My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy - Chapter 297: 297 Prepare for This Battle_1
Chapter 297: Chapter 297 Prepare for This Battle_1
I originally came to see Wu Lijuan.
I didn’t expect Gu Yuanzhou to set a trap for me here.
Needless to say, as soon as I go in, he will definitely find a way to detain me.
I don’t want to gamble, and I can’t afford to anymore.
Actually, I already know what Song Zexi is going through, and I haven’t figured out how to explain it to Wu Lijuan yet.
After a lot of thought, I hurriedly turned around and left.
Half an hour later, I picked up my phone and dialed back on Wu Lijuan’s number.
“I’m sorry, ma’am, something urgent came up, so I have to cancel our meet-up today. Or…we can meet another day.”
“Oh, okay… Actually, I don’t have anything else, I just wanted to ask about Zexi. I haven’t seen him in a long time, can’t reach him on his phone, and can’t find him anywhere, have you seen him?”
I remained silent.
Another heartbroken and desperate mother, I really don’t know what to say to her.
After thinking for a while, I said,
“Ma’am, you can ask Gu Yuanzhou! A few days ago, I saw Gu Yuanzhou with Zexi! He should know.”
“Alright, good… Thank you!”
After hanging up, I held my phone, lost in thought.
This problem was created by Gu Yuanzhou.
Since he got her son into this mess, he should take responsibility for it.
I spent the night in the hospital.
I moved a recliner next to the bed and stayed with Ding Yinuo…
By the next morning,
As the sun was rising, I opened the window, let the sunshine in, casting it on Ding Yinuo’s face.
“Yinuo, the weather is great today, so sunny! Can you feel it?”
“I can’t stay with you today, I got a call from your brother, I have to go to the office.”
“Yinuo, don’t worry, Tianjiao [Chinese name] has me, there won’t be any problems.”
“Yinuo, if you can hear me, blink, or move your finger, so I can know you’re there, okay?”
I stared at Ding Yinuo’s face for a long time, but there was no change.
Just like yesterday!
I shook his hand, said goodbye!
“Yinuo, see you in the evening! I’m off to work now!”
In fact, it was Ding Xiao who called me around eight in the morning.
Since Ding Yinuo’s accident, Ding Xiao has been taking care of things at the company.
Perhaps it’s because he’s been through so many family changes, this man, who’s only now middle-aged, has some white hair at his temples.
From afar, he looked so firm and resolute.
Indeed, with Ding Yinuo down, Ding Xiao is the only pillar in the family. He can’t fall.
When he saw me approaching, only then a hint of a smile appeared on his face.
“Xiaosong, you’ve lost a lot of weight recently!”
“That’s one way to lose weight!”
“How’s the injury on your head?”
“The bandages have been removed… the wound is almost healed, but there’s a piece of my hair missing. I’ll have to figure out how to get a hair transplant later.”
“You’re a brave girl!”
Ding Xiao’s voice was like a bass drum, full of richness, calm, and depth.
“Really? I didn’t notice!”
“If it were any other girl, they would be crying their eyes out after losing this much hair! And you are so calm…”
I chuckled, as a woman who has been through death once, losing a patch of hair, even a finger, isn’t scary.
“Big Brother Ding, you urgently called me back. Is there anything important?”
“I have some good news for you!”
“What?”
“The designs you competed with last time won a place in the finals in Hong Kong! The organizers have invited the designers to attend the award ceremony.”
“So, did we win?”
This came as a surprise.
“The organizers didn’t say, but based on my experience, you probably have a chance to win, but we won’t know what the prize is until we’re there. I know you’ve been feeling really down lately because of what happened to Yinuo. You don’t have to go if you don’t want to, but… Yinuo told me once that he really hoped you would win!”
I understood what Ding Xiao meant.
Indeed, I’m not in the mood to entertain these things right now.
But since this is what Ding Yinuo really wants, I have to do it.
“Big Brother Ding, I will go. It’s just a day’s trip back and forth! I hope Yinuo can hear this.”
“Alright, thank you!”
Ding Xiao patted my shoulder,
“Yinuo didn’t get it wrong, you are a sensible and courageous woman.”
I gave a bitter smile, relative to the praise from others, I just wanted some encouragement from Ding Yinuo.
If only he could wake up!
In the afternoon, Wenya accompanied me to the beauty salon to get a hair transplant.
Because the scalp was damaged, a large piece of hair was missing, it was very noticeable, especially when attending such an important ceremony.
Naturally, I’d have to make myself look better, after all, I’m going there on behalf of Tianjiao.
What I need is not the stage and the spotlight, but for Tianjiao to soar high with my help.
“Sorry, miss, if you’re going to get a hair transplant, your hair needs to grow out. That takes several months.”
After talking to the beautician, I gave up the idea of a hair transplant.
I decided to wear a wig to the award ceremony…
After trying a few styles, I finally chose a short bob that reached my collarbone, with bangs.
In order to suit this hairstyle, I simply got a buzz cut…
It perfectly suited Song Xiaoyun’s small, quaint face. It was lively, adorable, and classy.
“This hairstyle is light and it matches your face shape, you wouldn’t feel pressured. But the downside is that it’s easy to fall off, so you need to be careful. As long as you don’t dance or do vigorous exercise, the wig won’t fall off.”
“Thank you!”
Looking at the perfect hairstyle in the mirror, I was very satisfied.
Originally Ding Xiao wanted to send me off, but I knew Ding Yinuo needed him to stay. Besides, Tianjiao needed someone too.
I can’t let Gu Yuanzhou seize the opportunity to raid the Ding family when they’re weak.
I managed to persuade Ding Xiao to stay, and eventually headed to Hong Kong alone.
Wenya took me to the airport. Before we parted, she hugged me and couldn’t hold back her tears. A flood of words condensed into one sentence.
“Ding Yinuo is waiting for you, we’re waiting for you to come back!”
“Don’t cry, Wenya, I’ll be back soon, then we can go have a drink together!”
Wenya might have perceived some kind of danger.
She hugged me several times, constantly reminding me to take care of myself.
I had long gone through security, yet she stood still, waving frantically at me.
Just before I was about to board the plane, my phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was a message from Wenya.
“I heard from Su Peisheng that Zhenyi Company is also participating in the competition. They are even sponsors of the event. You might come across Ye Mengyan at the ceremony… You must stay calm and return as soon as the award ceremony is over.”
I replied to Wenya, “Don’t be afraid, I was thinking of meeting her!”
