C56 See You Again

"Ou Jia Rui, you should rest for a while. We will only leave the hospital at night anyway." Ou Jia Rui worked overtime last night to deal with the documents and had just had a round of social meetup, but she was still forcing herself to keep up with me.

As Ou Jia Rui indifferently stared at the TV, she said, "I'm not too tired, it's so boring to be awake by yourself."

I raised the book in my hand and showed it to Ou Jia Rui. "The nurse gave it to me this morning, saying that if you read more calming American script when you're pregnant, it'll be good for your child. I'm reading, you can sleep."

The person who just said that he wasn't sleepy gradually calmed down after lying on the bed for a short period of time and fell into a deep sleep. I silently cursed in my heart. He was obviously tired, yet he still insisted on trying to be brave. After saying that, I quietly got out of bed and tightly closed the door to the ward to prevent anyone from coming to us.

Ou Jia Rui slept until dusk before slowly waking up:

"What time is it now?"

"It's just after six o'clock. It's still early, so you can sleep a little longer."

"I'm not sleeping anymore." Ou Jia Rui got off the bed and went to the bathroom to quickly wash up. "You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go home and eat later."

"Alright." I got up to pack up the clothes and daily necessities that we had left behind for the past few days, but a big hand stopped me. "Let me do it. You should change your clothes. It's a little cold outside, so don't wear a dress." She handed me a warm sweater and a pair of baggy pants, and I obediently took them to the bathroom.

As I was coming out, the doctor came to check on me.

He was carefully recording the doctor's instructions with a tape recorder on his cell phone. Basically, whenever I got sick and went to the hospital or did a pregnancy test, he would record it so carefully that he would go home and tell me what the doctor had told him. If one day he really became a father, he would be a good and dutiful father.

After saying goodbye to the doctor, I carried my handbag, and O'Jia Rui dragged a huge suitcase out of the room.

I looked at him as he held onto my elbow. For a moment, I was speechless. "Well, I just have a little hypoglycemia, and it's getting better. You don't have to support me." As if she couldn't hear what I was saying, she continued to hold onto my arm.

As I took the elevator to the underground parking lot, a familiar car appeared in front of me. The person in the driver's seat was not a stranger to me.

It was Lin Qian.

I subconsciously gripped onto Ou Jia Rui's sleeve. Lin Qian's legs seemed to have recovered, and there wasn't anything unusual when he walked, so he wouldn't come to the hospital for no reason. It seemed like he was accompanying Ou Jingyi on her labor inspection.

I quickened my pace to avoid them, thinking that I couldn't afford to offend them.

Ojira, who had been looking down at my feet, didn't notice this anomaly.

After getting into Ou Jia Rui's car, Lin Qian coincidentally found a parking spot, opened the back door of the car and helped the weakened Ou Jingyi out. Because the distance was not too far, Ou Jingyi's face was pale, beads of sweat continuously dripped down her face, and I could clearly see the pained expression on her face.

In the end, I was still a mother. My heart's sympathy overcame my disgust towards Lin Qian and Ou Jingyi.

"Jia Rui, do you think that's Miss Ou?" There was urgency in my voice.

Ou Jia Rui thought that I saw that Ou Jingyi didn't want to see them, so she focused on driving as she comforted me, "That's right, that's right, she should be here for the pregnancy test. Let's just go home, there's no need to greet her."

"No, she seems to be in a lot of pain, could something have happened to her?" Only then did Ou Jia Rui turn her head and look in the direction of my finger. She found a spot in the car and stopped it, "Wait for me here for a moment, I'll go ask what happened. It won't be long. Don't worry."

After saying that, Ou Jia Rui got out of the car and ran in the direction of Ou Jingyi. When she rolled down the window, Ou Jingyi noticed my existence. I saw the jealousy and hatred in her eyes as she gazed at me.

I looked at their backs with an indescribable feeling in my heart. Even when I was in pain and sick, when Ou Jingyi saw Ou Jia Rui, she immediately broke away from Lin Qian's support. I watched as Ou Jia Rui half dragged Ou Jingyi into the elevator.

After about an hour, I was back in the parking lot, half asleep from waiting.

"Are you in a hurry?"

"I'm fine." I braced myself and refastened the seat belt I'd unfastened because I felt uncomfortable. "How's Miss Ou?"

"I'm not sure about that yet, but you don't need to worry about that for now. Let's go home." I'm not a child, and it's clear that Ojaru didn't want to tell me, so I stopped pursuing this line of questioning.

As the car drove to the Ou house, I had a good meal and went upstairs to my room with Ochira.

After returning from the hospital, Ou Jia Rui had been a little absent-minded. If it wasn't for the fact that she really needed his permission, I didn't want to disturb him at this time.

After washing up, I lay down on the bed side by side with O'Jia Rui.

After a long time, I finally thought of a way to put it, "Um, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, why?" His voice was still as deep and pleasant as ever.

"There's nothing wrong with my body. I forgot to eat and rest that day. I just need to follow a healthy schedule. Can I go back to work tomorrow?" I asked expectantly.

"No, Yaoyao, Ou Family isn't like other companies, our pace and efficiency are always very fast, you are a pregnant woman, I originally arranged to be your secretary in order for you to take good care of yourself in my line of sight, I didn't expect you to like work so much, suddenly you even rushed to help your colleagues do things." Ou Jia Rui explained patiently.

"Then I promise I won't do this anymore. I will just deal with the matters within my responsibility. I finally managed to get a job. I don't want to just let it go like this." I was still making my last struggles.

Ou Jia Rui was silent for a long time. It was so long that it wiped clean all of my hopes. When I was ready to go to sleep, he sighed.

"Alright, then you must remember what you promised me today."

"Alright." Satisfied, I fell asleep.

The next morning, I specially got up ten minutes early, put on a slightly more energetic daily makeup for myself, ate breakfast, and then went to work with O'Jia Rui at the company.

Due to just returning, I was already unable to keep up with the progress of the project. But luckily, although Ou Jia Rui isn't with the company, she was able to monitor the project from afar using her laptop in the hospital. The matter is about to come to an end.

Although they were familiar with it, they were actually just looking at the information, waiting for the various departments and secretariats to submit their materials.

Ou Jia Rui stayed at the company for about an hour, then got up and told me: "I'm going out to go to the hospital to see Jingjing. I'll be back for lunch with you."

After all, she grew up with Ou Jia Rui, and I had no reason to stop her from doing so.

For a few days in a row, Ou Jia Rui went to visit Ou Jingyi after finishing work. Although she would come back to eat with me every noon, I still felt like we were getting farther and farther away from each other.

Today, as usual, I was working on my paperwork while I waited for O'Casari to call and let me go down to the parking lot to eat with him.

Sure enough, the call still came five minutes before he got off work. The content of the call was: "I'm not going back to eat today. You must remember to eat on time. I'll be back in the afternoon."

I forcefully suppressed the unhappiness in my heart and said, "Alright, then come back early. It's the celebration wine party for the project tonight. My colleagues have invited me to join them. Do you have time?"

"If I have time, I can accompany you there. After you eat and rest, I'll have Xuan Zi take you to dress up."

"Alright, I'll wait for you." After I hung up, I no longer had any appetite for food, but for the sake of the baby in my stomach, I reluctantly went to the employee dining room for some soup.

Maybe it was my psychological effect, in the past when I ate in the staff dining hall, it was always because I was with Ou Jia Rui. The only time Ou Jia Rui wasn't here was when I ate with Qian Xue.

I ate something at random, ran back to the CEO's office, unable to stand the attention.

Pregnant women were pregnant. I didn't have much appetite just now, but after waking up from a lunch break, I started to feel hungry again. Remembering that there seemed to be a bottle of honey in Ozara's personal refrigerator, I stood up to make myself a cup of hot milk and honey to replenish my hunger.

Or it could be said that the teahouse was always the company's gossip gathering place.

Like last time, some of the employees had already eaten, but it was not yet time to go to work, so they were all preparing their own coffee in the tea room while the children shared the latest gossip.

At this moment, I wasn't in a very good mood and wanted to directly walk in, instead of taking care of their emotions like last time. However, after hearing the two words' Ou Jingyi ', my steps felt like lead and I couldn't move no matter how hard I tried.

"Madam, you ate lunch by yourself today. How strange. Isn't it true that a 24 year old husband like our CEO won't be separated by even a single inch?"

A girl who worked in the Secretariat took it. "You don't know about this, right? Recently when I went to look for Madam in the morning to review the documents, CEO Ou was not at the office. It was said that Miss Ou was sick. Did Director Ou go to the hospital to see her?"

"Is that so? Who is this Miss Ou? Is she CEO Ou's sister?" The girl who asked the question was obviously new to Ou Family's office.

"I don't know the specifics, but it shouldn't be CEO Ou's sister. I guess she's probably related to CEO Ou like a cousin."

"Does Director Ou need to visit her every day to leave the madam in charge here by herself?" That girl said exactly what I wanted to say.
