She led Shi Ran into the living room with Shen Liannuo.
Inside the living room, Tang Si, who was drinking by himself, saw Shi Ran walk in. The hand holding his cup trembled violently, then he calmly resumed drinking.
Lu Yanming, seeing the group enter, nudged Tang Si and said in a low voice, "Shi Ran is here."
Tang Si put down his cup, picked up his wine glass, poured himself another drink, and continued to drink, feigning deafness and blindness!
The atmosphere in the living room became awkward.
Meng Jingwei had a sudden idea and said, "Does anyone here know how to fix cars? My car is broken, can you go down and take a look?"
Lu Yanming replied, "I'll go take a look."
As he spoke, he pulled on Qing Muye, "You and Lao Han also know how to fix things, go take a look together."
He got up and walked to the door. Seeing Shen Liannuo enter, his gaze swept over her from head to toe, his eyes full of doubt as if asking: Didn't you have a broken bone? How did you get better so quickly?
Shen Liannuo's eye twitched, and she immediately adopted a limping posture.
"Still pretending? Come out with me!" Lu Yanming frowned, grabbed her hand, and walked towards the door.
Shen Liannuo pouted, "Who's pretending? I'm limping as I walk."
The group all walked out. Meng Jingwei placed her hands on Shi Ran's shoulders and pushed her to sit beside Tang Si, saying, "You two talk properly."
"Sister Wei, I..."
Shi Ran was trembling with fear.
Meng Jingwei shook her head at her, reached out to pat her head, and soothed her, "Don't be afraid, it's okay."
She glanced at Tang Si again, "You two talk."
With that, she turned and left the living room, closing the door behind her.
The group opened another presidential suite. Since there were no more empty rooms on that floor, they chose the floor above.
After ordering food, everyone sat in the living room of the presidential suite to eat.
Meanwhile, after the others left, the living room fell silent.
Shi Ran nervously clutched her bag, lowered her head, and dared not speak.
Tang Si, however, calmly and composedly held his glass, pouring and drinking one glass after another.
Shi Ran knew he had vomited blood a few days ago, and she also knew he had internal injuries.
Seeing him drink red wine as if punishing himself, her heart felt uneasy, and she spoke to stop him, "Don't, don't drink anymore..."
Tang Si ignored her, continued to pour wine, and drank by himself.
Ultimately, Shi Ran couldn't stand it, reached out, and snatched the cup from his hand, "Don't drink anymore, don't you know your physical condition?" Her voice involuntarily rose in volume.
The man roughly brushed her hand away, let out a scoff, and said, "Who are you putting on a show for? You left, didn't you? What are you doing back here again? Hmm?"
"I..."
Shi Ran was speechless.
She pursed her lips in anger, knitted her brows, and met Tang Si's gaze, unable to say anything for a long time.
That day she encountered Tang Si and took him to the hospital.
Heaven knew how many struggles Shi Ran went through internally before she made up her mind to leave the hospital, find Tang Ziwei's phone number, and tell him that Tang Si was in the hospital.
Shi Ran admitted that she had low self-esteem due to her disfigurement.
She also admitted that because of the power behind the Zhao family, she was timid and dared not risk her family's lives.
But as an ordinary person, she had no ability to fight against power.
Shi Ran also felt wronged.
But who could understand such a grievance?
No.
Someone really could understand.
That person was... Yuan Wei.
Also ordinary people at the very bottom of society, facing financial shortfalls and threats from power, they both hated and struggled, but it was all in vain.
"Sister Wei told me you were going to become a monk, so I came to see."
She took a deep breath, feigning calmness, "Since you're fine, my staying here is redundant." After speaking, she stood up and turned to leave.
