Chapter 181: Clarification_1

After hanging up the call, Jiang Yuzhu felt somewhat distressed. Her face remained expressionless as she drained the entirety of the soup Pei Jingchuan had ladled for her.

Pei Jingchuan noticed that something seemed off about Jiang Yuzhu. He smirked his lips, guessing that it might be related to the hospital, and chose not to comment.

Jiang Yuzhu is too proud. A word of comfort now might only cause her more distress.

Pei Jingchuan carefully picked her favorite pieces of fish with the serving chopsticks, making sure to remove all the bones.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yuzhu's eyes instantly reddened.

But she strongly resisted the urge to let her tears fall.

With her head hung low, she quietly ate her white rice without uttering a word.

After a while, her mobile phone rang again.

Jiang Yuzhu quickly picked it up. It was a call from Li He; her eyes brightened slightly at the sight of his name and she immediately pressed the answer key.
