Chapter 2150 -2149: Liked Him for a Long Time

“Is your arm okay?”

Wen Jin, who had stood up, didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he gazed deeply at Jing Xiaocha.

Jing Xiaocha instinctively shook her head, “It’s nothing, just a little tear in the wound.”

Wen Jin lightly pressed his thin lips together, his gaze lingering on her for a few seconds. He said gently, “Make sure you rest well these days.”

“Okay.”

Jing Xiaocha nodded lightly, ignoring the sadness in her heart.

Wen Jin didn’t stay any longer; he turned and left the hospital room.

He respected Jing Xiaocha’s wishes. Since she didn’t want him to stay and take care of her, he would give her some time to let the pain from what happened at noon fade from her heart.

In the following days, Wen Jin indeed didn’t come to the hospital.

He neither visited Ou Yihan nor came to take care of Jing Xiaocha.

Jing Xiaocha initially wanted to go downstairs to see Ou Yihan but thought better of it and dismissed the idea.

Ultimately, she still felt guilty about Ou Yihan.

But a few afternoons later, Ou Yihan, accompanied by Shi Tian, came to her hospital room.

Jing Xiaocha had just finished editing a script using voice input and was using her left hand to correct typos when she saw them enter, quickly closing her laptop.

“Xiaocha, why are you working while injured?”

Ou Yihan frowned in disapproval. As she spoke, she approached the bedside with Shi Tian.

Shi Tian shared the same disapproving expression, “Exactly, Xiaocha, why aren’t you focusing on healing but started working instead.”

Jing Xiaocha smiled faintly and said in a light tone, “It’s okay, I’m using voice software, just correcting a few typos.”

“No wonder the special nursing assistant said you were working and kicked her out.”

Ou Yihan teased.

Shi Tian let Ou Yihan sit in a chair, and Jing Xiaocha asked with concern, “Sister Ou, can you sit, or would you like to come onto the bed?”

“I can sit. I’ve been lying in bed all day and wanted to move around for a long time.”

Ou Yihan immediately refused Jing Xiaocha’s suggestion, looking like she was really terrified from lying in bed too long.

“You two chat, I’ll go out for a smoke and come back to pick you up.”

Shi Tian said this once and then left the space for Jing Xiaocha and Ou Yihan, stepping out himself.

“Xiaocha, I wanted to come see you a couple of days ago, but I couldn’t make it,” Ou Yihan started speaking proactively.

Jing Xiaocha apologized, “I should be the one going downstairs to see Sister Ou.”

“I’ve always wanted to apologize to you for what happened that day, on behalf of my mom. My mom isn’t usually unreasonable; she just didn’t know about my breakup with Ah Jin, which led to her misunderstanding you two.”

Ou Yihan’s apology made Jing Xiaocha feel deeply embarrassed, “Sister Ou, please don’t apologize, it was my fault, how can I blame Aunt Ou?”

“I’ve said things to you before that I shouldn’t have. Don’t take them to heart. Ah Jin and I have already broken up; whoever he’s with now is his own choice. If that person is you, I’d be happier.”

“Sister Ou.”

Jing Xiaocha called softly.

Ou Yihan smiled gently, “Since what happened that day, Ah Jin hasn’t been to the hospital. I suspect you told him not to visit you, right?”

“Sister Ou, how do you know Brother Wen hasn’t been to the hospital?”

“Silly girl, I’ve been keeping an eye on you.”

Ou Yihan laughed lightly, then added, “Ah Kai visited my room today and told me that Ah Jin hasn’t been to the hospital these past few days.”

“…”

Jing Xiaocha lowered her eyes, listening as Ou Yihan continued, “Xiaocha, I know what you’re thinking. You must feel that I would be hurt if you got together with Ah Jin just after we broke up.”

“Sister Ou, I actually lied to you before.”

“Lied about what?”

Ou Yihan was slightly startled, looking at her in surprise.

Jing Xiaocha paused for a few seconds, then said softly, “I’ve liked Brother Wen for a long time, even before I went abroad. But Brother Wen never liked me, so when you were with him, I truly never intended to take him from you.”

“I see.”

Ou Yihan realized.

Her intuition was right; she didn’t know what kind of feelings Wen Jin had for Jing Xiaocha, but she was sure Jing Xiaocha liked Wen Jin.

However, she didn’t know how long Jing Xiaocha had liked Wen Jin.

Now, hearing this, she suddenly felt like she was the third wheel between them.

She laughed suddenly, “Looks like you should thank me. I was the catalyst for your feelings with Ah Jin. If it weren’t for Ah Jin dating me, maybe it would have taken him longer to understand his own heart.” 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Jing Xiaocha couldn’t help but blush again at her teasing.

“Xiaocha, you and Ah Jin must be happy.”

Ou Yihan looked at Jing Xiaocha’s slightly flushed cheeks, her smile even brighter.

Even though she felt sad about not being with the person she liked, Ou Yihan hoped Wen Jin would truly be happy because he was someone she genuinely cared for.

“Thank you, Sister Ou.”

Jing Xiaocha sincerely expressed her gratitude.

“Silly girl, I used to say I saw you as a younger sister, not just because of Ah Jin, but because I truly liked you. If Ah Jin liked me instead of you, you’d be the one quietly blessing us.”

“…”

“So, you don’t need to thank me. I just don’t want to hold onto a relationship that doesn’t belong to me, let alone spend a lifetime with a man who doesn’t love me.”

“Sister Ou, you’ll definitely find someone who loves you very much.”

“I believe so too.” Ou Yihan smiled confidently and radiantly.

She believed that somewhere in the world, there was a man waiting for her.

“Even if you’re considering my feelings, there’s no need to stop Ah Jin from coming to see you at the hospital. It would only make me feel guilty.”

This was Ou Yihan’s purpose for coming up today.

She had already graciously given Wen Jin freedom, not caring about him getting with the girl he liked sooner. She would smile and wish them well, being a truly gracious woman.

“I…”

“Don’t ‘I’. I already called Ah Jin when I came up, asking him to visit you this afternoon, so don’t blame me for taking the liberty once.”

After saying this, Shi Tian pushed the door open and came in.

She stood up and said to Jing Xiaocha, “Xiaocha, take care of yourself. I’ll head back to my room.”

“Sister Ou, let me see you off.”

Jing Xiaocha immediately lifted the blanket and tried to get out of bed.

But Ou Yihan stopped her, “No need to get up, Shi Tian will help me back to my room.”

“Xiaocha, just rest well. With me here, Yi Han won’t lose a hair.”

Shi Tian smiled and helped Jing Xiaocha walk out of the room, spotting Mother Ou from a distance standing by the elevator.

“Auntie knows you’re in Xiaocha’s room. She seemed a little unhappy. You should behave later.”

Shi Tian whispered in Ou Yihan’s ear.
