injured. You'll take her back and let the family take good care of her."
"It's better to be home than in the hospital. It's perfect for you two to keep each other company," Di Mingjue said earnestly.
The VIP room was large enough to fit another bed. Besides, they weren't the type to sleep apart, so one room would be better.
"Discharge her for me," Di Jianhan commanded.
Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Lu Sisi interrupted the doctor's bandaging and rushed forward to ease the tension. "Uncle, it's not Mingjue Ge's fault. I fell and injured myself when I got out of the car."
Her words eased the atmosphere, but Di Jianhan still blamed Di Mingjue. "I asked you to find her, not to let her get hurt. You will take good care of her during this period."
"No, you don't have to." Lu Sisi quickly refused. "Mingjue Ge works very hard every day; he doesn't need to take care of me."
She had finally found a reason for them to have more intimate contact, so why would she let such an opportunity slip through her fingers?
Di Jianhan made up his mind without consulting anyone. "Alright, this matter is settled. There's no need to discuss it further."
Lu Sisi was overjoyed. She had gotten injured precisely to create this situation. However, seeing Di Mingjue's expressionless face, she felt a wave of anxiety.
"Is that possible?" Di Mingjue gazed at Di Jianhan's determined look. "I've brought the person here. I'm leaving."
As soon as he spoke, Shen Lin stepped forward and adjusted the wheelchair.
The pillow that had fallen to the ground was kicked aside. Di Mingjue left the room amidst Di Jianhan's roar.
Her hopes dashed, Lu Sisi watched Di Mingjue depart. She shoved the doctor away and, limping, chased after him.
"Mingjue Ge, Uncle isn't blaming you. He just, just wants you to treat me a little better so I don't feel awkward staying at the Di residence."
The freshly bandaged wound started bleeding again due to her commotion. Her loose hair became disheveled as she ran, making her look like a madwoman.
Di Mingjue coldly ordered, "Move aside!"
"Ming..."
Lu Sisi was pulled aside by Shen Lin.
As the person moved away from her, Lu Sisi resentfully broke free from Shen Lin's arm.
"Miss Lu, if you don't want them to argue, you should rest and recover in the hospital," Shen Lin kindly reminded her.
It wasn't his place to lecture her!
Lu Sisi ignored Shen Lin's good intentions and turned back towards the ward.
Her running out had made Di Jianhan quite anxious. He ordered the doctor to push him out.
"Sisi, why are you chasing that brat?" Di Jianhan became angry whenever he mentioned Di Mingjue.
Lu Sisi forced out tears, looking wronged.
Seeing her tears, Di Jianhan immediately panicked.
"Don't cry, don't cry."
Lu Sisi cried until she was gasping for breath, her quiet sobs escalating into wails filled with grievance.
"Did that brat bully you on the way back? Or did he do something else to you just now?" Di Jianhan asked nervously.
Shen Lin, who had not yet left, stood awkwardly. He didn't know whether to stay or go.
Unable to find Di Mingjue, Di Jianhan shouted at Shen Lin, "Come here!"
Shen Lin glanced around and walked over reluctantly.
"Go and call that brat back for me."
"Chairman, President Di has already returned."
