Chapter 38: Why Did the Photo Get Torn?
Time, like a ceaseless river, never paused for anyone’s emotions.
Early the next day, Yu Shiya arrived at the hospital early, waiting for Si Chen felt like an endless period of discomfort and anticipation. There were several times when she thought about giving up and just leaving. However, her unwillingness to lose eventually prevailed; She was determined to ask Si Chen what made Tong Yao superior to her.
Due to Tong Yao’s disturbance last night, Si Chen had a restless sleep, and came to the hospital early in the morning. When he pushed open the door there was a brief moment of hesitation, but his expressions quickly returned to normal. Like nothing had happened, he walked into his office, put on his white gown without uttering a word.
Yu Shiya bit her lip as she watched Si Chen. Seeing him treating her with such disregard, she felt an inexplicable sense of grievance that made her eyes, which were still swollen from recent tears, well up once again.
"Doctor Si, didn’t you see me? Why don’t you greet me?"
Si Chen turned to look at her, seeing her reddish eyes, he furrowed his eyebrows slightly, "It’s not appropriate for you to be here."
Her patience, which had been stretched thin after a night of hurt feelings, snapped with this comment like a powerful tide. Yu Shiya unleashed her flood of tears, "What is inappropriate? I just wanted to come and talk to you. I, as an unmarried woman, am not scared; what is making you afraid?"
"You may be unmarried, but I am married." Si Chen’s tone was uncharacteristically cold, seeming unwilling to have further conversation with Yu Shiya, especially after noticing her tears. "Your crying here doesn’t look good."
