Chapter 209 Zhang Long's Suspicion
While dealing with Cuicui, Qi Tongwei complained in his heart.
He thought to himself: "What bad luck I have! I haven't finished dealing with Zhang Long's matter yet, why am I here entangled with Cuicui? What a waste of time!" The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and his head was a mess.
Qi Tongwei was in a state of panic at the moment. He tried to reason with Cuicui: "Cuicui, can you calm down? I really can't be with you. Zhang Long is the one who truly likes you."
Cuicui didn't listen at all and shouted loudly: "I don't want to listen, I only want you! I don't like that old man Zhang Long at all!"
Qi Tongwei said helplessly: "Cuicui, you can't force relationships. I already have a family. There is no point in you doing this."
Cuicui cried and said, "I don't care. I have given my heart to you. You can't just reject me like this."
Qi Tongwei was really helpless as Cuicui kept pestering him. He looked at his watch and thought he couldn't go on like this any longer.
He raised his voice and said, "Cui Cui, no matter what you think, I can't accept your feelings. Zhang Long has good conditions in all aspects. Why can't you consider him?"
Cuicui said angrily: "I'll say it again, I have no feelings for Zhang Long! Don't push me towards him."
Qi Tongwei felt a great headache. He tried to break free from Cuicui's entanglement, but Cuicui held his clothes tightly.
Just when the two were in a stalemate, Qi Tongwei's cell phone rang.
He saw that it was Zhang Long calling. Qi Tongwei's heart tightened, and he picked up the phone and said, "Lao Zhang, this is me..."
Before he could finish, Zhang Long on the other end of the phone said anxiously: "Tongwei, where are you? I'm dying in the hospital, come quickly!"
When Qi Tongwei heard this, his face changed drastically and he shouted to Cuicui, "Cuicui, stop it, Zhang Long is in trouble!"
Cuicui was stunned for a moment, but quickly said, "I don't care, you must give me an explanation today."
Qi Tongwei was furious: "Cuicui, human life is at stake. If you continue to act unreasonably like this, it will be too much!"
After saying that, he pushed Cuicui away and ran towards the hospital.
Cuicui chased after him and shouted, "Qi Tongwei, come back here!"
Qi Tongwei ran all the way, his heart full of worry about Zhang Long.
As he ran, he wondered what had happened to Zhang Long. Was it because he had failed to handle his relationship with Cuicui properly that he had done something stupid?
When he arrived at the hospital, Qi Tongwei saw Zhang Long lying on the hospital bed with a pale face.
He quickly asked the doctor: "Doctor, how is he?"
The doctor said: "The patient was too emotional, which caused his blood pressure to rise, leading to some complications. His current condition is not stable."
Qi Tongwei looked at Zhang Long, his heart filled with guilt.
He sat down beside the bed, held Zhang Long's hand and said, "Old Zhang, please don't scare me. It's all my fault. I didn't handle the matter well."
Zhang Long said weakly: "Tongwei, I don't blame you, it's just that I'm too persistent."
At this moment, Cuicui also rushed to the hospital.
When she saw Zhang Long lying on the hospital bed, she was stunned.
Qi Tongwei stood up and said to Cuicui, "Cuicui, look at what has happened to Zhang Long because of our incident."
Cuicui lowered her head and whispered, "I...I didn't know it would be like this."
Qi Tongwei sighed and said, "Cuicui, Zhang Long really likes you. He is willing to sacrifice his life for you. Can't you think about it carefully?"
Cuicui walked to the bedside and looked at Zhang Long with a hint of guilt in her eyes.
When Qi Tongwei saw the guilt in Cuicui's eyes, he felt a little relieved and thought that things might be turning around.
However, what happened next stunned him.
When Zhang Long saw Cuicui coming towards him, he couldn't help but reach out his hand and wanted to touch Cuicui's face.
Unexpectedly, Cuicui knocked his arm off on the spot and said angrily: "You are disrespectful to your elders. I came here just to see that you are not in good health, not because I think you are good. I don't want to have any contact with you, and I don't want to have any intersection with you again!"
After listening to this, the hint of expectation that had just appeared on Zhang Long's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by deep sadness.
His lips trembled as he said, "Cui Cui, all I did was to attract your attention and let you see my sincerity, but I didn't expect this to be the result."
Qi Tongwei quickly stepped forward and said, "Cuicui, don't say that. Zhang Long really loves you sincerely."
Cuicui turned her head and looked at Qi Tongwei, saying, "Brother Qi, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I really don't have that kind of feeling towards him. His persistence will only make me more disgusted."
Zhang Long closed his eyes in despair, tears falling from the corners of his eyes: "I was wrong, I was wishful thinking, thinking that as long as I was sincere, I would get your response."
Qi Tongwei felt bad seeing Zhang Long so sad: "Old Zhang, don't be discouraged. Maybe Cuicui just can't accept it for the time being."
Cuicui said firmly: "Brother Qi, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I have thought it through clearly."
After saying that, Cuicui turned around and was about to leave the ward.
Qi Tongwei hurriedly called her: "Cuicui, even if you don't accept Zhang Long, don't be so heartless. He is still sick now."
Cui Cui stopped and was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I will try not to provoke him anymore, but I won't change my mind either."
Qi Tongwei nodded helplessly, looked at Cuicui's back as she left, and sighed deeply.
Zhang Long was crying silently on the hospital bed. Qi Tongwei comforted him, "Don't be too sad, Lao Zhang. You can't force feelings."
Zhang Long said in a hoarse voice: "Tongwei, am I really that annoying? Why is Cuicui so heartless to me?"
Qi Tongwei patted his shoulder and said, "It's not your problem. It's just that Cuicui hasn't seen your good side yet. You should get well first, and we can talk about the future later."
However, Zhang Long insisted on his own way and did not listen to Qi Tongwei at all.
In his heart, he was certain of his own thoughts and felt that Qi Tongwei's comfort was just perfunctory.
At this moment, Zhang Long had fallen into a paranoid state, and his eyes revealed a hint of doubt and unwillingness.
Zhang Long thought to himself: "Why does Qi Tongwei always speak for Cuicui? Is there some kind of relationship between them? No, I must find out." From that moment on, Zhang Long decided to secretly investigate Qi Tongwei.
After Zhang Long was discharged from the hospital, he pretended to have let go of his feelings for Cuicui and returned to his normal life.
But in fact, he secretly followed Qi Tongwei, checked his whereabouts, and secretly checked Qi Tongwei's call records.
One day, Qi Tongwei and Cuicui met by chance on the street and simply greeted each other.
