Chapter 364 I love you, please don't leave me?
Qiao's mother suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.
A farce ended in such a shocking way when lives were in danger.
The door to the hospital's emergency room was tightly closed.
Qiao Xingjia held the crying-sleepy little Xingchen and sat blankly on a chair by the corridor, waiting.
Shen Qingshu sat beside her, silently keeping her company.
The experts Qin Yancheng brought in are doing their best to save the patient inside.
Qiao's father and Qin Yancheng waited outside the emergency room.
In the distance, Fu Siyan was on the phone.
The Civil Affairs Bureau made such a mess of things that someone secretly recorded a video and posted it online.
It's very popular.
Fu Siyan told Shao Qing to remove those videos, no matter how much it cost, not a single one could be left.
Qiao Xingjia and Qin Yancheng weren't public figures to begin with, so it should have been easy for them to get rid of the scandal.
But it seems like someone is pulling the strings behind the scenes.
Fu Siyan instructed Shao Qing to investigate the matter as soon as possible.
He then hung up the phone and walked over to Shen Qingshu.
“Ah Shu.”
Shen Qingshu looked up at him.
Fu Siyan's voice was low and deep. "I have to leave first to take care of some things."
Shen Qingshu nodded.
Fu Siyan turned and left in a hurry.
...
About half an hour later, the door to the emergency room opened.
Qin Yancheng immediately followed up, "Director Wang, how is my mother-in-law?"
Director Wang took off his mask.
He was an authoritative expert, but at this moment his face was also solemn. "His life has been saved, but he is old and has lost a lot of blood. Even if he regains consciousness later, hemiplegia is inevitable."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Qiao staggered a few steps.
Qin Yancheng hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Mr. Qiao was filled with remorse, "It's all my fault. I knew her temper all along, it's all my fault..."
Qiao Xingjia stared blankly at her father.
After a long while, she murmured softly, "It's my fault, it's all my fault..."
Shen Qingshu held her hand, "Xingxing, don't say things like that."
Qiao Xingjia lowered her eyes and stared at the little star in her arms.
Little Xingchen slept soundly. He was too young to understand the joys and sorrows of adults. He only knew that his mother's embrace was warm, fragrant, and comforting.
...
Qiao's mother was transferred from the operating room to the ICU.
What follows is a long observation period.
When she will wake up depends entirely on Qiao's mother's own fate.
The sky gradually darkened.
Summer afternoon thunderstorms are common in the northern part of the city.
Little Xingchen woke up and saw that her mother was still there. The one-year-old child was very happy.
The little hand kept touching her mother's face.
But he didn't know why his mother's face was wet.
He got his hands wet and curiously put them in his mouth to taste them.
It tastes salty, and seems a little bitter too?
Shen Qingshu reached out and took Xiao Xingchen's hand out of his mouth, gently holding it in her hand. "Is Xiao Xingchen hungry?"
Little Xingchen looked at Shen Qingshu, "Mommy, Daddy... da da!"
The expression is not very clear.
But for Shen Qingshu, who has raised children, this is not something difficult to understand.
She got up and left the ward.
Qin Yancheng was talking with Qiao's father and the experts.
Seeing Shen Qingshu come out, Qin Yancheng stopped talking and asked her, "What's wrong?"
"Little Star is hungry."
Qin Yancheng paused, "I have baby formula in my office, I'll have someone..."
"I'll take care of it," Shen Qingshu said.
Qin Yancheng paused, then nodded, "Okay, thank you for your help."
Shen Qingshu turned and walked towards Qin Yancheng's office.
...
After preparing the formula, Shen Qingshu took the bottle and walked back.
Just then, my phone rang in my pocket.
Another unfamiliar number.
Shen Qingshu hesitated for a moment before answering, "Who is this?"
"It's me."
Qi Mingxuan.
Calmly and gently, she relaxed her furrowed brow.
“Fu Siyan just came to see me and he got really angry with me.”
Chen Qingshu was exhausted and didn't want to get entangled with Qi Mingxuan.
"I have no interest in what you two, husband and wife, are going through."
"But he did it for you!" Qi Mingxuan said provocatively. "Your best friend's scandals are all over the place. As the president of Awakening Media, didn't President Shen hear a thing?"
Chen Qingshu frowned slightly.
"Someone secretly filmed a video and uploaded it online. I happened to see it and thought it was quite interesting, so I spent some money to let the whole country watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, the response was quite good!"
"Qi Mingxuan!" Shen Qingshu gripped the baby bottle tightly. "Are you ever going to stop?"
"I just feel that my life is too boring, and I always need to find some excitement. How could someone like President Shen, who always has people protecting him, understand me?"
"Qi Mingxuan, if you are targeting me like this because of Fu Siyan, then I can tell you that Fu Siyan and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. Now he is at most the father of my two children."
"Hahahaha!" Qi Mingxuan suddenly burst into laughter, "Who said I did it for Fu Siyan?"
Shen Qingshu frowned, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "If it's not because of Fu Siyan, then you have other motives. Qi Mingxuan, you can say what you're after. Why drag innocent people into this?"
“Sure!” Qi Mingxuan said, “Then let’s meet. I prefer to negotiate face-to-face.”
"Okay, you choose a place."
...
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingshu received the address sent by Qi Mingxuan.
It's a bit far, located in a villa halfway up a mountain in the suburbs.
Calmly and gently, she relaxed her furrowed brow.
Qi Mingxuan invited her to go to such a far place...
For safety reasons, Shen Qingshu decided to have Tan Yiyi accompany her.
...
In the lounge, Shen Qingshu handed the milk powder to Xiaoxingchen.
Little Xingchen held the milk bottle and drank it 'glug glug'.
Qiao Xingjia held Xiao Xingchen in her arms, watching him drink milk, her expression dazed.
After seeing the experts off, Qiao's father and Qin Yancheng went into the lounge.
Mr. Qiao took Xiao Xingchen from Qiao Xingjia's arms, sighed, and gently rubbed her head. "I'll take Xiao Xingchen for a walk in the back garden. You and Yancheng can have a good talk."
Qiao Xingjia didn't say anything.
Mr. Qiao sighed, picked up his child, and went out.
Shen Qingshu also stood up and looked at Qin Yancheng with a serious expression: "Dr. Qin, Xingxing is not in good condition. You should have a good talk with her and not act impulsively."
Qin Yancheng nodded.
Shen Qingshu added, "I have some things to take care of. I'll come back to the hospital tonight."
"good."
...
The door to the lounge closed.
Qin Yancheng squatted down in front of Qiao Xingjia.
He held an ice pack wrapped in a towel and gently applied it to her swollen, red cheek.
It hurt, but Qiao Xingjia didn't flinch or dodge.
She was completely numb.
How did such a vibrant girl become like this?
Qin Yancheng looked on, his heart aching.
He knew that his own selfishness had led to the current situation.
"Xingxing, I'm sorry, I was bewitched. I know you and that person aren't in that kind of relationship, but I was just jealous when I saw you smiling so happily with him..."
Men's possessiveness is inherently flawed.
Qin Yancheng's journey from unrequited love to a whirlwind romance and marriage with Qiao Xingjia was so fast that he was constantly afraid that she would leave him after regaining her memories.
And now, their relationship is gradually heading towards the situation he feared...
"Star, I don't want to be separated from you. We've been so in love and sweet together for the past four years, haven't we?"
Qiao Xingjia looked at him.
Actually, it's not that she and Qin Yancheng don't love each other; it's just that one of them is too self-centered, and the other is too obsessed with being loved and valued.
The issue between them isn't whether they love each other or not.
It's a clash of personalities, a mismatch of values.
Qiao Xingjia looked at the man in front of her, who was kneeling on one knee with a humble posture, his eyes full of guilt and remorse.
My heart is also filled with sorrow and unbearable grief.
With his handsome looks, privileged background, and outstanding abilities, countless girls in the department secretly harbored feelings for him.
If he hadn't met her, perhaps his premarital life and love would have been even better.
Qiao Xingjia reached out and gently touched the man's cheek.
Qin Yancheng's eyes lit up, and he took her hand in his large hand, pressing her palm tightly against his face.
Her palms were ice cold.
"Xingxing, I was wrong. I shouldn't have yelled at you. I shouldn't have called Mom over. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me."
"Qin Yancheng, have you ever thought that if you hadn't met me, you would be happier than you are now?"
"No," Qin Yancheng said firmly, "There are no 'ifs.' I don't need to meet other women, I only want you, Xingxing. I know I haven't done enough, I know I've hurt and disappointed you, but please, give me another chance, don't leave me, okay?"
Qiao Xingjia's eyelashes trembled, and tears fell silently.
After a long pause, her pale lips moved. "Okay, I won't leave."
Qin Yancheng was overjoyed and opened his arms to hug her.
Qiao Xingjia closed her eyes, letting her exhausted body collapse completely onto the man.
Qin Yancheng was taken aback.
Qiao Xingjia's body was very hot.
He quickly released Qiao Xingjia, reached out and touched her forehead, his expression changing, "You have a fever."
Qiao Xingjia was very tired, her eyelids were heavy and she couldn't keep them open, so she simply let herself fall asleep.
Qin Yancheng picked her up and quickly walked out of the lounge.
…
The black Land Rover wound its way up the mountainside; the road was narrow, and it drove very slowly.
Finally, we reached the halfway point of the mountain.
The Land Rover was parked in front of the villa designated by Qi Mingxuan.
This place is too remote.
The villa looked like it had been abandoned for a long time; the weeds in the yard had grown to half a meter high.
It was getting dark, and it was raining.
The windshield wipers were swinging.
Tan Yiyi gripped the steering wheel and looked out through the windshield. The deserted villa looked somewhat eerie.
"Ah Shu, are you sure this is the place?" Tan Yiyi swallowed hard. "She invited you to talk here? Are you sure she's not trying to kill you to cover it up?"
