C20 Self-comfort

"I am Ye Ping, what's the matter? Don't you remember me? " The other party reminded him.

"Oh, so it's you," Gu Xiaohui said in astonishment. "I haven't contacted you in a long time, why did you call me now?"

"I came here to ask you, did your husband get injured in Blue Sky Club and get hospitalized last night?" Ye Ping asked.

"You … How do you know about this? " Gu Xiaohui asked in surprise.

Ye Ping replied, "Don't worry about how I found out. I can't explain it to you over the phone. You just have to tell me which hospital your husband is in and which ward. I'll explain it to you when we meet, okay?"

Gu Xiaohui didn't know that the woman who drank with Wu Xu in the private room last night was her former classmate and best friend, Ye Ping. She also didn't know what Ye Ping was up to and didn't want the news of Wu Xu getting ripped off and beaten into a serious injury.

Therefore, she hesitated for a moment before asking Ye Ping, "Where are you now?"

"I'm at the city square!" Ye Ping replied.

"Then you can go to the Victoria Restaurant on the second floor of the city square and wait for me there. We'll talk when we meet!" Gu Xiaohui hung up the phone immediately.

When Gu Xiaohui answered the phone, Wu Xu was lying on the sickbed, eavesdropping. He clearly heard the contents of their conversation.

When he heard that it was Ye Ping who had called to ask Gu Xiaohui about his hospital condition, he felt a burst of panic, afraid that after the call between Gu Xiaohui and Ye Ping ended, she would ask him about last night's events within the Blue Sky Club. Knowing that he was unable to explain to Gu Xiaohui clearly, he could only close his eyes and pretend to be asleep.

However, after Gu Xiaohui put down Ye Ping's phone, she saw that Wu Xu had closed his eyes and knew that he had something on his mind that he didn't want to tell the truth, so she didn't want to argue with him. She could only glare at him angrily and walk out of the ward with her handbag.

Wu Xu opened his eyes. Gu Xiaohui had already left the ward.

Originally, he wanted to give Ye Ping a call in advance. The two of them should have known each other's location beforehand, but his phone was smashed by Shen Ao last night. How could he contact her?

Thinking back to last night when Ye Ping and Ye Ping were drinking and chatting with Ye Ping in the Blue Sky Club private room, Ye Ping getting drunk, her head on her thighs, lying on the sofa, and her husband Shen Ao suddenly barging in with people and slapping her twice, making people think that it was all a fantasy when they took her away.

"Last night, after Lili was brought home by Shen Ao, did she commit domestic violence against her?" Wu Xu began to worry about Ye Ping.

However, Wu Xu was even more worried about the reason why Ye Ping called Gu Xiaohui to ask about his hospitalization status. When they met, Ye Ping would tell Gu Xiaohui everything she said to her last night.

He knew that Gu Xiaohui was a woman who cared a lot about her reputation. If she knew that Wu Xu had spread the news of their married life and their unfortunate marriage, she would definitely vent her anger on him.

In that case, based on Miss Gu Xiaohui's temper and her unreasonable personality, this marriage would probably be annulled. No one would be able to persuade her otherwise.

Thinking about this, Wu Xu was very annoyed.

Thus, he consoled himself by saying, "Gu Xiaohui and I don't have any feelings for each other, so this marriage will happen sooner or later. Gu Xiaohui and I have no feelings for each other, so this marriage will happen sooner or later.

"..."

After Gu Xiaohui left Wu Xu's ward, she immediately took the elevator down to the parking lot on the lower floor and drove her BMW out of the City People's Hospital.

There were more pedestrians and cars on the street, which made it look very crowded. Gu Xiaohui was very anxious as she wanted to know about Wu Xu being beaten up in Blue Sky Club last night.

Despite her best efforts, it took her an hour to reach the city square and park in the underground garage.

He took the elevator up to the second floor and walked into Victoria's Coffee Shop.

She looked around the hall, but there was no trace of Ye Ping. Just as she was about to call her, Ye Ping, wearing sunglasses, stuck her head out of the booth and waved at her.

Gu Xiaohui walked to the side of the booth and lifted the curtain. She sat on the sofa opposite Ye Ping and asked,

"Ye Ping, what the hell are you doing? "He's wearing sunglasses in such a dark place. He's sneaking around like an underground worker …"

Suddenly, Ye Ping's face turned black and blue, and she stopped talking. Instead, she asked, "How did you do it? "Who beat you up like this?"

"Besides Shen Ao, who else do you think?" Ye Ping took off her sunglasses and said gloomily, "That b * stard Shen Ao only knows to bully his wife all day long. He gives me punches and kicks every now and then. This kind of life is really hard to live. I wanted to divorce him for a long time …"

In college, Gu Xiaohui had always disliked Shen Ao and repeatedly refused his pursuit, but Ye Ping had taken a liking to him. She would rather break off their relationship as best friends than be together with Shen Ao, and had often flaunted herself in front of him, saying how Shen Ao was good to her and did whatever means to help Shen Ao hurt Gu Xiaohui. This made Gu Xiaohui feel very uncomfortable; she didn't expect Ye Ping and Shen Ao to be so unhappy after their marriage, which made Gu Xiaohui sigh emotionally.

"Did you call me to talk about this?" Gu Xiaohui asked with a hint of schadenfreude.

"No," Ye Ping shook her head and said, "I just want to ask you about the hospital that Wu Xu was hospitalized in after he got injured. How is he?"

"It seems that you care a lot about our Wu Xu's matters," Gu Xiaohui said sarcastically. "Don't tell me you're thinking about our Wu Xu because you can't get any warmth at home?"

Although Gu Xiaohui didn't have a good relationship with Wu Xu and didn't look down on Wu Xu at all, making things difficult for him, often leaving early and returning late, closing the door of her master bedroom as soon as she got home and closing Wu Xu's door, Gu Xiaohui still didn't want to show weakness in front of this friend who had once hurt her, exposing her tragic marriage.

However, she didn't know that last night, when Ye Ping and Wu Xu were drinking in a private room in Blue Sky Club, they had already learned about their current marital status from Wu Xu. They knew that their relationship as husband and wife wasn't harmonious and had already reached the point of divorce.

Ye Ping felt that it was because of her that Wu Xu was injured by Shen Ao and the others. Gu Xiaohui and Wu Xu were husband and wife after all, and since she was ashamed of herself, she felt embarrassed to refute Gu Xiaohui.

Therefore, she stammered out, "Xiaohui, let's see where you have gone. I …" How dare I think about Wu Xu, Lord... "Mainly …"

"What's the main thing?" Gu Xiaohui asked anxiously.

Seeing Ye Ping hesitating to speak, Gu Xiaohui couldn't help but furrow her brows as she sized her up …
