Chapter 83 You obviously care.
I looked at Shen Xiuting in shock for a moment, then reacted.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I not be my father's daughter?"
"Shen Xiuting, let me tell you, I don't care about the five million at all. Don't make up excuses to prevent me from asking for it."
I stared at her coldly, wanting to tear her mouth apart.
"I'm not kidding. You're not Lao Yu's daughter. You were adopted. I even saw the adoption certificate Lao Yu left behind."
I asked her to give me the proof right now, otherwise she would be lying to me.
Shen Xiuting said that she didn’t have it now and she had to go home to get it.
"Okay, I'll go home with you to get it."
Shen Xiuting originally agreed, but then seemed to think of something and told me to wait here.
I looked at her sarcastically and snorted.
"Shen Xiuting, you want to trick me? Please find a good excuse. You have the nerve to make up such a reason."
"I remember the day my father was buried. You burned everything related to my father at night and even sold the house to someone else. How could there be anything left of my father? Are you planning to make a fake certificate for me in the store?" His voice couldn't help but get louder.
In my opinion, she just thought that I was thinking about her five million, and she made up a reason to stop me from thinking about the insurance money.
I have to say, this reason is really well-made. When Shen Xiuting said this, I was really stunned. I thought I was not my father's daughter.
But then I realized, if I wasn't, why was my dad so good to me? He gave me almost all his love.
How could I possibly believe the lies of a villain like Shen Xiuting?
Shen Xiuting's eyes flashed with panic, and she said that she had really seen the adoption certificate before.
"And what about the proof?"
"It's just that I seem to have really burned it."
A trace of annoyance flashed across Shen Xiuting's eyes, and she looked up at me.
"That proves that I really saw it, and I did burn it accidentally."
"You are really not Lao Yu's daughter. Just tell me, why would I lie to you about this?" She looked at me.
I glanced at her.
"You think I don't know your little tricks? You're using this to trick me, just to prevent me from getting my father's property?"
"I don't want you to break up, but you really don't..."
My face turned cold, and I took a step forward, putting my hands on her waist, with fire in my eyes.
"Shen Xiuting, I'm warning you, if you say anything nonsense again, I will kill you."
Shen Xiuting saw the knife in my hand and quickly took two steps back.
"Yu Xiaowan, what I said is true. If you don't believe me, go ask Old Yu's former neighbors. They all know about this."
"They told me that Lao Yu and I had never been married before we started a family. Tell me, how could we have a biological child if we were not married?" Shen Xiuting asked me.
Shen Xiuting glanced around and saw passers-by. She seemed no longer afraid of the knife in my hand and snorted softly.
"Yu Xiaowan, let me ask you, do you know what your mother looks like?"
I looked up and gave her a blank look, saying that my mother died early, so how would I know what she looked like? Isn't this a very normal thing?
Shen Xiuting was speechless for a moment.
"Okay, so it's normal not to know what your mother looks like? Then you should at least know your mother's name, right?"
I was stunned. It seemed that I had never asked my father this question before. I only asked my father what my mother looked like when I was young. He said she was pretty. Later, when I grew up, I didn’t want to mention my mother because I was afraid that my father would be sad. I also got used to life without motherly love.
"Every time I asked Old Yu what his deceased wife's name was, he would hesitate to answer. I had suspected it before, and it was all my fault. Last time, you were so angry that you burned all of Old Yu's things and didn't keep the proof."
"Yu Xiaowan, it's up to you whether you believe it or not."
"But I also tell you, next time you say something bad to me, don't blame me. I won't be polite to you." She pointed at me and warned.
I looked at her coldly and took two steps forward.
She quickly took two steps back, turned around and ran away, cursing at me as she ran, calling me a good-for-nothing.
I stood there and watched Shen Xiuting leave.
"I won't believe your nonsense."
I turned around, took two steps, and stopped again.
What if what she said is true?
"Should I ask Aunt Zhao and the others now? What if they've all been bribed by Shen Xiuting?"
My father's neighbors knew something about it. For example, Aunt Zhao, I dare say, she deliberately sold this news to Shen Xiuting. If she really wanted to help me conceal it, how could she easily let the cat out of the bag in front of Shen Xiuting.
Once a person has doubts in his mind, he will think about how to solve them.
I remembered that there was a straightforward man named Grandpa Su in the building where my father used to live. Should I ask him?
I think Shen Xiuting should have gone to complain to Tian Rong at this moment. I will make a decision after I know about their conversation.
I casually went into a nearby dessert shop, ordered a dessert, and sent a voice message to Liu Ma, saying that I would be home later and asked her and Han Liang to eat first.
Soon, Aunt Liu replied to my message and said that she would put the food in the refrigerator later. If I came back late, I could just take it to the kitchen and heat it up.
I ate dessert while holding my phone, watching videos, and waiting for Shen Xiuting to come home.
After a while, Shen Xiuting appeared in the video.
As soon as Shen Xiuting entered the room, Tian Rong asked her what made her so flustered.
"Oh, I'm so angry. Let me tell you, it was Yu Xiaowan who asked Xiu'er to take me to gamble last time. This little bitch is getting more and more powerful." Shen Xiuting said breathlessly.
"Is it really Yu Xiaowan?" Tian Rong asked hurriedly.
"Yes, it was Xiu'er and her mother who came to tell me. They said that Yu Xiaowan threatened Xiu'er and asked her to take me there. Later, Xiu'er was very unhappy about this matter, so she told her mother about it. Zhao Qin said that I had been neighbors with them for more than ten years and I was nice to them, so she took the initiative to bring Xiu'er to tell me about this matter."
In fact, I knew Xiu'er wasn't a good person before, and I expected her to go back on her word. I just didn't expect her to do so so quickly.
"I'm so pissed off. When Xiu'er took me there, I felt something was fishy. How could I be so lucky to win hundreds of thousands of dollars in one go? I didn't expect it was Yu Xiaowan's doing."
Tian Rong rolled her eyes at Shen Xiuting and asked why they still went since they knew there was a ghost.
"If you had won over a hundred thousand and not gone again, you wouldn't have lost six hundred thousand. It's all because of your greed. Otherwise, how could you have been so easily fooled?"
Shen Xiuting looked embarrassed and said nothing.
"Also, Zhao Qin and her daughter aren't good people. From now on, don't have anything to do with them. I think that bitch Yu Xiaowan bribed Xiu'er, and then the two of them thought it was easy money, so they came to you and told the truth. They just want more money, and then go to Yu Xiaowan again, and the cycle continues."
Tian Rong asked Shen Xiuting if she had given them money?
"No, I was so angry when I heard that that I immediately rushed out to settle the score with Yu Xiaowan."
I smiled faintly. No wonder Xiu'er called me immediately to inform me. It turned out that the mother and daughter had miscalculated. They thought Shen Xiuting would thank them and give them money, but Shen Xiuting didn't give them a penny. So Xiu'er thought it would be better to get the money from me, so she called me in time and lied that it was Aunt Zhao who accidentally let the secret slip.
What a thoughtful thought! Aunt Zhao and her daughter, and Shen Xiuting and her daughter, are exactly the same.
"Have you looked for Yu Xiaowan?" Tian Rong asked with a frown.
"Mom, didn't I tell you last time that we can't act rashly these days? Even if you know that it was Yu Xiaowan who did it, you can't look for her." Tian Rong hurriedly looked at Shen Xiuting.
"I was so angry that I rushed out to find her. My daughter, no one can swallow this. Six hundred thousand yuan. It was because of this bitch that I lost a full six hundred thousand yuan. When I think of that money, my heart aches. Don't you want to settle the score with her?" Shen Xiuting covered her heart.
"I want to, too. But every time I look for her, I don't manage to find her, and instead I end up bringing bad luck upon myself. I wish I could skin her alive."
"But Nianhao is right, I have to endure it."
Tian Rong reached out and gently stroked her lower abdomen.
"After I give birth to this child, I will deal with Yu Xiaowan."
Tian Rong looked up at Shen Xiuting.
"Mom, just bear with the little bitch who bullied you. Now is not the time to deal with her."
Shen Xiuting glanced at Tian Rong, feeling very unwilling, but nodded in agreement.
"Let that little bitch have some fun for a while."
"By the way, I told you today that Yu Xiaowan is not Old Yu's daughter."
"What? Mom, didn't I tell you not to tell this?" Tian Rong looked at Shen Xiuting anxiously.
There was more regret in Shen Xiutingting's eyes.
"I was so angry at the time. This little bitch just wasn't willing to accept that we didn't share Old Yu's property with her. I thought about telling her about this. She knew she wasn't Old Yu's daughter, and even if we sued her, she wouldn't be able to take the insurance money away."
"Mom, I think you're getting old and confused. Although Yu Xiaowan is not his biological daughter, she was indeed adopted by the relevant departments. If she wants to fight for it, she can still get a share."
Shen Xiuting stamped her feet, looking regretful, and said that if she had known this would happen, she would not have said it.
"What did Yu Xiaowan say?" Tian Rong asked again.
"Luckily, that little bitch didn't believe me at all. She said I burned all of Old Yu's things. Even if she produced proof now, it would be a fake proof."
Tian Rong glanced at Shen Xiuting, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sat on the chair.
"Mom, it's a good thing Yu Xiaowan didn't believe it. If she really did, what if she went to find her biological parents, and her biological parents were rich? Then we would never be able to defeat her."
"Daughter, I'm afraid you're worrying too much. I saw the adoption certificate before, and that little bitch was from an orphanage. She can abandon a child in an orphanage, so she may not have a good background."
Tian Rong sat on the chair and started cracking melon seeds, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
"I don't have a good background, and I don't want Yu Xiaowan to be able to find her biological parents. She can't have what I don't have."
I collapsed on the sofa, tears streaming down my face. It turned out that what Shen Xiuting said was true. I was not my father's daughter, but a child abandoned in an orphanage.
Why is this happening? Why is this happening? My heart aches and I feel very sad. I am not sad because my father hid this matter, but I am sad because I am not his biological daughter.
Why did God do this to me? First, he made me lose my dad, and now he tells me this news. It really is...
After feeling upset for a while, I still wanted to find Grandpa Su to confirm the news.
I took out my cell phone and called Grandpa Su.
"It's Xiaowan, why did you have time to call me?"
"Grandpa Su, some people say that I am not my father's daughter." I whispered.
"Who told you this?" Grandpa Su asked me quickly.
"My stepmother, Shen Xiuting, said she had seen the adoption certificate."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and Grandpa Su sighed.
"Since she has said it, I guess you already have your suspicions. Even if I didn't tell you, you would have investigated, right?"
I didn't say anything.
"I won't hide it from you. You are indeed not Old Yu's daughter."
Even though I knew the truth and was mentally prepared, I still felt a little sad when Grandpa Su told it to others.
"When your father was young, his family wasn't very poor, but he was too honest and didn't like to talk much. The elders took him on blind dates, but the other parties thought your father was too dull, so he didn't get married until he was 30. Later, your father got used to it and didn't want to look for anyone anymore."
"But one day, he suddenly brought home a little girl, about three years old, saying he had adopted her from an orphanage and had even completed the adoption procedures."
"I only remember that when you first came here, you were a little timid and didn't like talking to others, so your dad spent money to buy you lots of beautiful clothes and toys. Later, you gradually became more cheerful, and everyone in the neighborhood liked you very much. At that time, you were also obedient. Your dad had to work during the day, so you stayed home alone. You started cooking for yourself at the age of six. Later, we felt that it was too hard for you, so we discussed it with your dad and asked him to find you a stepmother. At first, he disagreed, saying that he was afraid that your stepmother would beat and scold you when he was not home."
"Then you were ten years old and grown up. Your father felt that it was not convenient for him to take care of you, so he started going on blind dates and soon he and Shen Xiuting started a family."
"Actually, your father also knows that Shen Xiuting is not very kind to you. In order to make her treat you better, he gave Shen Xiuting his bank card and other things. He only had one request: that Shen Xiuting treat you better."
At that time, although Shen Xiuting hated me, she didn't hit me or scold me. I guess it was because my father gave her money.
"I only know that your father adopted you from Qingshan Orphanage. I don't have any other clues. I guess even if your father is alive, he doesn't know who your parents are."
"Grandpa Su, I don't plan to look for my biological parents. I just want to figure this out."
Just like Shen Xiuting said, how could they be good parents if they could abandon me in an orphanage? And how could they be easy to find? In my eyes, my father is my biological father. After thinking about it, even if I am not my father's biological daughter, so what? I still want to avenge my father.
"Yeah, that's good."
"Then Grandpa Su, I'm going to hang up first. I'll come see you when I'm free."
Grandpa Su nodded and said yes.
After hanging up the phone, I looked out the window and breathed a sigh of relief.
I looked down at the dessert and was about to pay and leave when someone called me.
I looked up and saw Cai Qing and Jiang Ruohe, they were going upstairs together.
Jiang Ruohe's face darkened when he saw me.
I smiled at Cai Qing and ignored Jiang Ruohe.
Soon the waiter came over and Cai Qing ordered two desserts.
"Let's sit here with Xiaowan." Cai Qing looked at Jiang Ruohe.
I guess Jiang Ruohe would definitely not agree at this time, and would even say that looking at me would definitely affect his appetite.
"If you like to sit here, just sit here." Jiang Ruohe smiled at Cai Qing, and the two of them sat opposite me.
I was shocked.
"Caiqing, this tastes delicious."
After the dessert came, Jiang Ruohe fed Caiqing a bite, and Caiqing looked at me shyly.
I felt a little uncomfortable inside when my ex-husband showed off his love with his new girlfriend in front of me, but there was no emotion on his face.
Somehow, I suddenly remembered what Han Liang said to me this morning.
Because he listened to what Yan Yun said last night and didn't want to let his heart waver anymore, he went to find Han Liang in the morning and said that he wanted to forget Jiang Ruohe.
Han Liang said some words to enlighten me, but I only remember his last sentence. He said, sometimes, what we see with our eyes is not necessarily true. Some people and some things, we have to look at them with our hearts.
I looked up and glanced at Jiang Ruohe. He was wiping Cai Qing's lips with a tissue. He looked so gentle, which made me a little envious.
A nameless anger surged in my heart, and I wanted to leave immediately, but I still suppressed the anger.
What Han Liang said makes sense. Jiang Ruohe and Cai Qing always show their affection in front of me. Doesn't it seem a bit too deliberate?
Last night at the villa, Jiang Yichen told me that Caiqing had mentioned to her that Jiang Ruohe had not confessed his feelings to Caiqing, and their relationship was still vague. Since it was not confirmed, why did they pretend to be so affectionate in front of me?
Also, if he really hated me for hiding the fact about the child, he wouldn't have rushed to the small hotel when Liu Xu kidnapped me.
He would not have injured Liu Xu when Liu Xu wanted to shoot me. If he really hated me, wouldn't it be better to let Liu Xu kill me?
I really don't believe it. He rushed to that small hotel just because I saved his life in Qingcheng.
I looked at Jiang Ruohe suspiciously, wondering if this guy was pretending.
I thought of Yan Yun's words last night. Sometimes, knowing the truth puts you in a dilemma and makes your heart waver.
There was a trace of struggle in my eyes. I had clearly suspected Jiang Ruohe, but now, I didn't dare to reveal the truth. I was afraid that if it turned out as I guessed, I would not know what choice I would make.
But whether I know the truth or ignore the truth, I feel bad. Why don’t I choose the former?
"Eat more." Jiang Ruohe smiled at Cai Qing, then picked up his milk tea and started drinking it.
I glanced at Jiang Ruohe. If I wanted to know whether my guess was right, I would just give it a try and I would know.
Just at this moment, my cell phone rang. It was Yang Ru calling.
The call came at the perfect time, and I picked it up with some excitement.
"Yang Ru, have you bought my things?"
On the other end of the phone, Yang Ru was a little confused and asked me something.
"Sixth sense."
Across from me, Jiang Ruohe suddenly choked and quickly covered his mouth with a tissue, coughing twice. "I've bought it. Could you please bring it to me? Yes, I'm going to his house tonight. We've already made an appointment. He's preparing a candlelight dinner for me right now. I'll have some dessert and then go find him. Yeah. I'll send you the location on WeChat. Come quickly." I feigned shyness.
"Xiao Wan, what did you say?"
Before Yang Ru could react, I hung up the phone.
I opened WeChat, sent my location to Yang Ru, typed the word "please", and sent it.
Yang Ru asked me what was going on.
"I'll give you five minutes to come over. I can't wait any longer."
I muttered these words, but what I typed was, Jiang Ruohe and Caiqing were showing off their affection in front of me, his ex-wife. Bullying me is not worth it.
Yang Ru immediately sent me a voice message and said she would send it to me right away.
I glanced at Jiang Ruohe from the corner of my eye. He had a gloomy face and clenched his milk tea cup. I happily put my phone into my bag and lowered my head to eat the dessert quietly.
"Xiaowan." Caiqing called me.
I looked up at her and asked her what was wrong?
"It seems like you and Xiao Shi haven't been dating for very long?"
I nodded and said we didn’t talk for long.
"But I feel that he is very good to me, and I find that I like him more and more. I plan to get married after dating for another half a year." I said with a smile.
I looked up at Jiang Ruohe. When Jiang Ruohe saw me like that, his face immediately regained its composure and he looked at me coldly.
"I'm about to remarry, so you should also work hard. When I get married, I will definitely send a wedding invitation to you, my ex-husband."
Jiang Ruohe's mouth twitched.
"Don't bother with that," he said coldly, holding Cai Qing in his arms.
"We will be there soon too."
Cai Qing looked at Jiang Ruohe in shock, with a strange look in her eyes.
After a while, Yang Ruzhen came over. When she saw Jiang Ruohe and Cai Qing sitting opposite me, she rolled her eyes at Jiang Ruohe and sat down next to me with a smile.
I asked the waiter to order another dessert.
Yang Ru opened her bag and took out a large box of the sixth one, deliberately holding it high so that the two people opposite could see it clearly.
Cai Qing was a little shy and looked away, while Jiang Ruohe stared at the thing.
I didn't expect Yang Ru to buy such a big box and say so much.
Yang Ru stuffed it into my bag with a sly smile.
"Don't worry, Xiao has good stamina and can use it up."
With a "bang", Yang Ru and I were both startled. We turned around and saw that the milk tea cup in Jiang Ruohe's hand was broken, his face was very dark, and he gave me a cold look.
"Disgusting."
"Caiqing, let's eat somewhere else."
Jiang Ruohe stood up and took Cai Qing to the service desk to pay the bill, then left.
I looked at the milk tea cup on the table that he had crushed, and a smile flashed across my eyes.
Jiang Ruohe, you obviously care about me, why did you lie to me?
"Xiao Wan. Is your ex-husband a little crazy? It was obviously him who brought his new love to cause trouble first." Yang Ru looked at me.
I said, yes, a little bit.
At this time, the waiter brought the dessert and Yang Ru asked the waiter to pack it up for her to take away.
"Where are you going?" I looked up at her in confusion.
"Yan Yun got off work and asked me to go to the movies. He also told me about his parents' preferences so that I could learn more about them. Next week, I have to pretend to be his girlfriend and go back with him."
"There are still more than 20 days before the New Year. Why are you going back so early?" I asked Yang Ru in confusion.
"He took two days off and took me back to reassure his parents. He didn't go back during the Chinese New Year, saying there was a major case that hadn't been solved."
Yang Ru looked at the time and said that Yan Yun was already waiting for her at the entrance of the cinema.
I nodded and told Yang Ru to leave quickly.
Yang Ru was about to leave with the packed desserts, but after walking a few steps, she turned back.
"Xiao Wan, let me ask you a gossip question. Are you really going to see Mr. Xiao tonight?"
I looked out the window, the smile in my eyes deepened, and I said I was really going.
Yang Ru smiled and told me to take care of my health and not to be unable to get out of bed.
I checked out and left the dessert shop. It was already getting dark. I checked the time. It was seven in the evening. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a car not far away. I hailed a taxi and even gave it Xiao Shi's address.
Through the rearview mirror, I looked at the small car behind me, and Jiang Ruohe was really following me.
I took out a lipstick from my bag and applied it to my lips in front of the rearview mirror. Suddenly, there was a bang and my head hit the windshield. When I looked at my face again, the lipstick was all over my face.
I glared at the car behind me, opened the door, got out, and walked to Jiang Ruohe's car.
Jiang Ruohe rolled down the car window, looked at my face, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Sorry, I was driving too fast and rear-ended someone."
I glared at him. This guy obviously did it on purpose.
Jiang Ruohe opened the car door and got out. He said sorry to the taxi driver, gave him a business card, and told the driver to go and repair the car first. He would pay for the repair costs and lost work time.
The driver took the business card and drove away.
Jiang Ruohe turned around and walked to the front of the car and glanced at me.
"This lipstick is so beautiful."
I rolled my eyes at Jiang Ruohe, wiped the lipstick off my face, and walked to the side of the road to hail a taxi. However, after waiting for ten minutes, the road was like a strange place, with no taxi passing by.
Jiang Ruohe didn't leave. Instead, he sat in the car and looked at me with a smile on his face.
I walked to Jiang Ruohe's car, opened the door and got in.
"What do you want to do?" He looked at me.
"Of course I asked you to take me to Xiao Shi's house. We had an appointment tonight, and it's all your fault for rear-ending the car and preventing me from getting a ride, so you have to take responsibility."
Jiang Ruohe's face turned cold.
"Yu Xiaowan, are you really going to Xiao Shi's place?"
I'm serious, absolutely serious.
Jiang Ruohe and I just stared at each other.
Jiang Ruohe withdrew his gaze, said okay, and started the car.
I looked out the window, and the smile in my eyes deepened. I dare say that Jiang Ruohe will never send me to Xiao Shi.
Anyway, I was just trying to piss him off, so I didn't call Xiao Shi. If I went there rashly, I wouldn't know what to say.
"By the way, didn't you go somewhere else to eat with Caiqing half an hour ago? Why are you alone now?" I turned to look at Jiang Ruohe.
"Cai Qing left first because of something."
I didn't say anything else and the car fell into silence.
Suddenly, heavy snow began to fall, and the snowflakes landed on my face, feeling a little cold.
I turned to look at Jiang Ruohe.
"Jiang Ruohe, I want to ask you a question?"
Jiang Ruohe said nothing.
"Do you still have me in your heart?"
Jiang Ruohe suddenly slammed on the brakes. Fortunately, this time, I behaved well and fastened my seat belt.
He turned and looked at me.
"Is it that important?"
"Of course, I want to know." I looked at Jiang Ruohe seriously.
I stared at Jiang Ruohe, eager to get the answer from his eyes, but there was no emotion in Jiang Ruohe's eyes.
"Yu Xiaowan, don't be so sentimental. I no longer have you in my heart."
"I don't believe it. I'm not in your heart. Why did you crush the milk tea cup just now in the dessert shop?"
“The quality is not good.”
I snorted coldly.
"Then why are you following me?"
"Yu Xiaowan, you're overthinking it. This is the way I go home." Jiang Ruohe's eyes showed some sarcasm.
"Jiang Ruohe, I'll ask you one last time, do you have me in your heart?" At that moment, I was really anxious.
I clearly feel that he has feelings for me, but why doesn't he admit it?
"Really not."
"Yu Xiaowan, you know that I liked Huang Minwei before, but I developed a little affection for you because you saved me in Qingcheng. However, you rejected me. Later, you concealed the fact that you were pregnant, and that little affection for me completely disappeared." Jiang Ruohe looked at me and said.
"I'll take you to Xiao Shi." He said this without waiting for me to say anything.
Jiang Ruohe started the car again, and I just looked at him quietly. Neither of us spoke. Ten minutes later, Jiang Ruohe's car really stopped in front of Xiao Shi's house.
"We're here." Jiang Ruohe said lightly.
I opened the car door and got out. The car behind me whooshed away.
I laughed so hard that tears came down.
I don’t know how long I stood there. When I was about to leave, Xiao Shi suddenly opened the door.
"Mr. Xiao, don't worry. I have stopped her injuries. She will be fine."
There was another man coming out with Xiao Shi. The man was carrying a medicine box and should be a private doctor. When Xiao Shi saw me in the yard, he was stunned for a moment.
When the private doctor saw me, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"Then Mr. Xiao, I'm leaving first."
After the private doctor drove away, Xiao Shi walked up to me and looked at me in surprise.
"Xiao Wan, why are you here?"
"Oh, I, I have something to ask you..."
I have thought it through clearly. Love and gratitude cannot be confused.
Regardless of whether Jiang Ruohe has me in his heart or not, I have to make it clear to Xiao Shi.
If this continues, even if I marry Xiao Shi, I will never be happy in my life. It will hurt both me and Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi has been so good to me, I shouldn't hurt him anymore.
"I have something to tell you." I mustered up the courage to look at Xiao Shi.
“We, we…”
Before she could even utter the word "break up", her eyes went dark and she fell on Xiao Shi.
When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed, and Xiao Shi was sitting beside me, looking at me worriedly.
"Luckily, the doctor didn't go far. You know, your fever was almost 40 degrees. I was so worried."
Xiao Shi said that he gave me antipyretics while I was unconscious.
Seeing that I woke up, he hurriedly took a thermometer to take my temperature. I looked at Xiao Shi quietly.
"Fortunately, I've retreated for now."
He handed me a glass of boiled water and asked me to drink a few sips first. Then he took my hand.
"You're already sick, and you still come here? Is there something important you want to tell me?"
I looked at Xiao Shi, a complicated expression flashed across my eyes, and for a moment I really couldn't bear to say it out loud.
Yan Yun is right. I am such an indecisive person. Faced with Xiao Shi’s kindness, if I say we break up, he will definitely be very sad.
Just when I was about to say something, Xiao Shi suddenly kissed my lips, which surprised me.
"I know what you are thinking, but you are sick now and it is not suitable for you to do such a thing." Xiao Shi let go of me and smiled at me.
I was completely confused, not understanding why Xiao Shi said that. Xiao Shi took my hand.
"I really didn't expect you to buy that thing. You must be very embarrassed. This is actually a matter for us men..."
The box in my bag...
My face flushed instantly. At that moment, I really wanted to find a hole to crawl into. I didn't know what to say for a moment.
"I have to go back." I hurriedly lifted the quilt and tried to get out of bed.
If I tell him I want to break up now, I'm afraid Xiao Shi won't believe it even if he is beaten to death. Right now, the best thing to do is to escape.
"It's already ten o'clock. Your nanny just called you and I told her that you'll be staying at my place tonight."
I was stunned for a few seconds. Xiao Shi took my hand.
"Xiao Wan, don't worry, I'll sleep in the guest room tonight."
This time, there is really no way to escape.
"I'm a little worried that you might have a recurring fever. You're here with me, and I'll take good care of you."
"I heard from Aunt Liu that you haven't had dinner yet. You should rest for a while. I'll go make you some food."
Xiao Shi stood up, went out and closed the door.
After Xiao Shi left, I covered my forehead with my hand. I felt like I had shot myself in the foot. Jiang Ruohe hadn't figured it out, but instead had gotten himself into this situation.
"What on earth should I do?"
I was very annoyed. At this moment, the cell phone on the bedside table rang. I turned around and saw that it was Xiao Shi's cell phone on the bedside table.
I glanced down and saw that it was Karen calling.
