Chapter 169: It Was Too Late

Zhao nan nodded at Xie Chen and took the initiative to lead the way for the two of them.

Over the years, Zhao Nan had suspected that there was someone in the coffee shop that Zhao Pu liked.

However, every time he went to the coffee shop and mentioned Zhao Pu to Xie Chen, Xie Chen always seemed to be talking about a stranger.

Due to this, Zhao Nan did not realize that Xie Chen might be that person.

Zhao Nan secretly cursed himself for being stupid and brought the two of them to the ward.

Shen You stood outside the door and did not walk in.

Zhao Nan had wanted to push the door open and enter, but was pulled back by Shen You.

Zhao Nan turned and glared at Shen You, only to see Shen You shake her head at him.

Xie Chen gently pushed the door open and walked into the ward.

In the ward, Zhao Pu was holding a book and carefully reading it.

He noticed the sound of opening the door but ignored it.

To take care of him, his family hired two nurses.

Every day at this time, the nurses would come over and change some toiletries for him.

Zhao Pu continued with his reading, lowering his head.

Xie Chen took a step forward and stood in the distance, quietly looking at Zhao Pu.

Seeing that there was no movement after the other party entered, Zhao Pu looked up. Then, his eyes froze.

He looked at the face that he missed day and night. But at this moment, he did not know what to say.

Looking at Zhao Pu’s stunning look and the injuries all over his body, Xie Chen felt a little heartache and helplessness.

Under Zhao Pu’s gaze, she took a few steps in the direction of the hospital bed.

When she was one meter away from the hospital bed, Xie Chen stopped.

The two of them remained silent for a long time as they looked at each other.

Suddenly, a series of violent coughs from Zhao Pu broke the silence in the ward.

Xie Chen was shocked. She quickly rushed forward and patted Zhao Pu’s back to help him breathe.

Zhao Pu gradually recovered from the cough. He raised his head and smiled apologetically at Xie Chen. “I hurt my lungs. I made you worry.”

Xie Chen quickly let go of her hand and stepped back.

Zhao Pu’s hand, which was originally supporting Xie Chen, was now suspended in mid-air.

He withdrew his hand somewhat helplessly and leaned against the hospital bed dejectedly.

“Please sit down,” Zhao Pu said as he raised his hand and pointed at a chair not far away.

Xie Chen looked at the chair and hesitated for a moment before walking over.

Xie Chen sat down on the chair and carefully sized up Zhao Pu. After a long while, she said, “Are you okay?”

Zhao Pu nodded slightly. “I’m fine. What about you?”

Xie Chen opened her mouth, but she hesitated.

After a long while, Xie Chen asked, “Why did you come back?”

With just one sentence, the atmosphere between the two of them returned to the freezing point.

After a long while, Zhao Pu said, “I want to try again.”

Xie Chen looked up at Zhao Pu with doubt in her eyes.

Zhao Pu raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling. “I want to give myself another chance.”

“In the past, I was too weak. I didn’t dare to face many things,” Zhao Pu said softly as he looked at Xie Chen.

“This time, I hope that I can use my efforts to take back everything that belongs to me,” Zhao Pu said as he stared at Xie Chen.

Xie Chen looked at Zhao Pu quietly as if she was not moved by his words.

Zhao Pu was not in a hurry. He only waited quietly for Xie Chen’s reaction.

After a moment, Xie Chen said, “Perhaps, everything has passed.”

When Zhao Pu heard this, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. “You… What do you mean?”

The corners of Xie Chen’s mouth twitched slightly. “Some things are already in the past. It’s too late to say anything now.”

“It’s getting late. I’m leaving now.” Xie Chen stood up and was about to leave.

“Xie Chen!” Zhao Pu was behind Xie Chen and shouted anxiously, “Can you give me another chance?”

Xie Chen turned around and looked at Zhao Pu. “Take good care of yourself.”

After Xie Chen finished speaking, she ignored Zhao Pu’s shouts and opened the ward door, and walked out.

The two eavesdroppers outside the ward were startled the moment they opened the door. They looked as if they had been caught at a crime scene.

Xie Chen ignored the two of them and walked straight ahead.
