I suddenly pushed him away and quickened my pace.
Li Dawei caught up with me, gripping my arm tightly. "Xinran, give me one more chance. I promise I won't do it again."
"Let go!" I glared at him, my eyes icy. "Li Dawei, from now on, get out of my sight."
Li Dawei shuddered and slowly released his grip. I shot him a glare before turning away.
When I got home, my mom was sitting on the couch watching TV.
As soon as she saw me, she stood up. "Xinran, where have you been? You didn't answer your phone."
"I went out to take care of some things." I changed my shoes and walked into my bedroom, shutting the door behind me. I collapsed onto the bed and cried loudly.
My mom knocked on the door. "Xinran, what's wrong? Don't scare your mom like this."
I cried for a long time, only getting up to wash my face when it was quiet outside the door.
Looking at my swollen red eyes in the mirror, I took a deep breath and dialed the director's number.
"Hello, Xinran, what is it?"
"Director, I need to take a half-month leave."
"Another leave?" The director sighed. "You’re taking leave every few days; how is the hospital supposed to function?"
"I have urgent matters," I gritted my teeth. "Director, please let me take this half-month off."
"Alright then." The director hesitated for a moment. "Just hand over your current work to Xiao Zhang."
"Okay, thank you, Director." After hanging up, I exhaled and lay back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
On the way home, my phone kept buzzing.
I guessed that news had spread online.
When I opened my phone, sure enough, I saw that netizens were calling me and Yu Shenglin the 'Cuckold Duo.'
Some even started shipping our duo.
"This duo has the potential to go viral."
"This sister is amazing; she strikes hard and directly incapacitated the man's tools for crime."
"This sister has a grand vision, straightforward and decisive, never dragging her feet."
"This sister is on the path to becoming a millionaire; I can't wait to see what happens."
I felt a headache coming on.
Why are so many people concerned about my affairs?
Don't they have jobs?
Just then, my mom called.
I quickly answered, "Hello, Mom."
"Xinran, you've gotten yourself into big trouble!" My mom's voice trembled. "Where are you? Hurry back!"
"I'm on my way home. What's wrong?"
"How can you even ask that?" My mom's voice choked with emotion. "You've caused such a huge mess; how am I supposed to face your dad?"
"What mess?"
"Stop playing dumb!" My mom sniffled. "Your incident with Li Dawei is all over the news. Do you know that now all the neighbors know?"
"So what?" I paused for a moment. "Mom, what exactly do you want to say?"
"You need to go to the hospital and apologize to Li Dawei. Then this matter will be over."
"Apologize?" I frowned. "Mom, why should I apologize?"
"You've beaten him up so badly, and you still won't apologize?" My mom's voice rose. "Let me tell you, Li Dawei's parents are here at the hospital. You need to go over there and apologize so this can all be forgotten, and you two can still get married."
"What?" I nearly spat blood. "Mom, are you saying that I still have to marry Li Dawei?"
"What will happen if I don't get married?" My mom started crying.
"Now everyone knows you hit him; who would dare to want you in the future?"
"Mom, I really don't like what you're saying." I took a deep breath. "What's wrong with me? It's not like I'm going to be single forever. Why should I have to rush into marriage just because Li Dawei cheated?"
