Chapter 202: Making things worse
Zi Shan really didn’t know, because Jiang Tao could only be described as a good friend to her, and had never made any ambiguous moves towards her, and even her eyes were never open, and she didn’t like to turn around her – she just didn’t dream of the day when Lin Hao would tell her that Jiang Tao was fond of her.
Lin Hao met Zi Shan’s eyes and nodded with certainty: ”Right. If Jiang Tao wasn’t a little deep in the water, I’m afraid he’d be unable to pull himself out of it and end up harming himself, I wouldn’t have told you, there’s nothing wrong with Jiang Tao liking you, who can’t have someone they like? It’s just that he’s not in a good state right now, we as his friends should let him come to his senses, right?”
He let out a long sigh, “I don’t blame him, because Zi Shan you are very good that’s why you attracted Jiang Tao, it’s just that for the sake of Jiang Tao’s well being we can’t just let him go on like this, but of course it’s not good to point it out, Jiang Tao is really a very good friend, and the only way to do that is to let him fade away. When he figures it out, he’ll naturally let go and go find his true love, and we’ll still be good friends then. Really, Zixan, it’s not his fault, it only confirms that it’s your good.”
Zi Shan looked at him and pursed her lips without speaking again, as if she really didn’t know what to say well, blinking her eyes at Chu Xiang and Xue Jing, seeing the same shock in their eyes, but obviously their shock was greater than hers, and it seemed to be tinged with a few hints of hidden anger.
Xue Jing spoke up, ”How could Jiang Tao? Lin Hao, don’t be paranoid, what kind of person is Zi Shan that you’re not clear about, or what kind of person is Jiang Tao that you don’t know? There won’t be anything at all, won’t you embarrass Zi Shan by saying that? There’s no such thing, I can’t see that Jiang Tao is anything special to Zi Shan, it’s the same as our family’s fatty is to Zi Shan.”
Chu Xiang walked over and held Zi Shan’s hand, “Lin Hao, Zi Shan is still recuperating.” Her anger was about to be suppressed because she really hadn’t expected Lin Hao to be so shameless, she and Xue Jing weren’t quite sure why Lin Hao had said this to Zi Shan, but his intentions were clear.
Lin Hao shrugged his shoulders: ”I was more shocked than you guys when I found out, if Jiang Tao wasn’t in love with Zi Shan, always wanting to stay by her side, and didn’t like it when I came to the hospital to stay with Zi Shan, I wouldn’t have said anything, he’s my good brother anyway, I just hope that he’s just in a momentary state of confusion, and that we can still help him come to his senses. Zi Shan’s matter, it’s better to trouble him less in the future.” He looked at Zi Shan and made a decision, believing that Zi Shan wouldn’t object.
How many normal women like to see someone’s brother turn against them for her? Zi Shan naturally wanted to be far away from Jiang Tao when she found out, and wouldn’t treat Jiang Tao like she did originally – that was Lin Hao’s purpose.
Lin Hao’s brows also have a trace of bitterness, not he wants to plot Jiang Tao but he does not want to lose Zi Shan, Jiang Tao will be traced to the peace hospital, so he has an unprecedented sense of crisis. Some things are not that he does not want to deal with, but need time, before dealing with it if you let Jiang Tao say a few other words to Zi Shan, God knows what will be the consequences.
He had to, for the sake of his and Zi Shan’s future happiness, he had to make Jiang Tao disappear from Zi Shan’s life, and he really didn’t want to see Jiang Tao guarding Zi Shan’s side anymore, as if he was Zi Shan’s guardian god, knowing that he was the one who was going to guard Zi Shan and had the ability to be able to protect Zi Shan very well.
Zixan shook her head, “How could this happen?” After sighing a few times she looked at Lin Hao, “It’s getting late, go to the office, you haven’t been there for many days, you can’t completely drop your work. Be careful driving, you don’t have to worry about me either, there’s still Chu Xiang and Xue Jing here.” She didn’t want to talk about Jiang Tao anymore.
And Lin Hao want is this result, know that Zi Shan already have a knot in the heart, no matter others in or out Zi Shan will not be like the original treatment Jiang Tao, and Jiang Tao is a smart person, when the time will naturally feel, based on his nature will not be stalking or ask questions, will only be far away from Zi Shan.
He shook Zishan’s hand and smiled: “I’ll be back as soon as possible, you do not get out of the hospital one day I can not let go of the heart, and now the doctor let you eat, can eat to eat more, remember? For the sake of the baby, for my sake you can’t be too sloppy with yourself.” After saying his words, he tidied up Zi Shan’s quilt again before looking at Chu Xiang and Xue Jing.
“You guys stay with Zi Shan for a while, we’ll have to trouble Fatty at noon, my father’s side will be discharged from the hospital in the next few days, so you won’t have to be so tired by then, I’ll remember in my heart all the good you’ve done for Zi Shan.” After he finished speaking, he turned back to Zi Shan and smiled again, “Then, I’m leaving.” The flavor of reluctance overflows out.
Zi Shan nodded, “Take care on the road.” She watched Lin Hao go out with a thoughtful look on her face, needless to say Lin Hao’s words were too much of a shock to her, perhaps for a moment she was still a bit unable to accept them? Or was she trying to find a way to alienate herself from Jiang Tao?
Chu Xiang for Jiang Tao, for Lin Hao’s words and angry: “Zi Shan, although Lin Hao and you are that kind of relationship, but you can not listen to everything he ah, Jiang Tao really do not have any bad intentions, since you were injured in the hospital after running before and after, if you listen to Lin Hao’s words to Jiang Tao to misunderstanding, that is really very hurtful.”
Xue Jing also nodded heavily, “That’s right, Jiang Tao really didn’t say a bad word about Lin Hao, but instead said a lot of good things for him, for example, he couldn’t stay with you for a long time, and Jiang Tao also explained to us for him either once or he was afraid that we would misunderstand him. Back a million steps, even if Jiang Tao is like you so what? It’s not like he’s ever made a move to hurt anyone, I don’t think that’s a crime.”
Zishan looked at Xue Jing and smiled, “If someone likes Fatty, and Fatty doesn’t think that it’s their fault and still maintains the original relationship with them, can you accept that? It’s true that there is no such thing as liking someone, and as the person who is liked, of course you can’t hate them for it, but shouldn’t someone who is married, or even someone who has a boyfriend or girlfriend, keep a bit of a distance from the person who likes them, lest they give birth to misunderstandings? It’s also a kind of respect for your spouse, and for your own life.”
Sojourner opened her mouth and didn’t say anything, because Zi Shan’s words are right, there is nothing wrong with liking someone, if the one who is liked doesn’t know about it naturally when they have a partner, if they know about it and still not too far away from the one who likes them, is that considered as a kind of implied encouragement? Is not some injustice to their partners?
Chu Xiang could not say anything, but she still thought that the wrong person was Lin Hao rather than Jiang Tao, because Jiang Tao had never let Zi Shan know that he liked her, if Zi Shan was not injured too much this time, she and so-and-so couldn’t have known how much Zi Shan weighed in Jiang Tao’s heart, but Jiang Tao still maintained a distance between him and Zi Shan, even if they had guessed a little bit but weren’t sure.
Today, Lin Hao took things out and said it in a dignified manner, which really made Chu Xiang despise Lin Hao, and as a man, it was too much. However, many of Lin Hao’s actions were inconvenient to say to Zi Shan right now, because of Zi Shan’s body they could only hide it, but letting her watch Lin Hao use his tactics was making her so angry that her liver hurt.
“You, you really don’t want Jiang Tao to come to the hospital anymore? Then how are you going to tell Jiang Tao?” After a while so and so quietly gently asked a sentence, she really do not want to see Zi Shan to Jiang Tao misunderstanding to, but she really can not think of a way to deal with, do not know how to let Zi Shan does not hurt the situation to understand that Jiang Tao is not a bad person, and Lin Hao is the person with evil intentions.
Zi Shan looked at her: ”Do you think Jiang Tao would be that kind of person? You also said that Jiang Tao said a lot of good things for Lin Hao, not only for you guys, but also for me ah, Lin Hao’s father was sick, or sick when he came to Blue Water City to see him, Lin Hao went to take care of his father with a heart attack there is nothing wrong – Jiang Tao was afraid that I would feel uncomfortable in my heart, and every time he had the chance to either joke or seriously enlighten me, said all about Lin Hao’s goodness.”
“Jiang Tao has never said half a ‘no’ to me about Lin Hao, as a brother, a good friend, he’s really spot on,” she frowned, “It’s Lin Hao’s words that surprised me, that Jiang Tao would come running around to help out It should be entirely for his sake, if I wasn’t his girlfriend, Jiang Tao wouldn’t be working so hard, right?”
She looked at Chu Xiang again, “What Jiang Tao did can be explained, no matter the kind words he said for Lin Hao, or the fact that he was busy with you guys taking care of me and the baby, well, there isn’t just one explanation for it, maybe he likes me maybe he doesn’t, but Jiang Tao didn’t want to give me any other thoughts, so when I’m with him, whether it’s in his eyes or in his expression, to his words as well as his actions, was never more than a friend.”
“I really haven’t thought about it too much, he’s always let me know that everything he’s done is because of Lin Hao’s existence, because he’s Lin Hao’s sworn brother and best buddy, that’s why he’s been nice to me and the baby. Today, Lin Hao is leading things in a different direction, it doesn’t really matter if it’s true or not, what matters is what Lin Hao is doing this for?”
She gently bit her lip, “Why does Lin Hao want me to distance myself from Jiang Tao? If he really doesn’t want me to have anything with Jiang Tao, the best thing to do is to keep it quiet, right? Anyway, he knows very well that I’m really just a friend to Jiang Tao, even if Jiang Tao likes me so what, with his intelligence can not know what my feelings for him? In the end, of course, it’s something that won’t be settled, so why do you have to pick it apart.”
Zi Shan crooked her mouth bitterly, “Today’s Lin Hao makes me dislike it.”
The worry in Chu Xiang’s heart immediately flew away, “You’re right, you’re very right, Jiang Tao isn’t a bad person, you shouldn’t distance yourself from Lin Hao because of his words, really. I shouldn’t have worried, who is Zi Shan, how smart is Zi Shan.”
Xue Jing also laughed: “No, our Zi Shan is smart, she can’t be fooled by a few words, it’s still business as usual at Jiang Tao’s place. At noon when Fatty is free Fatty will come to deliver the meal, when Fatty is not free we will still call Jiang Tao.”
Zishan looked at them with some doubt: “You guys, are you hiding something from me?”
