Chapter 452: Chapter 450 Who the Hell Hit You_1

Mu Zisu’s hands clenched tightly as he stared at Xiaoxiao, who kept her eyes lowered.

Her eyelashes were long and dense, hiding her expression from his view as she kept her gaze down.

But just from her curt "no need" earlier, it was clear she had rejected his offer.

Rage inexplicably flared up within him, making him feel unusually out of sorts today, suddenly finding it hard to accept. Without considering what this might signify, all he knew was that he felt extremely irritable at that moment.

"Don’t worry... she’ll be able to return to work in a week. We’ve found someone to cover her duties..." Zhuo Shaoqing, seemingly oblivious to Mu Zisu’s fury, continued in his measured tone.

Mu Zisu suddenly shifted his gaze to Zhuo Shaoqing, and that look made Zhuo Shaoqing raise his eyebrows.

Xiaoxiao’s boss seemed to be reacting abnormally, his eyes looking as though he wanted to strangle Zhuo Shaoqing. He couldn’t understand it—he was the one who had hit Xiaoxiao, not Mu Zisu, and he was just Xiaoxiao’s immediate superior. Why such a look?

Could it be that he had other thoughts about Xiaoxiao?

Then, touching his own perfect chin and curling the corner of his mouth, he thought, of course, with a girl as innocent and beautiful as Xiaoxiao, even he couldn’t resist the impulse to pursue her. If this man shared the same thoughts, he could only say it was no surprise...

"Was it you who hit her?" Mu Zisu asked coldly.

"Yes... we’ve just spoken on the phone, I’ve already informed you..." Zhuo Shaoqing spread his hands.

"How do you drive?" Mu Zisu pressed him.

Not wanting any conflict to arise between them, Xiaoxiao blurted out without thinking, "It was my fault... I ran a red light..."

Mu Zisu’s temples suddenly throbbed. What a foolish woman!

Was running a red light something to be taken lightly?

"I’m the main one at fault here, so I’ll stay here for the week to take care of her. You go ahead with your business..." Zhuo Shaoqing said with his hands in his pockets, looking at Mu Zisu.

Mu Zisu bit down on his teeth silently, "She’s my employee, I will find someone to take care of her. You can leave..."

Zhuo Shaoqing let out a snicker, "I think I can take care of her much better here than those caregivers you might find... or you could also choose to have your caregivers stay here and help me look after her..."

Mu Zisu looked at Zhuo Shaoqing’s face, wishing he could punch him right then!

But as rational as he was, he understood how unreasonable that would be, he was just Xiaoxiao’s boss...

Afterward, he glanced at Xiaoxiao lying on the hospital bed, then stared at Zhuo Shaoqing and said gravely, "Do as you wish!"

After dropping those two words, he didn’t give Xiaoxiao another glance and turned away, striding off...

Xiaoxiao watched his retreating figure get further and further away, feeling an unstoppable sense of loss.

"Is your boss always like this?" Zhuo Shaoqing watched the departing figure, clicking his tongue and shaking his head.

Xiaoxiao sighed lightly, to which she had grown accustomed. But that’s how it usually was.

She nodded faintly at Zhuo Shaoqing, feeling a bitter taste spread in her heart.

"Understood..." Zhuo Shaoqing flicked the lock of hair on his forehead and said with a smile, "I’ll sleep on the couch. Call me when you need help..."

Xiaoxiao quickly spoke up, "You should go back. There’s no need for you to stay here..."

"Don’t be polite, this is what I should do..." Zhuo Shaoqing smiled, anyhow, his return this time coincided with a two-month long vacation, a rare occurrence every two years—it really wasn’t easy.

"It’s not that I..."

"I’ve rested... The door is open, call me if you need anything..." Zhuo Shaoqing didn’t give her time to express herself, turning and walking toward the outer room.

Na Xiaoxiao wanted to say she was uncomfortable sharing a room with a man.

But it seemed clear that her opposition was unnecessary.

Fortunately, this VIP ward had a small suite; otherwise, she would have firmly refused to let him stay and keep her company.

After Mu Zisu stepped out of the ward, the restlessness inside him didn’t subside but grew even stronger.

An icy aura emanated from his entire body, his handsome brows furrowed the whole time without a moment’s release, and his hands were clenched as if only by doing so could he prevent his truest emotions from slipping out.

The next morning, Na Xiaoxiao was awakened by a series of knocks on the door.

Her eyes, somewhat drowsy, opened, and when a stretch of white filled her vision, she was momentarily stunned—she had gotten used to seeing pink upon waking, and the sudden change in color left her brain lagging behind.

Before she could even get up, she heard Zhuo Shaoqing yawning loudly and grumbling, "I’m coming, I’m coming..."

Then there came an exclamatory cry from him, "My God! They really did come..."

She didn’t quite understand what he meant, but before long, she heard a series of footsteps neatly approaching her.

Finally sitting up straight, she saw six identical beautiful nurses walk into the ward.

Seeing her, they greeted her with smiles on their faces, "Miss Na... we will be taking care of you during this time..."

Na Xiaoxiao blinked twice and, seeing Zhuo Shaoqing enter behind them, shrugged helplessly towards her, she suddenly realized, oh... so, Mu Zisu had really brought some people over.

Her heart was immediately filled with mixed feelings. At least he still cared about her, but why did it still hurt so much inside...

With the arrival of the nurses, Zhuo Shaoqing had a lot less to do. Na Xiaoxiao didn’t know how many times she had told him to mind his own business, yet he insisted that he didn’t have much to do during his vacation, and then she listened to him talk about how much he loved racing, how important racing was to him, and some funny anecdotes.

The morning flew by like this, and around three or four in the afternoon, Zhuo Shaoqing’s buddies called him. Na Xiaoxiao fanned the flames on the side, and finally, this ’divine figure’ relented and stylishly went off to meet his friends.

Before leaving, he even took Na Xiaoxiao’s phone and dialed his own number, then left contented and in a rush.

Once Zhuo Shaoqing left, the ward became completely calm. Na Xiaoxiao lay in bed, gazing out the window with a faraway look in her eyes, they say that in their most vulnerable moments most people think of their parents—now, she really started to miss home...

As she was lost in thought, a hurried shout brought her back to reality.

"Xiaoxiao! Xiaoxiao..."

She turned her head--

Only to see Mu Zixuan rushing in from the outside at breakneck speed.

Her heart lifted with joy, and she sat straight up in bed.

"Shanshan..."

"Oh my goodness! Are you okay? Which damn blind person hit you? Where are they? They can’t have gotten away. I have to give them a piece of my mind!"
