Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 706: What He Couldn’t Settle It, Someone Else Would

Nico stopped his meticulous movements and folded the handkerchief neatly between the corners.

After that, Nico turned to look at Will and said slowly, “Why have you become like my mother?”

Will lowered his head slightly and did not say anything else.

Nico handed him the handkerchief. “Get out.”

“Yes.”

When Mu Xichen woke up, he was in the hospital.

It was a noisy, common six-person ward.

His head felt heavy. He turned around in a daze and saw a child.

The child laid on the hospital bed and looked at him with his round eyes. There was curiosity on his chubby face.

They stared at each other. After a long time, the child said, “Big Brother, your hand is bleeding.”

Mu Xichen looked down at his wound.

Blood had seeped out once again, through the white gauze wrapped around his arm.

Mu Xichen frowned and sat up.

The child looked at him and said, “Big Brother, you look so pale. Does it hurt alot?”

Mu Xichen smiled and did not answer.

He looked around, and found nothing.

At this point, Mu Xichen’s upper body was bare. He was wearing a pair of straight black trousers, and apart from the white bandages, there was nothing covering his body.

The various scars on his body attracted the attention of the patients and their families in the ward.

Mu Xichen got onto his feet. The child sat up as well, looking at Mu Xichen in surprise. “Big Brother, don’t you feel cold?”

It was January and the weather was cold.

Although Mu Xichen looked pale, the way he had gotten up made it seem like he did not feel the cold at all.

Mu Xichen shook his head. “No.”

As he spoke, he looked around and asked, “Little brother, do you have a cell phone?”

As he said this, he reached into his pocket and felt around. His wallet was still in there.

Mu Xichen took out his wallet and drew out two red notes. “May I borrow your phone for a while?”

The child looked about seven or eight years old, so of course he knew what money was.

He blinked and pushed the note back to the man. “No, Mom said that you can’t take someone else’s money. You can use the phone if you want.”

Immediately, he reached under his pillow for his phone.

“Little brother,” a woman stopped the boy. “Let this big brother go to the nurses’ station to make a call. It’s not easy for your family to pay for expensive phone bills!”

Expensive?

It was just a call, how expensive could it be?

Mu Xichen glanced sideways and realized that the woman had been observing him.

A sense of realization hit him, and he smiled bitterly.

Could it be that she saw the numerous scars on his body and thought that he was a bad person?

When the child heard this, he replied, “Not really. Mom has always told me it’s a joy to help others.”

“Helping others is a joy, but it also depends on whether you’re able to help.” The woman wore a mask and used her hair to cover her face. “Young lad, you should go to the nurse’s station. This child has been hospitalized for diabetes. In order to pay for his treatment, the family is in financial difficulties. You...”

How could Mu Xichen not know what she meant? He took the money back and said, “You’re right. I can make a call at the nurse’s station.”

As he spoke, Mu Xichen lowered his head to look for his shoes.

Fortunately, his shoes were there.

“Big Brother, just use mine.” The child held up the phone. “There’s credit in it still!” He waved the phone around with his tiny hand. “It’s so cold outside, Big Brother, don’t go.” As he spoke, he seemed to realize something. “Oh yes, my father left a piece of clothing here.”

He rummaged around on the bed and found a black jacket.

When the woman saw this, she anxiously said, “My word, child, why are you so passionate towards everyone? Your father has a hard time at work, and your mother works long hours every day to earn money for your treatment. Can’t you behave a little more! Don’t get your parents worried!”

Mu Xichen was amused and at a loss. He explained helplessly, “I’m a soldier, don’t be afraid.”

When the woman heard this, she was a little embarrassed and said, “Soldiers... shouldn’t soldiers go to military hospitals? Why have you come to a small hospital?”

Mu Xichen did not know how to explain it to her, but ultimately did not take the child’s phone. Instead, he took the jacket from the child and said, “Let me borrow your jacket for a while. I’ll come back after making a short call.”

“Okay!”

As Mu Xichen approached the nurse’s desk, a good number of nurses turned to look at him.

Some of the younger ones nudged each other and looked at him expectantly, their cheeks flushed.

Mu Xichen acted as if he hadn’t noticed this. He picked up the phone and immediately dialed Li Beinian’s number.

However, Li Beinian’s line gave a busy tone.

He made several tries, but none of them got through.

Mu Xichen frowned slightly and dialed T Jing’s number.

T Jing picked up very quickly. The young man’s voice was bright as sunshine. “Hello, TAT cleaning company.”

Mu Xichen was silent for a moment before asking, “When did you change your profession?”

When T Jing heard Mu Xichen’s voice, he immediately shouted, “Boss, you’ve finally called. My god, you scared me!”

Mu Xichen didn’t bother to say too much to him. “I’m in the hospital and have lost my phone. Help me get my number back and send a phone to me later.”

“Okay!” T Jing immediately responded. “Which hospital?”

Mu Xichen asked the nurse and quickly gave T Jing the address.

“Sure!” The man replied. But very quickly, he became a little hesitant and said, “Boss, there’s something I have to apologize to you about.”

“Uh huh?”

“It’s just... um... Sister-in-law was in a car accident, did you know?”

Mu Xichen on the alert immediately. His heart sank as he questioned, “Who did you say was in a car accident?”

T Jing felt a little guilty. Scratched his face, he said, “It happened yesterday. Didn’t I shout once? It was because I was shocked by the phone call. When Sister-in-law called Mu Donglin... she got into a car accident...”

Mu Xichen’s face darkened. “It’s such a big matter and you’re only telling me now!”

He barked sternly in a lowered voice.

His originally calm and indifferent demeanor immediately vanished with these words that were laced with frost.

The nurses’ hearts broke. But of course some of the bolder ones were attracted by his stern expression.

T Jing felt even more guilty and said, “At such a critical juncture, I was only thinking about the bigger picture...”

“Ha...” Mu Xichen sneered.” Which hospital? Pick me up and get me a clean set of clothes by the way. ”

T Jing felt a chill run down his spine. How would he dare to object? He immediately replied, “Yes!”

“You have 20 minutes. Otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences.”

T Jing was almost in tears and immediately agreed. He hung up the call in a great hurry.

Following this, against the advice of the doctors and nurses, Mu Xichen settled the discharge procedures.

Then, he returned to the ward.

Everyone looked at him as he walked in, including the child he was speaking with earlier. The child blinked and asked, “Big Brother, have you made your call?”

Mu Xichen nodded and said, “Yes I have.”

Then, he pointed at the jacket he was wearing, and continued, “Lend this to me first. I’ll return it later.” As he spoke, he took out a name card from his wallet. “If I’m not here by noon tomorrow, call me.”

The child took the black card and read the name on it. “Mo Xichen.”

“Uh huh.” Mu Xichen put on his clothes and said, “I’ll get going first.”

“Alright!” The child nodded and watched Mu Xichen leave.

The woman quickly went forward to look at Mu Xichen’s name card. Seeing the overly simple content, she said, “Who is this person? Why is there only a name and phone number of the name card?”

The child did not speak. He turned the card over and looked at the Shangzhi icon for a little while before carefully placing it under his pillow.

Very soon, T Jing arrived.

When he saw Mu Xichen waiting in the cold wind, he shivered in fear. He immediately opened the door and ran out of the car, handing him a down jacket.

Mu Xichen gave T Jing a glance and without a word, went straight into the back seat.

In his current get up, he’d looked pathetic in front of his wife.

While T Jing drove, Mu Xichen changed in the backseat.

As he changed, he asked, “How is she now?”

“She’s fine. She has a concussion and fractured her skull. There are also a few cuts on her face from the glass. It’s not serious, but she did hit someone.”

Mu Xichen frowned. “Is it a serious concussion?”

T Jing replied, “...The other party’s leg is broken!”

Mu Xichen had no interest in knowing what happened to the other party. After learning that Li Beinian was not doing too badly, he continued to change.

However, when he was putting on his shirt, he realized he couldn’t lift his arm.

Enduring the pain, he finally managed to dress himself, but the white bandage was covered in a fresh red hue again.

Mu Xichen felt a little dizzy. After sitting back for a while, he fell asleep.

When they arrived, T Jing glanced at the rear view mirror and jumped in shock. He shouted, “Boss!”

Mu Xichen was not someone who would just fall asleep casually!

T Jing observed his face again. Realized it was overly pale, he immediately asked, “Did you not have a blood transfusion?”

How would Mu Xichen know if he did? He glanced at him and then looked out of the window. “Have we arrived?”

“We’re here!”

T Jing parked the car and immediately got out to help him.

However, Mu Xichen seemed to be in excellent condition. The moment he got out of the car, he strode towards the hospital entrance.

Feeling guilty, T Jing shouted, “Wait for me!”

“Are you coming too?”

“Yes, yes. I haven’t seen Sister-in-law in person yet. I want to see her...”

“Go home.”

“No!” T Jing insisted.

Mu Xichen glanced at him. Seeing that he was wearing a mask and cap, he did not insist and strode in.

T Jingnan heaved a sigh of relief and followed Mu Xichen in. He had his own plans.

Mu Xichen’s current situation was probably not as optimistic as it seemed.

However, given the man’s temperament, he would definitely not listen to him if he were to persuade him to see a doctor and recuperate in the hospital.

When he would see Sister-in-law later, he planned to tell on Mu Xichen. If he couldn’t settle it, someone else would.
