When Yang Qiaoqiao said those three words, she was surprised herself.

In her past life, she watched melodramatic prime-time TV dramas and always thought that only a man's mistress would use such a sickeningly sweet tone to say those kinds of things to him.

Unexpectedly, just now, after being teased by the man, those three words just slipped out of her mouth uncontrollably.

Before she could feel shy any longer, the man had already picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.

The man kept his word; if he said he would only take a shower, he really did.

This was the most comfortable shower she had taken since the accident.

While she was taking a bath, the man also gave her a massage.

Although it was disguised as a massage but actually used to grope her, it did make her feel very relaxed, both physically and mentally.

She had been under too much stress, both mentally and physically, and once she relaxed, she fell asleep right there in the bathtub.

In a daze, she felt as if her body was suspended in mid-air, and she knew that the man was carrying her back to bed.

I just found a comfortable position and fell asleep.

The next morning, when she woke up, the man was no longer beside her.

She knew that although the situation had eased slightly, it was not completely resolved, and the man was still very busy.

So I didn't think much of it.

After having breakfast as usual, she prepared to return to Yun County.

Huo Beixiao said that the matter of the dead and injured had been dealt with, and the compensation matters had been settled.

At this point, there should be no danger left.

Whether as a neighbor or as the owner of the cement factory, she should have, both morally and logically, gone to the homes of the deceased at the cement factory to offer condolences and to visit the injured.

Just as she was about to leave, Tong Xuejiao chased after her, "Qiaoqiao, where are you going?"

After hearing Yang Qiaoqiao say that she was going back to Yun County.

Tong Xuejiao replied without hesitation, "I'll go with you."
